No. 2 Syracuse beats Rutgers 74-64
PISCATAWAY, N.J. – C.J. Fair scored a career-high 21 points and Scoop Jardine added 17, including a dagger 3-pointer with 1:11 to play, as No. 2 Syracuse escaped another close one with a 74-64 victory over Rutgers on Sunday.
The Orange (27-1, 14-1) improved their lead in the Big East standings to 2 1-2 games over No. 12 Marquette and No. 23 Notre Dame. They won two of their last three games by three points or less and this one looked to be going the same way.
The Scarlet Knights (12-15, 4-10) beat two Top Ten teams this season at home — Florida and Connecticut — and they were right there with the Orange, who have won 12 straight games in the series.
Gilvydas Biruta matched his career-high with 21 points for Rutgers, which was within two points four times from the 8:45 mark until there was 3:08 to play.
The Scarlet Knights couldn't tie the game or take the lead on seven possessions with the two-point deficit.
The last time they got that close was 64-62 with 3:08 left.
Jardine, who had seven assists, hit a jumper 25 seconds later to make it a four-point game. Rutgers turned the ball over and then got a break when Dion Waiters missed two free throws with 1:54 to go.
Eli Carter missed a 3-point attempt for Rutgers and after a timeout by Syracuse, Jardine drilled a 3 from the head of the key with 1:11 left and the Orange had a 69-62 lead.
Kris Joseph added 14 points for Syracuse, which was 24 for 48 from the field, including 5 of 12 on 3s. The Orange had a big advantage at the free throw line, going 21 of 31 to Rutgers' 9 of 11.
Mike Poole had 10 points — eight in the final 9:19 — for the Scarlet Knights, who shot 41.9 percent (26 for 62) but made just 3 of 18 3-point attempts.
Syracuse has won seven straight — including the close wins over No. 10 Georgetown and No. 19 Louisville — since the loss at Notre Dame. Rutgers has dropped five straight and seven of eight.
Syracuse closed the first half on an 8-2 run to take a 40-34 lead.
Biruta, a 6-foot-8 sophomore, came into the game averaging 9.3 points. He had that many 8 1-2 minutes into the game, taking advantage of moving the ball down low against Syracuse's famed 2-3 zone. He was 6 of 9 from the field for 14 points and had five of Rutgers' 17 rebounds as the Scarlet Knights managed a 17-13 advantage off the boards in the first half.
Biruta broke double figures just once in his last 12 games.

|varies depending on the event
In 2016 we didn't host any due to mid-season arrival of baby #2, but we've had watch parties with updwards of 20 people for super bowls in the past. Usually 3-5 mgobloggers show up sometimes alone sometimes with kids/significant others in tow, so there will be between 5 and 10 people on average usually. Biggest Michigan game party we had was 2015 MSU when there was maybe 18 people total including kids. Biggest event ever at our house was our eldest's first birthday party when we had 30+ people.

|that's how its pronounced
The pronunciation of my last name rhymes with Spanish for balls, so yeah I've had to deal with nicknames & mockery from that since like 3rd grade or so. Helps with picking baby names though, get to eliminate any that would go badly with it like Harry, Richard, etc.

|Feels that way sometimes
From all the way downtown yeah it's like 40+ miles. It's not so bad once you clear O'Hare though, you'll be able to go 75+ on the highway the whole way from there.

|So many good places
For skiers: atop Ridge Run at Heavenly in Lake Tahoe is majestic. One side of the ridge is the lake ringed by mountains reflecting on the water. Other side is the desert as far as the eye can see.
Corfu in Greece & Amalfi in Italy were gorgeous.
Yellowstone, Bryce Canyon, & Zion National Park are all amazing, especially the angel's landing in Zion shown earlier by Ron Utah in this thread
The view from atop Diamondhead in Oahu is worth the hike up
There's some really amazing places in the Philippines too but their names escape me right now.

|My cool story bro moment
The columnist in question, Steve Rosenbloom, used to live across the street from me. I used to babysit his kids when I was younger.
He's definitely a sarcastic guy & he was not fond of Lovie so I'm not surprised by his take on this hire at all. That said, I think U of I couldn't have done a better job with this hire, even if the AD's method of firing Cubit was beyond tone deaf.

I'm in the town of Gilberts, which is about 40 miles from downtown. You have to take I-90, its about 15 miles past Woodfield Mall to the exit for where I live. I only give out my address out via email for privacy reasons, I dont want to suddenly get a flood of junkmail by putting it in a public forum.
I just realized that info was missing after a few people reached out to me that are actually in the city. Maybe you guys would want to carpool?

|Soft spot for Four Christmases
Its not one of the best ones out there, but I kind of like the Vince Vaughn/Reese witherspoon "Four Christmases." My parents are divorced, so we have to rotate the holidays between 3 families (thankfully my wife's parents are married) plus do our own Christmas, so that one I can totally identify with.
Otherwise, Elf, Die Hard, and Home Alone would be my faves. Gotta love A Charlie Brown Christmas too.

It'd be nice if he can get Maryland good enough to beat OSU and MSU every now and then. As long as he never beats us. Best of luck to him in the future, hope his replacement is good too, but lasts a little longer.

If by a miracle PSU wins and we're in the conference title game, I might do another one of these next week, and also depending on the bowl game situation I might do one for that too. I'll keep you posted!

|its still a go
probably will be a smaller crowd than the MSU one due to the holiday weekend - several guests from last time have said no. Right now we're at 5 people & counting, still waiting to hear from a few others.

But Ford SA has recognised that these same graduates will, within the foreseeable future, be professionals looking to buy upmarket vehicles and, if the car in which they started their working lives wore a blue oval badge, there's a good chance they'll go back there for an expensive new car.
So it has launched a new programme that gives eligible graduates - basically anybody with a recognised tertiary qualification - a five percent discount on the price of a new Ford, plus a slightly lower interest rate than they'd usually qualify for with their credit profile.
"We know how important education is to the economic and social fabric of the country," said Ford Credit SA managing director Steve Fraser, "and we know students have to overcome many obstacles and financial pressures to earn their degrees. "So we're rewarding the hard work and dedication required to obtain a university degree by helping graduates to get started in their professional careers."

It's inside of my house.
I tried to make it unrecognizable ...
although I don't think I succeeded in doing that!
I've ordered a piece of fabric which should arrive any day.
This is an idea I've had for a long time.
Thanks for the push!
I give up! Cannot imagine what this is, but I do love the lines, texture, and color. Looking forward to your version.ReplyDelete
is it wood flooring? or apart of a wooden chair? love the COLOR!ReplyDelete
I love the texture of this one. I am still trying to find the perfect photo. I keep taking them, but then rejecting them. Of course, being on vacation hasn't helped. Maybe I should look at some of the photos I took today. Hmmm.ReplyDelete
Interesting! I think you DID succeed in making it unrecognizable. I can't tell what it is! Part of a woven basket, maybe? Can't wait to see the fabric you're talking about . . .ReplyDelete

Hi there, I was wondering if there is any plans for the future or this will be always private? I liked how before I was able to see the people who joined the server. It would be nice to see the server online player count,
Server plaver count?
@Pixeldistortion This is something I want too. However, they said they won't be doing it because it caused problems. The two problems that I know of would be knowing what you can get away with on a PVP server if it were barely populated and that when choosing a server, people may choose one based on the population instead of their desire for settings/options.
Although, on non PVP servers, once you reach say, Large Dominium status, it would be great if it would display the user count - by then it wouldn't matter to you what number it was.

Awareness is not just created by making people go by the rule but the recall value at different situations increases manifold when a visual is created in front of our eyes.

Still feeling left out and separated, but it does n't really matter…
I've realized that I talk to myself about things from both sides of my brain, combatting each position with each other. I tried to receive counseling, therapy, or just someone to talk to about this and the things that irk me about life. My life, like pretty much everything I encounter, just forces me to exude through it. I keep wondering when all the sacrifice will pay off. Still, just about two hours a week, workouts every day, and no sex or social life. The only people I typically see, I force away because of their negativity. It's a miracle that I have n't hurt myself or someone else. It really feels at times like life hates me.
Then I force my self to remember that situations could always be worse than they appear or are. I figured that out after events turned me toward the darkest moment in my life. It was as if life displayed it's best hand at revealing that we're destined for fall, in return for my best version of: what now?
My body is not allowing me to add new women to empower, but the attractive ones are moving differently around me. A women I would've indeed 'encountered' purposefully allowed me to get at her, after it was obvious I already could've. Still, after everything that's occurred with me, along with what I know and see, I can't go after them. So, see? I'm f***** either way. At least I don't have to deal with the dreary that always accompanies me if I jerk off. I swear, I'm the only guy who goes through this. If I am, when does the reward for this s**** happen. I don't know. Who cares…?
There's a lot to do. No one to do it except me. This is all the price I pay for struggle & unknown.

Tu Fu
Tu Fu do͞o fo͞o [key], 712–70, Chinese poet. In Pinyin, his name is romanized as Du Fu. Tu Fu is often considered the greatest of Chinese poets. He did not pass the imperial civil service examinations and, although he held a few official positions for brief periods, he spent many poverty-stricken years as a wanderer. His poetry expresses his bitterness concerning his life. It laments the corruption and cruelty that prevailed at court and the sufferings of the poor. Tu Fu's work is pervaded by an ironic awareness of spiritual and social decay, yet maintains humor and a sense of hope. His autobiography was translated (1929–34) by Florence Ayscough.
See biographies by W. Hung (2 vol., 1952) and A. R. Davis (1971) Li Po and Tu Fu, ed. and tr. by A. Cooper (1973).

Friday September 28, 2012
Glee actress Lea Michele said she was stunned when she was asked to front a L'Oreal campaign.
She revealed that she was so shocked because she is not a "typical beauty".
Lea, 26, said: "It's so amazing for me because I'm from New York and growing up I was never really considered the typical beauty, so the fact that I'm now the face of such an incredible company and brand is so awesome.
"That they would look at me and consider me is unbelievable."
The star also chatted about her role in Glee, and her love for the show focussing on "inner beauty".
She said: "I'm on the fourth season of my television show which is probably the most near and dear (to me). I'm so happy on the show. I love it so much.
"The fact that we are going into a fourth season so strong is really awesome. I really think that it's been such a blessing to be on a TV show that portrays inner beauty as well as external beauty."
Lea is also dating her co-star Cory Monteith, who plays Finn in the award-winning series.

Recycled Lamb Moving Sale Today!
Recycled Lamb in Lakewood is moving across the street tomorrow. 25 years in one place, and their big move is across the street? Well, it makes sense to the lovely ladies who run the shop, so why not?
Ordinarily RL is one of the few local fiber shops open on Sundays, but they are closed tomorrow for the Big Move/Great Yarn-Over. Today they are having sales to limit the amount of hauling they have to do. Sales on weaving yarn, as well as discontinued yarns and some pattern books are 30% . I know where I'm headed later today.
I was just there last weekend, seeking out Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool in lavender and gray for a baby hat. I'm going to attempt a version of the "Sweet Hex Child's Hood" by Lisa Shroyer.
This pattern involves something called a steek, where you cut apart your knitting. What? Of course I am terrified of the idea of cutting apart my knitting, so I am attempting to redesign the hat so I can knit it flat with no cutting. And I'm changing out the design, so I can use something from the fabulous Icelandic Book instead. As opposed to just following the pattern As Written by the person who actually knows what they are doing.
Current Audiobook: The Magicians by Lev Grossman
Currently Reading: Anyone want to explain to me why I felt compelled to purchase a paperback copy of Conversational Japanese at the thrift store this morning? In my dreams someday I'd like to visit the Miho Museum, but seriously have no plans to make that happen. So why purchase the book? There's probably an interesting psychological study in that; what do the books we purchase say about us?

England riots: The YouTube mugging that shocked Britain
Two men posing as Good Samaritans have been convicted of robbing a Malaysian student who had been attacked and had his jaw broken during last year's riots. The whole incident was captured on CCTV.
The shaky video footage is less than 30 seconds long, but captures one of the most notorious and memorable incidents of last August's riots.
It begins with a group of apparently sympathetic youths helping a bleeding mugging victim to his feet - a moment of tenderness amid the waves of violence that hit England's towns and cities.
But what happens next is far from an act of kindness.
As the dazed young man makes an attempt to stagger to his feet, the apparent good Samaritans lean in, open his rucksack, and take his belongings.
But what the attackers do not realise is that the entire incident has been caught on camera.
'Moral vacuum'
The video was soon posted on file-sharing site YouTube, and rapidly seen by millions of people worldwide.
What followed was a wave of repulsion, and the prime minister held up the incident as a powerful symbol of "Broken Britain".
"When we see the disgusting sight of an injured young man with people pretending to help him while they are robbing him, it is clear there are things that are badly wrong in our society," said David Cameron.
The 8 August attack in Barking, east London, made global headlines and became one of the defining images of the disorder.
Giles Fraser, the then canon chancellor of St Paul's Cathedral, said the video had a powerful effect because it encapsulated the "moral vacuum that was at the heart of the unrest".
A hunt to track down the victim - and his assailants - began, and slowly, more details emerged.
The injured teenager was revealed as 20-year-old Malaysian student Ashraf Hazier Rossli, who had only recently arrived in Britain.
He was on his way to buy food to break his Ramadan fast when he became caught up in the riots.
He was set upon by Beau Isagba, 17, who broke his jaw in two places and knocked him off his bicycle.
As he sat dazed and in a pool of blood the youths seen in the video gathered around him.
Reece Donovan, 22, and John Kafunda, 22, took his mobile phone, wallet and a Sony games console with a number of games.
Mr Rossli later told their trial: "I was sat on the pavement with blood pouring from my mouth. I remember being approached by a male who asked if I was okay. I remember being pulled to my feet, then I felt someone tugging at my rucksack.
"I was not in a position to defend myself and was still suffering from the effects of being hit. I knew they were stealing from me but I could do nothing."
Caught red-handed
Donovan and Kafunda were caught red-handed on the CCTV footage but both swore blind it was not them.
Kafunda told police he was "a million per cent sure" he was not the man in the film seen talking to Mr Rossli while his accomplice rifles his rucksack.
"If that was me I would physically stop them but that isn't me there," he told detectives who confronted him with the video evidence.
The jury did not believe him and both Kafunda and Donovan were convicted of robbery and violent disorder. Donovan was also found guilty of burglary from Tesco in Barking on the same day.
They are due to be sentenced next month, as is Isagba, who was convicted of inflicting grievous bodily harm and stealing Mr Rossli's bike.
Mr Rossli was taken to the Royal London Hospital and after treatment for his injuries the magnanimity of what he had to say appeared a world away from the actions of his mean-spirited attackers.
The shaken finance student, from Kuala Lumpur, told reporters at a press conference: "I feel very sorry for the people who did this.
"It was really sad because among them were children."
As Mr Rossli was roundly praised for his positive attitude, a huge internet campaign was launched to support him.
In the days that followed a site namedLet's Do Something Nice For Ashrafwas set up, along with countless Facebook groups, and messages from well-wishers poured in.
A message on the original site now simply states the incident was a "shameful way for a guest in our country to be treated" and says thousands of people have donated to the cause.
More than £22,000 was raised for Mr Rossli but he pledged to give away half of that sum to other victims of the violence.
Front-page news
He was later named as one of10 Heroes of the London Riotsby Time magazine.
After the verdict, Chief Supt Gary Buttercase, temporary borough commander at Barking and Dagenham, described Mr Rossli as "a man of humility and dignity and a tremendous credit to his country".
"I am particularly pleased that we have managed to get justice for the appalling attack he suffered and the subsequent theft that has attracted derision from across the world," he added.
Rahimy Abd Rahim, of the Malaysian Star newspaper, the first news organisation to track down Mr Rossli, said there had been extensive coverage of the riots in his country.
The reporter said Mr Rossli's story appeared on the front page of every national newspaper and he became a "local hero".
Despite the adverse coverage, Mr Rahim said he did not believe the attack had altered Malaysia's view of Britain, which is a popular place to study for Malaysians. There are about 12,500 Malaysian students in the UK; about 4,000 of them government-sponsored.
"I don't believe that the UK's image has been tainted since the attack. It was clearly an isolated case," he said.
"Malaysians will continue to visit and study in the UK despite the incident."

As you may have heard, as of October 17th Amelia and I are both changing our last name to Birch, and for the first time in my life I'm faced with an option: do I want a middle name? Being as interested as I am in naming conventions, it seems like an opportunity in self-identification way too fantastic to pass up; but it does also bring up this question of choosing said middle name.
Since I'm giving up Brandt, my connection to my Jewish/Yiddish heritage, I've been thinking about...something I don't know how to write, which is indeed the main point of this post, so just pretend for the moment that there's a name here...almost since the inception of discussion about this whole Birch idea. This is my paternal grandfather's original Yiddish name, before he gave it up to avoid persecution in post-WWII Poland, and also the name of his uncle who protected him and helped him survive in hiding during the Holocaust and was killed in Russian-German crossfire in the war's final days. It's a good name, and it makes me feel proud to imagine carrying it around with me.
So that's not the problem; no, the problem is one of spelling. In various systems of transliteration, the name is as follows:
[ˈɡɛɾʃən] or [ˈɡɛɾʃn̩] - IPA
[`gErS@n] or [`gErS=n] - SAMPA
[gārshŭn] - American dictionary phonetics
[GAIR-shin] - Phrasebook English
I just discovered this afternoon that this is actually a Biblical name, and as such in English is generally spelled Gershon (from Hebrew גרשון, "gršun" in transliteration). When my grandfather learned to write, though, he was taught to spell his name גערשן, "geršn," which represents the way it's actually pronounced in Yiddish (Yiddish, unlike Hebrew, uses a phonemic writing system). Now, if I were going to transcribe the Yiddish גערשן into English, the standard system would give me Gershn. And just to throw some further confusion into the mix: since we're talking about Polish Jews, another possibility is the standard Polish transliteration of this name: Gerszon.
So which should it be? Gershon, as the English (and even the educated Yiddish) print standard? Or Gershn as representative of the way it was apparently written in the community of farmers in Eastern Poland to whom I'm paying homage in adopting this name? Or something else? Any input would be very much appreciated.

Hello My Smitten's
Today for my Throwback I have a shiny mani :)
Emma RaeNae <3
My co-worker gave me this Layla polish for my birthday. What an AWESOME Birthday gift.
I used Layla Mirror Effect's Metal Chrome and China Glaze's Ray-Diant.
What I learned about this Layla polish is that it is thick in a good kind of way. It only requires one brush stroke. If you go over an area more than once it streaks. Then it looks Horrible!!! This was my first application so I did not know that. Now I know, do not go over an area twice and you must let it dry for at least 3 mintues before you apply a second coat. As for Ray-Diant, all glitter polishes are thick as fudge to me!!!
So let me tell you about this Mani. I always admired the women who change their polish everyday, or change their polish to match an outfit, or who has a long day at work then go home and polish their nails. I am none of those women but my nails were looking HORRID so i decided to polish after a 12 hour shift. Are you kidding me? I was terribly tired. My eyes kept shutting as I was polishing so I stood up for the duration of my Mani. No joke, I stood up like they make you do in grade school when you are falling asleep lol. I threw that Nubar top coat on my nails and collapsed into bed. All Hail Nubar because my nails did not smudge!!!
Do you have any Layla polishes? Do you have any polish tricks or tips? What top coat do you use?

Army Weekend
April 4, 2011
This weekend I got absolutely no writing accomplished… in fact I did not even bring my laptop to Army this weekend because I knew after just one day I would be dead to the world. We had our first PT (Physical Training) test for the year on Saturday and let me tell you, I can still barley move my arms. I am glad the weekend is over because I never feel like I get anything accomplished on Army Weekends.
That said I plan on making up for it during this week because now that my seasonal job is done at the tanning salon, I have this week to take a break from everything and just read and write. AKA: BEST WEEK EVER. I hope everyone's weekends were grand and that people plan on getting things done this week!!! Oh and sorry for such a lame post but I am tired and like I said can barley move my body parts!

Not too bad, but I prefer the version with Jack Lemmon and S
Matt Tawesson | Macomb, IL, USA | 03/14/2010
(4 out of 5 stars)
"In 1970, this film came out with Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis as the title characters. Nineteen years later, here is a remake, with Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn playing the title characters. This remake from '99 was not bad (I rented it from Netflix), and Martin and Hawn were funny (I thought they were wonderful, and they are excellent actors), and this version was funny in general, but I felt that it wouldn't hold a candle to the 1970 movie. Martin and Hawn's characters go through similar mishaps like the characters from the original, but there are a few twists to the remake: the hotel manager is secretly seen wearing a woman's sable fur coat and a freaky looking cap while dancing and lip-syncing to the Donna Summer hit, Bad Girls, a vicious dog that lives in an apartment goes charging after the couple, to where the couple mistakenly walk into a group therapy meeting overhearing a man talk about masturbation, etc. Sure, this '99 version is funny to a degree, but I think the Lemmon and Dennis version from '70 is funnier. I feel that when a certain movie is remade years later after an original, the remake probably won't be as popular and maybe not well-received as the original was. If it is good or funny, again, it won't have as much humor as the original. For me, I prefer the original."

J. Rosamond Johnson
J. Rosamond Johnson (1873-1954), an exponent of distinctively Black* music, was born in Jacksonville, Florida. He received a thorough musical education at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. Over the years, he pursued an interesting and unusual career as he used his formal training in music to develop a distinctive form Negro* music. Reaching the age of maturity when ragtime was becoming popular in America, Johnson became a composer-producer of vaudeville shows. He rose rapidly from a partnership with the comedian Robert Cole to directing successful musical comedies. For a short period he was director of music for the Music School Settlement of New York, but the lure of the theater caused him to return to the vaudeville stage.
His musical comedy The Red Moon is remembered for one of its hit songs, "Wrap Me in Your Little Red Shawl." Johnson collaborated with his brother James Weldon by setting his poetry to music; one of the most outstanding works of the two is "Lift Every Voice and Sing," long considered the Negro* national hymn. Songs written by Cole and Johnson for Klaw and Erlanger, producers of musical extravaganzas in New York City, were "Under the Bamboo Tree," "The Congo Love Song," "Nobody's Looking But the Owl and the Moon" and "My Castle on the Nile."
Johnson went abroad in 1913 to direct a musical comedy at the Hammerstein Opera House in London Palladium in a new musical comedy.
Returning to America, he worked at the Music School Settlement but soon returned to the stage with the "Rosamond Johnson Quintet." In 1925, he arranged the music for his brother's collection The Book of American Negro Spirituals.

The experience and knowledge of grandmothers and grandfathers can be an invaluable resource when raising a child, and encouraging their involvement is an important part of developing support for your decision to breastfeed.
Grandmothers and Grandfathers are an important source of support for new mothers and families. Their own personal experiences and knowledge with infant feeding can influence mothers' decisions to begin breastfeeding and to keep it going.
The reality is that many of today's grandmothers may not have breastfed. Often they are unfamiliar with baby care that does not include bottle feeding of formula. Before baby is born, you can discuss your plan to breastfeed and encourage their support. Suggest that before or after the birth, you attend a breastfeeding support group together. Provide them with information about breastfeeding and suggest that they speak to others who have breastfed or who have family that breastfed. Let them know that you value their support and suggest other ways that they can be involved in baby care such as changing diapers, cuddling with baby, taking baby for a walk, or soothing baby when she is fussy.
To help further the involvement of grandparents in your choice to breastfeed, we occasionally host events catered to them. Please visit our Events section for future dates.

The mother of a 15-year-old boy who was bullied at a Victorian high school is suing the state's Department of Education and Early Childhood Development for failing to protect her son.
Cathilee Whitmore believes the government should pay for her son's ongoing counselling, after he suffered more than two years of homophobic bullying.
Her son Nathan told 9NEWS he was hit with a skateboard and verbally abused by some of his classmates at Somerville Secondary College.
"He'd call me a faggot, a dropkick, a loser," he said.
"He told me sometimes on a regular basis to kill myself and he also told me that I'm not worth living.
"He belted me with a skateboard."
Ms Whitmore said Nathan had been heavily affected by the bullying.
"I love my son and I've seen him go from who he was to who he is now," she said.
"It has changed who he is, it has affected our entire family."
She has claimed both the school and the Education Department have ignored her pleas for help, leading to her decision to take legal action.
"The school completely lacked their duty of care with Nathan," Ms Whitmore said.
Education Minister James Merlino said he would investigate the matter.
"In this particular incidence I've asked the department to report back to me as a matter of urgency," he said.
Nathan has also launched a petition calling for the government not only to pay for his ongoing counselling, but also for that of all victims of other schoolyard bullying victims.
"For my future I want other kids like me who are both homophobically bullied, and bullied in general, to know that there is support available and that the school will deal with it," he said.
The petition has been published on change.org.

About Seasonal Allergies
According to Eastern Medicine, seasonal allergies are created by wind affecting the body. This is why most seasonal allergies occur in the windy seasons of Spring and Fall. This weakens the immune system.
I have had severe seasonal allergies. After just one session with Alex, I felt a lot better.
Our immune systems are also stressed when we come into contact with allergens. In Eastern Medicine our immune systems are related to Qi, the body's energy, life force or defense mechanism. When there is an imbalance in our body's Qi, we develop symptoms like allergies.
According to Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, approximately 40 million Americans suffer from seasonal allergies and the cost of standard allergy medications is $5.7 billion per year.
Alternative medicine has an effective, affordable solution. With acupuncture and Chinese herbs, you can prevent allergies from ever starting.
If you have seasonal allergies, it is important to begin treatment approximately one month prior to onset of symptoms. When patients begin acupuncture for allergies along with the proper herbs & nutrition before symptoms start, our program allows 90-100% of symptoms to be prevented.
Give us a month and your allergies could be completely eliminated.
Book your appointment online today or contact us if you have any questions.
To learn more about how nutrition and acupuncture can work together to treat allergies and more, watch our new video:
I have suffered from severe seasonal allergies- and the nasty side effects of over-the-counter allergy medication- for many years. I went through several years of weekly allergy shots, which offered no symptom relief- there was no end in sight as to the number of treatments I'd need before ever experiencing relief. I finally turned to acupuncture. Lisa and Alex treated me both before and during allergy season- I always experience immediate and total relief! Acupuncture treatments are relaxing and restorative too- an added bonus.

Skip to comments.Boehner: Obamacare Is The Law Of The Land
Posted on 11/08/2012 2:46:03 PM PST by ConservativeMan55
click here to read article
Not so fast! (as Lee Corso says) The various states can still scuttle Obamacare. The Tenth Amendment Center (tends to be very libertarian) states that we can nullify Obamacare with the help of our governors and state legislators. There is still hope!
Since she and her family were destroyed by the media when they realized she had the guts to call them out as no other, we haven't seem many examples of a John Wayne standing up for our side now, have we?
Mitt Romney was a nice guy going up against the bad asses of the left. Had to fail, as did McCain and Dole before. Clinton was a bad ass, wasn't he? Anyway, that's my take on the most recent election.
The closest thing to a bad ass that we had on our side was Clint Eastwood, at age 80, shoving Obama's head in the toilet and flushing it, figuratively of course, with his 'empty chair' routine. I can't help but think many women would still find Clint sexy for having the guts to do what he did. And would have had no problem voting for him too.
By now, you may have figured that I'm convinced we'll have four more years of crap sandwiches served daily until we find someone on our side with the guts to stuff the faces of the left into the cow pie that is the reality they have created. Till then, keep those leach lines clear- somebody in Rio Linda's got a well to fill.
He could simply point out that, while ObamaCare may be the Law of the Land, the Republic simply cannot afford it, and therefore, the House does not see fit to appropriate the funds to implement it (15,000 extra IRS agents pound sand, add to recession jobless claims, LOL). Pass it on a party line vote, and there's no appeal.
Next Monday, I will be seeing my doc of 20 years for the last time.
He's retiring, and I can't say that I blame him.
Thankfully, I don't have any health issues, but we are looking into Costa Rica as an alternative.
They had single payer for a while, but they were smart. They figured out it didn't work, and have privatized health care now.
So, fork over a few bucks, take your trophy wife to Costa Rica, and have a nice vaca while you're there.
Pass this along to her doc. ;o)
"About a month before the election, my wife went in to see her cardiologist. She told the doctor that they should maybe hurry up the valve job on her heart as she is 71 and probably wouldn't make it past the death squad review."
Push the doctor and get the surgery done before the end of the year.
As you know, my trophy wife and I have been getting "restored" after the great health care plan was shoved down our throats and up the opposite end by Pelosi, Reid and Obozo.
I have had my cataracts cut out and replaced and a knee got its 100,000 mile repair job. My wife had a severe gi op last year and is having a 100,000 mile repair job on a wrist. I will be asking/suggesting to her to get her cataracts cut out and replaced.

A broken voting system
The UK's First Past the Post (FPTP) does not translate party's vote share (their total votes as a % of all votes) into seats because if you vote for a loser, your vote effectively counts for nothing both within your constituency and nationally. FPTP simply elects whoever gained the most votes whether that person won by 0.01% or by a landslide. Thus a party with many constituency candidates running a close race but coming 2nd has cause to feel there is a democratic deficit.
Alternative Vote (AV) would give 'losing' voters a voice with secondary preferences for example the London mayoral election system
In 2012 voters received a 2nd option if their 1st choice candidate was eliminated by not reaching the criteria. Their 2nd choices are then redistributed in the 2nd round if that choice was one of the remaining candidates who met the criteria.
Proportional Representation (PR) simply attempts to align % of seats allocated to % of vote share for each party so that there at least national recognition for voters who do not win at constituency level.

Take a look the NYO season calendar of events. Attend a concert, sign up for an audition or visit us for an open rehearsal.
San Diego Youth Orchestra NYO "Training Its Best". Not just a quality neighborhood music school, but one of America's top music schools. Learn more about our four level orchestra and band training program.
2018-2019 Season auditions are coming up this June. This is your final opportunity to get in for next season and save some money!! Read more about the NYO Early Bird Auditions
Watch the NYO concert highlights. The NYO program ensemble line up include San Diego Premier Symphony (00:00 - 01:45), San Diego Select Winds (1:46 - 3:46), Elite Symphony (03:47 - 05:04), Junior Elite Symphony (05:06 - 06:30), Concert Band (06:31 - 08:12) & Orchestra 1 (08:13 - 09:27).
Graduated from Waldorf School of San Diego High School - Attending Eastman School of Music & University of Rochester (Howard Hanson Scholarship)
"At NYO I was really lucky to be surrounded with highly qualified faculty who were always there for me and pushed me to become the best musician and leader I could be.
NYO has helped me understand what it means to play with a high standard of quality, and given me the tools to reach that standard. It has also made me have a much deeper understanding of chamber music and taught me how to rehearse effectively so as to get the most out of every coaching session.
The artistic staff are not only some of the best musicians in San Diego, but also just great people. I enjoy working with all of them and wouldn't hesitate to call them my friends. Aside from the high quality coachings in chamber, orchestra, and sectionals, I have also found that I have learned a lot just through talking with the faculty. I have gotten a lot of interesting and valuable information about what the music world is like and what being a professional musician really entails."
Graduated from Del Norte High School - Attending Duke University
"The conductor, John Ramirez, is a very informative and patient instructor who will efficiently teach how to make the best possible result in musicality of the orchestra. The wind coach, Peter Dayeh, was also very knowledgeable in helping improve upon technique and phrasing of passages.
I would say to definitely give NYO a try, as the small ensembles truly provide opportunities to be looked at on a more personal and individual basis. The training is specific to each individual, and really nurtures the growth of every participant."
Graduated from Canyon Crest Academy - Attending Texas A&M University (honors program)
"They're amazing!! Unlike other orchestras I've been in, the conductors and coaches are very talented and down- to-earth, so I was able to very easily learn from their careful instruction.
NYO is absolutely the best orchestra in the area. It's a much more personable experience than with other orchestras (the staff actually know my name!!), and the instruction you get comes from world-class musicians and teachers. Also, the community in NYO is unlike any other. Some of my friends I've met through NYO are my closest friends, and they are some of the only people I plan to keep in touch with after high school! It is simultaneously extremely disciplined and extremely artistic. NYO taught me the value of hard work and passion in a way that you really don't get in a traditional classroom setting."
Graduated from Coronado High School - Attending The Boston Conservatory
"Throughout my training at NYO, it seemed that every week I was challenged in a new way. The NYO training program has created a nurturing environment where we all wanted each other to succeed. I realized early on that it was not just about me and my playing only, but rather that I had to be good at playing well with others.
I have grown so much as team-working musician from NYO. There are a lot of things that you can only learn from playing in a good organization, that you can't learn on your own in solo practice.
Mario and John Ramirez worked very hard to give me as many possible opportunities at NYO. I played in a chamber group with strings, I performed a trombone concerto with the wind ensemble, and much more."
Graduated from Torrey Pines High School - Attending San Diego State University
"NYO is a close family of musicians which allow for connections to be made across the orchestra. The training provided is custom to each ensemble, working to improve not only the strongest player--but also the weakest. Performance opportunities allow growing musicians to explore the big stage as well as the smaller more intimate stages, such as with the biannual chamber concerts. Auditions allow for musicians to test themselves and their own comfort zones, as well as learn important excerpts and pieces that will follow them into the professional world. Overall, NYO has provided a positive experience that was not overwhelming and allowed me to grow.
The repertoire was nothing like anything I had seen before. It was challenging, interesting, and ultimately unknown. Within other ensembles, most pieces were familiar; however, NYO allowed me to expand my horizons and expose me to a wide variety of composers and styles. The exposure to these pieces introduced me to different keys, different shades of similar composers, the historical context behind pieces, and the different colors which each should take on. Additionally, the small size allows a form of comfort in rehearsing and provides a strong support system which is difficult to achieve in other ensembles where many members may remain unknown."
Graduated from Canyon Crest Academy - Attending California Maritime Academy
"In NYO's relaxed learning environment, I performed at the highest level alongside members who are passionate and friendly people. I developed skills on how to become a much better musician, like following the conductor's pulse and more. The incredible artistic staff were always helpful and positive, constantly offering assistance and showing different ways to attack specific passages.
I definitely recommend NYO for those who want a fresh take on the stagnant SDYS."

Why should a young music student sign up in an extra curricular orchestra or wind ensemble outside of school?
NYO New Youth Orchestra Program is a destination for young talented musicians who seek to perform with an ensemble that will challenge their musical abilities, while being surrounded by like minded individuals. NYO allows these ambitious students to be placed into an orchestra or band that suits their level of performance as they are given the highest level ensemble training.
How do I know to either sign up for an orchestra and wind Ensemble?
Wind ensembles include the flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, tuba, trombone, trumpet, french horn and saxophone. An orchestra consist of string instruments including violin, viola, cello and string bass as well as the wind instruments but excluding the saxophone. All string players will be placed into an orchestra depending on the level of each performer. Wind players will mostly be placed into the wind ensembles, except for the more experienced players who have the refined technical skills to blend into the orchestra ensembles.
Can a complete beginner enter one of the ensembles?
We do not provide ensemble training for complete beginners. We require each member to be playing and receiving private instruction for a minimum of one year before we can consider them for an audition in the lower intermediate level orchestra or wind ensemble.
Is there a need to have previous ensemble experience?
Ensemble experience is required for most ensembles except for the beginning level Orchestra 1 and Concert Band.
Does a student member need to be taking private lessons in order be in NYO?
Yes. The members in our organization are very serious about learning music. As we provide an experience that challenges our members from week to week, lessons are the one thing that will allow everyone to keep up with our pace.
Are there performance opportunities during the year?
NYO holds two concert events throughout the season, one in mid-January and one early June.
Are there auditions?
Every continuing member and new member is required to have a 10-12 minute audition before the season starts, this provides the information we need to place each individual in the correct ensemble. It is the most important step we have as a teaching organization in order to maintain quality ensembles as well as creating an environment where the level of performance can increase dramatically on a weekly bases.
How do I know what ensemble to select for auditions?
Your private music teacher can look at the programs page. As well, the "concert highlight video" can help determine the correct level for the student.
How much is the yearly tuition and what do I get for it?
The New Youth Orchestra Organization strives to provide the highest quality music education program for the lowest possible cost to the musicians' families. The yearly continuing member tuition of $750 includes: Auditions, registration, all rehearsals and instruction, music use, and enrollment into any additional NYO ensemble within the same "Ensemble Group" upon acceptance. $50 family discounts are offered.
Each season we regularly offer special tuition where new members can save $250.
What days and times are the rehearsals scheduled?
Weekly rehearsals are held every Saturday starting the first week of September until the last week of May. There are two semesters per yearly season and around 15 rehearsals per semester. We take days off throughout the year including Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, Mid Season Break & Spring Break. Please visit 2018-2019 season calendar page
Where are the rehearsals held?
The San Diego Youth Orchestra Event Venue 10855 Sorrento Valley Rd. #2-C is a convenient drive from all coastal and inland north county communities. To get to the NYO New Youth Orchestra rehearsal facility, use the freeway exit nearest to the 805/5 junction in Sorrento Valley.
Is it required that members attend every rehearsal, are there set policies?
Consistent attendance is necessary for the development of a quality musical experience. Musicians are granted no more than 3 absences per semester. This includes any absence, such as illness, school or other music activities, family vacation, homework and tests, college visits, religious holidays, etc.. Concert performances are mandatory for all members, failure to participate in the concerts are grounds for dismissal from the NYO program.
What are the other learning or performance opportunities open to NYO members?
There's a yearly multi- level solo competition open to all ensembles and levels, chamber music program for high intermediate and advanced level performers.
How are NYO student members challenged and kept interested through out the year?
As each NYO ensemble advances at a rapid pace, our conductors are continually adjusting the upcoming repertoire to match the level of each group. This ensures that every performer will continue to develop technically and musically. Also, each semester members will learn different music, we don't repeat the same old repertoire every year, this keeps everything fresh and interesting for students who may be learning in the same ensemble from one year to another.
How do I sign up for an audition?
Conveniently, we have an online application. Please complete the form and you will be contacted to schedule a mid- year audition in late January or the new season audition held April to mid-June every year.
If I have additional questions or concerns not covered in this page, who can I contact? Members and non members are welcomed to call our office 365 days a year from 8 am to 8 pm at (858) 877-3696 or email at email@example.com. The NYO executive director Mario Ramirez is always glad to talk to those who need assistance.
The facilities are only open during Saturday rehearsals from 8:00 pm to 6:50 pm. But we are open to take calls from 8:00 am to 9:00 pm weekdays and weekends.
Give us a call to schedule a visit us or sign up for an upcoming audition.

Minister for Education Engr. Muhammad Baligh ur Rehman Friday said that the Accessibility Centers(ACs) set up by Allama Iqbal University (AIOU) for visually impaired students will serve as a model to provide similar support to disabled on country-wide basis. The visually handicapped students need special attention to enable them live a normal life and to participate in the country's socio-economic development, he said while inaugurating the newly constructed building at the University's regional office, Jhang.
He also opened the Accessibility Center(ACs) established in the building that was constructed with cost of Rs. 110 million within a period of about two years. The Minister lauded the AIOU's recent initiatives of providing special support to the depressed section of the society, particularly the disabled and prisoners. Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Shahid Siddiqui said that the accessibility centers have been established almost in all the 44 regional offices of the University, along with the libraries, connected with Central library in Islamabad.
He hoped that the newly built-up infrastructure network will better facilities to more 20,000 students of the Jhang's region. The accessibility Center, he said reflected the AIOU's focus on the education of deprived section and marginalized section of the society.
The University was constructing its own buildings especially in the far-flung regions to facilitate students, providing them with "best quality education at their door-step. The new building at Jhang consisted of necessary facilities including video-conferencing system, digital library, computer and science labs and classrooms that cost around 20 million extra.
Engr. Balighur Rehman further said that the government will soon announce a national policy for improving social services in the educational sector. He also listed the measures that the government was aggressively pursuing for empowering the universities with more development fund and infrastructural support.
The HEC's annual budgetary grant that was Rs41 billion in the financial year 2012-2013 was increased to Rs82 billion in the recent year. About the government's overall performance, he said it was showing upward trend and proved very effective in overcoming the problems of common man.
Dr. Shahid Siddiqui, in his welcome address also highlighted the university's special initiatives taken during the last two years in the social sector and promoting research-based culture.—APP

Porting into embedded RTOS made easy
The Jupiter Library
Development of embedded clients and servers requires special features. Not only do the programs need to be very light weight, they still need demonstrate a very high performance. Because process bus interactions are often very high speed, and system resources are limited.
The integration with the device logic needs solid knowledge about the device functions, and everything needs to run on the existing real time operating system of the device.And there are many different RTOSs.
To make the RTOS bonding a lot easier, Xelas Energy provides its Jupiter library, which hides the OS-specific functionality behind an easy-to-use API. It covers a wide set of system connect functions out-of-the-box, as default. The library, running directly on top the Xelas embedded transport services (ETS), our widest deployed embedded protocol product (for example used by NSN, Samsung, Alcatel Lucent, NEC, Huawei and Ericsson). The whole architecture is written in portable C-code and can easily be ported onto different embedded RTOS (real time operation systems).
Because the specific bonding for these system connect functions is already in place (by installing the Jupiter library), this spares a lot of time and effort for the developers. For more details, pls look at our embedded development page.

Whatever your style is, a girl should own classic pieces of clothing, shoes and accessories in her wardrobe. Because whenever the occasion calls for it, you just have to reach in to your closet for them and need not to freak out and scour the mall just to get them.
Must have pieces in your closet should include (according to Tim Gunn) a little black dress, a blazer, a polo shirt, a good pair of trousers, black high heels and a good pair of under wear. Of course that's not the only things you need but yeah, you should have at least one of each.
Wearing leopard print is a fashion power move par excellence- it gives even the most meh outfit a jolt of excitement and sex appeal. It's just about everywhere this season.
Then if you want to amped up your style, you can get additional pieces that puts an exclamation point into your ensemble like statement shoes, jewelry or bag. What comes to my mind that can give a rather boring little black dress the punch it needs is by pairing it with Leopard print shoes. I've seen fashion bloggers sporting this get-up and it totally looks chic.
Animal instincts? Not really. Some are afraid to own one because they might be teased about it. I wore a leopard print chiffon top a couple of times before and I got joshed over it. But it actually looks good and stylish, maybe some people are just not so used to it. One of my friends gave me a pair of leopard shoes and I love it to bits. It looks so chic with any monochromatic outfit especially with black clothes. A hint of leopard effortlessly jazzes up a solid black outfit. All black everything is a great backdrop for such a standout shoe.
From everyday events to special occasions, consider leopard heels to refresh your look. If you want to get all dressed up or take your day look to an evening look. A pair of leopard boots or leopard flats is perfect. Be sure to keep the rest of your ensemble simple and chic. Or be bold in a solid dress in a vivid color, a little animal print is always welcome.

Hi, SG land! How are you? both spent the weekend? I was at sea, and I was terribly bitten by insects. Ouch! But on Monday, I cheated my client. I wrote to her texts, and she did not pay and fraudulently wanted to get them copyrights. I think I have a black band started. Yesterday I spent the entire day to punish the impostor, but the legal system of Ukraine is not working for the benefit of the citizens! Damn! I'm starting to think about changing their place of residence, I swear! So, it is a photo that was not included in my new set, but still is the announcement of the second set. Damn, have to wait three months)
The theme of my homework from charming @MISSY and @RAMBO - guilty pleasure. Oh damn! This erotic movies, but not porn. Erotic positive effect on the human psyche and his sex life. It helps to relax and dream. When I was a teenager, I read a lot of women's romance novels with erotic scenes. A favorite book of course was "Emmanuel" by Emmanuelle Arsan. All taboo teenage dreams were embodied in this book. I shut in a room listening to Alice Cooper, Nirvana or Mayhem and reading a book. Perhaps that is why I decided that I would shoot for erotic projects.

QBCC takes action following Mackay building audits
The Queensland Building and Construction Commission has announced a series of measures to help ensure construction work meets cyclone-rating standards, following a recent compliance audit in Mackay.
QBCC Commissioner, Steve Griffin, said a QBCC team would return to the Mackay area next week to continue compliance audits of construction sites and also to conduct audits of certifiers.
Mr Griffin said an audit earlier this month had inspected 112 residential properties under construction in the Mackay area, and 11 of those were found not to conform with framing requirements.
"All 11 have since been rectified by the original builders and the dwellings either have been or soon will be reinspected by the QBCC.
"However, the failure to meet requirements is unacceptable and I am taking action to ensure construction and certification standards are strictly adhered to. The audit found that both local and itinerant builders have issues understanding cyclone-rating standards, and that issues also exist with certifier inspections of these elements of construction.
"The QBCC will now be working to ensure there is better understanding of these codes by contractors and certifiers. In addition to this, QBCC officers will also interview the certifiers of each of the 11 residences about the processes they undertook which led to certification being granted."
Mr Griffin said the QBCC would also launch a series of education and training seminars for builders and certifiers in the Mackay area in April, featuring a presentation from Timber Queensland's Col MacKenzie.
He said the QBCC would also step up random construction and certification audits in cyclone zones.
"This will include a comprehensive audit program for north Queensland, including the possibility that local certifiers could be required to reinspect existing homes to ensure compliance," Mr Griffin said.
He said if home owners were concerned about possible issues with their dwelling, they should contact the QBCC on 1300 272 272 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for assistance.
He said an information pack on this issue was also being developed which would eventually be available to home owners.

I had my colonoscopy and gastroscopy today having inexplicably losing 3 stones in weight. I had changed my diet due to bloating, diarrhea and pain. My GP suspected IBS but said the tests would clarify this.
The result shows a looping colon and a hiatus hernia which apparently isn't an issue.
The consultant has not recommended a follow up appointment and has referred me back to my GP. Is the next step a dietician and further IBS treatment? The only part of the procedures I remember as I was sedated is severe pain during the colonoscopy - would this be my looping colon?!

A schoolgirl from Kelso is looking forward to wowing judges at a national championship after taking home a dancing award.
Kelso High School pupil Charleigh Butler recently won her pre-championships at the Scottish Dance Teachers' Alliance (STDA) championships at Glasgow.
Charleigh, who is aged 13 and has lived in Kelso since she was four, is a Lynella highland Dance School dancer, taught by Susan Grainger & Sharon Sim. She also gets extra lessons from Zoe Young.
She competed in four disciplines in Glasgow - the fling, the reel, the swords and the seanntriubhas.
She finished in third place in the fling, and that result, coupled with two firsts in the seanntriubhas and the reel, was enough to clinch her prize.
Proud mum, Diane, said that Charleigh's practice was paying dividends: "Myself and my husband take her all over competing, every other weekend, to places like Aberdeen and Glasgow.
"Now, she's set up for the championships in Newcastle, in June."
Some of that practice includes dancing over real swords. "They're not very sharp," said Diane, "but once she did cut herself on them.
"Charleigh has always enjoyed dancing. She did do ballet but then she really liked this more.
