Carl "The Jackal" Frampton say he's loved teaming up with Harp Lager - and cannot wait to deliver the unique prize.
As Harp Lager prepares to say 'see ye later' to its super-popular Pure Here Limited Edition cans, 'a whole rake' of YOU'VE WON cans have been hidden inside some of the last remaining 12 packs. Those lucky enough to find one can take a pic of themselves with their YOU'VE WON can to claim one of a host of Pure Here prizes including a year's supply of free beer, Boojum burritos, or haircuts; a snooker lesson with Mark Allen; and a bespoke, purpose-built pub in their own garden - complete with a home visit from boxing legend Carl Frampton.
Two-weight world boxing champ Carl Frampton said: "Whoever is lucky enough to win this custom-made pub is in for a treat. It's class looking. I'm looking forward to calling round the winner's house to see it in its new home and I'll bring some of the last of the Pure Here cans with me to stick in the fridge!" Carl added."Harp is a local brand, and I grew up with my dad drinking it. Anytime he was watching a good match on the TV, a wee can of Harp would be pulled out. It promotes Northern Ireland so well. I certainly don't mind a tin of Harp, and I'll maybe have one after the fight," laughs Carl.
"I'm not the biggest drinker in the world, but I enjoy a pint every now and again, and Harp is a good one!"

Of course it's been a trend for years to have churches remove denominational labels from their identity and church signs. But now Granger Community Church has chosen to remove the word "church" from their property. There building will now be called the Granger Commons. This decision comes as a result of a vision and strategy to help their people see their building as merely a "tool" for ministry rather than being the actual "church" itself. They want people to know and live out being a people on mission together, and not have their identity as the church be tied to simply a building.
Watch one of Granger's pastors talk about this change:
What are your thoughts? Will this move help Granger's people see themselves as a missional people? Or do you think Granger's decision misses the point and will cause confusion?

Stephanie Waring has admitted that the Hollyoaks cast are "unsettled" by the arrival of a new producer.
Paul Marquess joined the show last month and has already axed three characters.
Waring, who plays Cindy Hutchinson in the soap, signed an 18-month contract in September but revealed that the cast are unsure what will happen next.
"Things are changing as we speak," she told PA. "We are unsettled - you can't say we're not because we don't know what's going to happen yet. We've not had the meetings yet so we don't know what's going on."
Earlier this month, Marquess also changed the soap's production team.

Carmageddon: Reincarnation[edit]
"Wacko paraplegic Screwie lost his legs in a fight with The Eagle. There'll be no screwing around in his mission to take revenge on Max."
Screwie Lewie returns, revealed to be a double leg amputee. When he's not driving the Twister, he uses an all terrain wheel-chair called the Spack Chariot: This may be available to drive in-game.[1].
- "Screwie Louie" is a phrase describing something that is not working correctly, e.g. "the printer's all Screwie Louie again."
- The Twister is the first vehicle shown in the first game's intro.
- In the PlayStation port, Screwie Lewie is called Screwie Louis. Here, he drives the same Twister, but lacks the drill on the front during races. It has one on the Info screen and in the Car Shop, very odd.
- Screwie Lewie looks just like Sir Percy Ware-Armitage from the movie Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines.
- His car is most likely based on Drill Sergeant, a vehicle from Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors. See the Intro at around 40 seconds.
- The Twister is a heavily modified reworking of the Electric Blue, itself a modded Lister Storm. The Twister also seems, at least in part, to be based on the Lancia Stratos - most evident around the indicator lights and grille. The rear of the car, however, is definitely something else.
- The Twister does not have a steering wheel - instead, Screwie uses a joystick.
- The Splat Pack's Su Borg also drives a vehicle which uses a joystick.
- Screwie's loss of his legs could work as a good explanation (aside from insanity) as to why he drives using a one-handed joystick (which would allow him to control a throttle with his other hand).
- In the Reincarnation Alpha, The Twister is back to having a steering wheel. This could be changed in time.
- 'Spack' is short for 'Spacker', which is not a nice word - it's a harsher version of 'retard' (which is hardly a politically correct term itself).[2]

Linlithgow Distillery Part 1
We've been working closely with Ross and Alyson of Linlithgow Distillery to help document the set up of this new venture from the ground up and are please to be able to release the first short film showing progress. This first video uses some aerial shots and also time-lapse to set the scene and show how the distillery is taking shape. Look out in the future for more instalments and hopefully the first gin being produced and bottled ready for distribution.
Linlithgow 10k Coverage
We had the pleasure over the weekend of filming the annual Linlithgow 10k event. It attracts close to 1,000 runners and takes in a course which starts along historic Linlithgow High Street (closed to traffic for the race), around the picturesque Loch side and ends up in the ground of stunning Linlithgow Palace. We're now in the process of editing the race video which will be launched through our Facebook page which can be accessed here. If you're interested in capturing an event on video for

North Coast 500 in 1 Day
We had a few days free last week and have been looking for an opportunity to try out some hyper lapse filming so, with the weather forecast looking promising we packed up the motorbike and headed for Inverness to take on the North Coast 500. The plan was to travel the entire route in a 12 hour period starting at sunrise. We'd use the trusty GoPro to capture a photo every 2 seconds on the route as in tests this provided the best balance of smooth playback and quantity of photos to process. This

Hot off his historic Nā Hōkū Hanohano Award — the first of the Hawaiian recording industry's prestigious honors for a Mainland-based musician — the East Bay's busy Patrick Landeza isn't resting on his laurels. After recently winning best slack key album for "Slack Key Huaka`i," he flew back to finish grading at St. Joseph School in Fremont, where he teaches, and tomorrow he helps debut a monthly new Hawaiian Cafe and Bazaar at House of Hawaiian Music in San Lorenzo (676 Bockman Road.)
The LandezaPresents event features live Hawaiian music (presumably some from you-know-who), plate lunches, craft booths from a variety of local vendors (hopefully Landeza has had a chance to bake more taro rolls and has plenty of Kanikapila jams on hand) and Hawaiian shave ice, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.; admission is free. He'll be performing at a celebratory Father's Day concert in Newark, too; watch this space for details.
Let their "Force" be with you: Slack key guitarists Ledward Kaapana and Mike Kaawa, who paired up for 2008's highly regarded "Force of Nature" album, bring their Northern California tour to the Bay Area this Sunday, with a 7 p.m. show at Rancho Nicasio (tickets $20).
You can check out their 2011 rapid-fire performance of "Jus' Press" in the video below, but I'll also let the liner notes from that album (courtesy of Mele.com) describe the pair's unique down-home style:
"Here's Ledward Kaapana — the incomparable ki ho`alu (slack key guitar) master, inheritor and practitioner of a vast treasure of generations of talent, nuance, virtuosity, and style. Effortless and magical on the `ukulele or autoharp, as he is on guitar.
And the most natural collaborator of all, 'Hawaiian Boy' Mike Kaawa — the under-the-radar 12-string maestro, body surfer, keeper of Hawaiian culture, friend and musical collaborator of Eddie Kamae, integrator of endless styles that echo jazz, ragtime, katchi-katchi, and indefinable trans-Pacific steamer blues."
Their tour, frequently with Californian compadre Fran Guidry, continues:
- Tuesday, June 4, at Don Quixote's in Felton at 7:30 p.m., with Guidry ($17 advance, $20 door, agents under 21 admitted with parent);
- Wednesday, June 5, at 142 Throckmorton in Mill Valley at 7:30 p.m ($18 general advance, $21 door, $28 reserved seating)
- Saturday, June 8, at 8 p.m. at Grass Valley's Center for the Arts ($20)
- Sunday, June 9, at Club Fox in Redwood City at 7 p.m. ($22 advance, $25 door, 21 and older only.) Note: With two full sets and Guidry as opener, this is a good chance to make up for the unfortunately short show Kaapana performed there earlier this year, apparently due to the club's later booking that night.
- Friday, June 14, at Live at the Cue in Concord at 7 p.m., also with Guidry ($25)
Also tomorrow: The University of Hawaiʻi Alumni Association's annual luau from noon to 2 p.m. at Roosevelt Community Center in San Jose. The event, which includes live music, hula, island-style food and prizes, raises funds for a Bay Area high school student heading to UH. Former 49er Jesse Sapolu and UH Mānoa Chancellor Tom Apple are this year's special guests, with entertainment by Kāwika Alfiche's Hālau o Keikiali`i and emceeing by sportscaster Rick Quan. Tickets are $55 ages 13 and up, $25 ages 4 to 12, younger free.

while the posting of signs was claimed to be religiously motivated at least in part and thus falls within RFRA's expansive definition of "religious exercise," Appellant has nonetheless failed to identify the sincerely held religious belief that made placing the signs important to her exercise of religion or how the removal of the signs substantially burdened her exercise of religion in some other way. We decline Appellant's invitation to conclude that any interference at all with a religiously motivated action constitutes a substantial burden, particularly where the claimant did not bother to either inform the government that the action was religious or seek an available accommodation.The court spelled out its understanding of what must be shown to establish that the government imposed a substantial burden on appellant's religious exercise:
[W]hile we will not assess the importance of a religious practice to a practitioner's exercise of religion or impose any type of centrality test, a claimant must at least demonstrate "an honest belief that the practice is important to [her] free exercise of religion" in order to show that a government action substantially burdens her religious exercise.... A substantial burden is not measured only by the secular costs that government action imposes; the claimant must also establish that she believes there are religious costs as well, and this should be clear from the record....
In contrast, courts have found that a government practice that offends religious sensibilities but does not force the claimant to act contrary to her beliefs does not constitute a substantial burden.... We reject the argument that every interference with a religiously motivated act constitutes a substantial burden on the exercise of religion.
Contrary to Appellant's assertions before this Court, the trial evidence does not even begin to establish how the orders to take down the signs interfered with any precept of her religion let alone forced her to choose between a practice or principle important to her faith and disciplinary action.Judge Ohlson dissented, saying in part:
Unfortunately, instead of remanding this case so that it can be properly adjudicated by the court below, the majority instead has chosen to impose a stringent, judicially made legal standard in this and future religious liberty cases that is not supported by the provisions of RFRA. Contrary to the majority's holding, the plain language of the statute does not empower judges to curtail various manifestations of sincere religious belief simply by arbitrarily deciding that a certain act was not "important" to the believer's exercise of religion. Neither does the statute empower judges to require a believer to ask of the government, "Mother, may I?" before engaging in sincere religious conduct. And further, nowhere in the statute are service members required to inform the government of the religious nature of their conduct at the time they engage in it.[Thanks to ChristianFighterPilot.com for the lead.]

The GNU/Linux naming controversy is a dispute among members of the free and open source software community over how to refer to the computer operating system commonly called Linux.
GNU/Linux is a term promoted by the Free Software Foundation (FSF), its founder Richard Stallman, and its supporters, for operating systems that include GNU software and the Linux kernel.[1] The FSF argues for the term GNU/Linux because GNU was a longstanding project to develop a free operating system, of which they say the kernel was the last missing piece.[1] Proponents of the Linux term dispute GNU/Linux for a number of reasons, such as the fact that the term Linux is far more commonly used by the public and media.
Plans for the GNU operating system were made in 1983 by Richard Stallman, founder of the Free Software Foundation. In September of that year, Stallman published a manifesto in Dr. Dobb's Journal detailing his new project publicly, and outlining his vision of free software. Software development work began in January 1984. GNU was to be a complete Unix-like operating system composed entirely of free software. By 1991, the GNU mid-level portions of the operating system were almost complete, and the upper level could be supplied by the X Window System, but the lower level (kernel, device drivers, system-level utilities and daemons) was still mostly lacking. The GNU kernel, GNU Hurd, was still in its infancy. The Hurd followed an ambitious design which proved unexpectedly difficult to implement and has only been marginally usable.
In 1991, the first version of the Linux kernel was released by Linus Torvalds. Early Linux kernel developers ported GNU code, including the GNU C Compiler, to run on Linux. Later, when the GNU developers learned of Linux, they adapted other parts of GNU to run on the Linux kernel. This work filled the remaining gaps in running a completely free operating system.
Over the next few years, there were a number of suggestions for how to name operating systems using the Linux kernel and GNU components. In 1992, the Yggdrasil Linux distribution adopted the name "Linux/GNU/X". In Usenet and mailing-list discussions, one can find usages of "GNU/Linux" as early as 1992[2] and of "GNU+Linux" as early as 1993.[3] The Debian project switched to calling itself "GNU/Linux" in early 1994;[4] Debian founder Ian Murdock later noted that this change was made in response to a request by Richard Stallman (who initially proposed "Lignux," but suggested "GNU/Linux" instead after hearing complaints about the awkwardness of the former term).[5] GNU's June 1994 Bulletin describes "Linux" as a "free Unix system for 386 machines" (with "many of the utilities and libraries" from GNU),[6] but the January 1995 Bulletin switched to the term "GNU/Linux" instead.[7] Stallman's and the FSF's efforts to include "GNU" in the name started around 1994, but were reportedly mostly via private communications (such as the abovementioned request to Debian) until 1996.[8][9] In May 1996, Stallman released Emacs 19.31 with the Autoconf system target "linux" changed to "lignux" (shortly thereafter changed to "linux-gnu" in emacs 19.32), and included an essay "Linux and the GNU system" suggesting that people use the terms "Linux-based GNU system" (or "GNU/Linux system" or "Lignux" for short). He later used "GNU/Linux" exclusively, and the essay was superseded by Stallman's 1997 essay, "Linux and the GNU project".[1]
Modern free and open source software systems are composed of software by many different authors, including the Linux kernel developers, the GNU project, and other vendors such as those behind the X Window System. Desktop- and server-based distributions use GNU components such as the GNU C Library (glibc), GNU Core Utilities (Coreutils), and bash.
In an analysis of the source code for packages comprising Red Hat Linux 7.1, a typical Linux distribution, the total size of the packages from the GNU project was found to be much larger than the Linux kernel.[10] Determining exactly what constitutes the "operating system" per se is a matter of continuing debate.
On the other hand, some embedded systems, such as handheld devices, residential gateways (routers), and Voice over IP devices, are engineered with space efficiency in mind and use a Linux kernel with few or no components of GNU. A system running μClinux is likely to substitute uClibc for glibc and BusyBox for Coreutils. Everyone, including the FSF, agrees that "GNU/Linux" is not an appropriate name for these systems.[11]
The FSF justifies the name "GNU/Linux" primarily on the grounds that the GNU project was specifically developing a complete system, of which they argue the kernel Linux filled one of the final gaps;[12] the large number of GNU components and GNU source code used in such systems is a secondary argument:
So if you were going to pick a name for the system based on who wrote the programs in the system, the most appropriate single choice would be GNU. But we don't think that is the right way to consider the question. The GNU Project was not, is not, a project to develop specific software packages. [...] Many people have made major contributions to the free software in the system, and they all deserve credit. But the reason it is an integrated system — and not just a collection of useful programs — is because the GNU Project set out to make it one. We made a list of the programs needed to make a complete free system, and we systematically wrote, or found people to write, everything on the list.[12]
In addition, the FSF also argues that "GNU/Linux recognizes the role that our idealism played in building our community, and helps the public recognize the practical importance of these ideals",[11] in contrast to the focus on "technical advantage" rather than "freedom" of the Linux kernel developers[13][14]. In the case of the Linux kernel, notable and recurring examples of this focus on technical advantage over freedom come from the long-time inclusion in the Linux kernel of many non-free firmware files and other files with non-free license terms.[1]
The ordinary understanding of "operating system" includes both the kernel — the specific subsystem that directly interfaces with the hardware — and the "userland" software that is employed by the user and by application software to control the computer. Moreover, both the name "GNU" and the name "Linux" are intentionally related to the name "Unix", and Unix has always conceptually included the C library and userland tools as well as the kernel. In the 1991 release notes for versions 0.01 to 0.11 of the Linux kernel (which was not released under the GNU General Public License until version 0.12[15]), Torvalds wrote, "Sadly, a kernel by itself gets you nowhere [...] Most of the tools used with linux are GNU software."[16] Torvalds also wrote during the 1992 Tanenbaum-Torvalds debate that, "As has been noted (not only by me), the linux kernel is a miniscule part of a complete system".[17]
The use of the word "Linux" to refer to the kernel, the operating system, and entire distributions, often leads to confusion about the distinctions among the three. Many GNU packages are a key part of almost every Linux distribution. Media sources frequently make erroneous statements such as claiming that the entire Linux operating system (rather than simply the kernel) was written from scratch by Torvalds in 1991;[18] that Torvalds directs the development of other components such as graphical interfaces or the GNU tools; or that new releases of the kernel involve a similar degree of user-visible change as do new versions of proprietary operating systems such as Microsoft Windows, where many things besides the kernel change simultaneously.
Because of this confusion, legal threats and public relations campaigns apparently directed against the kernel, such as those launched by the SCO Group or the Alexis de Tocqueville Institution (AdTI), have been misinterpreted by many commentators who assume that the whole operating system is being targeted. These organisations have even been accused of deliberately exploiting this confusion.[19][20][21]
In response to suggestions that Stallman's renaming efforts stem from egotism or personal pique, Stallman has responded that his interest is not in giving credit to himself, but to the GNU Project: Some people think that it's because I want my ego to be fed. Of course, I'm not asking you to call it "Stallmanix".[22] Stallman has admitted to irritation, although he believes it to be justified in response to seeing "an idealistic project stymied and made ineffective, because people don't usually give it the credit for what it has done," concluding "If you're an idealist like me, that can ruin your whole decade."[23]
In response to another common argument (see below), the FSF acknowledges that many people have contributed to the system and that a short name cannot credit all of them, but argues that this cannot justify calling the system "Linux":
Since a long name such as GNU/X11/Apache/Linux/TeX/Perl/Python/FreeCiv becomes absurd, at some point you will have to set a threshold and omit the names of the many other secondary contributions. There is no one obvious right place to set the threshold, so wherever you set it, we won't argue against it ... But one name that cannot result from concerns of fairness and giving credit, not for any possible threshold level, is "Linux". It can't be fair to give all the credit to one secondary contribution (Linux) while omitting the principal contribution (GNU).[11]
"Linux" is by far the more widespread name,[24] while references to "GNU/Linux" appear only infrequently in mainstream sources. "Linux" has more historical momentum because it is the name Torvalds has used for the combined system since 1991, while Stallman only began asking people to call the system "GNU/Linux" in the mid 1990s, some time after the "Linux" name had already become popular. "Linux" also is shorter and easier to say than "GNU/Linux".
Eric S. Raymond writes (in the "Linux" entry of the Jargon File):
Some people object that the name "Linux" should be used to refer only to the kernel, not the entire operating system. This claim is a proxy for an underlying territorial dispute; people who insist on the term GNU/Linux want the FSF to get most of the credit for Linux because [Stallman] and friends wrote many of its user-level tools. Neither this theory nor the term GNU/Linux has gained more than minority acceptance.
Linus Torvalds has said in the documentary Revolution OS, when asked if the name GNU/Linux was justified:
Well, I think it's justified, but it's justified if you actually make a GNU distribution of Linux ... the same way that I think that "Red Hat Linux" is fine, or "SuSE Linux" or "Debian Linux", because if you actually make your own distribution of Linux, you get to name the thing, but calling Linux in general "GNU Linux" I think is just ridiculous.[25]
An earlier comment by Torvalds on the naming controversy was:
Umm, this discussion has gone on quite long enough, thank you very much. It doesn't really matter what people call Linux, as long as credit is given where credit is due (on both sides). Personally, I'll very much continue to call it "Linux".[26]
In a similar vein, the debate over the name for the operating system is sometimes characterized as a trivial distraction; e.g. John C. Dvorak wrote "the Linux community spends too much of its energy on things such as nomenclature (like the name GNU/Linux versus Linux)."[27]
The Linux Journal speculated that Stallman's advocacy of the combined name stems from frustration that "Linus got the glory for what [Stallman] wanted to do."[28]
Others have suggested that, regardless of the merits, Stallman's persistence in what sometimes seems a lost cause makes him and GNU look bad. For example, Larry McVoy (author of the proprietary software BitKeeper, once used to manage Linux kernel development, until the gratis license was revoked in the reverse-engineering controversy) opined that "claiming credit only makes one look foolish and greedy".[29]
Many users and vendors who prefer the name "Linux" point to the inclusion of non-GNU, non-kernel tools such as the Apache HTTP Server, the X Window System or the KDE workspace in end-user operating systems based on the Linux kernel. As stated by Jim Gettys, originator of X:
There are lots of people on this bus; I don't hear a clamor of support that GNU is more essential than many of the other components; can't take a wheel away, and end up with a functional vehicle, or an engine, or the seats. I recommend you be happy we have a bus.[30]
Although "GNU/Linux" (pronounced /ɡəˈnuː slæʃ ˈlɪnəks/) is often pronounced without the slash, Stallman recommends explicit pronunciation in order to avoid the mistaken suggestion that the Linux kernel itself is a GNU package.[31]

Donald Trump succeeded in pushing through his plans for an "ungreen" golf course.
Noel Gallagher rejects Chris Martins environmental overtures.
UKIP's Yorkshire MEP Godfrey Bloom blogs about climate change and gives repeated glimpses into the mind of a skeptic:
"People don't quite understand this yet, but once all of the planned policies are in place, people who have gone to bed the night before in what they understood to be a liberal democracy will wake up in something resembling Soviet Russia. There will be shortages of expensive, low quality of food. It will be cold. There will be power cuts. You will not be allowed to travel as you wish. Jobs –if they still exist – will be make-work employment that is dull, pointless, and increasingly labour-intensive. And that's if we're lucky. At least Soviet Russia attempted to be an industrial. We might end up with something far more medieval.
If you don't like these policies, tough luck, because none of the parties is offering you the choice. You will be green, whether you like it or not."
Sarah Palin further cemented her polar bear killing reputation when she said "The president should boycott Copenhagen"

HAWTHORNE, CA – The South Bay Workforce Investment Board (SBWIB) and the Aero-Flex team of employers and partners have successfully registered the first Aerospace Engineering Apprenticeship occupation in the United States, sponsored by Tooling U-SME, a non-profit dedicated to advance the manufacturing industry. This is also the first degreed registered apprenticeship in the U.S. in the engineering discipline. This new national apprenticeship, approved by the U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL) Office of Apprenticeship, aligns with the current nationwide effort to expand apprenticeship in America and creates an extended career pathway for anyone interested in becoming an Aerospace Engineer. "This is a substantial achievement for our Aero-Flex team and for workforce development, not only in California, but to meet industry needs on a national level. It shows a commitment from the U.S. Department of Labor to support innovative apprenticeships that meet the needs of business. SBWIB is thankful for their assistance in streamlining this process for our employers and team," said Jan Vogel, Executive Director for SBWIB.
The Aero-Flex Aerospace Engineering Apprenticeship follows the implementation of Aero-Flex Pre-Apprenticeship, an innovative employer-centric 'earn and learn' model for engineering. Aero-Flex was originally developed to meet the nationally recognized hub of aerospace and advanced manufacturing industries located in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County. The Aerospace Engineering Apprenticeship allows employers to scale nationwide, applying the framework to workforce development wherever the company does business.
Furthermore, the Aero-Flex model was designed from conception to validation by industry partners and employers who appreciate a non-traditional model that would 'flex' curriculum and program design to meet their business needs. Initially championed by Northrop Grumman Corporation, the Aero-Flex employer team, known as the Unilateral Apprenticeship Committee, now includes Impresa Aerospace, LLC; L3 Electron Devices; Magnetika, Inc.; Northrop Grumman Corporation; Space Vector Corporation; TEN TECH, LLC; Verisurf; and Zodiac Water and Waste Aero Systems.
The Aero-Flex program allows the student to gain real world experience exploring career tracks; from earning a certificate and becoming a technician, to earning a degree and becoming an engineer. The new Aero-Flex apprenticeship has created innovative employer-guided pathways of which one allows the student to combine earning their bachelor degree while receiving employer customized training and graduating employed.
The Aero-Flex Apprenticeship extends the career pathway to anyone interested in becoming an Aerospace Engineer including those open to exploring related occupations through the Aero-Flex Pre-Apprenticeship in Engineering. The Aero-Flex team will also soon be rolling out new Pre-Apprenticeship tracks linked to other advanced manufacturing roles and registered apprenticeships.

I've always wanted to vacation at a tropical resort; a land of paradise where the pool has a swim-up bar and sexy cabana boys bring you fresh towels and rub lotion on your shoulders…I didn't anticipate that Meebs would experience this luxury before (or without) me!
When Meebs outgrew her countertop baby bathtub we weren't sure what we were going to do; she looked like a guppy in our gigantic soaker tub. Plus, it was back-breaking trying to lean over the edge to bath her—babies are wiggly and very slippery! The only option was to climb into the tub with her. But what adult really wants to take a nightly 10-minute bath in less than a foot of water?
However, what began as a perfunctory solution is now an enjoyably part of our daily bedtime routine; a soothing opportunity for Meebs and me to bond with skin-to-skin contact and have some fun. We've even compiled a song list with tunes for washing, rinsing, cuddling, and, of course, a little splashing. In truth, I really look forward to bath-time now and based on the look on her face when daddy puts her in the tub beside me, I'd say Meebs loves it too. I adore making her laugh when she falls into the "hole in the road" or we splash around to the "wheels on the bus" or when she gets the shivers during "criss-cross".
And, what makes me chuckle is that every so often Meebs splashes her way up to my "bar" and takes a drink as though she's sipping from a straw. Sometimes she beaches herself in my lap and we have a full nursing session, and other times she seems to just need to wet her whistle before she refocuses on her tub toys.
As for the hot cabana boy, that would be my husband. When I start singing the "take me out of the bath" song he enters the bathroom, singing harmony, hoodie towel in hand. He scoops Meebs out of the tub, dries her off and gives her a mini-massage as he applies her moisturizer. Talk about 4-star treatment! Where's mine? (Hmmm. That might be a different post about restoring romance after rug rats!)
I'm sure someday I'll get to live the dream as well, but the swim-up bar will serve drinks with little umbrellas and a bit of zip instead of lukewarm milk. For now I suppose I'll have to settle for vacationing vicariously through Meebs.

It is the holiest of days in some parts of the country: NCAA Selection Sunday. And here, for your viewing pleasure, is the official bracket for the 2013 NCAA Tournament, plus some amateur analysis that will help ruin your bracket by the end of the first round.
We should start this post with a disclaimer: gambling is mostly illegal in the U.S. We are not condoning or encouraging you place real money on the outcome of a game played by college kids. In fact, we'd like to suggest you gamble for muffins if you just can't help yourself. Muffins are a good alternative, because they're delicious.
So, after all of that, here's this year's bracket:
Louisville, Kansas, Indiana and Gonzaga are this year's number one seeds. The nationally ranked number four Louisville squad earned the tournament's overall number one seed and were slotted into the Midwest bracket after they fought off a tough Syracuse team Saturday night to claim the last Big East championship Saturday night. Will Leitch actually guessed the entire bracket correctly over at Sports on Earth. Oh, and there's one glaring absence from this year's tournament: reigning champs Kentucky got left out completely after going 21-11 this year.
And, finally, some advice:
Don't listen to anyone. This is the NCAA tournament; you've been here before. No one knows anything and nothing ever makes sense. Duke will go on a run this year, because they've generally been terrible, and the only reliable part of the NCAA tournament is that chaos reigns. Or Duke will lose in the second round because they won't get past Cincinnati. Both of those outcomes sound entirely plausible, no? Exactly. The guy in your office who watches mid-major ball regularly, does all of his homework and could tell you offhand what Syracuse's backup point guard's stat averages are will not win your pool. The H.R manager's ten-year-old kid will. Just have fun with it. Throw some guesses at the wall and see what sticks.
The play in games kick off on March 19. Oh, we're excited.

The Big Lebowski - Flashback Film Fest 2018
A laid-back Los Angeles bowler named Jeff Lebowski, nicknamed "The Dude", is beaten up by thugs who let him know that his wife owes money to Jackie Treehorn. One problem remains; The Dude has never been married and has never heard of Jackie Treehorn. Realizing the situation is a case of mistaken identity, The Dude discovers another Jeff Lebowski living in LA. This second Lebowski is a millionaire who throws The Dude out of his house, but not before he gets a glipse of Lebowski's wife Bunny. The next day, The Dude gets a call from Lebowski saying Bunny's been kidnapped for a $1 million ransom. Lebowski offers The Dude 20 grand to act as the courier for the money. The Dude agrees, taking along his bowling buddy Walter who suggests they blow off the kidnapping and steal the money for themselves. The Dude disagrees but when Walter hands the kidnappers a bag of laundry, they are in deep. Things only get worse when The Dude's car is stolen with the $1 million inside.

With fewer than 40 hours remaining in our Kickstarter campaign, it's still business as usual at OUYA headquarters. We continue to jam on the task at hand, but we've got four quick announcements to share with you in this update.
First: We've been hearing requests from all over the Internet for a media player. Well we're proud to announce that we will be working with XBMC.
That's right. The award-winning, open source media player and entertainment hub is coming to OUYA. We've heard many of you buzzing about a potential OUYA-XBMC hook-up since Day One of launch. (Something of a match made in open source heaven!) Now, with a few hours left in our drive, we're delivering.
Believe it, friends: XBMC, on OUYA, on your TV, legit.
Here it is, straight from the XBMC team:
Maybe it was inevitable. Maybe it was because of the hundreds, if not thousands, of demands on Twitter, in blogs, on Facebook, in Reddit, and in Kickstarter comments. Maybe it's because many of Team OUYA support XBMC, and nearly a third of Team XBMC members are OUYA backers.
Regardless, we are delighted to announce that XBMC will be working with OUYA to ensure that XBMC works well on the OUYA platform. OUYA's Android underpinnings and XBMC's work on Android (soon to be merged into master, pending final sign-offs!) will dramatically speed up that effort, as will early XBMC dev access to OUYA prototypes.
The conversation between our two teams is young, but talk is ongoing and positive. We look forward to providing more exciting news on this front as it develops.
– Nathan Betzen, XBMC Community Manager
And to our friends outside the US: we hear you. XBMC runs in over 40 different languages.
But that's not all.
We're boosting our radio reception around the world. We've partnered with TuneIn, a free service that lets people listen to the world's music, sports and news from wherever they are. With over 70,000 stations and two million on-demand programs, TuneIn offers unmatched variety for listeners across 230 countries and territories.
Enough of the tell and tell, we've also got some show and tell: That's right! New renders for you. Eager to answer your questions about the size of OUYA, the team at fuseproject created some images to demonstrate the scale of the console and controller. Scroll down to check them out.
And, I guess I will end this update on a housekeeping note. Throughout our run on Kickstarter, our campaign page has served as the official OUYA information resource. After the campaign closes, we will unveil a new OUYA site at www.ouya.tv that will serve as OUYA central moving forward.
So with that, I'd like to thank you all once more for believing in this project and supporting it from the beginning. Again, we only have a handful of hours remaining, so please tell your friends about what we're trying to do here. It's your support that makes OUYA possible.

Tom Hanks has modified his recent statement that Mormons are un-American for supporting Proposition 8 (see "Big Love producer sounds off on Prop 8"). Through a publicist, Hanks released a statement to People Magazine (is this the magazine of record for Hollywood types?) as follows:
Last week, I labeled members of the Mormon church who supported California's Proposition 8 as "un-American." I believe Proposition 8 is counter to the promise of our Constitution; it is codified discrimination. But everyone has a right to vote their conscience – nothing could be more American. To say members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints who contributed to Proposition 8 are "un-American" creates more division when the time calls for respectful disagreement. No one should use "un- American" lightly or in haste. I did. I should not have.
Tom Hanks
Thank you, Tom. FYI, it's "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints." A good publicist ought to catch things like that. Of course, nothing could be more American than bad spelling.

Want the BritRail England Consecutive Pass on your phone?
Buy the BritRail M-Pass instead
Train is undoubtedly the most scenic and relaxing way to see Britain. The BritRail England Pass offers unlimited travel on any scheduled train over the whole of England within its period of validity - so it's never been easier to get around!
Please note: When choosing your BritRail Pass, please ensure you select your date of arrival in Britain so we can deliver to you in time
Why buy in advance?
Please note this is not an e-voucher. This is a physical ticket that will be mailed out to you. When ordering a pass, you need to print this document containing important details, and take it with you when you travel. Please check our FAQs regarding delivery times to ensure that you allow sufficient time for your order to reach you.
This pass does not include Scotland or Wales.
This product is sold by VisitBritain and is provided by our supplier, ACP Marketing.
What's the difference between a Consecutive pass and a Flexi pass?
A Consecutive pass is valid for a set number of days in a row. For example, if you start using a 4 day pass on a Monday, it will be valid until Thursday.
This pass will suit you if:
With a Flexi pass, your travel days do not need to be consecutive – you can travel for a set number of days over a period of 1 calendar month. For example, if you start using a 4 day pass on the 23 March you then have 3 remaining other days that you can use your pass until the 22 April inclusive.
Click here for a full map of Britain showing which BritRail Pass works best for you
Ordering your pass
Please note: The Britrail England Pass can be cancelled within 72 hours of purchase.
Activating your pass
Please note: BritRail passes are not available for UK residents; this includes International Students who are studying in the UK for more than six months.
Why should I buy a BritRail Pass from VisitBritain?
Where can I find train timetables?
For information regarding train times, please click on www.nationalrail.co.uk. This is a really useful website for planning trips by train in the UK. All you need to do is type in where you want to go from and where to, with the date you intend to travel and it will bring up all the details you will need (times, changes if needed, facilities on board etc.).
How many train journeys can I make on one day?
You can make as many journeys as you like in one day. The passes are restricted by days, not journeys. A day is classified as one calendar day – not 24 hours from the start of the journey. You therefore need to commence your last journey of the day before midnight.
What happens if there are no trains?
If you have a BritRail consecutive pass and there are no trains on a day during your pass validity (e.g. Christmas Day), you can visit a ticket office to get your pass extended. Your pass will then be valid for one additional day. Please note that if your train is cancelled but you are able to take an alternate route or a replacement bus, you will not be eligible for a pass extension.
Is there a tour guide included?
No, there are no tour guides on BritRail trains.
Can I buy food and drink on trains in the UK?
Most trains in the UK have either a shop or a trolley service on board. Virgin trains sell sandwiches, snacks and drinks.
Do I need to make seat reservations?
It is not essential to reserve seats on all trains. Generally speaking it is only really necessary to make reservations if you plan to travel on a popular route (e.g. London to Edinburgh) at a peak time (e.g. Friday at 18.00). To make a reservation with a BritRail Pass you need to take your BritRail Pass to the station that you are going to travel from and the travel centre will make the seat reservations for you (for a small fee)
What is the difference between 1st Class and standard class?
1st class tickets include more legroom, your own table, reclining seats and overhead reading lights. Some trains also include complimentary Wi-Fi in 1st class. Buy a BritRail 1st class ticket from our website and enjoy complimentary food and drink on Virgin Trains.
Can I use the BritRail Pass on the tube?
BritRail Passes are not valid on London Transport Underground trains or buses. To travel on the tube you will need either an Oyster Card or a London Travelcard.
Is there a luggage restriction with BritRail Passes?
There is no specific luggage limit, but please be considerate to other passengers who may also be travelling with luggage. Most trains have small overhead luggage racks and at least 1 luggage compartment per carriage.
Can I use my BritRail Pass on the Heathrow/Gatwick/Stansted Express?
Yes you can, but please be aware that this will be considered as a day of travel. The passes are not valid on the airport transfers by bus
Can children travel free with my pass?
For every adult or senior buying a full price ticket, one child (age 5 to 15) receives a pass of the same type and duration for free. You must enter the child details at the bottom of the page in order to get the free pass
Why am I being asked for outbound travel details?
All BritRail passes are only available to non-UK passport holders and if staying for 6 months or less. You may be asked to present proof of return travel from Britain at the time of train ticket inspections.
Prices include booking fee.
Your BritRail Pass will be mailed to you. BritRail Passes are non-cancellable, non-refundable and non-exchangeable.

A lot of companies provide DNA 'ancestrial' testing. The only reason I see to have dna tests done is to prove paternity. The dna test's I've seen provides links to 26 ethnic groups.
The people most important to study are indigiounus people, often who won't waste money on a dna study. https://genographic.nationalgeographic.com/
In the wealthy western world people may have an obsessive compulsive disorder to know their 'origin.' What difference does it make unless you were from a broken home, an orphin, or foster kid?
Most families are broken in some way. It's helpfull to know your parents, grandparents and great grandparents if possible. Beyond that shouldn't culture be more important than ancestry?
In the western world especially the U.S. people move all the time. I read that the average lenght of time to stay in a place is seven years.
There are more than twenty six different ethnic groups.
Wikipedia for example shows 87 distinct peoples of Europe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_groups_in_Europe
Views: 231
Has anyone had dna testing in attempt to find their ancestory? If so, why, and did it provide the information you were seeking?
23 and me seems like a scam.
Chris, your reason(s) for saying 23 And Me seems like a scam?
Ancestry dot com offered to tell me what my last name means but wanted reams of family info. I entered a bunch but it kept on wanting more. I quit without the answer I wanted.
They asked my reason for quitting and I told them.
Culture is more important than ancestry.
What does you last name mean? It doesn't matter. It doesn't describe who you are.
I think it makes history more interesting if you can personalize it. Also with travel and so many people not living in a culture that is theirs it gives a sense of belonging. I've never had a DNA test either.
Culture can also be stolen from you as can your Clan name, your Family name!
Your family name gives you a connection to your ancestors thus giving you a sense of continuation of history at a personal level.
Culture belongs to the Society that you live in, so it is possible to change the culture you live in.
From my point of view on culture is "Do as the Romans do" when living in a culture that you decide to live in that is not your culture you grew up in.
I for example only have to go back two generations to know my last name isn't inherited, It's adopted. When my parents went to Scotland my dad was told his (adopted) last name wasn't Scottish, it was Norman and was corrected on the pronunciation.
Some who emigrated to the U.S. names were mispelled during processing.
At best a surname only provides the fraternal side of ancestory.
I knew a Pacific Islander who's full name was about two paragraphs long to describe his family history, including where he was born.
That is correct with both the Polynesians and the Maoris. The Maoris could recite their family history back to their colonisation of Aotearoa!
My Grandmother had both her Culture, her language and Clan name stolen from her when she was taken from her mother by the colonists. She was forced to adopt the European culture of the English.
So now I am basically cultureless. Oh! I may have been brought up in the European based Australian culture but that does not mean that I fully accepted it.
DNA testing from many, if not most commercial enterprises doesn't provide valuable information.
The map I provided previously shows Australian Aboriginals, the Americas, among other regions aren't included in the commercial study.
I'm hearing it's just another means of database collection for mass consumption.
DNA testing for paternity is not the only reason. The Charlie Gard case is exemplary.
Food for thought.
In Child Deaths, a Test for Christian Science.
David and Ginger Twitchell, a Christian Science couple from Massachusetts who relied on prayer rather than on doctors as their young son lay dying from an obstructed bowel, were convicted of involuntary manslaughter last month. It was a stunning verdict, coming as it did in the very shadow of the Mother Church in Boston.
More in the link above.
There are many cases where parents prayed for god to save their children rather than taking them to a doctor, or a hospital.
Failure to thrive with infants used to be common.
If you look into history you may find culling was common.
In poverty stricken areas birth control may have been difficult.
Fortunately birth prevention and medical care has improved.
Are you suggesting that a 23 and me DNA test may provide information for copulators to think about using birth control?

M7.21 Add metadata to cover origin of bibliographies
Metadata and processing code added to RefBank to cover origin of bibliographies.
Use cases:
1) Bibliographies taken from a publication, in which case the origin is the bibliographic details of the original publication or (possibly) RefBank ID of original publication, which will be accurate but not human-user friendly.
2) Bibliographies contributed by a particular author, in which case, attribution of the bibliography is appropriate.
3) Bibliographies harvested from, or contributed by, existing resources such as ITIS, in which case the contributor is the short name of the existing bibliographic resource.
These ideas of origin could also be extended to attribute contributions made by people editing a reference.
This milestone was defined in M7.15.

Amoxicillin: 13 Burning Questions
Medically reviewed by L. Anderson, PharmD. Last updated on Aug 9, 2018.
1. Is Amoxicillin A Penicillin-Type Drug?
Amoxicillin is a common prescription antibiotic and one you have probably been prescribed. You know it: that pink suspension with a faint fruity smell you keep in the fridge, or those rather large tablets or capsules. It's a safe and useful drug with a long history, but nonetheless, there are specifics you should know before you embark on treatment.
How does it work? Amoxicillin, a member of the common aminopenicillin antibiotic class, acts as a beta-lactam antibiotic and kills bacteria by interfering with their cell wall growth. Ampicillin is also an aminopenicillin.
All beta-lactam antibiotics share a common structure in their chemistry called a beta-lactam ring. Penicillin-type drugs are a major breakthrough in the history of medicine, and are still widely used today.
2. Which Infections Can Amoxicillin Treat?
Amoxicillin is used alone or in combination for a variety of bacterial infections, which might include:
- Acute otitis media (ear infection)
- Group A Streptococcal pharyngitis
- H. Pylori eradication (as part of a multi-drug regimen for stomach ulcers)
- Skin and soft tissue infections
- Respiratory tract infections
- Lyme disease
- Dental infections/procedures
- Chlamydial infections in pregnant women
- Susceptible community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children
3. How Does Amoxicillin Come At the Pharmacy?
You may have received amoxicillin as a capsule, chewable tablet, or oral suspension at the pharmacy.
Amoxicillin (Moxatag) also comes in an extended-release tablet form taken only once per day for a painful strep throat.
Amoxicillin is also often prescribed in combination with the beta-lactamase inhibitor clavulanate (Augmentin) in an oral liquid suspension or tablet form. Beta-lactamase inhibitors help to prevent resistance and make the amoxicillin more effective. Amoxicillin/clavulanate also comes in chewable tablets and extended-release forms.
Kids will be happy that the suspension flavors include banana, orange, strawberry, and fruit, to make the medicine go down a little easier.
Isn't Resistance A Problem With Amoxicillin?
If you've received a prescription for amoxicillin with clavulanate (Augmentin), you may wonder why you need this extra added agent "clavulanate"? Clavulanate is a beta-lactamase inhibitor, and it works by preventing bacteria from destroying the active ingredient amoxicillin.
Some bacteria produce a beta-lactamase enzyme, which can cleave the beta-lactam chemical structure in antibiotics like penicillin or amoxicillin.
To fight resistance, beta-lactamase inhibitors like clavulanate are given with beta-lactam antibiotics to block the action of the beta-lactamase enzyme. Clavulanate given by itself is not effective as an antibiotic.
5. Can I Take Amoxicillin If I'm Allergic to Penicillin?
Allergy to penicillin is the most commonly reported drug allergy. You should not take amoxicillin if you are truly allergic to any penicillin antibiotic, such as ampicillin, oxacillin, or penicillin.
However, in one study, most patients who reported a penicillin allergy were not truly allergic. Certain allergies (such as anaphylaxis) can be life-threatening, while others may result in only a minor rash. In addition, in children, a rash may occur with certain infections around the same time the antibiotic is prescribed, and can be falsely attributed to the pencillin-type drug.
Report any allergy you have had to any medication, vitamin, inactive ingredient, or herbal supplement to your doctor. In situations where your treatment options are limited, or amoxicillin is the best or only option, an allergist may be able to perform oral or skin testing to determine if you are truly allergic to penicillin as a class.
6. Should I Avoid Alcohol When Taking Amoxicillin?
It is common to see an "Avoid Alcohol" label on prescription antibiotic bottles. This is not always because there may be a specific interaction between alcohol and the antibiotic, although there may be (see Table 1). Drinking alcohol while fighting an infection can also lead to dehydration and may hinder the body's natural ability to heal itself.
Many over-the-counter medications (OTCs), such as cough or cold syrups may also contain alcohol in the formulation. In general, most (but not all) antibiotics can be taken safely with small amounts of alcohol, but it's probably better to skip the drink until you've finished your antibiotic and you're feeling all better.
7. Will Amoxicillin Break My Bank?
In general, amoxicillin is very affordable.
Most brand names of the drug are no longer marketed in the U.S. and generics are the norm. In fact, certain pharmacies in the U.S. may even have some strengths of the generic antibiotic for free or at a $4 cost, although many of these low cost programs are now being discontinued. Nonetheless, the cost for amoxicillin should still be reasonable. Pricing is always variable, so check with your pharmacy directly. The pink oral suspension that is so often used in children should also be very inexpensive.
If you have insurance, you may find that the cash price without using insurance is cheaper than your copay, so be sure to ask your pharmacist. In fact, this may be the case for many generic drugs you buy, so double check. Discount coupons can be helpful, too.
8. I Have a Cold. Why Can't I Get an Antibiotic?
Many infections are caused by viruses, not bacteria. The common cold, the flu, sinusitis, and even most sore throats are viral in nature, and antibiotics simply do not work to kill viruses. Most viral illnesses do not need special medication and are "self-limiting", meaning your own immune system can fight off the illness.
Improper use of antibiotics to treat viral infections is leading to an epidemic of antibiotic resistance, and today doctors are very careful not to prescribe antibiotics when they are not needed. Not only will this worsen the resistance epidemic, it will also put you at risk for unnecessary side effects and drug costs. There is no reason to demand an antibiotic when you simply don't need it.
9. How Do I Use Amoxicillin?
Be sure to complete all of your medicine, even if you feel 100% better (unless otherwise directed by your doctor). You can develop antibiotic resistance if you do not finish all of your medication, not to mention you won't get better. You can take most forms of amoxicillin with food if it causes you an upset stomach.
- Amoxicillin and clavulanate (Augmentin) should be taken with food or milk, and Moxatag extended-release (ER) tablet and other high-dose amoxicillins should be taken within 1 hour of a meal.
- Be sure not to crush, cut or chew the ER tablets; you want to maintain the ER matrix within the tablet to allow the antibiotic to disperse over time.
- Shake the oral suspensions well, and keep refrigerated, if recommended on the label.
- Go here to find general dosing information for your speicifc antibiotic.
10. Does Amoxicillin Lower the Effectiveness of Hormonal Contraceptives?
There is no evidence that extra birth control measures are needed with antibiotics unless you are taking the antibiotic rifampin or rifabutin. Rifampin treats tuberculosis and rifabutin is used for Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection in those with HIV. Other antibiotics have not been shown to make the pill less effective; however, some prescribers may still recommend that you use an added method of birth control (condom) to your hormonal method during and for one week after antibiotic treatment.
According to Columbia University, some women who experience irregular periods, diarrhea, vomiting, or stomach disorders when taking antibiotics may also want to consider using back-up options, like a condom, as these factors may lower the effectiveness of hormonal birth control. A few other medications may also lower the effectiveness of birth control. Always have your pharmacist run a drug interaction screen any time you start or stop a prescription medication, herbal supplement, or any over-the-counter drug.
Remember, birth control pills fail at least 1% of the time even in ideal conditions. According to Planned Parenthood, "the main thing that makes the pill not work is not taking it every day." See Planned Parenthood for more information.
11. What About Side Effects With Amoxicillin?
In general, amoxicillin is tolerated very well. However, some patients do have stomach upset, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea when using amoxicillin.
A probiotic taken with the amoxicillin may help to decrease the occurrence of loose stools if this is common for you with antibiotic treatment. Some reactions can be rare, but serious, and if you have any of these amoxicillin side effects be sure to contact a healthcare provider immediately:
- Severe allergies, anaphylaxis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome
- Liver toxicity
- Easy bruising or bleeding
- Red or white patches in mouth
- Stomach pain or cramps, very loose or watery stools, or bloody stools (pseudomembranous colitis)
12. Is It One Dose Fits All?
The usual adult dose range for amoxicillin is 250 to 500 milligrams (mg) every 8 hours, or 500 to 875 mg every 12 hours, or one 775 mg extended-release tablet once daily. Your doctor may adjust these doses based on your specific infection or if you have reduced kidney function.
The extended-release and high dose amoxicillin forms should be avoided if you have severe kidney impairment. Risk factors for chronic kidney disease include:
- diabetes
- high blood pressure
- heart disease
- smoking
- obesity
- high cholesterol
- age over 65
- being African-American, Native American or Asian-American
- a family history of kidney disease
13. Amoxicillin: Is It Safe in Pregnancy and Breastfeeding?
Your doctor and your baby's pediatrician should always have the final say on any medication you use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. However, in general, amoxicillin is considered safe in both situations if a women needs an antibiotic during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the doctor feels that the benefit outweighs the risk to mother and baby.
Amoxicillin is also considered acceptable while nursing; however, rash, diarrhea or thrush -- a yeast infection of your infant's mouth -- may occur infrequently, so double check with your pediatrician if you have concerns.
Bottom Line on Amoxicillin Use
Amoxicillin is a safe and affordable antibiotic; however, it is not the right antibiotic for all infections. It is important not to share your antibiotics with anyone. An antibiotic is prescribed specifically for you and your particular type of bacterial infection.
When you receive an antibiotic at the pharmacy, take the time to review the directions and warning labels. If you have phenylketonuria PKU, talk with your doctor. Some amoxicillin products may contain phenylalanine. Follow your doctor's directions and finish all of your medication, even when you feel completely well.
Finally, don't demand an antibiotic from your doctor if you have a viral infection, like a cold or flu -- they simply don't work and may even worsen your virus. Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and allow your body the time to heal and utilize your own immune system.

Nicholas Andre Dance
by Victoria Dombroski
December 20, 2009 -- Joyce Theater Soho, New York, NY
I was amazed by my eagerness to dart my eyes from dancer to dancer around the stage, in suspense of how and where each individual would move next in this arrangement of pieces choreographed by Nick Ross. This particular kind of engagement with the audience and energy that the Nicholas Andre dancers exuded was remarkable. These talented artists, as well as athletes, performed in such a way that I was truly hooked to follow their stream of energy wherever it took them next.
The first piece, "Wired," set to the music of Steve Reich, was, in keeping with its title, full of electricity, with passion radiating from the dancers' movement quality and directional patterns covering the entirety of the stage. I had a sense of frenzy watching this, and the costumes contributed to this sense: black unitards with a lime-green pattern of lines going in every direction. The dancers executed the movements with such strength and power, so many graceful and beautiful landings from such extravagant jumps and turns preceding it. There were motions throughout this dance where a very quick, small, sharp movement would be performed after such a long extent of constant motion. The pause after the small sharp movement was so engaging, especially when the dancers made eye contact with the audience or with each other. This continued to create a sense of wonder and interest that wrapped me into the piece even further. It gave a sense of the sparks amidst all the flowing energy.
"Undercurrent" was danced to an extremely beautiful piece of music by Arvo Part "Speigel Im Speigel." The music alone was so expressive, and with the culmination of fluid, reaching, space occupying movement, it was impossible to take my eyes off the dancers. In deep red costumes, two men sat on the floor as the women moved in flowing steps. The men and women paired off and partnered with each other in various lifts and interactions. There was an immense beauty to the two couples performing different choreography simultaneously, portraying a feeling of give and take, struggle and peace, but the peace didn't last. At one point all four artists met in the center and there was a time of unison, understanding, perhaps comfort in the same sentiment releasing from all four bodies and souls. But then the emotion changed again, and one perceived an inner struggle and a battle against oneself. In the choreography there was a repetition of the arms reaching out, moving all the way from stage right to left, with the palms facing the audience. It was as if the dancers were saying "this is who we are, these are our inner struggles exposed, accept it or don't." This piece left me aching and solemn. It was breathtaking.
"Elegy" was another world premiere by these talented artists that was set to the music of Phillip Glass. The dancers moved together, yet each dancer had an individual quality and sense of loneliness. The light purple costumes and dim lighting set a somber mood, and the dancing fulfilled that with movements of grace and elegance. The dancers executed the jumps and turns with ease and effortlessness. There were times when one dancer would attempt to interact with the others, but in return was no reaction. It was as if they were the only one present, and nothing they did could make any other dancer acknowledge their presence. This contrast of one dancer moving and struggling while the other dancers were in complete stillness amplified the contrast and struggle. It concluded with the bodies dragged close together overlapping, and as the lights dimmed, the last standing dancer knelt and slowly lowered his head, giving a sense of either defeat or relief, depending on how you individually perceived it.
The most lighthearted of the dances was "Until Blue," danced to a piece of music by the Vitamin String Quartet. The backdrop was a bright blue sky with clouds, giving these dancers an even greater a sense of lift and buoyancy. The total distance of ground these dancers must have covered throughout this piece could have gotten them through a half marathon. The movement was continuous, and as dancers exited and entered the stage I was eager to see in what direction they would fly next. There was a sheer enjoyment of motion through air, especially at the very end when the dancers all landed flat on the ground, in complete relief and happiness. It portrayed the pleasure of living, movement through space, and the ability to use the body to express oneself. What we saw from these artists was pure love of dance and the wonderful ability to share that gift with others.
