Minister of State for Tourism & Sport Michael Ring has urged anyone interested in the Gathering Ireland 2013 to head along to one of the last three Town Hall meetings being held over the next two weeks in Mayo, Limerick, and Kerry.
Some 7,000 people have attended 52 of these meetings since they kicked off in June, including at least 5,000 people in the last two months. Some 600 new Gathering events are now being planned at community level.
"The Town Hall meetings have been a great success. Thousands of people have attended, and loads of great events and Gatherings have been identified. The whole point of these meetings was to get communities involved right across Ireland, and the response has been tremendous," Minister Ring said.
"I'm delighted that so many people took the opportunity to find out more, and to see how their families, businesses and communities can be part of it all. I would urge people everywhere to start making plans for their own Gatherings."
These meetings are an opportunity for people to find out how they can get involved in the Gathering, and see how it can benefit their own region. They have also generated loads of new ideas:
International Garda Festival, Longford – Ireland's first Ban Garda came from Co. Longford and a Gathering is being planned to invite female police officers to Longford from across the world to participate.
Dig Deep in Castlecomer – A Gathering is being organised in Castlecomer to invite miners and people whose family members worked in the Castlecomer mines to come back for a reunion in 2013 and record their stories for posterity.
Lighthouse Keepers' Reunion – Hook Lighthouse is one of the world's most famous and photographed lighthouses. A gathering of lighthouse keepers from all over the world is being planned, including a visit to the lighthouse, is being planned by Wexford communities.
Gathering Ireland Project Director Jim Miley said: 'The momentum is really building for the Gathering and the community meetings really were a big part of this. There are over 600 Gatherings already planned and so many of those great ideas came directly out of the Community meetings. I would encourage people to extend an invitation to people they know overseas to come to their gathering. Big or small, corporate or community these gatherings will benefit communities.'
The final three Gathering Ireland 2013 Town Hall meetings are taking place as follows:
Wednesday 17th October, The Broadhaven Bay Hotel, Belmullet, Co. Mayo;
Tuesday 23rd October, Limerick Strand Hotel, Limerick;
Thursday 25th October, The Dingle Skellig Hotel, Kerry.
All are invited and encouraged to attend and take this opportunity to get involved in The Gathering Ireland 2013, or to get further information on the Gathering Ireland 2013, and find out how you can plan a Gathering in your local community.

Kraft Foodservice Shares Trend Predictions for 2012
Kraft Foodservice's seven pedigreed culinarians share 12 insightful trend predictions on what will shape foodservice over the next 12 months.
Boasting seven pedigreed culinarians with decades of collective foodservice experience Kraft Foodservice, a division of Kraft Foods Global Inc., recently shared 12 insightful trend predictions on what will shape foodservice over the next 12 months.
Bolstered by yearlong analysis of internal food casts and menu insights, the chefs at Kraft Foodservice work in the trenches every day, distilling today's relevant trends and developing hundreds of workable recipes for its customers.
Customization Reigns -- "Customization allows you to create a unique interaction with your diner," says Freeman Moser III, senior executive chef. "I saw Pine & Gilmore deliver a lecture years ago about mass customization, where they stressed the need in recognizing that customers are 'markets of one.' That resonates deeply in today's foodservice culture. Fast casuals are succeeding here: Panera Bread's 'You Pick 2' is a great example of allowing diners to choose their experience. QSRs are getting into the game. For example, boutique burger chains are carving a niche because of that customization, where they're willing to jeopardize efficiencies for that point of difference.
Independent operators are poised to make the biggest impression here -- from letting diners customize their whole experience through small-bites menus to choosing cooking techniques for their proteins. I saw this at an independent, where diners were asked to choose their fish, then choose how they'd like it prepared: grilled, pan-fried, poached, blackened, etc. But certain fish shouldn't be poached, and blackening sea bass is heresy! So, the takeaway is that customization is a sustaining trend, but still requires culinary guidance."
Vintage Desserts -- "I see county-fair favorites and carnival fare continuing to gain traction on menus," says Patty Mitchell, C.M.B., senior executive chef. "Think funnel cakes and caramel-apple flavored ice cream, malts and milk shakes, cotton candy and marshmallows. Street-food influences, too, like churros and hand pies. I think the vintage desserts that will succeed this year are the ones that answer the craving: If your diner is looking for a red-velvet cake, keep it true to red velvet. Of course, updating is good, but I wouldn't make a red-velvet mousse because without a cake component, they aren't getting what they're looking for. You have to satisfy the craving while making yours distinct."
Mitchell also predicts more Ethnic Desserts -- "Food trucks are driving ethnic creations in bricks-and-mortars restaurants," she says. "I'm seeing ethnic flavors influencing dessert recipes -- lemongrass syrup, Vietnamese spice, Mexican chilies. And classic ethnic desserts like flan and tiramisu have given way to tres leches and affogatos. They're appearing on menus, but with fun variations and interpretations. I think this year we'll see hints of ethnic flavors that don't overpower desserts -- familiar but with an ethnic twist."

Specialization -- "I think we're going to see more concepts that specialize in one thing," says Ryan Baxter, senior executive R&D chef. "We've already seen them pop up here and there: storefronts that only serve grilled-cheese sandwiches, cereals, soups, even rice puddings. But I think we'll find even more this year. It's not a new trend -- it's a return to specialization. In our food history, there was a time when folks did only one thing: There was the miller who milled the flour, the butcher, and the cheesemonger. Then we evolved into a culture that looked for 'something for everybody.' But diners are tired of that, so foodservice, I think, is now moving away from trying to be everything to everybody and back to specialization. Customization marks a return to culinary artistry and craftsmanship."
Another trend identified by Baxter is Fusion 2.0 -- "Fusion is an American phenomenon," he says. "First, it came out of California and Hawaii with Polynesian influences, and then Florida with the invention of Floribbean cuisine. French melding with Vietnamese was also one of the first successful ventures into fusion. Now, fusion 2.0 has brought refinement and more experimentation, with chefs pulling from all global cuisines and seeing what works. Successes include Korean fused with Mexican. Rules are now broader and influences extend beyond professional chefs: food enthusiasts and bloggers mix things up, too. Molecular gastronomy has brought technique and ingredients, like agar and lecithin, into fusion cookery. We should expect more global fusion this year. More experimentation."
Casualization of menus -- "I think this is one of those trends that will inform foodservice for a long time to come," says Aliza Katz, corporate executive chef, adding, "The Culinary Institute of America even made it the theme of its last Worlds of Flavor conference. Diners seek value, but want memorable, delicious food. They're looking for casual over white tablecloth, but won't sacrifice the experience. Flavors drive the ship here: authentic, layered flavors. I think we're going to see more menus designed to reflect casualization, encouraging experimentation through small-bites menus. Street food's a big influence here, encouraging chefs to leap borders and feature global flavors."

It is possible that the main title of the report Wyburn Mason Syndrome is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Wyburn-Mason syndrome is an extremely rare nonhereditary disorder that is present at birth (congenital). Affected infants have arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), which are developmental abnormalities affecting the blood vessels, specifically the arteries, veins and capillaries. Arteries typically carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to body cells, while veins transport oxygen-deficient blood to the heart and lungs for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The network of very tiny blood vessels (capillaries) that normally connects arteries and veins may be absent and the arteries and veins may be directly linked together. Larger AVMs may consist of a tangled mass of abnormal or malformed blood vessels. AVMs associated with Wyburn-Mason syndrome are usually found in the eyes and midbrain. The exact cause of Wyburn-Mason syndrome is unknown.

Gastrointestinal Cancers
About the Cancer
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers remain among the most fatal cancers. Advances in treatment have lagged well behind other disease priorities such as breast cancer because of a smaller pool of research funding and fewer survivors to carry the torch of advocacy.
The Otto J. Ruesch Center for the Cure of Gastrointestinal Cancers at Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center and MedStar Georgetown University Hospital focuses on national efforts on curing this deadly set of diseases. Combining expertise in molecular medicine, translational research, and a patient-centered philosophy, the Ruesch Center realizes the dream of individualized curative therapies through research, care, and advocacy.
From the National Cancer Institute at the National Institutes of Health, find current information and resources on gastrointestinal cancers, incidence and survival statistics, treatment options, causes and prevention, coping strategies, clinical trials and research.

Cancer Research
Finding a Cure: The Ruesch Center for the Cure of Gastrointestinal Cancers
Dramatic improvements in molecular biology have lead to a better understanding of what makes cancers "tick," new anti-cancer agents are being developed at an unprecedented pace, new technologies allow us to measure the many variables quickly and accurately, and improvements in bio-informatics allow us to analyze the resulting data sets. These improvements are the foundation of personalized medicine, the only way forward in the quest to cure cancer.
Georgetown Lombardi's world-renowned research faculty are discovering cancer risk factors, designing effective prevention strategies, and learning how to detect cancers earlier. They are developing and testing the cancer treatments of tomorrow — targeted therapies that will improve both survival and quality of life. They are making progress toward the ultimate goal: to eradicate cancer.

Port Arthur police are currently investigating a kidnapping that resulted in the sexual assault of a young woman taken from her residence on Sixth Street in Port Arthur on Wednesday night.
Police reported the 19-year-old victim was at her home when a 34-year-old man she knew from Facebook showed up and asked to to talk to him outside. The young woman stepped out and got into the man's car, according to a news release from police, and the man immediately drove away with the victim inside the vehicle. The man drove with the woman to Lake Jackson, sexually assaulting her along the way, police reported.
Investigators immediately started interviewing potential witnesses in search of the missing woman. Lake Jackson police and Brazoria County Sheriff's deputies joined the search, and the suspect was identified. Officers reported they isolated a location, but when they arrived found an empty apartment. According to the news release, police believe the man discovered police were looking for him and drove the victim to an area near the Texas Medical Center. At approximately 2:50 p.m. on Aug. 5, the victim presented at the Texas Children's Hospital. She made contact with a Houston police officer working at the facility and reported the attack.
Detectives of the Lake Jackson Police Department interviewed the suspect but did not arrest him, stating in the press release they believe the man is not a flight risk and the victim is "no longer in danger."
Police have refused further comment on the investigation due to the sensitive nature of the case and out of respect for the victim. Police request the community respect the privacy of the victim, who suffered minor injuries as a result of the attack.

Pete's Outdoor Room
Name: Pete Lamberty
Location: Bellwood, Illinois
Inspired by his garden walks though Chicago, Pete decided to create his own "outdoor room" out of an unused second story balcony.
From Pete:
I thought that building a pergola would be a perfect way to define the space and enclose the area. The balcony is about seven feet by nine feet and is on the south side of the house. I finished the space late last August so this is the first full growing season for the plants. It's still a work in progress and little by little it has become a very nice little sanctuary for us.
Thanks, Pete!

have you seen my pride and joy?
one of the first observations my S.O. made about mi casa , was that i have very few personal photos around the old beach bungalow. he of the: refrigerator covered in 'party pics' of friends and family. he of the, on every surface lets have lots o' framed photos. later, he took it personally that i never put a framed photo of us next to my bed. nothing personal my love. i just don't really decorate with personal photos. i don't like a ton of photo clutter everywhere. i don't know why i don't. i mean, i do, but they're all kept on one wall. very art directed and orderly. so my question, do you decorate with personal photos? and in what way? in a group on a table? slid beneath a frame around a mirror? on the refrigerator? do tell......
this just in from reader and fellow blogger rowhousecreative her lovely hallway-nicely done!~
that magical fruit...
check these crazy beans out: each bean has a word lasered onto one side, and a complementary image on the other. All one has to do to see the "message" is grow the bean. The recipient simply pulls off the foil top and bottom piece (to let the water drain), and adds about ½ cup of water to the soil. In about a week or so, the bean will poke thru the soil revealing the special message.
isn't that cool? found here spoonsisters

Blythe, the creepy and mysterious doll with the big head and moveable eyes (there's a string behind her back). Introduced in the 70's and quickly pulled from the market because she scared kids, has resurfaced due to one woman's obsession. (i sort of think that steve madden was inspired by blythe dolls for his print ads) check this woman out. she looks like rhoda morgenstern.

alli gerrish-mixed media artist
remember my old friend alli ? the one with the kick ass lake house? (that's us-in the mid 90s - nice coat.) she also is an exquisite artist. and who knew. i mean she was just another ad producer, running around san francisco in doc martens.....and then decided to start painting. and boy can this girl paint:
really, beautiful mixed media paintings.
this is such a good lesson for all of us, try something new everyday. you may just be the best painter, violinist, samba dancer, juggler, baton twirler, worm farmer, stripper (wanted to see if you were still reading) surfer, writer out there. you'll never know until you try! alli's work is shown frequently in and around the denver area. or you can see her website to purchase your very own. " I am interested in one life touched at a time. Art can be a great teacher for daily life and can connect people in a way that technology cannot. We all dream in color. We just need to remember to take the time to see…"

i love a great glass cloche.
anything given a little glass dome of its own, suddenly becomes special.
birds words and more: the art of charley harper
"Charley Harper is an American original who created his art from his home studio in Cincinnati, Ohio - until his death on June 10, 2007 at the age of 84. He is beloved for his delightful, graphic and often humorous illustrations of nature, animals, insects and people alike. Charley liked to say, that when he paints a bird, he doesn't count all the feathers in the wings – he just counts the wings. Minimal realism, he called it, and his unique and precise style continues to resonate and inspire his admirers".
(and btw, with all due respect, how cute is he? you know he had a great sense of humor. you can just tell)AMMO books.

the gucci ballet, ankle strap
this makes me excited about fall.... so is it really back to the opaque tights? hmm. ok, i'd be game if i lived in a cold climate. what's old is new again. i love this shoe but i may want it peeking from a pair of trouser cut jeans, when i cross my leg.
home spun
while my tastes don't generally gravitate toward colonial anything or homespun, apple pie williamsburg, i think a little thrown in here and there can be a great touch. a bit quirky even. in the right environment. this is hawaiian from the 1930s. really quite stunning. it's in pristine condition.
how about insta ancestors? these are fantastic.sofa schwing! a little bit of the men's grill makes for a great sofa choice. all of these were found at east meets west antiques.

peter harper
being the youngest of five, talented siblings, i know what it's like to be in somebody else's shadow. imagine what it would be like if you were, say, the younger sibling of a grammy award winning hotty singer (ben harper)? i mean, your talent and looks rival his but, by the nature of his career choice, he gets more ink. peter harper creates beautiful, spiritual art. working in clay, wax and bronze, using techniques dating back to the ancient Egyptians, he cuts, scrapes, heats and polishes until each sculpture is revealed and its story told. some of my favorites are these groovy belt buckles (i'm a sucker for a big brass buckle--and the back story is terrific here) Peter's collectors include meg ryan, laura dern, courtney and david Arquette. Peter's work can be seen at peterharperart.com.
or you can see peter and peter's work in person at the rico garcia fine art-opening september 22nd 7-10 p.m.-1599 superior avenue, costa mesa, cai would like to sincerely thank the woman (ellen chase-verdries) who brought these men into the world. not only did she raise some good boys (there's another son, 'joel') but she is the daughter of the claremont folk music center founders. with the help of her son, ben, the folk center continues to be a venue for folk singers and musicians. the apple never falls far from the tree.

i'm so waisted
you're going to think i'm insane. i love a fanny pack. no seriously. i have a fanny pack, that i wear and love.no, no, not the kind seen on matching couples at the amusement park (even though the above photo was taken at disneyland-try and ignore that, as i continue to try and convince you). but this fabulous custom made one:hammitt. but i've had my eye on these gucci versions:
i must hop in here and tell you, i've seen prada's version of this. and....it's no bueno. it looks like the fanny pack 'don't' above but with the little prada logo tag slapped on. the louis vuitton version. no. it just doesn't translate like this one. (you know, the more i look at this one, i think it's a fake) some of you may be reading this with eyebrow raised. but this is chic i'm telling you! it's chic and completely efficient. just don't wear it with your matching running suit.

Imagine sitting in the cockpit of an X-15 rocket plane at six times the speed of sound—one mile per second—and have this happen. Just a day at work in 1961 for test pilot Bob White.
White was a World War 2 and Korean War fighter ace who became a test pilot at Edwards Air Force Base after his combat career, and was the Air Force's chief pilot for the X–15 program. That black rocket plane which has held the speed record for manned airplanes since 1967 at Mach 6.7.
The day was November 9, 1961. The X–15 was mid-engined, just like the Ferrari Sharknose which won the Formula One world championship that year, but instead of a 190 HP 1.5-liter V6, the engine was an XLR99 rocket, developing 70,000 pounds of thrust at altitude, just a hair less than the Redstone rocket which delivered the first two Mercury spacecraft to sub-orbit. Just imagine. You're sitting there, right in front of this giant rocket engine at full throttle, covering a mile every second, when pop, there goes your windshield, er, canopy. And then you get lucky because the pieces don't blow out.
White landed the plane and became the first man to pilot his way beyond Mach 6. Next summer, he flew the X–15 into space—the first man to do so in a piloted craft. And unlike the many, many test pilots who did not survive their jobs in the '50s and the '60s, White lived on to a ripe old age. He passed away last Wednesday at 85.

The largest Memorial Day crowd in Hood River's recent history gathered at Idlewild Cemetery Monday to honor the nation's fallen war heroes.
Brightly colored flags and floral wreaths created a sharp contrast with the mercurial weather and the somber mood that was reflected in the faces of between 200-300 citizens in attendance. Soloist Anita Decker moved many audience members to tears with her a capella performance of the National Anthem.
"This ceremony is dedicated to those who offered their lives that freedom, justice and democracy might endure forever," said keynote speaker Rodger Schock. "These folks gave their lives so that we can raise our kids in an environment where they can practice their religion, say what they think and lead the good life that we all know."
Standing at attention throughout the 90-minute event were members of the Veteran and Auxiliary Color Guard and Oregon National Honor Guard, which fired rifles in a finale salute.
"This has been a very, very difficult year for America, for citizens in and out of uniform," said chaplain Dennis Leonard during a benediction that included the brief reference to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the East Coast. Leonard also recited the poem "Just a Common Soldier" during his invocation that spoke of the courage shouldered without fanfare by the average citizen who was called to fight for his or her nation.
The American flag snapped in a brisk breeze above the first-ever mixed chorus which took the risers set up around the Veterans Statute to sing seven patriotic songs. The Friends and Neighbors choir — named after the header in past draft notices — was formed by Schock and led by Judy Ferguson, choir director of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Hood River.
"Take a good look at this choir because they represent you, they are people from all walks of life, from all practices of faith," Schock told the crowd before leaving the podium to add his voice to the 70-member group. The patriotic performance was underscored with a dramatic flyover by the Oregon Air National Guard, a visual reminder of the vigilant military forces at work to defend the nation against further tragedy on its shores.
During the May 27 ceremony, 11 more bronze plaques were added to the "Walk of Honor," which lines the path to the Veterans Statute. Last year, Schock laid the first 11 markers for service men and women who have been cremated and do not have testimonials elsewhere.
Poppy wreaths — the red flower symbolizing blood spilled on the battlefield — were placed on these plaques and in front of white crosses that represented the many men and women who had died in service to their country.
Schock asked the crowd to show their respect for that sacrifice with a moment of silence.
"This is a time to think about why your sons and daughters and other family members who are lying under flags have done what they have done," he said.
Schock called for a round of applause for veterans standing in the crowd and for parents of children who were currently on a tour of duty with the United States military.
"You have our heartfelt thanks," Schock said.

Al Jefferson matched a career-high with 40 points on 19-of-27 from the field to go along with 13 rebounds and a season-high six assists to lead the Utah Jazz to a crucial 107-100 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves at EnergySolutions Arena.
Jefferson's final two baskets of the evening were the difference for Utah, which trailed 98-97 with just under four minutes left in the game.
"I felt like it started with me," Jefferson said. "I figured if I kept doing my job on the block I would get my teammates open shots."
The Jazz are just one game behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the eighth spot in the Western Conference after the Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors on Friday.
Mo Williams and Randy Foye netted 16 points apiece for Utah, which won despite turning the ball over 18 times while forcing just 10 Minnesota miscues.
J.J. Barea shot 9-of-10 from the foul line and paced Minnesota with 23 points off the bench. Ricky Rubio added 13 points.
Trailing 97-90 with 5:19 remaining, Minnesota gained some momentum after Barea drew a flagrant foul from Jazz big man Derrick Favors. Barea sunk the free throws, followed by consecutive Rubio triples.
Jefferson responded with two mid-range jumpers, the Jazz stepped up the intensity defensively, and Williams put the game away with four makes from the free throw stripe.
"He made a lot of shots, but yes, he is physical," Minnesota coach Rick Adelman said of Jefferson. "Al made a lot of jump shots tonight, too. He faced up and knocked down shots."
The Jazz finished the first quarter on a 15-8 surge, capped by Gordon Heyward's running 3-pointer, which he banked in with less than a second left.
They were unable to carry that momentum into the second period however, as Minnesota took a 54-53 lead into halftime. Barea and Chase Budinger combined for 23 points in the quarter, matching Utah's entire output.
Jefferson started and finished the third quarter with baskets, each of which gave the Jazz a one-point lead. Minnesota led for the duration of the period otherwise.
Rubio was the lone Wolves' starter to score in the fourth quarter.
Game Notes
Wolves' center Nikola Pekovic missed the game with a left calf contusion ... Minnesota shot 20-of-21 from the foul line ... The Jazz shot 58.3 percent from the field and 61.5 percent from behind the arc.

text: Emma Stone has wanted to be the next Steve Martin since she was 4. To that end, she regularly performed improv at the local Valley Youth Theatre and convinced her parents to homeschool her at 12 to free up time for auditions with a foam-board presentation. By 15, she knew she could only get so far in Arizona so she made a PowerPoint to persuade her parents to move to LA. They agreed and she spent a couple of years auditioning unsuccessfully for every Disney Channel series and sitcom daughter while working at a dog bakery. By 2006, she had a few TV projects under her belt ("Malcolm In The Middle," "Medium") and losing the "Heroes" cheerleader roll to Hayden Panettiere made her serendipitously available for her big break, "Superbad," which also turned the natural blonde into a crushable ginger and Hollywood's go-to sassy ingenue. On its heels, she scored "The Rocker," "House Bunny," "Zombieland," and her first lead gig in "Easy A" (2010). That job led the recovering "Farmville" addict to fulfilling her biggest dream of hosting "Saturday Night Live." She had a banner year in 2011 starring in three consecutive mega-hits ("Friends with Benefits," "Crazy, Stupid, Love," and "The Help"), becoming a face of Revlon, and being cast as Gwen Stacy in The Spider-Man reboots. It wasn't long before this ex of Kieran Culkin and Teddy Geiger had fallen for her onscreen superhero beau, Andrew Garfield, in real life.

LONG BEACH, Calif. - UC Santa Barbara starting pitcher Mario Hollands suffered his shortest start of the season and the Gauchos could never climb out of the early hole as Long Beach State racked up 19 hits in a 12-1 win on Friday night at Blair Field.
Hollands, the Gaucho ace who has averaged nearly 7.2 innings per start this season, lasted just 3.1 innings on Friday night, allowing 10 runs on 15 hits. The lefty didn't strike out a batter.
UCSB dropped its fourth game in a row and falls to 16-16 overall and 3-4 in the Big West. Long Beach State is now 17-17, 5-5.
Meanwhile, Long Beach State sophomore Andrew Gagnon struck out six over seven innings, while allowing just the Gauchos' lone run.
The fireworks started immediately for Long Beach State in the first. Brennan Metzger started the first with a single to extend his hitting streak, and after a single by Devin Lohman, Metzger would score to get The Beach on the board. Two more runs would score on a bases loaded double from Tinoco to give the Dirtbags a 3-0 lead.
Leadoff doubles in the second and third innings led to two more runs for Long Beach State, and the Dirtbags really broke the game open for good in the next inning. Kirk Singer hit his fourth home run of the season, a solo shot to begin the fourth, and Joey Terdoslavich followed with a base hit prior to a triple from Jones to make the score 7-0. Three more singles would follow as the Dirtbags had five straight hits off of Hollands to take a 10-0 lead before the fifth inning.
The Gauchos lone run came in the sixth inning when Sean Williams singled to lead off the inning. After a walk, an RBI single by Marty Mullins got UCSB on the board. The Dirtbags added another run in the eighth inning to account for the final total.
The teams return to Blair Field for game two on Saturday. First pitch is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Saturday's and Sunday's games can be heard on AM 1490 and streaming live online at UCSBgauchos.com.

Lady Gaga Celebrates Monster Ball Birthday by Revisting Classic Fame Ball Look
What's old is new again with Lady Gaga. In honor of the birthday of her star-making turn on the Monster Ball Tour – not to be confused with her current Born This Way Ball world tour -- the Mother Monster revisited her classic The Fame Ball look and style from a previous period of her career, including a short, blond bob with heavy bangs, huge, eye-obscuring shades and a leather ensemble. Doesn't she look stunning?
We absolutely love the short, '20s flapper girl hair. It looks gorge on her!
And is usually the case with Gaga, the singer was still fabulous and fresh, in terms of her fashion, even though she revisited a past look, something she doesn't do very often, since she's always exploring new ways to shock us.
Gaga shared the news of her "celebration" on Twitter, posting:
Today is the bday of THE MONSTER BALL! I remember i was broke, living show to show. Then LiveNation gave me a contract that changed my life.
She then shared her rationale for going back in time.
To celebrate this day @faspiras and I are bringing back THE FAME BALL hair, my first professional club tour. blond bangs, glasses, leather.
Ma Monster captioned the photo in a way that connected her to her fans, who got here where she is, including the ones in South Africa that she had not previously met.
Since I never got to come here until now, I wanted monsters to feel like it was the first time we met. Such a happy day pic.

While American consumers are eagerly awaiting HTC's second Android phone(myTouch 3G), the company's third phone the Hero is launching overseas. The internals are almost identical to the myTouch 3G, but the phone sports an updated casing design and comes loaded with the new HTC Sense user interface.
We thought we would take a look at the early reviews since US customers won't be able to purchase the phone for awhile. T-Mobile recently mentioned at their New York press conference that they would not be launching the Hero, but another carrier like AT&T could pick up the device.
It's clear this is the best Android phone yet (we know that's not hard to do given there's only three, but this is a big improvement over the Magic).
However, there were lows, and some of them were pretty deep indeed. The 528MHz processor doesn't seem to be grunty enough to power all the multi-tasking the phone needs to do.
The camera quality was also laughable, both in terms of video recording and photography.
In one sense the Hero is "just another Android phone"; in another sense, it's an entirely new direction for HTC and the platform.
In general the Sense UI is a triumph. It's that good. They've made Android amazingly usable and that's quite exciting.
The Hero is well-designed, usable, and powerful. The OS and UI combo is almost perfect and the future is bright for the phones running Sense.
Up top there's a welcome addition to an HTC Android device, in the shape of a 3.5mm headphones socket, while on the base there's the company's own ExtUSB port (which is compatible with standard mini-USB).
What elevates People above and beyond the standard Android address book is its integration with Facebook and Flickr. By entering your login details for one or both, People automatically tries to match up contacts you have on those networks with entries in your address book.
Android's flexibility is, arguably, one of its biggest stumbling blocks; out of the box there's little to guide a new owner through the platform's capabilities. By introducing Sense, however, HTC have made the Hero instantly usable, and they've done so not with the bare minimum of app investment but with a range of programs that offer up-to-date functionality like social network integration.
The HTC Hero is as much a champion for HTC as it is for Android: It's the first genuinely gorgeous piece of hardware running Android, and the Sense UI is the most ambitious, polished software HTC has developed yet.
The Hero is flawed, though, in ways that are truly depressing in light of its potential and how much it does get truly right: It's often sluggish, which absolutely destroys the user experience.
HTC's done a fairly remarkable job transforming Android's rough surface into something slick and glossy and palatable while integrating social networking features that go beyond any phone but the Pre.
While its predecessors ran Google's mobile OS in its barebones form, the Hero glosses it with HTC's new 'Sense' UI, adds multi-touch support and brings a strong feature set that includes a 5MP camera. The result is the closest thing we've seen to an iPhone-beating experience.
Support for multi-touch 'pinch to zoom' gestures is also welcome, with our only quibble being that scrolling around web pages isn't quite iPhone-smooth (though again this may be pre-production cobwebs).
With a battery life that's not class-leading but certainly adequate (we got a day and half from moderate use) all that remains is for Android's Marketplace to fill up its shelves with more compelling apps.
The Verdict
Overall, it looks like the Hero is getting positive reviews. Some have criticized the phone for its sluggish performance, but I expect this to be resolved by future software updates. The new Sense UI looks to be a smash hit, which is good news for Android phones as it is likely to appear on other devices. HTC has raised the bar for the Android platform and it will be interesting to see how Motorola and Sony Ericsson respond later this year with their custom versions of Android.
Check out the following series of videos designed for new Hero users. (HTC has an awesome YouTube channel)

AIKEN, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) – Close isn't close enough. That's what Director Dr. Gary J. Senn at the Ruth Patrick Science Center at USC Aiken wants you to know.
"That's what makes the total solar eclipse so rare, only a certain segment of people can see it, and even less can see totality," said Dr. Senn.
Totality's path will cross the entire U.S. from Oregon to South Carolina. But there's only a small band of that path where the moon will completely block the sun.
"At about 2:40 p.m., so an hour and a half or so into it, we'll get to totality," said Senn, "For us, the maximum time for totality will be about 2 minutes and 30 seconds."
That's less than 3 minutes that you may never see again. For those viewing the eclipse right on the edge of totality, only 99% of the total eclipse will be visible. But Dr. Senn says that 1% difference is actually much bigger than you think.
"Even at 99%, that sliver of the sun is going to be too bright for you to see the corona, so you'll miss that whole piece," said Dr. Senn.
The corona is the only phase of the eclipse where you can look into the sky without any eyewear. Beyond that though, Dr. Senn says you can't miss it.
"It's dramatic, the difference in darkness between totality and 99% partial," said Dr. Senn
The eclipse will be beautiful no matter where you are, but enthusiasts don't want those who live right on the edge to waste a golden opportunity.
"Get into Totality, that's the place you need to be for the Great American solar eclipse," said Dr. Senn.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Lipscomb Lady Bisons are just happy to be in the six-team field for the Atlantic Sun Conference Tennis Championships.
Thursday afternoon at 11 a.m. the No. 6-seeded Lady Bisons, 10-10, 3-5 in the conference, will face Florida Gulf Coast, the No. 3 seed with a 13-7 overall record, 6-2 in the A-Sun.
The tournament is being played on North Florida's campus.
This is the first time the Lady Bisons have qualified for the conference tournament. Aid is confident it won't be their last.
"We were very process-minded this year," first year head coach Jamie Aid said. "We have used the word `finish' all year. We have not let up. You have to finish in practice before you can finish a match."
Both teams have put together strong seasons. The 10 victories by the Lady Bisons this season are the most for the program since the NCAA era began. The six conference wins are a school record for FGCU.
The Lady Bisons fell 6-1 to Florida Gulf Coast April 6. Aid likes the chances for the Lady Bisons even though FGCU has a 7-0 overall series record against the Lady Bisons.
The Lady Bisons have lost their last six matches. FGCU has won its last five.
"We played them at home and swept them in doubles," Aid said. "We came out in singles with very little energy for whatever reason.
"It should be a competitive match. It should be a match that is winnable for us if we approach it a certain way."
The Lady Bisons are led by Laura Kent, a unanimous selection to the A-Sun All-Freshman Team with an 11-7 record, 3-3 in the conference. Also in double figures in wins for the Lady Bisons are Jenny Borck at 11-9 and Lorena Djuknic at 10-9.
Djuknic and Sierra Troxel are both 3-4 in conference singles matches. Borck is 3-5.
"We have been working on changing our mentality and letting the girls know that we are going in a different direction and that we plan on being competitive," Aid said. "We can't approach a match and play average.
"It is a young group. Their engagement is huge. They have to be mentally focused. They all have to have good matches if we are going to move on. Everyone has to do her job."
The Lady Bisons do not have a senior on the six-man roster. Aid doesn't think that is a disadvantage.
"It has been easier to change the culture with such a young team," Aid said. "We told the girls the other day that they are no longer freshmen, sophomore or juniors.
"They have to approach every ball with the right mentality. They have to show their maturity."

Computer programmers write and test code that allows computer applications to function properly. They turn the psuedocode program designs created by business managers and engineers into executable code. Software developers often start out with a bachelor's degree in computer science or software engineering, followed an intensive on-the-job learning curve. Computer science (CS) degree programs cover data structures, artificial intelligence (AI), computer graphics, object-oriented programming, and algorithm design. Moreover, most software developers specialize in multiple programming languages, such as php, ASP, C++, Python, JAVA, and SWIFT.
The median annual wage for computer programmers was $90,530 in May 2017, and employment prospects for software developers is projected to grow 17 percent each decade, much faster than average. Software developers also need skills related to the industry in which they work. Developers working in a bank, for example, should have knowledge of finance so that they can understand a bank's computing needs. In fact, many CS students gain experience in software development by completing an internship at a software company while still in college. Beyond major requirements within the software development department, you may consider Trine University earth science as a complementary elective.

As a result of a meeting between FEMA Region VII staff, U.S. Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, and officials from Camden County that took place in February, FEMA staff has been reaching out to local officials and are currently reassessing the Flood Insurance Study and current Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) at the Lake of the Ozarks.
As a result of a meeting between FEMA Region VII staff, U.S. Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, and officials from Camden County that took place in February, FEMA staff has been reaching out to local officials and are currently reassessing the Flood Insurance Study and current Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) at the Lake of the Ozarks.
Camden County has continued to see a heavy load of amendments to its flood plain maps more than three years after the adoption of new FIRMs.
From Aug. 1, 2013 to Aug. 1, 2014, Camden County had 180 Letters of Map Amendments (LOMAs) officially removing structures from the flood hazard area designated by engineers with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), according to Michael Cappannari, External Affairs Director for FEMA Region VII. In comparison, Miller County had 40 during that time period and Morgan County had six.
Since the new FIRMs were adopted in June 2011, Camden County has had a total of 1,250 LOMAs, according to FEMA's Map Service Center, while Morgan County has had a total of 302 and Miller 52. Those numbers do not include revalidations.
Cappannari characterized Camden County's number as "very active but not 'unusually' high" and noted that there are many factors that can contribute to a high volume of LOMAs.
Buildings with mortgages from federally regulated or insured lenders in areas designated as high risk — an annual flood hazard risk of 1 percent — are required to have flood insurance. For structures in moderate to low risk areas, insurance is recommended but not required.
In the February meeting, industry professionals stated concern with the new FIRMs for the Lake of the Ozarks region and their impact on the economy. The new maps placed more land within the flood hazard areas requiring insurance.
While many properties may be in the flood hazard zone, the structures themselves don't necessarily lie in the flood zone. A map amendment to avoid flood insurance is possible by mitigation efforts to elevate the structure above the hazard area and/or by proving the structure is above the flood hazard boundary through a survey.
A flood zone overlay can be viewed on the Camden County GIS digital map to give owners an idea of where their waterfront structure lies in relation to the flood hazard area, but the FIRMs lack the level of elevation detail for situations that are close. A flood certificate survey showing where the building is located vertically is required for a LOMA.
A comparison of the FIRMs on Camden County GIS with the LOMAs issued by FEMA shows that there are structures which appear to be in the flood hazard zone which have been issued LOMAs.
According to real estate professionals at the meeting in February, last minute flags from lenders on properties being located within the flood hazard zone can make a huge difference in costs and time, hindering sales of houses as the process for a LOMA gets underway or the potential new owner has to consider the cost of flood insurance.
The Lake contingent argued that the maps were not accurate or precise enough, throwing too many property owners into the LOMA process.
The studies used to develop FIRMs utilize a complex engineering formula using hydrologic and hydraulic analysis — the probabilities for the amount of flood flow based on rainfall and runoff data and river flow combined with the topography.
More detailed LIDAR maps were not used to create the FIRMs for the Lake area, according to Cappannari, but FEMA staff utilized the best topographic data that was available to them at the time. LIDAR is a laser light technology that measures distance and is utilized to produce high resolution maps.
"The mapping program that FEMA employs is funded by Congress, and while LIDAR might be more accurate when it comes to granular level data, it is also more expensive. In order to be as accurate as possible, we utilize all the tools at our disposal while operating under the current funding parameters," Cappannari said.
Utilizing LIDAR technology would have a greater impact on mapping gently sloping areas than on steep hillsides. So while it might effect some areas on the lake-area FIRMs, the extent of changes with LIDAR is uncertain, he said.
At the meeting in February, there was some discussion about local participation in helping to fund LIDAR mapping to improve the accuracy of the FIRMs.
Lake-area officials also pushed for more use of actuarial data in FEMA's formula for determining flood risk levels to lower the high risk area and get more structures out of the flood plain. With the controls of Bagnell and Truman dams and historic lake levels, they argued that many properties now in the flood hazard area will never flood.
Along the main channel of the Lake of the Ozarks, the boundary for high risk flooding is generally set at an elevation of 664 feet, but the contour level rises where narrower tributaries enter the lake and are not controlled by a dam.
The elevation of the top of Bagnell Dam is 670 feet. According to Ameren Missouri, the highest level recorded for the main part of the lake is 665, and since Truman Dam was completed in 1979, the highest level has been 664.
Lakefront property on the Niangua Arm particularly saw a significant increase in land lying within the flood plain with the new maps. The further back up the arm of the lake toward the Niangua River tributary, the flood elevation rises to 668 and gets to up 672 in places.
There was concern that the higher flood plain determination in this less developed part of the Lake could strangle future interest in development there.
It is also possible that the number of LOMAs in Camden County was impacted by the resurgence of the real estate market at the Lake following the national recession in the 2009-10 time frame as foreclosures increased and more houses went up for sale.

Game Stats (HTML)
ANNAPOLIS, Md. - For Chesapeake Bayhawks midfielder
Kyle Dixon, one MLL record just wasn't enough.
After becoming Major League Lacrosse's all-time leader with his 34th career two-point goal, the former University of Virginia standout added two more two-point goals to match another MLL record as the Chesapeake Bayhawks (2-0) overcame a 5-4 first quarter deficit to earn their second straight win, a 23-11 victory over the Ohio Machine (0-1) in front of 10,162 fans at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium on Saturday.
Dixon, who earned Bud Light MLL Player of the Game honors, became the eighth player in MLL history to score three two-point goals in a game. He is the first player to accomplish the feat since
Stephen Berger scored three two-point goals last year with the Long Island Lizards.
The Bayhawks jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead in the first four minutes on goals from midfielders
Ben Hunt and
Steven Brooks. After the teams traded goals to give Chesapeake a 3-1 advantage, the Machine answered with three straight goals to take a 4-3 edge with 5:53 left in the first quarter. Midfielder
Jim Connolly led the charge ith a goal and an assist.
After the teams traded goals again in the closing minutes of the first quarter, the Bayhawks used a four-point spurt, including two goals from Hunt, to take an 8-5 lead with 12:48 left in the first half.
Brooks and midfielder
Matt Casey traded goals before Dixon scored a two-point goal with 9:31 left in the second quarter for an 11-6 cushion. The two-point marker allowed Dixon to break the MLL career two-point goals record, which had been held by former Barrage midfielder
Roy Colsey.
A pair of goals, including a two-point marker from
Brett Garber, narrowed the Machine's deficit to 11-9 at the intermission.
Led by a goal and an assist from Dixon, the Bayhawks opened the second half with four straight goals to extend their advantage to 15-9 with 5:15 left in the third quarter.
After attackman
Chazz Woodson scored an unassisted goal with 3:35 left in the third quarter, the Bayhawks answered with six straight points, including a pair of two-point goals by Dixon, for a commanding 21-10 lead with 5:28 left in regulation.
Connolly tallied his third goal of the game with 4:09 remaining, but the Bayhawks added two more goals in the final two minutes to secure the victory.
While Dixon led the Bayhawks with his career-high 10-point performance, Hunt recorded his second consecutive "hat trick" with four goals, including a two-point marker. Brooks also scored four goals as the Bayhawks outshot Ohio by a 46-36 margin.
Connolly scored three goals to lead the Machine in a losing effort while Garber, Woodson and attackman
Jordan Levine each contributed two goals.
The Bayhawks will host Rochester next Saturday night at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium while the Machine will visit Charlotte next Saturday in a match-up of the MLL's two newest teams.
Notes: Dixon became the 16th player in MLL history to record 10 points in a single game ... In addition, he was just two points shy of the Bayhawks' franchise record that was set by attackman
Mark Millon in 2003 when he scored eight goals with four assists in a win over Rochester ... Of the Bayhawks' 19 goals scored on Saturday, 14 of them came from the midfield ... The Bayhawks were one two-point goal shy of matching the MLL single-game record.
