You will generally find a bike below $500 at a department shop or utilized. I individually have no problem with utilized it is just hard for a newbie to know what they are purchasing when they buy utilized but you can frequently get a much better bicycle for a lot much less if you purchase utilized. On the other hand division shop bikes are not great and I don't individually recommend them. They have cheap hefty frames that gained't give you a extremely comfy trip. They also have the most affordable level of high quality components (the gears and equipment changers and brakes).The advertisers for Cyclone bicycle motor kits tout their product as the very best motor kits to increase the variety and power of your bicycle. The Cyclone motor is compact but effective, and you get some of the best cruising and climbing power available in a motorized bicycle. Cyclone bicycle motor kits are high quality goods at fair, cheap costs. You don't have to worry about inexpensive quality, however. Cyclone kits are some of the very best on the marketplace.The ride will start at the corner of Sly Park Road and Pony Specific Path in Pollock Pines. It is appropriate for street, hybrid, or mountain bikes, and will be entirely on paved surfaces, besides for 1 25 meter stretch on Bullion Bend Road. That extend is recently laid road base, and is ridable by any kind of bicycle. This writer has ridden mountain and Road Bikes more than the whole ride.Whether you are looking for more pace, capability to have much more excess weight, or an effective way to go previous street traffic, Emmo Electric bikes in Toronto will help you attain your objective. These bikes have turn out to be a pattern today because they are inexpensive, fast and environmentally pleasant. When selecting your electric bicycle, there are a couple of things you should place in to thought.Life is all about alter. So do not think you cannot change the fact that you have allowed occasions in your lifestyle from stopping you to ride your bike. Something can be altered and established straight if you have the religion and determination. Discovering the bike owner in you is simple. The initial tip is to take your bicycle for a complete overhaul and to be reacquainted with riding all over once more. Make a trip to a local bicycle store and purchase a new helmet and perhaps a jersey to signify your completely new start at coming back. Be like a kid once more and ride in your street garments as you did long ago. Your bike will assist you to discover the sensation of free that you used to know in your youth.Mountain bikes have turn out to be the most popular options over the last 10 years or so. This kind of bike will have broader tires to handle the tough terrain. The body is on the heavier and thicker aspect with knobby treads to shield the bike from slipping aside. Since these bikes are heavier and aren't developed as aero-dynamically as Road Bikes, they're not as quick. The seats on mountain bikes are typically much more comfortable as they're produced to sit more upright. If you have a bad back, this is a better choice than a road bike.The first problem was a mock up of the puzzle problem "spot on". Evan and Brad get to the puzzle first, and also finish it first. Mark finishes next, with Rachel right powering him. Brittini was subsequent leaving Aneesa in final location. The 2nd problem was climbing to the leading to unlock a bike that is chained to it. For some reason, Evan thinks he has to have the mountain bikes for women Who are 5 ft to the top which puts him behind. Brad got a head start because of Evan's stupid error. Rachel is the first of the girls to complete the 2nd problem, but riding the bike to the subsequent problem is tough for her.First and foremost, how are you going to use your electrical bike? If you intend to use it for commuting, then you want a bicycle that is comfortable to ride, enables you a good calm posture and has fenders and chain guards to protect you from splashes and mud. You do not need a great deal of gearing. 5-ten speeds max. You simply will not use much more than that. If you just want a fast trip or to go mountain biking, then choose a bicycle much more suitable for these pursuits. Mountain biking will need much more gearing than a street bicycle, which can also do nicely with only five-ten speeds.When using an electrical bicycle, you will not have to place in much work. So you will not be sweaty when you attain your location. This benefit can be more obvious when summer comes or when you need to travel a long way.I am a bodily energetic person and using a bike to and from work isn't a problem for me. However, with the pedal help that this bike provides I can get up these hills just a little bit faster. The bicycle handles about 240lbs and so I am below that variety. The 450 watt battery is removable so you can charge it indoors at home or at the workplace. What I truly favored about was all the customizing you can do to it. You can include much better shocks, seats, lights mirrors and tires. I question I would consider this bike on the trails simply because that isn't something I do. Honestly, this bike appears sturdy but I don't think it can deal with the rigors of a bike path even though the bicycle is advertised as such. Nevertheless, for using around my suburban region and getting to and from function I believe it will do properly.

For many New Yorkers, summer means escaping the heat of the city and
Adventuring outdoors along the Hudson Valley
Relaxing by the pool in the Hamptons
Cooling off in Fire Island
Yet, New Yorkers beware! These locations harbor a pesky insect: the tick.
As if it weren't bad enough that these mini-vampires love the taste of your blood, these critters can transmit bacterial infections, too.
Typically the Ixodes tick must be attached to the skin for at least 36 hours in order to transmit Borrelia, the bacteria causing Lyme disease. This means that early detection and prompt removal of the tick will significantly reduce your chance of contracting Lyme disease. Remember to use tweezers--not your fingers or a flame--to remove the tick!
3 Stages of Disease
Lyme disease is known as the "Great imitator" because it can mimic many other diseases.
The disease is characterized by three distinct stages: early localized, early disseminated and late. Learn about the symptoms characterizing each stage of the disease.
Early Localized
Erythema migrans: the classic bullseye rash associated with Lyme. About 80% of those infected with Lyme disease will develop a target-like rash at site of tick bite, usually within one month of the bite. Typically the rash isn't painful.
Non-specific infectious symptoms: feeling tired, muscle aches, joint pains, headache, neck stiffness and decrease in appetite.
Early Disseminated
Joints: joint pains that migrate from joint to joint
Nerves: neuropathy, Bell's palsy, meningitis
Skin: multiple erythema migrans on the body
Lymph nodes: inflammation and tenderness of lymph nodes
Other organ involvement: heart, eyes, liver, kidney
May develop months to years after initial infection, even without previous manifestations of early localized or early disseminated phases.
Further involvement of the joints (arthritis of knee most common), nervous system and skin.
Diagnosis of Lyme disease can be established by clinical history and/or laboratory testing.
Presence of erythema migrans (the classic bullseye rash) plus history of a tick bite or residing in an area with endemic Lyme disease warrants treatment. No need for confirmatory testing.
For those without the classic rash, but with suspicion for Lyme disease (e.g. tick bite, living in endemic area), blood testing can determine if you've been infected with the Borrelia bacterium.
Blood Testing
Step 1: ELISA testing for antibodies against the Borrelia bacterium. Antibodies appear in the blood 2-6 weeks following appearance of the erythema migrans rash.
Step 2: Western Blot testing. As some antibody tests can represent a false positive, Western Blot is used to confirm the diagnosis of Lyme disease.
Limitations of Blood Testing
- As antibodies take 2-6 weeks to surface in the blood, a negative result less than six weeks after the tick bite may represent a false negative.
- Antibodies typically persist years after infection, even after Lyme has been successfully treated. This makes diagnosing reinfection with Lyme much more difficult--a tricky task for those living in areas endemic to Lyme disease. The biggest clue to reinfection is the appearance of erythema migrans at a new site on the body.
Doxycycline is the antibiotic of choice for Lyme disease.
How many milligrams, how often and for how many days? The presence of neurologic or cardiac symptoms requires more aggressive treatment.
- Absence of neurologic symptoms: 100mg Doxycycline two times per day for 10-21 days
- Presence of neurologic symptoms: 100-200mg Doxycycline two times per day for 10-28 days
- Presence of cardiac symptoms: hospitalization for administration of IV Ceftriaxone.
Unable to take Doxycycline?
If you have an allergy to doxycycline, are a pregnant or lactating woman, or are under the age of 8, consider treatment with an alternative agent: amoxicillin or cefuroxime.

Timebuckets in SQLComment on this article
If you have an application that collects events of some kind, you're likely to want to see a timebased graph of those events sooner or later. In my application, I'm receiving messages from clients over HTTP through several servers ("front-ends"). To see how well the front-ends handle the load, I want to be able to present a graph over how many messages are processed per front-end per time interval. That time interval can be seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or years or almost any intermediate period. The user should be able to select the resolution and the span and get that graph on to the screen in a reasonable amount of time. If that time was short enough, and the load on the server low enough, I could even present a real-time scrolling graph. Another requirement is that collecting the data should not cause much extra load as the messages are coming in through the front-ends.
The database needs to retrieve the event times as "time-buckets". A "time-bucket" is a time interval and the count of events within that interval. The size (time length) of a bucket is set by the user in the query and the query returns a rowset with the intervals and counts. It should all be lightning quick, of course, and not worry the CPU much. I tried a number of methods that didn't work, but I'll summarize them anyway so you know what not to try.
Make buckets during select
Just construct the data with a "GROUP BY" statement and some function similar to the fTimeKey() function (outlined in the next section). This will cause a temporary table to be created by the SQL processor and a very high load on the CPU. If we want to pick up performance data on a continuous basis, such as every 10 seconds, this will be totally unworkable. Simply forget I even mentioned it.
Bucketing while getting messages
One possibility is to provide the table that keeps the messages with an INSERT trigger that updates a counter for the smallest possible bucket interval, or for several intervals. This trigger will need to call a stored procedure similar to the following:
IF EXISTS(SELECT * FROM TimeBuckets
The dbo.fTimeKey() user function (you can only create user functions in MSSQL 2000 and later) returns a string that depends on the size of the timebuckets you want. For instance, if you want time buckets holding a full second of data, the returned key could be: "20040220 113108". If you want buckets the size of minutes, the string for the same datetime value would be: "20040220 113100", i.e. all times during that minute would be rounded off to the same key value.
There are a number of problems with this approach. The first problem is the abominable performance. If you've got anything like a realistic load on those front-ends, this this is unworkable. Just try it and you'll see. The second problem is that you have to decide on the timebucket size beforehand. So if you want to retrieve data in larger timebuckets, you have to do collate and sum the data in the query. That, in turn, will be horrible. Or, finally, you could extend the stored procedure to post to different sized buckets during the initial write. And that is even worse (I tried).
Other variations on the above theme, such as inserting all the needed buckets with counts = 0 first, then entering the count values using a (hairy) correlated subquery don't improve things noticeably. I don't doubt for a second that this approach can be improved considerably, but I don't think it ever will be good enough to be practical.
Bucketing after the fact
You can apply the same principle as above, but disconnect it from the initial saving of data from the front-ends. That would liberate the front-ends to run at their full capacity and would allow you to sort the event datetimes into buckets when the server has spare capacity. This method would imply that you need to maintain datetime "milestones", that is, values showing how far into the event tables you've processed the data. You also would need a mechanism to run processing in the background. I'm using an autostarted procedure in the master database for these things, that contains a WAITFOR statement and that calls a stored procedure in my database once a second. I could have that procedure check for new events to put into buckets.
Problems (and this one has more than enough): there's no way I know of to have this stored procedure recognize that the server is a bit too busy to bother with bucketizing right now. Or to have a stored procedure run with a lower priority. If anyone knows, please tell me about it. So this procedure may still very well take processor capacity when we really can't afford it. Maintaining the milestones isn't trivial either. Selecting from the event tables according to the milestones may be very inefficient (we need the last second of data from a table containing maybe years of data...), so we may need to have separate small tables for unprocessed data. And finally, if we select data for a graph, we won't get the most recent data every time.
It's really simple, actually
Since nothing worked, I started over. As simple as possible, meaning playing with indexes. I created a table containing nothing but the events themselves:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TimedEvent] (
This table has an "Event" column where you can stuff things like "Received", "Encrypted", "Sent" or whatever classes of events you have that you want to keep tabs on. The "Host" column contains the particular front-end server I want to have data on. "DateTime" contains the exact datetime of the event. The really important thing happens in the [MM] ... [DW] columns. These are all defined as computed columns, so they're automatically filled in by the system. As you can see, they contain the different parts of the datetime, including a day of the week column ([DW]).
Then I added a single clustered index, composed of the series of computed columns, except for the [DW] column. And finally, I changed the stored procedure that writes new data for the front-ends to also insert a row into the TimedEvent table for every event. Alternatively, if you have only one or a few event tables you want to track, you could add the computed columns directly to that table itself.
There's one disadvantage with the above computed columns: all computed columns are "integer" columns, since that is the return value type of the DATEPART() function. If you have millions of rows, the wasted space is becoming significant. I'm going to change the above to calculations done in an INSERT trigger and change the column types to the smallest possible (tinyint or byte, for example) in a later stage and then I'll see if it's worth it.
Performance: amazing
I ran queries against the TimedEvent table as it looks above, with 452990 rows of data in it. The machine running the SQL Server 2000 is a dual processor 800 MHz (it's a few years old) with 512 Mb RAM and a pretty good SCSI drive. I was running the queries using "SQL Query Analyzer" from a workstation connected to the server over a 100 MBit/s LAN. As timer, I used the timer in the status bar of the "SQL Query Analyzer".
In the first select, we retrieve the totals of the events per year. I have events spread over three years and four hosts. This select returns after less than one second:
The next select is very similar, but returns the total counts per
weekday. Note that the table isn't even indexed by weekday, but still it takes
less than a second (why, I don't know...):
The following select is much larger. It returns an ordered rowset containing all the counts per minute of all the servers separately. The returned rowset contained about 88000 rows and it took... 7 seconds to complete!
Finally, the following select returns all counts per minute of a 6 day period one month back in time. In my case, it returned 2541 rows and took less than one second to execute:
To get an idea of the processing needed to write to the TimedEvent table, I filled the table using the following query:
INSERT TimedEvent (Event, Host, DateTime)
This query took 30 seconds to insert 452990 rows of data. Which leads me to assume it won't be a problem...<g>.

The big white church on the corner is now offices for computer developers. But when I was small, it was the big white church on the corner. There I was raised on hymns and more.
As a young child, I found it difficult to sit still on the hard wooden pews while men talked and sometimes yelled. Some Sundays, I would entertain myself by trying to chew through the elastic that mercilessly held the little white and purple round hat on my head.
And I'll always remember the Sunday evening when my youngest sister began blowing up my mother's brown leather gloves. She would have hyperventilated had my mother not intervened. But my other sister and I had already seen how the brown glove rapidly expanded to the shape of a cow udder then, in an instant, it collapse into a mass of wrinkled brown as my sister sucked the air out of it. We laughed and giggled uncontrollably for the remainder of the service to the rhythm of my mother's uapproving looks.
Eventually I sang in the church choir. Not because I wanted to but because it gave my grandfather a great delight to see me in the choir.
When I learned to play the clarinet in high school, I became part of the church band. My clarinet was instrumental one hot summer Sunday evening. The big white church had an unfathomable attic. In that attic lived bats that ventured out occasionally during a service. It was my clarinet that waved over my head that evening, protecting us from the swooping bats who sported little white fangs that would (had it not been for my wildly waving clarinet) have been caught in our hair.
Don't worry. Not all was lost on me in church. You are only hearing of a few choice musical memories. Overall, I have very fond memories of singing gospel and praise songs. The exposure to so many hymns through my youth has made it a joy now to recall them.
Fast forward to a love for the ukulele and Native American flute. I enjoy learning the hymns on these instruments — new chords, new fingerings and sharing the venture with you.

maybe im going to look at second hand 15x's, but i wondered if there was any newer tech.
i dont want a tablet pc, i have a toshiba, broken screen - £400 replacement, hence me wondering if the money is better spent elsewhere - i have a dual-core pc which can handle anything better than a tabletpc ever could

July 11, 2007 - SurModics Inc. and Paragon Intellectual Properties LLC announced an agreement to develop a stent system for the treatment of coronary artery disease, which combines SurModics' FINALE Prohealing coating technology and Paragon's low-profile coronary stent system, designed to address late stent thrombosis.
SurModics' FINALE prohealing coating technology incorporates extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins designed to accelerate tissue healing of implantable medical devices through the body's own healing mechanisms.
In the deal, SurModics will make a $3.5 million equity investment in Paragon and its newly formed subsidiary, Apollo Therapeutics, LLC. SurModics has agreed to invest an additional $2.5 million upon successful completion of specified development milestones.
"We firmly believe that SurModics' FINALE prohealing coating technology will speed recovery of the normal vessel architecture and inner cell lining, with the potential to not only eliminate late thrombosis but also reduce restenosis," said Mark C. Bates, M.D., CEO of Paragon and Apollo and a leading interventional cardiologist and founder of the CAMC Vascular Center of Excellence in Charleston, West Virginia. "By combining this innovative technology with Paragon's low-profile stent system, we move closer to the panacea of a highly deliverable coronary stent with a biologic coating that has the efficacy of a drug eluting stent without the long-term concern of late stent thrombosis."

Are you one of those people who reads magazines in a doctor's office? When I say "reads" I'm using the term loosely. I generally just thumb through, mostly looking at the pictures, and that's only if I've forgotten to take a book to read.
Michael's radiation appointments go so quickly that I don't bother with a book. But the other day I had a few more minutes than usual so I picked up the nearest publication. It was one I don't think I'd ever looked at before, though the cover boasted it was 30 years old — Self magazine. In my few available moments I learned that plaid is apparently in. That's good news for my old flannel shirts. The beauty writers told me how to choose an eyeshadow shade based on my eye color, and how to pluck my eyebrows according to the shape of my face. (What shape is my face, anyhow?) I even read how to slim down by Saturday. Hmmm…I wonder if that promise would stick if I didn't read the article until Friday? (more…)

What's a 1031 exchange?
You may have heard this term if you've done research on real estate investment. It may sound complicated, but it's actually pretty straightforward.
A 1031 exchange is exchanging one business asset for another–in this case, swapping one property for one or more properties. Many people like this option because it provides advantages such as tax benefits. However, this can become a complicated process. We are experienced and knowledgeable about 1031 exchanges and can offer guidance to make the procedure as smooth as possible.
Contact us today for information and any questions you may have about investing in real estate and a 1031 exchange.
7 tips for investing in real estate
- Consider the amenities.
Not only current, but projected amenities are an important factor for potential tenants. What is the neighborhood like? What school district is in the property in? What type of employment opportunities are nearby? Thes are the factors your potential tenants will care about, so consider these types of questions when looking for a property to invest in
- Be aware of property taxes.
You can't escape it, but you can plan for it! Talk with homeowners in the neighborhood to find out what the property taxes are like in that area. Also, try visiting the town's assessment office. Do some research beforehand to avoid the majority of your investment going towards taxes.
- Research crime rates.
Thanks to the internet, most information is only a click away. Visit the police department's website or go into the public library to find recent statistics on crime rates including vandalism, burglaries and other serious and petty crimes. Always keep in mind the wants of your potential tenants. If you wouldn't feel safe in that community, why would they?
- Consider a 1031 exchange.
Cash isn't the only way to start a real estate investment. Other options like a 1031 exchange might be a more money conscious decision, offering you more flexibility with your finances. (Read more about a 1031 exchange at the top of this page).
- Be aware of high vacancy rates.
An unusually large number of vacancies could be a signal of a problem. There may be something drawing tenants away from the neighborhood, or it could just be a seasonal drop.
- Evaluate rent rates.
Do some research to figure out what current average rent rates are in your area. Factor this average rate into projected property tax increases to determine if this property will be a profitable and affordable investment.
- Factor in natural disaster vulnerability.
You should always thoroughly inspect the area surrounding your investment property. For example, if it's a hurricane or flood prone location, you will need more insurance coverage which will cost more. Also, consider how this will affect the number of vacancies the property may hold.
Investing in Houston Culture
If you are looking to invest in real estate, Houston is the perfect market. Not only is Houston real estate booming, but it's a great place to live, work, and play. Your tenants will love calling Houston home.

15/09/2009: Alien Being And UFO Light:
Photo Animation Captured on WIFI Security Camera; Hutton, Brentwood, Essex, UK
There are three sections to this video: Part 1: Original speed: 2. Slowed. 3 Repeated.
[Must view on full screen to appreciate this brief, but extremely rare capture.
Please read this witness statement carefully and then continue to scroll down page for images:]
"A work colleague of mine gave me these photos. He set up a WIFI camera in his backyard in a district of Brentwood called Hutton in the south east regions of England. The camera was set up for his daughter's school project, which was set to take a photo every 10 minutes for the entire duration of the year - which would be later compiled as a JPEG slideshow.
At 2:20 in the morning of the 15th of September, 2009, what appears to be a giant glowing ball of light shows up out of nowhere. At 2:10 no evidence of this light can be seen. The ball of light proceeds towards the camera at short increments, spanning from 2:20-3:40, at which point what appears to be a figure of some sorts (perhaps wearing an industrialized suit, or something other worldly) shows up in front of the camera and stands quite still for 2 other slides (3 in total, spanning 30 minutes) then disappears completely, along with the light.
I've attached photos from before the light shows up, to after it disappears.
The man who garnered these photos is incredibly honest, which is why I've gone to such lengths to show you guys this evidence.
Thank you for your time."

Can someone please pinch me! Big news out of the Brooklyn Pattern Company. This fall I'll be teaching along this superstar cast of teachers at Camp Workroom Social! To say I'm excited would be an understatement.
For four fun-filled days, sewing students from all over will come together in a gorgeous setting to learn, sew, share, laugh and mostly have barrels of fun.
Located at Frost Valley YMCA in the Catskill Mountains. You will be transported back to your youth summer camp with s'mores, zip-lining and bonfires. But this time your bangs are cool and you don't have to ask your brother to buy beer.
I'll be teaching an intensive weekend workshop about sewing for kids. A class just for people interested in sewing little clothes for little people. In this class I'll walk campers step-by-step through the construction of a Brooklyn Pattern Co. original children's dress and a unisex pant, perfect for both boys and girls. After campers learn how to sew clothes for kids, I'll teach some basic techniques for creating custom-made patterns for your children, so you won't be limited to commercially-printed patterns alone!
Skills required
- Advanced beginner students who know how to thread and operate a sewing machine and sew straight lines.
- This class is perfect for campers who love to sew but have little to no experience sewing clothing. This class is also good for campers who are interested in learning specific techniques that they can use to create children's wear.
What's included
- Dress pattern from Brooklyn Pattern Co. (6 months to 8 years old)
- Unisex children's pant pattern.
- Pattern paper.
What to expect
- Expert instruction in apparel sewing using techniques that will produce results that look store-bought, not homemade.
- Learn how to read and use commercially-printed sewing patterns.
- Basic instruction in how to draft children's sewing patterns using custom measurements.
Sound like fun?! You can read more about it here and sign up here. Want to see the cast of character, um, I mean teachers?
Not convinced yet? Check out these pictures, look out your window, and then look at the pictures again. We will take you to your happy place.
I seriously can't wait. I've never been this excited for camp. Ever!

As we realized we were in for another snow day this morning, we both lay silent for a while. Then I wondered why the coffee couldn't just make itself. My husband agreed; he couldn't see why the coffee didn't seek self-actualization. Yes, yes, that was it. The coffee needed to become actualized in its potentiality. It needed to become a steaming pot of French press coffee. After all, we'd driven through the treacherous weather to procure a pound of whole beans, and these beans were simply sitting in their paper bag, awaiting fulfillment.
I think we've stumbled on a great business venture, he added. Coffee that is able to self-actualize. There would have to be natural materials involved in the process — hemp fibers for filtration, clay pots and mugs that could be smashed back into the earth they'd been dug from. The natural materials would be great for advertisement. It was well and good for him to wax poetic about self-actualization while he was lying there, apparently satisfied with his state of being, sans coffee. But I wasn't having anything sans coffee.
How? I naturally asked. How is it possible for an inanimate object to self-actualize? What energy source is going to compel it to attain to its highest self? And that's not to mention the highest selves of the hemp and clay. Quantum entanglement, of course. No, no, quantum entanglement can't be the answer to everything. It isn't the mysterious out, the deus ex machina, for all impossible inventions and paranormal phenomena out there. Quantum entanglement might tangle the future with the present or the past, but the fact is that an intelligent energy source has to exist to bring the beans out of their energy dormancy. An active energy must act upon the latent one. So in the future, say, you or I would have to grind the beans and boil the water in order to make the coffee — unless God were involved, and then anything would be possible. God could be the intelligent energy source.
We should market that, my husband said. We should be the first to market the name-it-and-claim it cuppa. One would pray, and the coffee would appear. His only question was whether we should start with coffee beans as the source, or go purer and start with water. Water could be turned into coffee.
The God cup, I whispered. The God cup. That reminded me of a sermon I heard long ago when a Calvary Chapel pastor out at the Applegate preached about da Vinci's The Last Supper. There, in that painting, the pastor intoned with a certain erudite breathiness, lies a marvelous cup of realism. Let us partake, therefore, of this marvelous cup. But I don't like realism, I had thought at the time. Realism is like poison to my painted fantasy world. Why, God, why? Can't this cup pass from me? Wait a second. Didn't somebody else utter those same words…?
I'll make the coffee if you take care of the animals, I suggested. There was a silence followed by snide laughter. So I changed the subject. Since this is our second honeymoon, what would happen if two white butterflies rose from the falling snow and flitted across our path? Wouldn't that confirm everything? For the uninformed reader, a pair of white butterflies had followed us to the altar on our wedding day. White butterflies were a symbol of our relationship. Every time we made great life changes, our paths were crossed by white butterflies. Don't believe me? I don't have any witnesses, except for my family members and the 100 or so people at my wedding. But I swear on the ground beneath my feet — that won't melt away like the snow — that a pair of white butterflies flew in front of my car when I finally conceded to live in this God-forsaken town where my husband had found a new job. And here we are.
Whoa! my husband said, his hand held up in the stop position. Whoa! That was too much for his morning mind, prior to the hemp and clay self-actualized coffee. White butterflies do not appear in the middle of winter, rising from snow. Whoa, just whoa! You've gone too far now, Jill.
I always do. I guess I'll put an end to this right now. And I'll get up and make the dad-burned coffee. Except that, hopefully, it won't be.

There is a strong connection between the health and effectively being of people and their work environments. When folks really feel valued, respected and satisfied of their jobs and work in safe, healthy environments, they are more likely to be more productive and committed to their work. Everybody can benefit from a healthy office. This is not fully the same factor as wellness. Wellness refers to the state of being in optimum mental and bodily health. It is best to restrict alcohol intake, as it affects miserable on the central nervous system, and reduces the level of sugar in the blood. Also avoid espresso, black tea, gentle drinks and sweets. In some provinces you could wait, generally up to three months, earlier than you will get authorities health insurance coverage. Contact the ministry of health in your province or territory to understand how lengthy you'll need to wait. Ensure you have non-public health insurance coverage to cowl your health-care needs throughout this waiting period.
The factor is, in-order for these components to profit us all on the cellular degree in our blood stream, they must be acquired by means of the body within the type of dwelling uncooked foods, ingesting of fresh pure spring waters, and breathing of contemporary non-polluted air, somewhat than from harmful chemical substances or dead chemical enhanced meals. Stoicism is extremely valued and sufferers may not categorical ache. Patient studies of pain could also be understated. Provide pain treatment when acceptable, even when the patient doesn't seem like in pain.
As a result of transition from the sturdy, spicy food in winter to the sunshine spring meal, the body also reacts with fatigue. A deficiency of vitamin C affects the utilization of oxygen within the cells, so consistently yawning, lack of focus and sleepiness quickly disappear after coming into a better amount of useful nutritional vitamins. It's extremely really useful intake of foods rich in vitamin C, and those that suffer from spring fatigue may also help themselves by consuming different vitamins and minerals, as well as physical exercise.
Joanne's psychological health plan is helping her along with her points one at a time and the plan can be serving to her therapist to assist Joanne in overcoming these issues. The lifestyle in Finland is relaxed and easy going. Finns are straight ahead people – they are going to say what they mean. Unlike many western cultures, Finns don't experience any form of awkwardness if there's a silence throughout conversation. A Finn will not talk whereas another person is talking. He or she will only reply after the other person has had their say.
Aim to search out inspiration in the individuals and things around you. That means, you can strengthen your motivation and refocus your consideration on the health targets that really matter. Textual content 'til your drop. It is the perfect time to textual content back your family and pals! In line with a CTIA survey printed on January 6th 2012, half of their respondents mentioned that they spend between 1 to 4 hours utilizing their cell telephones to text, surf the online or call anyone daily.

Good Morning Readers,
It's a beautiful morning here in Independence. Birds are chirping outside the window. The grass is green and flowers are poking their colorful heads through the hard earth. Very few signs of winter past are visible and spring has officially sprung here in the mid-west. Spring – the season of hope. The hope that winter won't last forever; the hope that color and life will return to the cold ground; that new life is coming.
Photo © John Weese
That's the mood of the folks who gather here every other year from the four corners of the earth. Some come with hope – alive and bubbling over. They come from places where the church is alive and breathing and growing and living. Others come, weighed down, looking for hope; hope that just by being here that they will catch the Spirit and take it back to their small struggling congregation, and bring life anew in their places.
That's what the church leadership is hoping also. Not that the church will just grow – bigger. But that the church will come alive, and just like the spring flowers, poke it's colorful head out of the hard soil of doubt, apathy, selfishness, and greed, and offer color, texture, scent to the communities that have been hardened by a blast of winter. We don't just need bigger communities, we need vibrant communities, warmed by the breath of Heaven, nourished by the Living Water of Jesus Christ, and on fire with the flame of the Holy Spirit. Communities that know the source of Hope, that share the source of Hope, and live out the gospel in caring, accepting, affirming ways.
Photo © John Weese
And so it begins tonight, opening ceremonies, roll call of nations, flags unfurled, greetings from the Mayor, the Graceland University orchestra. Can you hear the call? Can you feel the hope? Is there a place today, for you to "Share Christ, Share Peace"?
This reporter is excited by the hope of what awaits; by the promise of the day, and the week, and the future. Enjoy your day. And I'll be right here tomorrow, to share more insights, more news, and more of the conference experience. Till then, may God bless you with an outpouring of Love.

To Benjamin Franklin from Joseph Priestley, 10 December 1781
From Joseph Priestley
ALS: American Philosophical Society
Birmingham 10 Decr 1781.
Dear Sir
Having a peculiarly good opportunity, by means of my brother in law,5 I could not forbear sending you a few lines; tho, as you cannot now give much attention to philosophical matters, I have nothing to communicate that will much interest you. It will give you pleasure, however, I know, to be informed that my health is now perfectly restored,6 and that my present situation is, in all respects, a very agreeable one; leaving me very much at liberty to attend to all my pursuits, and being peculiarly favourable to all my philosophical ones.7
Besides prosecuting the experiments relating to air,8 I have lately been employed in the examination of several mineral substances, especially with respect to the quality and quantity of the air they yield in fusion; and some of the results are pretty remarkable, but the particulars are too many for a letter. I find that a large rock, which is the basis of a great part of that country, near this town, is the very same with the basaltes of Scotland and Ireland, tho it has not the same configuration.9
At presents my experiments are a little suspended till I finish a theological work, which I have long had in hand, on the History of the Corruption of christianity.1 It is pretty large, but I hope to have it ready for the press early the next spring, and then I shall give my time chiefly to philosophical pursuits, having more objects of inquiry before me than ever. I find it, indeed, convenient to take a pupil or two into my house, but I hope it will be no great hindrance to me in my experiments, as they will be of an age to receive the most instruction by assisting me in them. My eldest son2 will also be of the party with us.
I cannot say but that, amidst all my pursuits, pleasurable as they are, I am much oppressed with the idea of the long continuance of this destructive war; tho my prospects are naturally more chearful than those of our friend D Price.3 It is to be lamented they who are the authors of all this mischief are not the greatest sufferers by it— Wishing a speedy and happy termination of these troubles, and, if possible, more happy interviews on this side the water, I remain, Dear Sir as ever yours sincerely
J Priestley.
Addressed: To / Dr Franklin / Paris
Endorsed: London
5. William Wilkinson, brother of Mary Priestley (XXIX, 260n). See his Jan. 8 letter to BF, below.
6. He had at last recovered from a "bilious disorder" which first afflicted him in the spring of 1780 and appears to have been gallstones: XXXII, 381, 433, 607; XXXIII, 325n; XXXIV, 198.
7. Since September, 1780, Priestley had lived in a comfortable home near Birmingham. There he enjoyed a £150 annuity from his previous employer, the financial support of numerous benefactors, the availability of skilled craftsmen, and the stimulating company of other scientists: XXXII, 606–7; XXXIII, 325n; XXXIV, 197; F. W. Gibbs, Joseph Priestley: Adventurer in Science and Champion of Truth (London and Edinburgh, 1965), pp. 135–9; Robert E. Schofield, A Scientific Autobiography of Joseph Priestley (1733–1804) (Cambridge, Mass., and London, 1966), p. 200.
8. In 1781 he published the second volume of Experiments and Observations relating to various Branches of Natural Philosophy; with a Continuation of the Observations on Air (3 vols., London and Birmingham, 1779–1786).
9. The rock, Rowley rag-stone, was common in the hills of southern Staffordshire. Priestley made similar observations in an Oct. 1, 1781, letter published by the Royal Society, introducing an article by mineralogist William Withering entitled "An Analysis of Two Mineral Substances, viz. the Rowley-rag-stone and the Toad-stone." Phil. Trans., LXXII (1782), 327–36.
1. Ultimately entitled An History of the Corruptions of Christianity (2 vols., Birmingham, 1782), it traced alterations of doctrine and discipline, and would become one of Priestley's best-known and most controversial theological works: Schofield, A Scientific Autobiography, p. 199; F.W. Gibbs, Joseph Priestley, pp. 170–3; DNB.
2. Joseph Jr. (1768–1833), despite this instruction, did not pursue a scientific career. He emigrated to Northumberland, Pa., where he farmed, established a brewery and nursery, and cared for his father in his final years: F. W. Gibbs, Joseph Priestley, p. 235; DNB under Joseph Sr.
3. Dr. Richard Price, a vocal critic of the ministry's prosecution of the war with America.

Some nice scenery on our way to Playa Amor just outside San Blas
For information about San Blas I have included the link below:
The information below is from from wikipedia:
It is a port and a popular tourist destination. It is located about 100 miles north of Puerto Vallarta, and 40 miles west of the state capital Tepic. It city had a population 8,707.[1]
San Blas is known as the port where the Spanish priest Junipero Serra, 'Father' of the California Missions, embarked on his journey north. The area is also noted for its fine surfing.
Much of the town was devastated by the Pacific Hurricane Kenna in October 2002, but most damaged structures have since been rebuilt, repaired, or removed. It was immortalized in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's final poem, The Bells of San Blas. Interestingly, Longfellow never visited San Blas.[2]
San Blas boasts several attractive beaches, which have been kept safe from large-scale development by the area's notorious population of jejenes or no-see-ums, that are mostly active at twilight. San Blas sits between two estuaries, the Pozo and El Rey, which are the main entries into a vast wetlands system. The many rivers that flow through the mangrove forests serve as the breeding grounds for fish. The wetlands also serve to buffer the land from storms and prevent erosion.
Recent incursions by shrimp farms have threatened the balance in this very fecund ecosystem. A local environmental movement has helped to mitigate the loss of substantial mangroves and diversion of waters. While claims that San Blas has suffered a loss of fish and wildlife due to development may be true, this area remains abundant in birds, bugs and crocodiles.
For downmarket vacationers (San Blas has only one luxury hotel) looking to get away from the more common tourist-filled Mexican beaches, San Blas is a popular choice.
Puerto de San Blas is the northernmost point of a stretch of Nayarit coastline called the "Riviera Nayarita" that extends south past the towns of Chacala, Los Ayala, Punto de Mita and Nuevo Vallarta to end at the Río Ameca, just near the border of Jalisco and just north of Puerto Vallarta.[3]
John and I were on our way to Playa Amor, but took a 3 Km detour out of our way to see San Blas. We stopped and bought some marlin for supper. It came with a plate of vegetables and tortillas, all for about 90 pesos.
If you want to spend some time here they have a few RV parks.
For those that want to check out the nature side of things you can take a boat tour through the mangroves and see the estuaries, mangroves and crocodiles. Bring bug spray as there tend to be a few more biting insects here.

For Immediate Release
2012 Most Admired Company Survey
TSMC remains Taiwan's most respected enterprise, for 16th consecutive year. Taiwan Mobile wrests telecom sector kudos from longstanding standard-bearer Chunghwa Telecom. Fubon Financial Holding Co. enters the Top Ten for the first time.
2012 Most Admired Company SurveyBy CommonWealth Magazine
From CommonWealth Magazine (vol. 508 )
Taipei, Taiwan, Oct. 16, 2012 – The 2012 CommonWealth Magazine Most Admired Company Survey is hot off the presses. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) took home the coveted title of Taiwan's Most Admired Company for the 16th year in a row. In fact, TSMC was top-ranked, not only overall, but in every single indicator in the survey. (Table 1)
Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co. (Foxconn) garnered 2nd place, earning recognition by its industry peers for its innovative approach to customer service. Coming in at number three this year was MediaTek Inc., which is looking for a resurgence by leveraging its prowess in virtual-hardware integration services.
Of the top ranked companies across 22 different sectors, 18 were strong corporations retaining their positions from previous years. However, in four different sectors, enterprises on the ascent toppled the previous leaders to lay claim to the "Most Admired" position in their respective industries. (Table 3)
In the computer sector, Hon Hai, which last year saw its top ranking fall to Quanta Computer, reasserted itself at the top this year. And in the telecom sector, Taiwan Mobile replaced long-running top dog Chunghwa Telecom to return as the industry's leader after a seven-year hiatus.
In biopharmaceuticals, top honors went to TTY Biopharm, edging out last year's winner St. Shine Optical Co.
In maritime shipping, Wan Hai Lines bested venerable old salts Yang Ming Marine Transport Corp. and Evergreen Marine Corp. to take top honors for the first time.
In this year's Survey, the Regent Taipei retained its top spot in the hospitality sector. W Hotel Taipei, meanwhile, debuted in the survey at No. 2, elbowing aside both the Grand Hyatt Taipei and the Far Eastern Plaza Hotel, which had tied for second place in 2011.
For the first time, Fubon Financial Holding Co. entered the ranks of Taiwan's Top Ten Most Admired Companies. The Fubon Group enjoys a dominant position across the board, with subsidiaries claiming "benchmark enterprise" positions in a variety of sectors, from banking, insurance and securities to telecommunications.
That these businesses have earned the honor of "Most Admired Company" reflects both excellence in their respective fields, and the imagination and dexterity needed to provide customers with innovative value in times of economic challenge.

About the Survey
For the 2012 Most Admired Company Survey, CommonWealth Magazine identified 22 sectors that are influential on the future direction of Taiwanese industry, based on the categories and criteria of the CommonWealth Magazine 2012 Survey of Taiwan's Top 1000 Enterprises.
The list of enterprises included in the survey was limited to companies ranked high in terms of revenue, and incorporated the recommendations of experts on each respective industry. Based on these principles, 217 enterprises were rated this year by both industry peers and experts, according to ten indicators including foresight, innovative capability and talent cultivation. Each company then received an overall ranking based on the average of its scores for each indicator.
Industry peers were selected from CommonWealth Magazine's database of Taiwan's Top 1000 Enterprises. Experts from the banking, securities, investment consulting, investment trust and accounting sectors, as well as research institutions and academia were asked to participate in the expert rating.
All the industry peers responding to the Most Admired Company Survey were also asked to cast a vote for the Most Admired Entrepreneur.
The survey was conducted between Aug. 30 and Sept. 25, 2011. With 3,072 questionnaires sent out and 1,675 valid responses, the survey had a response rate of 55 percent. Industry peers accounted for 933 valid responses, and experts for the remaining 742. For the Most Admired Entrepreneur portion, 856 valid responses were received.

By Canon S Sebastian Campbell
Every obstacle introduces a person to himself. How we respond to obstacles in our life is important.
The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5, 6, 7) has been described as the gospel within the gospel. The good news exudes from it simply because it deals with the obvious obstacles in human existence. The following is true to every people in every era: anger, sexual immorality, revenge, divorce, enemies of all kinds. Not only are obstacles identified, but the appropriate response to their ultimate defeat is clearly projected.
The greatest example of an obstacle in the Bible is the giant Goliath who confronted and intimidated the armies of Israel, including the brothers of a young shepherd boy named David. We know that the brothers chose not to do anything about the obstacle before them, but David did. The difference between David and his brothers was this: the brothers looked at the obstacle and figured it was too big to hit, but David looked at the obstacle and figured it was too big to miss. The way you look at any obstacle in your life makes all the difference.
Moses looked at Pharaoh as an impossible obstacle. Through faith in God he was to have a sense of equipment. Maybe sometimes we must question the might of our God if in our human nature we are afraid, intimidated and altogether paralysed by our given obstacle at any given time. At the apex of his doubts, God asked Moses, "What is in your hands?" He continues to challenge us to look at what he has provided; it's in our hands waiting to be employed. With the provision, in his hands, he was to penetrate many seemed impossibilities. With the rod he was to create a highway of deliverance through the Red Sea. It was used to split a rock and cause drinking water to rush forth. With it he opened the pantries of heaven and caused food to be supplied to a starving people.
The scenario of Moses is most appropriate to us Bahamians whose colonial mindset have us always craving for foreign imports. In faith we know that God supplies our every need with provision already provided. Our faith says, "Open your hands and use your supplies." The call in our lives is not a copy. God wants us to be original. Our ultimate liberation as a people is hampered by our refusal to struggle through colonial obstacles that have made us British so that we can become fully and truly Bahamians. Our liberation beckons us to change our way of thinking; to get rid of the colonial wigs and gowns; to get rid of the swearing allegiance to a foreign monarch; to rid ourselves of "Lordships" even in the church. God made us unique. To copy others is to cheat yourself out of the fullness of what God has called you to be and to do. Tap into the originality and creative genius of God in your life.
The irony of it all is while so many of our older generation imitate the British way of life the younger generation is busy imitating fringe cultural groups: Reggae music, American fast food, dress and the likes. Everyone is imitating. Where is our own identity? These cultural obstacles must be confronted. They are intimidating and most unnecessary.
Let each new obstacle force you to go to the next level in God. No obstacle is unconquearable and none are to leave you the way it found you. You will either be better or you will be worse as a result of that confrontation. In a general sense, obstacles have a limited life span. Many times there are things we worried about last year that we can't even remember today. One of the biggest lies of the devil is that things will not change, that they will not pass. Mediocre people tend to be tamed and subdued by obstacles, but great leaders always rise above them. We can be like the man, who, when asked what helped him overcome the obstacles of life responded: "The other obstacles." We should be like a kite that rises against the wind, causing it to mount higher and higher.
Every problem has a soft spot; there is an answer. Since many of the obstacles we face are money related the correct perspective is to know that if a problem can be solved with a cheque book "it's really not an obstacle; it's an expense." Someone has said that obstacles are what we see when we take our eyes of the goal. Keep your eyes on the goal and remember that you are not alone in your struggle, for "we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28). Really, in times of adversity you don't have an obstacle to deal with, you have a choice to make. In the midst of unbelievable circumstances, believe!

Helping you take control of your financial future is the essence of what we do.
Our job is to help you, our client, take control of your life by helping you take control of your finances.
Many people may have a pretty good idea of where they want to be, and what they want to be doing, in the future.
But to achieve those goals depends, more than anything, on taking the right financial decisions.
Poor choices can have vastly negative implications twenty years down the line.
That's why it's important to choose a financial adviser who is both qualified and has a proven track-record.
But that adviser also needs to be right for you because a successful advisory relationship needs to last for years, if not decades.
In the first, getting-to-know-you meeting, the crucial task will be to identify, and bring into clear focus, what your hopes, dreams and aspirations are. And to fully understand what your financial position is now, in terms of assets, liabilities, pensions and so on.
Working together, we'll then begin developing a financial and lifestyle plan to set you on your own personal path to financial independence.
The advice we offer is structured in five key time periods. Find out more.

You are here: Home Poems and Writings Three Poems - Gala Week
Three Poems for the Temple Project, by members of the public, collected during Gala week.
A ruined temple in the forest stands
Built by many, many hands.
Home to a drover, not the usual shack,
Posh at the front, plain at the back.
One man's ostentatious whim
And now Gatehouse people
Pay to immortalise him.
There once was a tumble-down folly
Which the locals thought rather jolly
So they had a whip round
And enough money was found
To repair it, and all said 'O, Golly!'
Late light touches the Temple.
Bats chitter. Cars on the bypass.
Roar. Human folly!

Pilot whale successfully refloated at Inch, Co Kerry29th Apr 2006 A pilot whale, live stranded on Inch strand Co Kerry, was successfully refloated this afternoon after a huge collective effort.
First observed on the beach at 8:30 by early walkers on the beach, the IWDG were contacted at 10:15. "I was listening to Derek Mooney on Mooney Goes Wild, talking about the blue tits nesting in a box in his garden, when I got a call from Mick O'Connell" said IWDG Co-ordinator Dr Simon Berrow. Mick is the IWDG local contact in Co Kerry but was in Dublin for the weekend. Mick was told that Kevin Flannery, of the Department of Marine and Director of Mara Beo, was on the beach with the whale and might need help. "I phoned Kevin and asked if he needed any assistance, he said he did and we were soon on the Shannon ferry crossing from West Clare to Kerry with the full IWDG live stranding kit, including the whale pontoon".
When we arrived we were greeted by a very well organised and busy beach. Local NPWS Conservation ranger Paschal Dower and Kevin Flannery had, together with a large number of willing helpers, dug a pool and put blankets and towels over the whale to keep it cool and were pouring water over it. The water was being ferried up from the distant sea in a bulk carrier on the back of a trailer. Despite the large number of people, estimated to be over 200, the atmosphere was calm but busy.
Locals, holidaymakers and tourists were all there. Anthony, an Australian who came down the beach to do a bit of birdwatching that morning, was told there was a huge "fish" on the beach. "If that's a fish then I'm a Kiwi" said Anthony and stayed the whole time to help and eventualy watch the whale swim out to sea.
While the IWDG pontoon was being transported to Inch strand, local vet Brendan O'Connor had visited the whale and could find no evidence of disease, infection or lesions and as it seemed in good nutritive state was thought to be heathly. Pilot whales usually occur offshore and are good candidates for refloating if stranded on a gently sloping sandy beach such as those found in Dingle bay. Thus this whale was deemed suitable to attempt to refloat.
We decided than rather than wait for 3 or 4 hours for the tide to reach the whale we would attempt to move it down the beach and into the sea. We rolled the tarpulin from the pontoon under the whale and secured it around the whales tailstock like a sling. We put another sling the under tarpulin under the whales head to keep it up. A rope was secured onto the front of the tarpulin and secured to the towbar of a landrover. Together with around 20 people we managed to slowly pull the tarpulin with the whale on it, down the beach.
"It worked remarkably well" said Simon Berrow "within two slow but controlled pulls we had the whale in the incoming tide". The pontoons were then attached and filled with compressed air and the whale slowly pulled into the water. The pontoons hold the whales weight and give it a chance to re-orientate itself. "Its breathing rate decreased showing it was becoming less stressed and circulation returned to its flippers". After around 20 minutes the whale was becoming more active and started gently raising and lowering its tail fluke. "We let some air out of the pontoons to enable the whale to support itself. After a further five minutes the whale began to slowly swin off the half deflated pontoon and out to sea. It appeared to be able to surface to breath without tilting to one side and hopefully will continue swimming out to sea rather than turn around and re-strand".

John Casselman – Phony SEAL Team Six OBL Raid Commando
The folks at Military Phony send us their work on John Brandon Casselman, who claims he was a Master Chief (E-9) U.S. Navy SEAL that participated in the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden.
Since Casselman promotes these SEAL stories on dating sites and Facebook, readers may not only get an insight into how the U.S. Navy SEALs work but also get to see a couple of pages out of Casselman's dating playbook. We don't want to overhype it, but we assure you he brings his "A" game… you be the judge.
If we can just keep the ladies on the sidelines and ask that you not run out on the playing field until the game is over and we finish presenting this case.
On his Zoosk dating profile, he says he was a SEAL and in the Navy for 11 years…
Casselman was not intimidated when Don Shipley's name was thrown out. No, he was more concerned about the lack of trust in a newly developing relationship – that was the issue. Not his Navy SEAL-ness.
Read about it below if you would like…
I wonder if Don Shipley knows he is a living legend or if he likes running a dating concierge service with screening SEAL claims? Long live The HAIR! Don did take a timeout from tending his gaggle of geese long enough to confirm little Johnny Casselman was never a Navy SEAL.
So, we consulted with all of the logical resources.
We could find no record of military service with DoD Manpower/SCRA or with the Department of the Navy. Having no military records puts any claim of him being a Master Chief, a SEAL or on the Osama Bin Laden raid in a state of doubt.
However, we did find that some other records do exist for John Casselman.
And here: https://indiana.arrests.org/Arrests/John_Casselman_34497680/
Now, we all would like to put our best foot forward, but honestly – which do you think is the more recent photo? Or stated another way, the before and after?
OK ladies and or fellas, here is your chance to date that Fake military hero with fantasy bullshit stories about his accomplishments and he comes complete with an arrest record. Don't miss your chance to be his next EX.

I got a quite lengthy email this morning from TMF both commending me and chiding me for my list of songwriters. He suggested a few that I left off of the list. What I've decided to do is focus some attention on the craft of songwriting by focusing on a few people from time to time. Some of you remember my series of posts on great album covers, this will be in a similar vein. If you have suggestions of songwriters to feature, send an email to me at mkinmotion[at]gmail[dot]com.
According to TMF, left off the list:
Johnny Cash (sorry man, it's best living songwriters, didn't you get the news in Valdez?)
Matthew Ryan
Daniel Lanois
Mark Olson
Lucinda Williams
Terry Scott Taylor
I think that phrase I used before "You can't get much better than _______" keeps resonating with a lot of my music. I'll put together the first installment of featured songwriter and see how it goes. I'm also intrigued by songwriting teams ala the Johns from TMBG, Olson/Louris in the 90s, Farrar/Tweedy, Sarah McLachlan/Pierre Marchand, etc. I'm gonna see if I can get some real responses from people who are actually on these lists to contribute. It's an overlooked art and the craft deserves some attention.

Rupture of the distal part of the biceps tendon
The biceps tendon inserts distally into the radial tuberosity in the proximal forearm. It is responsible for flexion in the elbow and also for some supination. The tendon is susceptible to degenerative changes and ruptures occur in athletes over 35 years old. The injury mechanism is usually a sudden extension of the elbow when the elbow is forcefully flexed.
Symptoms and diagnosis
– There is a history of a sudden snap in the elbow region during an eccentric, sudden load of the elbow.
– Moderate pain occurs over the anterior aspect of the elbow.
– Palpation reveals tenderness over the radial tuberosity and the anterior aspect of the elbow.
– Swelling occurs over the distal anterior aspect of the upper arm.
– It is difficult to contract the biceps against resistance at the elbow in the acute stage.
– There is weakness of the elbow in flexion.
The athlete should consult a doctor for advice.
The doctor may:
– prescribe careful mobilization with strengthening and stretching exercises (conservative therapy may result in a strength deficit of about 20–40%);
– operate on a complete tear in a young active person. The indication for surgery is the need of the athlete to regain full strength. The procedure consists of reattaching the distal tendon to the radial tuberosity.
– Early mobilization with strength and stretching exercises can begin as soon as pain and inflammation start to subside.
– Following surgery, healing usually takes 6 weeks, but range-of-motion exercises should start after 2–3
weeks. Strength training can be resumed around 6–8 weeks. Throwing activities are usually not allowed until after 4–5 months. The prognosis and results are good.
