Thread: Cade/Juniper Scent
I am a big fan of the L'Occitane Cade shaving cream and aftershave balm. Its suppose to be a Juniper type of scent. If any of you have smelled it and can recommend something along those lines in a cologe I would really appreciate it.

I havent seen the Cade cologne on the website anymore
That's odd... I saw it in a store a year, maybe two years ago. I can't believe they discontinued that one. Hmmmm...
I will check the store next time I go to the mall.
Lately I've been wearing:
Windsor, Bois de Santal, Original Santal, Elixir, Douro, Endymion, Reflection, Arcus, Marwah
Side note - from reading the notes listed here, you might look for a sample of Creed's Baie de Genievre - supposed to be juniper and cinnamon.
It doesn't smell too much like Cade, but Hermes Rocabar has a pretty strong juniper note.
I haven't seen a bottle of Cade in a L'Occitane store for a while. It's not on their website either. And yet L'Occitane discontinues another good fragrance?
L'Homme de Coeur is an iris scent with a wonderful juniper note, esp in the opening. Might be worth a try.
To my nose (if I remember correctly) Cade had a lot in common with Green Irish Tweed, and Coolwater.

I know that they still sell Cade aftershave but have not seen the cologne for a long time. It is an awesoome scent--the driest, crispest juniper wood out there. Baie de Genievre is juniper berries and has a different feel than the wood of a juniper. Great frag as well! I am not one for layering, but I once wore Cade aftershave and Cuiron cologne and I must say, it was a good combo.
L'Occitane Cade is a great a/s that last about 30 minutes on me. I bought a back-up recently. It's still in the L'Occitane stores I frequent.
"I exist for myself, and for those to whom my unquenchable thirst for freedom gives everything, but also for everyone, since insofar as I am able to love - I love everyone. Of noble hearts, I am the noblest - and the most generous of those that yearn to give love in return. - I am a human being, I love death and I love life."
Egon Schiele - Self-Potrait
My classics: Dior Homme EdT, YSL Rive Gauche PH, Helmut Lang Cuiron, L'Occitane Neroli (vintage), Davidoff Zino, L'Occitane Eau des Baux
It is in their stores and on their website but it doesn't come under fragrances, it comes under shaving products.
There is a Cade as but no longer an Edt. Although not exactly like Cade, Tiffany for Men Sport is a juniper laden scent. Ignore the 'sport' name its not a mindless aquatic.
I've never seen a Cade EDT at any L'Occitane store. I always thought it smelled slightly similar to Baie de Geneivre or Black Mark
Thats a link to the L'Occitane website page for Cade Aftershave Splash

The Limits and Potential of Local Organizing
Publication Year: 2010
Published by: Rutgers University Press
This book has gone through a long process of writing and revision. Accordingly, we have compiled a set of debts to friends and colleagues who have commented on earlier forms of it and its arguments. The arguments we are making were first aired at the annual conference of the Urban Affairs Association in Montreal in 2006. We learned a lot from...
This book grew out of our shared concerns about what has happened to community, community organizations, and the politics and policies that shape them. Although we all teach in universities, we have long personal engagements in community and social justice work, and are active in, or allies with, a number of community organizations whose work informs our understanding of contemporary ...
1. Community and Its Discontents
It takes more than a community to address a global economic crisis. Policies of unregulated capitalism have resulted in a global economic tsunami, for nation-states and for community activists and the organizations in which they work. This "state of emergency" is ...
2. History Matters: Canons, Anti-canons, and Critical Lessons from the Past
The history of community initiatives reveals a complex past, one which if viewed with a wide-angle lens instantly expands understanding of the varied goals, politics, and shapes community efforts take. The complex history and diverse forms result from a number of factors, chief among them the historical context that shapes ...
3. The Market, the State, and Community in the Contemporary Political Economy
Neoliberalism plays a constitutive part of community practice in the contemporary Anglo-American world. More specifically, there are two principal forces of neoliberalism that pertain to community-based efforts—the primacy of the market and the decentralization of the state. First, in contemporary community-based efforts ...
4. "It Takes a Village": Community as Contemporary Social Reform
While the contemporary turn to and romance of community is grounded in the neoliberal ideas and policies discussed in chapter 3, not all ideas about the importance of community, or new strategies and programs reflecting these ideas, are designed to perpetuate the unbridled free market or the decentralization of organizational ...
5. What's Left in the Community?
Up to this point, our book has examined the limits and virtues of community-based organizations. Our central argument has been that over the last thirty years the shrinking of political goals of these organizations has been accompanied by a narrowing of the frame of reference in community-based efforts to a focus on the community in ...
6. Radicalizing Community
We write the conclusion for this book in the midst of a crisis of global capitalism and of the neoconservative and neoliberal strategies that have dominated the world stage for the past thirty years.

Point-of-care decision support as a vehicle for guideline dissemination: Best Practice case study
Suche in Medline nach
|10. Juli 2012
Background: Guidelines and web-based clinical decision support (CDS) tools share the aim of promoting evidence-based practice at the point of care. Guidelines are used to inform content creation, and in turn may be disseminated and promoted through knowledge resources.
Objectives: To outline the use and display of guidelines within BMJ Group's CDS tool Best Practice (BP); to use Google Analytics data to explore BP's role for guideline dissemination.
Methods: Description of editorial processes and guideline display in BP; evaluation of Google Analytics data for overall BP usage, visits to guideline pages, and top 10 guideline pages.
Results: BP uses high-quality guidelines as an integral part of its content feed and contains thousands of live links within its guideline sections. Of the over 2.7 million visits to BP between January 2009 and December 2011, 11% and 5.6% were attributable to visits to its treatment and diagnostic guideline pages respectively. The observed steady rise in numbers, accelerated since the end of 2010, is strongly correlated to the increase in the number of overall visits. Top 10 guideline pages include common as well as rare but potentially serious conditions.
Discussion: BP has matured into an important tool for guideline dissemination, providing easy access to thousands of major guidelines and raising awareness of their currency and content.
Implications for guideline developers/users: Clinical decision support tools such as BP are an effective means of bringing guideline recommendations to the point of care.

Chronicle collage by Richard S. Dunham from AP photos
Will Sonia Sotomayor replace David Souter on the Supreme Court?
Latino rights groups — taking a cue from President Barack Obama's pledge to pick someone with "empathy and understanding" to replace Supreme Court Justice David Souter — today pushed the President to nominate a Hispanic to the post.
Selecting a Hispanic man or woman to serve on the Supreme Court would be a historic first. The Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund urged Obama to take that step.
"I can think of no better moment for him to nominate the Supreme Court's first Hispanic and someone who will uphold our Constitution's promise of equal justice and freedom for all," said Henry Solano, MALDEF president and general counsel.
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus sent a letter to Obama noting that Hispanics are "significantly underrepresented in the judiciary."
Although Hispanics make up 15 percent of the population, only 4 percent of federal judges are of Hispanic descent, "and not one has served on the nation's highest court," said Rep. Charlie Gonzalez, D-San Antonio, a former state district judge and head of a CHC task force on the judiciary and civil rights.
"Appointing our nation's first Hispanic justice would undoubtedly be welcomed by our community and bring greater diversity of thought, perspective and experience to the nation's legal system," the letter stated.
Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand and Charles Schumer, both New York Democrats, also have called on Obama to appoint a Hispanic to the high court.
They have suggested Judge Sonia Sotomayor of New York, who sits on the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals, and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar of Colorado, a former attorney general of that state, as candidates for the seat.
The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said on ABC's "This Week" that the makeup of the court does not reflect the country's diversity. And Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., who just last week switched parties, said he would prefer to see a Hispanic or African-American nominated.
Republicans, meanwhile, have seized on Obama's criteria for a new jurist and warned against selecting an "activist judge" who will try to legislate from the bench. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said it is "the law, and not his or her heart or political ideology, that should guide a judge's decision-making process."

Bleh, my turn again - 06/24/14 03:22 PM
I've been mildly sicky for the passed few weeks
(just mild malaise: feeling under the weather)
until yesterday that sent me scrambling to the
doctor asap before he went home for the day..
..I was told to just go to the ER.. but you know
how that goes... so I finished my last post, &
drove the 25 miles back to Bloomfield @ 70 mph.
He gave me a once-over and took some samples,
and scoped them right in his facility, and
sent me home with a call-in script for a really
powerful anti-biotic.
At first I didn't think I was going to make it
through the night, doubled over and gasping in
pain... but 2 hours later, my fever broke, the
pain became tolerable, and well..here I am.
Getting sicky again; ears ringing, hands tingling
but I can't take the next does for hours yet.

Starting a Price Book
How to Make a Price Book: Help, Please!
I've always had good intentions, but only now am I feeling quite serious about saving money! The question I have is about the "price book" mentioned in several articles. How are they set up? I started one on the computer that I thought was well organized. It seemed too long and complicated, and I didn't quite know what to do, so I stopped updating it. I know others that are just starting to be "frugal" could benefit from advice in this area as well. If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate it! Thanks!
Aimee W
How to Make a Price Book: For My Next Attempt
I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to organize my Price Book too! I started with a small, spiral bound notebook that doesn't take up much room in my purse (I found that if I didn't have it with me, I couldn't use it, so I carry it at all times). The problem was the pages were not moveable. I'm looking for a 3 ring binder type that's really little now, I'll customize sheets for it by cutting up scrap paper. I may have to resort to a large binder clip with individual sheets if I can't find one soon!
I found that putting a title at the top, like "paper towels" works best. I had trouble deciding if I wanted to unit price it by the sheet, or by square footage. Either takes work to figure it out. I ended up with square footage, as individual sheets vary so much. There must be a conspiracy afoot to confuse consumers, because each and every type of paper towel (just as an example) has different sizes, weights, square footage, sheets, number of plys, etc. A chore to figure unit prices out initially, and to watch to make sure packaging doesn't change over time (and reduce your savings).
I then store all of my sheets alphabetically. That's faster for me to locate than trying to figure out if paper towels, paper tissues, or toilet paper are under a paper category, or under a household category, or whatever.
I find I add sheets to my book all the time. It's true that any one store (warehouse club, salvage store) doesn't always have the best deals. I've found great loss leader deals on household paper goods at stores like KMart, Target, and Wal Mart. Also, some of the most expensive items on laundry soap at the same places?! It pays to spend a few minutes with your price book, a calculator and the stores sale flyers once a week...and keep your eyes open!

How to Make a Price Book: A Single Sheet
For those who want to be a smart/sharp shopper having a price book is a good way to know what you have actually paid for things in the past. Unless you have one of those photographic minds or are a student of the mega-memory course most of us will need to write things down. A price book can be as simple or complex as you like. Mine is very simple. I just keep a list of products that I buy frequently(in alphabetical order) with the best price that I've ever paid for each product. When I go through the sales flyers each week, even though the flyer may be very splashy and colorful and have big letter advertising some "great" sales, by having my price book to refer to I can know if this is indeed a great price or not. I've seen many things advertised in sales flyers that give the impression of being a great deal, with the price book I can know for certain whether it is or not. BTW my price book is not really a book but a single sheet of paper.
How to Make a Price Book: An Address Book
A price book should be something easily slipped inside your pocketbook, diaper bag, etc. I've found that a small address book works great. There are alphabetical tabs and, depending on which type you buy, plenty of room to jot notes down on items, stores, etc.
How to Make a Price Book: Recipe Box
I got out an old recipe box & picked up some index cards & alphabetical index cards. I have one card for each type of thing (milk, bread, etc.) Now when I return from the store & have put away the groceries, I sit down with my receipt & put the date, the store, & the price on the appropriate card.

How to Make a Price Book: A Powerful Tool
The start of a price book is time consuming and a overwhelming but WELL worth the hassle and time. One of Amy Daczyczn's Tightwad Gazette volumes has a good article about a price book. That helped a lot. . I believe she gives a few good illustrations of the layout of her price book. I started with my basic ingredients of favorite recipes (ex: ground beef, chicken, rice) and necessities like milk, toilet paper, coffee. It took me 2 months to complete a price book because I usually had to grocery shop with 3 kids. I went to 4 stores and a warehouse food club until I got all my basics down. I quit going to several grocery stores afterwhile because they were so expensive. Something I didn't know until I started my price book.
Your completed Price Book is a powerful tool. With my price book I found the cheapest diapers go on sale at the most expensive grocery store in town and warehouse shopping isn't as cheap as we're lead to believe. The best advice: STICK WITH IT!
How to Make a Price Book: Just a Few Items
I started out as you did, by collecting prices on everything I thought I might ever want to buy, and went to three different stores. But I found that the list was just too cumbersome, and I really bought about the same types of things every month. So I concentrated on a few products I buy over and over again (toilet paper, tomato sauce, ground turkey, chicken, laundry soap). I learned to read the unit prices most stores have on the shelves with their products, and to get a general feel for the base price I would pay. For instance, I will not pay more than .25 per roll for toilet paper (2 ply-280 sheets per roll), and if I find a sale where the price is .22 or less, I really stock up. As I go along, I expand to five more products that I buy often (butter, flour, sugar, rice, coffee). I also look at stores that are not part of a big chain and that might be located in a less affluent section of town. We also seem to have a lot of small produce stores that sell stock that may be a few days old and the price is much cheaper than the super markets, so if you can use it right away, it is a great deal.
Once you figure out your base prices, you don't really need the price book as much. Don't let it overwhelm you at first, you can break it down to smaller catagories and still save a lot of money in the meantime.

How to Make a Price Book: Special 'Index' Book
I struggled with how to make a price book too. This is what finally worked for me.
I took a pack of 3x5 cards and punched holes in them. I put those rings things (the ones that look like key chain circles) through the holes to keep the whole thing together. Thus, the book was small enough to carry easily, and I could add or delete pages if needed. At the top of each card, I wrote one item that I use on a regular basis, ie peanut butter. I then alphabetized the cards.
I watched the sale fliers that came in our paper and when peanut butter was on sale, I wrote on the peanut butter card, 1) the name of the store (use abbreviations) 2) the brand 3) the size and 4) the price. Then I computed price per ounce and put that on the card in red ink. Because that's ultimately the bottom line.
I was able to get most of the information from those fliers. If the price wasn't better than one I had listed already, I didn't bother writing it down. I did get a few prices from jotting them down while doing my regular shopping.
Now when I find an unbeatable price, I stock up without feeling guilty! This was easy to do, and it saves me a lot of money.
Melissa E
How to Make a Price Book: Computerized
My price book is in a spreadsheet on my computer. Items are grouped by grocery section (i.e., dairy, frozen, etc.). Other info I track are: brand name, name of item, size and the price. There's a price column for each of the stores I typically shop. (I started with four).
I update the spreadsheet with prices for items I buy often. After a month or two, the differences among the stores proved I was better off not shopping at two of the stores. For items I bought frequently that didn't fluctuate in price by more than a penny or two (i.e. milk), I watched for sale ads or bought as in store specials whenever I could.

Should I Get Back with my Ex?Visitor's Question from a 21-30 year old Female
My ex and I have been dating off and on for approximately four years during high school. Of course the issue came about where we were going to college. He decided to go 8 hours away. And I decided to go thirty minutes, but we agreed to try and make it work I mean we can always transfer.
Unfortunately, I never made it to that particular college because I found out I was pregnant. He was furious that I had decided to keep the baby, and began avoiding,ignoring, and just being plain mean towards me. He still decided to go with me to my first doctor's visit, and sonogram. After seeing the baby he became that excited expectant father.
The next week he left for college. My friend up there told me they saw him talking to some girl, but they weren't sure if it was any more than a conversation. He cursed them out for causing me to beleive it was more than a conversation.
A few months later I lost the baby. The next month, He told me we weren't compatible, and he wasn't happy. My nonprofessional friends told me it was probably distance. Whenever he came home, he would always call,and talk and hang out with me. During Christmas break, we had a blockbuster night. That led to something more. He called me the next day, and said it should not have happened because we are supposed to be "friends."
All of my friends are in school with him, and I had to change my phone plan to accomodate the long distance calls from my friends. I decided to move up there, but I wanted to visit first. Spring break, I did. I went to his school, and he came to see me, he sat and talked to me, and he conversated with me & my friend the entire time. After returning home, he bagan to call more often. At least once once or twice a week.
I have dated since him. At least two or three other relationships. They all turned out to be a disaster. I have the reoccurent dream at least every other night that he said he was sorry,and we started all over.
It's summer vacation, and everyone is home. My friend told me he had a new girl friend who had him in her words "whipped." He told me that he had to talk to her, and everytime I call him he's mad at her.
What should I do? Should I fight for him back? Should I change residences?
RomanceClass.com Advice
It sounds like he considers you a fun person to hang out with casually, when it's convenient, but not someone worth putting any serious effort into. That's really not a good thing for a relationship. Every relationship takes work, takes two people who are willing to go the extra mile to make sure things work out well.
I wouldn't go following him up to school. If your friends are there and you miss your friends, maybe go to be near them and to take courses you enjoy. If things work with him while you're there, that's fine. But I would not make him the main reason you do something. Think seriously about what you want to learn about in college, and which college gives you the best chance to do that. There will always be guys around to spend time with, and many of them will be far better for you than he sounds like he has been.
If he's actively fighting with his new girlfriend, the last thing you want to do is get involved in that. You should never, ever try to break another couple up. If you did, then any time anything went wrong after that he would blame you - he would remember the great parts about his other relationship and focus on the bad parts of what you are.

OK 2 more features to be added to the list=
It seems as though the path to the Function folder is hard coded into Neobook. It would be HIGHLY desireable to be able to change the path so the default function location could be stored elsewhere. Even if it had to be edited in the registry. I have even tried remapping it with a shortcut to another folder with no luck.
Reason: I, along with many other people never store any files on the same drive as the OS, only software installations. All special folders, including the Desktop, are remapped to another drive. This drive could be a separate partition on the same disk or a completely separate disk (both methods have their pros and cons). Lots of good reasons for it but a different subject.
The book Properties dialog window IS sizeable. Very useful! However, the Object Properties dialog windows are NOT sizeable. Very UNuseful!
Reason: When editing action scripts in the Book properties (i.e. Startup, Shutdown, Subs, etc) it is much easier to resize the window and still have quick access to the other buttons, action scripts etc., than to use the full screen editor and have to close it before accessing other buttons, action scripts etc.
Realy looking forward to version 6!
EDIT: Had to add another
How about a :CustomWindow_OnMove or :Container1_OnMove subroutine!

Hostal Sajama
Avenida Potosí 23, Uyuni, Bolivia
Check Uyuni Hotel Deals
Hostal Sajama Uyuni Reviews
178 reviews
WORST PLACE EVER May 18, 2010
We arrived in Uyuni from Potosi at around 1:30 am. And the first thing we wanted was a warm bed. We were greeted by a woman and she said she was going to take us to a good hostel. We went, but the man at who was supposed to be opening the door at all hours of the night choose to sleep instead of make some cash, so we got dragged to this dump.
It was about 5 degrees, if not colder when we arrived, and we got into the room and it was just as cold. There was no heat, but a massive amount of blankets. If it was not a double bed I'm pretty sure I would have frozen to death that night.
We awoke and found the window out of the front door was missing and we didn't see it because the curtain was covering it. We asked to switch rooms and the guy let us, but it wasn't much better. I mean in the day it was ok because we got the end room so a lot of light shone in, but by nightfall we were back to wearing every item of clothing we owned.
There was no hot shower either. It's really quite unfortunate you have to stay in Uyuni before you do your salt flat tour. I want to go back but thinking I'd have to stay there again just ruins it for me. I recommend you do as much research as possible into a good place to stay in this area.

This iReport is part of an assignment:
Dragon Con 2013
May the Magical Force be With You
- hhanks, CNN iReport producer
While deciding on the idea was easy, making it happen hasn't been. One difficult part was actually figuring out who would be which Princess and how that Disney Princess would look as a Jedi. The Star Wars Universe is vast and has so many different characters that picking a good look for each Disney Princess took a lot of research. It also took a lot of creativity. One friend imagined Cinderella as a Princess of Naboo and has created patterns and found embroidered fabric to make that happen. Another friend decided she didn't want to be a Jedi or a Princess and is instead making an evil Sith Twi'lek crossed with Maleficent. It has taken her a lot of effort to create a Twi'lek Lekku. Snow White is being transformed into a Jedi who has fallen to the dark side by another friend, based on the relative darkness of the ABC version of the character in Once Upon the Time, and Snow White and the Huntsman.
I am going to be Sleeping Beauty as a more traditional Jedi and melding her costume with Star Wars clothing I have seen playing Star Wars The Old Republic computer game. I am dressing my boyfriend as Jedi Prince Phillip. The biggest challenge I personally have faced has been learning to sew. I have been taking classes and was able to finish my boyfriend's Jedi costume, but I just started on mine and with Dragon*Con just a few days away I am scrambling to get done in time. I might have to get resourceful and find some pieces to finish the costume. Not finishing is just not an option when I have so many other people doing this costume because I asked them to.
This isn't my only costume for Dragon*Con and getting ready is crazy. I'm lucky that my fellow cosplayers are amazing and haven't needed much help, but we also haven't talked much about what we are doing. This means that Dragon*Con will be the first time we see each other's costumes. I have no idea what Belle is going to be.

From Dean Dan
The Nevada Bar Exam is one of the most difficult in the country, and over the years has ranked by various measures anywhere between the 5th and 7th most difficult in the nation. Boyd works hard, with our outstanding Academic Success Program and our excellent faculty, to make sure our students are prepared to do well on the exam and to enter the legal profession. The July 2013 bar exam results were announced on Tuesday and the school once again did very well. Bar exam results can be broken down in different ways, but the most straight-forward is to look at the percentage of those who take and pass the bar the first time. The passage rate for Boyd graduates taking the bar exam for the first time was 80 percent. This is compared to an overall first-time taker rate in the state of 76 percent. This year's overall state pass rate (which includes those taking the test for the first time and all others) was 66 percent, down from the overall pass rate in July 2012 of 69 percent. Boyd's overall pass rate was 74 percent, well above the state overall rate. These numbers are strong and reflect hard work by our students, faculty and staff. We will continue to strive for all Boyd grads to pass this difficult test and will work with every graduate to reach this goal.
I want to very much thank Associate Dean Frank Durand and the Academic Success Program team, Director Jennifer Carr and Assistant Director DeShun Harris. Congratulations to every new Boyd lawyer, I will see you when you are sworn into your new profession.
Dean & Richard J. Morgan Professor of Law
FACULTY SPOTLIGHT: Francine Lipman
Francine Lipman is a scholar and teacher with a background that brings credibility and sophistication to her work. Before she went to law school, Professor Lipman was a CPA and then a CFO. After law school, she was a tax lawyer in biglaw for seven years. Now she is a law professor with a passion for tax that is contagious. And she is a scholar whose work is widely recognized: one ranking, based upon the number of all-time article downloads on the Social Science Research Network, ranks her the sixteenth "most downloaded" tax professor in the country.
Professor Lipman's current research agenda is focused on a topic she calls access to tax justice. In a recent article, available here, she begins with some sobering statistics about poverty and income inequality. In the United States, one of the richest countries in the world, there are 16 million children and 30 million adults living in poverty. On a recent survey of social justice, America ranked 27th out of 31 countries.
Poverty among working poor families with children would be much worse, she explains, but for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). She applauds the success of the EITC, both as a benefit and as an effective economic stimulus; yet she also advocates for more robust and targeted anti-poverty measures. She describes a pathologic mismatch in having a social benefit program distributed through the federal income tax system. The IRS is designed to collect revenue, not distribute resources. This mismatch creates an "access to tax justice" issue because low-income families have to file tax returns that many wouldn't otherwise need to file. If instead of a tax credit this were a wage subsidy or payroll tax offset, then beneficiaries wouldn't have to wait a full calendar year to receive current-year incentives, they wouldn't bear the significant administrative costs that the status quo assigns them, and they would be less vulnerable to tax preparers and others who take advantage of individuals with liquidity issues. Her scholarship engages scholars, practitioners and policy-makers. It is scholarship with impact.
STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: Mackenzie Hanks
Casing oscillators. Clamshell excavation buckets. Steel reinforcement bars.
One would never expect such items to be discussed in a personal statement submitted with an application for law school admission. So when Mackenzie Hanks discussed such items in the personal statement accompanying her application to Boyd, our admissions committee thought, "Whoa! This is something different."
Mackenzie, you see, is a geotechnical engineer. Geotechnical engineering is a discipline within civil engineering that works in soils, specifically foundations and retaining walls. She earned a B.S. in civil engineering from Brigham Young University in 2005. While at BYU, she earned induction into Tau Beta Pi, Golden Key, and Phi Kappa Phi Honors Societies; was an officer in the American Society of Civil Engineers; and served as a teaching assistant for several sections of the Soil Mechanics and Surveying course.
Prior to her Boyd matriculation, Mackenzie worked for a civil engineering firm in Washington state. She found herself involved in some 40 projects annually, drafting recommendations for reports, performing design calculations, and carrying out initial site reconnaissance, soil exploration, and construction observation.
As one might guess, Mackenzie hopes to couple her engineering background and J.D. degree to pursue a career in intellectual property law.
"As a geotechnical engineer, I can bring a fresh perspective to the field of patent law," says Mackenzie. "I am excited to have the opportunity to learn about new innovations within the geotechnical construction industry and then to secure patents to protect the designers and their work."
Currently serving as Vice President of Boyd's Intellectual Property Law Society, Mackenzie is well on her way to achieving her unique career goals. And on top of that, she holds the distinction of being the sole individual to have parlayed talk of casing oscillators into Boyd admission.
ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT: Jeremy Aguero '04
Jeremy Aguero '04 is a principal analyst with Applied Analysis, a leading economic, fiscal and policy research firm based in Las Vegas. A fourth-generation Las Vegas resident, Aguero undertook a special course of undergraduate study at UNLV with the late Dr. Shannon Bybee. He graduated with honors from the William S. Boyd School of Law in 2004.
Aguero says that he never intended to study law. As he puts it, "Shannon made me promise him that I would go to law school. Like in most everything else, he was right; it has made all the difference in my professional and personal life." Aguero was named the Boyd School of Law's Alumnus of the Year in 2011, an honor he dedicated in memory of Dr. Bybee.
During the past 16 years, Aguero has been involved in a wide range of projects, many with far-reaching implications for the state. In 1998, he worked with UNLV's International Gaming Institute to prepare a report on the economic, fiscal and social impacts of Nevada's gaming and tourism industry that was ultimately submitted to the Federal Gaming Impact Study Commission. In 2002, he chaired Governor Kenny Guinn's Task Force on Tax Policy's technical working group, co-authoring its 1,400-page report and ultimately receiving a Good Government Award from the Nevada Taxpayers Association. In 2005, he served as the lead analyst for the Clark County Growth Task Force. In 2012, he worked with over 100 local governments to reform Nevada's Consolidated Tax formula.
Beyond these major projects, Aguero's company provides research and analytical services to companies ranging from the Ultimate Fighting Championship to the Regional Transportation District of Southern Nevada. Recently, Aguero has focused much of his time on the development of MyResearcher.com®, a web-based data portal scheduled for release later this year.
Aguero credits much of his success to his experience at Boyd, noting, "the only thing that helped me more than the education I received was the relationships I developed." Aguero cites Boyd's close connection to the community as essential to the school's success. Aguero continues to be active in the community. He has taught as an adjunct professor at UNLV, and he currently serves on the board of Nevada State Bank. He sits on the R&R Foundation board and is the second vice president for Opportunity Village's ARC Board. A father of three children, Aguero also coaches youth baseball and soccer.

The Verdict
As you can see, these cards provide their cash back in very different ways.
Do you spend a lot of money at the types of stores in the Freedom reward categories? If so, that 5% discount could add up to a lot over time. Just be sure to keep an eye on the category you're currently in, and remember to activate it every 3 months.
Or, if you'd rather have a card that provides the same reward for every purchase, without having to worry about which category you're in, the CashForward makes that easy. As an example of how the 5% redemption bonus works: if you spend $1,000 with this card, you'll end up with $15.75 cash back after the bonus is included.

The Verdict
The costs and fees for these cards are pretty similar, so there isn't much to decide on here. Neither one has an annual fee, and their APR ranges are about the same.
The only significant difference is that the Freedom card has a longer intro APR by 3 months.
The Bottom Line
The Chase Freedom card and the Barclaycard CashForward World MasterCard are both good cash back credit cards, offering their rewards in very different ways. Since their interest rates and fees are about the same, take a look at the other features offered by each card.
The Freedom card is great for shopping at a variety of stores and retailers, but they rotate throughout the year so you'll have to keep an eye on which category is active. The CashForward is better for easy all-around spending, providing the same reward no matter where you'll shop.
You'll also get more protections with the Freedom card – for shopping and traveling – and these can save you some money if something you buy is damaged or lost, or if you have a problem traveling. The CashForward doesn't have these benefits, but you'll be able to see your FICO score whenever you want, a great benefit to have if you're interested in improving your credit.
Remember that owning both cards is a good option as well, using the Freedom wherever you'll get the 5% discount and the CashForward for other purchases. This strategy would let you get the most out of each card, and give you access to both sets of benefits.
If you use one of these credit cards, how do you like it? Leave your own review of the Chase Freedom card or the Barclaycard CashForward World MasterCard, we'd love to hear from you!

Can we assess cerebrovascular autoregulation after head injury using brain tissue oxygen pressure reactivity?
Ist die Einschätzung der zerebrovaskulären Autoregulation nach SHT mittels Hirngewebssauerstoffdruckreaktivität möglich?
Search Medline for
|May 4, 2005
The aim of this study was to investigate whether two newly developed indices of brain tissue oxygen (PtiO2) pressure reactivity, named ORx and bPtiO2, allow an estimation of the status of cerebrovascular autoregulation after head injury? This was accomplished by validating these new indices against an established parameter of autoregulation, the cerebrovascular pressure reactivity index (PRx).
In 27 patients continuous monitoring of mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), and partial pressure of brain tissue oxygen (PtiO2) was performed for an average period of 6.5 days. ORx was calculated as a moving correlation coefficient between values of CPP and PtiO2. The bPtiO2 was calculated as a moving value of the slope of the linear regression function between CPP and PtiO2. PRx was calculated as a moving correlation coefficient between values for ICP and MAP. Outcome was assessed at six months after trauma (Glasgow Outcome Scale).
ORx and bPtiO2 correlated significantly with PRx (r = 0.55 for ORx, r=0.53 for bPtiO2, p<0.01). PRx and ORx showed a significantly negative correlation to the monitored PtiO2 values (r=-0.42 for PRx, r=-0.41 for ORx, p<0.05) and outcome (r=-0.52 for PRx, r=-0.62 for ORx, p<0.01), whereas bPtiO2 did not. ICP and CPP showed no correlation to outcome.
ORx and, to a lesser extent, bPtiO2 correlated with the autoregulatory marker PRx. This indicates that these new indices offer additional information on the status of cerebrovascular autoregulation after head injury. The data also suggested that patients with impaired autoregulation are at increased risk for secondary cerebral hypoxia and worse outcome.

Arranged for Schoenberg's 1918 Society for Private Musical Performances, these reductions were designed to highlight the fresh perspective a stripped-back orchestration could offer the listener. With this recording, Trevor and the Academy launch a series of performances and recordings which are retrospectively reigniting Schoenberg's vision of performing chamber reductions of symphonic repertoire, including newly commissioned arrangements for this series.
Erwin Stein's visionary transformation of Mahler's neo-classicist symphony is for fifteen players and soprano (Sonia Grane). A Mahler symphony of more modest proportions, it lends itself perfectly to a chamber arrangement. Benno Sachs' re-orchestration of Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune retains many of the sounds of Debussy's original, using the span of the piano to fill out gaps in the texture, and the harmonium to sustain missing parts in the winds, additions which add much interest and afford a new coherence and sensuality to the melodic line.
A 24-bit 192 kHz studio master for this album is available from the Linn Records website.
Presented in the concerts was a mixture of solo, chamber and orchestral works, the last of which were either realised in keyboard arrangements or through a sizeable chamber ensemble, typically comprising a handful of wind instruments, a string quintet, harmonium and piano. The works performed were not, however, restricted to the Second Viennese School; rather, Schoenberg was keen to programme any living composers whom he felt exhibited a distinctive voice. This included music by Ravel, Debussy, Reger, Strauss, Mahler and Bartók, amongst many others. Indeed, Schoenberg forbade the programming of any of his own works until the society's second season.
The idea of a chamber reduction of a large-scale orchestral work was one that fascinated Schoenberg, who argued that stripping away layers offered fresh perspectives on the composer's craft. Reductions, necessarily requiring fewer players, were also more affordable options for the financially squeezed Verein. Nevertheless, the Verein ceased meeting at the very end of 1921, owing to the austerity resulting from Viennese hyperinflation.
Published in 1876, Stéphane Mallarmé's poem, L'après-midi d'un faune (The Afternoon of a Faun), is a sensuous evocation of this mythical half-man, half-goat's libidinous and sultry daydreaming about a passing group of nymphs. As a young man, Debussy had set one of the poet's earlier works and would go on to become more intimately acquainted with Mallarmé's symbolist style through the latter's weekly artistic soirées – a familiarity that eventually led to Debussy's musical complement to this erotic text. Thus, in 1892, Debussy started composing a work intended to be the 'Prélude, interludes et paraphrase finale pour l'après-midi d'un faune'; yet his project was cut short by the competing completion of his celebrated opera, Pelléas et Mélisande, leaving only the Prélude.
This single movement is an examination of orchestral colour, from the singular delicacy of the opening flute's lingering line, through suggestive swells, to more pungent and reedy pastoralism. Indeed, Saint-Saëns was less than kind about the work, stating that 'It is as much a piece of music as the palette a painter has worked from is a painting'.
Both Debussy and Ravel made their own keyboard arrangements of the Prélude (1895 and 1910 respectively), Ravel stating that he would like the work performed at his funeral. The chamber arrangement made for the Verein, whilst often attributed to Schoenberg, actually appears to have been made by another member of the society, Benno Sachs, who had been a student of Schoenberg and acted briefly as the Corresponding Secretary for the Verein. Schoenberg offered clear advice about how to approach such arrangements, which Sachs seems to have followed closely. As a re-orchestration it retains many of the sounds of Debussy's original, using the span of the piano to fill out gaps in the texture, and the harmonium to sustain missing parts in the winds, additions which add much interest and afford a new coherence and sensuality to the melodic line. Indeed, because the original eschews trumpets, trombones and percussion (apart from the distinctive antique cymbals), this 'miniaturisation' does not lose much by way of colour – thanks to inventive substitutions – even if the spectrum of intensity is somewhat diminished. For example, in the opening passage, the clarinet re-enters earlier than in the original, so as to fill in a missing horn line.
A poetic stimulus also underlies Mahler's Symphonie No 4, this time from his formative discovery of the collection of folksongs, Des Knaben Wunderhorn ('The Boy's Magic Horn') in the late 1880s. The first four symphonies all include references to Wunderhorn, which led Mahler to suggest that they were a quasi-tetralogy, with the fourth as its 'tapering, topmost tower'.
Certainly, the symphony's more modest proportions lend themselves to both this description and a chamber arrangement. Omitting both trombones and tuba – even if he had considered their inclusion in the climax of the slow movement – and content with just triple woodwinds (except the flutes), the relatively benign forces confused the audiences who were just becoming accustomed to Mahler's big-boned works and original structures. It was also the first of his symphonies to adopt the traditional four movements (the first symphony having originally comprised five).
Although by the end of his life Mahler had dispensed with explicit musical programmes, this symphony is coloured by references. For example, the violin solo in the second movement, with its deliberately sharpened strings, evokes the sound of a folk fiddler, who is perhaps himself some sort of macabre figure, Mahler having labelled the solo in his sketches with the phrase 'Brother Hain strikes up'. Similarly, the third movement is a set of variations spelled out through rondo form, the theme of which reminded Mahler of his mother's 'sad and yet laughing' face.
At the symphony's heart – although not revealed until the final, fourth movement – is a vocal setting of the Wunderhorn poem Das himmlisches Leben ('The Heavenly Life', although later renamed by Mahler as 'What the child tells me'), which he had originally intended to be the finale of his third symphony. Its naivety informs each movement, as Mahler tried to capture the 'undifferentiated blue of the sky', directing the singer to adopt a 'childlike, cheerful expression, entirely without parody'. It is this heavenly aspiration that also led Mahler to consider calling this symphony a 'humoresque', as he understood humour to be a key to a 'higher world'.
Three of Mahler's symphonies were performed at the Verein: the sixth and seventh in keyboard arrangements, and his fourth in the present reduction for fourteen instruments and solo soprano. This arrangement – premièred on 10 January 1921 with the soprano Martha Fuchs – was made by one of Schoenberg's earliest composition pupils, Erwin Stein, who also took over the directorship of performances in the Verein from 1920. The exercise is a revealing one, as both Stein's choices and the nature of such reduction expose more of Mahler's counterpoint through the leaner textures: a logical extension of the original's chamber-like ideals. In the years following the closure of the society the original instrumental parts were lost, only recently to be reconstructed by Alexander Platt from Stein's annotations on a complete score of the symphony.

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a fab weekend!
Tomorrow is of course Diamonique Day, a seventeen hour live showcase of simulated diamonds set in precious metals.
I know lots of you already love our Diamonique range but for those of you who are new to QVC, Diamonique is our exclusive range of simulated diamond jewellery. It gives you the opportunity to own so many different styles and designs at a fraction of the cost of the real thing!
If you love the bold, extravagant look, tune in at 3pm tomorrow for 'Diamonique – Get Your Rocks On'. We'll be presenting some fantastic big designs and let's face it, if they were real diamonds we'd probably have no chance of even seeing them let alone owning them!
You may love classic solitaire pieces and if you do you won't be disappointed with the Diamonique Classics Collection at 8pm. As always you'll find the full line-up on our seven day tv guide.
A recent survey has revealed the top ten most iconic jewellery pieces from films. When you think about it, jewellery has always had a big association with film, ever since the early days of Hollywood.
Jewellery was always aspirational and exclusive, especially glitzy design-led pieces. Of course now, no matter what your budget, it's still possible to 'get the look'.
In at number five on our list of most iconic film jewellery is this yellow diamond necklace from How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days'.
Taking fourth position on the list is this ruby and diamond necklace from the hit movie 'Pretty Woman'.
Do you remember Julia Roberts getting her fingers snapped by the box that contained this necklace?
At number three was Marilyn's diamond necklace in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes'.
The second position was taken by the Pearl necklace featured in that stunning classic 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'.
And at number one… it's the Heart of the Ocean from the blockbuster 'Titanic'!!
Ok I've got a confession now, all the pieces pictured aren't actually the real deal… they're all Diamonique replicas! The Heart of the Ocean (left) would cost just £320 in Diamonique compared to £2,200,000 using precious stones.
Tomorrow afternoon QVC will be at London's Hatton Garden with our Diamonique pop-up store! Where better to show off our range of simulated diamonds than in one of the most famous diamond shopping areas?! We'll even be showing off our iconic film necklaces on live models!
The store will be open from midday until 7pm and you'll find it at 23-27 Hatton Wall. I'll be heading over tomorrow afternoon at around 2pm. If you can't go yourself, I'll be Skyping into the 3pm show which is 'Diamonique – Get Your Rocks On', so you'll be able to see the store on camera.
Our Diamonique buyer reveals more about the day…
Now I've been speaking to the people in the know to get even more gossip on tomorrow's Diamonique spectacular. See what Diamonique Buyer Emily had to say when I caught up with her last week…
Having trouble viewing this video? See YouTube's Help page
In a recent survey 80 per cent of British women revealed that imitation gems were more desirable than real ones, when considering they cost a fraction of the price but still look very similar.
It also seems that people really do struggle to tell the difference, just take a look at our Diamonique Challenge page. Miceal took to the streets of London to test the masses with some interesting reactions!
Why not get warmed up ahead of tomorrow by visiting our fresh new Diamonique page? You can even leave your Diamonique Moment stories, you'll find the link at the bottom of the page.
Enjoy the rest of your day, I'll see you on the Diamonique Day Morning Show tomorrow!

DETROIT (AP) – A Saudi man arrested at Detroit Metropolitan Airport after allegedly lying about why he was traveling with a pressure cooker asked to be released on bond Monday.
Hussain Al Khawahir, 33, was arrested May 11 by federal agents at the airport in Romulus, Mich., and charged with giving false statements to federal agents and possessing an altered passport.
Defense lawyer James C. Howarth filed a motion asking a Detroit federal judge to set bond for Al Khawahir, who didn't initially seek release.
Howarth has said his client didn't know at the time of his arrest that pressure cookers were used in the Boston Marathon attack and was bringing the pressure cooker for use by his nephew, a student at the University of Toledo in Ohio.
U.S. Justice Department lawyers did not immediately return an email from The Associated Press asking if they oppose Al Khawahir's release request. U.S. Customs and Border Protection also has a detention order for him, and he would need to clear it as well to gain release.
Howarth used the motion to challenge the government's case, saying that Al Khawahir carried a valid, current Saudi passport as well as an expired passport, "purportedly altered," that contained a visa stamp for his entry to the U.S.
Howarth said the difference between two explanations that Al Khawahir gave federal agents about why he was bringing the pressure cooker – that his nephew couldn't find one in the U.S. and that the ones available here were defective – were "possibly a distinction without much difference."
He said Al Khawahir "represents neither a risk of flight nor a danger to a person or the community."
Al Khawahir's next scheduled court date is May 28 for a hearing on whether there's enough evidence for the case to proceed.
In his motion, Howarth said his client contacted his nation's diplomats immediately after the arrest, and the government of Saudi Arabia "pledged its support" of him.

New Study Suggests Mars Viking Robots Found Life 172
techfun89 writes "New analysis of data, now 36 years old, from the Viking robots, suggests that NASA had found life on Mars. This conclusion was published by an international team of mathematicians and scientists this week. The Labeled Release experiment looked for signs of microbial metabolism in soil samples in 1976. The general thinking was that the experiment had found geological not biological activity. However, the new study approached things differently. Researchers broke the data into sets of numbers and analyzed the results for complexity. What they found were close correlations between the Viking results' complexity and those of terrestrial biological data sets. Based on this they concluded that the Viking results were more biological in nature than just geological processes."

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. Mary Zingaro listened attentively on Thursday to Gov. Andrew Cuomos announcement of new legislation that the governor's office said would establish the strongest standards and practices in the nation for protecting people with special needs and disabilities.
Zingaros son, Joe, lives in a facility for the developmentally disabled in Westchester. Theyre going to investigate, said Zingaro. Im hoping that this will ... stop the abuse we have in houses, she said.
Cuomos proposed legislation, announced in the College of New Rochelle's Maura Hall, would create a Justice Center for the Protection of People with Special Needs, to improve how the state protects more than one million New Yorkers in state-operated, -certified, or -licensed facilities, and programs. If the bill is not passed by the state Legislature before it goes into recess in seven weeks, Cuomo's office said, it would have to be brought back when legislators return in January.
The center would have a special prosecutor, and a person who investigates reports of abuse and neglect. The center would also prosecute allegations that elevate to criminal offenses, Cuomo's office said. A 24/7 hotline would also be run by trained professionals. A statewide database would also track all reports of abuse and neglect and there would be a statewide register of workers who have committed serious acts of abuse.
The governors proposed legislation is the strongest, and most comprehensive plan in the country for preventing abuse and neglect before it happens, and for responding to reported incidents, said Clarence Sundram, Cuomos special adviser on vulnerable persons.
It covers five of the states health and human services agencies, as well as the state Education Department, and sets forth a clear consistent set of standards to guide the behavior of employees in all systems. It provides a simple system for reporting allegations, and a consistent response by trained investigators to all reports, he said.
"The governors proposed legislation," he added, "will affect over one million New Yorkers and their families. The legislature should take swift action to enact this bill into law.
Cuomo said in his announcement that most employees who work in special needs houses are good ones, but said that there needs to be a process for handling, preventing, and reporting cases of abuse.

"Fantastic feeling better book"
Listening to the audio book it just put me in the zone enough to motivate me and my son to make even more changes to our eating habits. Thank you for the guidance to be the best we can be.
"great book"
really enjoyed listening to this book it has inspired me to change my lifestyle and get healthy
This was the perfect woman for writing a book like this. She has lived, made mistakes and lived again.
Loved listening to Michelle reading her own book and I plan to JFDI it! Highly recommend this book
"Potentially inspiring"
I liked the upbeat narration. Michelle has the potential to inspire others, however her book is more autobiography than self-help. There are few action steps one can follow. A lot of advice is common sense, mostly about working out, and it tends to be repetitive.
Michelle has clearly always been an active, engaged person with a strong desire to succeed in the world of fitness. Those with emotional or motivational struggles may not find her advice to "just get on and do it" all that helpful.
"Positively adore Mish"
as one of her original support crew for the 12WBT program, Michelle has been my role model for many years now. This audiobook was great as I've missed her in my ear but she's still in my head on a daily basis. great book!!
"Excellent! Great to see a writer narrating her own work"
Excellent! Great to see a writer narrating her own work.
She reads with passion giving the book the energy the content deserves
"very motivational"
the book is very motivational and inspiring.
reminded me of my dreams and goals and working towards them. JFDI is my favorite!
"Make it happen"
A lot of psycho babble claptrap. Best part of book was listening to some Australian expressions . Would not recommend.

I mentioned before, there are really just two parts to this whole thing:Mapping your Google Sites website to your custom domain is fairly simple, really. When you take out all of the technical terms (DNS, CNAME, subdomain, alias, etc...), mapping a Site to your custom domain is not all that complicated. As
For the duration of this post, let's use the following assumptions:
- You need to tell your registrar/DNS host where to send requests for your subdomains ("www", "mail", "sites", etc.) by entering the CNAME pointing to ghs.google.com
- You also must tell Google what to do with requests to the subdomain specified in #1 through either your Site's "General" page, or your Google Apps control panel.

- Your domain is called "example.com"
- GoDaddy is your DNS host / registrar

- You have built a site which you have named "mycoolsite"
- You want visitors to see "mycoolsite" when they type www.example.com into their browsers

Taste of Persia: A Cook's Travels Through Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, and Kurdistan
ISBN: 1579655483 | 2016 | PDF | 400 Pages | 51 MB
Though the countries in the Persian culinary region are home to diverse religions, cultures, languages, and politics, they are linked by beguiling food traditions and a love for the fresh and the tart. Color and spark come from ripe red pomegranates, golden saffron threads, and the fresh herbs served at every meal. Grilled kebabs, barbari breads, pilafs, and brightly colored condiments are everyday fare, as are rich soup-stews called ash and alluring sweets like rose water pudding and date-nut halvah.
Our ambassador to this tasty world is the incomparable Naomi Duguid, who for more than 20 years has been bringing us exceptional recipes and mesmerizing tales from regions seemingly beyond our reach. Nearly 125 recipes, framed with stories and photographs of people and places, introduce us to a culinary paradise where ancient legends and ruins rub shoulders with new beginnings-where a wealth of history and culinary traditions makes it a compelling place to read about for cooks and travelers and for anyone hankering to experience the food of a wider world.

As consumers shift to smartphones and tablets and away from personal computers, Facebook and Google are increasing efforts to court customers on the move. Waze, whose mobile app solicits input from more than 40 million users to improve directions and display traffic and road-hazard details, would help Google add social features to its mapping tool. It may also help Google extend its dominance in maps over rival Apple Inc.
"Google needs to maintain supremacy in maps, as they are a key to mobile advertising," Andrew Frank, an analyst at Gartner Inc., said in an email to Bloomberg. "They need more ways to shore up their social efforts."
Google has been discussing a deal with Waze at least since May 23, when Bloomberg News initially reported the talks. The acquisition plan was first reported yesterday by Globes, an Israeli financial daily. Globes listed the price as $1.3 billion.
