Testicular Injuries
It hurts to even think about it. A baseball takes an unexpected bounce when you're crouched and waiting to field a grounder, an opponent misses a kick on the soccer field and his foot has only one place to go, or you're speeding along on your bike and you hit a big bump. All result in one really painful thing — a shot to the testicles, one of the most tender areas on a guy's body.
Testicular injuries are relatively uncommon, but guys should be aware that they can happen. So how can you avoid injury?
Why They Happen and What You Can Do
If you're a guy who plays sports, likes to lift weights and exercise a lot, or leads an all-around active life, you've probably come to find out that the testicles are kind of vulnerable and can be injured in a variety of ways.
Because they hang in a sac outside the body (the scrotum), the testicles are not protected by bones and muscles like other parts of your reproductive system and most of your other organs. Also, the location of the testicles makes them prime targets to be accidentally struck on the playing field or injured during strenuous exercise and activity.
The good news is that because the testicles are loosely attached to the body and are made of a spongy material, they're able to absorb most collisions without permanent damage. Testicles, although sensitive, can bounce back pretty quickly and minor injuries rarely have long-term effects. Also, sexual function or sperm production will most likely not be affected if you have a testicular injury.
You'll definitely feel pain if your testicles are struck or kicked, and you might also feel nauseated for a short time. If it's a minor testicular injury, the pain should gradually subside in less than an hour and any other symptoms should go away.
In the meantime, you can do a few things to help yourself feel better such as take pain relievers, lie down, gently support the testicles with supportive underwear, and apply ice packs to the area. At any rate, it's a good idea to avoid strenuous activity for a while and take it easy for a few days.
However, if the pain doesn't subside or you experience extreme pain that lasts longer than an hour; if you have swelling or bruising of the scrotum or a puncture of the scrotum or testicle; if you continue to have nausea and vomiting; or if you develop a fever, get to a doctor immediately. These are symptoms of a much more serious injury that needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
Serious Testicular Injuries
Examples of serious testicular injury are testicular torsion and testicular rupture.
Testicular torsion is when the testicle twists around, cutting off its blood supply. It's rare, but when it does happen it's often for no obvious reason. Occasionally torsion is brought on by a serious trauma to the testicles or strenuous activity.
Testicular torsion is an emergency. It usually affects guys ages 12 to 18, so if you think it's happening to you, go to the emergency room right away.
If doctors fix a torsion within 4 to 6 hours of the time the pain starts there's usually no lasting damage to the testicles. But if a torsion isn't fixed within that timeframe, there's a high chance of losing a testicle or having permanently reduced sperm production. Doctors sometimes fix a torsion manually by untwisting the testicle. If that doesn't work, they do a simple surgery.
Testicular rupture is a rare type of testicular trauma. This can happen when the testicle receives a forceful direct blow or when the testicle is crushed against the pubic bone (the bone that forms the front of the pelvis), causing blood to leak into the scrotum. Testicular rupture, like testicular torsion and other serious injuries to the testicles, causes extreme pain, swelling in the scrotum, nausea, and vomiting. To fix the problem, surgery is necessary to repair the ruptured testicle.
Seeing a Doctor
If you have to see a doctor, he or she will first need to know how long you have been experiencing pain and how severe your discomfort is. To rule out a hernia or other problem as the cause of the pain, the doctor will examine your abdomen and groin.
In addition, the doctor will look at your scrotum for swelling, color, and damage to the skin and examine the testicle itself. Because infections of the reproductive system or urinary tract can sometimes cause similar pain, your doctor may do a urine test to rule out a urinary tract infection or infection of the reproductive organs.
Preventing Testicular Injuries
It's wise to take precautions to avoid testicular injuries, especially if you play sports, exercise a lot, or just live an all-around active life. Here are some tips to keep your testicles safe and sound:
- Protect your testicles. Always wear an athletic cup or athletic supporter when playing sports or participating in strenuous activity. Athletic cups are usually made of hard plastic, are worn over the groin area, and provide a good degree of shielding and safety for the testicles. Cups are best used when participating in sports where your testicles might get hit or kicked, like football, hockey, soccer, or karate.
An athletic supporter, or jock strap, is basically a cloth pouch that you wear to keep your testicles close to your body. Athletic supporters are best used when participating in strenuous exercise, cycling, or doing any heavy lifting. - Check your fit. Make sure the athletic cup and/or athletic supporter is the right size. Safety equipment that's too small or too big won't protect you as effectively.
- Keep your doctor informed. If you play sports, you probably have regular physical exams by a doctor. If you experience testicular pain even occasionally, talk to your doctor about it.
- Be aware of the risks of your sport or activity. If you play a sport or participate in an activity with a high risk of injury, talk to your coach or doctor about any additional protective gear you should use.
Participating in sports and living an active life are great ways to stay fit and relieve stress. But it's important to make sure your testicles are protected. When you're exercising or playing sports, make sure that using protective gear is part of your routine and you'll be able to play hard without fear of testicular injury!

2010 USC preview: Key to the defense
It's time to roll out our USC season preview, in four parts.
The first three -- keys to the offense and defense, and 2010's breakout player, all with accompanying polls -- are headed your way today. Part 4 -- an analysis of the biggest obstacles the Trojans face this season -- is on tap for Saturday.
The roles have reversed for USC's defense. The front seven is now the veteran group, and the secondary is full of youth. Projected to join senior cornerback Shareece Wright are freshman cornerback Nickell Robey and sophomore safeties T.J. McDonald and Jawanza Starling. The fifth defensive back, Torin Harris, is a redshirt freshman. Not that they aren't gifted. Robey showed athleticism and playmaking ability in his first training camp; Harris has had multiple interceptions; and McDonald and Starling both have size, range and pop. But growing pains, particularly early in the season, are inevitable for this green group.

Chevron Corp. has signed petroleum agreements related to three offshore areas in Morocco, a push to expand its footprint in frontier basins. The oil and gas company has signed the agreements with Morocco's Office National Des Hydrocarbures Et Des Mines which, once awarded, will allow Chevron to acquire seismic data and conduct studies in deepwater areas known as Cap Rhir Deep, Cap Cantin Deep and Cap Walidia Deep located between 60 miles and 120 miles west and northwest of Agadir, Morocco. The areas encompass about 11,300 square miles with average water depths ranging from between 330 feet to 14,700 feet. "This is an opportunity for Chevron to expand its already strong presence in the region and allows us to acquire further knowledge about promising geology in an emerging area," said Ali Moshiri, president of Chevron Africa and Latin America Exploration and Production Co. Chevron has a 75% working interest in the three areas, with the Office National Des Hydrocarbures Et Des Mines holding the remaining 25%. Chevron and other large oil and gas producers have been suffering the impact of a shaky global economy on oil and gas prices. In November, Chevron reported its third-quarter earnings fell 33%, missing expectations as its oil and gas production was disrupted by maintenance, legal issues and storms, and a refinery fire in California caused a sharp drop in fuel sales. Earlier this month, the second-largest U.S. oil company by market value said it expects its fourth-quarter profit to rise compared with the previous quarter, benefiting from gains on assets and increased U.S. and international production. Last month, Chevron said its Australian unit made two more natural-gas discoveries in the Exmouth Plateau area of the Carnarvon Basin, a hydrocarbon basin offshore western Australia.

A fever is a rise in body temperature. It's usually a sign of infection. The fever itself is generally harmless and probably helpful. Fevers usually don't need treatment.
The average body temperature is 98.6 F (37 C). But normal body temperature can range between 97 (36.1) and 99 (37.2) or more. Your body temperature can vary depending on how active you are or the time of day. Generally, older people have lower body temperatures than younger people.
The following thermometer readings generally indicate a fever:
When you or your child is sick, the main goal is to relieve discomfort and promote rest. Treating a fever neither shortens nor particularly prolongs the course of an illness.
Children with relatively high fevers may not look or act particularly sick. Treating a fever depends on the degree of discomfort. If your child is uncomfortable or restless, these home care strategies may help:
Give your child acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) or ibuprofen (Advil, Children's Motrin, others) as directed on the label.
Note these precautions:
Treat adults with a fever based on how they look and feel. Adults with fevers of 103 F (39.4 C) or higher will generally look and act sick. Use the same home care strategies as listed for children.
Get medical help for a fever if:
Seek emergency medical care if your child has a fever after being left in a hot car or other such potentially dangerous situation and shows any of these warning signs:
Always use a digital thermometer to check someone's temperature. Various types are available, including:
Because of the potential for mercury exposure or ingestion, glass mercury thermometers have been phased out and are no longer recommended.

Finally A Hot Tub Headrest That Works!
After years of issues dealing with poorly placed, deteriorating pillows, we believe we've finally come up with the ultimate hot tub pillow design. Our new telescoping design adjusts to perfectly fit varying heights of bathers. The pivoting mechanism also cradles the neck to maximize the comfort.The pillows are still removable for cleaning but will never be found floating around the spa. Finally, we've changed the product the pillows are made from. Most pillows are made from a polyurethane foam. These pillows absorb water and can deteriorate quite quickly in a hot tub environment.
Our new pillow is made of a rubber like material called EVA. This material (used for CROC™ shoes) unlike foam, does not absorb water or deteriorate.

College students and business professionals will have an opportunity to learn about ethical decision-making and corporate social responsibility during an upcoming conference at Indiana State University.
The sixth annual Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility Conference will take place April 4. The event will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Hulman Memorial Student Union on campus and includes over 20 concurrent sessions on a variety of topics and several general sessions. The theme of the conference is "Ethics: One Size Fits All?" Conference attendees will learn more about the ethical dilemmas people encounter on a regular basis, said ISU junior Kelsie Noble.
"They will also leave with a greater understanding of what to do in these types of situations, since most of the time there is no clear answer for how to be 'ethical' or 'socially responsible,'" said Noble, a double major in business management and marketing from Terre Haute who is helping to organize the event. "I think this is especially important because these topics are so common, and yet many of us may not know how to handle these situations appropriately."
David Robinson, ISU assistant professor of management, will open the conference with his presentation, "Ethical Choices Meet Hollywood Cinema." People attending the conference will have the option of listening to one of two keynote speakers, who will give lunchtime presentations. Michael G. McMillan, director of ethics and professional standards at the CFA Institute, will present "Ethical Decision Making in the Investment Management Industry," while Catherine S. Herr, senior director of global manufacturing procurement at Eli Lilly and Co., will present "Maintaining a Sense of Ethics in Difficult Times."
The sessions range in subject matter from discussing ethics and effectiveness in marketing to potential ethical dilemmas that could arise when college athletes are paid. Another presentation focuses on Social Security, as well as one on payday lenders.
In all, more than 40 presenters will be participating in the conference.
"The purpose of this conference is to create a greater awareness of current ethical dilemmas and situations across a wide variety of industries," Noble said. "The importance of ethics and social responsibility is becoming more and more prominent in the workforce, and it's essential for people to be aware of these issues."
More information about the conference can be found at: www.indstate.edu/ethics. The conference is being organized by business students enrolled in the Networks Professional Development Program, a four-year comprehensive curriculum with focused activities designed to cultivate professional and leadership skills of ISU students. The award-winning program is part of the Networks Financial Institute in the Scott College of Business at ISU.

Playoff position clinched
A two-point loss was as good as a win for the Kwantlen Eagles.
The women's basketball team lost a double-digit lead in the third quarter and went on to lose 64-62 to the Langara Falcons last Thursday night at the Surrey campus of Kwantlen Polytechnic University.
But the Eagles, 55-46 winners over the Falcons in Vancouver earlier in the season, won the season series on point-differential and clinched the final playoff position in the PacWest league.
Kwantlen, with a 6-9 (won-lost) record, is a game better than Langara with one league game remaining for both teams.
"We played a full game but lost that (11-point) lead when Langara caught up to us multiple times at the free-throw line," said Eagles assistant coach Emily Wright. "They went on a 10 – 0 run with seven of those points coming from the free-throw line."
Kwantlen led 29-26 at half-time, and 50-43 after three quarters, only to be outscored 21-12 in the final frame.
Samantha McPhail was dominant for the Eagles, leading the team with 14 points and 10 rebounds. Anna Work contributed with 10 points, six rebounds and four steals, while Cassandra Micona recorded nine points, three assists and three steals.
Kwantlen's men's team saw its playoff chances all but dashed following a 99-70 loss on home court Thursday against the Falcons.
The Eagles are now tied for the final playoff position with Douglas College Royals, each team with 6-9 records. Douglas, however, has won the season series and will face the 1-13 Columbia Bible College Bearcats Saturday.
Kwantlen, in need of a win and a Douglas loss to advance to the postseason, hosts the 11-3 University of Northern B.C. Timberwolves tomorrow (Friday) at 8 p.m.
Ali Bosir of Surrey was the top scorer for Kwantlen with 19 points, also grabbing 10 rebounds. Jasmin Demirovic chipped in with 13 points, Mark Mitchell added 12 and Surrey's Aaron Ram scored 10.

7 Ways You Know Summer Is Approaching Hatfield
The clocks have gone forward an hour and while we cried ourselves to sleep over losing that precious hour of catch-eye, we're somewhat relieved as the evenings feel longer, we don't have to wear our #GoHerts hoodie everywhere and we can now rock socks & slides without getting damp toes! So here's the 7 ways you know that summer is about to hit the University of Hertfordshire!
5 Positive Approaches Nobody Tells About Becoming A Yoga Teacher
There seems to be this myth that yoga teachers have no good life or yoga teaching is not worthy because of many reasons. Also, people keep prompting that teachers have no life balance, as if those have, after working for 40 hours in a cubicle! The best thing about being a yoga instructor or teacher is at least they can create their working hours independently. Well, everything has its good side and bad as well. But, what is beneficial at the end is thinking positive and having positivity in oneself. Via this guest blog, many people will come to know about the positive approaches of becoming a yoga instructor with certification. There are rare cases and scenarios where there is a discussion of positive notes about being a yoga instructor or teacher.

Best grown in acidic (pH of 4.8 to 5.2), organically rich, medium to wet, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Shallow, fibrous roots need constant moisture and good drainage. Plants appreciate a good organic mulch. Although blueberries are self-fertile, cross-pollination produces the best fruit crop (larger berries and larger yields). If grown for fruit production, there are many excellent cultivars which should be considered rather than the straight species. Best to remove flowers from plants in the year of planting and in the following year so as to prevent fruit set and to encourage new vegetative growth. Prune as needed in late winter beginning in the third year after planting.
Vaccinium corymbosum known as highbush blueberry is native to eastern North America where it typically grows in moist woods, bogs, swamps and low areas. It is an upright, deciduous shrub that typically grows 5-8' tall.
Genus name comes from an ancient Latin name apparently derived from a prehistoric Mediterranean language.
Specific epithet refers to the flowers and fruits being in a corymb.
No serious insect or disease problems. Birds love the fruit, so plants may need to be covered with netting as the fruit begins to ripen in order to protect the crop. Chlorosis (yellowing of leaves) may occur in high pH soils. Potential but infrequent disease problems include stem blight, root rot, anthracnose, cane cankers, mildew and botrytis.
This versatile shrub has excellent ornamental value separate and apart from the fruit crop: white spring flowers, dark green summer foliage, red fall color and reddish winter stems. Effective in shrub borders or as part of less formal shrub plantings such as in native plant gardens or open woodland areas. Particularly effective in conjunction with rhododendrons and azaleas which share similar acidic soil requirements. Also makes an excellent hedge with the added benefits of summer fruit which can be harvested or left for the birds.

text: William Sloane Coffin, Jr.Clergyman / ActivistBorn: 1 June 1924 Died: 12 April 2006 (heart failure) Birthplace: New York, New York Best known as: The Yale chaplain who opposed the U.S. war in Vietnam William Sloane Coffin, Jr., came to public attention as chaplain of Yale University for opposing U.S. racial segregation and the war in Vietnam. With an upper-class upbringing and experience as a World War II intelligence officer and a Cold War CIA agent, he gave patriotic as well as religious reasons for his sometimes controversial activism as a Christian minister. In the early 1960s he was jailed for challenging bus, lunch counter and amusement park segregation in the South. In 1968, along with Benjamin Spock and three others, he was convicted of conspiracy for helping hundreds of students return military draft cards to the government--a conviction overturned on appeal. He later crusaded for disarmament while senior minister of The Riverside Church in New York City and president of the political action group SANE/FREEZE. Extra credit: A graduate of Yale and its divinity school, Coffin was ordained to the ministry by a U.S. Presbyterian denomination in 1958... It's only half true that a Doonesbury comic-strip character is modeled on Coffin. Creator Garry Trudeau, a Yale student during Coffin's chaplaincy, says the Rev. Scot Sloan is also based on Trudeau's roommate, Scotty McLennan, who himself later became a university chaplain... Coffin's wives were Eva Rubenstein (married 1956-1968), daughter of pianist Arthur Rubenstein; Harriet Harvey Gibney (1969-1983); and Virginia Randolf ("Randy") Wilson (1984-2006). He and Eva had three children: Amy, Alexander Sloane and David Andrew. Copyright © 1998-2017 by Who2?, LLC. All rights reserved. |

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Continued from page 1
Forbes: You have multiple layers of offerings, is the entry point typically the same for all customers?
Woodward: It has been, but it's changing a bit. A very typical first problem we would solve might be around inventory visibility, inventory management. Companies that don't have this from us, a supplier may be short on something and they won't find out until it's literally suppose to be delivered and now they're literally in scramble mode.
The other one is better management of inventory. They typically can cut back on the amount of inventory they have on hand, because now they have much more reliable signals of what's coming. There's a huge cost savings.
What's changed a bit is as we've added a third layer to the cake – real-time analytics – we're seeing that show up in most of the new deals we're doing. Everybody really wants that. It's a huge upsell for us in our install base but it's become part of the initial package.
Simply because it looks so cool. If there's sexy in supply chain, this is it.
Forbes: There was so much talk about the fiscal cliff through the end of 2012. What did you hear from customers, did any delay deals or hold off on upgrades?
Woodward: We basically heard nothing from our customers. It was a non-event. There may have been some chatter about it, but I don't recall it affecting any deal, positively or negatively.
Forbes: What about your business? The post-IPO period is usually when growth picks up, are you still adding employees?
Woodward: We're hiring like crazy, across all departments. Last year we hired over 100 people. Some of that was turnover, but we probably net added 60-65 and we're at a little under 400 right now. And we're still hiring.
We've doubled our sales force the last two years in a row. I wouldn't expect the same rate of employee growth this next year, but we're still adding quite a few people.
Forbes: What is the competitive landscape like?
Woodward: We haven't found anybody that can do what we do without coming to a company like us. What it would take for somebody to do it on their own is just not practical from a cost or time standpoint.
Instead of them going through a multi-year rollout we can have them live in three or four months. The order of magnitude difference between trying to do it themselves and using something like ours is just dramatic.
There are companies that do similar things, but every company I know of is in a particular vertical market like retail, from the distribution center out to the retail shelf. We're really the only one that does many different verticals and across the whole supply chain. That's what I think our big opportunity is, we really have the only horizontal platform.
Forbes: Historically the majority of your business has been in the technology space. Is that changing?
Woodward: We very rapidly moved from a very tech-centric business to one that is close to half non-tech. I think going forward we'll see stronger growth outside of the core tech business simply because there are so many other potential companies to sell to.
The majority of our business today is what we define as tech broadly. We break that down into computer peripherals – so IBM, Dell, Lenovo, Seagate, those kind of guys –then what we define broadly as network – that would be Cisco, Alcatel, even RIM and Vodafone. Those two segments today are probably about 60% of our business, used to be almost 90%.
Retail and CPG [consumer products] is where we've seen the most significant new customer additions. So, McDonald's, Coca-Cola, the Gap, recently Land O'Lakes, companies like that. I think we'll see stronger growth in terms of new customer additions in the retail/CPG rather than tech.
There are two spaces I prefer not to be in, financials and autos, because they're so cyclical.
Forbes: What about regionally?
Woodward: From a direct customer perspective the majority of business is still North America, 80%-ish. The business in Asia is about 5% but growing. Just recently invested in that area, we have a data center now in Shanghai, and [a handful] of salespeople and customers. The reason we've made that investment is if you look at trading partners [of customers] we have 35,000, half of them are in China and Southeast Asia. Some of these suppliers are small companies, but some of these are huge multi-billion companies.
There is an absolute opportunity for us to start turning some of those guys into direct customers. Two of the biggest tech names in China are Huawei and Lenovo, both of which are customers. So that helps us as well, because the market in China is four to five years behind the U.S. in adoption of SaaS.
It's hard, because they just have this mentality of putting their data on a network outside of their data center is just, can't imagine. But that market is maturing, it is evolving and we can go in and say 'Jeez we've got some large tech companies in China, some of the most successful, most admired are in our data center.' I think we'll see that business become more significant in this next year.

What makes me say this is that young children at the moment can be heard saying that things are really "mega", which has become shorthand for "great', in the way that "ace" and "brill" and "lush" have been in the recent past. This never happened to "hyper". No child ever said admiringly of something "That's really hyper", as they did say "That's super". Instead, "hyper" took a downward path and became shorthand for frenzied and manic, as in "He's really hyper this morning", being short - I suppose - for "hyperactive".
All this is part of the history of abbreviations, which is a study all of its own, and I just wonder if anyone is actually studying it. There are words which are so familiar to us in English that we forget that originally they weren't words at all, just shortened versions of other words, such as "pub" and "bus".
People don't even say public house any more. It's just a pub. Anyone who said to you, "Let's pop down the public house" would sound like a German spy parachuted in somewhere around 1941. The word has even spread round the world, and people in Germany and Denmark would know automatically what a "pub" was. (They might have more difficulty in France, where "pub" is short for "publicite" and means the world of PR. Luckily, they have gender to help them out, and "la pub" is PR while "le pub" means an imitation English drinking place with pictures of the Beatles on the wall.)
Once upon a time, similarly, people must have been aware that "bus" was a smart shortening of "omnibus" and there must have been a time when the two words co-existed, but "omnibus" is never heard on people's lips any more outside the expression "the man on the Clapham omnibus".
Still, at least we remember where "bus" comes from, given a moment's thought. But how about "cab"? What is "cab" short for? Yes, gentleman at the back? Very good. It's short for "cabriolet". And what is or was a cabriolet? Yes, some kind of old horse-drawn carriage or other. But why it was cabriolet and not hansom or brougham or phaeton or one of the other words for a carriage that gave us the modern word is something that only a professor of abbreviations could tell us.
This train of thought was started by my sending off a cheque this morning to renew a subscription to that excellent magazine the Oldie, which serves the double function of acting as a corrective to youth culture and keeping Richard Ingrams out of mischief, and is thus essential on two counts. I marked my envelope "Subs Department", and I thought as I did so what a hard-working abbreviation "sub" is. It has at least three different meanings that I can think of. In the magazine world it means a subscription; in the naval world it means a submarine; and in the world of cricket it means a man who comes on as a substitute fielder and never gets any credit for catches or run-outs, but is simply listed as "Caught sub".
I don't suppose there is any danger of confusion between the three, any more than there is any danger of confusing the three kinds of coke. You might be simultaneously a user of the fuel called coke, an addict of cocaine, and a customer of the Coca-Cola company, but you would go to three very different suppliers to get your stocks, and the problem would not often arise of asking for one kind of coke and getting another.
It might be possible to get into difficulties over macs, though. Once upon a time a mac could only be a raincoat, abbreviated from the Mr Macintosh who had the bright idea of rainproofing things. Since then things have been complicated by the Mr Macintosh who lent his name to Apple computers and the Mr McDonald who sold hamburgers and savagely took to court anyone who suggested that it was ecologically wrong to do so, so it would be possible for someone to think that a Big Mac was a mega-computer and an Apple Mac was a new and disgusting kind of fruitburger.
More of this tomfoolery tomorrow. Meanwhile, can someone tell me why we say Ken High Street but not Ham Broadway or Pad Station? And why there is something called a Big Mac but nothing called a Small Mac?

Summer Lovin'
Summer 2001: paradise before the fall, a season of innocent fantasy and untroubled spectacle. It was all so different then, wasn't it? Who can remember the simple pleasures of that vanished era, never to be had again, as we whiled away our weekends in the company of Shrek, Harry Potter, and the Ocean's Eleven crew, and marveled at the latest hits from Pixar (Monsters, Inc.) and Michael Bay (Pearl Harbor).
It might be déjà vu all over again in summer of 2007maybe Chertoff's "gut feeling" is on to something after allbut there was something different about the movies back then. The year 2001 incubated an astonishingly rich and exceptionally freaky batch of cult movies: Pootie Tang, Donnie Darko, Freddy Got Fingered, Mulholland Drive, and the ultimate reject from the class of '01, Wet Hot American Summer.
Released on two screens at the end of July, the movie went on to gross a grand total of $295,206but, oh, how sweet the revenge of the nerds! Destined for consumption on the bong-stained couches of the slacker nation, Wet Hot American Summer clicked with the overeducated, undermotivated Gen X set, appealing to its sophisticated taste for calculated stupidity and memories of the most marginal '80s genre, the summer-camp comedy. Word-of-mouth popularity on DVD has triggered a WHAS attack on the midnight-movie circuit; Sunshine Cinema hosts a pair of screenings this weekend.
Wet Hot American Summer
Directed by David Wain
July 27 and 28, Sunshine Cinema
Paying homage to risqué junk of the Meatballs ilk, WHAS plays out like a low-rent hipster lark in the spirit of Soderbergh's Ocean franchise: an invitation to kick it with groovesters (or geeks, in this case) on holiday as they hang out, pal around, and amuse themselves just this side of smug. As Beth, director of Camp Firewood, Janeane Garofalo leads an ensemble of twenty- to thirtysomethings pretending to be teenagers and sets the tonethe only one she canof affable, half-ass snark. Paul Rudd does a flamboyantly disingenuous turn as a horny counselor. Christopher Meloni is a pervy cook/Vietnam vet who keeps a supply of "dick cream" in the pantry and enjoys "fondling the sweaters." David Hyde Pierce plays Henry the astrophysicist, who rallies the "indoor kids" for science experiments and saves the planet from an impending asteroid just in time for the big talent show.
Structured only by its time frame (the last day of camp) and total commitment to casualness, the movie feels tossed off in the most appealing way, bobbing along like the cute, dim-witted nephew of Dazed and Confused. It's more grins than guffaws, though a couple of bits, like the greatest gay experimentation sequence in the history of cinema, have become legendary. And it more than delivers the promise of the tagline: "High Times. Hard Bodies. Soft Rock."

The Horse Forum
- Barn Maintenance
- - Barn Managers Son really po'd me....
Barn Managers Son really po'd me.... Hey everyone, Yesterday afternoon I got a bit peeved. The BM was out for the day and her 20 yr old some was taking care of things...well if you really want to call it that! So when I arrived yesterday morning My horses blanket was still on. The horse next to her had the blanket taken off. If your thin you can squezz inbetween a post and a wall and get over to my horses side with out having to walk around the barn. So basically he was too lazy to walk around to the opposite side. I ended up taking her blanket off and leaving it off for the day. I was out there until dusk. I had a later lesson in the afternoon so It was just after evening feed time. So he comes over to the arena rail and says to me...."I am cutting Candi's feed by 2 flakes per day" I said no your not. She needs to have hay in front of her all day. Side note- his mom (The Barn Manager) and I just raised it to 3 flks grass in the am and 3 in the pm. She has only been on that for something like 3-4 days. On another side note. The rule is that when the feed becomes like bedding they will reduce the intake. Okay so before my lesson I had picked up the left over stuff and put it in her feed bin. It was not even a 1/2 flake, and was all fluffed out of course. Anyway....he got really pissy that I said no about reducing the feed. Thank goodness my trainer was there to witness and hear everything So ...after I am done with my lesson I untack etc. I go to the other barn to check my mare. To my surprise He cut her feed and she barley had even a flakes worth of Grass hay in there. Not to mention he threw her grain bucket into her feed bin because...once again he didn't want to walk around the barn to put it in her rubber feeder. I have a large peev about buckets in paddock/stall etc unless they are hung properly and even then I am not really fod of the idea. Thus i have a rubber thingy that is pretty flat and shallow for that purpose. I was LIVID. to say the least. I went and got 2 flakes of grass hay and put it in her feed bin. Jerk off !!! Sorry for the rant but I have two horses at this facility. I have been there for a year. The barn managers son is not incharge! It would have been different if the BM or the assistant BM came and said "Christine....we noticed your mare isn't eating quite everything, shall we try cutting her 1/2 flake"? It is not like this kid is there looking at who eats what on a 2 times a day basis.... Ummmhe filled in one day and did a 1/2 *** job. I plan on talking with the assistant BM today and also letting the BM know as soon as I see her. She lives on the property but was away yesterday. Okay that is my rant! Any thoughts.... HP |
I would have been pissed too. Hope your BM takes care of the situation. Stuff like this is why I HATE to board. Unfortunately I have to right now and I keep a close eye on things |
She is a really nice gal and I am fairly certain she wont be very happy with her kid! I am going out early this morning to see what her feed is like. And to see if her blanket is off. I think that she does the early feed on Sun but not certain. The Assistant bm wont be there until 9 am. I will feel out the situation then and talk to my trainer again about it. |
I feel your pain! As we've discussed on FB. I say go directly to the BM and talk to her directly and tell her exactly what you are thinking and stand up for your horses rights. You are paying them for a service, and that service has to be met. |
More BS... Apparently...The Son, has really done things in for himself. He also lied to his mom about something with another boarder. And...when I spoke with the Assistant BM She let me know he marked down many things as done and she has found they were never done. She told me not to even bring it up to the BM to just talk with the owner. The other boarder told me he lied and actually accused her of some things that I know where not even true. I was there all day. SO I will be deriving(sp) a letter or email letting the owner know I was not pleased wit the way I was approached and then I will also make a list of facts. I am really glad thatmy trainer was right there when he did approach me. Hopefully the BM wont be upset with me but it is a risk I feel I need to take. Both her and her son where riding today and I treated them as I normally would treat them. Now if he is working and representing the facility I prefer he leaves my horses alone. Unfortunately their horses are out with my Tiny who is in pasture. Now the BM is a great lady but there are some family issues I will stay out of. We are talking only about his actions or lack there of...while working and respresenting the facility as an employee... Now the other boarder has told me she too will be letting the owner know what transpired. The owner is currently out of town at a horse show and will not return until later on next week. We shall see how it all goes.... and so the drama continues... Sorry but don't with hold food from my horse when 1.) your not in a position to make that decision, and 2.) you are not a regular employee hp |
What a bum. I say whack him across the noggin with a two-by-four. Hope everything gets straightened out. :) |
Been there done that. When it involves my horses well being that is when it crosses a thin line. I will put up a fight when it comes to that point. |
Here is the letter I wrote to the BO. On Saturday March 6, I had some undesirable experiences at the barn while (S)was working. I arrived in the morning at approximately 9:15 am. When I entered the little barn I noticed that Lula had her blanket taken off but Candi still had her blanket on. At this time I had no idea that Michael was working instead of Sally. I took Candis blanket off. Later on in the afternoon about 4:15 pm I was taking a lesson with Lindsey. (S) approached me during my lesson and point blank told me he was cutting Candis feed by two flakes. She is currently being fed 3 flakes am and pm. I asked him why and his reply was that she had some left when he went to feed her. Before my lesson I had picked up the small amount of hay and put it in her feed bin. It was approximately ½ flake or less. I explained that I had put the feed in the bin and that it really wasnt much. He stated he was cutting the feed in a matter of fact way. At that point Lindsey and I both said not to cut the feed that Candi is underweight and needs to have it. This is the most perplexing thing of all. After my lesson I went into the little barn to put away my hard hat. I checked Candis feed. He had not given her the 3 flakes of hay. To my surprise he had already cut out the two flakes. I know he only gave her maybe a flake of hay. On top of that her grain bucket was tossed into the tire feed bin. When others do the grain they usually just dump the grain into the small rubber feeder in Candis paddock. A loose bucket with a handle in a pen is something I dont care much for due to the risk of a foot etc becoming caught. I dont think this was handled properly or professionally. I dont know what you can or cannot do about this but I thought it best that you understand what happened on Sat. March 6th. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this further. What do you all think?? I think it states the facts pretty clearly without implicating any other crap other than what happened. I substituted an (S) instead of his name. Thanks for reading. HP |
I can understand where you're coming from. Especially if your horse is underweight, it will need the extra feed. I'll probably get the boot for saying this but... I think you're overreacting a little. I don't think the bucket thing is a big deal. In my 19 years of being around horses (no 19 years isn't a long time!) I've never seen a horse get injured by a bucket. Maybe you should step back and step into his shoes or look at it in the big picture. He's young and will make mistakes. How warm was it that day? How heavy was the blanket? If the weather was cold or mild maybe the horse should of kept it on if he/she is underweight. And take into consideration this IS the owners son, so I know with my family an attack on one is an attack on us all. I work at a stable and though I'm not the owner or the manager I see and hear enough to know that if the horse owner complains too much they won't take you seriously the next time you cry wolf and will probably make fun of you behind your back. And it isn't just the barn I work at, everyone is guilty. It's stressful to run a barn when everyone is complaining about everything, you know? That's just my two cents, feel free to call me out. |
I totally hear what your saying. It is hard to explain the set up in the little barn, but he basically he threw the bucket in her bin because he did not want to walk around to the other side. He has been in trouble for lying and not doing his job in the past. And...he does not work there on a regular basis due him not doing his job. I have never complained about one thing at this place. About the blanket.....same thing....horses get unblanketed in the morning and are blanketed and unblanketed according to a chart provided by the owner. He clearly again...did not want to walk around to the other side to unblanket the horse. The regular employee's would never leave a bucket in the pen when not hung up. And, they would never not feed or blanket/unblanket etc. This guy works there every once in a blue moon. He really did not do his job that day but charted that he had. He didn't turn out horses either that were on the list, but marked them off and those people were charged for the turn ots. I think your a bit on the biased side because you work at a barn. But the thing to understand is no one ever cmplains at this barn and things are always handled proffesionally etc. And....no I will not give this kid a break. He was working and represent the facility and he had no authority to make feed changes. He was being flat out LAZY to not want to walk around to the other side and unblanket, and later dump the grain in the tub. I am not overreacting in my opinion. I think he didn't do his job! I have seen some nasty things happen with bucket in my life around horses. This barn never is to leave a bucket in a pen in this fashion anway! The grain bucket is either hung up or it is dumped into a container provided by the owner. He is NOT the owners son. He is the on site managers son. Yes I understand every mother will protect their son. etc etc. hp |

STJ Graduate Jeff Lowman Named 2012-13 BIG EAST Scholar-Athlete Sport Excellence Awards Winner June 21, 2013 QUEENS, N.Y. – Graduate Jeff Lowman of the St. John's men's lacrosse team has been selected by the BIG EAST Conference as one of 24 winners of the 2012-13 Big East Scholar-Athlete Sport Excellence Awards, which recognize academic and athletic achievement as well as community service. The Scholar-Athlete Sport Excellence Awards are given to one student-athlete in each BIG EAST-sponsored sport based on academic credentials, athletic accolades or performances and volunteer service to the community. To be eligible for the awards the 24 recipients had to have attained junior academic standing and posted a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.00. The winners are chosen by the BIG EAST Faculty Athletics Representative Council. Lowman, St. John's all-time saves leader, earned second-team BIG EAST distinction for the second-straight season in his final year with the Red Storm, finishing the 2013 regular season slate with a 9-2 record. His winning percentage was the best of any goalie with at least two starts in BIG EAST play and the Millersville, Md. Native finished second in the conference at 12.75 saves per game. Lowman amassed 613 saves with a 55.7 percent save percentage over his four-year career at St. John's and notched a career-high 19 saves in the Red Storm's upset of then No. 7/6-ranked Hofstra on March 19. With Lowman between the pipes for all but two games this past season, the Red Storm (9-4, 3-3) notched its most wins since program reinstatement in 2005 and the second most in St. John's lacrosse history. Only the 1992 St. John's lacrosse team topped this past season's win total with a 10-5 campaign and no other team has won more than eight games in 24 total season of St. John's lacrosse.
This year's winners of the 2012-13 Big East Scholar-Athlete Excellence Awards included four student-athletes who were chosen to the Capital One Academic All-America teams in the 2012-13 season and six who were either chosen as BIG EAST Players of the Year or earned the top individual honors at their respective conference championship in 2012-13.

Today I am working on extracting and translating a few obituaries that I think were published in the Franco-American newspaper L'Etoile. The word étoile, in French, means star. From the personal collection of Susan Johnson nee Mayotte, the obituaries I have are .jpg copies of originals that were clipped out of a newspaper. The text is all in French, so I'm only guessing that they were published in L'Etoile. However, the years of death (1934 & 1938) for the persons the obituaries were written for fit the dates of publication for this newspaper (1886 to 1957). Also, I believe it may have been the only French newspaper published in Lowell at the time these obituaries went to print. So the likelihood that they were published in L'Etoile, in my opinion, is high.
L'Etoile is available on microfilm at the Boston Public Library. Also, the Library of Congress states that the Institute Canada-American Bibliotheque in Manchester, NH, has copies of the original newspapers. Where is this Institute Canada-American Bibliotheque? Do they mean the ACGS? I'll have to look into this as Manchester is certainly closer to me then Boston.
Update: After a bit of research I am led to believe that L'Institute Canada-American is now called the Association Canado-Americiane. The ACA is a Franco-American fraternal benefit society and, according to their website, they are located at 52 Concord Street in a historic building in downtown Manchester, NH. The ACA shares the building with The Franco-American Centre and I think it is here that I will find those original copies of L'Etoile. I'm going to call them in the morning to confirm this information. Also, I do believe I will be able to find copies of L'Etoile at the Center for Lowell History, located at 40 French St. in downtown Lowell. I have submitted a query asking them if the collection is complete and if the copies are originals or on microfilm, as I would really prefer to view original copies over microfilm.

L'Etoile, 1886 - 1957, Lowell, Massachusetts
2 comments:
Michelle - came across yours while researching L'Etoile (I have an original - and complete - 24 October 1936 "Cinquantenaire" edition of the newspaper). Was wondering if you found out if any of the two organizations you mention have hard copies of the newspapers, as I'm thinking of donating the one I have... Michael

Wired took a look at how it works. Advertisement Unlike the Bowflex's rubber bands (which, coincidentally, were used by the machine being replaced, the iRED), the aRED uses piston-driven vacuum cylinders that provide adjustable resistance as the piston is pulled in or out. A flywheel system counteracts the force of the pistons to simulate the response of free weights in normal gravity.While astronauts have been just fine with their cardio, studies detailing the damaging effects of muscle lost after a long-term space mission are still coming in. A recent report stated that without exercises like those possible on the aRED, astronauts could lose up to 15% of their muscle volume, which could be difficult or even impossible to regain back on earth. So the aRED's goal is not to build muscle but simply to maintain it. Advertisement With a voyage to Mars expected to take at least six months, this is a problem that needs to be solved. Thankfully, the aRED is well on its way to keeping astronauts buffed enough for the job. [Wired Science]Reply51 repliesLeave a reply

Theft & Fraud
Gainesville Theft and Fraud Criminal Defense Attorney
Theft may include the outright taking of property with the intent to keep it (such as shoplifting) or the temporary "borrowing" or use of property with no intent to keep the property ("joyriding"). Theft may be charged as a misdemeanor punishable by up to 60 days in jail, all the way up to a first degree felony punishable by 30 years, depending on the circumstances. The level and penalty for the crime charged may depend on the amount, value, or the type of property taken, the vulnerability of the victim, or the prior history of the alleged offender. "Property" may be an object, money, or an idea, like a trade secret.
Fraud, a form of theft, involves obtaining property by deceit, such as the providing of false information in a commercial transaction to obtain property or information.
Both criminal allegations can be deeply embarrassing and damaging to reputations and livelihoods.
How may a Gainesville theft and fraud attorney assist you with a charge of theft or fraud?
Retaining a knowledgeable and experienced attorney early in the process may resolve misunderstandings or uncover important facts in an accused's defense. Diversion and restitution solutions may be negotiated early to avoid criminal liability. Overly aggressive law enforcement may be calmed with prompt provision of exculpatory information and a criminal prosecution diverted to a more appropriate place for civil dispute resolution.

And after a thinking about it too much before falling asleep that night, I realized that God's got it all planned out, and it's really up to him when we go, I did the best I could with the gifts he blessed me with.
**addendum from Kat**
I couldn't be more proud of my husband. Without a moment's hesitation, he rushed to the side of this elderly man. I have read the stats about how many people complete CPR training and still don't feel prepared to actually use those skills (60%) so it was amazing to see James react to this situation and put his knowledge to use.
And if you ever need to know this, it's 100 chest compressions/minute, or maintaining the beat to the BeeGee's Stayin' Alive.

I visited the Philippine Government website today just to review the recently published Holiday Schedule for 2010 since Twitter was filled with links to the publication. My first reaction was, "Dang, I'm living in the wrong country! I should have stayed in the Philippines just for holidays alone! 14-days total? Wow!"
Philippines Holiday Schedule for the Year 2011
January 1 – New Years Day
February 25 – People Power Day
April 9 – Day of Valor / Araw ng Kagitingan
April 21 – Maundy Thursday
April 22 – Good Friday
May 1 – Labor Day
June 12 – Independence Day
August 29 – National Heroes Day
November 1 – All Saints' Day
November 30 – Bonifacio Day
December 25 – Christmas Day
December 30 – Rizal Day
December 31 – New Year's Eve
You see, there are many Federal Holidays in the US as well but depending on the company you work for, you may be lucky to get 10 non-working holidays for the whole year. I checked my company's Holiday schedule and we are getting a total of 8 days (Woohoo!! NOT!).
The thing that struck me while visiting the website was the glaring ad that said, "We're Hiring!!". That is awesome! I'm sure that you have to be either the "top of your class or some highfalutin overseas graduate" to get a job there – – or simply know someone who knows the right people. I hope not. It's just good to know that the website has improved so much from the time I visited the site years ago.
