Andy Reid isn't wasting any time trying to rebuild the Kansas City Chiefs' moribund passing game.
The Kansas City Star reported Wednesday that the Chiefs didn't call a running play during the team portions of the first two days of training camp.
We're sure the Chiefs will work on the running game in time, but Reid has made his priorities clear early on. And with good reason. No team scored fewer points than the Chiefs last season, thanks in large part to an anemic passing attack that finished last in the NFL.
The running game, by comparison, ranked fifth. Jamaal Charles will report to camp Thursday with the rest of the veterans.
Alex Smith, Chase Daniel and Tyler Bray worked against a defense mostly comprised of rookies. Chiefs quarterbacks have yet to throw an interception in two days, which either speaks to the QB group's Steve Young-like accuracy or a complete lack of catching ability by the young defenders. You decide.
It will be interesting to see if Reid's offensive philosophy will shift in a new environment. Charles is (by far) the Chiefs' most dynamic playmaker, and Smith proved during his two Jim Harbaugh-era San Francisco 49ers seasons that he's best used in moderation.
Reid might be tempted to turn the Chiefs into a pass-first team in 2013. It's unclear if that's actually a good idea.

Exhibition From Gainsborough to Turner.
The Golden Age of English Portraiture and Landscape
in the Collections of the Louvre
from October 23, 2014 to January 26, 2015

The golden age of British painting is commonly considered to be the Georgian era—a period spanning from the 1720s to the beginning of Queen Victoria's reign in the mid-19th century. The collections of paintings, prints, and drawings at the Musée du Louvre provide insight into this exceptional time in British art history. English artists demonstrated their excellence in two genres that were especially appreciated: portraits and landscapes.
The exhibition presents several emblematic artworks by the main representatives of great English portraiture: Sir Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Gainsborough, Alan Ramsay, and George Romney, among others, as well as a fine set of portraits from the Romantic period attributed to Thomas Lawrence and Henry Raeburn. Another key aspect of British portraiture lies in the invention of the informal group portrait known as a "conversation piece". Typical examples of this type of portraiture can also be found at the Louvre with artworks by Philip Mercier, Arthur Devis, and Johann Zoffany. The Louvre boasts a rich collection of landscape paintings with several masterpieces by Joseph Wright of Derby, Richard Parkes Bonington, John Linnell, Edward Lear, and Clarkson Stanfield. It also houses a beautiful series of paintings by John Constable and one of the finest unfinished landscapes by Turner, bordering on abstraction.
In the mid-18th century, English artists renewed with watercolor and brought it to new heights with the production of stunning landscapes inspired by their travels throughout Great Britain and the rest of Europe. They became a model for European artists, and particularly those of the Romantic generation. The Louvre collections are home to precious drawings by the great masters of the genre: Alexander and John Robert Cozens, Francis Towne, David Cox, Richard Parkes Bonington, and John Constable, not to mention J.M.W. Turner.
Organized by:
Guillaume Faroult, curator of the Department of Paintings at the Musée du Louvre, Hélène Moulin, Director of the Musée des Beaux-Arts et d'Archéologie de Valence, and Guillaume Ambroise, Director of the Musée des Beaux-arts de Quimper.

Family Education Rights and Privacy Act
The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99) is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children's education records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. Students to whom the rights have transferred are "eligible students".
Generally, schools must have written permission from the parent or eligible student in order to release any information from a student's education record. However, FERPA allows schools to disclose those records, without consent, to specific parties or under specific conditions such as health and safety, as outlined in 34 CFR § 99.31

Pac-12 M5: 11.15.13 EditionPosted by Andrew Murawa on November 15th, 2013
- With the start of the early signing period well underway, we're going to spend almost all of this morning's rundown on recruiting. And to kick things off, not only did Arizona have a big night on Thursday by getting a hard-earned victory over a tough San Diego State team, but they heard whispers of some very good things for the future as well. Stanley Johnson, a top-10 recruit out of Mater Dei in the greater Los Angeles area, will announce his decision on where he will attend school next season and the rumors are that Johnson will select Arizona over competitors like USC and Kentucky. With four-star guys Craig Victor and Parker Johnson-Cartwright already committed, Sean Miller's got the beginnings of another phenomenal class.
- On the other side of the things, Oregon State is struggling through a rough start to the season, but Beaver fans not only can celebrate the signing of a new recruit, but this specific recruit – junior college transfer Gary Payton II – offers up ties to the most recent glory days of the basketball program in Corvallis. While "The Mitten" doesn't have the accolades that "The Glove" brought to OSU, he is a strong defender like his father and will provide some excitement for the Beavers next season. Meanwhile, there are three other recruits who have already verbally committed to Oregon State who may sign in the coming days. The big question that remains is whether head coach Craig Robinson will still be around to enjoy the fruits of his recruiting labor.
- Up in the Bay Area, both Cal and Stanford have signed highly regarded recruits. Mike Montgomery signed four-star point guard Ahmaad Rorie, who had committed to the Golden Bears almost two years ago, while Stanford inked five-star power forward Reid Travis, who just committed to the Cardinal last week. Johnny Dawkins still has a couple four-star recruits in point guard Robert Cartwright and center Michael Humphrey who have already verbally committed, but they still need to make it official. And then, of course, we'll need to see if Dawkins is still around to welcome them into Palo Alto next season.
- Let's switch from NorCal to SoCal to check out what USC and UCLA got done yesterday. Trojan head coach Andy Enfield signed three players, including big guys Malik Price-Martin and Jabari Craig along with four-star point guard Jordan McLaughlin, all of whom will be significant upgrades in terms of players who fit in with the style of play that Enfield wants. Expect these three to get big roles early for the cardinal and gold. Meanwhile, across town, Steve Alford signed Kevon Looney – a five-star power forward –and Hungarian power forward Gyorgy Goloman, who is spending 2013-14 at a prep school in Florida. Looney, in particular, is a big-time get for UCLA.
- Lastly, we've got football again tonight. And, while we've got sufficient focus on basketball this time of year, we'll be sure to take a couple breaks this weekend to keep our eye on some exciting Pac-12 football. Connor and I continue our battle for prognosticating supremacy, and we're in a tight contest. Last week we both went 4-1, with Connor eking out a fun one when Arizona State knocked off Utah, and me riding Myles Freaking Jack !!!!! (yes, I believe those exclamation points are now officially a part of his name) to a UCLA win over Arizona (although I was wishing I was watching a UCLA/Arizona basketball game the whole time). On the season, Connor's still got a one-game lead on me, with him checking in at 58-15 and me at 57-16. Our game of the week comes tonight, when Washington and UCLA meet up at the Rose Bowl (a 6:00 PM football game at the Rose Bowl on a Friday night? Yeah, calling that thing half full at kick-off will be extraordinarily optimistic). I'm leaving the Bruins bandwagon to hop on Bishop Sankey and company, while Connor's going with the Bruins at home.

It's another twist in the debate over how to fund key state priorities, particularly putting $2 billion into long-neglected water infrastructure.
The Texas Senate has approved Senate Joint Resolution 1, a proposed constitutional amendment to take $5.7 billion from the rainy day fund for transportation, water and public education.
Taking money from the rainy day fund would require a two-thirds vote of lawmakers, and so would a constitutional amendment. A constitutional amendment further would require voter approval on a statewide ballot.
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Tommy Williams, R-The Woodlands, has said it's important to allocate the money through a constitutional amendment so that the money would be dedicated within the treasury and subject to legislative oversight.
The move also would remove the money from the state spending cap, which is imposed on tax revenue not otherwise dedicated by the constitution.
The Texas House last week voted down an effort to pull money from the rainy day fund for water.
House leaders and Gov. Rick Perry have turned a cold shoulder to the idea of dedicating the money through the constitution, with Speaker Joe Straus suggesting it would be punting lawmakers' responsibility to the voters.
Pitts said in an interview Wednesday that SJR 1 remains a vehicle for funding water, although he said he hasn't seen the House warming to the idea. He said Senate Bill 1, the state budget, also is a vehicle.
"We don't need a constitutional amendment to do water. We'll need 100 votes to use the rainy day fund," Pitts said.
Leaders in the House and Senate have said they don't see legislative support for breaking the spending cap, even to fund state priorities.
Paying for water without breaking the spending cap or approving a constitutional amendment could mean cutting back proposed spending in other areas.
But Pitts said budget writers weren't looking at cutting $2 billion for water out of general revenue allocated to other areas.
Abbott in his letter to Pitts said that since the rainy day fund — formally the Economic Stabilization Fund — was created, the Legislative Budget Board "has counted appropriatinos of ESF funds toward the constitutional spending limit."
"Only a constitutional amendment approved by Texas voters can remove ESF funds from the spending limit calculations mandated" in the state constitution," said Abbott's letter, dated Wednesday.
Abbott noted that his letter is not a formal opinion but informal legal advice.

Looking through cloud literature, it seems we've run out of three letter acronyms (TLA), so we're now using four letter acronyms (FLA?). Chief among these are the "as a service" acronyms which describe what level of stuff is handled by the provider. Wikipidia has some sort of explanation buried in the cloud computing page, but I thought I'd give the abridged version.
At the lowest level is "Infrastructure as a Service" (IaaS): You get a virtual server with connectivity to the internet. Examples are Amazon ECS and Rackspace Cloud. In these offerings, you can install almost anything you want (you typically get root access in some manner) and can even install the operating system of your choice. This is a good choice if you're a sysadmin who just doesn't want to muck around with physical hardware.
The next level up is "Platform as a Service" (PaaS): You get some sort of development platform hosted remotely and you have a mechanism to write and deploy applications that run on that remote platform. Often you cannot log onto the server directly and you are sandboxed into a virtual environment with pretty stringent restrictions about what you can do within it. Examples of this are Heroku for ruby and cloud bees run@cloud for java. This type of stack is good for a developer who needs to deploy an application, but doesn't know anything about the underlying technology.
At the highest level is "Software as a Service (SaaS): This is a hosted application that you simply use. Examples would be things like Lucid Chart or Gliffy. You just use this stuff and don't have any software installation or maintenance tasks.
A few providers blur the lines between IaaS and PaaS by offering hybrid solutions. An example of this is Engine Yard who provides what really is IaaS, but is largely centered around the ruby/rails platform. Amazon Elastic Beanstalk is an EC2 based java PaaS that also has more flexibily that something like run@cloud. I would say these last two are probably the most flexible PaaS solutions, but come with a bit more added complexity. They're probably the best for production deployments, but might be overkill for small applications with a limited user base.

The German born Hildesheimer brothers along with the Tuck family [http://www.emotionscards.com/museum/raphaeltuck.html] were at the forefront of the fast expanding trade in Greetings Cards in Victorian England.
Siegmund Hildesheimer was born in 1832 in Hallberstadt Germany and settled in Manchester in the mid 1870's. The 1881 census lists his occupation as Picture Importer, although, according to trade directories, he sold gilt mouldings, published oleographs, chromos and Christmas cards. He went on to trade from London, initially producing advertising cards and then postcards on a variety of subjects, but was best known for Christmas cards. Siegmund specialised in silvered, frosted and embossed cards which were printed in France or Germany, as well as more localised printers. http://www.scrapalbum.com/xmasp10.htm
The London Gazette shows the various changes to the company that took place over the years as well as those of Siegmund's brother Albert's partnership with William Faulkner http://www.scrapalbum.com/xmasp10a.htm
Much off the subject matter in these cards is, perhaps, rather "sugary" and sentimental for today's tastes, but the standard of artistry and reproduction is remarkably high and they can be an interesting barometer of the times: Siegmund Hildesheimer, for example, is said to have been among the first to depict black personages, presumably for the American market.

New Eagles coach Chip Kelly has said he can adjust his style and run a different system in the NFL than he ran at Oregon. Former Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworski says he'll have to.
Jaworski, who analyzes film in his work with ESPN, said on 97.5 The Fanatic that Kelly, who has no NFL experience at all, is much more likely to adjust his offense to the realities of the NFL than to revolutionize the NFL by bringing his spread offense to the next level.
"It's going to be interesting to see if this style of offense projects to the NFL," Jaworski said, via Phillymag.com. "I'm going to say no."
Jaworski says there are fundamental differences between the way Oregon could exploit weaker defenses in college and the way an NFL defense would attack an offense like Kelly's.
"It's easy to say, 'Yeah, it worked in college,'" he said. "But then I looked at a game like Stanford. Stanford, a good defensive football team, shut them down. I hope it works. I like the innovation, but I think it's going to be very difficult. The NFL is a different league with fast players that have all week to prepare for you. At the collegiate level, you have 20 hours to prepare for that Oregon offense. Take out three hours of game time. You've got 17 hours in the course of a week to practice and prepare for that style of offense. It kills you in college. But in the NFL, these guys work 17 hours a day. A day, not a week – 17 hours a day getting ready, so there's no secrets."
Kelly's system will certainly be different in the NFL than it was at Oregon. The question is how different. If Jaworski is right, it will need to be very different.

On Wednesday, the NBA announced the salary cap for the 2015-16 will be set at $70 million.
The Lakers are one of the many teams under the salary cap as the July signing period begins at 9:01 p.m. in Los Angeles.
The league's April projection was a cap of $67.1 million. The additional $2.9 million in spending power for teams is considerable. Instead of $22.2 million, the Lakers should have $25.1 million to spend.
The Lakers currently have just five guaranteed players under contract, along with three non-guaranteed (Jordan Clarkson, Tarik Black and Jabari Brown).
Since the start of July, during the NBA's annual moratorium, the Lakers were able to negotiate...

At the top of New Zealand: Northland
This New Zealand summer we toured Northland, more specifically the "Far North" of Northland. For more tips and advice check my blog voyagista.com
1 / 6
This New Zealand summer we toured Northland, more specifically the "Far North" of Northland on the North Island. As the name suggests it is the top of the country with relatively good and warm weather, lots of farms, a large maori population, it is where the country as we know it now was founded, and it is beautiful! The first piece of New Zealand mainland you see (if the weather is good) as you travel the Asia to NZ route to Auckland and is called Aupouri Peninsula, which is where this tour starts…
First stage : A spiritual stop at Cape Reinga
Cape Reinga is the furtherest north you can go in New Zealand (at least symbolically because it's not exactly true due to some small islands off the coast) and is the meeting place of two powerful seas. It is a sacred place for the Maori people because this is where souls of people depart to the after life. The stroll around the light house is very enjoyable and you can also head down towards Te Werahi beach to admire the view.
Second stage : Sport at Te Paki
Not far from Cape Reinga you can find little Namibia in New Zealand: the Te Paki dunes. We took our sledge and Little G on our back (it was difficult for him to walk up due to the sand) to the top of these large dunes for the slide down. The climb is exhausting and we didn't last long before needing a rest on a nearby beach.
Third stage : Alone on a secluded beach in Henderson Bay
After the Te Paki exercise, we headed to Henderson Bay. Most of the beaches in this area are totally empty but are not alway easily accessible but Henderson Bay is empty and accessible. … look nice? It is, but the water is really chilly!
Fourth stage : A wild horse safariIn the pine tree forest of Aupouri that lies along 90 miles beach live 300 wild horses. Horses have been roaming here for about 50 years. We got really lucky the day we were there and managed to get close to some of them on foot and even Little G managed to stop talking not to scare the animals…. this was a first!
Fifth stage : A public highway … that is not always open due to the tides
After seeing the wild horses, 90 Miles Beach was next on the itinerary (90 miles beach is a road in New Zealand… but rental vehicles are not allowed to take it). We went there, had a look but didn't stay long… It's impressive but wasn't our preferred beach is the area.
Sixth Stage : A white worldThe next day we headed towards the white silica beach in Great Exhibition Bay: a huge beach only accessible with a local Maori guide. My Kiwi went fishing and not only caught a snapper, it was one eyed! (much like New Zealand rugby supporters). The fish was really good to eat! The kids fell in love with the maori grandmother that was along with us on the trip and I became a pro at collecting shells on the beach that were to be dinner for some her friends and family…. all of this at a incredibly beautiful location all to ourselves! A special experience on this New Zealand trip.
Now it is time to leave this part of the country and our charming hosts at the B&B and drive towards the Bay of Islands.
Go and visit, this area of NZ is really worth it.

Touched my soul
I have decided that from time to time, I'm going to include some song lyrics on my blog. So, I'm going to list some lyrics and what they mean to me.
There's a fine line between deep introspective reflection and pretentious copying, I'm going to try to stay on the good side of that line.
Today's entry is from Feeling Good by Nina Simone
"Stars, when you shine, you know how I feel. Scent of the pine, you know how I feel. Oh, freedom is mine and I know how I feel. It's a new dawn. It's a new day. It's a new life, for me."
To me, this is an expression of the incredible joy that one finds as a result of finding his or her true purpose in life.
Nina's voice brings a haunting beauty to the words as she sings them.

It was the ending of one of George's letters that caught my eye. He wrote, "A moment of silence for Sherman. Maybe you and I will have to pick out a new pooch for your Xmas gift." While I read his letter, once again, a memory came flooding back. A memory of my mother, our dog Sherman and how George tried to make a painful situation better.
My mother was the epitome of refinement. Every soft-spoken word out her mouth became music to the ears.
Helen O'Toole was one of twelve children in a proud dirt-poor Irish American family. Upon completing the eighth grade Helen worked at a neighborhood five and dime to help supplement her father's meager wages.
Still, night after night, by the glow from a candle's flame you could see Helen's silhouette through a small bedroom window and, with her head bent forward, she'd read and reread her most recent library book. There is no doubt, the desire to learn was burned into that little girl's delicate soul.
During the late 1920's Helen set aside her struggle to survive when she fell in love with Charlie and married him. The realization that she was no longer shackled to the past allowed her to be the admirable person she dreamt of being.
Back then, Helen would often be seen hobnobbing with the Bay Village intelligentsia or as a stellar member of the Bay Village Garden Club.
Each Spring, we'd find my mother sinking her beautifully manicured nails into the soil surrounding the colorful flowers, bursting into bloom, in front of our city's stately Town Hall.
In everyone's eyes this gentile lady was a, well-intentioned, force to be reckoned with.
Right here, I'd love to say Helen never stepped out of the character she, so diligently, created for herself but, AFTER ALL, she was a mere mortal.
Her troubles began when my father appeared at our front door carrying an adorable Cocker Spaniel puppy. On the surface, bringing home the puppy seemed to be a great idea except Charlie knew, as a child, Helen had been bitten by a German Police dog and, since then, she was terrified of dogs. But following long hours of pleading to let the puppy stay and a list of stipulations mother acquiesced.
By now, the puppy had wiggled out of my father's arms and with his floppy ears and waggily tail he made a bee-line to mother and started to sniff her shoes. Then he laid the side of his face on her soft leather shoe and fell fast asleep. If, for whatever the reason, mother wasn't sold on keeping the dog that dear little animal had just sealed the deal.
As soon as he became the newest member of the Elster family we asked my mother to name him. At the time I did wonder about the strange expression on Helen's face when she gave him the grand title of Sherman of Bay Village – soon to be shortened to Sherman of Bay, anyhow, our lives went on until that horrible day.
That day seemed to be running along smoothly until Helen locked Sherman, who had grown considerably, on the back porch so mother could enjoy her afternoon ritual. Then, in her all together, she'd take a relaxing bath. And, as always, with her eyes shut and her head resting on the back of the tub she'd submerse herself beneath a blanket of bath oil and bubbles but, suddenly, the unexpected happened. She felt something wet on her cheek and it wasn't the bath water.
Sherman had escaped from the back porch, found Helen and was, happily, licking her face.
My poor frantic mother, in her confusion, instead of pushing Sherman away she pulled him into the tub with her and the two of them nearly drowned. If you haven't guessed, from that moment on, it was goodbye Sherman.
In the ambulance on the way to the emergency room, where mother was examined and released with a prescription for tranquilizers, she told us why she named the puppy Sherman of Bay. Because the first letter in the three words Sherman of Bay are SOB.
Yes, it's true, mother was a mere mortal like the rest of us.
post script – When George heard what happened he suggested we give Sherman to two brothers, Mike and Bill Taylor, who were his friends. Which we did. Unfortunately, a month later, Sherman ran into the street and a car hit him. He died on impact and that's why George offered to get me a new pooch for Christmas. I said no so he gave me a white cashmere sweater and golden cross on an intricate gold chain. While I was admiring the cross he said, "There's not a lot of gold but there is a lot of sentiment." Oh well!

Reserpine for the treatment of refractory mania

We report a case of refractory mania treated successfully with reserpine. The patient was a 26-year-old man with bipolar I disorder, who had recurrent hospital admissions for manic episodes that failed to respond to multiple mood stabilisers and antipsychotics. The patient also suffered from hypertension. His manic symptoms improved markedly with the addition of reserpine to the treatment regimen. Reserpine is a centrally acting antihypertensive with anti-adrenergic properties. It has been found to reduce the duration of a manic episode rapidly in a small group of studies. This proved to be the case with this patient. Reserpine used in conjunction with other psychotropic medication may be considered in the treatment of refractory mania, but controlled trials are necessary to support our finding more generally.
Reserpine, a Rauvolfia alkaloid with centrally acting anti-adrenergic properties,[1] was previously widely used as a first-line drug in the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension, but has largely been replaced by other antihypertensives owing to its side-effect profile. We report a case of its use in the treatment of severe refractory mania.
Case report
Mr X, a 36-year-old, Xhosa-speaking male, presented to our unit for the first time in February 2003 at age 26 years. He believed that he was very wealthy and had grand plans of single-handedly building a sports stadium for the community. He was talkative with flight of ideas and underlying irritability. He fulfilled the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)-IV criteria for a manic episode and scored 35 on the Young mania rating scale (YMRS). The patient was diagnosed with bipolar I disorder, manic phase, severe with psychotic features.
According to the patient and his family, this was his first presentation with mania and there was no history of previous depressive episodes, nor any family history of mental illness. Mr X's birth and developmental history was unremarkable and he matriculated successfully without ever having to repeat a year at school. He had been working as a machine operator for the past 5 years.
On admission there were no known medical conditions, nor any history of substance abuse. The patient stabilised within a few weeks of receiving a combination of haloperidol and sodium valproate. Upon his second admission in 2006, the patient again presented with manic symptoms. It was noted that his blood pressure (BP) was elevated, but he was not receiving treatment for hypertension. He was started on a single antihypertensive, together with a combination of haloperidol and sodium valproate, to which he responded. In 2009, the patient was admitted for the third time for a period of 5 months, during which he developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome while receiving a combination of sodium valproate and high doses of haloperidol. His manic symptoms did not respond to the single mood stabiliser; therefore, lithium carbonate was added to his treatment. The patient eventually stabilised on a combination of sodium valproate, lithium carbonate and clozapine. His hypertension was controlled on a combination of two antihypertensives. In October 2009, 3 months after discharge, Mr X was readmitted for the fourth time with a manic episode and poorly controlled BP. The same combination of treatment that had proved to be effective during the previous admission was administered, but with poor response. A trial of aripiprazole and a subsequent trial of quetiapine also failed to stabilise his condition. He developed right-sided facial paralysis and was admitted to the medical department where a transient ischaemic attack was diagnosed. Further work-up revealed that the patient had left ventricular hypertrophy, but a relatively normal ejection fraction of 71%.
In May 2010, the patient was treated with a course of 18 sessions of electroconvulsive therapy, with little effect. He was finally discharged, after 17 months in hospital, on a combination of carbamazepine, sodium valproate, lithium carbonate and olanzapine. His BP was controlled on a combination of four antihypertensives.
The patient was admitted for the fifth time in August 2011. He failed to respond to the treatment regimen that he had been taking previously when discharged. In November 2011, the patient was commenced on reserpine, considering its known ability to affect mood. Within the first two weeks, the patient's mood began to improve. He was quiet in the ward, slept at night and was much less intrusive. In March 2012, he was transferred to a long-term psychiatric hospital for ongoing supervision and management on a combination of reserpine (1 mg bd), sodium valproate (1 000 mg bd) and olanzapine (20 mg bd). He scored 8 on the YMRS upon discharge, and had no depressive features at the time.
The use of reserpine as an antihypertensive has become unpopular, owing to its side-effect profile, most notably the development of depressive symptoms. However, as this case suggests, it is possible that this side-effect may have something to do with the positive response that we observed when using it for refractory mania.
Reserpine, which has serotonin- and catecholamine-depleting properties, was shown to be effective in the treatment of mania in the early 1960s.[2] It inhibits the uptake of monoamine neurotransmitters into storage granules, resulting in the metabolism of these neuro-transmitters by monoamine oxidase. This depletion results in reserpine's antihypertensive effects and is likely to contribute to its association with depression.[3]
In 1986, Telner et al.[2] described a preliminary investigation of 16 patients, diagnosed with bipolar I disorder and in a current manic phase, who were treated with a mood stabiliser for 1 - 8 days with no resulting change in manic symptoms; 37.5% showed substantial improvement in symptoms with the addition of reserpine, while 43.8% showed moderate improvement within 48 hours of starting reserpine treatment.[2] This suggested that, in conjunction with other psychotropic drugs, reserpine may have beneficial value in the rapid reduction of manic symptoms. A similar study in 1958[4] showed that, in comparison with various other treatment methods, treatment with reserpine shortened the duration of manic episodes.
In our case, Mr X presented with a longstanding history of bipolar I disorder with refractory mania and several physical co-morbidities including hypertension. Upon his most recent admission, the patient had suffered refractory manic symptoms for approximately 18 months, despite treatment with several antipsychotic medications and mood stabilisers at adequate therapeutic doses. It is therefore unlikely that the resolution of symptoms resulted from the natural remitting course of a manic episode; it was only after the addition of reserpine that the manic symptoms improved rapidly. This supports the hypothesis that reserpine, used in conjunction with other psychotropic medication, may be beneficial in treating patients with refractory mania. However, controlled trials are required to support our finding more generally. It should also be determined whether there is an increased risk of a depressive episode associated with such treatment for refractory mania.

The situation regarding the status of Monticello City Manager Trent Schafer remains ongoing following the January 23 meeting of the Monticello City Council.
Mayor Doug Allen started the meeting by informing the public that there would be no discussion during the meeting related to the situation with the City Manager. He said the that the council is working on the issue and hopes to resolve it as soon as possible, but had no indication as to when that would be.
Schafr has been on paid administrative leave since December. The city has four key administrative positions which remain unfilled.
Councilman Walter Bird was sworn in for a second term in office, which will be a four year term. Bird was approved unanimously by the Council as Mayor protempore, meaning he will fill in for Mayor Doug Allen in the event Allen is unable to attend a meeting.
Myron Lee, representing the Utah Department of Transportation, along with Kurt Thornock and Chet Johnson, discussed the Highway 491 road project. Thornock said the remaining portion of the project will run from the intersection of Highway 191 to the Port of Entry. The project will include new curb and gutter, sidewalks, storm drain system under the highway, lighting, and stamped/colored concrete in the park strip area between the curb and gutter and the sidewalk. Thornock said that UDOT plans to start construction of the project in the Spring of 2009.
Public Works Supervisor Nathan Langston presented the Council with current water usage data. The report shows that the city is collecting 260,000 gallons of water per day at this time.
The historic average is 310,000 gallons per day, down about 50,000 gallons a day, which is being attributed to a dry summer and cold winter. In contrast, the use in the city is currently up about 50,000 gallons as well.
Langston reported on work done by the city water department in 2007. He said that the city installed 1,000 feet of water main on 100 East, including two new hydrants and six new valves; 800 feet of water main on 200 South, including a hydrant and three valves; 400 feet of water main on 150 West, repaired a leak in the industrial park well, and flow tested and did general maintenance on all fire hydrants.
Langston told the council that the mountain water project is mostly complete. In 2008, the city plans to work on the Main Street and Center Street infrastructure project. It is out for bid and is scheduled to begin construction in March.
Langston also told the council there is a small leak in the small storage tank which will need to be looked at, and they are considering hiring divers to locate the leak to determine what needs to be done.
The tank is approximately 60 years old. They are also looking at putting in new water lines at several locations around town to stay ahead of scheduled road work.
The sewer department drained and cleaned the sewer lagoons to deal with an algae problem. Langston reports that the maintenance program is working very well, and they have cleaned more than 12,000 linear feet of sewer line and didn't have a sewer claim this year.
In the coming year, the city will work on projects on Uranium Drive, Main and Center streets, better testing equipment for the sewer lagoons, and having another certified operator in house.
The sanitation department purchased a new garbage truck in 2007 which Langston reports is running great. They are currently expanding the poly cart and dumpster inventory and in 2008 will look at the possibility of a recycling program and recycling stations, and for a way to get rid of the oldest garbage truck.
Streets Supervisor Benny Musselman told the council the street sweeper is on it's last leg and is currently burning "more oil than gasoline"., He presented the council with prices on a new street sweeper. A new machine costs approximately $116,000, with a used machine around $90,000. Musselman said he doesn't see the feasibility of purchasing a new machine at this time and feels it would be smarter to contract out the street sweeping, as the monthly cost is just about the same as a payment on a new machine, and there is no maintenance, repairs and employee costs with contracting it out. The issue will be on the next council agenda for a decision.
Stewart Gorie, President of the Monticello Senior Citizens, approached the council regarding an ongoing problem with ice in the parking lot at the Senior Center. Gorie told the council he appreciated the work the City has done to try and deal with the problem, but there seems to be a dispute over whether the problem should be dealt with by the County or City. The council said they will work on solving the problem.
Winn Westcott approached the council about a shelter for the Big 4 tractor. He is concerns that once the tractor is completed, it needs to be put in a shelter out of the weather where people cannot vandalize it, or take parts off of it.
Westcott told the council they are looking into grant money and working with companies who might give the city a donation of part or all of the building as a tax write off.
Westcott said they would like to see it located close to the barn and attached by a walkway so visitors would have to go through the visitors center to access the tractor barn. In the meantime, they would like to put tractors in a fenced-in area this spring to attract visitors.
When the Big 4 is running, it will need to be used, and they would like to have a schedule of times it is run so people can come and see it. Westcott told the council there are several other people with antique and historical items who would be interested in displaying them in the building.
The council approved a service contract, by a 3-2 vote, with Data Information for maintenance of the city website and computer system maintenance. Michael Martin of Data Information, presented the council with a proposal to purchase software that would allow the City to be able to make changes to their own website, as well as allow city employees, volunteers, and committee members put up information about various events. He pointed out that it would take out the element of paying someone to make the changes, and allow the City to take charge of their own site.
Martin, who is also a member of the City Economic Development Committee, said that this one change would meet eight of the goals the committee has set forth. The cost from the company Martin recommended was $6,061. A second bid is over $19,000.
Martin said that this system would be easy to use, and let more people be involved in the process, advertise events, as well as promote and market the City. The Council postponed the decision on the issue until more information can be gathered.
The Council also appointed Cassie Boyle to the Parks and Beautification Committee and approved alcohol licenses for Canyonlands C Store, Woody's, and Peace Tree Juice Café.

When Google started selling the original Nexus 7 tablet last year, the reaction to it was fairly muted. It was a relatively unexciting device. It had no rear camera, the base model had only eight gigabytes of storage and was Wi-Fi only.
Still, as I wrote in August 2012, it was a decent bargain at $199. (The 16-GB version was $249.)
A year later, Google has updated the Nexus 7, and it's a much more compelling tablet. It's much thinner and lighter, has a front and rear cameras and the base model has 16 GB of storage. It's faster, with a better screen, and a version with LTE connectivity will be available soon.
The 16-GB version is even less expensive than the original model with the same amount of storage – $229. There's a 32-GB version that's $269, and once the LTE version is out, it will have 32 GB of storage and sell for $349. With these changes, Google's 7-inch tablet becomes one of the best you can buy.
The Nexus 7, which is made for Google by Asus, has a 7.02-inch display with a full, 1080p resolution of 1,920-by-1,200 pixels. That's 323 pixels per inch, which is better than the full-sized iPad's 264 ppi, and much better than the 7-inch iPad mini, with only 163 ppi. The display is bright and crisp. It's excellent for reading, and HD video on it looks great.
The processor is a quad-core, 1.5-GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro. This isn't the fastest processor around, but it's more than adequate. The Nexus 7 comes with 2 gigabytes of RAM.
Unfortunately, there's no way to expand the memory beyond the 16- or 32-GB built-in storage. This is typical of Google's Nexus products, even though Android fully supports expandable storage. Because of that, I'd recommend most folks buy the 32-GB version. Smartphone and tablet owners typically end up wanting more storage than they have.
The Nexus 7 is remarkably thin and light, with dimensions of about 4.5-by-7.9-by-.34 inches, and weighing just 10.5 ounces. It's not as wide as the original Nexus 7, but a little bit longer. When held horizontally, the left and right bezels are wider, which makes it easier to hold when watching video. Its narrower dimensions make it comfortable to hold vertically when reading.
The Nexus 7 is an all-plastic tablet. While the back of the original was rubberized, the new model's back is plastic matte. It doesn't slip out of your hands, and the plastic actually feels a little more comfortable then the rubber.
This new model now has a 5-megapixel rear camera with auto-focus. It's not a great camera, but it will do for a tablet. The front camera remains at 1.2-MP with fixed focus.
Because it's a new Nexus device, it comes with the latest version of Android – 4.3, a.k.a. Jelly Bean – and updates should come in a timely manner, since they're under Google's own control. This new version brings improved support for multiple user profiles, which makes the Nexus 7 a good tablet for families. (And you'll really want the 32-GB model if you're sharing the Nexus 7 with others.)
Google has been working hard to make Android's performance smooth and fluid. Great strides were made with 4.2, and 4.3 improves on that. There is almost no lag in Android's base functions, and although some reviewers complained about balky scrolling, I didn't experience that.
However, I do have one performance bone to pick with the Nexus 7, but I'm not sure if it's a problem with the touchscreen or Android. Occasionally, the Nexus 7 doesn't respond to swiping motions. For example, it occasionally takes two or three swipes to clear cards away in Google Now, or when swiping through tabs in Chrome. This is an intermittent issue, but very irritating when it occurs.
The Nexus 7 supports advanced Bluetooth 4.0 and 802.11n Wi-Fi, and works on the 5-GHz band for the latter. It also support Miracast for wireless video and audio streaming to a set-top box or TV that also supports the standard.
Battery life is excellent, on a par with the iPad mini and even the full-sized iPad. I am able to go three days with casual use, connected constantly to Wi-Fi, before charging. The new Nexus 7 also support wireless charging, though I wasn't sent one of those chargers to test.
With the new Nexus 7, Google has fixed most of the issues with the first one and improved it to the point that it's a solid contender. For many people, particularly those who already carry Android smartphones, I'd recommend this over an iPad mini.

The charity Save the Children says the majority of victims of rape and other sexual violence in many of the world's conflict zones are children.
Its report is based on data and testimonies from several countries including Colombia, Liberia and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Save the Children says programmes to stop such violence and help children recover are chronically underfunded.
The issue will be discussed by foreign ministers of the G8 group this week.
The UK has said it will give priority to the issue of sexual violence in conflict during its presidency of the G8 this year.
Save the Children's report - Unspeakable Crimes Against Children - says figures from a range of countries affected by conflict over the past decade show that children are often the majority of sexual abuse victims in war and its aftermath.
Life-long scars
A study in Liberia - still recovering from civil war - found that 83% of victims of gender-related violence in 2011-12 were below 17 and almost all of them were raped.
In post-conflict Sierra Leone more than 70% of sexual violence cases seen by the International Rescue Committee were girls under 18, and more than a fifth of those were girls under the age of 11, the report says.
In Democratic Republic of Congo nearly two-thirds of sexual violence cases recorded by the UN in 2008 involved children, mostly adolescent girls.
Girls and boys are being kidnapped and abused by armed forces and groups, the charity says, and children as young as two are caught up in the violence.
It says many children will bear life-long psychological scars.
Save the Children's Chief Executive Justin Forsyth said: "It is shocking that in conflict zones around the world children are being raped and abused at such an appalling rate. Sexual violence is one of the hidden horrors of war and the damage it wreaks ruins lives.
"Even if they recover from the physical effects of their experiences, many victims carry the psychological scars of their ordeal for the rest of their lives, and are often cast out from society. Despite all this, there are huge gaps in funding for the work needed to protect children from these atrocious crimes and to respond to their needs."
The G8 foreign ministers - from the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the US - are meeting in London. They will hold a dinner on Wednesday and formal talks on Thursday.

Axl Rose has stunned Rock & Roll Hall of Fame bosses by officially declining his induction as a member of Guns N' Roses.
The rocker has written to officials at the Ohio museum to announce he will not be attending Saturday's gala.
In a letter, obtained by the Los Angeles Times newspaper on Wednesday, Rose states, "I respectfully decline my induction as a member of Guns N' Roses to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I strongly request that I not be inducted in absentia and please know that no one is authorized nor may anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf.
"Neither former members, label representatives nor the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should imply whether directly, indirectly or by omission that I am included in any purported induction of Guns N' Roses."
But Rose insists he did try to settle differences between himself and his former bandmates, adding, "I certainly don't intend to disappoint anyone, especially the fans, with this decision. Since the announcement of the nomination we've actively sought out a solution to what, with all things considered, appears to be a no win, at least for me, 'damned if I do, damned if I don't' scenario all the way around."
The statement comes after weeks of speculation surrounding a possible band reunion onstage at the induction ceremony.
Fans' hopes of a get together were dashed earlier this month when guitarist Slash told Rolling Stone magazine, "He (Axl) hates my guts. It's over a lot of different stuff; I don't even know. There's just no communication between us."
And in his letter to the Hall of Fame officials, Rose writes, "Time to move on. People get divorced. Life doesn't owe you your own personal happy ending especially at another's, or in this case, several others' expense."
In recent weeks, Slash, bassist Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum and Steven Adler have all indicated that they will be attending the ceremony, where Green Day will honour them.

In this thread on the Weight Watchers board, Goadie Jaxon44 queries "what a good weekly activity points number is to see results."
My response–and this may seem odd for a fitness fanatic like me–was that there isn't one. As I pointed out in the thread, even though I work out a lot–I am in my second week of the Beachbody Insanity program–I have no idea how many AP's I earn, on average, each week. I'd have to go back and look. I'm probably earning more on Insanity than I did on P90X, as this is all high-impact cardio. I do track AP's, but I'm focused on getting my workouts in and on exercising for x minutes in each month, not on earning x number of AP's.
While my fitness and weight loss goals are related, they are, in fact, different. I am hoping that the high-impact aerobics of Insanity aid in my weight loss, but I'm also hoping to strengthen my core, and build speed and cardiovascular endurance.
What are your fitness goals?

She should try an Asian egg-plant - a much more cock-like offering. Then she could follow up by taking my cock in there, offering a bit more girth/stretch, before shoving the Euro aubergine/egg-plant in the vid in, to allow me to get off a second time in a pretty "pervy" way. Not a sequence Mrs C would ever go along with, but she does manage a banana in there from time to time.
WOW!!!!!!! need to try that!!! This looks fucking HOT!

Asphalt Maintenance General Info
Regular asphalt maintenance prolongs the life of your asphalt pavement and protects your initial investment by minimizing the cost of repairs that will ultimately be necessary, one way or another, to preserve the asphalt. Regular maintenance is significantly less expensive in the long term than having to more frequently perform major repairs such as removal and replacement.
Laguna Asphalt Paving Inc. offers our Foothill Ranch customers a full range of quality, affordable maintenance services for commercial and residential asphalt pavements. We also offer maintenance planning that will help you get the most for your money out of your asphalt pavement over its lifespan.
Asphalt deteriorates over time because the asphaltic binder that holds the loose stones of the asphalt together breaks down due to wear and tear and exposure to the elements. This breakdown causes cracks and eventually potholes to form in the asphalt surface. Left untreated, these problems can become much worse, affecting the base and subbase of the asphalt and weakening the entire pavement structure. Once these serious problems occur, the lighter maintenance procedures are no longer an option. Total removal and replacement eventually becomes necessary.
The more basic asphalt maintenance and repair procedures, such as sealcoating, crack sealing and patch repair, take care of the initial problems before they get worse and more expensive. Even when resurfacing or removal and replacement become necessary, Laguna Asphalt Paving Inc. offers the best value in Foothill Ranch. And our maintenance planning will help you protect your investment going forward. At Laguna Asphalt Paving Inc., we provide all of our Foothill Ranch customers with excellent maintenance services at reasonable prices.
Asphalt Patch Repair Foothill Ranch, CA
Asphalt patch repair is a common maintenance procedure that is usually used to fix potholes. The area around the pothole is cut out and removed and new asphalt is poured in, patching the hole. Sometimes the base beneath the asphalt is also damaged and needs to be replaced. For more detailed information, see our general page on Asphalt Patch Repair.
Asphalt Crack Sealing in Foothill Ranch, CA
Crack sealing keeps small cracks that inevitably form in the asphalt surface from becoming bigger, more expensive problems. Left untreated, small cracks will eventually spread and deepen, allowing water to infiltrate the base and subbase of the asphalt, structurally weakening it. Once this happens, more involved, expensive repairs than crack sealing become necessary. Crack sealing can extend the life of an asphalt pavement by 3 to 5 years.
There are seven different types of cracks that affect asphalt surfaces. Some of them can be repaired with crack sealing, while some of them are more serious and cannot:Block Cracks
Block cracks form a rough pattern of blocks on the asphalt surface. These cracks can be repaired with crack sealing.Longitudinal or Joint Cracks
Longitudinal or joint cracks run roughly parallel to the edge of the pavement and often occur at the joints between two slabs of pavement. These cracks can be repaired with crack sealing.Transverse Cracks
Transverse cracks form roughly perpendicular lines to the edge of a pavement. They can be repaired with crack sealing.Edge Cracks
These cracks are found near the edge of a paved road that has an unpaved shoulder. The cracks are roughly parallel to the pavement edge, or they form crescent shapes. Longitudinal cracks are considered to be edge cracks when they occur outside the wheel path and within 2 feet of the pavement edge. These cracks cannot always be repaired with crack sealing.Reflective Cracks
Reflective cracks can look like any of the other types. They often occur in resurfaced or overlay asphalt, when cracks in the old, under layer of asphalt cause new cracks to form upward in the overlay asphalt. They can also occur in new pavements, when cracks in the base beneath the asphalt reflect upward in the same way. Reflective crack repairs depend on the original cause of stress on the pavement.Fatigue or Alligator Cracks
Fatigue cracks are also called alligator cracks because the intersecting lines form a series of small blocks in the asphalt surface that resemble an alligator's skin. Fatigue cracks can lead to potholes and pavement disintegration, and they may require asphalt removal and replacement to effectively repair them. They cannot be repaired with crack sealing.Slippage Cracks
Slippage cracks are crescent shaped cracks that occur when the top layer of asphalt shears from the lower layer of asphalt. These cannot be repaired with crack sealing. For more detailed information, see our general page on Asphalt Crack Sealing.
Asphalt Sealcoating in Foothill Ranch, CA
A sealcoat is a protective layer applied to a non-highway asphalt surface to shield it from damaging elements. Sealcoating, along with crack sealing, can double the lifespan of your asphalt pavement. It also has many other benefits, including preventing surface erosion, improving pavement flexibility, sealing small cracks, waterproofing the pavement and making the surface easier to clean. The smooth dark surface of a sealcoated asphalt pavement also looks better and keeps the asphalt looking new long after the sealcoat is applied. Finally, the sealcoat creates a greater contrast with striping, making it easier to see pavement markings for a longer period of time.
Sealcoating should be done 6 to 12 months after paving, and every 3 to 4 years after that (as needed.) Any cracks or potholes in the asphalt must be repaired before a sealcoat can be applied, and oil spots need to be primed for the sealcoat if they cannot be completely removed. A sealcoat takes 18 to 36 hours to dry enough for vehicles to drive over it, and 48 hours to safely withstand water. For more detailed information, see our general page on Asphalt Sealcoating.
Asphalt Resurfacing or Overlay in Foothill Ranch, CA
Asphalt resurfacing or overlay is a maintenance procedure in which new asphalt is paved over old, damaged asphalt. First, the old, damaged asphalt is patch repaired so that there is a smooth surface over which to pour the new asphalt. Then the new asphalt can be laid on top of the old pavement.
There are several signs that will let you know it is time to resurface your asphalt pavement, including wheel depressions or ruts that retain water after rains, pock marks or pitting in the asphalt that creates a jagged appearance, large or multiple sections of fatigue or alligator cracking, and multiple former patch repairs.
Resurfacing can include the use of Petromat overlay, leveling binder, and butt joint or grinding. Petromat is a geotextile fabric that is laid over the old layer of asphalt before the new asphalt is poured. It helps bond the two layers and provides structural support. It also absorbs stress from the surface layer, prevents reflective cracking, and keeps the damaging elements to which the top layer is exposed from reaching the bottom layer, which could otherwise result in the need for removal and replacement of both layers. Leveling adjusts a worn slope or gradient to restore its proper degree or angle. Butt joint or grinding joins the new asphalt pavement with an existing adjacent surface and levels the two. For more detailed information, see our general page on Asphalt Resurfacing or Overlay.
Asphalt Removal and Replacement in Foothill Ranch, CA
Asphalt removal and replacement is the process of removing part or all of an old, damaged asphalt pavement and laying new asphalt in its place. This procedure is necessary in cases of significant structural damage to an asphalt pavement. This kind of structural damage can occur when cracks in the asphalt surface deepen far enough to allow water from the surface to infiltrate and form holes in the substrate.
One of our trained professionals will assess the condition of your asphalt and evaluate whether the entire pavement must be removed and replaced, or whether parts of the pavement are structurally sound enough to stay in place and only partial removal and replacement is needed. The subbase of the pavement will also need to be evaluated, because any problems there will need to be corrected before replacement can begin.
Once we replace your old asphalt pavement, you will have a brand new one that, with proper maintenance, will last a long time. For more detailed information, see our general page on Asphalt Removal and Replacement.
Asphalt Striping or Pavement Marking in Foothill Ranch, CA
Laguna Asphalt Paving Inc. offers striping and restriping services for any asphalt surface. We also offer striping planning and design services. We always use the highest quality materials and the most advanced equipment to stripe or restripe your parking lot or other asphalt pavement. And our experienced, professional stripers get your job done right, within budget and on time, every time.
Precisely planned, quality striping makes your asphalt pavement look better, which helps improve the overall image of your business or facility. In addition to giving customers and visitors a great first impression, good striping also helps maintain vehicle and pedestrian safety on roads and in parking lots. Striping planning and design will help you fulfill legal requirements for handicapped parking spaces, fire lanes, etc., maximize the number of parking spaces in your lot, designate special spaces and customize markings.
Striping can begin roughly 3 hours after a newly applied sealcoat is dry to the touch. The paint can take from 30 minutes to 3 hours to dry completely. Once the paint is dry, vehicles can drive on it. Restriping should be done once every 2 years, as needed. For more detailed information, see our general page on Asphalt Striping or Pavement Marking.

You're not going to get me to complain about the Astros raising ticket prices.
Hey, I pay for tickets sometimes too. My 93-year-old grandmother can go to a game on me whenever she asks. Mama Mary used to take me to see those sorry rascals when I was little, so the least I can do is take her to see those sorry rascals now.
Complain about grocery stores charging too much for milk, schools raising tuition and even gas prices. Things we need and shouldn't have to live without.
But the Astros?
If the ticket prices are too high, don't pay them.
One question, though. Why didn't they announce the price hike when nobody was paying attention? Like one of those Mondays after the Texans went down in flames.
Isn't announcing them the day before spring training begins sort of like breaking up with somebody the day before Valentine's Day?
Sexual assault is not funny. Ever.
But a waitress telling Albert Haynesworth he can put his credit card between her breasts because her hands were full, then filing a police report four hours later because his "heavy/fat/stocky" hand caressed her breast, makes me sort of chuckle.
Now, I am not a breast man, but why a grown man would think he could grab a woman's breasts just because she told him he could place an object there is beyond me. What an idiot. Didn't we all learn as teenagers that you are only permitted to "accidentally" graze a breast in said situation?
Maybe Haynesworth's heavy/fat/stocky fingers actually only grazed a breast, but the woman thought she felt a little more. Then again, maybe Haynesworth's heavy/fat/stocky wallet led to the waitress thinking he did a little more than graze.

Fernandez-Valdes wins by 1 in Mexico
Yucatan, Mexico – Jorge Fernandez-Valdes stumbled to a 1-over 73 on Sunday, but it was enough for him to win the Mundo Maya Open.
Fernandez-Valdes, who became the youngest-ever winner on the PGA Tour Latinoamerica, finished at 11-under-par 277 at Yucatan Country Club.
Armando Villarreal posted a 1-under 71 to take second place at minus-10. Manuel Villegas (72), Gunner Wiebe (68) and Jose de Jesus Rodriguez (70) shared third place at 9-under 279.
The 20-year-old Fernandez-Valdes had two birdies and a bogey on the front nine. He moved to 14-under with a birdie at the par-5 11th. He stumbled to three bogeys over the final seven holes to slide back to minus-11.
Villarreal was even-par for the day and 8-under for the tournament after 12 holes. He converted back-to-back birdie tries at 16 and 17 to get within one.

An amulet, from amuletum, meaning " an object-that protects a person from trouble" or Talisman, from Arabic Tilasm, or from the Greek word "Talsin" which means "to initiate into the mysteries", and consists of any object intended to bring good luck and protection to its owner. Two of the most popular amulets for protection and success are the Horseshoe and Hamsa Hand. Amulets vary considerably according to their time and place of origin, religious objects commonly serve as amulets in different societies, be it the figure of God or simply some symbol representing the deity (such as the cross for Christians, or the "eye of hours" for the ancient Egyptians).
