You don't have to be a professional athlete or a weekend warrior to experience back pain. It can happen when you're washing the car, shopping for groceries, and during lots of other daily activities.
If you've experienced back pain, you're not alone: millions of Americans suffer from it. In fact, lower back pain alone causes more disabilities than any other health condition.
The good news is, nearly all back pain can be improved with proper treatment.
Here are some tips for dealing with back pain:
- Talk with your doctor or physical therapist.
- Avoid painful activities like bending, lifting and twisting.
- Don't stop moving altogether. Keep walking and performing other activities that don't make the pain worse.
- Apply ice or heat to relieve pain.
- Take over-the-counter medication if recommended by your doctor.
- Stretching can also help alleviate back pain.
- A cautious approach is usually best. Don't try to rush back and risk injuring yourself further.

There wasn’t segregation by subgenre yet. “There wasn’t a separation back then. Slayer would play with Ruthless or Bitch or glam bands. Stryper played with Metallica at early shows. It wasn’t that strange to have Armored Saint with Steeler and Slayer. W.A.S.P. and Slayer played together a lot.” A lot of it would be miss-matched for today’s standards but it was all metal back then.
On bands they tried to get but couldn’t, “It would’ve been great to get Motley Crue. We reached out to their management but they said the band was too busy doing their final tour and couldn’t connect. We met Michael Anthony at a club in Orange Country [for the Pioneers DVD) who told some great stories. They were the band that broke out in that era.” He thought the concept was great and they talked to his manager and wife but they didn’t want him talking about Van Halen because it was around the time of the split. They tried but couldn’t get him to go on camera.
Another band they wanted was The Runaways. They were the big female band of the day, involved in the L.A. club scene and the first all-female hard rock band that broke nationally. “We had a small budget. We couldn’t fly out for an interview. We had to wait until the artist was in L.A.” Apart from them, they got pretty much who they wanted.
Pioneers was intended to be one DVD but there were so many interviews. Even if they made it a two hour movie, some of the story would be lost. So they made it a two DVD set, making sure the complete story was captured.
The Whisky’s kind of stayed the same over the years. The first shows Nalbandian saw were Metallica in the early days with Armored Saint in ’82.
The upcoming Rise of the L.A. Thrash Scene will feature members of Suicidal Tendencies, Agent Steel, Body Count, Steel Prophet, Cryptic Slaughter, Katon from Hirax and Eric and Gene from Dark Angel. Nalbandian also has a Bay Area documentary in the works.

Bring Travi$ Scott's rodeo to the farm for 2016!!!

Ok so, last year's roo was by far my favorite yet. However, my only complaint was that I did feel a bit of an absence in the hip hop department. Don't get me wrong, seeing Kendrick return and kill it was stellar and in no way am I discrediting gangsta gibbs, RTJ, Childish, Atmosphere, etc. However, thinking back on sets like Wu-Tang in 2013 or A$AP Ferg's off the wall Sunday set in 2014 I felt like in 2015 we were lacking a bit of the intensity that Bonnaroo usually provides in its impressive hip hop roster. For this reason, I feel as though Travi$ Scott would be the perfect antidote to this. Check out videos/news of his recent Rodeo tour, the shows have gained notoriety as electrifying and near-riots (its not called "the rodeo" for no reason). The man has proven himself to be a master of stagecraft and would make for a crazy set.  

Thank you all for reading my spiel and can't wait to see everyone in paradise again!! 

TL;DR: last years hip hop lineup was impressive, just not as lit as years before, Travi$ Scott's set would be a surefire banger if we could get him.Decomposition of sources of errors in seasonal streamflow forecasting over the U.S. Sunbelt

Seasonal streamflow forecasts, contingent on climate information, can be utilized to ensure water supply for multiple uses including municipal demands, hydroelectric power generation, and for planning agricultural operations. However, uncertainties in the streamflow forecasts pose significant challenges in their utilization in real‐time operations. In this study, we systematically decompose various sources of errors in developing seasonal streamflow forecasts from two Land Surface Models (LSMs) (Noah3.2 and CLM2), which are forced with downscaled and disaggregated climate forecasts. In particular, the study quantifies the relative contributions of the sources of errors from LSMs, climate forecasts, and downscaling/disaggregation techniques in developing seasonal streamflow forecast. For this purpose, three month ahead seasonal precipitation forecasts from the ECHAM4.5 general circulation model (GCM) were statistically downscaled from 2.8° to 1/8° spatial resolution using principal component regression (PCR) and then temporally disaggregated from monthly to daily time step using kernel‐nearest neighbor (K‐NN) approach. For other climatic forcings, excluding precipitation, we considered the North American Land Data Assimilation System version 2 (NLDAS‐2) hourly climatology over the years 1979 to 2010. Then the selected LSMs were forced with precipitation forecasts and NLDAS‐2 hourly climatology to develop retrospective seasonal streamflow forecasts over a period of 20 years (1991–2010). Finally, the performance of LSMs in forecasting streamflow under different schemes was analyzed to quantify the relative contribution of various sources of errors in developing seasonal streamflow forecast. Our results indicate that the most dominant source of errors during winter and fall seasons is the errors due to ECHAM4.5 precipitation forecasts, while temporal disaggregation scheme contributes to maximum errors during summer season.My daughter and I sound amazingly alike. So we are told, even by members of our family. If the message on your answering machine is dithery, vague as to the time and the purpose of the call, it's the mother. If businesslike yet gracious, that's my girl. My girl who operates an art gallery, who manages her household (with the aid of that new breed, the helpful husband) and her daughter, Kate, who is 3. You'd think I might pick up her efficiency and grace in dealing with the world, but I'm a slow learner. Like many women with accomplished daughters, I'm amazed at the acrobatic skill of Loretta's balancing act with household and career. In the complex world of money and art, she holds the value of art and of family always in mind.
"You don't need to go to that conference," she says. "Stay with your work." Loretta Howard is talking straight, not speaking business-school lingo to her mother, who can't abide words like prioritize. It's not a simple reversal of roles—advice to the mother who once harangued the child to get off the phone, finish the homework. My daughter is telling me—what I should know after all these years—to give myself to the difficult book I'm writing. She's sorting out what is important from what is unnecessary and, I suspect, reminding me that I'm still somewhat uncertain about my worth, apologetic about the writing of novels, mere stories that have consumed me. It's a matter of public record, my coming-of-age when women, too many of us, had to school ourselves to believe in our working lives.
But my personal history, so entwined with my daughter's, cautions me to be silent as she deals with Kate, who has decided against breakfast. Loretta's clever game that gets the cereal down reflects the same competence I see in her professional life, with the added sweetening of love and correction. We are privileged to live across the street from each other, which makes New York something of a village for us. Almost daily I observe Loretta's enlightened care of Kate. I remember mothering with a well-worn copy of Dr. Spock and an unreliable mix of hearsay and old wives' tales. Many of my friends claim we had it easier. Perhaps, but I'm learning what many women who never had the comfort of staying home have always known—that easier may not be better, that taking your place in the world may nourish the folks at home, as potable as mother's milk.
"Have a great time," my daughter says. The sky overcast, gloomy, I'm heading out for the weekend, my
