Three Queens elected officials are looking to replace Congressman Gary Ackerman, who announced last week he will not seek re-election. Running in the June 26 primary will be the Queens Democratic Party’s choice, Assemblywoman Grace Meng of Flushing. She will be challenged by Assemblyman Rory Lancman of Fresh Meadows and Councilwoman Elizabeth Crowley of Middle Village. Meng, 36, a lawyer, was selected Monday by the county party, headed by Congressman Joe Crowley. Later that day, his cousin, Elizabeth Crowley, 34, declared her candidacy via her press spokesman, Eric Yun: “Born and raised in Queens, Elizabeth Crowley is running for Congress as an independent advocate for our neighborhoods and our communities. She has been a staunch advocate for women and children, for working families and for our seniors. While the county organization as a whole may not want to endorse a family member of its chairman, Elizabeth Crowley’s campaign will demonstrate that she is the best candidate to represent all of the communities in the new congressional district.” Meng, who has been in the Assembly since 2008, thanked the party for selecting her, adding: “Our campaign for Congress to continue Gary Ackerman’s legacy will be run the same way we tackle these problems, how leaders like Congressman Crowley tackle problems — together.” She said her campaign “will resist any efforts to divide our communities. We will not tolerate any attempt, overt or coded, to play one community off another.” In a later interview with the Chronicle, Meng said if elected, she will be proud to be the first Asian American in Congress from New York. “I believe in building bridges between different communities,” Meng said, “and we need more women in Congress.” Regarding her primary opponents, Meng said she respects both of them a lot and that they are good friends. “I am focusing on my stronger position and reaching out to all the communities,” she said. Meng wants to take care of the concerns of her constituents. “‘Everyone wants a good quality of life,” she said. “I hope to bring home federal resources to help people who are struggling.” Meanwhile, Lancman met with supporters at Plaut Park in Flushing on Monday afternoon, where he stressed the importance of building a strong economy. “New Yorkers are tired of an economic deck that is stacked against them and tired of a Congress that isn’t doing anything about it,” he said. “I’m running for Congress because middle-class and working people in Queens need someone who will fight for them.” He noted that a child born today to middle-class parents is more likely to move down the economic ladder as an adult: “That’s not the America I grew up in and that’s not the America we want our kids to grow up in.” Like Meng, Lancman is an attorney. He has served as an assemblyman since 2006. Crowley, 34, was elected to the City Council in 2008. She previously worked for the Consortium for Worker Education, an arm of the NYC Central Labor Council. During a telephone interview on Tuesday, Crowley said she is moving ahead to get petitions signed to be put on the primary ballot. “They are due in three weeks and we need 900-plus names, but I’ll have 10 times as many as I need. I’m used to that,” she said. “The same goes for fundraising; I have plenty of experience.” The councilwoman says she represents more constituents in the congressional district than her rivals, and that people know her. “They know I work hard,” she added. Crowley’s main issues are the same ones she is fighting for locally: education, safety, healthcare and jobs. “I’ve been a union member my entire working career and it’s so important that Congress understands about jobs and working with small businesses,” she added. As to the lack of support from her cousin, Crowley said she can handle it. “I respect Joe and it’s mutual,” she said. “I’m independent and I’m running for it. If someone wants to run, they should have the right.” The newly drawn 6th District extends from Flushing, Fresh Meadows and Bayside to Maspeth, Middle Village and Glendale. The district is 37 percent Asian and there is a large Jewish population as well. Meng is seen to have an edge in fundraising as well as the party’s support, while Lancman has the Jewish vote. The two candidates come from adjoining geographic areas, while Crowley represents a somewhat different location. The Queens Republican Party has not endorsed a candidate yet, but Councilman Dan Halloran of Whitestone and attorney Juan Reyes of Forest Hills have indicated interest.

AUSTRALIAN supermarket giant Woolworths will test an imported product for traces of horse meat for "customer peace of mind" following what the company has described as "sensationalised media reports" on a frozen food scandal in the UK. Frozen lasagnes and burger patties sold in UK supermarkets were found to contain horse meat when tests were carried out earlier this month. The products were imported from Germany and Switzerland and have since been removed from UK shelves. A Woolworths spokesperson said on Thursday the company sourced 100% of its fresh meat from Australian producers. The spokesman said the Own Brand ready meals at the centre of the UK controversy were not imported to Australia. One product, sourced from New Zealand, will be tested but the spokesperson said they had confidence in the supply chain and the process was simply for customer peace of mind. "We have a robust traceability process in place and we have no reason to suspect there are any issues with Woolworths Own Brand products," the spokesperson said "Any meat used in Woolworths Own Brand products is subject to strict certification, government verification and issuing of permits to allow importation from approved countries only." Aldi chains in Europe were forced to recall lasagne but the company's Australian spokesperson told News Ltd the lasagne sold in its stores contained Australian beef only and was different to the product sold in the UK. The Department of Agriculture has confirmed no permits have been issued to importers for goods implicated in the horse meat scandal.

Ending sexism in sport means including men's synchronised swimming in the Olympic Games Posted on August 7, 2012 by Louise Restell Last night I went to watch Japan beat France in the women’s football Olympic semi final at Wembley. Like quite a few people, including, I imagine, some of the other spectators, I have never watched a women’s football match in my life, which is a travesty because it was at least as exciting and far less aggressive than the overpaid and overindulged men’s version. This is what is great about the Olympics. While I’d hesitate to describe women’s football as a minority sport, the games do showcase sports we rarely get to see and, unlike the rest of the time, the men’s and women’s versions mostly get equal billing. It’s been a long time coming: London 2012 is, in fact, the first time women will compete in all 26 sports, although there are still 30 fewer events for women than men. If women are at last finding themselves on something approaching equal footing with men during the games, they are still facing unfair treatment. There was an outcry when Japan’s world-beating women’s football team flew to London in premium economy while the lower-ranked men’s team were treated to business class. And Australian basketball bosses ordered a review of travel arrangements after it was revealed their men’s team enjoyed a luxurious business class flight while the women had to slum it in cattle class. It is tempting to suggest that many of our female athletes have achieved in London despite ongoing sexism in sport, not because it is no longer there. Olympic cyclist Lizzie Armitstead, who won Britain’s first 2012 medal in the women’s road race, bravely spoke out about how the sexism she encountered could get ‘quite overwhelming and very frustrating’. Last year, Baroness Grey-Thompson published a report that highlighted the ‘chronic lack of investment’ in women’s sport in the UK from sponsors and broadcasters. Despite an increasing public appetite for it, women’s elite sport attracts just 0.5% of all commercial sponsorship with 61.1% going to men’s sport and the remainder to mixed sports. This is not surprising when women’s sport only attracts a 2% share of mainstream media coverage. The lack of media coverage and sponsorhip go hand in hand and have a serious impact on women’s sport. Another British cyclist, Emma Pooley, said in the Guardian ‘Women’s cycling really does have a problem…it’s just the races aren’t televised for the most part so for sponsors it’s like night and day compared with men’s cycling…[In] a lot of women’s teams you’re lucky if they buy you a sandwich at the race…sponsors keep pulling out of races so they get cancelled…the calendar has been more than decimated’. Depressingly, last year the organisers of Wimbledon admitted that ‘good looks are a factor’ in deciding who gets to play on which court and Boris Johnson recently rhapsodised in the Daily Telegraph about ‘semi-naked women playing beach volleyball in the middle of the Horse Guards Parade…glistening like wet otters’. Yes, I could easily find examples of women drooling over the guns of male athletes, particularly those competing in the aquatic centre, but, on the whole, if men do have to deal with this sort of objectification they don’t have to deal with the chronic funding, lack of profile and snide comments about their sport being lacking in quality, athleticism or excitement. Amazingly, London 2012 is the first time in the history of the Games there will be a female entrant from every competing nation. Saudi Arabia finally lifted a ban on women competing at the Games and sent two female athletes and women from Qatar and Brunei are also attending for the first time. While many regard this as a step forward for gender equality in global sport, many others believe the International Olympic Committee (IOC) should take a stronger line against countries that systematically discriminate against women and ethnic, religious and sexual minorities. If some countries ban women from competing at all, in others gay athletes have to hide their sexuality otherwise they risk not being selected for the Olympic squad or worse face harassment or even imprisonment. It does seem contradictory that South Africa was banned from the games for nearly 30 years for refusing to denounce apartheid and yet Saudi Arabia has not faced a similar sanction, even though physical education is banned for girls because, apparently, it will lead to corrupt morals and lesbianism and is damaging for female health and psyche. Arguably, a ban would not have had the same impact on Saudi Arabia as it did on sports-mad South Africa (although the end of apartheid didn’t exactly happen soon after). The Olympics don't usually get much attention from most Saudis and the only sport they are passionate about is football, so it might be more effective to persuade the world football governing body to ban them (if you know anything about FIFA you will know this is my attempt at a joke). None of this is intended to take away from the utter utter gloriousness of the games in London. But if the IOC want to make Rio in 2016 even more glorious they should accede to at least one request. There is a growing lobby calling for an end to discrimination against men in the Olympics, which bans them from competing in synchronised swimming and rhythmic gymnastics. This may not be the greatest gender equality issue of our time, but if you don’t think sport should get involved in politics and believe banning oppressive regimes from the games achieves little and could even be counter-productive, surely here is a cause you can get behind. Bring men dancing in the water or prancing about in leotards to the Olympics! I, for one, would be glued to the screen. Maybe then the IOC will be a step closer to living up to the high ideals it sets itself.

Lawyers for the former Liberian President Charles Taylor have asked to re-open the defence case at his war crimes trial. Mr Taylor’s lawyer Courtenay Griffiths told the BBC that a recent UN report into mercenary groups “creates major difficulties for the prosecution”. The trial at the Hague ended in March 2011, but the judges have yet to deliver their verdict. Mr Taylor is accused of 11 charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. His trial, at the United Nations-backed Special Court for Sierra Leone, relates to his alleged role in the brutal civil war in Liberia’s neighbour, where he is accused of backing rebels responsible for widespread atrocities In an interview with Focus on Africa on the BBC World Service, Mr Griffiths said that the UN Security Council report “illustrates the central defence,” which is that there were many Liberians fighting on both sides for personal gain in the war and they were not under Mr Taylor’s control. Mr Griffiths said the report presented a picture of “fluid groups of unemployed former combatants” who were roaming across the area causing problems – without there being a guiding hand such as Mr Taylor behind them. Mr Taylor’s legal team have asked the court for permission to introduce pages from the report as evidence for his defence. Courtenay Griffiths denied that Mr Taylor’s legal team were stalling in an effort to delay a verdict – and said that it was important for justice that all related evidence was before the court. There has been no response from the court. Charles Taylor denies the charges against him. Copied from the BBC

While the post of borough president doesn’t have much responsibility when it comes to legislation, they can act as a powerful voice in advocating for the borough, and they do get millions of dollars each year to dole out, which is can be a pretty nice perk and win them lots and lots of friends and admirers. (As well as allow them to tackle some of their pet projects without having to worry about too much oversight.) Turning out attention to Queens, it was already a crowded race with some high-profile names. Councilman Leroy Comrie, former Councilwoman Melinda Katz, and State Senator Jose Peralta have all publicly stated their interest in the post. And former Assemblywoman Audrey Pheffer, who was recently appointed Queens County Clerk, has already filed her candidacy with the Campaign finance Board. Likewise, so has Deputy Borough President Barry Grodenchik, himself a former assemblyman and current employee of Queens Borough Hall. And Councilman Peter Vallone, Jr., who has raised millions in campaign funds, has hinted strongly that he might spend some of that money to make himself the next borough president of Queens. Now add another name to that growing list. State Senator Tony Avella has announced that he, too, will mount a bid for the post. It may seem like a long shot with so many other names in the race and the fact that Avella often finds himself at odds with the Queens County Democratic Party, which will be heavily influencing this race, but remember that Avella also ran a citywide race for mayor in 2009, which many would undoubtedly consider an even crazier endeavor. So don’t expect Avella to suddenly bow out of this race if he has already made up his mind to run. What makes this race interesting is that each candidate has a strong base of support, but each in a different part of the borough. Having represented south Queens for years, Pheffer is well known in neighborhoods like Howard Beach and the Rockaways. And Peralta gets a lot of support from the Hispanic community and in neighborhoods like Corona and Jackson Heights. Meanwhile, Comrie has southeast Queens wrapped up, and Avella is viewed as a strong voice in northeast Queens and enjoys a favorable reputation as a political maverick in neighborhoods like Bayside and North Flushing. And Vallone is an institution in Astoria and western Queens, while Katz is a familiar face and will no doubt have neighborhoods like Forest Hills and Rego Park sewn up. We guess the strategy in this race becomes, what candidate can siphon off enough votes from their opponents’ established bases? With so many seasoned political figures throwing their hat in the ring, this should be an exciting race to watch…we can’t wait for the debates. We’re just not sure if the Board of Elections can handle getting all of those names on the ballot for the Democratic Primary!

Gunning For Schneiderman Pity poor first-term legislator Eric Schneiderman. Hes in the cross hairs of the NRA. The upper West Side Dem has pissed off the powerful gun lobby because he pushed Governor Pataki to veto legislation that would have allowed the NRAs gun safety mascot, Eddie Eagle, to be used to teach in all State elementary schools. Some have called NRAs Eddie "Joe Camel with feathers," because he is used as an innocuous symbol by the gun lobby to teach safety to children. Found your dads .44 in the attic? In NRA literature, Eddie Eagle swoops in to show you how to fasten the safety latch and put that dangerous piece away. Sounds innocent enough. But its not, says Schneiderman. "The NRA should not be allowed to use our schools as recruiting grounds for the next generation of gun users," Schneiderman said. Pataki agreed and now SCOPE (Shooters Committee on Political Education), a pro-gun website, has targeted Schneiderman. Rumor has it that the NRA is willing to pour thousands of dollars into a campaign against the liberal State Senator to see that he remains a one-termer. Hillary & Nita Some people are wondering where Nita Lowey is, the first on her block as a Senatorial candidate and the first to drop out? Well, we hear that the relationship between Hillary and Nita is anything but warm these days in spite of the fact that Howard Wolfson, Loweys former chief of staff , is running the Clinton Senatorial media train. It seems that the White House is a little miffed at Lowey because she dropped out of the race too early (last May). It was the grand design that Lowey would occupy the Senate slot through the fall of 1999, thus giving Clinton a free hand to adjust to New York politics and get comfortable with the issues and interest groups that have descended upon her. Her pronounced "listening tours" were to be just that. But with Lowey as the front, the pressure to know it all would have been lessened and the start up of her eventual campaign would not have stumbled as often as it did. So, when was the last time you saw Congresswoman Lowey escorting candidate Hillary around the State? Hillary Clinton maybe unfamiliar with more than New York geography. Her campaign has trouble with the political landscape, too, according to City Councilman Jim Oddo. The conservative Republican councilman was surprised and amused to find an unsolicited email from Clinton in his official Council internet inbox last week. "I want you to be my voice in your local community," Clinton wrote. The internet is a wonderful thing, Oddo replied. "Everything one could possibly need is at his or her fingertips, including maps," he wrote. "So if you get lost driving in Delaware County, you can simply log on." The mailbox is one Oddo uses to keep in close contact with his constituents, said his spokeswoman, Elizabeth Harris. They have no idea how Clinton got the address or why she decided to spam Oddo. What length would Chuck go to elude Hillary if Chuck could? Seems like a lot, say political insiders, who tell us that the Freshman Senator dissed the First Ladys people late last week when they reached out to him to be her escort when she visited Al Sharptons House of Justice in Harlem on Martin Luther King Day. Is it simply that the top dog Democrat is ticked off at Hillarys tepid Senatorial campaign so far? No, says one member of New Yorks Democratic delegation its Schumers professional jealousy boiling over. "He just doesnt want to be the junior guy," he said. "Hes the young stud on the block. Its his first year in office and he cant get his name in the papers with all the Hillary & Rudy stuff going on." Schumer did go to Sharpton headquarters on Monday but he purposely avoided attending with his potential future colleague. So, who was the First Ladys fallback date? Good ol Ed Koch. You wont find the latest popular work of modern art at an uptown museum or a downtown loft; instead, you have to go to a warehouse in Brooklyn. That is where the scaffolding surrounding the Washington Monument for a recent renovation will be stored until a permanent location can be found for it. Retail giant Target Stores is reportedly seeking to purchase the 575-foot high scaffolding for $1 million, and place it in a park in downtown Minneapolis. The scaffolding, which was designed by architect Michael Graves, is made of aluminum pipes and covered by nylon fabric. It was put up in 1998 so that the 111-year-old obelisk could be cleaned and repaired. Target was the main corporate sponsor of the $6.5 million restoration project. Whispered in rooms that used to be smoke-filled: Alan Hevesi facing an incumbent Mark Green, decides to sit it out and run for State Comptroller. He is currently in third place in the polls with the fourth place Bronx Beep closing in. Green and Peter Vallone are more than 15 points ahead of him. Hevesi never runs if it is risky, said one political consultant. Remember the last mayoral election, his camp was saying theyre running for Mayor. Then hes not. The same pattern is predicted by our pundit who has requested anonymity. |E-mail the trib|

Television Programming Is Promoting Promiscuity Bozell, L. Brent,, III, Insight on the News NBC's Dateline program has a reputation, and deservedly so, for preferring fluff to substance. On Jan. 2, however, the popular TV newsmagazine made amends for its obsession with the likes of Jon-Benet Ramsey by airing a segment concerning contemporary teen-agers' sexual attitudes and behavior. Just as you pray most children aren't watching what's on television generally, this was one of those rare times you wish all their parents were tuned in. The report was especially compelling because of its exploration of the entertainment media's effect on how teens view sex. It began by contrasting old-fashioned portrayals (from the 1950s, I'm guessing) of dating and courtship with brief clips from the megaraunchy 1999 movie American Pie, in the last of which a … Questia, a part of Gale, Cengage Learning. www.questia.com Publication information: Article title: Television Programming Is Promoting Promiscuity.

Taking the Protection-Access Tradeoff Seriously Perlman, Harvey S., Vanderbilt Law Review Law and economics scholarship has contributed much to our understanding of both the nature of intellectual property rights generally and the features of individual intellectual property regimes. Indeed it is hard to imagine a field other than antitrust law that is so explicitly governed by economic thinking. In authorizing the copyright and patent systems, Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution expressly incorporates a social welfare imperative as the basis for its grant of power.1 Certainly economists and economically oriented legal academics have given the field the attention it is due.

The FIA is considering banning the use of DRS in the tunnel at this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix on the back of continued safety complaints from drivers. A majority of drivers have expressed reservations about the possible dangers they could face in Monaco by having to use the DRS, especially through the tricky right-hander in the tunnel. Although the FIA saw no grounds to ban DRS entirely,with the overtaking zone to be laid down on the start-finish straight, some consideration is now being given to the tunnel situation for practice and qualifying, when DRS can normally be used without restriction. Drivers have continued to voice their fears about the situation, and Formula 1 race director Charlie Whiting is giving serious thought to imposing a ban on using DRS through the tunnel. A decision on the matter will be made in the next 24 hours, so teams and drivers are well aware of the situation before first practice in Monaco begins on Thursday. Whiting said the FIA believed there were no safety problems with having DRS available in Monaco. "I've spoken to the drivers a few times about it and it was quite clear that the majority of them did not want to use it in Monaco," he explained. "However, there is no evidence to support the theory that it is unsafe in Monaco. "Obviously, we are not waiting for an accident to happen, but there is simply no evidence to support the theory that it is going to be dangerous. So as it has been introduced as an overtaking aid, it would be somewhat perverse not to allow it in the place where you need overtaking the most. So there is no reason not to use it in Monaco as far as we can see. That is the long and the short of it. As far as we are concerned it's a device that's open to anyone to use legally at any race. That is what it is there for." When asked if the FIA could change its mind over that decision if there were accidents or complaints, Whiting said: "Yes, we can. If we think there is a problem, then we can stop its use. If there was something that we felt was wrong and dangerous, then we would stop it. But we can do that with any part of the car, so it's not unusual." One of the biggest issues that the drivers are unhappy about with the DRS through the tunnel is that the wing setting is either fully open or fully closed – which means there is a big step difference between downforce levels if they use the device. The tunnel is fast enough and crucial enough to a lap time that drivers may feel that they have to run through the tricky corner with the DRS open, even though they are unsure about grip levels.

Petter Solberg's Rally Mexico shakedown test was halted temporarily when he damaged his Citroen DS3 WRC's steering this morning. In an effort to gain as much time in the car as possible – having only tested for a day on gravel (albeit a 14-hour day) – Solberg elected not to return to the service park in Leon and serviced his DS3 closer to the shakedown test. Solberg's team manager Ken Rees said: "There was an impact in the stage in a section where there would have been a water splash, but the water had dried up. "It's not clear exactly what happened with the car, but Petter called and asked to send some more parts up, which we did. We will have a good look when the car comes back to service, but it's up and running again." Solberg went on to set the second-fastest time on the stage. Shakedown itself was paused for an hour while the organizers dealt with the high number of spectators. Event director Patrick Suberville said: "There were too many spectators on two corners and [FIA safety delegate] Jacek Bartos said they must move positions before the test could continue. Naturally, we agreed with this decision and obviously helped to get the spectators to stand in a safe area. "We normally get a lot of spectators for the shakedown but usually at the start and finish of this stage. This time they were in other areas."

But, then it happened. That's right. My birthday. J got me food from California Pizza Kitchen for my birthday dinner and then of course, there was cake. There's always cake. |Southern Caramel Cake from Shyndigz| Trust me, it was so worth failing the challenge for. - I can make pretty much anything from scratch. It allows me to know EXACTLY what my family is eating, lets me manipulate the ingredients to our needs and is rather cost effective. It's something I will continue to do. - We are done buying packaged snacks, other than pretzels, popcorn, dried fruits and nuts. I can make granola bars. I can make cookies and muffins. I can even make potato, tortilla and pita chips (not that we ever eat them). The people in my house are just going to have to fall in line with that one. - The kids will eventually get on board. They liked quite a bit of what I made during the challenge. But, they also hated quite a bit of it. That's just kids being kids. If they are hungry enough, they will eat what I put in front of them. - This is my new favorite recipe - Three-Ingredient Chocolate Bars. - Sugar is everywhere. It can be avoided but it's hard. And what about things like GU that I use when I workout? I know what works for my stomach and I'm not about to switch that up. - Tea with honey is not the same as coffee with cream and sugar. Not even close. The green skirt is part of my costume for the Disney Princess Half. The Power Bands are just to add a little sparkle in my life. Oh, and to make my kids wicked jealous. Seriously, I had a near mutiny on my hands when I told them that they were mine.

Czech History Gregor Mendel’s landmark manuscript returns to his Brno abbey It can easily be called one of the most important documents in the history of modern science. Gregor Mendel’s priceless manuscript on the inheritance of plant traits, composed in Brno in 1865, opened the door to the field of genetics. This month, after many years of changing hands and much negotiation, it was brought home. Not much remains today of the little garden where Abbot Gregor Mendel spent a decade watching pea plants grow. Fortunately though, the manuscript made of his unique observations is still in good condition, and is currently sitting in a safe in the Mendel Museum in Brno after a thirty-year anabasis. Czech Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg made concerted efforts to bring the precious document back to the country. “I became involved with this because it truly is a landmark scientific work, created in the monastery in Brno, it is the property of the monastery in Brno, so that is where it belongs. I visited Baden-Württemberg where I discussed the matter with the minister-president. But it is not my achievement that it was possible to arrange this, there was a lot of work involved. “The value of this document is in its content, in the one-of-a-kind work that led to the foundation of an entire science. How much it would go for in an auction I don’t know, but that is not important. The important thing is that this is one of the key manuscripts of modern natural science.” In 1865, Mendel’s compiled his observations of tens of thousands of pea plants under the headline “Experiments on Plant Hybridization”, and delivered it to the Natural History Society of Brno – to no particular acclaim. The findings were appreciated and a few articles about them went to press, but it would be decades longer before they were understood and taken up by the wider scientific community. Gregor Mendel himself spent most of the rest of his life dealing with the administrative pains of his office as the abbot of the Old Brno Abby, and he died in 1881. Today there is no price that can be put to the thin stack of yellow paper that is Gregor Mendel’s Experiments on Plant Hybridization, with its splendid calligraphy and diagrams demystifying the workings of life on Earth. Ondřej Dostál is the curator of the Mendel Museum in Brno. “He was able to predict something he could not see, but anticipated to be inside of organisms: that something from the mother and the father was passed on to the ensuing generation. This is the first and the most important article leading to the discovery of genetics. It is a work that was absolutely fundamental, that helped ensure the foundation of genetics as it is today.” The latter history of Mendel’s breakthrough treatise is somewhat convoluted. The monastery was closed down in 1953 and Experiments on Plant Hybridization was apparently hidden by the Augustinian monks until the 1980s, when it was sent for safekeeping to Vienna, then to Germany. For Mendel’s successor, Abbot Evžen Martinec, it’s return to the Augustinians was the only appropriate solution. “Everything created by a monk living in the monastery stays in the monastery, so this is where this work belongs. And since this manuscript had been living a life of its own in recent years, I am very happy that it was possible that it be returned to us.” For the Mendel family, however, the situation is not so clear-cut and certainly not resolved. They say that the manuscript was in the possession of a family company since 2001 when it was given to them by a monk who had in turn received it from a scientific society of which Mendel was a member. They cite evidence that the Augustinians made no claim to the manuscript as of 2002 and say the Czech government reached a deal with them despite knowing that the order may not be the proper owner. The German family intends to take the matter to the courts. There was no talk of further disputes this month though, as the manuscript was unveiled in Brno. Mr Dostál says that plans for its exhibition will be finalised as soon as possible pending an examination of its condition. “Hopefully the manuscript will go on display soon; it depends on what arrangement is made with the Old Brno Abbey. What I’m sure will happen first is that the manuscript will be studied to make sure that it has not been damaged in any way and then we can decide on what occasion it will be presented. We assume it will be sometime early this year or in the summer months. But it will certainly be presented as soon as possible.” What Experiments on Plant Hybridization tells us about how life carries on and evolves is certainly well-known, but as Ondřej Dostál says, the manuscript also offers insights into Gregor Mendel himself and the kind of person that he was. “Mendel presented his information, described what he had measured, what he had discovered and everything that he had noticed in this document. The manuscript shows that he was a very precise person, very attentive to detail and a very clever researcher, practically a genius.” For the Mendel Museum, which is located in the Old Brno Monastery by the garden where genetics had their inauspicious beginnings, there can hardly be a better time to receive the great man’s life’s work, as it prepares to celebrate the 190th anniversary of his birth this July.

Whirlwind Medusa Splitter Snake 24x8x150ftx50ft/Free Shipping A splitter snake enables you to send audio from the stage to two different mixing consoles. Typically, one set of signals is fed to the main Front-of-House mixer, and one set is sent to a second mixer for monitoring or recording. Here's an example of a custom-built Whirlwind Medusa Splitter Snake. The snake on this page has 24 XLR input channels ("sends") and 8 XLR returns from the mixer to the stage. There is a 150 foot branch (to the main mixing console) and a fifty foot branch (usually to a monitor board). Each input channel is split or paralleled so that its signal is sent to both mixers, main and monitor. This snake can be further "customized" by the addition of ground lifts, transformer isolated outputs, quick-disconnects at the stage box and/or at the fan. It is often recommendable that a splitter snake have either ground lifts or tansformer isolated outputs or both. The snake on this page has neither. Please contact Rainbow Guitars for help in designing a Whirlwind Medusa snake to meet your exact needs. This product will beassembled and drop shipped directly to you from Whirlwind. This item is non-cancelable and non-returnable. It is usually ready to ship in 6-10 days.

It's a plane! It's Superman! The legendary Man of Steel, last survivor of the doomed planet Krypton lives on earth, assuming the secret identity of Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for the Metropolis Daily Planet. But with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men, he battles for truth and justice as Superman. This is the first Superman TV series! Originally aired in the 1950's, it featured George Reeves as Superman and enjoyed tremendous success during its broadcast. The TV series premise was established a year before its broadcast via the theatrical release of "Superman and The Mole Men" in 1951.Episodes:DVD 11. Superman on Earth2. The Haunted Lighthouse3.

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!"), THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN was the first attempt to bring the comic book character to television screens. This first season originally aired in 1952, and established great cinematic characters such as Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and of course Clark Kent himself. By day Kent attempts to live an anonymous existence as a reporter for the Daily Planet, but when trouble comes calling, he transforms into Superman, the last survivor from the planet Krypton. George Reeves convincingly played Superman throughout the first season of the show, and he returned to play the Man of Steel in all of the subsequent Seasons. Although it soon turned into a laugh-fest, this first series of adventures takes a serious approach to the characters, mirroring later interpretations such as LOIS & CLARK from the 1990s. Hugely popular in its day, this complete collection of episodes from the first season of THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN affords viewers the chance to wallow in some awesome retro TV action.

Sandra Chastain’s bestselling western romances shine with her special blend of love and laughter. Now the award-winning author leads us once again into the heart’s untamed territory as a mismatched couple rides a blazing trail to passion. McKenzie Kathryn Calhoun doesn’t mean to rob the bank in Promise, Kansas. But when she accidentally does, she doesn’t think—she runs. Suddenly the raggedy tomboy has the money to make a life for herself . . . if she doesn’t get caught. But it’s just her luck to find herself sitting across the stagecoach from a dangerously handsome, gun-toting preacher who seems to see through her bravado to the desperate woman beneath. John Lee Brandon figures that the feisty redhead is running from something. A hired gun, he’s masquerading as a reverend on his way to a mining town called Heaven—and it will take a shrewder lady than Macky to pull the wool over his eyes. But when the town welcomes them as “Preacher Adams” and his wife, he’s caught in a charade of respectable wedded bliss. And the two of them are headed for a showdown between lies and love. Includes a special message from the editor, as well as excerpts from these Loveswept titles: Ride with Me, See How They Run, and Ivy Secrets. About Sandra Chastain As a child I made up fantasy lives for my paper dolls, never knowing that I would use these same creative skills later as a writer. I only knew that I became those dolls and lived their lives. Later came amateur stage shows for the neighborhood children to perform, my first Nancy Drew mystery, a one-act play, and finally a musical performed by high school students on an auditorium stage. From the Indian tepee that Santa brought when I was a ten-year-old, to the living room I've recently converted into my office, I'm still stretching the boundaries of my imagination. After twenty years of working together, my husband and I sold our small-animal veterinary practice. Now he consults and practices part-time while I write full-time. Our three daughters are married, and we have grandchildren who always want Gran to tell them a story. And Gran always complies. I wouldn't change a thing about my life, for my family is a living expression of the love I write about. When I create a romance for you, I'm telling stories of love and commitment, and I can't tell you how much pleasure I get from writing about happily ever after. --Sandra Chastain

The move to Calderon over Jack did staunch the third-quarter wounds that have been inflicted the past two games against Sacramento and Golden State. "I thought Jose was playing pretty darn well," said Triano. "I thought we had a good rhythm with that group so I just rolled with it. When he was on the floor, I thought we were playing pretty darn good." However, the coach stopped short of confirming a permanent shift for Wednesday's game at home against Atlanta. "I might change it up a little bit, watch the tape again and see what we think is our best lineup," he said. But even though the Raptors carved an 11-point halftime deficit to seven after three, it wasn't enough to overcome a litany of other persistent problems. Portland held the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference, five games in front of Memphis, and just a half-game back of seventh-place San Antonio and a game back of Phoenix. The Raptors were also in the eighth place in the Eastern Conference, struggling while just a game up on Chicago. “There no science to it. It's not rocket science or brain surgery. You just have to win,” Bosh said. “If you make it complicated, it will be complicated. We just have to win games. That's all.” They haven’t forgotten Hedo Turkoglu’s snub here in Portland. A story in yesterday’s Oregonian rehashed the whole courting and subsequent spurning by Turkoglu. According to the article, Turkoglu twice made a verbal commitment to sign with Portland — once in a dinner with coach Nate McMillan in Orlando and again to general manager Kevin Pritchard during a visit to Portland. McMillan, though, isn’t interested in rehashing the events. Back in Toronto when the Trail Blazers visited in February, McMillan suggested Turkoglu “could have handled it in a different way” but didn’t sound too broken up with the way it went down. “He made his decision and we’ve moved on,” he said. With the loss, the Raptors fell a game below .500 for the first time since Jan. 20. The Raptors continue to defend like their allergic to the activity, but it had to feel nice for a change to at least be in a game. The Raps remain a game up on Chicago for eighth place in the East but wins by both Charlotte and Miami on Sunday night mean they are now two full games out of sixth and seventh spots. Bosh, after he aired his teammates out for a lack of passion following the Golden State game, wisely stepped up his own game hitting for 27 points and seven rounds to lad the charge. The Raptors downfall, though, was in two of the same three areas that they were so woefully exposed the night before in Oakland. For most of the season, Chris Bosh's future seemed like a coin flip. You could make an argument that he might stay a Toronto Raptor; you could make an argument that he was destined to leave the Toronto Raptors behind. Nobody could – or can – say for sure. But despite various predictions that Bosh had already made up his mind to flee, there was not a shred of tangible evidence that was the case. Three weeks ago he was downplaying the much-ballyhooed free-agent madness of 2010, suggesting it was more and more likely that the biggest names of this free-agent class – LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, in that order – might stay exactly where they were. "I think it's a very strong possibility," he told nba.com. "When it comes down to it, that's where you're comfortable, that's where … you started your career. It's always a very important thing." “Mrs. Turkoglu,” the homemade sign read, “Thanks for Andre.” And indeed, we are thankful. Thankful for a whip-smart ball handler. Thankful for a cagey veteran. Thankful for a guy who’s finally pushing the tempo (at least a bit). Thankful for one of the best rebounding guards in the league. And last, but not least, thankful not to have a big, dopey, bad-shot taking, constantly complaining, junk-food scarfing small forward clogging up his arteries, the Portland payroll and the Blazers starting lineup. So yes, thank you Mrs. Turkoglu—for from saving us from ourselves (or at least the whim of Paul Allen). Because of you, the correct and natural order of things were maintained. LaMarcus Aldridge appeared extra-motivated to begin the game. He sent a physical message by banging into his defenders chest-to-chest and he backed it up by putting up more than half of his shot attempts (11 of 21) and scoring more than half of his points (12 of 22) in the opening period. As the Raptors began to devote extra attention to Aldridge inside, things quickly opened up for Portland's perimeter players. Andre Miller alternately drove into the paint and operated from the post, dishing off smartly for layups and dunks and finishing his own attempts at the rim. Brandon Roy struggled with his shot some (6 of 16 from the field after back-to-back hot shooting nights in California) but he commanded extra attention from Toronto's defense and made consistently solid reads, finding perimeter shooters who couldn't miss. Tonight, Turkoglu went through the motions like so many slightly above average players on slightly below average teams. His shot was falling (4 of 5 from deep), he was careless with the basketball (4 turnovers) and he did not impact the game on the boards or on the defensive end. Don’t look now but it could be a really, really, really long 5 years. If you were to look at the stat sheet without knowing who won the game, you would have assumed the Raptors walked away with the win. Shooting 56 percent for the night compared to 46 for the Blazers. Comparable stats in assists, turnovers and rebounds. It certainly doesn’t have the appearance of a 10 point loss. I guess sometimes, the stats don’t tell the tale. Wow that was an incredibly painful road trip. Hopefully the Raptors can surprise us all with a couple of motivational wins against the Hawks and Thunder, before the schedule finally eases off for two -with stops in New Jersey and Minnesota. Stay patient Raptors fans. It was starting to look like the Raptors rookie DeMar DeRozan had finally hit the rookie wall and something would have to be done. DeRozan has started in every game he has played for the Raptors this season and is averaging 8.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.3 blocks in 21 minutes per game. But the pre-All-Star bump in DeRozan’s game vanished quickly after the break, and the rookie was looking like, well a rookie. In DeRozan’s last 10 games, he has maintained his season averages. But the zero points he put up against Houston and the two points against Portland and Washington stand out. The Raptors had a little more to address this past offseason than toughness, athleticism, defence, and rebounding. How about a 2-3 “skilled” wing player that can cause havoc on opposing defenses, just as they do to the Raptors on a nightly basis, ala Tyreke Evans, Steph Curry, Monte Ellis, and Kobe on this current road trip alone. Hedo Turkaglu was never going to be, and has not been, the answer. The Raptors simply do not have an elite-wing player. To begin, an elite-wing player would generally defend opposing wing players as well as they possibly could be defended because of their quickness and athleticism. The Raptors look in disarray on defence on many possessions involving penetrations from opposing wing players. The rotations aren’t crisp and decisive enough to make up for the inability of their perimeter defenders to play man-to-man. Toronto's Hedo Turkoglu was close to signing with the Blazers last summer as a free agent. The 6-foot-10 forward even came to Portland and met with general manager Kevin Pritchard. But the deal abruptly fell through and Turkoglu, who helped Orlando to the NBA finals last season, agreed the next week to join the Raptors. Turkoglu was booed loudly during pregame introductions. Conversely, former Blazers guard Jarrett Jack received a warm round of applause. Turkoglu then made a 3-pointer 19 seconds into the game.

Nose and flavor are both a strange combination of barrel, vanilla, spice, and some weird acidic notes. Palate is oily but a bit thin. I don’t mind it, but it’s not great. MrChopin (2527) - Baltimore, Maryland, USA - OCT 9, 2011 3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 black pour, cardboard colored thin head, late bubbled ring lasting. Light oat, stinging sugar, bit of rounded malt from the stout base. Flavor is sweeter, particularly rum, more barrel and definite raisin sugar through the finish, light cake-malt emerging. Small bit of interplay but just surface, too little malt, bland in fact and the sugar in the finish is distracting, bit off milky finish. Drake (6491) - Ivy, Virginia, USA - OCT 9, 2011 3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Bottle shared by GT2. Pours a dark brown color with a thin brown head. Decent head retention. Aroma of roasted malts, caramel, earthy notes and raisin. The taste is roasted malts, nutty notes, caramel, spice and bitter hops. Medium bodied. Nice. oteyj (2114) - New Hampshire, USA - OCT 9, 2011 3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Uber thick rich black pour with a thin tan head. Raisin, bakers chocolate, milk chocolate, lactic sugars, and caramel give way to a medium to full body, a sweet finish, and low carbonation throughout. CaptainCougar (7093) - Columbia, Maryland, USA - OCT 8, 2011 3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Pours an oily opaque with a spotty-lacing beige head. Has a sweet dark caramel and raisin nose with a touch of warming alcohol. Starts with good fullness and chewy dark caramel maltiness with some dark fruity complexity before a drier sticky warming finish. Pretty good complexity but could use some time to age. ryan (3185) - Beltsville, Maryland, USA - OCT 8, 2011 2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Very sweet nose, lots of dark fruit, some chocolate and molasses, some lasting alcohol notes. Taste is very sweet, some raisins, some chocolate, but everything else is completely destroyed by the massive ash, tar and ink, as well as thin, burnt coffee. Texture is like chewing on a piece of chalk. Lasting stringent finish. GT2 (5659) - Riverslime, California, USA - OCT 8, 2011 3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 750mL. The pour is an ultra deep ink pour- ultra deep motor oil color. Superlative SRM with a small, reddish head. Not much retention and spotty lace. Nose is cinnamon raisin cookies, spices, ginger, briny olive. Some Kalamata olive. Taste is fairly tart and acidic. Citrus and lemony tart. Cardboard and chalk in finish. Very salty and moderately bland. Eh. BeerandBlues2 (7418) - Hanover, Maryland, USA - OCT 8, 2011 3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Bottle shared by GT2. Pours opaque with a small, fizzy brown head, medium retention with good lacing. Aroma is heavy roast and chocolate malt, leather yeast, licorice, prune, raisin, and dates with light earthy and minty hops. Flavor is roast malt, raisin and prunes, leather notes with plum, light roasted bitterness with a dry finish. Full body, medium warmth and carbonation. kbutler1 (1259) - Minnesota, USA - OCT 5, 2011 3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Bottle. Pours a dark brown murky color with a tan collared head. Roasty, dark fruits like raisin, and leather in the nose. Sweet upfront with notes of dark fruit, tobacco, leather, with a slight bitterness in the end. Some dark chocolate notes as well but minimal compared to everything else. Some booze notes. finol (1686) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - OCT 2, 2011 3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Bottle at SBWF 2011. Barley wine like, sweet, raisins and vinous.

Aromas of tropical fruit, yealt and malt. Flavors of pineapple, citrus and malt. Very mild, but very drinkable. McTapps (1484) - Ruhrgebiet, GERMANY - MAY 19, 2013 2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Can. Cloudy light yellow in colour with crisp body and airy steady head. Nose of light Belgian yeast. Taste of fresh mild yeast, coriander, grass, parsley, hay and barley. Easy to drink but little bit too thin and watery to taste really good.

A nice Witbier with some of their typical aromas but in the end a bit artficial and too much sugar in the sweetness. Defnitely a nice one where you can taste the orange in the background. To recommend. maley1 (470) - calgary, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 14, 2013 2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Hazy light golden pour with small off white head. Aroma of yeast, wheat and citrus. Taste of wheat and citrus, slight corn sweetness. Very thin mouthfeel, would probably go down half decent on a super hot day. b3shine (2234) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAY 12, 2013 3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Draft to taster at Dutch’s. Looks decent; a cloudy light gold with white lacing. Smells of dough, yeast, and citrus. Tastes like it smells with an average mouthfeel.

At first it was too different, but the more I drank the more I liked. Very weird label. Urine is not what one would want to associate with beer, but people like Corona, so there you are! Fritz123 (235) - Boca Raton, Florida, USA - MAY 7, 2013 3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Draft at Bad Ragaz Hall Boyton Beach, FL.

Strong aroma of grassy hop. Medium body with pale malt and grassy hop. A bit of sweet overpowered by hop bitter - just lightly bready. Finishes nicely clean and bitter. Lots of stuff in this one. Not at all thin. burg326 (2326) - Florida, USA - AUG 27, 2011 3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 22 ounce bomber that pours a hazy yellow with aromas of grass, hops, and slight hint of apples.

Clear yellow with small white head. Noble, floral, grainy aromas to start but a little solventy as it opens. Flavor is a little corny, toasty, but disappointingly unbitter. A touch chemical on an otherwise smooth finish. joeneugs (2143) - Livermore, California, USA - MAR 2, 2013 3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 On tap at the brewery. It pours a clear yellow color with a big white head. It has a lemony/orange aroma with some noble hops spiciness. The flavor has grainy malt, lightly sweet corn and good noble hop bitterness in the finish. The carbonation was a bit low. daknole (7204) - Scottsdale, Arizona, USA - SEP 1, 2009 3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 damn only the second rating? wow. Gold pour. Some nice hop aroma and light malt. Flavor is malty and has a good dose of hops. I was surprised that this one was smooth and easy to drink. Not amazing, but still ok.

Head is white and quick to fade. Aromas are grassy, herbal hop notes, sulfur, sawdust, grainy, pils malt, a bit of DMS, and a sharp note that I can’t quite place (could just be a carbonic bite, not sure). Flavors are mild. Bready. Good malt character that finishes slightly sweet. Light herbal hop notes. Quick duration. A hint of DMS but less than the aroma. Lively bubbles and dry. Decent. monk191 (368) - California, USA - MAR 25, 2012 3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20 A unique pilsner. Smells and tastes fruity, almost more like a wheat. One of the better pilsners I've had. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone marcus (5004) - Sacramento, California, USA - SEP 22, 2009 2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 This clear golden beer poured with a fluffy white head and a grassy aroma. It’s a refreshing drink, with a decent pale malt base and sufficient hop bitterness. kmweaver (3143) - Santa Rosa, California, USA - JAN 6, 2010 2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 12oz, purchased at Andy’s Market in Sebastopol. Pours an almost slightly pinkish-tinged golden color; slightly hazy; significant white head formation with good retention and the lacing; that off-color just really gets me here (seriously, look at it alongside another pilsener). Some green apple and strange fruitiness in the aroma; light mineral bitterness; this smells a bit green and flawed, sadly; tried this alongside Trumer Pils (bottle) and while the latter was inevitably green-bottle skunked, it carried the clear pilsener notes much more clearly; this is very fruity, minimally bitter, and not overly crisp. Medium mouthfeel: this follows the aroma pretty closely, some red fruit and light bubblegum yeastiness (seriously?), light mineral and hints of citrus notes, and a somewhat meaty (heft-wise) and sugary core; fluffy, pillowy carbonation helps the mouthfeel; otherwise a heavily off-style pilsener, perhaps a bit flawed, but not unenjoyable by any means: it actually somehow survives the green apple, off color, and misplaced fruit. Lasting finish, with lots of red fruits and an emergent mineral bitterness that lingers, along with a toastiness, similarly late in appearance. riversideAK (5413) - Shoreline, Washington, USA - JAN 9, 2010 2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Bottle from kmweaver. Thanks man! Nose is rather cidery with bread and peppery hops underneath. Pours hazy pale golden thinnish head. Bread, some cider sweetness, perhaps light yeast esters (weird) bread and lightly dry bittering hops in finish. Light but off and not to style.

Aroma is heavy roast with a bit of char and some light sweet malt on the finish. Taste is dominated by roasted malt with char, perhaps slight ash, coffee rinds, a subtle and pleasant sweet malt presence about mid-palate, and a very clean finish. Mouthfeel is somehow crisp up front but creamy into the finish. Damn fine beer with a ton of flavor for 5% ABV. Impressed. nuplastikk (3284) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - MAY 18, 2013 4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 Tap at Oasis Micropub.

Lager. There is just something so relaxing about lager, isnít there? Pours a very thin looking black and forms a light brown head which doesnít last all that long. Aromas of roast and some cocoa. Taste is just pure relaxation... Subtle, supple, succulent. Light roast. So good. So very, very good. annunz123 (629) - Taunton, Massachusetts, USA - APR 19, 2013 3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Malty aroma with roast and nuts.

Dry nutty and biscuity malty nose with notes of chocolaty roast and dry cracker.

DocJitsu (305) - California, USA - MAR 31, 2013 3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Pours an opaque black. No head at all. Mouthfeel is wet with slight carbonation. It couldíve been a bit creamier. Aroma is pretty disappointing. Smoky like a burnt piece of toast. Pretty weak flavor of dark roast malt. Some underlying notes of plasticky cream. Iíll never make this mistake again. madvike (2077) - Middleton, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 22, 2013 3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Bottle - Pours black with a big tan head.

puzzl (3172) - New York, New York, USA - OCT 25, 2009 3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Tap at Night of the Funk. Listen up Sam Adams: this is the best sour you’ve done by far. Normally an American sour shouldn’t go in the Unblended Lambic category here on RB, but this really *is* an unblended lambic. It tastes the part to a tee. Which also means that, like other unblended lambics, it really needs to be blended. It Sam could keep this kind of beer going in different batches over the years they could make a killer gueuze — no joke. I’ve not yet tasted another American beer this close to a real unblended lambic. Excellent effort. Other brewers have something to learn from this: time is tantamount to your sour’s success. Far too many brewers try to knock them off in 6 months and it just doesn’t work that way. PilsnerPeter (3019) - Flushing, New York, USA - OCT 22, 2009 2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 Sample at Night of the Funk 2009: Hazy deep copper with a bubbly off white head. The aroma is quite solventy- band aid phenolics, candied cherry and papery oxidation. Slick body with a light mouthfeel. Lots of medicinal and solventy qualities in the flavor. Quite sweet and band aid ridden- no discerning Lambic qualities of funk or dryness. No where near the style’s demands. bu11zeye (11111) - Frisco (Dallas), Texas, USA - OCT 19, 2009 3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 (Draught) Pours a cloudy burnt orange body with a small off-white head. Aroma of barnyard, horseblanket, subtle bleu cheese, and grass. Flavor of earth, grass, light acidity, and wood. A bit bland.

Aroma is sweet dried fruits, lemon grass, and caramel. Flavour is caramel, dark fruits, light alcohol, and mild lemon and lime. Reimer96 (589) - Alberta, CANADA - MAY 18, 2013 3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Pours a clear amber with a light brown head. Aroma of candy sugar, coriander, citrus, caramel and belgian yeast. Taste is caramel, brown sugar, lemongrass with some lime on the finish. Interesting take on a regular double as the added citrus does make the high abv very smooth however the beer doesnít seem as full bodied as it could be. jbruner (1118) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - APR 19, 2013 2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 Can shared thanks to Tim and Rachel! Pours a deep copper brown with thin cap of tan filmy head and light lacing. Aroma is odd astringency followed by spice and caramel. Taste is slightly better if you can somehow close your nose to the odd smell. Nice sweet malty aftertaste. Weird. rbrazell (961) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - APR 19, 2013 2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Thanks Tim and Rachel. Deep amber with a quickly fading head. Super synthetic raspberry and banana sweetness, Belgian candy sugars and not much else. Very sweet flavor with same fruitiness as the nose and a light spice and boozy end. Can't get down with this b 19Ei8hty (1076) - Washington, USA - APR 18, 2013 3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Deep mahogany clear body with bright ruby notes. Very belgian nose with sweet key lime notes. Smells a bit funky at first but evolves into greater complexity after it warms. Very sweet malty body consisting of a bready caramel character. Some golden raisin notes with sharp fresh grass and maybe plum and banana. Yeast notes are pervasive and the coriander is well done in how subtle its presence is made. Itís a little strange but does go together well. Gramoit (251) - AUSTRALIA - APR 9, 2013 3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Pours amber, with a quick receding head. Very drinkable for 8.5 this beer has many flavours but none seem to take over, other than the toffee. Pretty good beer in the end, would like to have again as I could see myself rating this higher in the future. theisti (2821) - Leawood, Kansas, USA - FEB 27, 2013 3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 16 oz can courtesy of bvc. The pour is slight haze brown copper golden with a small light tan head that falls quick. The aroma is lemon lime, green pepper, and the spice of coriander. The taste is initially a bunch of the lime flavor, moving into the coriander, and general yeastiness in the back. A mildly sweet nutty malt is present throughout. The lemon grass is all over the finish. Interesting flavors, decently integrated. Green apple comes out as it warms and detracts some from my enjoyment. The palate is medium bodied, softer carbonation, earth, vegetal, lemon grass in the finish. Fun beer, thanks Brandon. RapeBeer (19) - Indiana, USA - FEB 11, 2013 4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 I used to be a huge sucker for interesting labels on beers. I quickly learned my lesson. After years of skepticism, I finally caved when this silly little can caught my eye. The color scheme on the can resembles that of some overblown iced tea, not a secretly delicious beer. I picked it up and read the description and saw coriander, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaf listed as flavors. I couldnít help but pick up a 4-pack. I was nervous as I tasted my first sip but totally relieved when I had swished and swallowed my inaugural gulp. All the goofball flavors promised on the can came through but not in an overpowering or gimmicky way. Totally legit. patricks110 (1212) - Alberta, CANADA - JAN 24, 2013 3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Quite nice actually with a bit of a roasted malt up front with candied raisins, caramel, toffee and a robust coriander. Sweet and well balanced flavour. The appearance is gorgeous with a bright ruby red tinge and a burgundian body. The head is almost non existant. The one discerning thing is that this is rather light bodided. Overall, quite nice. after4ever (5287) - Brier, Washington, USA - JAN 22, 2013 2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 16-oz can. Pours clear medium amber with a loose white head. Treacly sweet powdered sugar nose. Watery light body with too little carb. Reedy sweet mid palate, like raw sugar with a bit of citric acid.

Article #4: Pleasures, Instinctive and Acquired Remember the meanings of joys or pleasures are elative. The inveterate cigarette smoker may insist that he gets pleasure from smoking. But this same man will have to agree that this feeling of pleasure primarily had to be acquired. The first cigarette was everything but pleasant, but in spite of it, by conformity the habit is started. Later, the inevitable effects of drug addiction take hold and the smokers find "pleasure" in smoking the smoke containing the alkaloids. In a similar fashion, sensations of pleasure can be cultivated from the eating of harmful foods. Think about the candy, doughnut, cake and soft drink habit, all giving relative "pleasures."? Surprisingly, animal flesh belongs in the same category of providing "pleasure." In this case it is obtained from the meat containing alkaloids, with their stimulating action. It may be shocking to some of us to learn that we are imbibing narcotics, when partaking in the eating of meat. We have digressed somewhat to establish the meaning of pleasure. The point is knowing that there are several types. Some pleasures are deeply inherent, instinctive and satisfy constructively. Other pleasures are of relative significance. They later had to be learned in the overcoming of inborn natural protective instincts. This explains the sickening feeling after the first cigarette or the belching or burning signals uttered by protesting digestive organs. We could also include the resulting disgust most of us experience when passing a butcher shop. The "enjoyment" of meat is definitely a relative and learned pleasure. What is amazing is to discover our own immense capacities for adjustment. Once the mind has appropriated the truth, an unrelenting change in our feelings surges ahead. Natural instincts again take over, with a reshuffling of pleasure concepts. Not all of us can benefit from such a reform, directed by our own free will. When I returned from Argentina with the evidence and pictures of Dr. Roffo's cancer experiments, showing the horrible and gory results of smoking in my professional classes, I could always expect a certain percentage of my students to quit the habit. I mentioned a "certain percentage," why not all of them? Simply the message did not go through, their minds refused to accept it. Remember, only some of us, not all of us, do recognize the truth, when it is presented. When the pupil is ready, the master will appear.

Newly Pregnant and having aversions! I just recently found out that I am expecting. I've been 100% raw for 4 months now. I planned to do the same through the pregnancy, because of how great I feel all the time! The first four weeks were great. I was drinking green smoothies and green drinks everyday, salads, sprouts, wheat grass, etc, just as I always had. In the last few days I've hit a road block. I'm having incredibly strong cravings and aversions... along with some nausea. No sickness, just nausea, just like with my first pregnancy. I'm having cravings for cooked foods, food I don't eat, and aversions to greens and sprouts. I've heard that a lot of pregnant women have these aversions to greens and the theory being the baby cannot properly process them early on in the pregnancy. I've always loves greens, and the thought of eating them now is a nightmare. I don't know what to do. I want to eat the best possible, but I also believe in listening to my body and cravings. I believe cravings are there for a reason. Anyone heard of any theories or facts behind this? I don't wan't to force myself to eat them, if its not vital. As for the cooked food, I have been eating that in the last few days, vegan of course. Haven't even really enjoyed that either, but at least I could bare to bring it to my mouth! I've also been extremely sluggish and tired... could be the cooked food that my body is not used to, could be the pregnancy. I am taking a raw prenatal vitamin, but I really want to be sure I'm getting proper nutrition. When I do eat raw the last couple of days, its one thing... one carrot, one apple, orange juice, one banana. Also drinking a little coconut water. Thats all that I can stomach. If anyone has had similar experience or has any words of wisdom, I'd love to here! This is my first 'raw' pregnancy and I'm excited! no baby stuff knowledge here , but want to say is ide add alot of homemade nut n seed milks for their high protein and good fats . plus theyre easy on stomach . and great bases for fruit smoothies Yes, I do that everyday. That is usually my base for smoothies. I'm also rotating with using a nettle infusion for my smoothie base. I know its really high is iron and calcium. I think my smoothies are the only good think I'm getting right now, as far as hard core raw nutrition. Maybe I should just do a few a day! and with seed n nut you can use alot of them to make a very potent / concentrated milk two things ive found as 20 year vegan that put bulk on me are walnuts (good omega too) and i think recently ive found that surprisingly spirulina which im mixing with orange juice is putting on bulk . though i guess not surprising as its very protein high . im adding heaping tbsp per day to orange juice which makes it taste good . though i also buy slippery elm in bulk from mountain rose to add tbsp per too and this seems to be a real good stomach soother oh hemp seed too May I ask, what do you mean by put on bulk? My concern is getting enough nutrition, not necessarily just putting on weight, if thats what you mean. I know that will happen naturally, as long as I'm getting proper nutrition. Thank for your suggestion with the spirulina and orange juice. I think I'll try that! I'll also check on slippery elm and pregnancy :) Any other advice welcome! sorry i left that uncatergorized . i meant put on bulk on your baby . providing the heavy protein / fats for full development before birth . plus building up yourself back up from your bodies work of providing nutrients for developing baby You can do it!! My last baby, baby number 7, was a totally raw pregnancy. THE BEST PREGNANCY AND HEALTHIEST BABY I HAD. Even today she is bright, her skin is smooth, soft, lusterous. She is simply beautiful. Not that any of my other children are not, just that she still glows from within, six years later. She is always at a healthy weight and makes better food choices than the others. Cravings and aversions. Go with it. Don't worry about not wanting greens right now, it will pass. Walk through the produce section and look and touch everything. Something will present itself. I know that sounds weird, but I have truly found that the body is able to tell you what it needs if you listen. You'll know. Women in their first trimester often are sick, it's a naturally occuring thing in pregnancy. Don't worry about it. Eat what and when you can. I found that peppermint tea with honey and chammomile and a squeeze of lemon to be soothing to the stomach, or a glass of ice water with a half a lemon squeezed in. Or just the peppermint tea and honey. Also, some say ginger (I could not do it pregnant...) You can grate that and put it directly in with the peppermint tea, that is actually pretty good. YAY!! CONGRATULATIONS!! Children are amazing little people. What a blessing! Ack! I think that is a no no when pregnant. Be sure to check it first. :) Can't wait to hear more on this amazing journey. Due to potential harmful bacteria to the baby, they don't recommend to eat sprout while pregnant. You are doing the right choice to go with raw food. Every single woman that were 100% raw and deliver that i heard of, was a very fast delivery versus hours. The energy that you use to digest food not properly combined, or cook food is wasted. Doing raw food, the energy will help the baby is so many ways. Do greens, eat goji berries (rich in A and Iron), hemp seeds (essential amino acid). You need to make sure that you aren't deficient with your vitamin A or B. Folic acid rich food is important also. A safe bet, is to go with as much different color as possible to cover the whole game. I am not a nutritionist so please research. Congratulations and wishing you a healthy baby, very good delivery and support! Blessings and love -Raw Angel Mom “Never be afraid of loving the Blessed Virgin too much.

LOS ANGELES — California is closely monitoring efforts to contain leaks from a quake-damaged Japanese nuclear plant, a spokesman said Saturday, as experts said radiation could be blown out across the Pacific. While officials downplayed any immediate danger, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission deployed two experts to Japan, where the Fukushima plant, which was rocked by a large explosion earlier in the day in the aftermath of Japan’s strongest-ever earthquake. “At present there is no danger to California. However we are monitoring the situation closely in conjunction with our federal partners,” Michael Sicilia, spokesman for California Department of Public Health, told AFP. “California does have radioactivity monitoring systems in place for air, water and the food supply and can enhance that monitoring if a danger exists,” he added. He was speaking as Japanese authorities moved to calm fears of a meltdown and said a huge explosion Saturday had not ruptured the container surrounding the reactor, although there had already been some radiation leakage prior to the explosion. Experts have suggested that, if there were a reactor meltdown or major leak at Fukushima, the radioactive cloud would likely be blown out east across the Pacific, towards the US West Coast. “The wind direction for the time being seems to point the (nuclear) pollution towards the Pacific,” said Andre-Claude Lacoste of the French Nuclear Safety Authority, briefing journalists in Paris on the Japanese crisis. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission meanwhile said it has sent two experts to Japan, and has been in regular contact with Japanese officials about the crisis. “We have some of the most expert people in this field in the world working for the NRC and we stand ready to assist in any way possible,” commission chairman Gregory Jaczko said in a statement announcing the deployment. He said the pair were experts in boiling water nuclear reactors and are part of a broader US aid team sent to the disaster zone. Earlier the NRC said it was “examining all available information as part of the effort to analyze the event and understand its implications both for Japan and the United States.” While US nuclear experts acknowledged the seriousness of Japan’s reactor crisis, some stressed that taking steps in the United States such as distributing iodine tablets — which prevent iodine 131 from being absorbed into the body — would be “vastly premature.” “It’s a big ocean. These (radiation) releases are essentially going to be at ground level,” said Ken Bergeron, a physicist who has worked on nuclear reactor accident simulation. “We should not confuse it with health issues in the United States.” Japan is roughly 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers) from the US West Coast.

Another victory for Jim Mallinder's side could leave Edinburgh languishing at the bottom of the table with their chances of qualification hanging by a thread. And Moffat is demanding the Gunners must not only beat Saints, but start picking up victories away from Murrayfield, in order to save their ailing campaign. "It's definitely a must-win game against Northampton," said Moffat. "We played pretty well last weekend but lost by a point so we have to win on Saturday. "We don't want to be looked upon as brave losers - We want to be winners and that's what it's about this week. "We won our home games last year and that's what we have to do. "We also have to win one or two away to qualify this time around but the players have that Moffat makes one change to his starting XV which lost at Cardiff City Stadium as James King replaces Alex Grove at inside centre, while Mallinder's Saints remain unchanged.

2005 OPEN FORUM Abstracts Distribution of Selected Airway Clearance Modalities in Pediatric Patients Using an Assess & Treat Algorithm Kathleen Deakins RRT-NPS, Mary Lou Drahnak RRT-NPS, Robert L. Chatburn RRT-NPS, FAARC Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital Cleveland, OH Background: The Respiratory Care Consult Service (RCCS) is a standardized assessment and treatment program designed to assist physicians in choosing the appropriate Respiratory Care plan for the patient. Historically, goals of the RCCS have been shown to be successful in adult patients. Applying a RCCS for pediatric patients often requires some specificity due to developmental needs that affect the delivery of care. The purpose of this protocol evaluation is to determine the distribution of selected therapeutic modalities in pediatric patients resulting from implementing an airway clearance algorithm, and its associated protocols on pediatric patients. Methods: Over a six-month period in 2004, 191 pediatric patients with physician's orders for airway clearance therapies (ACT) were evaluated through the RCCS using a modified adult airway clearance algorithm with pediatric-specific requirements such as age, weight and known responder criteria. Physicians were aware of the consult service practices and were notified about the choice of treatment modality and proposed Respiratory Care plan at the conclusion of each consult. Patients using other care paths or protocols such as Asthma Care Path and Cystic Fibrosis Carepath, or Cardiothoracic patients were not considered for evaluation through the RCCS. Chronic care patients receiving baseline respiratory care treatments at home were consulted and treatment type remained the same unless rendered ineffective during the acute exacerbation of the disease process. The distribution of treatment modalities is displayed in this graph (as actual numbers of patients). Conclusion: Chest physiotherapy, primarily indicated for presence of a focal infiltrate, accounts for a large portion of ACT in this population; as pediatric patients often meet this criteria, and when less than two years of age, may not be eligible for other modalities. Selecting airway clearance modalities derived from algorithm-based decision tools allows standardized assessment of the effectiveness of treatment, helps identify best practice goals and assists in the derivation of benchmarking data against non-protocol-based treatment in children.

Don’t even try to put a label on rising indie band Dirty Projectors. It won’t stick for very long. “Our music combines music from all different corners,” says Dave Longstreth, the Brooklyn-based band’s singer, guitarist and principal songwriter. “It seems like more of an arid activity to make a song in some historical style at this point than to make something out of the music swirling in your head.” That could be almost anything: Over the course of six albums, Longstreth has continually grown his band — shifting the lineup, drastically tweaking the group’s sound and working under rigid concept strictures for projects: 2005’s “The Getty Address” was a rock-opera about the Aztec Empire and Don Henley, while 2007’s “Rise Above” reimagined hardcore punkers Black Flag’s 1981 record “Damaged.” The band came into its own with 2009’s “Bitte Orca,” the first Dirty Projectors album to feature Longstreth’s chorus of backup singers — Angel Deradoorian (who’s now on hiatus from the band), Haley Dekle, and his girlfriend, Amber Coffman. The album was a hit with critics, winding up near the top of Pitchfork’s, Time’s and the Village Voice’s year-end lists. And its latest, “Swing Lo Magellan,” might be the group’s most organic disc yet. Whereas “Bitte Orca” maximized the band’s sound, weaving in elements of hip-hop, R&B, punk, classical music and West African guitar rock, “Swing Lo Magellan” simplifies things. The key elements remain, but the vibe is rawer and looser; some of the tracks even feel like demos. “I got interested in simplicity,” Longstreth says. “The sound of one thing happening in the speakers becomes gigantic when there aren’t six other things with it.” The disc still delivers some head-scratchers: “Just From Chevron” ponders a dying oil-rig worker, and the album’s title track was apparently inspired by a brand of GPS device, not the first man to circumnavigate the globe. But there are also plenty of direct, folksy love songs, making for a pretty accessible album. Just don’t expect that to last. “I could settle into a groove, or it could change radically,” Longstreth says. “I have no idea.” Under the Influence Dirty Projectors reinterpret, riff on and borrow from disparate genres. Here’s a short guide to the band’s many points of musical connection: The 2005 rock opera “The Getty Address” deals with the Aztec Empire and a protagonist called Don Henley, a name also in use by the former drummer for the Eagles. Longstreth, above far left, later posted a letter online to Henley explaining his intent with the record and thanking him for coloring his view of the world. Jason Aldean/Eric Church Production inspiration for “Swing Lo Magellan’s” opening track, “Offspring Are Blank,” came from two contemporary country songs: Jason Aldean’s “Dirt Road Anthem” and Eric Church’s “Homeboy.” “Even the most blue-blooded American music is a highly hybridized thing at this point,” Longstreth says. “It’s weird.” Longstreth sometimes starts writing by making beats and admits “it took a while to get out of late-era Timbaland” mode. The famed producer was an influence on Dirty Projectors’ breakout 2009 hit “Stillness Is the Move.” Though the song is anchored by an African-style guitar, it began as a Timbaland-esque beat. Beyoncé’s sister Solange Knowles is hip to Dirty Projectors; she even recorded a cover of “Stillness Is the Move” and sang the song live with them. She must have turned her brother-in-law on to the band, too, because Jay-Z tapped them as one of the acts for his Made in America music fest. “I would love to produce for Jay,” Longstreth says. “Make some beats, make some tracks.” Longstreth followed up “The Getty Address” with another high-concept experiment: re-creating Black Flag’s 1981 LP “Damaged” strictly from memory. Longstreth’s memory must have been sketchy, because the songs he wrote for the project (2007’s “Rise Above”) bear little resemblance to any of the songs on “Damaged.” If you had to compare Dirty Projectors to anyone, it would probably be new-wave legends Talking Heads. Like Dirty Projectors, Talking Heads were a band in constant evolution, expanding their sound over the course of eight albums. Singer David Byrne also collaborated with Dirty Projectors for a 2009 album to benefit AIDS charities. Plus, both bands have a singer named Dave. 9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW; with Wye Oak; Fri. & Sat., 8 p.m., sold out; 202-265-0930. (U Street)

MOVIE REVIEW- Going green: Remake gives deja Hulk Would you let one bad movie stand in the way of a potential billion-dollar franchise? Neither would Universal Pictures and Marvel Comics, so they've attempted a cultural lobotomy on the order of "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" to make the world forget Ang Lee's The Hulk. Fads have limited shelf lives, or at least cyclical popularity, so while movies based on comic superheroes are hot, five years is enough to wait for a second attempt at making a blockbuster of The Incredible Hulk. Is it better than the first? Yes. (Oh, sorry. The Hulk never happened, so there's nothing to compare.) Is it in a league with Iron Man or the first two Spider-Man films? No. Edward Norton is as good an actor as Robert Downey Jr. when he gets the right role, but Bruce Banner isn't it. During the opening credits, we get glimpses of the experiment that injects him with gamma rays and goes horribly wrong; then we join him in a Brazilian favela after 158 "days without incident." He's working in a juice bottling plant and worries when he cuts his finger about any blood getting into the juice. (Cue the movie's best inside joke when it does.) (Speaking of inside jokes, the late Bill Bixby, the 1970s TV Hulk, is represented by a clip from another TV series, while '90s TV Hulk Lou Ferrigno voices the Hulk and reprises his role as a security guard from the non-existent 2003 movie. Wild horses won't drag info on the final cameo from me, even though you've probably heard about it already.) Bruce's experiment was supervised by his girlfriend, Dr. Elizabeth "Betty" Ross (Liv Tyler), a cellular biologist whose father, General Ross (William Hurt), is hoping to turn Bruce into a "supersoldier," a weapon he can duplicate. After the Hulk incident in the lab, Ross starts searching for the fugitive, who is secretly corresponding with someone in New York who hopes to cure him. The general wants Bruce cloned, not cured. Tracking him down in Rio, Ross sends troops, including commando Capt. Emil Blonsky (Tim Roth), with orders to "tranq him and bring him back." Despite the anger management lessons he's been taking, when the Hulk is attacked, tranquilizer darts and bullets just bounce off him. He's only about 10 feet tall, but his shoulders are almost that wide. In closeups, especially, he looks grainy and disproportionate. After the first of three overlong action sequences, Bruce makes his way back to the States and almost back to Betty's arms, but he can't consummate the deal because any kind of excitement– not just anger– makes his red cells green. General Ross envisions a Hulk vs. Hulk scenario and starts pumping gamma rays into Blonsky. You needn't be intelligent enough to read comic books to know that will end badly, but if you do read them you probably know Blonsky will become the Abomination and have a showdown with the Hulk in Harlem (perhaps an attempt to compensate for the shortage of African American actors in the rest of the movie) in the final overlong action sequence. The other overlong action sequence occurs when Bruce and Betty are reunited on the Virginia college campus where she works [though it wasn't filmed in Virginia, and there's no "Culver University" in our fair state–editor]. They become lovers on the run, starting with a scene that must be intended as an homage to King Kong. The road leads to New York, where they meet Bruce's correspondent, the "more curious than cautious" Dr. Samuel Sterns (Tim Blake Nelson). In an interesting detail the earlier film left out, Bruce buys the biggest stretch pants he can find so he won't be naked when he expands to Hulk size. French director Louis Leterrier (Transporter 2) does a good job with the action but doesn't know when to quit and doesn't come up with many new ideas. Even after five years– or longer for the TV series and made-for-TV movies– there's a been-there-done-that feel to much of this enterprise. The effects are OK, the acting is OK, the screenplay is better than the one for Lee's film. The Incredible Hulk should please the hordes of young men and teenage boys who seem to want to see the same movie week after week under a different title, as long as it's loud and features plenty of CG mayhem.

March 2, 1987 To the Congress of the United States: I have reviewed the activities of United States Government departments and agencies during the calendar year 1986 related to the prevention of nuclear proliferation, and I am pleased to submit my annual report pursuant to Section 601(a) of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act of 1978 (Public Law 95 - 242). The report concludes that the United States continued to make significant progress during 1986 in its efforts to achieve its non-proliferation goals. A central objective of my Administration has been the prevention of the spread of nuclear explosives to additional countries. I intend to continue my pursuit of this goal with unflagging determination and a deep sense of personal commitment. The White House, March 2, 1987.

When we can’t have it all–and we never can–what’s worth keeping, and what worth letting go? That’s a tough question that Oracle, and all cloud customers, face in different respects this week. Oracle’s announcement this week of Oracle Application Development Framework [ADF] Essentials is a surprise I expected never to hear, for instance. Since its original incorporation thirty-five years ago, the company has always had a reputation for aggressive pricing and protection of its intellectual property. To adopt a “freemium” model model now for a product as important as this Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE, formerly J2EE) framework, and to base its own ADF Essentials on the open-source GlassFish application server, is a monumental shift. I think it’s a healthy one. As Michael Vizard points out this week, it’s another step in a larger progression for Oracle. Just a month ago, the company enhanced its GoldenGate product to support multiple relational database systems (RDBMSs), including competitors’. The old Oracle always pushed comprehensive, exclusive, highly-integrated sales, with as much licensing as possible flowing to Oracle itself. Now, the company is showing more willingness to incorporate building blocks from outside its own territory. If the pies of Oracle’s customers are bigger, maybe even shrinking portions will ultimately profit Oracle. Don’t confuse Oracle with a charity, of course. These shifts are relatively subtle, and their technical basis appears to be solid and even conservative. While GlassFish is open-source, for example, its effective governance as part of the Java ecosystem rests largely in the hands of Oracle affiliates. Ultimately, these shifts should promote better engineering, as more and more of our artifacts become based on standards that are freely available for examination and experimentation, or at least multiply-sourced. Finding the right balance Bernd Harzog also wrote this week about trade-offs in pointing out that our cloud purchases have to juggle “fast, cheap, or good”, and can’t have all three simultaneously. The Real User Monitoring Blog covered parts of the same territory this summer in reviewing the Amazon “derecho” outage at the end of June 2012. Amazon Web Service (AWS) is focused on driving down prices in the cloud: it’s not highlighting SLAs (service-level agreements) at all. Harzog is absolutely right to tabulate the realistic limits to what cloud customers can expect from different providers and technologic stacks. Harzog favors “one throat to choke” more than I do. He accurately describes the technical constraints AWS, Azure, OpenStack, KVM, and competitors exhibit. He then draws conclusions about vendor service in terms of “control”. My own emphasis is that we only get the agility and predictability in price we want when we give up parts of the control we’d other like. Information technology (IT) relies on trust and co-operation throughout our stacks. Just as a conventional business can only grow when its founder is able to delegate functions like bookkeeping, janitorial upkeep, retail sales, and so on, we in IT only make the most of the Cloud as we’re able to build on pieces outside our control. As with bookkeeping and other responsibilities, though, we need to be realistic about the hazards of reliance on those pieces, and put auditing systems in place to ensure the results. When a start-up founder requires his own approval of all purchases, he’s created an overload for himself; when he ignores accounting, he’s inviting embezzlement. Somewhere in the middle, there’s a healthy balance that ties trust to auditing and oversight systems. In a similar way, we achieve the agility and cost flexibility we want from the Cloud only when we can trust suppliers. A big part of that trust is to find the right balance. In coming weeks, we’ll look at the possibilities to keep control through performance measurement. Harzog is absolutely right to underline the importance of end-to-end results; we’ll return so on with more to say about application performance management (APM), especially in its end-to-end aspects.

On Jeannette’s visit, this is what we baked: Blueberry Muffins (Bread Bible) Banana Cake with sour cream ganache (Cake Bible) Perfect Peach Galette with Creme Anglaise Sourdough Pitas made with the left-over pizza dough (we made these into sandwiches) I had already made Struan Bread and a multi-seed bread (both sourdough) Of course we couldn’t eat it all so we gave the banana cake to Jeannette’s sister-in-law. We took a day trip to vist the local Scotch whisky distillery (Talisker on the Isle of Skye, for those interested) and we ate our sandwiches and a muffin sitting in front of the distillery by the waters edge with the whisky fumes wafting in the breeze. J’s husband made flasks of Illy coffee just to make sure we were happy - he had had 3 sample tots of whisky so he was happy anyway! We then went on to visit Dunvegan Castle (seat of the Clan MacLeod) before having dinner at the local Bistro (I know, I know, but it’s actually pretty good!). As they say in Scotland, “Haste ye back”, Jeannette & hubby!

Full Show Index Advertise With Us Write For Us Survivor: Vanuatu – Why Rory Lostby David Bloomberg -- 11/05/2004 View Printable version of this article Rory thought he was the cat who swallowed the canary. Little did he know that he was actually the canary. He thought he had made it through the long and trying time among the women, and was finally going to be rescued by the men. Instead, the men were dumbfounded and Rory was sent packing. What happened? Why did Rory lose? The answer might seem obvious, and Rory himself said it was because he was a victim of a battle of the sexes. But on Survivor, rarely are things quite that simple. After all, there were two other guys who could have been voted off (Sarge is not included, since he had immunity) – Rory was not picked at random. So to find out the answer, we need to look back at What Vanuatu Survivors Should Have Learned to see what went wrong. The first rule, of course, is to scheme and plot. Rory found himself in a good position early on because he joined up with the elder men. This was especially helpful for him because he apparently annoyed pretty much everybody around him at camp. If he had not been in a solid alliance, I strongly suspect Rory would have been one of the first couple guys to go. The fact that he was in such an alliance allowed him to keep moving forward despite his best efforts to blow his chances in the game (the walks alone, eating food by himself, arguing with the others, etc.). However, the fact that he had somewhat separated himself also made it an easy call when Sarge had to pick which tribe he wanted to be on. Hmmm – the one with his closest allies or the one with the two guys who had annoyed him the most? No contest – so Rory ended up in an extreme minority position on Yasur. At that point, it looked like he was pretty much doomed. Luckily for him, Bubba screwed up (see Why Travis Lost), so he stuck around another three days. Then Ami got it in her head that Lisa was making a play (see Why Lisa Lost) and he had another few days. He seemed to think he stuck around the latter time because of his speeches and playing on sympathy. But please. He stuck around because he was strong and because Ami wanted somebody she viewed as competition gone, while simultaneously drawing several weaker players to her side. So no matter what he thought, it wasn’t really his scheming and plotting that helped him survive through Yasur. Once on the merged tribe, Rory immediately began scheming again, professing his continued loyalty to the men and aiming them right at Ami. Frankly, it was a good plan. It was the right plan. But it didn’t work. I don’t think Rory had to worry about scheming and plotting too much. He went back to his original alliance because he had been told, in no uncertain terms, that he was not a part of the Yasur alliance. He was not a woman, and that was that. Frankly, they should have probably not been quite so blunt about it – after all, they might have needed him if Twila and Julie actually had switched sides. But in any event, Rory had no reason to stay with the Yasur group, so as I mentioned, he was correct in going back to the men. Rory failed, however, in pretending to be nice. He didn’t get along with the men. He didn’t get along with the women. I’m not sure exactly who he did get along with (well, maybe Bubba, for the most part). Even if the men had swung Twila and Julie to their side, I strongly suspect Rory would have been the first of their alliance gone, just because he seemed to have the ability to annoy people. While I don’t think this was a major reason for him leaving at this point, I do think it played into it. Ami didn’t like Rory, and she was calling the shots. The fourth rule says to not let emotions control you. Rory did let his emotions get out of hand several times throughout the game. But each time he managed to reel them back in. Sometimes, he even used it to his advantage, as in his speech after Bubba was voted out. Still, those emotions bubbling through were part of the reason Ami didn’t like him, and it didn’t seem that Leann was too thrilled by him either. None of this helped his cause. What really hurt him, though, was the same thing that saved him the previous weeks. Rory was strong in challenges. He was kept around by Yasur in part because he led them to two victories and gave them a fighting chance in other challenges. However, as soon as the merge occurred, that strength became a threat.1 2 Next--> View Printable version of this article

The Real Housewives of New Jersey stars are reportedly thinking about trying for baby #5 so they can fulfill their dream of having a son – and already have his name picked out! Teresa herself told InTouch's new issue, “Joe really wants a boy. And he said we should get a surrogate to carry it!” A show "insider" also tells the magazine that Teresa had been against expanding their brood, but she's ready to cave because it's what Juicy so desperately wants. “He is really pressuring her. If that’s what he wants, she may just give in.” CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE! A second insider says that not only is it pressure from Joe, but jealousy is playing a part in the decision. Teresa has been allegedly jealous ever since sister-in-law Melissa Gorga gave birth to her brother Joe's first son. “After her brother’s wife had Gino, Teresa was dying for a boy, too.” “Teresa’s happy with her family the way it is; she loves her four girls.” Even though she's happy with their family as-is, she is planning to name a son “Franco, after my father-in-law.” TELL US – DO YOU THINK IT'S TRUE? WILL TERESA CAVE AND TRY FOR BABY #5 EVEN THOUGH JOE MAY BE HEADING TO JAIL THIS YEAR? Photo Credit: Joel Ginsburg/WENN.com

The 41-year-old showed of her new slimmer body in a blue two piece bikini over the weekend as she visited Hollywood, Florida. Renee, who was on vacay with her 17-year-old son AJ Pagan, was pictured lounging at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino on Sunday. Renee has recently spoken out against plastic surgery after experiencing some serious life-threatening complications following hers last summer. If you recall, Renee lost six pints of blood and had to stay in the hospital for over 15 days during what she has described as, her near death experience. More bikini photos of Renee are below!

Can you guess who has the most excuses when it comes to the challenges… Yup, Jade is the winner! Throughout the show she will tell you how fabulous she is and why she should be the winner. However, talk is cheap, Jade. The viewing audience has not seen her step up to the plate consistently. To make matters worse, she has now added relationship adviser to her modeling credentials. We'll talk more about Jade’s many excuses later, but now let’s talk about her new job as Nnenna’s love relationship adviser. As you know Nnenna has a needy boyfriend, John. Just listen to his telephone conversation with Nnenna… “Whhhhyyyyyy can’t you love meeeeeeeee. You're ripping my heart out.” Is this pathetic or what! He continues, “Hooooow do you think I feel every night without you? I know, I know something is happening.” Good Grief, how did a strong, intelligent, future chemist such as Nnenna get hooked up with a pathetic excuse for a boy. Where is his mama because Nnenna is not it! Throughout the entire show Nnenna is on the telephone trying to convince her boyfriend that she is being true to him and that no cheating is going on. As Nnenna tries to console him, Jade passes her notes on what to say to John. Sounds like John needs a hobby or some friends. Nnenna knows this is a once in a lifetime shot and if John cannot support the present, there is no future for the relationship. For the next challenge instead of Tyra telling the girls what to do, she shows them by pretending she is not feeling well and then faints. The girls are shocked and frightened as they try to revive her and get help. Then all of a sudden Tyra gets up with a big smile on her face and starts to laugh. She reveals to the girls that what just happened is called an improve. She explained that the girls must commit to a scene and give it their all so that it is believable to everyone. Tyra did such a good job that Furonda was still a little shaken up and started to cry at the thought of Tyra lying on the floor. Tyra told the girls to go and meet their improve coach and make her proud. After the improve class, the girls were able to put their skills to the test by doing a little improve with Nick Cannon, executive producer of the Wildin’ Out television show. The girls were a little shy and uncomfortable but tried their best. In one game Jade was told to ask the other girl a question on a particular subject and Jade could not do it. When she lost twice she said, “I needed more direction.” No Jade, you needed to listen and follow directions. Why would Miss Jade, the supermodel that has been undiscovered by the modeling industry need directions? She already knows every thing because she tells us constantly. The winner of the improve was Furonda who won a role on the hit television show, Veronica Mars. She also won a spot for a Public Service Announcement for HIV awareness and was allowed to select a friend to help her. When Jade volunteer to do the spot, Furonda chose Nnenna. Furonda confided in the camera that Jade was not her friend and would not have chosen her to share the prize. Lucky for the girls who did badly with the improve to have a second chance. The next challenge was to do a commercial for Cover Girl Cosmetics. The girls would have two chances to get it right and say at the end, “Easy Breezy Beautiful Cover Girl. Can you say that tongue twister three times in a row? Can you say it at least once…. nope…not our girls. Read on… Mollie could not think of what to say on the spot and she just had an improve class. Furonda was feeling good after winning the improve challenge and taping an episode of Veronica Mars. Her commercial was bubbly and over the top. It was not great but she did her thang. Brooke was awful, Danielle could not focus and held the product incorrectly. Jade was very confident that she would nail the commercial because she is an experienced undiscovered supermodel. Well, Miss Jade came walking through the party as if it was a runway show. She did a twist, turned and waved her hand as if she was a beauty pageant winner. When she had to speak about the product, she did not know what to say and blew it completely. Then she had the nerve to say, “I needed just a little bit more direction.” Does Mr. Jay look like a crutch to you? Aren't you the undiscovered supermodel that already knows everything? Jade’s problem is that she thinks she knows so much that she cannot hear anyone’s direction. Jade cannot believe she is competing against younger girls who know nothing about modeling. As you can see, Jade knows nothing about modeling either. As the judges looked at the girls commercials, no one really stood out. They felt Sara has no presence, Danielle’s accent sounds funny, Furonda was too animated, Brooke was a babbling brook, Nnenna was not nice to her guests in the commercial, Mollie Sue has no passion or feeling, Leslie looks great in commercials, not in print, Joanie lost her sophistication and Jade looked very draggish with all that twisting and turning. Ultimately, the bottom two were Jade and Mollie Sue. The judges felt Jade plays the blame game and they don’t like her attitude. Both of her commercial takes were bad. “Jade, you don’t know it all. That is why you are here,” says Tyra The judges felt that Mollie is too robotic for this industry therefore, Mollie Sue was sent home. Mollie was very upset and could not believe she went home before Jade. Now there are eight contestants. Who will be kicked off next? See you next week.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) announced on Wednesday the Project Runway fashion guru as its 2009 Man of the Year and the new American Idol judge as its 2009 Woman of the Year. Gunn received the honor for narrating the organization's video about the suffering of animals who are slaughtered for their pelts, as well as ridding Project Runway of fur-themed design challenges and eliminating fur at Liz Claiborne, where he works as chief creative officer. "Wearing fur is like wearing a big sign reading, 'I'm in favor of inflicting cruelty and pain on animals as a fashion statement,'" Gunn recently told The Los Angeles Times. "Unspeakable torture is inflicted on dogs, cats, bunnies, raccoons, foxes, minks, and myriad trapped, helpless creatures in the name of fashion -- yes, dogs and cats." DeGeneres was recognized for using her The Ellen DeGeneres Show to raise awareness about animal issues through various segments -- including making a vegan pizza with Wolfgang Puck, talking with Dr. Neal Barnard about the health benefits of a vegan diet, and discussing the everyday abuse of animals on factory farms with "Eating Animals" author Jonathan Safran Foer. In addition, DeGeneres' website also provides information on how to avoid animal cruelty in everyday life.

Brazilian Butt Lift: StoriesWrite a Review Brazillian Butt Lift - posted 3 years ago - updated 3 years ago - Worth It - Cost: $5,000 - Mel T. Ortega, MD (Miami, FL) I am 2 days post op and am in some pain but it is... - 19 Dec 2009 I am 2 days post op and am in some pain but it is manageable. The worst pain is from my arm. I got cellulitis from the IV (it loosened when they flipped me) and meds got under my skin. Since you need your arms to drag yourself in and out of bed, it reallly hurts. The doctors tell me that it will go away with antibiotics. Still really swollen. Can't wait for next week to see if there is more contour. Right now my behind is HUGE but my abdomen and stomach are swollen also. I changed the garment because the one the doctor gave did not cover my entire back. There is also pain in my lower back. I think tha is more from laying on my stomach though. THe arch is almost unbearable. We will see.... Well almost 2 weeks out and I am feeling pretty... - 29 Dec 2009 Well almost 2 weeks out and I am feeling pretty good. I did have a huge issue with my IV infiltration (left arm swollen and rashed all over) but my body contour is AMAZING! I haven't put on "real" clothing as yet, mostly sweats and yoga pants. I tried on a pair of shorts and the were TIGHT over my behind! I am ecstatic about the outcome and can't wait to see everything once all the swelling goes down on my lower back. I was afraid that my butt would be too big but I am satisfied and hope it doesn't shrink too much more. I stiil am not sitting, lots of laying on my sides and belly and kneeling on cushions to eat! All doctors and sites say different things about how and when so I am being cautious and taken the recommendations of the longer time. I have changed garments twice now (as the swelling goes down, I get a smaller size). They are expensive so you may want to start off with a super tight one but I was afraid that the tension would be as bad as sitting, not too mentiom breathing! I do have some bruising on my inner thighs, torso and buttock but nothing like I expected. I am hoping that the skin on my stomach will tighten more (the doctor is convinced it will). I go back in 2 1/2 weeks for follow-up. The staff have been great in taking care of my concerns. I have had 2 extra visits to take care of my arm and am happy with the report the doctor has with me. Will give updates as I go... 14 days today! I feel great. The bruising from my... - 31 Dec 2009 14 days today! I feel great. The bruising from my inner thighs are almost gone. I am still waiting for swelling to subside. I can definitely see a difference in the volume of my butt however, the shape pretty much remains the same. I think I should have asked for liposuction to the back of my thighs, just below the lutt cheeks to enhance the shape. My Doctor: Mel T. Ortega, MD Thorough and down to earth. Makes you feel very comfortable. I was able to have 3 consultations with him to make sure that I was making the right decision.

Botox: StoriesWrite a Review No Eyebrow Lift Effect with Botox - New Zealand - posted 3 years ago - updated 2 years ago - Not Worth It - Cost: $200 - New Zealand Hi I had botox for the first time 8 days ago to... - 25 Nov 2009 Hi I had botox for the first time 8 days ago to lift the eyebrows as mine are hereditarily low. She injected the botox in three places. I am feeling very disappointment as I can see no improvement or lift in the area at all. I am young (32) and have great skin so not sure why the results aren't better. I had it done because I don't like my low lying eyebrows. Only cons so far, I paid $200 to get it done with no results so far. Very disappointed. I thought a few days ago that there was some lift there but now I really don't think there is any at all. Do you think it still could happen for me? or did botox fail? My Doctor: name not provided Because I am to date not happy with the results.

Take the Best Road Trip Ever How to check your tires' air pressure, avoid car sickness, and more. How to Avoid Car SicknessUnderstand why you’re carsick. Motion sickness happens when the brain gets conflicting signals from your inner ears, eyes, joints, and muscles. The inner ears and the skin receptors sense that you’re moving, but if you are reading or have your eyes fixed on an object in the car, your eyes can’t detect that the car is moving. One of the main symptoms is nausea, says Gervais Fréchette, M.D., a travel-medicine specialist in New York City and San Francisco. Counteract nausea by looking outside. Says Fréchette, “Look at the horizon or the distant scenery,” which helps your body send the proper messages to your brain. Get kids to do the same by playing car games, like the license-plate game or I Spy. And, says Fréchette, “position a car seat so that the child can see outside.” Avoid caffeine, nicotine, and sodium. All three can impair circulation, interfering with the body’s ability to sense movement. Ask your doctor about medications. She may suggest Dramamine, Bonine, or Marezine. But skip the wristbands and electronic devices that are claimed to prevent motion sickness. “There’s no scientific data to support them,” says Fréchette. Most Popular Galleries “Believe it or not, it's easy to make charitable contributions without spending a dime.

Sell, Sell, Sell As highlighted in our last Blog, Internet Sales Figures are not only exceeding all expectations but are still flourishing. Bargains, deals and money saving promotions are just some of the factors that will drive online sales even further so make sure the Online Shop on your business website has plenty of options, teasers and deals to encourage maximum sales. You'll all be aware that the next big shopping season is approaching fast. Sorry to do this but yes, Christmas is only 12 weeks away!! We’ve all seen decorations and gift displays in shops as early as September so its never too soon to start thinking about maximising the sales potential of Christmas. Now is the time to make sure all your products are upto date, new products are in place, special offers are highlighted, prices are competitive, etc., etc., etc., Your Reason8 Shopping Basket system makes it very easy for you to manage your stock and make sure that your customers have plenty of choices and offers. You will hopefully have created a group or groups of items, so now lets look at the options you can add. Click Step 4, then click the green “Edit” button next to the Group you want to work on. Here you‘ll see all the items in your group and on each you have a choice to: view, edit or delete. Click the “edit” button next to your first item. If you’re still happy with the basic information, click “Next” and “Next” again. You’ll now be asked if you want to “create another item?” Click “No” Now, you’ll be asked if you want to “Sell your items?” Click “Yes”. You’ll now enter the Shopping Basket Customisation Wizard. Choose your first item from the drop down menu. First Option - Give your customers a choice Click “Yes” to this option if your products have a choice of colours, sizes, styles or types. You’ll see a description box where you can enter a short customised message to tell your customers what they need to do. Then you can add up to 2 different options. Option 1 offers the additional facility to enter a “New Price”, so for instance, if you have a product, which comes in a choice of sizes at different prices, simply enter the sizes and their varying prices into the boxes provided. For options such as colour, which don’t affect the price use Option 2. Click Next to see how your item looks like with the new choices. Again, if you’re not happy, simply click back and make some changes. If you’re happy, click next. Second Option –“Offer other items at the same time” When a client has made the decision to buy, now is the perfect time to maximise sales. When a client reaches the checkout why not offer them other products that are compatible with the product they are buying. E.g. if a client is buying an item of clothing – this is a great opportunity to sell them a complete outfit! If you can take advantage of this option, click “Yes”. Again, start by entering a short customised message to persuade your customers to take the extra item(s). Choose the relevant item (s) from the drop down box, enter the price – at this stage you can offer a discounted price if you wish, to encourage the customer to purchase the extra item at the same time as their original choice. Finally, choose whether you want your customers to simply tick a box to add one item or if you want to give them the choice of purchasing a quantity of the item. Handy Tip - Don’t go crazy on the extra items you offer... We all know how annoying it can be when a persistent and desperate sales assistant tries to push you to buy stuff you don’t need. It can be a real turn off so only offer a small selection of most relevant items. Offering discounts to customers if they buy more than one item is a proven sales motivator. In this section you can create ways of 'packaging' your items into quantity bands so that the more they buy the more they save. For example; customers purchasing between 1-5 items pay the normal price. 5-10 Items can be set at a lower price and above 10 items at a further discounted price. The set up is down to you. You can also add a customised message to explain how the discount works and encourage customers to buy more. Warning – If you set bulk discount prices here, they will override any “New Prices” you may have entered in the First or Second options. For example, you may have set a different price for a different size or a reduced price for an item purchased at the same time. These will be overridden by the Bulk Discount Option. At the bottom of each item view, customers are provided with your phone number and a link to your contact page so that they can contact you if they have any questions. Another great way for you to maximise sales and offer that all important customer service.

NEW YORK (AP) -- New York City Police have discovered a truckload of untaxed cigarettes after pulling over the driver for a traffic violation. The U-Haul truck had a covered license plate, and officers pulled over the driver around 12:30 a.m. Friday in Brooklyn. Police say the driver had a suspended license, and during inventory of the truck police found 58,000 packs of untaxed cigarettes. The driver was with his brother, and both men have been charged with possessing untaxed cigarettes. Police are investigating where they were coming from and where they were planning to go. The sale of untaxed cigarettes is a lucrative illegal business in New York City, where a pack costs upward of $10 due to a steep tax.

Bealer is charged with murder in the death of 14- year-old Marysa Nichols, whose body was found between Red Bluff Union High School and Baker Road Feb. 28. Bealer was in court at 8 a.m. Tuesday where Ken Miller, who was assigned at the March 6 arraignment, declared a conflict. Ron McIvor was next up to be assigned a case, but declared a conflict due to a potential issue with a witness. Christopher Logan declared a conflict on behalf of Diane Martin-Logan who was next in line to receive a public defender case, citing the same conflict as McIvor. As Tehama County Superior Court Judge John Garaventa explained the proceedings and that the court would return at 1 p.m. to continue its search for an attorney to serve as defense, he asked Bealer if he understood. Not really, Bealer said. I don't understand why I'm being charged with murder when there is just a photo with a kid walking behind me. Bealer was referring to a Feb. 26 surveillance video that showed him walking from Douglas Street into the school parking lot about a minute before Nichols followed the same route. Police identified Bealer March 1 as a person of interest in the investigation. Bealer went to the Red Bluff Police After interviewing him for several hours, police charged him with murder. At the 1 p.m. hearing, two more alternate public defenders, Kathryn Thompson and Laura Woods declined to take on the case. Thompson said she did not have the time available to properly represent Bealer while Woods said she had a conflict due to issues she had discussed with Garaventa in the judges chambers. Garaventa, to clarify the statement, said only the procedures of the case had been discussed. While there are no alternate public defenders available, Garaventa said he will contact Shaun Northam, a former Tehama County Deputy District Attorney, to check the possibility of his taking the case. Northam worked in the District Attorney's Office in the early 2000s before moving to Sacramento County, where he worked as a criminal defense lawyer, District Attorney Gregg Cohen said. Northam does work with Muto and Muto, a Red Bluff law firm, assisting with Child Protective Services cases, Cohen said. Bealer will appear in court at 9 a.m. today, however, if Northam is unable to take the case, there are other options, Cohen said. The next option would most likely be to contact local private attorneys, he said. If a local attorney is found, the court would enter a contract in the same manner it would for a public defender, Cohen said. Bealer was initially arraigned on multiple cases on March 6. Bealer was arraigned on the charge of one count of open murder, which can be charged as felony murder. It carries a sentence of 25 years to life with the option of a special circumstance request for death penalty, Cohen said. The other options are first degree murder, which carries a sentence of 25 to life and second degree murder, which carries a sentence of 15 years to life, he said. In addition to the murder charge, there were seven other cases Bealer was appearing for, Garaventa said. Those cases include possession of a methamphetamine smoking device, second degree burglary and receiving stolen property; and possession of a controlled substance. The case is still awaiting results from the department of justice and final reports from all involved law enforcement agencies, Cohen said. I will be meeting with the team of investigators this afternoon to discuss it further, Cohen said Tuesday. He has been charged with murder and we will go forward with that case. It is up to him and his lawyer to dispel his confusion (on the murder charge). For cases involving a murder, the process involved can take up to a year, sometimes longer, Cohen said.

These couples waited a (long) while before getting married. They spill what made them finally take the plunge. "I met Mark when I was nearing 40 and had already decided that I was going to pursue having kids on my own. Once I found the right guy, though, we tried to get pregnant first and postponed marriage. By the time we got engaged, we had two children, and a lot of people were surprised, since we already referred to each other as husband and wife. But I've always been moved by listening to couples proclaim their commitment in front of their loved ones, and I wanted that experience too. Almost nine years after we met, I got it!" --PAMELA FERDINAND, 47, CHICAGO "We waited 16 years to get married. He's a touring musician and he's gone for months at a time; I was busy advancing my public relations career. But whenever we reunited, it was like we'd just started dating again! A year ago, we suddenly realized we had everything we'd been waiting for, and I walked down the aisle to his band's lead singer playing an acoustic version of U2's "All I Want Is You." We never would have been able to afford our dream wedding 16 years ago, or the house we bought right after." --DENISE KOVALEVICH, 34, KING OF PRUSSIA, PA "After a year of dating in high school, we went to college in separate cities, then went on to live and work in different states. It was long-distance love for 11 years before we settled together in Chicago and got married. Our separation helped our communication--we started off by talking about everything, and developed a relationship that wasn't just about being physically together. Now we're celebrating two years of marriage and 14 years of being best friends." --CAMILLE EL-AMIN, 30, CHICAGO Where editors and experts in the field of sex and relationships weigh in on the complicated (and fun!) area of married sex.

The Coast Mountains are on the Pacific Ocean coastline of British Columbia, Canada. Rising abruptly from the sea, they have a huge influence on weather patterns, trapping much of the on-shore moisture and causing the heavy rainfall which nourishes the huge “rainforest” areas and the mild winter temperatures. This scene was taken in the area just north of Howe Sound, not far from Britannia Beach. August 29, 2005 Sony DSCF828 camera

We love our tees and hoodies so much we could talk about them all day, but that’d be a bit weird. So we’ll just say that we’re immensely proud of the quality of all our garments and the super futuristic technology that creates our unique t-shirts and hoodie prints.

The Importance of Proper Packaging Packaging is important for both wholesalers and retailers. The products you sell will have a definite effect on the type of packaging you will need to use. A company that sells nothing but soft goods will need to rely on different packaging than a company selling flammable products—or even electronics equipment. The packaging a company uses adds to the company’s “brand” and provides distinguishing characteristics. Namely, a customer does not want to do business with a company whose products arrive in damaged packages. It doesn’t matter whether a customer is ordering address labels or a drum of caustic chemicals—it should still arrive in a condition conducive to proper care during shipment. If your company ships a great deal of toxic substances—or even just liquid products—you will more than likely use a substantial number of drums for your packaging. While you can certainly choose to ship products in smaller quantities such as in one-litre drums, you will save shipping costs for both your company and your customers by shipping in larger quantities. Instead of using bottles or smaller packaging, you can select a four-litre acetate drum for shipment of some of your bulk liquid products. Purchasing the containers themselves in bulk will also save you money compared to purchasing the drums individually. Another thing to keep in mind when you are looking at packaging supplies is how much of each your company uses on a daily basis. The amount of packaging supplies you need will allow you to make the right decision about purchases. You don’t want to store more than you will use within a short period of time because it is not cost-effective. However, at the same time you want to take advantage of minimum quantity discounts. While most companies would easily use a supply of 100 of any kind of containers within a fairly short period of time, it may not use 500 of any one container whether it’s a drum, bottles, tins, or even cylinders. How does a company make a choice regarding packaging supplies? It is essential to look over your current inventory and past shipping experience. It is also important to review your shipping experience globally since international shipping requires handling products in a different way than those you are shipping domestically. It doesn’t matter if you are sending soft goods or chemicals; international shipping has different rules and regulations. You also must learn the shipping requirements of the country where you are shipping since these may differ from the regulations you must follow for domestic shipping. For companies that import wines, you can choose from several different shipment methods. Red Fish Marketing offers a 3-carrier wooden wine box, a double-hinged lid wine box and a wooden cylinder for shipping one bottle at a time or for extra protection. All of these packaging supplies are important for both the shipping and receiving company. While it may not be important to the shipper who sends products F.O.B. Destination, it is certainly important to the company that will be in receipt of those goods. The company who ships its products F.O.B. Shipping Point will be more concerned about products leaving their shipping destination, but no matter which method a company uses it is essential for the products to arrive in undamaged condition in order to maintain a good rapport between shipper and receiver. For those products that require sealing with ribbon, there are also many different styles and colours available. You can choose printed or unprinted based on your preference. The important thing here is making sure you choose the type of ribbon that meets your packaging needs, whether it is ordinary ribbon or sticky. What you need will depend on what you are shipping and the necessary packaging requirements of your location and the receiving location. This may differ even with domestic shipping and among your customers, so you want to make certain when you get new customers you educate yourself in their packaging requirements. It is not always up to the shipper to decide how they will ship products—if you are unwilling to bend for customer requirements, you will quickly lose customers to competitors. In addition to packaging materials you can also purchase Epoxy labels for many different purposes including cars, doors and for use on your shipping packages. These labels are available from Redfish Marketing in minimum quantities of 250, so you want to ascertain how often you will use them before you place your order. That is not to say you should not order adhesive labels unless you use them frequently, but you should base the size of your order on the frequency of use. If your company uses these labels frequently you should order more than the minimum quantity in order to save not only shipping costs, but also to make certain you always have enough on hand to handle your short-term needs. Packaging requirements will differ from customer to customer, so it is essential to always know what your customers need. It is also essential to be flexible in your own shipping procedures so you can accommodate those of your customers. For instance, if you ordinarily ship everything F.O.B. Destination but your customer requirements are F.O.B. Shipping Point, you may lose a customer if you are unwilling to accommodate those needs. Customers may also have specific requirements for packaging during shipping such as specific ribbon, drums or packaging of products in canisters and tins. If your company is unable to meet the specific needs of customers, you must make that very clear from the beginning. Your customer’s needs should always come ahead of everything else, and that means making certain you always have the proper shipping and packaging supplies in stock to handle even rush orders. Never allow shipping supplies to deplete so that you are unable to ship customers who may require rush orders. Packaging supplies are an essential part of your business and should always be available to meet current and short-term future needs.

Mummies have been objects of horror and fascination in popular culture since the early 1800s at least — over a century before Boris Karloff portrayed an ancient Egyptian searching for his lost love in the 1932 film “The Mummy.” Public “unwrappings” of mummified human remains performed by both showmen and scientists heightened the fascination, but also helped develop the growing science of Egyptology. Margaret Murray, third from left, and team after unwrapping Khnum-Nakht Dr. Kathleen Sheppard an historian from the Missouri University of Science and Technology argues this point in her latest article entitled “Between Spectacle and Science: Margaret Murray and the Tomb of the Two Brothers” in the December issue of the journal Science in Context. A public spectacle While mummy unwrappings served as public spectacles that objectified exotic artefacts, they were also scientific investigations that sought to reveal medical and historical information about ancient life. On Thursday, 7 May 1908, The Manchester Guardian reported the unveiling of human remains in the Chemistry Theatre at Manchester University. As the “peering collection” of men and women looked on: “[the ancient mummy] Khnumu Nekht was bared of his wrappings and brought once more to the light of day. . . . Near the body the linen sheets had rotted, and they fell to pieces at a touch. The bones, however, were more or less perfect. There were traces of flesh on them. It was on the whole a gruesome business, and one or two people left early. (“Mummy of Khnumu Nekht” 1908)” Margaret Alice Murray, was leading the “gruesome business” at the front of the theatre, wearing a white pinafore apron and her hair neatly pinned back. A few notes survive from the unwrapping in the archives of the Manchester Museum. The only detailed report of the investigation, The Tomb of the Two Brothers, was published two years later and remains today one of the leading studies of the mummification processes and human remains of Middle Kingdom Egypt. Educating the public Sheppard says Egyptologist Margaret Murray, the first woman to publicly unwrap a mummy, sought to unravel the mysteries of ancient Egypt by exposing mummified human remains. She says Murray’s work is culturally significant because it is “poised between spectacle and science, drawing morbid public interest while also producing ground-breaking scientific work that continues to this day.” Margaret Murray and team unwrapping Khnum-Nakht in the Chemistry Auditorium, University of Manchester. Mummy Unwrapping Parties "Nobody knows when mummy unwrapping parties first started, but royalty used to throw them quite often. Although mummy unwrapping ultimately went out of fashion, mummies never have." Mummy Unwrapping Parties were a very popular social event in Victorian England. After dinner the guests would retire to the parlor and the mummy would be unwrapped to reveal the contents and search for trinkets, which the guests would keep as party favors.

President Could, In Theory, Order Drone Strike Inside U.S., Holder Says 2013 03 06 By Krishnadev Calamur | NPR Attorney General Eric Holder has said in a letter to Sen. Rand Paul that the president could in an "entirely hypothetical" situation authorize the military to use lethal force within U.S. territory. The letter to Paul came in response to three inquiries the Kentucky Republican sent to John Brennan, President Obama’s nominee for CIA director. Paul’s letters asked if it was legal for the U.S. government to use lethal force, including in the form of drone strikes, on Americans inside the country. Here’s Holder’s response, in part: "As members of this Administration have previously indicated, the U.S. government has not carried out drone strikes in the United States and has no intention of doing so. As a policy matter, moreover, we reject the use of military force where well-established law enforcement authorities in this country provide the best means for incapacitating a terrorist threat. We have a long history of using the criminal justice system to incapacitate individuals located in our country who pose a threat to the United States and its interests abroad. Hundreds of individuals have been arrested and convicted of terrorism-related offenses in our federal courts. "The question you have posed is therefore entirely hypothetical, unlikely to occur, and one we hope no President will ever have to confront. It is possible, I suppose, to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate for the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States. For example, the President could conceivably have no choice but to authorize the military to use such force if necessary to protect the homeland in the circumstances of a catastrophic attack like the ones suffered on December 7, 1941, and September 11, 2001.

Welcoming Italy's [ Images ] decision to send back marines charged with the killing of two fishermen, Kerala [ Images ] Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Friday said the development clearly established the fact that no country can question the sovereignty of India [ Images ]. Making a statement in the assembly, Chandy, whose Congress-led United Democratic Front government came under attack from the Left Democratic Front Opposition over the earlier decision of Italy not to send back the marines, said the Supreme Court order restraining the Italian ambassador from leaving the country was a rare action. "I am taking this opportunity to express gratitude to the Supreme Court, the Centre and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh [ Images ] for the firm stand they took on the issue," he said. Referring to the notice for the adjournment moved earlier this week in the assembly by the Opposition, blaming the Centre and the state governments for letting the marines leave the country, Chandy said, "The opposition even dragged the name of All India Congress Committee chief Sonia Gandhi [ Images ] into the matter". He recalled that on that day itself he, after talking to the prime minister, declared that the marines would be brought back to face trial. "The prime minister had assured that the diplomatic route would be used to bring the marines back," he said, adding, "The Centre was also of the view that diplomatic immunity was not a mechanism to challenge the sovereignty and judiciary of a country". The Supreme Court had on February 22 allowed the marines of Enrica Lexie ship Massimiliano Lattore and Salvatore Girnone to go to Italy for four weeks to vote in the election in their country based on the assurance of the Italian ambassador that they would return to India in the stipulated time. Last week, Italy informed India that the marines, charged with the murder of two fishermen off Kollam coast in February 2012, would not return to India to face trial, triggering protests and outrage in the state.

England have survived the worst of the group draws for the 2002 World Cup, but are still waiting to see the best of David Beckham and Michael Owen. The two men most in the spotlight before these finals have yet to fully live up to their reputations, with Beckham waiting to impose his authority in midfield and Owen failing to score. With a difficult second round clash looming on Saturday against Denmark, manager Sven-Goran Eriksson needs both men to recover their strength from a sterile but exhausting 0-0 draw with Nigeria in steamy Osaka on Wednesday. Skipper Beckham has clearly been pegged back by the broken foot which kept him out for seven weeks before their opening 1-1 draw with Sweden in group F, when he lasted only 63 minutes. The midfielder with a reputation for endless stamina admitted afterwards it was the first time in his career that his legs had simply "disappeared" from under him. Eriksson had even warned before facing Nigeria that Beckham was still "a little bit tired" after going the full 90 minutes in their 1-0 win over Argentina. "But I guess playing so often in these conditions, with the pressure, I think it's the same for all teams -- you can't be fresh 100 percent," Eriksson said. The captain's struggle to hit top form has also been reflected in his trademark free-kicks which have more often flown wide of the target, than hit it, let alone beat the keeper. However, England fans can take heart from the fact that even below his best, Beckham has already played an important part in his team's progress to the last 16. They will not need reminding that it was his penalty which defeated the Argentines and his corner that was headed home by Sol Campbell against the Swedes. He also defended the overall performance against Nigeria, saying: "There will be cynics talking about the way we've played and that we haven't scored goals in open play yet. "But if people look at the group, and the Argentina game, where we played well, there was always going to be a come-down... But we're through." Up front, Owen has shown plenty of willing. But only one or two scoring chances a game have come his way and each time the tight marking accorded to a European Footballer of the Year has led to the keeper's gloves or an outstretched leg blocking his shots. "Obviously, I'd like to score, but if we make progress and I don't score, I'm fine," Owen said after the group phase ended. "I'll know that I've made a contribution." That contribution so far has been to win the penalty against Argentina. On Saturday, England fans will be hoping for a bit more.

Mrs. Daniel was born Jan. 3, 1930 in Throckmorton County, Texas. She graduated high school at 16, got a college degree and a teaching credential in three years, and walked into a Texas high school classroom on a day's notice as a 20-year-old teacher. That was two days after she got married. She taught in Texas from 1950 until she moved to Redlands in 1954 and became the speech and drama teacher at Redlands Junior High. During that time Joan Baez and "Little Bobby Hodges," (who recently retired as the superintendent of Redlands Unified School District) were her students. Baez later babysat Mrs. Daniel's children. In 1960 she began teaching drama and stagecraft at Redlands High School. In 1980 she became a counselor there, and held that post until she retired in 1990. In the 1990s she and Harriet Talbert ran Campaign for Clock and successfully got the campus' Clock Auditorium refurbished. As a result, her portrait hangs in the lobby. She was so proud of her autonym, Old Lady Daniel, her name plate on her desk read "O.L.D." and her license plate was "O Lady D." Her daughter Jamie says Mrs. Daniel was a dedicated "force of nature" who touched so many Terriers that Jamie found a whole container full of wedding invitations and birth announcements from former students. "She took six weeks off when I was born and a semester when my brother was born, and that was it," Jamie said. "She taught for 40 years." In the 1960s she directed plays on campus for the Black Student Union. She served on the board of the Vista Guidance Center, and from 1984 to 1990, the Montessori Board. Her awards included Outstanding Teacher from the Rotary Club in 1969, CRY-ROP Commitment to Vocational Education, Lyon's Club Citizen of the Year in 1981, Volunteer Award from the United Way in 1997 and Senior of Distinction from Plymouth Village in 2004. Mrs. Daniel got her undergraduate degree from North Texas State University, and 30 years later went to the University of Redlands for a Master's of Education, which she achieved in 1983. She was in the first class of Town & Gown Women of Distinction She loved to entertain and was a gourmet cook. "We have 10 tables that seat 10 people each, and the linens -- and she made them," Jamie said. Mrs. Daniel was a member of the Church of Religious Science in Redlands. In 2007 Mrs. Daniel moved to Somerford, where Jamie said the "caregivers loved her like she was their own mother." In addition to her daughter Jamie, who lives in Redlands with her husband Gary Watson, Mrs. Daniel is survived by a son and daughter-in-law Barton and Terri of Seattle; three grandchildren, Nathan (and Katy) Swift of Corona, Micah Swift of Corona, and Timothy Swift of Sacramento; her sister Mable Chambers of Glen Rose, Texas; and her ex-son-in-law Malcolm Swift of Corona. Services will be announced. The Neptune Society is handling arrangements. The family suggests donations to the Alzheimer's Association.

A little bit of this and a little bit of that ... I couldn't resists these cute chickens! These carefully hand printed - vintage designs - are unique fabrics (only 30 yards are printed in each colorway), on a cotton/poly (10%) blend to ensure paint stability. Purchased from EmilyMe (Etsy) a boutique vintage fabric store specializing in rare hand printed fabrics. And also bundle of fabrics found locally - some of these have been around for a while. From top to bottom: - Liberty of London Tana Lawn - floral print in pink - Simple Flower from the Sophie collection by Chez Moi for Moda - Lady Birds on Green Stripe - no details on the selvage - probably a Japanese import. - Pink flowers on White Background - light weight, almost a sheer fabric. No further details - Princess Rose by Lecien - Roses printed on a light green background with white polka dot. - Frolic in Citrus from the Hullabaloo range by Urban Chiks for Moda - Teal Flowers on Grey Stripe by Fumika Oishi - Made in Japan - Aunt Grace Polka Dots from the Collection of Judie Rothermel for Marcus Brothers

POPULATION CONTROL AND THE ENVIRONMENT The Copenhagen Climate talks are much more threatening than environmental schemers and scammers simply discussing regulations and taxes to reduce the world’s CO2 emissions. Although considered extremely controversial, some prominent attending organizations believe curbing population growth through contraception and abortion is key to fighting global warming.Major leftist groups such as “Friends of the Earth” and “Greenpeace” believe that simply limiting industrial and energy –generated Carbon Dioxide emissions is insufficient. Neither will eliminating use of fossil fuels adequately lower global warming. Jonathon Porritt, Chairman of both Great Britain’s “Sustainable Development Commission” and the “Green Party” said that we must alter our emphasis on curing illness to increasing contraception and abortion. He claims illness is not as effective in limiting Carbon Dioxide emissions as controlling population growth. Porritt said, “Think of the immense progress in population control we could get with a major flu epidemic or bold new plague”. If this approach seems perverted and foreign to our thinking, consider the recent commentary by Ellen Goodman, an American nationally syndicated columnist in New Jersey’s Asbury Park Press. Under the heading, “Globe being warmed by too many humans” she suggested that lightening the planet’s burden of human beings by instituting population controls can also widen the chances for women”. Environmental leftists seem adept at suppressing and manipulating scientific evidence, falsifying world climate data and becoming wealthy marketing carbon offsets. America must not fall victim to either a new World Order or financing foreign environmental obligations. Neither should we underestimate the intentions of those who advocate Euthanasia or Fatalistic Diagnosis as a means to reduce human exhalation of CO2.

Hi Mike, I had a set of Ultranons- BNCR. I was told by several sources that they could not be converted to PL without a complete rehousing. They were Zeiss Contax based. This was before the Red 1 came out and I sold them cheap on Ebay. Oh well. |« Previous Thread | Next Thread »|

Right. So with each passing day the news about the new Wonder Woman pilot is getting more and more awful. Perhaps I only think so because I’m biased, I don’t really know. There have been casting choices made that I don’t like. A picture of the logo has been released. And finally….we get to take a look at the new costume. All of it breaks my Wonder Woman lovin’ heart. First we had the script review. What I’ve read about so far leaves me unimpressed and worried about how it’s all going to shake out. Then came the character descriptions that listed several of the characters to be “blindly devoted” or “deeply devoted” to Diana. I wish I could get my hands on an actual copy of the script because at this point I can only go by what’s been written in the script reviews. It seems like they’re taking a once powerful, strong, passionate and independent woman and turning her into a day-dreaming soap-opera-y character. Not ok. Then we have to look at the casting. Adrianne Palicki is playing the coveted role but I can’t say much about her. I don’t really have an opinion of the actual actress because I’m not super familiar with her. Elizabeth Hurley has been cast as Wonder Woman’s nemesis which, ok….I guess. But then word came down about Cary Elwes being cast as well. Here’s his character description: [CEO HENRY DEMETER (now being called Henry Johns)] Male, open ethnicity, 40s. Acting CEO of Themyscira Industries. Grounded, intelligent and deeply devoted to Diana. He runs the day to day operations of the company and acts like an Uncle to Diana although he could be a possible love interest down the line…SERIES REGULAR. ASP. Hang on….let’s focus on this part: “….like an Uncle to Diana although he could be a possible love interest down the line“ Ummmm……is it just me or is that wrong on several levels? I don’t begrudge Cary Elwes. He’s the Dread Pirate Roberts for crying out loud. But aside from The Princess Bride, he tends to cheese up his other films. ESPECIALLY if he has to do any sort of American accent (I’m looking at you Twister and Days of Thunder). He was great on the couple of episodes of Psych he was on, but I have to draw the line. Last week we got a look at the new logo. I don’t much care for it either. I know it sounds like I’m harping on everything about this show before it’s even done filming because well, to be frank, I am. I will reserve final judgment for when the pilot airs. But for now I can only go with what I’m given. Observe the logo: Ok, maybe it’s the font I don’t like. I can’t really put my finger on it. But if that wasn’t enough, on Friday Entertainment Weekly released the first image of Adrianne Palicki in the actual re-imagined Wonder Woman costume and oh my God if Twitter didn’t light up like wildfire about it. I’m obviously behind the mark here, but I like to take my time and let things marinate before I post about it. So here’s the image: The costume comes complete with headband, gauntlets and lasso which are all vital pieces. The corset piece is fine. I mean, it looks like her boobs could fall out at any moment, but the corset itself I’m ok with. I’m even semi-ok with the painted on silicone looking pants. Actually no I’m not ok with the pants. Every time I look at them I cringe a little bit more. And I’m definitely not ok with the blue boots. They need to be red. End of story. I realize that in the comics her costume was updated (again) but going forward it looks like they may head back to the standard costume. I don’t see why they couldn’t do that here. I guess what it really boils down to is the difference in the character. That’s what really steams my clams. Wonder Woman should be portrayed as a strong female character. She really needs to look more like this: Now, THAT image shows a woman who could probably kick your ass. I don’t get the same feeling from the previous image. Like I said, I’ll reserve final judgment until the pilot airs. And to be honest nothing would make me more happy than for me to have to come back and eat crow because that would mean it was good. Of course I’ll be posting my thoughts whatever they may be. How do you feel about the new costume. Did they get it right or miss the mark completely? One of the other film writers that I follow on Twitter posted this picture to his feed on Friday. Just thought I’d share because A) I dig this costume, and B) this chick looks the part.Adrianne Palicki, Cary Elwes, David E. Kelley, Elizabeth Hurley, Entertainment Weekley, New Wonder Woman Costume, Wonder Woman

The ETRAX CRIS is a series of CPUs designed and manufactured by Axis Communications for use in embedded systems The name is an acronym of the chip's features: Ethernet , Token Ring is - C ode Reduced Instruction Set . Token ring support has been taken out from the latest chips as it has become obsolete. Types of chips The TGA-1, developed in 1986, was a communications transceiver for the AS400 The CGA-1 was just a performance improvement over the TGA-1. In 1993, by introducing 10 MBit Ethernet and Token Ring controllers, the name ETRAX was born. The ETRAX-4 had improved performance than previous models, along with a SCSI The ETRAX 100 features a 10/100 MBit Ethernet Controller (hence the name), along with ATA and Wide SCSI In the year 2000, the ETRAX 100LX design added an MMU, as well as USB, synchronous serial and SDRAM support, and boosted the CPU performance up to 100 MIPS. Unlike devices with no MMU, it can run a Linux kernel with no modifications to the Linux memory management code. - A 32 bit RISC CPU core - 10/100 MBit Ethernet controller - 4 asynchronous serial ports - 2 synchronous serial ports - 2 USB ports - 2 Parallel ports - 4 ATA (IDE) ports - 2 Narrow SCSI ports (or 1 Wide) - Support for SDRAM, Flash, EEPROM, SRAM The device comes in a 256-pin Plastic Ball Grid Array package and uses 350 mW power (typical). See also: http://www.axis.com/products/dev_etrax_100lx/index.htm ETRAX 100LX MCM is an ETRAX 100LX plus flash memory , and an ethernet PHYceiver . There were two versions commercialized: the ETRAX 100LX MCM 2+8 (2 MB flash, 8 MB SDRAM), and the ETRAX MCM 4-16 (4 MB flash, 16 MB SDRAM). See also: http://www.axis.com/products/dev_etrax_100lx_mcm/index.htm Designed in 2005, and with full Linux 2.6 support, this chip features: - A 200 MIPS, 32-bit RISC with 5 stage pipeline CRIS CPU core with 16 kB data and 16 kB instruction cache and a MMU. - Two 10/100 Ethernet controllers - Crypto accelerator, supporting AES, DES, 3DES, SHA-1 and MD5. - 128 kB on-chip RAM - A microprogrammable I/O processor, supporting PC-Card, CardBus, PCI, USB FS/HS host, USB FS device, SCSI and ATA. The device comes in a 256-pin Plastic Ball Grid Array package and uses 465 mW power (typical). See also: http://www.axis.com/products/dev_etrax_fs/index.htm A Linux-based cross compiler is provided by Axis and can be downloaded from their website along with a range of sample applications. Pre-compiled images are also available. Several hardware manufacturers offer 'developer boards': a circuit board featuring an ETRAX chip and all the necessary I/O ports to develop (or even deploy) applications. These include: See also: http://developer.axis.com/old/showroom/index.html SDK, how-tos, sample applications: http://www.acmesystems.it/?id=14
