3D printing design studio Modla recently teamed up with London-based artist Damilola Odusote on a three-dimensional sculpture. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Nike Air Force 1 sneaker, the design turns the shoe into an entire world, exploding with imagery that has become synonymous with the brand. The artist first completed a 2D illustration, which Modla’s head designer and co-founder Jon Fidler went on to create with 3D software, before the final sculpture was printed out in SLS nylon plastic.

If you looked at the Springfield individual stats yesterday, you should have noted that JAM. aka Jonathan Audy-Marchessault is leading the Falcons with 6 points, with 2 goals and 4 assists. Not to be surprised as he led [tied] Plymouth with 64 points in all 72 regular season games. JAM is playing on a line with Ryan Johansen and Cam Atkinson, which has to be considered as the Falcons top line. AND if you remember he had 5 goals in the pre-season games including a hat trick. I noted yesterday that in Saturday’s game I heard the name John Moore a lot. The same can mostly be said for JAM. Mostly the play by play used the “Audy-Marchessault” in calling the game, but JAM comes in a little. I suspect JAM will be used more and more as the season goes on. If you didn’t follow the link, or don’t know he is another “mighty mite” at 5’8″ and 180.

If you’re not on the gopconvention2012 YouTube channel, you’re missing out on some unit-free infographics of unclear intent. —Tag Eight More Ways Women Will Benefit Under Obamacare Starting Tomorrow Graphic: A demographic breakdown of the world of religion With the “world’s largest” gathering of atheists this weekend in Washington, D.C., the National Post’s graphics department takes a look at how the world’s religions break down. (Illustration by Richard Johnson) One of the main tenets of capitalism is that it allegedly creates competition, giving consumers higher quality and lower costs. But when competition drops from 37 national banks to 4, that “consumer wins out in the end” theory goes right out the window. But don’t even think of regulating the banks! The GOP War On Voting Is In Full Swing "Registering [the poor] to vote is like handing out burglary tools to criminals. It is profoundly antisocial and un-American to empower the nonproductive segments of the population to destroy the country — which is precisely why Barack Obama zealously supports registering welfare recipients to vote. […] Encouraging those who burden society to participate in elections isn’t about helping the poor. It’s about helping the poor to help themselves to others’ money." -Conservative columnist Matthew Vadum ———— John Stossel (Fox News): "Let’s stop saying everyone should vote." Rush Limbaugh: "If people cannot even feed and clothe themselves, should they be allowed to vote?" Judson Phillips (Tea Party Nation): "If you’re not a property owner, I’m sorry, but property owners have a little bit more of a vested stake in the community than not property owners do." Source: News Corpse So what exactly happens if Congress and the White House don’t raise the debt ceiling by early next month? The Bipartisan Policy Center has generated a blow-by-blow, day-by-day account of the fallout. In the spirit of NewsHour even-handedness, it outlines the consequences without rhetoric or exclamation marks. We’ve reformulated much of their data as an interactive graphic. However, if and when a deal is struck in Washington, you can scan it nostalgically in the spirit of “Remember when the United States was so politically paralyzed that it risked its credit rating and international credibility by refusing to hike the debt ceiling?” If a deal is not reached, you might bookmark the report and our graphic to consult once the deadline passes. What do I think? That if a deal isn’t reached, the United States will continue paying interest on the national debt, thus avoiding anything that would constitute official default. Why do I think this? Because, to take the August numbers, the United States is slated to take in about $200 billion in revenues and owe only $30 billion or so in interest payments. But then will come the cuts. Our graphic lets you see the options, but my guess is that once the cleaver hits the meat, howls will be heard and a deal quickly struck. It’s just a guess though. As you may have tired of reading here, it’s a probabilistic universe. Moreover, why believe in my accuracy in making the odds? Even I don’t. Three-quarters of US adults are internet users. Six in ten of these online adults use social networking sites such as Facebook or Myspace, and one third (35%) of these social networking site users took to these sites during election season to get political information or to get involved in the campaign. Our definition of political use of social networking sites includes anyone who did one or more of the following activities on these sites in the months leading up to the 2010 elections: - Discover which candidates your friends voted for this year – 18% of social networking site users did this (this represents 11% of all adult internet users) - Get candidate or campaign information –14% of social networking site users (9% of all internet users) did this - Post content related to politics or the campaign – 13% of social networking site users (8% of all internet users) posted their own content on these sites - Sign up as a friend of a candidate or group involved in the campaign—11% of social networking site users (7% of all internet users) did this in 2010 - Take part in political groups or causes – 10% of social networking site users joined such a group, and 2% started their own group on these sites. This works out to 6% and 1% of internet users, respectively. Taken together, that means that 35% of all social networking site users got involved politically on these sites during the 2010 elections. That works out to 21% of all adult internet users. Half of these political social networking users took part in one of the six activities we asked about in our survey, while the other half engaged in two or more activities.

GOOD: What Congress Would Look Like If It Were Demographically Representative of America Here’s what the House and Senate look like today, and what they would look like if they were demographically representative of our nation. One thing not noted on this infographic is that, besides being nothing like America in terms of race, sex, or religion, our senators and representatives are also wholly different from most Americans in terms of wealth. We’ve said this before, but it bears repeating: The average American’s net worth is $96,000. But the average Senator’s net worth?$13.4 million. For House members that sum drops to “just” $5 million. Does this represent your community?

Wow, its hard to believe that we've done 24 shows since I started hosting a radio show back in March of this year, and let me tell you. It's been quite a journey for me. Anyway, enough sentiment. Am too damn good at it, and well would rather roll the hard six and get straight to the point. As my listeners will know I have been running some pre recorded shows for the last few weeks due to my co - host and creative partner Will Stape taking somewhat of a break. Will says he shall return in August so sadly we haven't got rid of him to easily:) Anyway, this blog post is to let you all know that am doing one show this Sunday, which is a pre recorded special centred on Doctor Who. Basically with me being from the UK I have a pretty good knowledge of the Doctor. I was practically raised with the classic series. So I figured that I'd hook up with my friends T. Shawn Hardly and Marx and record something special. So we pre recorded a retrospective looking at the various regenerations of the Doctor Who from William Hartnell to David Tennant. So on Sunday 19 July, I will be hosting this special pre recorded show where we discuss the various incarnations of the Doctor and share our thoughts on each incarnation, and after that I will take a break for a week and return on 2nd August when I will be hopefully joined once more by Will Stape to discuss all manner of science fiction and horror, and we may just have a few guests lined up as well when we return.

Keywords: - algorithm; - anticoagulation; - pharmacokinetics Summary. It has been shown that computerized algorithms for the prescription of coumarin derivates can improve the quality of long-term anticoagulation treatment. These algorithms are usually based on an empiric relationship between dosage and International Normalized Ratio and do not quantify the delaying effect of the drug's pharmacokinetics or the effect of alternating doses that are used to approximate a certain average dosage. Our objective was to develop a mathematical model that takes into account these effects and to develop a new algorithm based on this model that can be used to further optimize the quality of long-term anticoagulation treatment. We simplified a general model structure that was proposed by Holford in 1986 so that the parameters can be estimated using data that are available during long-term anticoagulation treatment. The constant parameters in the model were estimated separately for phenprocoumon and acenocoumarol using data from 1279 treatment courses from three different anticoagulation clinics in the Netherlands. The only variable parameter in the model is the sensitivity of the patient, which is estimated during the course of each treatment. A total of 194 dosage and appointment intervals that were proposed by the new algorithm were scored as ‘good’, ‘acceptable’, or ‘bad’ by two dosing experts. One hundred and seventy-eight (91.8%) proposals were considered good by at least one expert and bad by none. In 39 cases the experts disagreed. We believe that this algorithm will allow further improvement of anticoagulation treatments.

This year I was very busy during the fair. However not busy with work, but busy with buying Vuvuzellas!. I somehow got three vuvuzellas at the fair this year. While most of the people play one long and somewhat annoying note on the vuvu, I learned how to create different frequencies and notes, by changing the length of the vuvu. As you shorten the vuvu the pitch goes up, and as you extend the vuvu the pitch drops. This change in frequency and pitch allow you to create different notes and simple songs. Tiny wings is a very addicting game. The object is to assist ur tiny bird, with “tiny wings”, in soaring over hill and dale. The to obtain a high score you must fly from island to island, wit each island increasing in difficulty. The first island has low amplitude waves, with even wavelengths making it easy to judge the timing for descent. If you timing is perfect and ur bird gracefully caresses the downward slope of the wave you get bonus points and a nice extra boost. As you move from island to island the amplitude and frequency of the waves increase making it harder to get “perfect jumps”. I have always wondered how my home in mililani gets it electricity. There are no tall electric poles, and no loud buzzing sounds. But after physics and a long walk with my dog kea I found the answer. A transformer!!! Hidding in the bushes. This transformer takes te high voltage and decrease it into bite size portions that can be used in homes The fluorescent lights have a gas discharge that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor. They can produce electrical power into visible light more efficiently than incandescent light bulbs. There is amazing physics at work every time you turn on a light. The other week it was my dad’s birthday, and we wanted to hang birthday balloons in the house for decoration, but we had no tape!! So we had to run to the store and buy some tape, just to hang the balloons. But now that I have learned good physics and understand the concept of static electricity and charge, I will never have to run to the store for tape again. All i have to do is rub the balloon on my head, giving it a charge, and touch it to the wall. The balloon will be attracted to the wall and stay suspended. Also i will never have to worry about the words I wrote on the balloon not showing. If i write on the balloon and apply a charge to the opposite side, the words on the balloon will always be facing out. This is because even if you try to flip the balloon over it will flip back to the charged side. After the party is done all you have to do is grab the balloon, grounding it, and then it wont stick to the wall anymore. Thanks physics for saving me lots of time and money! Whenever I am doing home repairs, or building something in 3D physics is all around me. Every screw I tighten, or nail or pound can be explained through physics. Whenever you pound a nail you can feel the different amounts of force created by holding the handle far away or close to the head of the hammer. This power couldnt be explained before, until now. This force is torque. Torque is found by multiplying the lever arm squared times the mass of the object. Therefore when you hold the hammer farther down the handle away from the head you create more torque and more force. With basketball season right around the corner it is important to practice. I shoot around for hours trying to perfect my free throws. However now that I have physics, all I need to do is apply the right speed, velocity, and trajectory, and the ball will fall right through the hoop every time. Once the ball leaves my hand it becomes a projectile flying the the air. SWISH The ball travels with forward and vertical motion. If it the basket didn’t interfere with the ball’s path, it would rise then fall for equal amounts of time. With a constant acceleration of -9.8 meters per second squared. With Physics I will never miss a free throw again. Thanks physics! Everyday I wake up at 5:20, shower, and begin my drive to school. The 22.[[phy_address]] is always relaxing. If I drive at a constant speed of 60 mph, I will arrive at school in approximately 45 minutes. However with traffic the drive usually takes over an hour. In one day if I drive to school and back home, my total distance is 45.7 miles. But my total displacement is zero miles. Displacement is the distance between point A and point B, your initial and final destination. Therefore if I drive to school and then take the same path home, my displacement is zero. If I make it to school in 45 minutes, driving at a constant 60 miles an hour, my velocity will be approximately 1 mile per minute. Velocity is the displacement over time.

A REASSURING HAND IN UNCERTAIN TIMES Carlos Pellecier is a grateful man. He’s grateful for his tenants: “I love my tenants. It’s a joy to go to work. I try to make their day, because, in a roundabout way, they make mine.” He’s grateful to his union, SEIU 32BJ, “because without them I wouldn’t have a job, a pension and security for my family.” And he’s grateful for his work: “I know so many people who are actually out of work. By the Grace of God, I can get up and go to work.” In 2005, however, he was forced to stay home, for the first time in more than 20 years, from his doorman job at [[phy_address]] to deal with a ruptured disc and to heal from neck surgery. “I willed my body back to work in six months,” he said in a phone interview. “You know, pain is relative. If you’ve been around people who have cancer, and I have, or soldiers who’ve lost limbs… I can’t really complain.” Pellecier, 48, is married and has four children and three grandchildren. He grew up in Amsterdam Houses near Lincoln Center where his mother is currently president of the tenants’ association. He credits his mother with passing along her passion for helping others. “She is always caring and going the extra mile,” he said. “She’s a community activist.” According to the tenants of 1380 Riverside, where Pellecier has now been a doorman for 27 years, he does an excellent job of anticipating their needs, especially when they are in distress. In 2004 he came to the rescue of tenant David Braverman, who had made his way down to the door after suffering a stroke. Braverman said his speech was affected, so he tried to write a message on paper, saying he needed a cab to go to the hospital. Pellecier instead called an ambulance. “He’s really consistent,” said tenant Gina Hartwig, who remembered the morning she was running late to a funeral and couldn’t find a parking space. “The minute I came down, he knew something was wrong.” “Take my spot,” he said, immediately moving his own car. One of the biggest challenges he faces in his work is soothing the anxious tenant when things don’t go according to plan or an emergency arises. “If they need something done and it didn’t get done, I’ll go out of my way to see that it gets done. I’ll take messages, hold their keys-if you leave something with me, more than likely it’s gonna get done.” He was on duty three years ago when the earth rumbled, and the retaining wall at the adjacent Castle Village collapsed onto the West Side highway, spilling millions of cubic feet of dirt. About 250 residents were evacuated from his building after cracks were found in the façade. Tenants said he was informative and helpful in uniting residents with their pets and medications. “Whatever I can do, I look forward to helping my tenants,” Pellecier said. “I know if I’m good to them, they’re going to go out and be smiling at someone else.” Tags: Building Service Workers, Carlos Pellecier, West Side Doorman of the Year Trackback from your site.
That wasn’t the only time the Pistons attempted to show their displeasure with John Kuester. Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press: Another source, while claiming no direct knowledge of Friday’s issues, said the team did stage a protest in the locker room after a loss before the All-Star break. That person said players walked into the shower area while Kuester was giving his postgame talk. It was not clear how many players took part in that protest. The Pistons won that game, so he’s obviously talking about a different game than Stein is.

If there is a date marked on the calendar for those who run the Buffalo district office of the U.S. Small Business Administration, then Wednesday was that day. The local branch of the federal agency hosted its ninth annual Matchmaker event at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center. At around 6:30 a.m., small-business owners were already crowded around the entrances, much like Black Friday shoppers, waiting for the doors to open so they can burst through and sign up for a 10-minute, speed-dating type session with buyers from government agencies and other companies. “You have to be aggressive,” said Jeffrey Kryszak of K-TECHnologies Inc. in Hamburg. While the doors didn’t actually open until 7 a.m., Kryszak knew the drill as he’s been there before, anticipating the opening of the building when business people squeeze their way into downtown site. Once inside, he met with Rochester-based Exelis, which was looking for a cable and harness manufacturer. Kryszak’s company, based in Hamburg, makes electronic and electromechanical components and systems, cables and harnesses are sold to defense and aerospace contractors, as well as other industries. The Exelis meeting went well, Kryszak said, and he expects to continue the conversation with a formal meeting in the coming weeks. Buffalo SBA district director Franklin Sciortino said that representatives from more than 250 small businesses and more than 50 buyers were in attendance at the event, which United Business Systems account executive Henry Fischer has attended the last four years. Like Kryszak, he relies on it to find prospects.

I am sorry to see our sisters back in the headlines. My hope is that the sisters will return to their faith and obedience to the Catholic Church and her leaders. It is important for all of us who are Catholic to accept revelation that the Church has no choice but to obey. Abortion, women priests and artificial contraception condoned by the sisters can not be changed by any level of the Church’s hierarchy. That any one in the Church thinks that Pope Francis can or would teach other then what was handed down to him and the Church is unreal and not understanding the Church’s total mission. I ask the sisters to publicly acknowledge their obedience to God’s revelation, the Church and their willingness to rejoin the Church.

CHICAGO – Before 1998’s “The Big Lebowski” there was 1996’s “Kingpin”, the Farrelly brothers bowling comedy that didn’t have the narrative intricacies of the Coen brothers’ classic, but had plenty of jokes about middle-aged men playing the sport.

Our beautiful, stylish and inspirational apartment is located in a residential area of Vinohrady in the Centre of Prague. An English translation of Vinohrady is “vineyards”. The area was covered with vineyards by Czech king Charles IV and the Holy Roman Emperor in the 14th century. The vineyards lasted for some four hundred years and were later replaced by rose gardens, orchards, and residential buildings. The historic Centre is within walking distance or there is a great offer of transport links for exploring the city and the surrounding area. A metro, tram or bus stations to all magnificent monuments (Prague Castle, St Vitus Cathedral, Charles Bridge) are situated just around the corner on Namestí Miru. Metro station Namesti Miru is also at the direct line to the last station Dejvická, from which you can take a bus to the airport (Václav Havel Airport Prague). There are also many restaurants of various cuisines (Czech, Italian, Chinese, American, international), coffee houses, teahouse, non-stop grocery shop, and cocktail bar with music hall. Just across the street from our apartment you will find a huge unique Czech pub with the best Czech beer. The historic Centre of Prague is magical place to see, but all restaurants, shops and accommodations are aimed at tourists for high tourist prices and you can hardly feel the real atmosphere of Prague. In Vinohrady you will be not just a tourist but you will explore Prague as only locals can. Forget about the hotels that are the same in each city.

BEIRUT (AP) — According to opposition activists in Syria, more than 2,[[phy_address]] been killed in just over two weeks of fighting -- and almost half of them were pro-government forces. That makes it one of the worst death tolls in the country's civil war. The report reflects a recent surge in deadly attacks by the al-Qaida breakaway Islamic State group against government forces, as Sunni militants try to consolidate power in areas under their control. President Bashar Assad's forces have gained momentum in fighting with rebels trying to force him from power. Infighting has also hurt the rebel cause, with Islamic extremists battling moderate fighters. The recent attacks came after Assad was re-elected last month to a third, seven-year term in a vote that was confined to government-controlled areas and dismissed by the opposition and its Western-allies as a sham. Assad prayed at a Damascus mosque at the start of a major Muslim holiday today. He smiled as he was shown on state TV greeting Muslim clergymen at the mosque in his second public appearance in less than two weeks.

It's the first chance to see the Minnesota Twins play at Target Field this season as the team hosts the Oakland Athletics on Opening Day. The first pitch is scheduled to be thrown at 3:10 p.m. as the Twins look to win their third game in a row. According to our sister-station KSTP, the Twins could be in for another tough year after averaging [[phy_address]] three seasons. Target Field is no longer a novelty, with the gates set to open for a fifth season. As time goes on, attendance has dropped and so has the economic impact for Minneapolis. Nothing takes away the excitement of a new park more than losing – which the Twin have done a lot lately. According to Meet Minneapolis, the economic impact of a full Target Field on the city is $2 million, but over the past few years sellouts have become the exception to the rule, which means the money isn’t coming in like it used to. Back in 2010 when the Twins finished with 94 wins and went to the playoffs, they brought in an estimated $162 million in economic activity. In 2011, the appeal of the new field seemed to fight off all the losses and brought in $162 million again. But in 2012, they brought in $141.75 million, and last year they brought in just $121.5 million. For the team's home opener at Target Field, there are many reasons the stadium needs to be in tip-top shape. Before any line drives sail past the third baseman, the grounds crew paints the line that will determine each ball: foul or fair. Walking heel to toe, not straying one inch, the groundskeepers make straight and smooth surfaces for home opener. Under the sunshine the small army of groundskeepers diligently get the field ready for action. "It's a small area; you don't think it's a lot of work, but it takes a lot of time and effort to really make this field look good and make it safe," groundskeeper Nick Wilz said. The first person to take the mound will be a homegrown star back from Hollywood. "Our ceremonial first pitch will be thrown out by Captain Phillips' (actor) Barkhad Abdi, who starred opposite Tom Hanks in 'Captain Phillips,'" Twins Spokesperson Chris Iles said. To honor Ron Gardenhire's 1,000th win as Twin's manager, the crew wants Gardy's ballpark to be in perfect shape. The team is also showing support for Twins General Manger Terry Ryan, who was diagnosed with cancer this winter. "We're going to have all players and fans stand-up at the bottom of the second (inning) holding a placard that shows for whom they stand-up," Iles said. Something new this year -- 14 Spartan Juniper trees were planted to overlook center field. Tickets are still available for the home opener, starting at $22 on up. The day will be filled with events - including a free breakfast.

The move comes after a series of tryouts to find a suitable replacement for Maurice "Amazing" Stückenschneider. Is he poised to leave Fnatic? The former Team SoloMid AD carry is ahead of the pack. Plenty cheered when Duncan "Thorin" Shields lost his job. But it's the community that's the real loser. Speculation about the player’s future has been rampant after he was spotted practicing with the Polish side. Stephen "Aldaris" Moore is back. But he still owes money to his old players.
The thing about going on a tear is that nobody ever sees it coming. We also won't get much of anything for the guys we have if we do sell. This year's draft is considered one of the weakest in a long time. Any first round pick we do trade for is gonna be a late first. I don't think any of our players would fetch a first. Lou really has nothing to lose by buying this season. So why not give it a shot? You're painfully and annoyingly optimistic. On top of that you're not realistic. You have to deal in the reality of what this team is. A team that can not score. On top of that, you have to remember that in order to improve and climb the standings, they have to sustain what they already have going for them. A top ranked PK, a 42 year old on a one year deal who can run out of gas any minute now and Vezina-level goaltending that has to stay Vezina level with no margin for error. You know they're going to have to win a SO along the way, too. They also have to leapfrog over at least a half dozen teams. You can look at it and say that as bad as they've been offensively they have no where to go but up, but after this many games it's clear it's a problem. It was a problem 20 games ago. I mean they are one 42 year old on a one year deal away from being worse if that's possible,. That is why it is important to consider trading off and getting assets back to start. You're not going to cure all the ills this trade deadline but it's a start they have to consider making. Get some assets back, go into the Summer and continue from there. This team is in an ideal position to deal to teams in a playoff spot or have eyes on a deep run. The players we vilify here can be valuable depth pieces in different roles. Lamoriello is going to get plenty of calls leading up to the deadline. It might not be a stretch to say, but don't you think the Devils can help influence that logjam of top teams in the West with a shrewd and beneficial deal?

Verizon Teases 4G Android Phones/Tablet for CES 2011 It's about time, frankly. Verizon decided it was time to hint at some upcoming 4G hardware by tweeting a message that indicates the carrier will have LTE Android phones to show off at the Consumer Electronics Show in January. Verizon's Twitter account posted a message implying that Android and LTE (Verizon's version of 4G ) will come together like a corny food analogy, namely, peanut butter and chocolate on January 6 at CES. So far the 4G phones have only been rumors and leaked product shots, so it will be nice to get some official information on what they will include and when they will be available. HTC and LG are both expected to have 4G smartphones to show at CES. However, mentioning Android specifically raises a few other possibilities beside smartphones, namely Android tablets. Motorola has been teasing us with an Android tablet running the Honeycomb version. And images of that tablet clearly show a Verizon logo, raising the possibility that it too will be 4G-capable. We'll be at CES in Las Vegas next month to find out. Stay tuned for more information.
Nearly counted out of the postseason, the Wildcats briefly roared back into the picture. Stunning wins over Penn State and Wisconsin reset expectations. However, a slip at Minnesota and a catastrophic second half against Nebraska have yet again led to a big change in the bowl projections. The offense not only continues to struggle, it seems to be regressing. The defense also appears to be taking a step back. The team's odds of making a bowl are now projected at 40% , down 11 percentage points from last week. Tier projections are listed below. The next update to the projections will be after the Iowa game. CURRENT MEDIA PROJECTIONS Week of Oct. 19 CBS (Jerry Palm): No Bowl ESPN (Adam Rittenberg): Dallas ESPN (Brett McMurphy): Cactus (at large team) ESPN (Mark Schlabach): No Bowl CFN: tba Phil Steele: Pinstripe The Big Ten unveiled last summer its new bowl arrangements, including 11 different bowl games that will rotate to fill nine spots per year. Nine landing places for the conference is a record for the B1G. More importantly, the selection process has changed. Rather than each bowl having a spot in a one-by-one pecking order, the bowls are tiered, and each bowl within a tier will work together and with the Big Ten Conference to determine which eligible team is the best "fit" within the tier. The criteria are a labyrinth of financial and media-driven rules. However, they are influenced by how many times a team has recently played in the bowl in question. Because of the new system, HailToPurple.com has stopped predicting NU's chances for each individual bowl. Instead, we now forecast in which tier NU will land (see below). Schedule of Possible Bowls, 2014-15 and HTP Odds Postseason Tier Bowl (and Date) Network (may change) NU's Chances* (as of Oct. 19) West #1 vs. East #1 Big Ten Championship Lucas Oil Stadium Dec. 6, 2014 Fox Sports 2% Tier One Big Ten #1 Playoff semifinal game: Rose Bowl - Jan. 1, 2015 Sugar Bowl - Jan. 1, 2015 ESPN <1% Orange, Cotton, Fiesta, Peach Bowls (alternate to Rose/ Capital One) Dec. 31 ESPN Tier Two Big Ten #2-4 Citrus (vs. SEC) Jan. 1 ABC 2% Holiday Bowl (vs. Pac-12) Dec. 27 ESPN Outback Bowl (vs. SEC) Jan. 1 ESPN2 Tier Three** Big Ten #5-7 TaxSlayer (aka Gator) (vs. SEC) Jan. 2 ESPN 15% San Francisco Bowl (vs. Pac-12) Dec. 30 ESPN Music City Bowl (vs. SEC) Dec. 30 ESPN Pinstripe Bowl (vs. ACC) Dec. 27 ESPN Tier Four** Big Ten #8-9 Armed Forces (Army vs. American) Jan. 2 ESPN 19% Detroit Quick Lane Bowl (vs. ACC) Dec. 26 ESPN Heart of Dallas (vs. C-USA) Dec. 26 ESPN Nonaligned Bowl TBD n/a 4% *The likelihood of each bowl is a simple projection by HailToPurple.com. The likelihood numbers are additive. So, if for instance the chance for a tier three bowl is given as 10%, that should NOT be read as saying that NU has only a 10% chance of making any bowl at that level or higher. To calculate that likelihood, simply add all the chances above tier three to it. The sum of all the listed chances equals the projected likelihood that NU will make any bowl game in 2014. When adding, remember not to include the likelihood for the Big Ten championship game, since its chances overlap with the other postseason games. During the season, this list will change after each game. ** There are more bowl games in these tiers than there are Big Ten team slots. It is likely that a Big Ten team will not be chosen for both the Music City and Gator Bowls in a given year. This is also the case with the Heart of Dallas Bowl and the Armed Forces Bowl. Of these last two bowls, a B1G team will likely be chosen for the Dallas Bowl in 2014.

Manchester City Still Learning How to Win Gracefully Manchester City won the Premier League on Sunday. Sergio Agüero scored a last-second goal, everyone went bananas, and all was full of love. It marked the first time City won the title in 44 years, and they did so at the expense of their intercity rivals, Manchester United. Then they started celebrating. That’s when things started going wrong. Oh, it all started out pretty great. Liam Gallagher was throwing beer and Roberto Mancini was overwhelmed and team captain Vincent Kompany called their victory a “miracle.” There was even a pitch invasion … Things started getting off track when Manchester City forward Carlos Tévez (formerly of Manchester United) picked up a sign during City’s celebration and parade Monday. He probably didn’t look at it very closely. And much has been made about Tévez’s, shall we say, lack of interest in the English language. But I feel like “R.I.P.” is a phrase that transcends languages. It’s pretty clear that Carlos Tévez didn’t stay up all night shading in an “R.I.P. Fergie” sign. Someone handed it to him and he held it up in the air. Tévez, for his part, apologized. “I got carried away in the excitement of the moment and I certainly didn’t mean any disrespect to Sir Alex Ferguson, who I admire as a man and a manager,” Tévez said. Maybe he knew what it said. Maybe he didn’t. To their credit, United have accepted the apology. Chief executive David Gill said: “The club [City] acted pretty quickly. I think it was rather silly, frankly, in terms of what it said, but City acted with commendable speed.” Just as this tempest in a teacup was being … put back in the cupboard (high-five to me for the mixed imagery there), another minor controversy was stirred up, when another City player took a shot at his former club. Samir Nasri, who not-so-amicably moved from Arsenal to City, early in the 2011-12 season, took a moment from celebrating City’s title to throw some shade at the North London club. “People at Arsenal tried to make out that I came here for the money … I hope they are watching me now, collecting my Premier League winner’s medal. I believe they have not won a trophy for many years now.” Sick Premier League burn. I don’t know why he’s mad at Arsenal. It’s not their fans who harassed him on a highway after a game. [Warning: Some bad words in below video.] The thing is, it’s not like City are the first team to have their players take their moment of glory as an opportunity to stick it to former or hated teams. Even United has a history of doing that … But it will be interesting to follow how City handle their burgeoning new role of top-dog club. They know how to win on the field. Next comes winning off of it.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers finally won their first game of the season at the ninth try as they beat the Miami Dolphins 22-19 on Monday Night Football in Tampa. The New Orleans Saints demolished the Dallas Cowboys 49-17 Sunday night to maintain their NFC South lead, while the Carolina Panthers won 10-9 in San Francisco against the 49ers. The Atlanta Falcons were beaten 33-10 at home by the Seattle Seahawks. NFC South Week 10 Standings: 1. New Orleans Saints – 7-2 2. Carolina Panthers – 6-3 3. Atlanta Falcons – 2-7 4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – 1-8 In week 11, it’s an NFC South basement matchup as the Bucs host the Falcons. The Saints host the 49ers, while the Panthers take on the Patriots Monday night. Week 11 Schedule (all times Eastern): Atlanta Falcons @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 1:00 p.m., Sunday, November 17th San Francisco 49ers @ New Orleans Saints, 4:25 p.m., Sunday, November 17th New England Patriots @ Carolina Panthers, 8:30 p.m., Monday, November 18th Now that we’re into the second half of the season, the race for playoff spots will heat up. Both the Panthers and Saints face difficult home games this week as they battle for first place in the division. With both teams playing so well, the odd team out from winning the division has a great chance at claiming one of the wild card spots. On the other end of the spectrum, the Bucs and Falcons will fight for being the worst team in the NFC. The Bucs could suddenly move into a tie for third with a win over the disappointing Falcons. A Falcon win would almost certainly mean the Bucs will finish the year in the NFC South basement.
Calhoun suffers knee injury UConn junior Omar Calhoun suffered an injury to his right knee during practice on Sunday. The American Athletic Conference has picked a men’s basketball tournament home. FedExForum in Memphis, Tenn., will host the inaugural AAC tournament from March 12-15. The choice makes sense. Memphis has a lot to offer. It also is in a good geographical location. Defending national champion Louisville, Memphis, UConn, Central Florida, Cincinnati, Houston, Rutgers, South Florida, Southern Methodist University and Temple will compete for the tournament championship. “We are very excited to have the first American Athletic Conference championship at FedExForum,” said AAC commissioner Mike Aresco said in a released statement. “We received significant interest from many outstanding venues. “FedExForum is an outstanding facility and the Forum, the city of Memphis, the University of Memphis and the local community will combine to create a wonderful inaugural event that our teams, coaches, administrators and fans will embrace and enjoy.” Every tournament game will be televised on the ESPN networks. The tournament will start on Wednesday, March 12, with two first round games and culminate with the championship game on Saturday, March 15. The tournament champion will receive an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. FedExForum, which seats 18,400, is the home to the University of Memphis men's basketball team and the NBA’s Memphis Grizzlies. It will also host the 2014 NCAA South Regional. UConn junior Omar Calhoun suffered an injury to his right knee during practice on Sunday. Before First Night festivities started today, UConn dedicated its $39 million basketball facility located next to Gampel Pavilion. Jim Calhoun may be retired from coaching.But he'll never entirely leave the spotlight. UConn received a verbal commitment from 6-foot-[[phy_address]] Steven Enoch of Norwalk on Saturday night.

UConn has agreed to a home-and-home men's basketball series with non-conference powers Ohio State and Arizona.
Comparative safety of antipsychotics in the WHO pharmacovigilance database: the haloperidol case - Carla Meyer-Massetti, - Simone Vaerini, - Alexandra E. Rätz Bravo, - Christoph R. Meier, - B. Joseph Guglielmo - … show all 5 hide Rent the article at a discountRent now * Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access Abstract Background Starting in 2007, regulatory agencies strengthened label warnings for intravenous haloperidol. Based on adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports of QT prolongation and torsades de pointes, regulatory agencies recommended the use of continuous telemetry or advising against the intravenous administration in general. Intravenous haloperidol is commonly used as a first line treatment for acute delirium. Consequently, the extended warning has caused uncertainty among health care professionals. Objective The aim of this study is to critically evaluate the WHO global individual case safety report (ICSR) database VigiBase for QT prolongation, torsades and/or cardiac arrest involving intravenous haloperidol compared to other routes of administration and the antipsychotics olanzapine and quetiapine. Method All WHO safety reports (1972–2010) of cardiac reactions associated with haloperidol, quetiapine and olanzapine were evaluated, including dose, route of administration and patient risk factors. Reporting odds ratios for the 3 antipsychotics were calculated. Main outcome measure Number of submitted reports on different antipsychotics. Results The absolute number of ICSR regarding QT prolongation, torsades and/or cardiac arrest were: haloperidol (365 cases), olanzapine (489) and quetiapine (520). Reporting rates of haloperidol did not increase over the last two decades. 32% of the haloperidol cases involved oral, 16.4% intramuscular and 22.7% intravenous administration. The difference of the reporting odds ratios of haloperidol and quetiapine were not statistically significant. Olanzapine was associated with a slightly lower reporting odds ratio. Conclusion While regulatory agencies advise against the use of intravenous haloperidol, review of VigiBase does not reveal that the intravenous route is any more likely to be associated with cardiac adverse events. Furthermore, our results do not demonstrate any additional risk associated with haloperidol when compared with alternative agents. Although pharmacovigilance data does not routinely include a denominator regarding frequency of use, regulatory agencies are currently advising against the use of intravenous haloperidol based on pharmacovigilance, but the number of overall reports is greater for quetiapine and olanzapine when compared to haloperidol. Improved pharmacovigilance approaches are needed to more accurately address the safe, effective use of medicines.

For the second straight season under Bo Porter, everything that could have gone right for the Astros did on Opening Day. The Astros took advantage of some hot bats early in the game and stellar pitching from Scott Feldman to cruise to a 6-2 win Tuesday night at Minute Maid Park. In fact, the only thing that went haywire on the night happened before the game started, when Nolan Ryan missed Craig Biggio badly on the ceremonial first pitch. It was wide enough to miss behind a non-existent right-handed batter to step in against the Ryan Express. Everything else the Astros-related on Tuesday night was right-on. Starting pitching Feldman might have been one of the least heralded Opening Day pitchers in Astros history, but he turned in one of the best performances. The Astros' big free agent acquisition held the Yankees in check throughout the night, going 6 2/3 innings, giving up two hits, two walks and hitting two batters in 101 pitches. The Yankees didn’t pressure him much; the only baserunner he allowed in the first three innings was Derek Jeter, who he hit in the first inning. The Yankees were hitless until Carlos Beltran singled with one out in the fourth inning. Beltran was the only batter to get into scoring position until the seventh inning when Feldman tired. Bullpen The bullpen-by-committee approach worked in the first game. Kevin Chapman relieved Feldman with the bases loaded and two outs in the seventh and induced a comebacker from Kelly Johnson to get out of the inning. Chad Qualls came in after Chapman, walked Jacoby Ellsbury to start the eighth and gave up a single to Derek Jeter to put runners at first and second. After a Carlos Beltran grounder to first put runners at second and third, singles by Brian McCann and Mark Teixeira cut the lead to 6-2. Qualls then got Alfonso Soriano to hit into a 5-4-3 double play to get out of the jam. Matt Albers pitched a scoreless ninth inning to close the game out. Lineup The Astros and their bats started the game on fire and it caught the Yankees, especially starter C.C. Sabathia off guard. Dexter Fowler doubled over Ellsbury’s head in centerfield to start the offense in the first inning. Robbie Grossman moved him over to third base with a sacrifice fly to right field and then Jose Altuve drove him in with a single to left. Altuve moved to third base when he stole second and kept going to third after Sabathia’s pitch bounced past McCann. Jason Castro got him home with a slow roller to first base. Castro reached on a fielder’s choice when Teixeria threw too late to get Altuve at home, and he scored when Jesus Guzman drilled a home run to the right of the Crawford Boxes to make it a 4-0 Astros lead in the first inning. L.J. Hoes added a run in the second with a line drive home run into the Crawford Boxes to leadoff the second inning, and Fowler scored the sixth run when Altuve singled him after his second double of the game. The Astros pounded out nine hits in the game, including a pair of home runs, and the top of the lineup was particularly effective, going 4-12 with three runs scored and two RBIs. Up Next Game 2 of the Yankees series is scheduled for 7:10 on Wednesday night at Minute Maid Park. Hiroki Kuroda gets the start for the Yankees against Jarred Cosart for the Astros. Kuroda was 11-13 in 2013 for the Yankees with a 3.31 ERA. Cosart made 10 starts for the Astros in the second half of the year, going 1-1 with a 1.95 ERA. The game will be televised on CSN Houston with coverage starting with Astros Pregame Live at 6:30.

My condo association uses propane gas (buried in the ground in a tank). I have an Ultra II 97 furnace which is about 12 years old. It heats beautifully. If the furnace hasn't fired up in a few hours and it's cold out, there is major combustion and a big boom as the pilot lights which typically either blows off the furnace front door or at least blows it out. It's only when the pilot lights. I've had numerous furnace repair people here who have cleaned and checked everything, taken the furnace apart, replaced various parts but still haven't stopped the problem. They are perplexed as to what to do next. The problem began last fall when our condo association had a new gas company take over providing our gas service. The furnace repair people said my only recourse if they can't resolve the problem is to have a new furnace installed. I hate to go to that expense as it runs beautifully otherwise and heats very well. I'm only afraid of the noise if the flame that shoots out upon lighting should catch something on fire. Can anybody think of another reason for this loud combustion upon lighting the pilot??

This article originally appeared here. – Have you tried to get funding for your small business, only to get met with denials from banks and other big lenders? Peer-to-peer loans, or person-to-person loans, are a new and rapidly growing area where businesses can get some starter funding. If you’ve heard of microfinance, the idea behind peer-to-peer loans is fairly similar. A large network of “lenders” come together to help borrowers raise money for various purposes. Hundreds of lenders can ban together to help raise money. Lenders can put up between $25 to $1,000, reports The Wall Street Journal. Popular sites for peer-to-peer lending include Prosper Marketplace and Lending Club. While most of the peer-to-peer loans on the site are for lenders who are looking to reduce their credit card debt, there is a growing contingent of small business owners, frustrated with the loan process with banks, who are also turning to the site, reports The Wall Street Journal.

The rising In the space of 72 hours, George Robertson found his company’s products on the cover of The New York Times and himself on CNN and WFAA, along with innumerable mentions in various media around the world. JONATHAN FAHEY,AP Energy Writer NEW YORK (AP) — Exxon Mobil Corp. said earnings rose slightly in the first quarter as profits from chemicals production surged enough to offset declining production of oil and gas. Lower taxes also helped. The Irving, Texas, company reported Thursday that net income totaled $9.5 billion in the quarter, or $2.12 per share, on revenue of $108.8 billion. During last year's quarter, Exxon earned $9.45 billion, or $2 per share, on revenue of $124.1 billion. Analysts expected Exxon to earn $2.05 per share, on average. Exxon's chemicals and U.S. refining operations took advantage of the same low prices that dented revenue and profitability in its oil and gas production operations. Prices of oil and natural gas in the U.S. have been lower in recent months than prices abroad. That has reduced Exxon's earnings from U.S. oil and gas production, and forced the company to cut back natural gas production. But those low prices meant lower raw material costs for the company's U.S. refineries and chemicals operations, which consume enormous amounts of natural gas. Exxon was then able to sell those cheaply-produced chemicals and fuels around the world at enormous profit. "It's just a huge cost advantage," said Brian Youngberg, an energy analyst at Edward Jones, of the low domestic natural gas prices. Profit at Exxon's global chemicals operation grew 62 percent in the quarter, to $639 million. U.S. refining profit grew 72 percent to $1 billion. Exxon's results were also helped by a sharp decline in corporate and financing expenses, which Exxon attributed to "favorable tax impacts." The company's per share earnings grew faster than net income because the company has been aggressively buying back shares from investors. Exxon, the nation's largest oil and gas company and the world's most valuable company by market capitalization, produced 3.5 percent less oil and gas in the quarter, an acceleration of a long-term trend in declining production at the company that worries investors. Oil production slipped as its oil fields experienced natural declines from peak production. Natural gas output in the U.S. was cut back in the face of low prices. "This company has been very growth-challenged for some time," Youngberg said. "If they can get to the point they could keep (production) flat investors would look very positively at that." Exxon shares slipped 94 cents, or 1.1 percent, to $88.49 in morning trading Thursday. They are still near the high end of their 52-week range of $77.13 to $93.67.

I also think you're forgetting that Can is putting up his best passing numbers this year, so even if you believe he has had a clean pocket, then you should have nothing to complain about. I am not blaming Newton for the start this year. Not at all. Newton is what he is. But since you bring up numbers, here they are: Cam Newton is 26th in completion percentage 22nd in yards per attempt 21st in NFL passer rating 18th in yards per game and 17th in total QBR There is plenty of finger pointing and hyperbole thrown around on this forum about other parts of the team, from the owner, GM and coaches to the offensive line, defensive line, defensive backs, linebackers and even running backs and receivers. Guess what: Cam Newton has not been that great either.
Recreational fishermen blame environmental flows in the Goulburn River for the poor start to the Murray cod fishing season. Boats & More Shepparton retail manager Damien Bennett said local anglers as well as those visiting the Goulburn Valley were disheartened when the Victorian Murray cod weren’t biting when the Victorian Murray cod fishing season opened on Sunday, December 1 and for the next few weeks. Mr Bennett reasoned environmental flows caused the river level to rise and its temperature to drop, which caused the cod to go off the bite. ‘‘It was very difficult to catch Murray cod,’’ he said. He said the environmental flows were good for the long-term prospects of the iconic fish species, but if they were poorly timed, whole fishing seasons could be ruined. Mr Bennett was concerned local anglers were going outside the Goulburn Valley to fish and tourists were not coming in, which had implications for his business as well as for the wider community, including accommodation providers, food outlets, service stations and other stores. Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority chief executive Chris Norman said the authority considered recreational fishing when timing environmental flows ‘‘In response to feedback from anglers after the 2012 environmental flows that the fish don’t bite when the river is falling, the recent flows were timed so they would be flat or just starting to rise for cod opening 2013,’’ Mr Norman said. He said water temperature was monitored and the Catchment Management Authority believed air temperature had a greater effect on river temperature than environmental flows. For example, at Shepparton river temperature monitoring showed river temperature was steady during November 30 and December 1 as the flows started increasing and only started falling during the cold snap on December 4 and 5 when the maximum air temperature fell by 17 The corresponding drop in water temperature was only 2°C even though flows were still rising at this time. He said environmental flows were not the only reason river heights changed — rainfall, and requirements to meet demand for irrigation water, also affected river height.

Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard: MARRIED!!!by Free Britney at . Updated at . Comments Jill Duggar, the second daughter in the enormous Duggar family of 19 Kids & Counting fame, married Derick Dillard Saturday in front of (lots of) family and friends. More than 1,000 people in all were on hand to witness Jill, 23, become the first daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar to tie the knot with fiance Derick, 25. The wedding vows were sealed with a kiss - their first ever! Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard were greatly anticipating that. "I think it is safer and makes it more special to wait to kiss until your wedding day," Jill said of saving her first kiss for marriage, as shown on her TLC show. [UPDATE: See the married couple's first kiss photo below!] "To save the physical side of your marriage for your wedding day and not going further than you should ... we both just want to have no regrets." That was all good with Derick, who adds, "You can really get to know each other on every level without the physical part of it. I am the most blessed man to have Jill." The happy couple plans to honeymoon at an undisclosed location. At their wedding, five Duggar sisters were bridesmaids, two brothers were groomsmen, and more siblings, nieces and nephews served as flower girls and ring bearers. It was one major Duggar family affair, through and through, for Jill. The previous day, volunteers gathered to help with decorations, get food ready for the reception and help organize the church in anticipation of the event. The big event went down in their hometown of Springdale, Ark. "I've been crying half the day, so I'm making jokes to keep from crying," Jim Bob said at the rehearsal dinner, where guests took turns sharing memories and advice. One wedding present they already received? The couple admitted to adding cereal on their wedding registry in a moment when hunger took over. "We were hungry while we were making our registry and we gravitated over to the cereal section," Dillard said, laughing. "We picked about five types of cereal." "We actually already got some." Congratulations to the couple on that awesome gift, and more significantly on finding the one to spend the rest of their lives and make tons of babies with. Tons and tons of babies. Wow... Her husband looks more like her brother. Comment modified at Who cares? Never heard of these people! Comment modified at why bother responding if you don't care? Comment modified at I think he will be good for you. if not, call my number............ Comment modified at He couldn't bother shaving. What a loser. Comment modified at obviously you don't watch the show, Jill likes him with facial hair Comment modified at Jill will never know if her husband is a good kisser or bad, or if he's good or lousy in bed, because she's never tried anything else. Are we still living in the middle ages or what? Not kissing till the day you get married...there is something very wrong with that picture. Comment modified at GOOD GRIEF!!! THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN ALLOWED TO BE ON A DATE BY THEMELVES, ALWAYS HAD TO HAVE SOMEONE AROUND WATCHING. HOPE THIS FAMILY GAVE THEM A BREAK ON THEIR HONEYMOON NIGHT!!!! Comment modified at This family is nuts! It's sad with all the opportunities for women now, that she'll turn into a baby machine like her mother and be ignorant as hell like her as well! Comment modified at IT IS SO SAD....I THINK THE BROTHER ALREADY HAS 3 AND ONE ON THE WAY. DON'T QUOTE ME ON THOUGH.... Comment modified at there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, it's sweet that they based their relationship on how they feel about each other vs how good they are in bed or anything else physical, it's not the "middle ages" plenty of people still wait to have sex til they are married, nothing wrong at all with it Comment modified at So what? They get to learn togther. The only thing that Jill needs to know if how SHE feels about it. I hope they have lots of time to learn and grow together. Comment modified at your philosophy is what has led to STD's, abortion, rape, pornography etc. Yep, we are much better off with sexual promiscuity. Comment modified at Dee: "There is something very wrong with that picture." That may be your opinion, but all that really matters is what they believe is right. How they handle their intimate relationship is none of your business. Comment modified at There is way more to marriage than just the physical aspect. As Christians, they believe that sex is something to be enjoyed after marriage. What comes first is that they become one with Christ and strengthen each other within the faith. It's how they wished to live their lives, I'm glad they're happy! Comment modified at Such bullshit! Sex is also an important part of marriage. Chemistry is quite often what keeps it going in bad times..stupid to marry someone you've never even kissed! Comment modified at Stop with the nitpicking already. What's important is that she saved herself for her wedding night. Comment modified at 10 to 1 nine months from the wedding day....BAM!!! Comment modified at It will be fun to read the announcement when one of the gay Duggar kids gets married. Comment modified at YOU ARE RIGHT, HOWEVER, THE PARENTS WOULD NEVER ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN, THAT IS, A GAY UNION. EEEK.... Comment modified at so what if one of them is gay? Does it affect anyone else? No. Comment modified at Actually, I never thought of that! Statistically, there is a significant increase in the chance that a male will be gay based on how many older brothers he has. I'm not saying that if you have many older brothers you are BOUND to be gay, but with so many children in the family, there's a pretty good chance that one of them will be a homosexual. Comment modified at Its Great to see someone Marry someone not just based on the physical side of a Relationship, and I am so Glad that her father was there along with her Mother to reinforce that mental relationship. God will be first, and with this the relationship has the first measure of SUCCESS!!! Comment modified at Which god? There are several hundred to pick from... Comment modified at WHO? Never heard of these people before. Comment modified at All America know for this family ....you willy monkey did you live in Jungle??? Comment modified at Someone tell this mom that her vagina is just that and not a dang clown car! Comment modified at It's more like a Grayhound bus by now... Comment modified at Why the criticism? It apparently works for them.
Get ready, Tony Award insiders – a whole lot of swag could be coming your way next spring. A committee that oversees the Tonys voted on Wednesday to allow Broadway producers to send a wider and more colorful variety of promotional items to the 50 nominators and 800 voters for the Tonys, in hopes of winning them over in the competition for next year’s prizes. Under the now-suspended limits, producers were only allowed to send out scripts, souvenir booklets, audio or video recordings of the score or on-stage performance (without extras), and selected reviews or unedited quotation about the shows. Thanks to the rules change, next year, for instance, the producers of the Sting musical “The Last Ship” could conceivably send a replica of a ship to nominators and voters, or the producers of the new play “The River” might give them an autographed photo of the show’s star, Hugh Jackman.
PanARMENIAN.Net - European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said the bank needed to be on its guard against a "negative spiral" of low inflation that could drag down the economy — and it could engage in large-scale bond purchases to combat that if need be, the Associated Press reports. Draghi's remarks at a conference in Sintra, Portugal, held out the prospect for action to stimulate the weak recovery at the ECB's next governing council meeting June 5. The meeting will take place against the background of a slow recovery in the 18 countries that share the euro currency and concern that Europe may fall into outright deflation, or a crippling downward price spiral. Most economists think the bank will take some kind of action at the June meeting, probably cutting its benchmark interest rate from what is already a record low of 0.25 percent. That would marginally reduce the cost of credit when banks borrow from the ECB, in hopes they would pass such lower rates on to business and consumers, the AP says. The ECB could also impose a negative interest rate on money that banks deposit with it, pushing them to lend it instead of hoard it. Yet Draghi focused on other measures in his speech, talking about ways to improve the flow of credit to small companies in countries still recovering from troubles over too much government debt. One tool available to the ECB would be to make more cheap credit available to banks, so that they could lend it on to businesses. Or, the bank could purchase securities based on loans to small companies, an indirect way of making money available through financial markets. He said that a quarter of viable companies in Spain and a third in Portugal were finding it hard to get credit, according to the AP. He also said the ECB could use broad-based purchases of financial securities if inflation remains low for too long. Currently, inflation is only 0.7 percent, below the bank's goal of just under 2 percent. The U.S. Federal Reserve has made purchases of government and mortgage-backed bonds to increase the supply of money in the economy and promote growth and employment. The ECB has, however, held off and many economists remain skeptical the bank will actually engage in large-scale purchases. Such as step would face practical, political and legal complications in the eurozone because it has 18 member countries. That raises the question of which countries' bonds to buy, and whether such purchases would take the pressure off individual governments to reform their economies and finances, the AP notes. Draghi said that an unexpectedly long period of low inflation could make it harder for indebted countries and companies to work off debt. That could lead firms to reduce investment and consumers to spend less, causing "a pernicious negative spiral, which then also affects expectations," he said. A too-prolonged period of low inflation "would call for a more expansionary stance, which would be the context for a broad-based asset purchase program." The eurozone economy grew just 0.[[phy_address]] quarter compared with the previous three months, and unemployment is high at 11.8 percent.

Martin Biron of the New York Rangers announced that he will be hanging up the goalie pads. The 36-year-old veteran netminder was put on waivers last week, but did not report to the Rangers’ affiliate in Hartford. https://twitter.com/martybiron43/status/391957158658461696 Biron racked up 230 wins in seasons with the Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, New York Islanders, and New York Rangers. He spent most of his career as a backup, but was a starter multiple times. He led the Philadelphia Flyers to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2007-08. He has been one of the most respectable goaltenders in the NHL and will likely be replaced by 6’8” Jason Missiaen for the backup job on the Rangers.

CHINGOZINE [[phy_address]] ALEXIS HERRERA Alexis Herrera is a native Texan artist who is a connoisseur of zines, comics, toys, Son Jarocho, and photography. In Austin, most know Herrera for her part in the Son Jarocho movement, a popular education-based art form centered around community gatherings & celebrations known as Fandangos. The Fandango involves music, dancing, & poetry in the context of a communally created and shared space, with the tarima (a wooden dance platform) as the gathering point. For me, the most interesting aspects of Herrera’s multitude of admirable qualities is not only her ability to be a creator of such aforementioned viewer-driven sensorial experiences but it is among her private journals, diaries, and polaroids that one uncovers her ability to poignantly accent and recognize an image’s ability to traverse a multi-dimensionality that both abstracts and captures the reality of its creator. Thank you Alexis for your vision, and welcome to the ChingoZine family!
believed. "If it crosses the blood-brain barrier, it's likely to have an effect on children's behavior," according to Gabrielle A. Carlson, M.D., a professor of psychiatry and pediatrics at Stony Brook University School of Medicine. Although SSRI antidepressants have received most attention recently, Carlson pointed out at a conference sponsored by the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry that alcohol and barbiturates can cause aggression, excitement, or irritability, while tricyclics can do the same and induce hallucinations, as well. The most common effect on behavior is disinhibition, the loss of restraint over social behavior. Such disinhibitions are considered rare, but when they do occur, they are often the result of some combination of a drug, the child, and the psychiatric conditions already present, she said. Drug combinations, especially antidepressants and alcohol or street drugs, can heighten the risk, as does physical illness. Learning-disabled children or those with degenerative brain diseases are more vulnerable as well, as are children with impulse-control problems, such as those associated with ADHD, bipolar disorder, or borderline personality disorder, Carlson pointed out. At the same time, it can be hard to find good epidemiological data. Events are uncommon, and only people with psychiatric symptoms get studied, while asymptomatic subjects don't get the same scrutiny. Even in clinical trials, adverse events are not the focus of separate reports, so it is harder to collect information from the medical literature, said Carlson. The dearth of pediatric drug trials poses other problems. Many drugs are used off-label, because few studies have been done to seek pediatric approvals. "There is so much we don't know about how children metabolize drugs," she said. Behavioral side effects of medications in children vary with the drug. Stimulants are approved for patients down to 6 years of age. "Stimulant rebound" describes the greater irritability, sadness, crying, or euphoria after their drugs wear off in the afternoon or evening. Experts say it's hard to find, but clinicians see it all the time, said Carlson. A study of 149 inpatient children found that 60 percent showed no diurnal changes in those symptoms. Of the remainder, many children not on any stimulant did worse in the evening, while others had only "trivial rebound," depending only on dosage level. However, a third group, about 21 percent of the total, clearly showed rebound effects that required stopping medication. That, said Carlson, means that clinicians should not be so quick to blame the drug for rebound and discontinue medications without a closer look. As an example, she cited the case of a child who developed psychotic symptoms after going back on 15 mg of a stimulant after a summer hiatus from school. It was found that the year before, the child had started at 5 mg and had been titrated slowly upward to 10 mg and then 15 mg. But restarting the drug at the full 15 mg dose had produced psychosis. Stopping the drug and then retitrating slowly produced no ill effects. A second question regarding stimulants is whether they will make children who have both ADHD and bipolar disorder sicker. In her own research, Carlson found that children with ADHD and manic symptoms responded well to methylphenidate during a one-month titration trial. Those with ADHD and bipolar symptoms responded as well as other ADHD children in the 14-month treatment phase. "Continue to carefully diagnose and treat patients who have some bipolar symptoms and full ADHD," she said. "Stimulants and combination therapies remain the first choice, but treat mood problems first." Rates for activation in trials of SSRIs, of which only fluoxetine and fluvoxamine are approved for use in children, vary from less than 1 percent to 27 percent, clustering around 10 percent. Results of a dozen trials in children provide conflicting data that amount to a "dog's breakfast," said Carlson. "There's no common definition of activation," she said." We need more standardized ways of eliciting side effects from young patients." Finally, a small study of 76 patients with bipolar depression found that in only 9 percent could a switch from depression to mania be attributed to use of antidepressants. These data are consistent with other studies suggesting that people taking antidepressants have been depressed longer than untreated subjects, but while they are at greater risk for switching, not all bipolar patients will switch on antidepressants. ▪ Download citation file: Please confirm that your email address is correct, so you can successfully receive this alert.
The new Georgian government will implement a plan to improve relations with Moscow, while maintaining its policy of pro-Western orientation, Foreign Minister designate Maya Panjikidze said on Monday. “There is a specific plan and idea on how to improve relations with Russia,” Panjikidze said. The aim of the Georgian Foreign Ministry is “to improve relations with Russia thus reestablish territorial integrity of the country.” Georgian billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili, leader of the Georgian Dream coalition which won the nation's October 1 parliamentary elections, named Panjikidze among his candidates for key posts in the new Georgian government on Monday. The Georgian parliament plans to approve the cabinet on October 20-21. Panjikidze maintained the USA remains Tbilisi's main strategic partner and European integration is Georgian Dream's most important aim. Ivanishvili has said in interviews he intends to combine a policy of EU integration and NATO membership with improvement in relations with Russia, but did not explain how he would reconcile the conflict in those aspirations. Moscow has repeatedly said any Georgian accession to NATO is unacceptable. The already strained elations between Georgia and Russia plunged to an all-time low during the reign of President Mikheil Saakashvili, culminating in a five-day conflict in 2008 over the breakaway republic of South Ossetia. Georgia suffered a humiliating defeat, and the de facto loss of one-fifth of its territory, after Russia recognized the independence of South Ossetia and another breakaway republic, Abkhazia. Both republics already enjoyed an element of independence from Tbilisi after Georgia was wracked by civil war and separatist conflict in the early 1990's, but neither have gained widespread international recognition and Georgia regards them as breakaway territories. Georgian Dream won 83 out of 150 seats in parliament. President Mikheil Saakashvili’s United National Movement (UNM) gained just 67 seats. Constitutional changes due to enter force later this year will give the prime minister and parliament much of the powers previously held by the president.

The native plug-in was built using the Eclipse-based ODA framework, and is the latest in a series of BIRT-based connectors for popular data sources. The SAP BW Connector for BIRT features an intuitive GUI similar to the BIRT and ActuateOne® interfaces, and enables users to easily configure queries to SAP Business Warehouse (BW). The data retrieved can then be combined inside ActuateOne products with data of any magnitude or complexity, including Big Data from sources such as machine logs and social media. “As a premier partner of Actuate and multi-level partner of SAP, YASH is well poised to take advantage of technologies from the two companies to create this connector. With years of experience in developing products and supporting large enterprises worldwide, we felt there was a strong need for a connector which would enable access to SAP BW data using the Eclipse-based ODA,” said Gautam Gupta, BI Practice Director for YASH. “This connector enables SAP BW customers to extend their data outside of the SAP environment to use BIRT and ActuateOne for analytical and reporting purposes, thus significantly increasing their return on investment.” “The SAP BW Connector for BIRT is designed for any BIRT developer or IT organization looking for an easy and intuitive way to integrate SAP BW data with BIRT or ActuateOne,” said David Rosenbacher, Vice President of Worldwide Sales Engineering for Actuate. “Once the connector has been configured, it is quick and easy for developers to begin accessing SAP BW data by performing native queries. Prior to availability of this connector, accessing the proprietary SAP multidimensional data was known to be challenging.” Additional features of the connector include platform independence; OLAP access to SAP data via web services; ability to create, access and customize MultiDimensional eXpression (MDX) queries; ability to slice, filter and sort MDX cross-joins; BEx Query Designer parameter handling; and localization support. Actuate’s Collaboration with YASH Technologies YASH is an Actuate Silver Integrator partner and the relationship between the two companies goes back many years.

The man dressed as a woman who investigators wanted to speak to in the Friday night theft of Livingston Parish Sheriff Jason Ard’s pickup has been located and cleared. East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Casey Rayborn Hicks said the man was seen on security cameras outside a Circle K on Evangeline Street at about 4:45 a.m. Saturday trying to use a debit card stolen from Ard’s Ford F-250. “As of now, the person of interest is not a suspect,” Hicks said. She did not explain why the man had the debit card. Ard was eating dinner with his family at Ruffino’s Friday when someone manipulated the keypad on the door of Ard’s personal pickup truck between 7:50 p.m. and 9:40 p.m., found a hidden key inside and drove off. Deputies found the truck in a parking lot on Baringer Court at about 11:30 p.m. Friday, but Ard’s service handgun and a purse containing a wallet with credit cards were missing.

The NFL has announced today that the game time for the Week 12 matchup between the Chicago Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field will be flexed. The game, originally scheduled for 12:00pm CST on November 28, has been moved to 3:15pm CST. This comes after the Bears big win against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday and the record-breaking performance by Michael Vick and the Eagles on Monday night, both wins moving the teams into a tie for first place in their respective divisions. While both teams currently stand at 6-3, most people will probably heavily favor the Eagles. The Bears do have a few things going their way. They will be coming off an extended break after playing on Thursday night this week and the Eagles will be coming off a slightly shorter than normal week after playing on Sunday night against the New York Giants. Either way, the NFL sees this as a game worth watching. I’ll be hoping that intangibles play a factor and give the Bears an edge. It could be a cold, sloppy snow bowl at Soldier field. Flex Note: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Baltimore Ravens game was also flexed to 3:15pm CST on November 28th. The changes were announced today because the NFL must announce flex scheduling changes at least 12 days prior to the game.
Nate Wolters (left) swoops to the basket as Chicago’s Tony Snell contests. After shipping Luol Deng to the Cavaliers on Monday, the Bulls face an identity crisis. At 15-18, and without Derrick Rose for the foreseeable future, they’re stuck between contending for a playoff spot in the lowly East and packing it in in hopes of a high draft pick come June. If the season were to end today, Chicago would finish with the sixth seed in the East, just one spot lower than last season. While fans seem to be split on the issue, Chicago will have a very good chance to win its second straight game of the post-Deng era. Chicago took down Phoenix 92-87 Tuesday behind 19 points and 10 rebounds from Taj Gibson. Playing without Deng, Chicago held the Eric Bledsoe-less Suns to 40.2 percent shooting while outrebounding Phoenix 50-41 overall. Mike Dunleavy stepped in as the starting small forward, joining Kirk Hinrich, Jimmy Butler, Gibson and Joakim Noah in the starting lineup. The Bulls were also without Carlos Boozer, who is expected to return Friday after missing two contests with a knee injury. Whether Chicago is, indeed, looking for wins or not, heading north to Milwaukee is one place where victories have come easy for opponents this season. The Bucks are a league-worst 7-27 overall and 3-13 at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. After defeating the Lakers on New Year’s Eve, Milwaukee has dropped three straight by an average of 16 points. Most recently, the Bucks fell 101-80 to the Warriors on Tuesday. The final score was a bit deceiving, though, as Milwaukee trailed by just two at halftime before the Warriors heated up from the field and outscored Milwaukee 51-32 in the second half. Ersan Ilyasova led the Bucks with 20 points. Milwaukee and Chicago have already met twice this season with each team winning on the opponents’ floor. The Bucks earned an ugly, 78-74 victory on Dec. 10 while Chicago pulled out a 91-90 win three days later. Big men were the difference on both occasions. John Henson scored 25 points and had 14 rebounds in the Milwaukee victory, while Joakim Noah put up 21 points and 18 boards when Chicago came out on top. Henson is a game-time call Friday, as he’s missed the last five games due to a lower leg injury. He increased his activity level in practice Thursday, but if he does play there’s a good chance he’ll see his minutes limited. Should Henson sit out, he’ll likely make his return Saturday in Oklahoma City. Winners of four out of their last five, the Bulls are almost completely healthy, with the obvious exception of Rose. Noah is listed as day-to-day with an illness but is expected to play, as is Mike Dunleavy, who practiced in full Thursday after falling on his elbow during Tuesday’s win. What to watch for: – Chicago’s Jimmy Butler returns to Milwaukee, where he played collegiately at Marquette University. In the teams’ first meeting, Butler scored [[phy_address]] 4-of-12 from the field. He did not play in the second matchup after suffering a toe injury that cost him 11 games. Over the past three games, Butler is shooting just 24.7 percent from the field. However, Chicago has won all three. “Jimmy just has to be himself,” Thibodeau told the team’s official website. “He already had a big role with our team. He’s had some bumps this year because of the injuries, but I think he’s finding his rhythm and he’s playing at a high level right now. (He needs to) just keep doing the things that he’s doing.” – If you’re looking for a high-scoring affair, run. Just start running. Get as far away from Milwaukee as possible. Chicago is the league’s second-best defensive team and worst offensive team. Couple that with Milwaukee’s second-worst offense and you have yourself a strugglefest that could very well be a race to 80 points. – Giannis Antetokounmpo has been garnering league-wide buzz this season – and for good reason. The lanky rookie surprisingly cracked the starting lineup last month and has now started the last 10 contests. However, he’s been a non-factor each of the last two games, scoring a combined two points (1-5 FG) to go with eight rebounds and five assists. It’s not that he’s played poorly – though he was held scoreless and committed five turnovers against Phoenix – he’s just lacked the aggression that was often on display earlier in the year. Things won’t be easy against the defensive-minded Bulls, but he’ll likely be defended by Mike Dunleavy, which should be an advantageous matchup. – Gary Neal was a DNP-CD in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors after reports surfaced earlier in the day that Milwaukee is looking to move the shooting guard. Neal was reportedly involved in a postgame locker room spat with Larry Sanders last weekend in which he told Sanders: “I earn my money. You should try it sometime.” Both the team and players have since downplayed the incident, but it’s hard to believe shopping Neal is a mere coincidence. Larry Drew has not said whether Neal will play Friday, though it’s unlikely he’ll fail to see the court for the second straight game.

The Women’s Committee is an operational committee of Cross-Country Ski de fond Canada (CCC) and exists to ensure equality of opportunity for girls and women as participants, competitors, coaches, officials and leaders in cross-country skiing in each of its five regions across the country (Atlantic; Quebec/Nunavut; Ontario; Manitoba/Saskatchewan/Alberta/ NWT; and British Columbia/Yukon). Williams, who retired from competitive ski racing after achieving her Olympic dream while representing Canada in the sport at the 2010 Games in Vancouver-Whistler, is a talent both on and off the trails. Williams competed at numerous World Cups, two Under-23 World Championships and three World Junior Championships. Williams’ pursuit of excellence continued into the classroom during her 10-year career in the national program. Graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with Distinction from Athabasca University in 2009 helped propel Williams to chase a law degree. She recently graduated from McGill University Faculty of Law, with both Civil and Common Law degrees. “I am incredibly excited about the opportunity to chair CCC’s Women’s Committee,” said Williams, who was also part of a group of young skiers who ran the inaugural Fast and Female event spearheaded by Olympic Champion Chandra Crawford. “I am thrilled to have the opportunity to learn from everyone in the CCC community, as we work towards a brighter future for everyone, regardless of gender, in our sport.” During Williams’ tenure at McGill she published an article in the International Sports Law Journal making policy recommendations to improve gender equity in elite Canadian sports. “Madeleine is relentless in her commitment to excellence – both as an athlete and in her law career – and I know the future of women in our sport is in good hands with Madeleine chairing this highly accomplished group of women who are passionate and dedicated to the success of cross-country skiing,” said Davin MacIntosh, CEO of CCC. The Committee’s focus is on educating women on the roles they have an opportunity to pursue in cross-country skiing and facilitating the participation of women in areas where affirmative action is required. Williams takes over the reins as chair of the committee from two Canadian trailblazers, Beckie Scott and Milaine Theriault, who both opened the door to new opportunities for thousands of Canadian girls both on and off the field of play. During their two-year term as co-chairs, Scott and Theriault renewed the Committee’s membership and infused new energy. One of the more significant enhancements that was facilitated by the Committee was a change to the CCC bylaws that will ensure that at least 2 females hold positions on CCC’s board of directors at all times. Scott and Theriault will continue to serve on the Committee that will also include: Camille Pepin (Quebec); Kathy Davies (Alberta); Marie-Helene Thibault (Alberta); Sue Holloway (Ontario); Sharleen Hoar (British Columbia); Pavlina Sudrich (Yukon); and staff member Stephane Barrette. “Beckie and Milaine are huge inspirations for me, and have done an incredible job creating new opportunities to get involved in cross-country skiing that have changed the lives of women in every corner of this country,” said Williams. “I am anxious to work with Beckie, Milaine and all of the accomplished women in this group, to build on our past successes as we collectively chase our goal of developing more young girls into elite skiers.” Reporting to CCC’s CEO, Williams will work collaboratively with management Committee Members during her two-year term. Williams is currently articling with Justice Canada in Edmonton where she lives with her husband, National Ski Team athlete Graham Nishikawa. Cross-Country Ski de fond Canada is the governing body of cross-country skiing in Canada, which is the nation’s optimal winter sport and recreational activity with more than one million Canadians participating annually. Its 58,000 members include athletes, coaches, officials and skiers of all ages and abilities, including those on Canada’s National Ski Teams and Para-Nordic Ski Teams. With the support of its valued corporate partners – Haywood Securities Inc., AltaGas, Mackenzie Investments, and Statoil – along with the Government of Canada, Canadian Olympic Committee, Canadian Paralympic Committee, Own the Podium and B2Ten, CCC develops Olympic, Paralympic and world champions.

The 23-year-old is a native of Truckee, Calif. and attended Montana State University where she served as assistant student coach to former coaches Grethe Hagensen and Chad Andersen. She graduated from MSU with a degree in community health. BSF head coach Dragan Danevski expressed confidence in the newly hired Nelson, saying that her previous coaching experience and her familiarity with Bozeman made her highly qualified for the position. Danevski believed Nelson’s understanding of juggling school and skiing would help many of the post-graduate skiers, many of whom attend MSU, achieve their full potential.

I prefer "christian like" I was raised Catholic my whole life. However I felt that "church" just wasn't for me. When it came down to the lessons I learned, there was only one that TRULY stuck out above all the rest.. the Golden Rule! "Treat others as you'd like to be treated." And that my friends, is the true spirit of Libertarianism. Do you what you want as long as it doesn't bother others. In other words, don't push your prayers on me, I don't need them but you are plenty free to pray for me.
Following the loss of Suzie McConnell-Serio to the Pittsburgh Panthers, the Duquesne women’s basketball team was without a head coach however according to sources, that ended today. The team’s former assistant coach Dan Burt is expected to be promoted to the head coaching position for the upcoming season. Burt was the top assistant on McConnell-Serio’s Duquesne staff and left along with all of the other coaches on staff to Pittsburgh to be their top assistant however going back to Duquesne to lead the team was too much to refuse. Burt has been a coach since 1998, five years after graduating college. Previous stops were all as an assistant coach and were at West Virginia, UNC Wilmington, Bucknell and Duquesne before he was to fulfill the same role at Pitt. At Bucknell, the team won the Patriot league title in 2006-07 and made it to the WNIT. UNC Wilmington was another successful stop as the team went 53-33 during his three seasons there, their best three seasons. Burt is known as a good recruiter and in 2011 got what ESPN HoopGurlz called the 38th best class. Burt rejoins a team that will be very excited to play with a familiar face and encourage them, while using his strengths as a recruiter to help build a team that is expected to return eight players led by Wumi Agunbiade, Orsi Szecsi and April Robinson. Update: The Duquesne website has made it official and Dan Burt is their new coach. He is the program’s 10th coach in their 40 years. “Dan Burt is the perfect choice to lead our women’s basketball program. He has demonstrated a strong commitment to the university and our student-athletes,” Athletic Director Greg Amodio said in a statement on the Duquesne website. “I expect the program to grow under his leadership and compete for the Atlantic 10 Conference championship annually. The addition of Dan ensures that everything is in place for the continued success of Duquesne women’s basketball.” Burt will leave his job as the top assistant for Pitt to lead Duquesne. “I am very humbled and excited to be the next head coach for the Duquesne University women’s basketball team,” said Burt on the website. “I have dreamed of this moment for the last 16 years and today that dream came true. I would like to thank President Dougherty, Greg Amodio, the Duquesne administration, my family, the players, the previous coaching staff and everybody else I have worked with for their support. I look forward to the challenge of taking this program to the next level.” My take: This is the best hire Duquesne could have made with the current roster they had. The players seemed upset and surprised that they lost Suzie McConnell-Serio, but they stayed together and kept strong during the process. it had to be a comfortable and exciting feeling to get such a familiar face back, especially with everyone else on the coaching staff coming to Pitt. In Burt, they have a coach that has great knowledge of the game. In addition, Burt knows this team and knows that they were more defensively oriented last season. He will have to up their offensive production but this is a coach that was a part of their WNIT success, so he knows what works and what doesn’t. Obviously the players are excited and that will go a long way into preparation for the upcoming season.

Union Minister for Rural Development and Drinking Water and Sanitation Shri Jairam Ramesh has called for making India an open defecation free country in 10 years and announced major restructuring of the Total Sanitation Campaign, TSC. Addressing a National Consultation on scaling up sanitation here, the Minister said there is a need to build a mass movement on the issue as the country accounts for almost 60 percent of open defecations in the world, which he described as shameful and pushed for a major paradigm shift in policy and approach to deal with this problem. He said, the sanitation challenge must be met in a Mission Mode fashion and favoured greater integration of finance, technology and civil society movement to achieve the goal. Shri Ramesh also asked the officials to scale down the numerical targets and have a relook at the funds allocated per toilet in rural areas, which is Rs-3,000 at present and which the Minister felt is not realistic. He also strongly advocated moving away from individual toilet construction to Nirmal Gram Panchayat approach, where the panchayats will be the sheet anchor for the sanitation programme. The Minister said that his model of sanitation is public funding but private management. Lamenting over the under investment in the sector, the Minister assured substantial budgetary increase in the 12th Five Year Plan, which could range between 40 to 60 percent enhancement as the Centre's current total spending for the Drinking Water and Sanitation is only Rs 10,000 crore. The Minister however added that greater participation is key to the success of the programme as the Ministry can only provide funds and broader guidelines.

Amy Stewart returns to the Georgia Center for the Book for an event co-hosted with the Decatur Recreation Center and the Scott Park Garden Club. Stewart, who previously spoke at the library about her books, Wicked Bugs, and Wicked Plants, now turns her attention to the world of brewing and distilling in The Drunken Botanist: The Plants That Create the World's Great Drinks. Stewart explores the dizzying array of herbs, flowers, trees, fruits, and fungi that humans have, through ingenuity, inspiration, and sheer desperation, contrived to transform into alcohol over the centuries. Of all the extraordinary and obscure plants that have been fermented and distilled, a few are dangerous, some are downright bizarre, and one is as ancient as dinosaurs—but each represents a unique cultural contribution to our global drinking traditions and our history. This fascinating concoction of biology, chemistry, history, etymology, and mixology—with more than fifty drink recipes and growing tips for gardeners—will make you the most popular guest at any cocktail party. Join us in the garden at 6:00 p.m. for an informal gathering to sample tisanes brewed by Garden Club members from the herbs in the garden. At 6:30 p.m. we will move to the library for a pre-event book signing, followed by a 7:15 p.m. lecture.
Taylor Swift is back on the silver screen in The Giver, which premiered in New York City on Monday night (Aug. 11). Wearing a lovely, dual-toned gown by Monique Lhuillier, she walked the red carpet at the Ziegfeld Theater, posing for photos with co-stars Brenton Thwaites, Katie Holmes, Odeya Rush and Cameron Monaghan. Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep also lend their star power to the dramatic film, which opens Friday. Based on the 1993 novel by Lois Lowry, The Giver is the story of a society that entrusts its collective memory to one Receiver, thus eliminating a wide range of emotions from its citizens. Swift plays the small role of Rosemary, who was once a Receiver. In one scene with Bridges, she appears as a dark-haired apparition who plays piano. Bridges' role is the Giver, while Thwaite portrays Jonas, the newest Receiver. Holmes portrays Jonas' mother, while Streep has been cast as the Chief Elder, playing a part that was expanded for the movie. The Giver was filmed in Capetown, South Africa. During an appearance at Comic-Con in July, Bridges praised Swift's ability. "Taylor was terrific," he said. "Our scenes we had together -- a lot of the scenes were at the piano, so both being lovers of music, we talked a lot of music and got to pick a little bit between set-ups." Film producer Nikki Silver says that other actresses had been considered for the role, but Swift was cast after seeing one of her concerts. "She's a very soulful, interesting young woman, and we had this very out-of-the box idea that maybe it would make sense that she could be our Rosemary," Silver said. "And she's fantastic. I've spent a lot of time with her, and she had just been looking to dip her toe slightly in acting ... "She was interested, we were interested," Silver added. "It was one of things that was timing and just happened."

A link to %this page% was e-mailed Kate Valleroy is a people watcher. But after this witty artist watches, she goes to work. Whether through found objects or mixed metals, she loves to exaggerate the diversity of people's lives and their surroundings into playful and humorous sculptures, as we'll see in her "Man from the City, Woman from the Country" where her connection to the subject this time is not as an observer, but instead as the subject herself, along with her husband--the man from the city. Materials and Tools: silver sheet (flat stock) brass sheet copper sheet (flat stock) lead free solder soldering tools/station copper backing sandpaper Dremel tool roll press jeweler's saw jeweler's file buffer pickle solution crock-pot patina gloves toothbrush dish soap rubber cement Steps: 1.

Texture the man's landscape using a roll press and sandpaper. Texture the woman's landscape with a hand Dremel tool. 5. Rubber cement the templates to the chosen pieces of metal (figure D) and cut them out of the metal using a jeweler's saw. 6. Drill small holes to thread the jeweler's saw into the piece to cut out the inside holes. Example: Windows in the city and the fence in the country. 7. Clean up the edges with a jeweler's file and buffer. 8. Begin sweat-soldering the pieces together, starting with the largest and moving to the smallest. Put the figures on the landscape with a copper backing to lift them off the surface of the metal in relief. Place in pickle solution. 9.

After the frame is attached, turn the piece over, bend the ears and solder onto the frame. 14. Buff and polish the silver surfaces. Inspect and clean up the pieces, pickle them and remove any residue from soldering or buffing with a toothbrush and dish soap. 15. Let pieces dry, or dry carefully with the torch.
