A pal of Ashley Riggitano, who killed herself Wednesday by jumping off New York’s George Washington Bridge, has come forward saying the fashionista was “deeply troubled and needed mental help.”

“She did this to sabotage the other girls. She wanted to cause a huge spectacle | and take as many people down with her as she could,” the woman, who requested that her name not be published said.

Significance and Use
The damage-based design approach will permit an additional method of design for GFRP materials. This is a very useful technique to determine the performance of different types of resins and composition of GFRP materials in order to develop a damage tolerant and reliable design. This AE-based method is not unique, other damage-sensitive evaluation methods can also be used.
This practice involves the use of acoustic emission instrumentation and examination techniques as a means of | damage detection to support a destructive test, in order to derive the damage-based design stress.
This practice is not intended as a definitive predictor of long-term performance of GFRP materials (such as those used in vessels). For this reason, codes and standards require cyclic proof testing of prototypes (for example, vessels) which are not a part of this practice.

Breaking Dawn Part 2 Trailer: The Volturi Are Coming
Twihards (or Twihaters), feast your eyes on the first proper trailer for Breaking Dawn: Part 2!
What we love about this trailer:

2000 Honda CR125
I have often wondered about the differences in design between a grand prix road racing motor and a typical motocross motor. Both are two strokes, and both are designed for racing (they don’t have to meet emissions laws). Why, for example, would a power-valve design in a GP bike result in more horsepower or a better power-band than a dirt bike power-valve design?
Let me give you a specific example. By all accounts, Honda’s NSR 500 GP bike (the one ridden by Mick Doohan, Alex Criville, etc.) makes 190 horsepower. An NSR 500 consists of four 125cc cylinders in a “V” formation somewhat like the design of Honda’s VFR street bikes and RC-45 racer (although they are four-strokes, obviously, and there are other differences – I am just talking about the basic layout of the engine). If you divide 190 by four, you come up with approximately 47 horsepower per 125cc cylinder.
The fastest 125cc motocross bikes produce approximately 37 horsepower. A stock 125cc motocrosser makes about 30. Huge dollars are thrown at making motocross bikes as | fast as possible (the 37 horsepower figure represents an estimated output for a full factory motocross 125cc machine – backed by all of the R&D efforts of Honda, Kawasaki, etc. on their factory teams).
Why would Honda be able to get an extra 10 horsepower from a 125cc cylinder on an NSR road racing machine versus its 125cc, single cylinder motocross bike? Some of the difference may come down to efficiencies in a four-cylinder design versus a single cylinder. As a percentage, perhaps less horsepower is lost through friction and inertia in | [

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Mitt Romney's campaign laughed off suggestions on Friday that the presidential candidate had used a cheat sheet during his debate with President Barack Obama, saying the object in question was a handkerchief to battle sweat.
As he walked to the podium Wednesday night, Romney was seen reaching into his right pocket and removing a white object, which he placed on the podium.
Video clips of the moment were posted online on Thursday by people who suggested the object was a crib sheet. Candidates are typically not allowed to bring notes on stage with them.
Later during the debate, Romney was seen wiping his brow with what appeared to be a white handkerchief.
The object was, in fact, a handkerchief, and the sweat-fighter was allowed under debate rules, Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul said.
A spokesman for the Commission on Presidential Debates, the non-partisan organization that has managed debates since 1988, did not immediately return a request for comment.
While the debate agreement for 2012 is | not public, the contract from 2004 outlawed any "tangible objects" from being brought on stage by the candidates. The agreement called for the moderator to interrupt any candidate who used any object such as a chart or diagram.
This is not the first time partisans have accused a candidate of shenanigans in a presidential debate.

He didn't like it that families often had to line up around the block in the pre-dawn to be able to secure toys for the holiday or risk being shut out. He didn't like seeing children in cold, often inclement weather, risking their health for some small measure of cheer their parents couldn't afford. There had to be a better way, something more dignified.
On a July day in 2007, Smith, one of the founding members of the Better Balance for Long Beach community group, was having lunch with Janet
Rhodes, who has since moved to Georgia, said, "It was kind of a unique situation. We were just sitting talking about things we always hoped would happen."
One thing Rhodes said she had always wanted to do was set up something where children could get gifts for their parents.
Smith, who had been part of toy giveaways at the park with Better Balance, said he wanted to create something "different from a lineup and toy giveaway."
"Better Balance did a lot of giveaways in the park and it was just a mad mob scene," | Rhodes said.
The idea that was hit upon would eventually become The One-Day Christmas Store, which carries a subtitle that best describes the idea - Shopping With Dignity.

Miami (Fla.) was added to Kansas State’s 2012 schedule six years ago when Ron Prince was still head coach and trying to pump up his team’s nonconference slate. Current coach Bill Snyder — who returned to the helm of the Wildcats in 2009 after Prince’s three-year time in Manhattan didn’t work out — isn’t a fan of such games, regularly scheduling FCS opponents for openers.
But there were the Miami Hurricanes on Saturday, a shadow of what they used to be but still with some cache to their name, blitzing into the Little Apple. And there were the Wildcats, blasting them to smithereens in a 52-13 win.

First things first: Russian Dolls, the show premiering tomorrow night on Lifetime, is not a Jersey Shore knockoff. It was merely shopped around as one, back when it was called Brighton Beach and held Vimeo auditions in search of monetizable goofballs. Well, the Situaciya wannabes can hold on to their abs. After a spin in the development blender, Russian Dolls has emerged as something more docile: It is The Real Housewives of Kings County.
The series’ main character and self-designated breakout star (a week before the premiere, she was already sending out solo press releases) is Marina Levitis, the co-owner, with her patient-looking husband, of the Rasputin nightclub. As shortcuts go, this is an impressively blunt one: It’s akin to making a show about Manhattan with Donald Trump as the hero. Marina is, at least for our purposes, BFFs with Diana, 23, a nominally blonde beauty who wears a large gold Star of David but whose religious leanings are better encapsulated by the phrase “I believe in Botox and plastic | surgery,” which she actually utters in the pilot. Diana, in turn, hangs out with Anastasia, who’s largely the same make and model, but with a brunette finish. Fifteen minutes haven’t passed before the two hit the Russian baths, which are poised to become this show’s Jacuzzi; Marina, 34, gets a pass from undressing. So far, the women are surprisingly snark-less about each other, and thus the only drama in the pilot comes from Diana wavering about her “Spanish” boyfriend, Paul. (Her drawled “Paul has a M | [

More bogus pig research
Campylobacter coli strains have been discovered in both antibiotics-free and in conventionally raised pigs, US scientists at North Carolina State University revealed.
The strains of antibiotic-resistant Campylobacter coli in both antibiotic-free (ABF) and conventionally raised pigs were identical. This finding, published in the open access journal Plos, may be indicating that regardless of what antimicrobial programme a pork producer may choose, antibiotic-resistant pathogens may still persist in the environment.
The objective of the study was to compare the population biology of antimicrobial resistant (AR) Campylobacter coli isolated from swine reared in the conventional and antimicrobial-free swine production systems | at farm, slaughter and environment.
A total of 200 C. coli isolates selected from faecal, environmental, and carcass samples of antimicrobial-free and conventional swine production systems were typed by multi-locus sequence typing.

Ph.D. thesis, University of Birmingham.
In this work an investigation into the effect of alloying additions (Mn, Cu, Sb and Zr) on microstructure and corrosion of Zn alloys and hot dip galvanised coatings was undertaken. The first part of this thesis focuses on the effect of alloying additions on the corrosion of Zn alloys. The result shows that Mn is the most beneficial addition, which can significantly improve the resistance of Zn. The effect of Cu depends on its concentration. A high level of Cu addition has a deleterious effect on the corrosion resistance as the Cu-rich particles are catalytic cathodic sites for oxygen reduction. Additions of Zr and Sb were found to have | minor effect on the corrosion behaviour of Zn alloys. The effect of these additions on the microstructure of hot dip galvanised coatings was investigated in the second part. Both Zr and Mn can inhibit the layer growth of active steels with high Si content. Thus, Mn and Zr might be an alternative addition to Ni which can control the excessive reaction of the active steels | [

When we last left the early voting tussle in Ohio, a federal judge ordered the state to open the polls on the weekend before the election. The Secretary of State, Jon Husted, planned to file an appeal. But he went further than that. He said that he would not institute the court order until after the outcome of that appeal, and make no preparations for the early voting sites to open that weekend before the election. Husted’s order prohibited county boards of elections from setting hours for the weekend voting.
Lynn Kinkaid, Director of the Butler County Board of Elections, which originally voted to hold weekend hours before Husted’s directive restricted them, told ThinkProgress the board is powerless to act against the Secretary of State’s directive. “I can’t imagine we would disobey a court order…he must have a good reason for it,” Kinkaid said. “He’s the big boss. I’m not going to second-guess my boss.”
Husted fired two Montgomery County election board members after they defied his directive | and voted to hold weekend voting hours. Two other Ohio counties have asked Husted to reevaluate the voting restrictions.
The county election boards might not want to cross Husted, but federal judges don’t like it when you deny their existence. The judge, Peter Economus, set a date for a hearing for next week, and ordered that Husted “personally attend the hearing.” I would expect Economus to subject Husted to quite a bit of yelling next Wednesday.

It's fitting that, toward the end of Olivier Assayas's Carlos, the titular character (played by Edgar Ramirez)--once a notorious terrorist, but at this point in the film reduced to teaching guerrilla warfare to bored Sudanese trainees--cites the strategic philosophy of T.E.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – A new survey released Thursday says young adults, between 18 and 33-years-old, are more stressed than any other generation.
USA Today says the online survey was conducted in August 2012 by Harris Interactive for the American Psychological Association and was taken by 2,020 U.S. adults (18 and older).
Results of the survey say the average stress level of adults in 2012 was 4.9 on a 10-point scale, where one means “little or no stress” and 10 means “a great deal of stress.”
The survey found that the stress level for Millennials, adults aged 18-33, was 5.4 with 39 percent saying their stress increased during the past year and 52 percent saying that it has kept them up at night. The top two causes of their stress are work and money.
Millennial survey participants also | reported, more than any other group, that a health care provider told them they have depression or an anxiety disorder.

To the Editor: The occurrence of irreversible agranulocytosis has limited the use of clozapine as a first-line medication in the treatment of schizophrenia. Additional severe side effects, such as myocarditis, pancreatitis, and sudden death, have been described. We report a case of neutrophilic dermatosis, or Sweet’s syndrome, and polyserositis induced by clozapine treatment.
Ms. A, a 44-year-old Caucasian with a 26-year history of schizophrenia, was admitted to our facility because of neuroleptic-induced dyskinesia.

Laboratory tests showed normocytic anemia (3,700,000/μl) without acanthocytosis but otherwise normal results. Findings of cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), chest radiography, ECG, and EEG were normal. There was no family history of movement disorders.

Agoraphobia is an intense fear of being somewhere you feel would be difficult to escape from. It can include a fear of being in a car, in a crowded building, or on a busy street. It may be difficult for you to leave your home. Agoraphobia can cause real emotional distress. Treatment can help you manage your symptoms and overcome your fears. It may not be easy to work through your fears and it may not happen right away. Be patient. In time, you’ll likely feel happier and less afraid.
Medication may be a key part of your treatment. It can help ease your symptoms before you start therapy. It also may be a part of your ongoing care. Your doctor can discuss your medication options with you.

One would think that music and spoken word are two of the most complimentary art forms. They seem like they should be a perfect match; next to music, spoken word is the medium most reliant on pitch and rhythm, not to mention abstract concepts like cadence, consonance and dissonance. But the combination is a risky endeavor. One often hears music/spoken word collaborations that serve to diminish both components, with each distracting from the other, interfering with each other as opposed to providing contrast or counterpoint. But if there is a musical entity that could successfully marry the two, it’s Kronos Quartet, whose experience working in unusual musical settings is as wide as anyone’s. Working with authors Rula Jebreal, Marjane Satrapi, and Tony Kushner, they brought their experimental energies to the Metropolitan Museum for an evening-length work titled “Exit Strategies”.
While no | theme was explicitly mentioned in the program, the authors’ works would suggest a general theme of politics and the Middle East, but the evening’s topics proved freewheeling and wide-ranging.

- 4842 Hogwarts Castle (2010)
- 4867 Hogwarts (2011)
The first rendition of Hogwarts Castle appeared in 2001, the year when Harry Potter was introduced. This castle contained several generic places from the first book and film Harry Potter and Philosopher's Stone, such as the Astronomy Classroom, the Owlery, the Fat Lady's Corridor, the Library, the Great Hall and an arch for the boats to pass through, while more specific locations were released in separate sets, such as the forbidden third-floor corridor with Fluffy and the trapdoor, the Chamber of Winged Keys and the Giant Chess | board (though miniaturised), the room with the Mirror of Erised where Harry faces Professor Quirrel, the Potions Classroom, a generic classroom alongside the abandoned classroom where Harry finds the Mirror for the first time in the set 4721 Hogwarts Classrooms, and the Girl's Bathroom where Harry is attacked by the troll.

45 years ago today, November 22, Lee Harvey Oswald shot President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas. Countless newspaper articles, magazine essays, books, films and official reports restate the basic facts of the assassination and its aftermath. Many conspiracy theories still burn bright if only in caves scattered around the landscape.
Memories of that terrible moment are an iconic part of the collective American consciousness. We can still hear that mournful drum beating slow time to the presidential funeral procession’s march along Pennsylvania Avenue. We see Jacqueline Kennedy sheathed in black, and the small boy by her side saluting his father’s casket, John Jr., later, too, gone too soon. We remember being glued to the black and white television screens of that time, and stunned to witness first-hand Jack Ruby’s murder of Oswald at the Dallas police station. Americans back then were used to watching Ozzie and Harriet, not Law and Order, so witnessing a murder in real-time, just days after the president’s murder, was another appalling shock to the national psyche.
Kennedy was only in office for three years, in a time that now seems almost pre-modern. Indeed, his election in | 1960 was hailed as the start of an entirely new age, and his legacy forever includes the establishment of the Peace Corps and launching of the American space program. But his term in office also came at the height of the cold war and concerns about the Soviet presence in Cuba, so close to the U.S. | [

How Reflective Listening Can Help You Communicate More Effectively
Reflective listening is a communication style that can be employed to steer a conversation toward being healthy and productive. It originates from the idea of “client-centered therapy,” the favored method of psychologist Carl Rogers.
This technique is a valuable tool in de-escalating arguments and clearing up confusion. When properly employed, reflective listening will enable you to have a conversation free from emotional triggers and regretful words. It can help you to create a situation where a reasonable understanding can be reached.
We’ve all been part of a conversation that has gone off track and strayed in to unfriendly territory. Once emotions start to flair, it seems that the risk of misunderstanding is high. If things continue to escalate without resolution, abusive language – and even violence – can ensue.
How It’s Done
In effect, reflective listening consists of respectfully listening to someone | , thoughtfully considering what they are saying, and confirming with them that you understand what they have said. When a conversation turns volatile, this style of communication can be a saving grace. Follow these guidelines when practicing this method.
- Listen closely to what is being said – be present in the moment and allow the person to fully state their case.
- Observe the person’s body language as well as other cues that can clue you in to how they are feeling.
- Empathize – put yourself in the other person’s place as well as you can to try and understand where they are coming from.

The Constant Tin Soldier
THERE were once five-and-twenty tin soldiers; they were all brothers, for they had all been born of one old tin spoon. They shouldered their muskets and looked straight before them; their uniform was red and blue, and very splendid. The first thing they had heard in the world, when the lid was taken off their box, had been the words Tin soldiers! These words were uttered by a little boy, clapping his hands; the soldiers had been given to him, for it was his birthday; and now he put them upon the table. Each soldier was exactly like the rest; but one of them had been cast last of all, and there had not been enough tin to finish him; but he stood as firmly upon one leg as the others on their two; and it was just this soldier who became remarkable.

IPv6 Rolls Out Today!
June 6, 2012 – WORLDWIDE
I’m pleased to announce the official roll out date of IPv6 – TODAY! For those of you who don’t know what IPv6 is or the importance of it, let me sum it up by saying this transition is crucial for future connectivity as our current IP addressing method, IPv4, is near exhaustion.
Computers have these things called IP (Internet Protocol) addresses; they’re similar to phone numbers in that they are used for inter-computer and device communication. IPv4 uses 32-bit (four-byte) addresses, which limits the address space to 4,294,967,296 (equivalent equation is 2^32) addresses. You might think 4.2 million addresses is more than enough, however, putting reserved addresses aside that are used for private, governmental and experimental purposes, we’re left with insufficient addresses to meet the increasing growing demand of devices that need IPs in order to communicate over the internet.
Since the 1980s, it was apparent that the pool of available IPv4 addresses was being depleted at a rate | that was not initially anticipated in the original design of the network address system. The threat of exhaustion was the motivation for remedial technologies, such as classful networks, Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) methods, and network address translation (NAT | [

The scrapping of the cane has led to a deterioration in children’s behaviour at school, according to teachers.
Sanctions available to schools since corporal punishment was abolished 25 years ago are ‘totally inadequate’ at reasserting authority in the classroom and lack the same deterrent effect, they said yesterday.
While rejecting a return to the cane, members of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers condemned existing sanctions such as detention and suspension.

Taylor Guitars Shows Off New ModelMonday, January 28, 2013
El Cajon-based Taylor Guitars has introduced a new model of guitar — and it’s a big one.
The Grand Orchestra is among the manufacturer’s largest guitars, with a body almost 21 inches long and 5 inches deep. Taylor said its design team had originally wanted to “revoice” its Jumbo model, but ended up building a new model from the ground up. The new model has more capacity to support the low notes, Taylor said in its promotional material. Despite power at the low end of the scale, it offers “surprising balance and responsiveness for a big guitar,” Taylor said.
For now, Taylor is producing three models of | the Grand Orchestra, all in limited editions. Taylor’s suggested retail price ranges from $3,518 to $5,658.
The Grand Orchestra made its debut at the recent National Association of Music Merchants show in Anaheim.

Party’s founding day marked in Russia, Algeria
In his opening speech, Secretary of the Party Committee in Russia Dang Huu Trung reviewed the CPV’s 80-year glorious history from the successful 1945 August Revolution to the construction of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now renamed the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
He stressed that the CPV, founded by President Ho Chi Minh, has always been in the forefront of the struggles for national independence and freedom. It has really been the vanguard of the working class, the people and the nation, he said.
According to Trung, the Party Committee in Russia, a part of the CPV organisational system abroad, has made efforts in overcoming difficulties and fulfilling political tasks, and helping strengthen the strategic partnership and comprehensive cooperation between Vietnam and Russia.
Speaking at the ceremony, Vietnamese Ambassador Bui | Dinh Dinh highlighted the strengthened traditional friendship and strategic partnership between Vietnam and Russia, reflected by the regular exchange of high-ranking visits and the increasing two-way trade turnover.
In 2009, two-way trade between the two countries exceeded 1.7 billion USD, up | [

Environmental regulators are investigating air quality violations in an Iowa town, but good data are elusive.
An Iowa town with the worst air quality in the state is again under scrutiny by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency after years of bumping up against federal air pollution limits.
Last month, the EPA declared Iowa's pollution-fighting plans "substantially inadequate" for maintaining fine particulate matter standards in Muscatine, an industrial town of 22,700 on the Mississippi River.
The state has 18 months to craft new plans for EPA approval, and then local industry will have another two years to install equipment or decrease production and reduce emissions. | Not meeting pollution standards can lead to withheld federal funding and, eventually, a federal implementation plan that comes directly from the EPA instead of the state.
The EPA's action comes just a few months after the agency voided almost two years of Muscatine's sulfur dioxide data due to faulty equipment, which may postpone a ruling on the status for those emissions standards. The agency requires three years of data to determine whether standards are being met.
Results from air modeling software could be submitted to the EPA, but some state officials are resistant to the idea.

If your brain requires a morning jolt to get going, think beyond a cup of Joe and go green. That's because green tea can help improve memory and cognition in men, reports a new study in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Researchers recruited 12 healthy men and divided them into two groups. One group consumed a drink containing a green tea extract, while a placebo group was given a drink without the extract.
For more natural ways to give your mind and body a much-needed boost try these The Top 10 Supplements for Men.
Then, using an MRI machine, scientists took an inside look into the men's brains while they performed a memory test. Compared to the placebo group, the green tea drinkers experienced an increase in the activation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain associated with working memory, which you need for problem solving and focus.

A 17-year-old Milan Avenue boy is accused of selling heroin over the weekend near his home, Huron County Juvenile Court Administrator Chris Mushett said.
The Norwalk Police Department arrested the boy in connection with a Milan Avenue incident Sunday, Mushett said. He was charged with trafficking in heroin, a fourth-degree felony if committed by an adult.
During a detention hearing Monday, Judge Timothy Cardwell had the suspect placed in the Erie County Juvenile Detention Center. The boy requested a court-appointed attorney to represent him at further hearings.
Mushett said the boy's arrest had "a lot of similarities" to an incident Sunday night in which officers arrested New London resident Pelmer Owens, 47, of 57 W. Washburn St., in connection with selling heroin near the St. Paul social hall.

Using the Theory of Reasoned Action to Explain Physician Intention to Prescribe Emergency Contraception
CONTEXT: Although research has examined providers' knowledge, attitudes and prescribing behaviors with regard to emergency contraception, none has used a theory-based approach to understanding the interplay of these factors.
METHODS: A cross-sectional survey of 96 faculty physicians from one Southern and three Midwestern universities was conducted in 2004 to assess factors associated with intention to prescribe emergency contraception. The theory of reasoned action guided the study hypotheses and survey design. Correlation and regression analyses were used to examine the data.
RESULTS: Only 42% of respondents | strongly intended to prescribe emergency contraception for teenagers, but 65–77% intended to do so for all other specified groups (women who ask for the method, who have had a method problem, who have experienced rape or incest, and who have had unprotected sex).

India's first indigenously developed sub-sonic cruise missile Nirbhay on Tuesday failed to hit the target in its maiden test-firing as it had to be terminated mid-way after deviating from the flight course.
However, the Defence Research and Development Organisation said the missile "successfully" met the basic mission objectives and performed some of the manouveres satisfactorily before being terminated mid way.
"Nirbhay was successfully launched today at 1150 hrs from launch complex, Chandipur, Odisha, meeting the basic mission objectives successfully.
"After travelling approximately mid-way, deviations were observed from its intended course. Further, flight was terminated to ensure coastal safety," DRDO spokesman Ravi Gupta said in a release.

How to choose and maintain earthmover tires
Your earthmover tires are a critical component of uptime, cost control and profitability.
| June 01, 2012
Other than the cost of the machine itself, fuel and tires are the biggest expenses you face in earthmoving and quarry work. While the price of fuel is out of your control, there are a number of tire-related factors you can control that will lower operating costs and increase your uptime.
It starts with picking the right tire. And just because all tires are round and black does not mean they’re all the same. Today’s heavy equipment tires offer a diverse range of technological improvements over designs of just a few years ago. Here’s a guide to what the major manufacturers are producing.
A new retread option, the Michelin XZY3 Pre-Mold, brings all the technological innovations of the company’s new tires to a retread product with a heavy duty, thick tread and anti-cut/anti-chip properties for the on/off road market. The XZY3 Pre-Mold tread comes in rolls and multiple widths and is applied to casings at Michelin authorized franchises. The company also uses two different rubber compounds co-ex | truded in the XYZ3 product. “It uses a cooler running compound by the casing to keep heat off the casing for better performance and longevity,” says Tom Brennan, vice president of sales for retreading at Michelin. “Then the tread that goes against the road can be a different compound and be more aggressive, or fuel efficient or offer less rolling resistance if needed.”
