See Where it all Began!Piers Anthony: "Possible to Rue"
Nobody starts at the top. Long before they were household names, all of the superstar science fiction and fantasy authors in this anthology were just fans with stories and dreams. Now, for the first time ever, fifteen of the genre’s most important authors have come | together to show off their first published SF stories, many of them rare and never before collected. All fifteen stories come complete with brand-new retrospective critiques and interviews from the authors themselves, discussing the stories’ geneses, humorous anecdotes surrounding the stories’ publication, and what the authors know now about writing that they wish they’d known then. An invaluable look at the origins of speculative fiction’s greatest minds, and bursting with insightful advice for beginning writers, this book is a must for any science fiction or fantasy fan, aspiring author, or teacher.

OK, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit. It was probably the size of a large meatball - a meatball the size of Texas!

9,000-Year-Old Drilled Teeth Are Work of Stone Age Dentists
for National Geographic News
|April 5, 2006|
Human teeth excavated from an archaeological site in Pakistan show that dentistry was thriving as recently as 9,000 years ago.
Researchers excavating a Stone Age graveyard found a total of 11 teeth that had been drilled, including one that had apparently undergone a complex procedure to hollow out a cavity deep inside the tooth.
The discovery suggests a high level of technological sophistication, though the procedure, which involved drills tipped with shards of flint, could hardly have been a painless affair.
"The finding provides clear and compelling evidence that earlier people had knowledge of manipulation of dental hard tissues in living people," said Clark Spencer Larsen, an anthropologist at Ohio State University in Columbus, who was not part of the excavation.
Scientists from the Université de Poitiers in Poitiers | , France, and the Musée Guimet of Paris made the discovery.
The team's findings appear in this week's issue of the journal Nature.
"We think the drilling had medical reasons," said Roberto Macchiarelli, a paleoanthropologist at the Université de Poitiers and lead author of the study.
"While some teeth had been drilled more than once, four showed signs of decay suggesting a possible therapeutic intervention."
The procedure could not have had an aesthetic purpose, since its results were not easily visible, he added.
But the real motive is still uncertain.

Below are interesting research findings from our survey of 50,575 couples creating stepfamilies conducted by Life Innovations and Smart Stepfamilies. Couples took the PREPARE-MC relationship profile as part of premarital education or counseling. An analysis was conducted to discover the qualities of couples with the highest satisfaction and to discover what qualities best predicted high quality or low quality remarriage relationships. A practical book assimilating what we learned has been written to help couples grow their relationship and beat the odds of divorce. The book authored by Ron Deal and David H.

State of the Union: The guest list
Gun violence victims, local elementary students among attendees
It's not a typical red carpet, but the guest list for Tuesday's State of the Union address features a range of names from successful CEOs to average Americans to local elementary school students.
Victims of gun violence will especially have a prominent role on the list of attendees, as President Obama is expected to again highlight his firearm proposals. Seated in the gallery will be at least 20 survivors of gun violence invited to attend the annual event by members of Congress, who are each given one ticket for a guest to view the speech in person.
The effort is organized by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the group co-chaired by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino. They've been vocal advocates for stricter gun control restrictions, airing television spots calling for legislative action following December's massacre at an elementary school in Connecticut.
Joining the group will be former congresswoman Gabby Giffords and her husband Mark Kelly, who were invited to attend the State of the Union by Rep. Ron Barber and Sen. John McCain. Both Barber and McCain represent Arizona, the state where Giffords was seriously injured during a shooting in 2011

The current lease to the Piedmont Swim Club expires in June 30, 2008. PSC is currently considering a non-negotiated offer from the City of Piedmont to extend the lease for a period of 18 months, through December 2009. The lease extension is not advantageous to the members of PSC and I would be surprised if PSC accepts it. (PSC Board Letter) Among other reasons, the proposed extension is effectively a 1 year deal to PSC because no additional members are likely to be added from 7/1/09 to 12/31/09 and membership dues are paid in the Spring. Because the operation of the pool depends on member dues and because the City has rejected PSC proposals to raise revenue by selling memberships to Piedmont City and School District employees, charging the Piedmont Swim Team for its use of the pool and/or for a rent rebate, a one year | lease simply doesn’t fit within any conceivable successful business operation model for the PSC.*

Detection of long-term regional hydrological change from reference hydrometric networks in the UK and Europe

Reference hydrometric networks, consisting of near-natural catchments gauged by stations with good hydrometric performance, are increasingly being used by researchers in order to discern natural, climate-driven trends from other, more direct, anthropogenic disturbances (e.g. water abstraction and reservoir influences). In the UK, a “Benchmark” network has been designated, and has formed the core of a number of assessments of hydrological change.

Red-eye is the scourge of a good family photo. Here's how to remove red-eye from photos using photo-editing software.
Although it is better to try to avoid red-eye in the photo-taking process, removing red-eye in post production is a simple process
That all-too-familiar red eye effect is caused by bright light from a camera's flash reflecting from someone's retinas. You can prevent it by using the technique of bounce flash – reflecting the light from the flash off the ceiling, or select your camera's own anti-red-eye flash mode.
You could also try turning off the flash and using the available light instead, although this might result in camera shake due to a slower shutter speed. Fortunately, correcting red-eye in photos is easy and effective.
Zoom in so that the eyes are large on the screen. Select ‘Red Eye Correction', which you'll find on the Tools tab, and drag a box around the offending portion of each eye to remove the redness. To prevent over-correction, PhotoScape tends to err on the side of removing too little of the red so you might end up with a red halo around the corrected portion of the eye. If this happens, you'll have to remove the remaining redness yourself.
There | are several ways you could do this but one of the easiest and most effective is to use the clone stamp. We'll look at how to use this powerful tool below when we explain how to remove unwanted objects.

I just added a Logitech Squeezebox Boom to my bedroom. I can't say enough good about the Logitech (formerly Slim Devices) Squeeze products. I already had a Squeezebox in the living room, and decided that the Squeezebox Boom would be a great addition for the bedroom.

I doubled-up on the upgrade and added a Logitech Harmony 610 universal remote. My cable box remote refused to control the volume on the Squeezebox Boom since it acts much like a DVD player. I already had one of the Harmony 510 for the living room TV so it was a natural step. I love how configurable these things are.

First year medical and physical therapy students organize and present a unique gathering that reflects the respect felt for the donors and their families, and provides the opportunity for the students and their instructors to demonstrate their appreciation for the donors' important gifts. That tradition continues today. The service is conducted in the late spring on the Upstate campus, and family members of all donors received in the previous calendar year are invited to attend.
Paying Tribute to Those Who Have Made Donations...
"You have given four individuals the answers to their dreams. With each day...we come closer to understanding the process by which we live and die. Your gift is the key to our education. You are our most important class—your silence is our most important lecture—you are our most interesting professor. You are a valiant person and I will never, ever forget you. For the body you have donated so that I may one day help others, I thank you from the depths of | my soul. May God bless you for your ultimate and priceless gift."

But if best-selling teen author Libba Bray ever writes a memoir of her darkly quirky life, she'll have to come up with another title. A Great and Terrible Beauty is already taken.
That, of course, is the title of her 2003 breakout bestseller, a supernatural mystery set in a girls boarding school in Victorian England.
That Bray, daughter of a Texas minister and an English teacher, would be drawn to the gothic is understandable given the shattering twists of her own, personal soap opera.
It's a saga shaped by family secrets, a wrenching parental breakup, a loved one's tragic death from AIDS and her own near-fatal accident on the brink of adulthood. It seems the only thing missing from Bray's personal melodrama is Snidely Whiplash tying her to the railroad tracks.
As a friend told her recently, "You have a life like seven Oprah shows."
But Bray, 41, is too bright and sassy to wallow in bathos. A New York transplant with a Texas twang, Bray has a quick and irreverent sense of humor -- "as one-eyed girls often do," she notes dryly.

Vivid Examples of Excellence
"Sports serve society by providing vivid examples of excellence."-George F. Will
In 1989, Michigan point guard, Rumeal Robinson, was fouled at the end of a game against Wisconsin. With no time on the clock and his team down by one point, Robinson proceeded to miss both free throws. There is no worse experience for an athlete than to be put in a position to win the game and to fail. It’s something that is devastating enough that it could ruin a weak-minded individual, but Robinson wasn’t the sort. The story is that he shot 100 extra free throws after every practice from that day forward because if the situation happened again, he didn’t want to fail. Later in the year, in the NCAA championship game in overtime, he drove to the basket in an attempt to make the game-winning shot, but he was fouled. With no time on the clock, and down by one point, Rumeal Robinson calmly sank both free throws to give his team a one-point victory—an NCAA championship.
Several years later, I was | coaching a 7th grade girls’ basketball team. We were undefeated, late in the season. I don’t recall if we were behind by one or two points, but one of my starters, a girl by the name of Stephanie Duell, was fouled on the last play of the game. She immediately started crying. She knew if she missed, our undefeated season was over and the emotion of the moment overwhelmed her. She shot the free throws, and, of | [

When you COULD call the midwife! Britain had 10,000 district nurses and midwives in the 1950s. And, as these pictures show, they were the heartbeat of the community
The tin bath hanging on an outside wall, the no-nonsense pram, the children poring over colouring books while a nurse in starched uniform and hat advises mothers-to-be in an ante-natal class.
It is the detail in these fascinating photographs that evokes the real world of Call The Midwife, as dedicated district nurses work to bring care and health education into the poorest parts of Britain’s towns and cities in the late 1940s, the Fifties and Sixties.
And then, of course, there are the babies themselves — being washed, weighed and checked over by strong, competent hands as their tired but happy mothers look on.

In 1917 Marquis M. Converse (to that time a modest manufacturer of rubber shoes) designed the All-Star basketball shoe. The shoe was the beginning of the almost legendary status that characterizes Converse for over 95 years. Chuck Taylor the ambassador, the man who\'s signature is processed in the logo of the All-Star, made??the shoe popular in the relatively new sport of basketball. For years, Converse has been the official supplier of footwear in the NBA, the American Basketball Association. With the advent of Rock & Roll music in the \'60s and \'70s the All-Star became an absolute cult status. The original shoe was embraced by the youth movement and was a

The classic All-Star shoe we wear today has become one of the most popular labels in the world.

Mayor Dave Bing and the City Council will keep their jobs, but Orr will decide all financial matters.

Marketing: Why it is Vital to Your Firm
No matter the size of the company, the principles of marketing applied properly can improve one's profitability. Marketing is an evolutionary process that links firms to customers. Marketing encourages the exchange of goods and services for money in a way that is profitable to the firm and satisfying to the customer. The marketing process is constantly being adjusted and tailored to different situations based on three strategic business factors: the company, the customers, and the competition. It is important that wood products' organizations and their managers be aware of how these three factors interact and constantly adjust business strategy.
It must never be over-looked that marketing is the income generating activity of the firm. Marketing is also the function of the firm that reaches out to customers and communicates with them. Regardless of how good the product is, without acquiring satisfied customers, and the business that they generate, wood products' firms will not be able to operate at their optimal profitability level. Marketing is the mechanism | through which this can be achieved.
OK, so it's important, but WHAT IS IT?
Somewhere around the time all garbage collectors became sanitation engineers and all janitors became maintenance supervisors, a funny thing happened to a lot of sales people: they became marketing managers, marketing engineers and marketing associates, and some even became marketing representatives. (Blake, 1983)
This quote helps to illustrate just how misunderstood and misused the term marketing really is. It is hard to define and includes such functions as sales, distribution, pricing, promotion, products, and many others. Here is an example of a definition which attempts to encapsulate | [

No 498 Posted by fw, June 8, 2012
Back on January 31, 2012 I posted a copy of my letter to the editor of the Windsor Star challenging the factual accuracy of an article by Star reporter Chris Vander Doelen. (Windsor Star misleads public over global warming).
Today the Star published another misleading report, this one by Michael Den Tandt of Postmedia News. My letter to the editor appears next followed by Den Tandt’s story. My letter is necessarily abbreviated to comply with the Star’s 250- to 300-word limit.
In response to Blind faith won’t make climate science gaps go away by Michael Den Tandt, Windsor Star, page A8, June 8, 2012 –
The gap Michael Den Tandt speaks of is not in climate science, it is in his misunderstanding of the scientific method and in his choice of biased sources to support his flawed arguments.
“The science isn’t settled” is a popular claim of climate change skeptics. To the extent that this statement is true it is trivial, and to the extent that it is important it is false. No science is ever “sett | led”; science deals in probabilities, not certainties. When the probability of something approaches 100%, then we can regard the science, colloquially, as “settled”.
Outside of logic and mathematics, we do not live in a world of certainties. Science comes to tentative conclusions based on the balance of evidence. Just because some details are still not well understood | [

Buying health insurance will no longer be an option because failing to do so will be illegal. In other words, “Don’t not do that!” or face the full force of the law and miraculously not doing something becomes doing something.
Don’t Not Do That!
For the first time the Federal Government has mandated that all citizens must purchase a product: health insurance. If citizens fail to purchase the product they become law breakers subject to fines and penalties enforced by the IRS although we’ve been repeatedly assured this is not a tax. According to the Federal attorneys arguing that this ground-breaking regulation is constitutional the Commerce Clause provides the authorization. In other words, not taking an action is now considered commerce by the Federal Government. In effect the Federal Government maintains for the first time in American History and perhaps in the History of the world that not doing something is doing something. It is this type of newspeak, circular logic, and sophistry which destroys the credibility of those who tell us less is more.

Viper roars back, even better than before
SRT sports car loses weight, gains power and refinement
SONOMA, Calif. -- Chrysler Group's high-performance sports coupe returns to showrooms late this year with more power, less weight and fewer letters in its brand name.
Rebadged after a two-year production hiatus as an SRT, not a Dodge, the 2013 SRT Viper retains the aggressive styling and power that made it a favorite among racing enthusiasts.
But while earlier versions lacked basic cabin technologies such as cruise control in the single-minded pursuit of performance, the latest Viper embraces comforts and conveniences.

Engineers removed more than 100 pounds in weight but added 40 hp to boost its V-10 engine to 640 hp. | Torque is up 7 percent to 600 pounds-feet. Torsional stiffness was boosted by 50 percent in part by an X-shaped aluminum brace affixed above the engine and below the Viper's clamshell hood.

On the Fritz, which includes, counterclockwise from front center, Katie Ross, Jack Massey, Collin McNellis and Max Shoffner, rehearsed all week in Steamboat to prepare for Denver Battle of the Bands on Sunday.
Steamboat student, grads to play Denver Battle of the Bands
Steamboat Springs band On the Fritz, with Katie Ross, Jack Massey, Collin McNellis and Max Shoffner, rehearse in preparation for the Denver Battle of the Bands in January.
Find the band on Facebook (On the Fritz) and listen to more music there.
Steamboat Springs On Wednesday afternoon in a cramped but cozy studio space above a warehouse, four teenagers spent more than six hours thumping away on their instruments, trying not to let the anticipation get to them.
They did the same thing Tuesday and Thursday, and they’ll do it again Friday.
“Don’t let them hold you back,” sang Steamboat Springs High School senior Katie Ross in a still unnamed original song they call the “B | ottle Song.”
“You own the road, now take your way.”
The song is “about following what you want and not going back to your encyclopedia for direction,” explained bassist Max Shoffner.
And that’s what they plan to do Sunday afternoon, when the group, called On the Fritz, plays in a Denver Battle of the Bands at Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom.
It’s currently winter break for Shoffner and drummer Collin McNellis, who are freshmen at the University of Colorado at Denver. Guitarist Jack Massey also is on break and traveled home to Steamboat from school at the University of Vermont | [

Of all the suicides in the United States, 80% are committed by men. This fact reminded me of a conversation I had a number of years ago with a man who was the executive director of a large drug and alcohol recovery center. This particular center worked with both men and women who were struggling with addictions. I had the opportunity to be the speaker several times at their chapel services, and I could not help but notice that for every one woman, there were eight or nine men in the audience.

OverviewPokemon Red and Blue are the two initial releases of Nintendo's long-running Pokemon franchise. Developed by Game Freak, Red and Blue were the studio's first major successes; the company would eventually go on to create several direct sequels to the games for Nintendo's portable consoles the followed the Game Boy. Although the official number of Pokemon was often touted to be 150 in the games' marketing, the actual number of acquirable Pokemon was 151, albeit with the caveat that the additional creature couldn't be acquired through normal means.
StorylineThe basic premise of Pokemon Red and Blue involves a nameable protagonist who sets off on a journey to thoroughly train, catch, trade, and ultimately master as many Pokemon as he can. After acquiring one of three Pokemon from Professor Oak; Bulbasaur, Squirt | le, or Charmander, and then fighting a subsequent training battle with his rival, the main character sets off to explore the world to fulfill his goals.

Development of a Novel targeted nanoparticle drug delivery system for breast cancer medication Colleen Clark, Villanova University
In recent years, a major challenge of the pharmaceutical community has been to develop an effective and noninvasive way to treat and target tumors. This project proposes the use of a drug encapsulated within a microparticle comprised of a polymer shell—poly (D, L lactic-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA). A cancer drug will be encapsulated within the polymer shell and the shell will be | coated with a covalently linked targeting mechanism for attaching the particles to cancerous cells. The targeting method used was a biotin-avidin linkage as well as a targeting antibody. Using a polymer shell allows for the slow release of the drug over time as it naturally degrades in the body. The linkage will allow for the drug to be released in areas only containing cancerous cells, leaving healthy cells alone. The focus of this study is to characterize the size, morphology, encaps | [

More charges revealed after acquittal
TRANSPORT AND METRO REPORTER
The full extent of Ewen Macdonald's criminal past is yet to be revealed. It can now be reported that the Feilding farmer is awaiting sentence on a total of six charges, to which he pleaded guilty in Palmerston North District Court last May.
He was found not guilty on Tuesday of murdering his brother-in-law, Scott Guy, outside his rural Feilding home in July 2010.
But Macdonald has admitted poaching two deer from a Feilding farm in December 2006, burning down an old farmhouse on Mr Guy's property in October 2008, and vandalising his new home with an axe and offensive graffiti in January 2009.
He did so with the help of Callum Boe, who worked on the Guy family farm that Macdonald and Mr Guy managed jointly.
The details of the other | three crimes have been suppressed until his court appearance in Palmerston North at the end of the month, where it is expected a sentencing date will be set.
But, although police have vowed to consider any new evidence that might come in, Macdonald can never be retried for the murder of his brother-in-law.

In a meeting of the Federal National Council last week, members called on the Government to create more jobs for Emiratis. Citing the relatively high unemployment rate, which is at 15 per cent of the citizen workforce according to the Ministry of Economy, one can understand the call for action.
To put this unemployment rate in perspective, the rates in both the United States and the United Kingdom are officially about 8 per cent, just over half of the UAE's. One wonders how two countries that are going through tough economic times maintain higher levels of employment than the UAE economy, which is in full development mode. And to add fuel to the fire, Emiratis are a minority of the population, but even a smaller minority in the labour market.
There is a need for immediate action to tackle unemployment, but the argument that Government is responsible for job creation is a quick, and somewhat weak, solution. A better approach would be to focus on long-term stability in both employment and human-capital development.
An apt metaphor is a Band-Aid applied to a | wound that requires stitches. It might hide the problem, but it won't heal the wound.
There are several points of focus that I believe could tackle both current unemployment and, more importantly, the underlying issues that contribute to unemployment.

The measure would increase the wage by 50 cents a year until it matches the inflation-adjusted equivalent of minimum wage in 1968, which was $1.60 per hour.

Iran's first Vice President Mohammad Reza Rahimi blamed Judaism for the

In the speech described by the Times

one single Zionist who is an addict. They do not exist. This is the

An Author’s Guide to Publishing in 2012 – Part Two, by Dr. Amy Rogers
Part 2: Indie Publishing
Take all of the above and add another, less glamorous tech advance: print-on-demand publishing. What you get is a slew of new publishing options. Traditional New York-based publishers (now consolidated into six major houses with many imprints) used to be the only game in town. What was once derisively called vanity publishing has become “indie”, and indie publishing encompasses a wide range of approaches.
This is the buzzword on everyone’s lips, but what does it mean? I find that many people | use the term “self-published” to broadly describe any book in any format that does not have the imprimatur of a Big Six publisher. This fails to account for the various degrees of self-publishing and also the new professional indie publishing options out there.
1. A truly self-published book is written, edited, designed, formatted, and distributed all by the author. The main advantages of this approach are total control and minimal financial expense (though the investment of time may be substantial). Some writers create their own publishing company to do this.
