To the point, I was quite happily sitting at my desk doing some writing ( As I usually do in my spare time ) and I looked over my "Big Project" an idea I'm quite fond of and I thought it could be a pretty awesome game; also having Fallout tabbed in a window made me start piecing things together and I decided why the ........ not.I'll get to the idea in a minute; I've written up a short premise for people to read over. My expertise goes as far as 3D modelling and very basic concept art - yet I'm pretty sure being the charismatic guy I am, I'd have no trouble pushing such a project along.
As for pay, as of now I've got nothing - yet if a solid group formed and we were all serious I'm sure a kick-starter could be opened to provide whatever we needed.I'm looking for C++ coders, so if you have any expertise please feel free to post. I'd prefer it if you were UK based, but international guys/girls are welcome - obviously some form of communication is required, either through skype, steam, Xbox Live or FaceBook ( Once I've decided who's going to be awesome, ofcourse ) to talk and communicate ideas.
The premise:
With Earth beaten and crumbling, the last remenants of humanity struggle to cling to life. Fighting against an extraterrestial threat and against the even more dangerous enemy, Mother Nature herself, the survivors must not only avoid detection and capture by the invading force, but also cling to life in this harsh, almost alein landscape.
Where once large cities stood, now only the skeletal remains are to be found, picked clean by fires, looters and survivors - the streets a dangerous arena of radiation, bandits and the all too clear threat of the alien invaders, constantly searching for the last remains of humanities kind.
The premise of this game is a 2D/3D isometric, turn-based, tactical survival game. Where combat is to be avoided and used as a last resort. Weapons and ammunition are scarce and food even more so. The vast expanses of ruined and destroyed cities and lands around them provide a breif respite from the dangers of combat, but bring another aspect of survival into play - food and water. Surviving in this bleak land-scape is another challenge all-together.
Players can attempt to convince stragglers to band together, providing saftey in numbers but also increasing the consumption of resources. Trust will also play a huge factor between the players and NPCs. A plague spreads over the land, released by the new overlords turning humans into mindless contraptions of violence, with a single bite or scratch being able to transfer the plague and a long incubation time; are the survivors trust worthy?
The unimaginable stretches of empty land will require players to plan journies and gather resources first. An emigration from one city to the next, possibly to a hinted safe-zone could require days of gathering and searching through the danger filled cities to provide all the resources required.
Ofcourse there are more ideas floating about in my head for this, but I'd rather not put everything out there until I have a set team.
So if anyone is interested, let me know and we'll have a word!

Opinion: Chavez Is Back, But Is He Here To Stay?
Columnist Mary Anastasia O'Grady on Hugo Chavez's return to Venezuela after receiving cancer treatment in Cuba and the meaning of Ecuadorian President Ralph Correa's re-election. Photos: Associated Press

... I ... back to Opinion Journal why Mary Kissel Venezuela's ... Chavez ... returned to Caracas Monday after months of medical treatment in Cuba ... this mean for the political trajectory of Venice Whelan ... America's columnist Mary Anastasia O'Grady is here on set ... Mary is shot was well enough to run this country ... no one knows because no one's seen him ... out we are told him ... that he was brought back a few and having a swell up on nom ... and in the wee hours of Monday morning I aam ... but he hasn't been on TV he only tweeted ... his return and I apparently ... return on a ... nine min Jet banana in a small airplane because ... he didn't want to bring him back up to high altitude so ... he's he's pretty sick and I as you and you know there's a photograph of him ... when he's lying down and photograph which raises some questions about whether he can even set up and on many people say he can speak ... what your sources on the ground in Venezuela telling you about ... his political capital he's been gone for several months has been a lot of turmoil within Venezuela ... is this return and not to ... keep him in power assuming ... that he can govern from the bed or or whatever good condition these cities ... are Sheridan's I mean that you don't want her around returned to Argentina ... and I he didn't live long after that but his very dramatic ... return and then death in Argentina ... I allowed parent isn't ... to be sustained for many many years in fact it's still listed bank and I think that's part of what's going on here I mean I don't think that ... and Chinese smile can afford to have a blog China's died in Havana ... so he's gonna come back to crack a Santa has to be something very ... dramatic around his his health condition and what most people speculate will be his death ... oh we don't know that of course and we would wanna be ... protected especially ... when Fidel Castro waiting so long but ... I you know if he does die the ideas that he would have a very Germanic death in crack this and that would be good for the emotional ... hour span ... sustaining of that Teddy's up well there's a lot made of should be smiling this kind of twenty first century ... very populist socialism um ... but yet ... Venezuela's economy has not ... shall we say benefited from these policies we just saw the devaluation of the Boulevard what does that say about the popularity ... of shed the snow was ineffective it gets ... neocon you know the thing is that a lot of pour people ... felt that for many years the government never paid any attention to them ... now they have a government ... that sends them Cubans in wearing white coats ... who hold their hand while they die ... and get some unit one hours a month to study I'm reading to learn how to read ... so they feed this um there some segment of the men's fall population that feels that ... what Chavez has paid attention to them in a way that nobody did before ... aam they but they did Mr. problem mentioned the small phase is this big devaluation because as you know it was a fifty percent devaluation low less than fifty percent ... ah but that the market rate is still quite a bit higher in the right now the official rate is six point three to the dollar the black market rate is ... above twenty three that the dollar and of course there's a lot of shortages sent ... out to shortages of food but also things like you can get a car ... um and that you might think well that only effects the new not her classes but of course as we know that affects the broader economy because ... if the upper upper classes Begin to leave ... I'm the and there is you know a lot of capital flight which there has been ... on the economy just deteriorate so I think it's ... basically we will have a hyperinflation in Venice Whelan and that will be that the moment when I'll be very hard to sustain heavy snow and Mac Mini devil's advocate question this is all due to show the snorts as the Federal Reserve ... Liz played a role here too in flooding the world with dollars and forcing countries like Venezuela ... to devalue ... I need to keep their export machines going ... well I mean the Fed did not force has fallen in value in the province well is that they've basically banned ... they've had lots of dollars coming to pay for the oil but they've been printing more of the local currency ... then I they have dollars to back it up in fact ... I'll what should happen with the Fed doing this is the strengthening of the bull bar ... and instead you have the Boulevard what they call the Boulevard for it than a week ... this trombone are ... very weak and that's because their central bank is non independent ... has been creating too much money you too many dollars chasing too few goods ... one place I just went on to briefly on another country which is adopted very similar policies to Venezuela Ecuador where Akio Carrera won re-election again ... I'm in a big fashion ... on Sunday ... but in this this signaled that this kind of ... cool bro soon ... Democratic populism ... are you taking from the rich re distributing the for ... killing the economy in the process can that ... is coming to an ... end to the or is this Ecuador result just a sign that it's still ... there's still some someone's life student while its onshore is saying you want a big way I know that they say that he can fifty ... seven percent ... but I'm under the rules of the game in the way he he rewrote the rules ... bought all of the votes that were considered now you knew how to vote ... in Ecuador it's mandatory ... so when people ... are protesting ... normally they stay home but since they have to go they know what they call Nolen or avoider blank votes ... and there's an estimate that thirty percent of those notes were flying now those were included in the total ... and slate clean and reptile car and when it faced around ... but he could he'd put a special ruling to the Constitution when he re wrote and ... that all of those to be thrown out and that's why there's this image that he won by big margins ... on how nice and that you know he's spending my money he's got a lot of oil income as you point out while income is good now because of the Fed did well prices are high ... and um you know he is that basically suppress the free meanie an independent media and in Ecuador sent a very difficult for the opposition to compete ... for all of those reasons ... you know if you want but I I would like and said it would stop short of saying that he's wildly popular since the union and maybe not wildly popular America's columnist Mary Anastasia O'Grady thank you so much ... for being with us

The dog even tries to get further into the shot, prompting the host to be wary at first.
Then she reaches down, pets the dog and continues reading.

NEW ORLEANS -- Overeating is associated with an increased risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in people 70 or older, researchers are reporting.
In a population-based, case-control study, people who consumed more than 2,142, kilocalories a day had nearly twice the risk of MCI as those eating fewer than 1,526 kilocalories a day, according to Yonas Geda, MD, of the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Ariz., and colleagues.
The researchers also observed a dose-response pattern. "The higher the amount of calories consumed each day, the higher the risk of MCI," Geda said in a statement.
The full study is slated for presentation at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) in New Orleans in April, but some data were released early.
Geda and colleagues noted that dietary intake has been associated previously with MCI, but the role of daily energy consumption has not been clear.
Indeed, the study is "noteworthy" in that regard, according to Neelum Aggarwal, MD, of Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, who was not part of the research team.
In an email to MedPage Today, Aggarwal, a member of the AAN, said the findings might have clinical implications, as doctors and patients discuss "the links between common healthy living practices [and] overall cognitive function."
The findings might also help the research agenda by highlighting possible mechanisms for the onset of mental decline, she said.
People with MCI are not regarded as having dementia, but they have cognitive deficits that appear to precede the development of such diseases as Alzheimer's.
To understand the links between caloric intake and MCI, Geda and colleagues turned to the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging, a continuing population-based cohort study in Olmsted County, Minn.
They asked a random sample of 1,233 non-demented study participants, ages 70 through 89, to fill out a food frequency questionnaire for the year preceding an interview.
The volunteers included 1,070 cognitively normal people and 163 with MCI, as determined by an expert consensus panel on the basis of published criteria.
The volunteers were divided into three groups, based on the caloric intake derived from their questionnaire answers.
The reference group for subsequent analysis was participants who ate between 600 and 1,526 kilocalories a day. The middle group ate from 1,526 to 2,142.5 kilocalories a day, while the third group ate 2,142.5 to 6,000 kilocalories a day.
Geda and colleagues conducted multivariable logistic regression analyses, adjusting for age, sex, education, depression, apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype, history of stroke, coronary artery disease, diabetes, and body mass index.
Compared with the reference group, those in the middle group had an elevated risk of MCI, but it did not reach statistical significance (odds ratio 1.05, 95% CI 0.63 to 1.77).
On the other hand, daily energy consumption in the third group was associated with a greater chance of having MCI (OR 2.41, 95% CI 1.51 to 3.86).
There was also a significant trend (P<0.001) for increasing caloric consumption to increase the risk of MCI, they reported.
One implication of the study might be that "cutting calories and eating foods that make up a healthy diet may be a simpler way to prevent memory loss as we age," Geda said.
Aggarwal told MedPage Today the study includes a large number of non-demented people from the general community in the U.S., which might make the results relatively widely applicable.
However, some questions remain including:
- What sort of questionnaire was used and how it was administered and interpreted?
- Was there an effect of male or female sex or race and ethnicity?
- Did the researchers distinguish between amnestic MCI, in which memory is affected, and MCI in which other cognitive domains, such as orientation, language, and executive function, are impaired?
The study was supported by the NIH, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the Robert H. and Clarice Smith and Abigail van Buren Alzheimer's Disease Research Program.
The authors did not report any conflicts of interest in the AAN abstract.

Ex-football player dies in accidental shooting
Marcus Dixon was homeless as a young teenager. He was in a motorcycle accident as a youth that nearly killed him. His life made a "180-degree turn" after a Stamford family adopted him at 17. He played football at West Point.
Dixon's dramatic life ended at age 22 in Stamford on Thursday night when he removed the magazine from his .45-caliber Glock pistol, and tried to demonstrate to friends that it was safe by pulling the trigger with the gun pointed at his head.
One round was hidden in the chamber and Dixon fatally shot himself, police said.
"I have him in mind when I talk to the kids and tell them that they can achieve what ever they want no matter where they come from," Stamford High School Head Coach Bryan Hocter said. "He came from nothing and what he achieved in his life was remarkable."
Dixon never knew his biological mother. He said in an interview four years ago that his father dropped him off in Stamford when he was in seventh grade with the parting words: "Kid, you're on your own now."
He managed to avoid foster homes. While bouncing around from one friend's home to another, he became friends with 15-year-old Lauren McInerney. After her family took a liking to Dixon, Rose and Barry McInerney tracked his father down and legally adopted Marcus. Dixon said four years ago that it turned his life around.
"If there was any question about who you wanted on your side, I would pick Marcus Dixon," said Kevin Jones, who coached the Stamford High School football team when Dixon was a player.
Dixon's acceptance to West Point "was probably one of the finest moments of my professional career," Jones said. "For him to go to West Point was such a great turnaround."
Jones, who kept up with his former player through the years, said Dixon played for the U.S. Military Academy Preparatory School after graduating from Stamford High School in 2009. He played for the Army team at West Point under the name Marcus McInerney two years ago, but did not play any games, Jones said. Last year, he opted out of the football program to concentrate on academics, Jones said.
Hocter said he ran into Dixon at the Stamford Government Center in July while Dixon was taking an exam in hopes of becoming a police officer.
"He was dressed really nicely, and spoke very well. I told him that I did not recognize him. He said, `Coach, I have grown up and come a long way,'" Hocter said.
Shortly after 7 p.m. Thursday, Dixon was showing his gun to two friends in the rear apartment at 785 Stillwater Road in Stamford, where he moved two weeks ago, police said.
Stamford Police Capt. Richard Conklin said Dixon, who obtained his pistol permit in the last six months, may have believed the weapon he was holding had a magazine disconnect safety, which makes the gun inoperable when the magazine is removed.
But Conklin said Dixon's pistol did not have that safety feature.
Stamford police Lt. Diedrich Hohn said Dixon was pronounced dead at the scene, and drugs or alcohol do not appear to be a factor in the death.
"There was nothing illegal. It was a tragic accident," Hohn said.
A woman at the home declined to comment on Dixon, but acknowledged the incident did happen at the address.
When police and paramedics arrived at the scene, two of his friends were performing CPR on Dixon but he could not be resuscitated, Hohn said.
Laura Dembofsky, a senior at the University of Connecticut, said several of her current classmates from Stamford gathered Thursday night when they heard about Dixon's death.
"He was friends with everybody. ... Regardless of athletics, he was one of the nicest people I've ever met," she said. "Everyone knows he was always smiling and encouraging everybody."
UConn senior Katie Pape, a friend of Dixon's in high school, said Dixon would challenge his friends "to be a better person."
"He could do something so simple as break a smile and brighten your day," Pape said. "He could make you feel better about yourself."
Jones remembered his former team captain as one of the hardest-working players he has encountered during his career.
"Marcus had a lot of rough spots in his life and did not have it easy growing up," said Jones, now a sports agent for JL Sports in Branford. "When he came to us, there were a lot of things that we needed to address that had nothing to do with football, but we used football as a way to deal with them. The turnaround that kid made is probably the greatest I have ever seen in my 20 years of coaching."
Jones said Dixon was blessed with a mature body when he was young and had a tremendous work ethic. The team was 5-5 in Dixon's senior year, during which he rushed for 977 yards and scored two touchdowns. He also had 35 tackles on defense.
Stamford High School offensive coordinator Riis Lane called Dixon "invincible." He recalled that Dixon was in critical condition following a motorcycle accident around the time he was in eighth grade. Lane said he feared Dixon would not survive the injuries.
A year or two later Dixon was playing great football, Lane said.
"On the football field he would take hits and give hits like you would never expect and he would just spring up. He was amazing," Lane said.
Lane, who met Dixon in eighth grade, said he noticed a big turnaround when he went to live with the McInerneys.
"There was a big difference after he was adopted. He worked on his anger. He was very polite to everybody. If two guys were fighting, instead of taking sides he would try to sit down and talk to them," Lane said.
Hocter recalled sitting with Dixon one day when he pulled out his lunch and showed him all of the food Rose McInerney packed for him that day. Dixon had five sandwiches and said there was no way he would be able to eat it all, Hocter said.
"Marcus said they were a blessing from heaven. He would say to me `I don't know what I ever did to deserve these people,' " Hocter said.
Dixon was always a pillar of strength on the Stamford team, said Hocter, his former coach.
"He had that wow factor about him when you met him. He was very engaging. But he was a soft-spoken individual. He overcame his issues and became such a fine young man," Hocter said.
Four years ago, Dixon reflected on how dramatically his life had changed. "Every day I always thought to myself how unlucky I was," Dixon said. "It used to get me so mad. It just didn't seem fair. But today, it's the exact opposite. I feel so lucky."

Must we use "could" with "would"?
I'm only wondering whether I've become conditioned to what is possible by teaching English.
It would seem to me that this sentence does not conform to the forms outlined in grammar books and grammar references.
I notice this occurs with conditional sentences from time to time.
So, I have to wonder whether or not teaching English is affecting what I would say and what I would not say. Or have I always spoken like this or like that?
I don't know.

Eddy Merckx Road Bikes
Eddy Merckx is widely regarded as the greatest ever road cyclist, winner of 11 Grand Tours (5 Tour de France victories, 5 Giro d'Italia and 1 Vuelta), all five Monuments, breaking the Hour record, World Championships and countless other achievements. Nicknamed The Cannibal due to his ruthless racing style, after retiring from professional cycling Eddy founded his Belgian bike company in March 1980. Inspired by Ugo De Rosa (of De Rosa fame) Merckx setup his first factory in Meise, and due to the popularity of the brand later moved to Zellik. The brand has a strong tradition of employing former riders, such as Jos Huysmans, Edouard Janssens, and Bob Lelangue, which lends further credibility to the brand as well as providing valuable employment after cycling. Initially bikes were constructed from steel, but this was later surpassed by aluminium as material of choice. After a brief dabble in titanium, a large proportion of Merckx bikes are now constructed from carbon due to it's high strength and low weight properties. In 2008 Eddy retired as CEO, but still provides input as a consultant to the engineers. Famous riders that have competed on Merckx bikes include Erik Zabel, Robbie McEwen, Tom Boonen, Frankie Andreu, Lance Armstrong and George Hincapie - if the bikes are good enough for Eddy and riders of that calibre, then you can guarantee they won't let you down.

About Merlin Cycles
This cycling deal was found at Merlin Cycles, one of the UK's most famous bike shops, located up North!
Merlin Cycles started life in 1993, founded by John Moss as a mail order Mountain Bike business ran directly from his spare bedroom in Chorley. Due to early growth, shortly afterwards he opened his first outlet in Ormskirk, and a few years later in 1998, the company grew into larger premises, moving to Leyland.
In the 1990's and early 2000's, Merlin were known for their ranges of mountain bike hardtails, released under the Rock Lobster and Merlin "Malt" brands. These steel and aluminium hardtails were designed in house, available as framesets or complete bikes, representing excellent value for money. The company was also well known for their handbuilt MTB wheels, which in my experience lasted for years without needing truing!
Merlin have always been competitive on pricing, particularly on suspension forks, brakes, wheels and groupsets, which continues to this day. Nowadays they have introduced road cycling equipment and clothing into their product ranges, due to the increase in popularity in this field, thus catering for a broader range of cyclists.

Q: One visitor asked, "We are buying an 1700 square foot home (approx) which is 30 years old. Underneath all of the carpeting, including the second story of the home, is hardwood flooring. We would like to have the flooring refurbished and were wondering how much money we would be looking at. It is currently a light stain and we would like to have it stained darker. There is a living room, dining room, staircase and upstairs hallway, together with 4 small bedrooms which we would like to have done. Is this going to cost thousands of dollars or can it be done quite reasonably? "
A: Is this going to cost thousands of dollars? Well, yes it is. You have a large area. Hardwood flooring is not like picking up a paint brush and roller. It takes years to learn how to refinish floors. Not to mention the cost of equipment. (Estimate of price removed due to age of question/being outdated.) I don't use sealers as a base coat for oil modified polyurethanes. Instead, I apply polyurethane with a lambswool applicator, buffed between each coat to assure adhesion. The first thing you need to determine is if your floors are salvageable. An old 3/8 thick strip floor is good for 2 sandings. It has already been sanded at least once and most likely twice. How much is left? I will be the last person to want you to waist your money. You need to think this through carefully. Hardwood flooring is a great investment in your house. If what you already have is done, then, a 3/4 thick floor will be the way to go.

>Did not buffing between coats cause this?
>We had the flooring company come back a second time tofill in some gaps and buff and put another coat on. We now have veryvisible air bubbles in our urethane finish (they were not present the first time). What is the best way to remove the air bubbles?
>I have two rooms. One is 9x12 the other 11x20. They are already stained with a royal mahogony minwax stain. It has a high gloss finish and the finish is now scratched and starting to peel. What do you suggest we do, strip and sand right down? What would the cost be approximately? How long would it take?
>At a doorway my urethane finish has lots of debris in it. How do I fix this?
>A contractor just finished installing/finishing my hardwood floors and left multiple lap marks (covering the entire width of the floor). What should be done about them?

>There are some worn areas on our floor that need refinishing. Is it possible to redo only the worn areas andhave them blend into the older finished areas without redoing the entire floor?

>What do I do now that my finish is peeling off because there is wax in the grain?
>What do we do about problems with swirl marks in the floor finish?
>Why did the polyurethane peel right off?
>There always seems to be a film on the floor and they show all the dirt. Can I remove the 'shiny' top coat and redo with something more 'matte'?
>We have sanded off all the old stain, used the 120 grit to give a smoother finish, used a polyurethane but it still looks dull. I was reading on sanding tips and it says that after we sand the stain off, put the new stain on, then add the polyurethane, to sand it again lightly with a 120 grit and then add another coat of polyurethane for a smoother finish. Is that correct?
>We have put on 2 coats of water based polyurethane on our floors. The floor feels rough. How do you get that hard smooth finish?
>We have done the second coat of polyurethane but the floor is still rough and not shiny! What do we do now?
>The polyurethane coat on our hardwood flooring is peeling and flaking. I was able to scrape off most of the coat in one room. Should I apply wax or polyurethane?
>I just applied stain and poly. Why are my floors sticky?
>Why is my stain not drying faster?
>We stained our floors. Why are some areas lighter than the rest?

Angelina Jolie's Op-Ed in the New York Times about getting a double mastectomy after learning that she was at risk of getting breast cancer struck a chord with fellow celebs as well as with Los Angeles Times staffers Anna Gorman and Paul Whitefield, who wrote about their own experiences Tuesday.
Jolie's Op-Ed specifically focuses on BRCA1 and BRCA2, known as the breast cancer genes. "I have always told [my kids] not to worry [about me getting cancer], but the truth is I carry a 'faulty' gene, BRCA1, which sharply increases my risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer," she writes.
So Jolie did what she could to take control of the matter and elected to have all of her breast tissue removed, thereby reducing her chance of developing breast cancer from close to 90% to under 5%. She then wrote about the experience to raise awareness and empower other women.
How much control we, as a society, have over BRCA1 and BRCA2, and human genes in general, however, is yet to be determined.
The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are currently at the center of a controversial case before the U.S. Supreme Court that asks whether it should be legal to patent human genes.
In an Op-Ed about the case, Marcy Darnovsky, executive director of the Center for Genetics and Society, and Karuna Jaggar, executive director of Breast Cancer Action, argued in our Opinion pages:
The patents give one biotechnology company, Myriad Genetics Inc., sweeping control of the two genes. Myriad's monopoly harms women's health, impedes cancer research and raises important ethical questions about control over the human genome. […]
Genes are not inventions but products of nature. You can't patent the sun; you can't patent a new species of insect you find in a forest; you can't patent the speed of light. And you cannot patent human genes.
Beyond U.S. patent law lie broader questions: Should we treat human genes as private property to be exploited for profit rather than shared resources managed in the public interest? Should we allow corporate ownership to penetrate deeply into areas previously considered outside the commercial realm? […]
A ruling in favor of the plaintiffs in this landmark case could effectively outlaw human gene patents. It would be a victory for all who put the public's health and interests above efforts to privatize what all of us should share. And it would restore our genomic heritage, the very DNA in our bodies, to the rightful owners — the people.
In a rebuttal, Peter D. Meldrum, president and chief executive of Salt Lake City-based Myriad Genetics Inc., wrote:
The issue before the Supreme Court is not about Myriad. This is about the consequences to the life sciences -- and for innovation. If isolated genetic materials cannot be patented, we'll see a loss of cutting-edge services with enormous benefit to society.
In a blog post Tuesday, Times editorial board member Jon Healey brought up another issue of significant consequence:
The monopoly provided by Myriad's patents allows the company to control the price of the test and determine what sort of research will be conducted. Opponents complain the price is so high that some lower-income women can't afford it. They also object to the idea of any company acting as a gatekeeper to medical research. The trove of data Myriad collects in its tests could be extremely valuable to researchers, but according to [ACLU staff attorney Sandra] Park, the company has stopped contributing its results to an international database on the BRCA genes.
The Times' editorial board has also weighed in on the case. An excerpt from an editorial in January makes this case:
The public clearly benefits from the investments that private companies make in genetic research. But it doesn't necessarily follow that barring patents for gene sequences would lead to fewer breakthroughs on genes and their correlations with disease. There is a virtually insatiable demand for better diagnostic tools and more efficient and effective treatments. The amount we know about health and disease pales in comparison to what we don't know. This demand for advancement provides a powerful incentive for companies to seek their fortunes in discoveries. Even if a gene can't be patented, its discovery can lead to diagnostic and treatment techniques that can be.
That's a policy choice, though, not a legal issue. It amounts to a judgment call about whether it's right to give a company control over access to essential pieces of information about the body's natural programming, and whether it makes sense to trust that company to share the information freely with researchers and license it widely to competitors. On both of those questions, we think the answer is no.

19 Listen, open your ears, harness your desire to speak, and don't get worked up into a rage so easily, my brothers and sisters. 20 Human anger is a futile exercise that will never produce God's kind of justice in this world. 21 So walk out on your corrupt liaison with smut and depraved living, and humbly welcome the word of truth that will blossom like the seed of salvation planted in your souls.
22 Put the word into action. If you think hearing is what matters most, you are going to find you have been deceived.
God the Father is the giver of all things and is looking for every opportunity to bless us. But many people have difficulty trusting and receiving good things, even when those things come from God. The problem is that we not only have trouble trusting God's work in our lives, but we also don't always respond to God's voice. People often hear the Scriptures but don't really listen. People store truths in their brains but never put them to use. For James, the only good religion is religion lived out every day.
23-24 If some fail to do what God requires, it's as if they forget the word as soon as they hear it. One minute they look in the mirror, and the next they forget who they are and what they look like. 25 However, it is possible to open your eyes and take in the beautiful, perfect truth found in God's law of liberty and live by it. If you pursue that path and actually do what God has commanded, then you will avoid the many distractions that lead to an amnesia of all true things and you will be blessed.
26 If you put yourself on a pedestal, thinking you have become a role model in all things religious, but you can't control your mouth, then think again. Your mouth exposes your heart, and your religion is useless. 27 Real, true religion from God the Father's perspective is about caring for the orphans and widows who suffer needlessly and resisting the evil influence of the world.

Rebuilding my xstar stereo
Need some help guys!
I have a 2007 mastercraft xstar. My husband bought me the 7.7 speakers for the front of the boat for my Christmas present. I still need the 2 10" subs and tower speakers not to mention the amps.
My questions ...
1. What size amps (stock) does this boat come with?
2. What speakers do the amps push?
I know this boat had 2 amps, but I do not know the size in which they are nor which speakers they pushed. So I need some help re building it back to stock.
Thanks boys!!!!
I'm reaching deep into my memory, and I want to say that back in 07, the factory in-boat setup would have been 6 in-boats and a 10" Infinite-Baffle (free-air) sub all powered by the JL M6600. If i am reading your post correctly, you boat only has 4 in-boats in the main cabin, no sub and no amp. is this correct? Knowing all the components that need to be driven makes making an amp recommendation easier.
Strangely enough, Ive seen a pair of the OEM JL tower speakers piggy-backed off the same amp along with those in-boats speakers.
im pretty sure all mastercraft boats that are like 2003-2004 up come factory with 6 7.7 jl inboat speakers. 4 in the cockpit and 2 up front. i dont know about the x star but i know the x45s and 80s come with a factory free air jl 10.
your boat factory should have 2 600/6 jl amps
one amp runs all the inside speakers except the sub
the other amp runs 4 factory tower speakers the jl 7.7 and they bridge the 2 xtra channels left over for the factory sub. atleast thats how my x80 was done.
03-04 were Clarion, 05 and on all were JL and all XStar's had one 10" free air sub and six speakers throughout. XStar only came with one amp unless you ordered tower speakers. I dont remember the JL amp rating per amp
Just trying to understand it situation.
2007 xstar and all audio has been gutted?
Dont get too hung up on going back exatly "stock" This is not a 63' vette with matching numbers.
Consider it a gift you dont have to deal with the restrictions of what the mfg cut the best deal on and install what will sound good to you and meets your needs.
You have to work backward. Decide on all speakers, then use amps that provide the necessary power, then wire approprately and mount extra batteries if your goal is to play more than 2 hrs coved. Dont forget an onboard charger to plug in at the end of the day.
The JL 7.7 sound good and locations are sized for them so go ahead and go back for easy install.
Subs and enclosures are one area a professional can make a huge difference in sound. You are spending the $$$ on JL 7.7, match it with good sound vs the compromise of free air. I would look at Rockford or Kicker.
Wet Sounds on the tower. A pair of 10" or bang it with a 3 some if you are looking for serious tower sound.
Use separate amps for highs and subs. ARC's KAR, Rockford Power or Alpine PDX.
Why not JL for the subs or amps? Do a comparative listen. IMO, JL's attempt at total accuracy restricts sound output, especially in an environment that is not about total accuracy. Not to mention the premium of the JL name.
If the $$$ are rolling up to fast for you, this first place I would cut back are the JL in-boats. In-boats have the least bearing on overall sound when compared to subs and tower. You can go in with MTX or others that cost less.
Last edited by bsloop; 01-02-2013 at 05:45 PM.
Having an onboard charger is a great idea. Thanks!
Wait just a minute. A little misinformation here.
It all depends on your personal expectations. One size doesn't fit all.
If you are building a 'donk' style system for Hip Hop then all you need is bass thump and high frequency sizzle for balance. Sure, then in-boat speakers are minimized.
But if you are actually looking for sound quality while cruising at low speed or at rest 'in' the boat then it's hard not to prioritize the wrap-around in-boat coaxials that handle eight of ten octaves. That's where you'll find all the musical contrast in most forms of music. You can't have plausible bass without excellent midbass contribution from the coaxials and no coaxial has better midbass than an in-boat IB JL Audio 7.7". You can always drop back from the JL M series to the JL MX series. So I would highly recommend staying on course with the JL Audio 7.7s unless you are building a very biased and singular type of system.
In JL's pursuit of musical accuracy they do not limit subwoofer output. I'd like to read a coherent technical explanation on that one....even by a competing woofer company. However, there are certain woofers that purposely limit the bandwidth in order to create more peak output over a narrower range. That's the trade-off. Not just accuracy versus output...but accuracy AND bandwidth versus peak. And that trade-off in itself is fine for some people who are after a 'percussive' and monotonous bass that is described as 'thump', 'slam', 'boom', and 'hit'. Of course you can manipulate the JL Audio sub in much the same manner and increase it's peak output depending on the enclosure design.
I'm not discouraging any particular system path if it's what the individual wants. But alot depends on the music type and what your personal taste/lifestyle/usage is going to be.

Spectacular Opening Day In Palma For Melges 32 Worlds
20 September 2011
Palma de Mallorca, Spain - Far beneath the air traffic of Palma's very busy airport, the opening day of the 2011 Melges 32 World Championship, hosted by Real Club Nautico de Palma (RCNP), was remarkable. Brilliant sunny skies, 10-12 knots of breeze and lumpy seas set the stage on Palma Bay. After two races, John Kilroy's Samba Pa Ti with tactician Vasco Vascotto holds the lead by one point, ahead of Vincenzo Onorato's Mascalzone Latino and tactician Francesco Bruni in second overall. Seated in third is fellow American Alexis Michas on Zetiana with Brian Ledbetter onboard calling tactics.
The first race of the day kicked off with a clean start. Kilroy, Jason Carroll and tactician Cameron Appleton on Argo launched off the pin end of the starting line, Steve Howe's Warpath right alongside. Onorato looked to port tack right behind the fleet in search of clean air almost immediately after the start, enabling him to get up to speed fast. Great Britain's Peter Rogers onHighlife with Andy Horton on tactics took an early lead rounding the top mark in first. Reigning Audi Sailing Series Champion Lanfranco Cirillo with tactician Michele Paoletti on Fantastica followed in second, Onorato was third followed by Japan's Yukihiro Ishida on Yasha Samurai with Hamish Pepper on tactics in fourth. Ishida made great strides to advance as did Onorato. Both surpassed Rogers downwind, passing through the gate in first and second. Ishida managed to hold off Onorato's challenge for the lead with a photo finish at the line for the win. Onorato settled for second, Carroll was third, Howe fourth and Kilroy worked hard to take fifth.

Collisions kill 14 in weeks before holiday weekend ramp-up
The deaths of five people in a wrong-way collision Sunday increased the tally of drunken-driving deaths in Harris County to nine over the past eight days, prompting officials to plead with residents for responsibility over the upcoming holiday weekend.
The two crashes are among four since June 13 in which more than one person died, three of which led to intoxicated manslaughter charges.
"Folks, we have mobile land mines running around on our streets. And we cannot allow that any longer," Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia said during a news conference about the most recent wrecks. "It pains me to think that two families have been completely wiped out for the most part. They were just going about their daily lives. Our roadways should allow for us to do that."
Sunday's crash also comes days before authorities expect more DWI cases as drivers hit the road after celebrating the Fourth of July. The Houston Police Department as well as Harris County Sheriff's Office said they will send extra patrols to seek out drunken drivers and boaters.
Last year in Texas, eight people died in seven drunken-driving wrecks on the Fourth of July alone, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
From June 27 to July 7, 2013, HPD reported nine fatal wrecks, four of which were alcohol related. Harris County did not provide its count for that period.
So far this year in Harris County, 501 crashes involved drivers with a blood alcohol level above 0.08 percent, the legal limit of intoxication in Texas. In those, 48 people died.
Garcia lamented that the drivers charged in the recent fatal collisions likely were drinking with someone who could have stopped them from driving or submitted an anonymous police tip that might have prevented the deaths.
When first responders treated Efraim Carmona at the scene of Sunday's crash, his blood-alcohol level was 0.23 percent, officials said.
Authorities said he drove his flatbed 2009 Dodge Ram 5500 pickup east in the westbound lanes of the North Sam Houston Parkway. About 11 p.m, near John Ralston, he smashed into a white 2000 Ford F-150.
Five of the six family members packed into the extended cab were killed. Carmona has been charged with intoxication manslaughter.
"That's one of those ones you can't forget," Sgt. Susan Cotter said, noting that the last time Harris County deputies saw so many people killed in a single wreck was 12 years ago.
It had already been a difficult week, she said.
On the previous Sunday, deputies saw another family killed in a drunken-driving crash.
In that incident, four people in a Honda - Devendraprasad Patel, Kokila Patel, Ansuyaben Patel and Jayanthilal Bhatt - were killed when the driver of a Dodge Van ran a red light at Synott and Beechnut. Another relative remains hospitalized. Authorities reported Million Zeghergis had a blood-alcohol level of 0.11 percent. He also is charged with intoxication manslaughter.
Earlier in June, two other wrecks killed more than one person, one of which involved a drunken driver.
On June 14, driver Allyssa Munoz and passengers Brett Suarez and Carlos Cisneros-Zurita were killed and three injured in a hit-and-run. Raquel Vasquez Hernandez, 23, has been charged with four counts of failure to stop and render aid in an accident involving death.
On June 13, Alan Hernandez-Simental and Luis Martinez where killed when authorities said a drunk Jose A. Ortega Vasquez, 28, crashed his car into the concrete base of a light pole, killing his passengers. Vasquez was charged with intoxication manslaughter.
In Sunday's crash, a child of about 3 or 4 was among those in the F-150 killed. No one wore seat belts and a child seat was not found in the truck, according to the sheriff's office.
A girl in the front passenger seat, who investigators guessed to be 10 or 12, remained unresponsive and in critical condition at a local hospital late Monday.
The sheriff's office has been unable to identify the victims or find relatives, Cotter said.
"Nobody's out there," Cotter said. "She's alone."
Carmona was driving a truck belonging to ACME Truck Line Inc. in Alvin. Calls to the ACME office in Alvin were referred to their corporate office, where a spokeswoman said officials are aware of the crash and are conducting an investigation, but could not confirm whether Carmona was an employee.
Investigators found several containers of beer in Carmona's vehicle, sheriff's office officials said.

A McKinney man was sentenced to 74 years in prison Thursday after pleading guilty to sexually assaulting his 6-year-old step-granddaughter, according to the Collin County District Attorney's Office.
Peter John Ellington, 54, was sentenced to 54 years in prison for aggravated sexual assault of a child and 20 years for indecency with a child. State District Judge Scott J. Becker stacked the sentences, which means Ellington must serve each sentence separately.
The assault occurred in 2008, and the child told her mother about it the following year. Ellington was indicted in 2009. During the sentencing hearing Thursday, testimony showed that Ellington had committed domestic violence against two girlfriends in the 1990s. Prosecutors say he sexually assaulted one of them after the relationship ended but was punished for a lesser charge.
Ellington was a registered nurse and worked at numerous North Texas hospitals before quitting in 2010 to support himself with a carpet cleaning business he started in 2008.

The air filter for my 92 Toyota Celica GT convertible improved throttle response. Maybe the old filter were a little dirty but not really visible.
There are no customer reviews for this product
Reviewed By Brandon S (Alton, IL) Reviewed for a 2001 Toyota Celica —12/15/2011 8:27 PM
This pre filter screen does what it says. Just remember though that it is water resistant not water repellant. Therefore it does keep the majority of water out of the filter but some wetness may still occur especially while driving during heavy rains. However if you have a cold air intake that is routed towards the bottom of the vehicle like my AEM intake is......this product is a must!

The Mets will attempt to snap their road doldrums tonight in Milwaukee when Fernando Nieve (1-2, 5.09 ERA) comes out of the bullpen. It's not as if this is new to him, as he was 3-3 with a 3.12 ERA in seven starts last year before a torn right quadriceps ended his season.
"If he does well, he will continue to get the ball," manager Jerry Manuel said. "And if we come into a situation where we have too many starters, I think that's all good, too.''
The start comes after a rocky May in which had a 7.20 ERA for the month, perhaps brought on by over use. Nieve said he prefers this role.

The Medical Review Program helps ensure that CDL drivers meet Federal Regulation 49 CFR 391.41 Physical Qualifications for Drivers and CFR 391.43.
Starting May 21, 2014, all commercial motor vehicle drivers must have a physical performed by a medical examiner listed on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners.
We review the DOT Medical Examination Report (long form) and Medical Examiner Certificate (cert card, or short form) for completeness and ensure the medical examiner has qualified the driver according to Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Regulations.
Arizona requires all CDL drivers, including those in the military, to keep a current Medical Examiner Certificate on file with MVD. The Medical Examiner Certificate is to be renewed every 24 months or sooner, as determined by the medical examiner or by regulation. Failure to maintain a current certificate on file with MVD will result in the suspension and revocation of your CDL.
To check on your Arizona medical certification, see CDL Medical Status Verification. Once medical certification is submitted please allow 10 days for processing prior to checking status.
A courtesy expiration notice is sent to the driver 45 days prior to the expiration date. It is the responsibility of the driver to provide a new Medical Examiner Certificate on or before the expiration date of the document currently on file.
If you no longer wish to keep your CDL, you must go to an MVD office and downgrade to a regular Class D operator license or Class M motorcycle license prior to the expiration of the current medical certification, to avoid suspension, revocation or both. Application fees will apply.
If you receive a request for additional information this means your medical certification was incomplete, you require restrictions to be added to your license, or both. Please note that only the boxes marked apply to you. Corrections to your examination report must be initialed and dated by your physician.
Any request for restrictions to be added to your license can be done at any MVD office or CDL office. A duplicate license fee will be charged.
If you do not submit the requested information and/or add a required restriction in a timely manner, your CDL privilege will be suspended, revoked or both. If it becomes suspended, revoked or both, you may submit the requested information to a CDL office or by using our secure email system. You must visit a CDL office to reinstate your CDL and pay any applicable fees.
You may submit the Medical Examiner Certificate to the Medical Review Program by the following methods:

Question: My business shows a profit. In fact, it has been profitable during the economic downturn. That means it is valuable, right?
Answer: Not necessarily.
I had this discussion twice in the last week with mixed results. One business did have value while the other one not so much. Lets dig into why.
In a blog, Lisa Kable, president of CoreValue Software, discussed this very topic. In her words, Profit measures what happened yesterday. Value measures what can and will happen, not what happened yesterday.
Investors look for value. Remember, you are an investor in your business. To the extent you think as a manager and not as an investor, you are missing the key point. Think about a company listed on the stock exchange, perhaps General Electric or Apple. Public companies report the financial results for all to see. The focus of the reports is profit. But do you buy a stock to see profit or to see the stock go up in value as measured by the share price? Of course, profit is one of the components that affects value or share price, but there are many more factors in the value equation.
Investors do not buy stock because it did well in the past. They buy it because they expect it to do well in the future. The near-term expectation may not include much profit if the long-term expectation is that profit will be generated in the future.
Lets apply this thinking to your business in which you are the chief or sole investor. You are pleased that the firm showed a profit last year. However, you are more concerned with whether it will show a profit this year and, if it will, how much profit will it earn. For profit to grow, certain factors must be in place. The company must have sufficient working capital to handle anticipated growth. Management must be trained and skilled in guiding the firm. Sales, marketing and advertising plans must be revised and updated.
Equipment and accompanying processes and procedures must be tested, verified, updated and documented.
Financial reporting must be continually improved to provide needed intelligence for sound decision-making. Return on investment must be sufficient to compensate for the risk of investing in the business.
Perhaps most importantly, can the company operate without you or must you be there to make all decisions and oversee all operations? Do you think an outside investor would be interested in your business?
If you plan to exit your business with substantial cash in hand, you must make your business valuable. The future investor will not be interested in working 80 hours a week to eke out a living.
To be valuable, a business must be far beyond the survival stage. It must be a real business with real plans, real management and real value.
Dont misunderstand. A business with profit but no real value can perhaps be sold, but the price will be low, probably much below the owners expectations.
If you understand and take on the role of an investor in your company, everything will change. Begin with the realization that building value is not black magic. It is a process with defined steps.
Success is not guaranteed, but your odds of achieving a real payoff improve enormously.

A section of historic East Third Avenue was closed for about 2½ hours Tuesday while firefighters extinguished a small blaze on the side of a house.
The fire was reported about 11:45 a.m. in the 900 block of East Third Avenue. The southbound lane was closed until 2:15 p.m. to allow firefighters to work.
Construction workers using a flame device to remove ice around the rock facade at the base of the structure started the fire, said Fire Marshal Karola Hanks, with Durango Fire & Rescue Authority.
Flames moved up the side and into a crawl space inside the house, she said.
Its confined to that crawl space, Hanks said. We have minor smoke damage inside the house.
Any time fire enters the voids of a structure, there is the potential for flames to crawl through the framework, Hanks said. Firefighters were on the ground feeling for heat, she said.
Weve got guys crawling around on their bellies down there looking for hot spots, Hanks said. Theres just about enough room for a firefighter between the foundation and the floor joists.
Firefighters planned to monitor the house for 24 hours to make sure all the hot spots were extinguished.
