"They're basically broadening me, making me wider," he explains, adding that the technology being used on the film is making for long, hard working days. "But let me say, this guy will terrify the life out of you. I have a Mohawk and tattoos on my head. You've got to see it."The credits do not list Connolly (but then again they do credit Cumberbatch, and as the Necromancer appears as a silhouette in a single CGI shot, that might just as easily have been Fred from Accounting). Anyway, did we see Connolly in a quick, uncredited cameo?
It has been quite clear since 2001 that when you sit down with your popcorn, you are watching Peter Jackson's Middle-earth. If that's not for you, that's completely fine.The Hobbit fits in just fine as a part of the movie franchise, and that is, I think, what it needed to do to be a coherent work. Not that I don't have quibbles - the pacing makes it seem very much like it was structured as the first third of a nine-hour movie, not as a movie in itself, among other things - but I think if you're focusing on changes from the text you're missing the point.
It is hardly begun when it appears that the orcs, goblins and wargs are about to turn the battle into a massacre, overwhelming the elves, men and dwarves. Then, Bilbo points to the sky, "Eagles!" he exclaims and suddenly a rock falls from above, hits him on the head, and the screen goes black.I realize this is a side point, but this isn't really accurate. In my hardcover copy, there are five full pages of battle description and several turns in the tide of battle before Bilbo is knocked out. It's specifically stated that they've gone through most of the day at that point. So, the battle is not "hardly begun" nor is it a massacre-the elves/men/dwarves have given what they've got, over the course of a long day.
The movie returns and Bilbo wakes to the whimpering miscellaneous sounds of a battle's aftermath. Thorin dying. Others dead. Beorn's contribution completely omitted as well the impact of the eagles.

Here's a rumor I never saw coming. According to a source who spoke to Hollywood Life, Teen Mom Jenelle Evans married degenerate Courtland Rogers for his money and Courtland married Jenelle for her fame. You mean to tell me that these kids, each with their own kids, who had a quickie courthouse wedding and filed for divorce mere weeks later, weren't actually in love? Knock me over with a feath.
Personally, the most interesting part of this whole story is, wait, Courtland has money?
Evidently, he's known as a rich kid 'round town (that town being, of course, Oak Island, North Carolina, population 6,500) -- his dad owns a KFC/Taco Bell and allegedly supports his whole family, including his 20-something adult son, Courtland.
In the past, Jenelle bragged that Courtland "has money like that" after he bought her a $3,000-plus engagement ring, and went on to clarify that his cash doesn't come from selling drugs. Whoa! Who brought up drugs?
Anyway, if Jenelle really did marry Courtland for his money, it might explain why it was so easy for her to walk away. A handful of rage-filled, immature tweets and their marriage was over faster than you could say, "Wanna make a miscarriage together?"
Since they were never in love, makes sense that she could call things off like that.
And the allegation that Courtland only married Jenelle for his 15 minutes of fame? No. No way. You don't say. I can't believe it. Stop. You mean it was a bad sign when he tattooed his stomach with the words "Almost Famous"? Consider me shocked.
Why do you think Courtland and Jenelle got married?
Photo via Twitter
Even more surprising, people are still writing about them like they are important and/or famous. I wonder what fuels this fire?
now is that suppose to be a surprise lol i think she is a joke just like the guys she dates
She has became stright trash. Teen mom 1 i was one her side calling her mom the biggest B!tch for taking jace away. Now I thank god her mom took Jace away. i wish she would loose all rights. She rather sleep aound and fight with her mom then spend ten minutes with Jace. That poor kid is going to get old enough to wash these videos one day. Then he will cut Jenelle out of his life for good. She is trash and so are the many many many men she dates.
ok they are teens and stupid. But your an adult making cheap shots on a miscarriage. That is so mature; You bash the girls but do you make money off them. Or would you have to make a blog about something that mattered.
Any one could have guessed that.

We discussed this last year, but the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival remains the preeminent mobile showcase of alternative music of any type. It has been so successful in six years that it has not only overshadowed the Warp Tour, but has spawned a second, smaller circuit, the Uproar Festival. Mayhem Fest is one of those special times of year when all the major and minor metal labels, from Universal and Atlantic to Century Media, Metal Blade and Nuclear Blast and including Victory and Sumerian, join forces to show off their product and give the fans the best possible experience.
I'm going out on a limb, here. "Relentless, Reckless Forever" is one of the best fifty albums ever. EVER. And I know I'm going out on a limb by saying that because I know that the other two gentlemen who write about music for this site, whose opinions I very much respect, both heartily disagree with me. But that's the way I feel, and that was my mindset as I encountered "Halo of Blood."
I have long theorized that music in general works in cycles of twenty to twenty-five years, and that what's old can continually be made new again, like doctoring up that potato salad for one last go-around. To wit, in the 1990's, Pantera, Alice in Chains and the rest of grunge listed their influences as Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and the classic rock of the 70's. In the 1970's, Led Zeppelin and their cohorts listed their influences as Chuck Berry, Blind Lemon Jefferson, and the blues and rock musicians of the 50's.
It actually takes several listenings of "Relentless, Reckless Forever" to appreciate everything that's going on. That said, if the listener has the patience to get over the initial confusion of what he or she is hearing, the album's petals will unfold into a blooming heavy metal flower.
Okay, with all the recent "best [blank] of the decade" going on, I decided it was high time I got involved. Seeing as how I can only proclaim myself to be an expert in a few things, and "best pork roast recipes of the decade" didn't seem terribly theme appropriate, I got to thinking about heavy metal, as I so often do.
Children of Bodom's covers album is both a tribute to artists the band loves, and a tongue-in-cheek mockery of artists they love to hate.
Unlike many of their Scandinavian brethren, Children of Bodom has an obvious sense of humor regarding their particular brand of black metal, and that sense shines through on "Skeletons in the Closet."
I was no mood to go to a show. It's rare that I say that. It was a Sunday night following two hellish weeks at work, with a third on deck. I had no desire to drive the fifty miles round trip to the venue, especially for a band I'd seen before. I needed to sleep.
Still, I already had my ticket in my wallet, and I figured once I got over myself, pried my eyes off of televised football and got my ass to the club, I'd be happier for being there. So, I crammed myself into my car and away I went.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

Caramelized Baked Beans from A Summertime Grilling Guide from The Splendid Table
Buy BOOK
To celebrate the release of A Summertime Grilling Guide from The Splendid Table, I am attempting to grill my way through the book's many surprising recipes. To catch up on previous dishes and read extended journal entries, you can follow my blog here.
A few weeks ago, I described my 15 minute rule for cooking. This recipe in no way meets the 15 minute rule but was worth the effort despite a few self-inflicted problems along the way.
The taste and smell of the beans are intoxicating. As Lynne states, "they are unlike any baked beans they know. Sticky, sweet-tart and smoky." This is more than a bean dish, it is a hotdish - a meal unto itself.
I will say, something went wrong in step one and I never quite recovered. I boiled water and poured over the beans and soaked them for the recommended two hours. I drained them and put them in a 6 Qt pot and covered with water, being sure to add the garlic, all spice and onions. I don't think I had the heat high enough when simmering because the beans never seemed to get tender as the book states.
I soldiered on though and completing all the remaining steps and placing the beans in the oven. After 2 hours, I tasted them and the beans were still hard, not even firm, thus I left them in the oven. After 6 hours, I gave up and decided to serve them as is. The reaction from the group was mixed about the beans… some liked the beans a bit on the firmer side and some thought they should be more tender… I can't do anything about that. The one thing everyone in the group did agree on was that the flavor of the beans were among the best anyone had ever tasted. I do say that the bacon has a lot to do with that … nothing has the flavor of good bacon and when combined with cooking in the same pot and leaving some of the bacon fat, the result is AMAZING. This is a dish you are sure to enjoy!
The caramelized baked beans are a dish I will prepare again. The flavors were wonderful, even with a bean that still seemed a tad hard. Since it doesn't meet my own 15 minute rule, I would prepare this dish a few days ahead and then refrigerate until the day of the gathering and possibly heat them on the grill while your main dish cooks.
Follow along with my continued adventures as I grill my way through the new A Summertime Grilling Guide from The Splendid Table and share your grilling experiences with us on our Facebook fanpage.

Ruben Fleischer Offers ZOMBIELAND 2 Update; Says There Are No Immediate Plans for the Film and Teases Storyline
by Adam Chitwood Posted 1 year, 255 days ago
Zombies have invaded the zeitgeist like not much else over the past few years, but undoubtedly one of the best things to come out of this so-called "zombie craze" is director Ruben Fleischer's 2009 comedy Zombieland. Boosted by an incredibly strong cast, a whip-smart and funny script, excitingly refreshing visuals from Flesicher, and one of the best cameos in recent memory, the pic grossed over $100 million against a budget of just $23 million. Shortly after its release, talk turned to a sequel, but development on the follow-up has slowed considerably over the past couple of years.
Fleischer is poised to make his big budget debut with the crime drama Gangster Squad, opening this coming Friday, and Steve recently sat down with the filmmaker for an exclusive interview. During the course of their conversation, Fleischer offered an update on Zombieland 2, revealing that there are no immediate plans for the sequel and development stalled because they didn't have a script that everyone was happy with. Furthermore, Fleischer teased the storyline that they had come up with for the follow-up. Hit the jump to see what he had to say.

IAB bids to boost affiliate marketing's standing
The Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB) is preparing to publish a report that will measure the economic impact of the affiliate marketing industry to improve perceptions of the often criticised industry, as part of a wider analysis of the performance marketing category.
The IAB hopes to be able to quantify how many sales are attributable to performance marketing channels such as affiliate marketing.
Performance marketing disciplines such as lead generation, search and display advertising will also be covered in the report.
It will also look to measure how much is spent on performance marketing and how many jobs are directly and indirectly supported by the industry.
The report will also provide a resource to help non-industry parties such as regulators to better understand the industry, its contribution and part in growing new business channels for SMEs.
If commissioned, it will be led by the IAB's Affiliate Marketing Council, which is headed up by Clare O'Brien, and carried out by an independent, third party research firm.
According to the annual IAB/PwC ad spend figures, the affiliate marketing sector was worth £85 million in 2011 and accounted for £4bn in terms of online retail sales.
The Direct Marketing Association published a similar report earlier this year in a bid to stave of criticism from regulators and strengthen its lobbying efforts.
Earlier this year The Office of Fair Trading warned affiliate marketers over using misleading promotions after an investigation into affiliate network MoreNiche found it was passing off paid-for advertisements as independent consumer reviews.
Readers' comments (2)
Forget garbage links and shady programs; the problem isn't affiliate marketing overall but rather the networks which host even the biggest, most reputable merchant programs (Walmart, Zappos, Sears, etc). They are notorious for stealing traffic, reversing / skimming commissions, and generally picking the pockets of their publishers.
If you have decent traffic/users, working directly with merchants can be a wonderful & profitable experience.
This is a great idea. The likes of moneysavingexpert or Compare The Market are only really around because of performance marketing...
But, this would mean the affiliate marketing /performance marketing channel will also be blamed for the Go Compare adverts!

Cake Frosting Tip: Leave the Sides Naked!
The hardest part of making a pretty layer cake is usually frosting around the sides—filling in gaps, spreading at an awkward angle, working fast enough so that the icing doesn't slide onto the countertop... But if you want to keep the process stress-free, try leaving the sides un-frosted. It can be just as pretty.
This technique works great if you have a fluffy filling, maybe one dotted with fruit or nuts. You'll have plenty of frosting, since you don't need it for the sides, so add a little extra in between each cake layer to make it dramatic. Then plop some on the top, and you're finished.
We think it also looks nice to have two different textures and colors, like a frosting in the middle and a ganache on the top. In fact, chocolate ganache is the perfect icing to use in this situation. It drips beautifully down the sides, eliminating the need to do anything else.
Here are the recipes pictured above:
• Chocolate-Orange Layer Cake, from Cooking Light (top).
• Ginger-Pecan Cake, from Martha Stewart (above).
Is this anyone's go-to technique? Any other tips?

It seems like this would work at party where the cake will be consumed quickly, but otherwise wouldn't it dry out faster? Even when covered properly, the part of the cake that is cut and exposed is noticeably drier than the interior each time I go for another piece. The frosting usually acts as a barrier to keep moisture in.
louiedog is right, the frosting is there to be delicious AND to protect the cake. But a baked edge won't dry out nearly as fast as a cut interior surface, that's when you get the hard crusty crumbs no one likes.
i just did a 3 layer, fully frosted cake for easter and was not aware that frosting sliding off and odd angles where an issue...like at all.
don't get me wrong i'm digging the look of these unfrosted cakes, but don't do it just because you can't frost one properly.
i am not a professional and have not taken a cake class. Frosting a whole cake to be smooth is easy, and if you are having these problems you need to get yourself some offset spatulas and a new frosting recipe.
I love this idea! The sides are always the part I mess up, no matter if I freeze the cake, do a crumb coat, etc.
This is my go-to style for cakes! I'm not crazy about icing anyway, but I think it makes cakes look elegant, and it's much easier.
As one of those people who pretty much only likes cake for the icing...you just rendered this cake pointless :-P.
Your icing shouldn't slide off the cake if a)the cake is completely cooled and b)the frosting is thick enough. If it's too slidey, add in a pit of confectioner's sugar to thicken it up.
i actually like cakes like this, too much frosting and it overpowers the cake! but yes it does dry out faster.
I'm a frosting clod, and I will definitely be going this route in future. Although I recently tried out a new-to-me vegan frosting that was WAY easier to work with than the usual buttercream. But like I said, I'm a frosting clod.
Ok, so the cake pictured, that's more of a glaze than frosting, in which case, it will run off the side, so don't "frost" a cake with a "glaze."
one of my favorite bloggers introduced me to this and I love how it looks- see here: http://rosylittlethings.typepad.com/posie_gets_cozy/2010/06/my-goto-birthday-cake.html
ps-the frosting is the best i've ever had!!

A broken sewer pipe under Drayton Harbor will cost taxpayers another $120,000, according to Blaine public works officials.
Bellingham-based Boss Construction has been working since August 2011 to install 2,200 feet of pipe under Drayton Harbor that will carry wastewater from the Semiahmoo water treatment plant to the Lighthouse Point water reclamation facility at the end of Marine Drive. This work will allow Blaine public works to close the Semiahmoo plant and rely solely on the Lighthouse Point facility, acting Blaine public works director Bill Bullock said.
The construction project called for new sewer pipe to be threaded through an older, unused stretch of pipe, which already runs underneath Drayton Harbor. This process, called sliplining, hit a snag when the force of the test pipe being pushed through the old one broke the old pipe a few yards from Marine Drive, Bullock explained.
Crews had to remove the section of old pipe before they could slipline the new one through, adding $119,674 to the project's price tag. The extra work had to be done at extreme low tide and only after getting separate permissions from regulatory agencies in Whatcom County and the state.
"That's very expensive to do, and that's what the majority of the change order is for," Bullock said.
While Blaine City Council members unanimously approved the change order request at their February 13 meeting, the need for additional money seemed to leave a bad taste in their mouths.
"I was born at the end of the depression, and $120,000 is a lot of money," mayor Harry Robinson said.
Robinson wanted to know why the city has to pay more for something that does not seem like its fault. Robinson also asked who made the decision to run the new pipe through the old one in the first place.
"Why are we always the one who always have to come up with the money?" Robinson asked.
The project's construction engineering firm, Seattle-based Tetra Tech, Inc., determined the best way to install the new pipe was to slipline it through the older one, Bullock explained. He estimated the permitting alone to bore a new hole under Drayton Harbor would take a year and cost roughly $100,000.
Blaine community development director Michael Jones said boring under Drayton Harbor would trigger an environmental review, which would be required to study alternatives to boring. Sliplining the new pipe through the old one would most likely have been identified as the most viable option since it results in less impact on the surrounding environment.
"The permitting process would have led us here anyway," Jones said.
Construction crews ran a football-sized, bullet-shaped metal object called a pig through the unused pipe to make sure it was structurally intact, Bullock explained. After finding no issues, crews than ran a test pipe through to confirm the old pipe was not broken in any places, but the test pipe ended up breaking the old one.
Every indication before the test pipe was pulled through suggested the old pipe was intact, Bullock explained. The pig exited the old pipe relatively clean, suggesting no water or mud had found its way into the pipe.
"When they pulled the pig through, the pig pulled through clean," Bullock said.
Council member Paul Greenough said he understood the need for the change order, but predicted Blaine residents will have a problem with the amount. He suggested council members be ready to explain to their constituents why they approved the change order.
"The last time we had a change order for $100,000, we heard about it," Greenough said.
Bullock said the entire project should be wrapped up in about six weeks.

There is a problem with this recipe in comparison to it's original version (casserole). The original calls for 2 cans of the tomato/green chile mixture. I always use 1 can of tomato/green chile (rotel) and one can stewed tomatoes for another layer of flavor! Then, I add 2-3 Tb. of the Chile seasoning to spice it up. Mine is always gone on the first night :-) -- Made this again and used 3cups cooked rotisserie chix, 1 can cream of mushroom, 1 can fire roasted salsa style tomatoes (Kroger brand), 1 Tbs. Chili seasoing, 1 Tbs. Taco Seasoning, 1 diced onion, 1 diced red pepper.

Transferring non-purchasd content to a new computer

Q: I've separated from my partner and I'm keeping the iPod (an 80GB iPod classic). It was originally registered in her name and I've downloaded iTunes and renamed the device and synced it but it's only synced the music we had purchased; not all the songs that were ripped from CDs. Is there a way I can transfer the songs that were from CD onto my new iTunes? Hoping you can help me.
- Felicity
A: As you've noticed, the "Transfer Purchases" option in iTunes automatically transfers everything that was purchased with any iTunes Store account that you've authorized on your computer. iTunes does not, however, provide any method for transferring back any tracks that were not purchased from the iTunes Store.
Fortunately, a number of third-party utilities have been created to fill this void over the years and many of them make this process quite simple. Check out our guide on Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer for more information on the various options that are available.

Thousands of coastal residents impacted by Hurricane Sandy are still struggling with basic housing needs. And while FEMA has spent — or at least authorized — hundreds of millions of dollars in relief, the government's resources do have limits. Into the gap are stepping private individuals and businesses, and their efforts can make all the difference for individuals and families who are headed into a very tough winter. Here are a few examples.
Emergency heat: Twin Star International, an electric fireplace manufacturer, has donated 31,500 space heaters to charity organizations providing Sandy relief. Five thousand of the company's Duraflame space heaters went to Island Harvest (a Long Island food bank) on November 11, and another 26,400 to the Salvation Army for distribution to affected households in New Jersey and New York.
Twin Star makes electric simulated fireplace heating units under various brand names, including ClassicFlame, Tresanti, Duraflame, and ChimneyFree. As a Florida-based company, CEO Robert Cohen says, Twin Star understands how rough hurricanes can be on people. "We want to do everything we can to help," said Cohen.
Housing: With funding from the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation (a memorial fund for Stephen Siller, a Staten Island firefighter who was killed in the September 11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center), manufactured home builder Factory Expo Homes is making 15 single-wide homes to house Staten Islanders washed out by the Sandy storm surge, reports The Boston Globe ("Va mobile home builder helping NYC storm victims," by Associated Press).
And although it's early yet to be thinking of rebuilding decks or boardwalks, Biddeford, Maine composite lumber maker Integrity Composites has sent a truckload of its DuraLife deck and rail materials to the Breezy Point Cooperative in Breezy Point, Queens, N.Y., where 111 homes burned and many more were damaged by flood on the night of the storm. The company is coordinating with its regional distributor, Coastal Forest Products, and local retailer Breezy Point Lumber to get the material to the community organization.

Most people can't go a day without the Internet. Reasons for using it are nearly limitless: social media, shopping, work, communication, finance, everything. Securing passwords and personal information is an ongoing concern.
Now a new report says it's not you who needs to step up cyber security. Instead, organizations storing information need to step up their response to cyber risks to avoid a global disaster on the scale of the 2008 financial crisis, according to a study by Zurich Insurance Group and international think tank Atlantic Council
"Obviously the Internet has been incredibly resilient for the past few decades, but as with securitization, the added complexity that has made cyberspace relatively risk-free can - and likely will - backfire," the authors write in a report on the study. Information technology has created a web of interconnected operations, for example outsourcing of server management, that if one or a few were to fail the rest could snowball, the report says. That would be similar to the subprime mortgages at the root of the recent financial disaster.
Robert Siciliano, a McAffee online security expert, says the so-called cybergeddon scenario has been proposed before. He sees it as a minor possibility.
"The cloud isn't actually a cloud," he says. "It is a series of servers backed up in physical locations, generally in redundant locations."
Still, the Zurich company says there is a need for cyber-risk management. It should be noted the company offers insurance for these types of scenarios.

Maybe you should quit standing on the fence so you can keep making cash. Republicans can be nice, but still protect the Constitution to the letter. You did meaqn, the only Americans are Republicans? Anyone who voted for Obama and his MAFIA had an IQ of 20, and most of them believe it by now. Obama never said anything in his campaign he didn't lie about! He only said those things to get your vote. (Helinski is applauding in his grave) Lieing is legal according to the courts! I believe the law must be changed, just like the law requiring ALL VOTERS to have PHOTO-IDENTIFICATION. I am tired of the Democrats using my Great, Great, Great Grandmothers name to vote for Obama? How do you think he won his second term?

Mark 8: 11-13
Introductory Prayer:
Lord, I can be so cold to your saving presence as I hurry about living the moment and becoming so sufficient unto myself. There is little wonder that I find it hard to bring myself to prayer to use faith to know you, divine love to live in you, and theological hope to trust in you. I approach you now, wanting only to be a more faithful disciple of your Kingdom.
Lord, grant me to seek you out in this prayer today with a faith that will console your heart and allow me to mature in my commitment to you.
1. Sending Christ
G. K. Chesterton once asserted, "The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried." Jesus truly loves us and would never refuse a humble soul the true goods he needs for fulfillment and salvation. If our wants, like those of the Pharisees, end up leaving God silent and our spiritual life cold, it may be a call for us to purify our hearts of the remaining dregs of our self-centered life. We should carefully avoid the attitudes and words that repel Christ. Christ will not let himself be loved for who he is not, and he will not indulge the desires we have for who we are not. We may want our happiness to be many things, but Christ wants us to accept that his will is the heart of our fulfillment.
2. Prayer Is My Daily Breath
of Air for the Soul:
Jesus speaks with our souls in a language that flows from supernatural attitudes of faith, hope and love. He will remain silent, however, if we drag him down to the small, narrow framework of our reason and calculations wanting to "figure it out for ourselves" before we will act. Jesus does not want to be Superman, who comes into our lives only when things are really bad and all is lost. Rather, Christ intervenes because he wants a life of communion and grace day after day, sharing his life with each and every soul. He wants our living in fidelity and childlike trust to be like breathing the air.
3. The Signs That Bring Christ to Us:
Christ gave us signs of his daily presence in our lives. The first is the sign of
the cross. Only faith will unlock its mystery and bring us to the encounter between our sin and
God's mercy. Sin is at the heart of the worst that can go wrong with our life; the sign of the
Crucified One is its cure. Faith will permit us, as it did the good thief, to see Christ's love at
the center of the universe and the world being drawn towards it as if into a vortex.
Another sign he left us is the Eucharist. It is the most powerful sign because it contains the author of the sign himself. Christ humbles himself to stay with us at all costs. Under the appearance of bread and wine, he reveals what he wants to be for our souls. Under the veil of the sacrament, we learn to encounter Christ personally as pure love. "On the night he was betrayed he showed the depth of his love..." Let these signs be the "love language" by which we talk to Christ in the way he wants to be known, loved, and adored.
Conversation with Christ:
Christ, let my prideful demands melt away before a mature enounter with your divine love. Keep my immaturity from impeding the expansion of your Kingdom; rather, let me humbly accept my need to change the way I relate to your true plan for my life.
Today I will spend time acknowledging and thanking Jesus for the love he has gave me, and serve.

Regular, coordinated contractions of uterine smooth muscle are thought to facilitate the delivery of the fetus(es) at parturition. The development of synchronous activity at term follows the development of many, large gap junctions between uterine smooth muscle cells. The objectives of this thesis were to test the hypothesis that the formation of gap junctions improves direct intercellular communication between the muscle fibers and to determine whether the functional properties of the junctions are regulated. Increased intercellular communication in uterine tissues may facilitate synchronous activity during labor and the regulation of such cell-cell interactions by modulating the function of the gap junctions may participate in the control of uterine contractility during pregnancy and parturition.
A technique was developed to study the diffusion of a small radiolabelled glucose analog, 2-deoxyglucose, through small strips of myometrium. Tissues with many gap junctions from rats in labor demonstrated a significantly greater redistribution of tracer compared to muscle removed from days 17-20 pregnant and days 2-3 post partum animals not in labor which had few junctions. This movement of tracer was shown to be the result of intracellular and direct, cell-to-cell diffusion. Thus, there is evidence for improved intercellular communication in the myometrium during parturition when gap junctions are present.
The extent of intercellular communication in the parturient myometrium was reduced by elevating the intracellular concentrations of Ca⁺⁺ and cyclic AMP in the absence of a change in the extent of gap junctions. More significantly, however, reduced communication was shown in tissues exposed to specific agents which are thought to play a role in the regulation of pregnancy and parturition. Thus, in addition to providing for the increase in gap junctions in the myometrium at term, the hormonal alterations which precede and accompany labor may also regulate the functional properties of these cell-to-cell membrane channels.

On March 23rd, Christopher Mitchell was in Carolina to take part in the Spartan Race. So what? So were thousands of others. Well, Christopher's journey there was a little different than some.
On July 3rd, 2012, he underwent reconstructive ACL surgery on his right knee. It was a mess. He explains, "A few months before, I completely tore my ACL while sparring in tae kwon do. I can't really explain exactly what happened, but it felt like the top half of my right leg and the bottom half went in opposite directions when I planted my leg. Initially, I thought it was a bad sprain and treated the swelling and pain for a couple of weeks."
There wasn't the improvement he expected and on further inspection, an MRI scan determined that the ACL was "not there anymore."
What happened next was like the script from the Six Million Dollar Man. Dr. William Garrett at Duke Sports Medicine in Durham, NC took a piece of Christopher's hamstring and together with some new hardware, basically "built" him a new ACL.
"After my surgery, I spent the next week on my back with my leg in a brace and a cooler circulating ice water around my knee 24/7."
Rehab was hard as he expected it to be. "Physical therapy began on July 11th and continued twice a week until just before Christmas. PT, it was slow and painful. The protocol for my rehab was provided by my doctor, and my physical therapist and I spent a lot of time working to get my knee to bend normally and to put weight on it. Over time, I progressed from my brace and crutches, to just my brace, and finally, no brace. My goal at that time was to walk with a normal gait, and eventually to build some strength in that leg. The loss of strength and muscle tone in my leg was amazing, and took some time to regain."
Towards the end of the rehab, when treadmills and ellipticals were strengthening his leg, he noticed that it wasn't doing anything to remove the extra pounds that he had acquired during the rest and rehab.
"I knew I wanted to get my leg, and body back in shape. It was about that time I came across the Spartan Race website. I was immediately hooked. I read every word on the website, and watched the videos. I felt connected with the Spartan Mission and the Spartan Code. I knew that I wanted to be a Spartan."
With time pressing, Christopher explain how he tunes his body to be ready for the event.
"I've never been one to "just finish" any athletic activity. I want to be fully prepared and ready to give 100% to be as successful as possible. With so far to go to be ready and with so little time, I joined a program at my local gym designed to transform your body in 30 minutes a day, 4 days a week, with very intense, circuit-based workouts. We do burpees, push-ups, planks, pull-ups, jump rope, curls, shoulder presses, box jumps, and various workouts with kettle bells, just to name a few….oh, and did I mention burpees? I felt like this program would get me Spartan tough as fast as possible. And with some extra cardio/running added in, it has."
A miraculously quick turn around, but one that shows how the focus of an individual can yield the rewards. The extra weight has gone and after some recruiting, he is now prepared to attack the course with his sons and a co-worker by his side.
"I am already planning to race in the Mid-Atlantic Spartan Super in August, and the Carolinas Beast in November. And who knows, maybe someday, even the Death Race?"
Yet another example of the triumph of the human spirit.

The last time Boston College came to Atlanta in 2007, Matt Ryan threw for over 400 yards, Georgia Tech lost and dropped six of its next 10 and Chan Gailey lost his job.
Boston College's latest season visit to Georgia Tech intersected with a firing again. It was only the defensive coordinator (Al Groh), not the head coach, who lost his job this time. Groh didn't even make it through October. But if something had gone haywire Saturday, Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson wouldn't have had anybody left to point a finger at. Serious questions that would've seemed implausible after Johnson's first two seasons would've been asked.
Was his program spinning out of control?
Were players, who had followed Johnson's lead for an ACC championship and 20 wins over 2008 and 2009, now not listening to him?
Was the talent really that bad?
The panic is on hold for now. Georgia Tech crushed Boston College 37-17. The final score would've tilted even 10 points more to the left if the Yellow Jackets had somebody who could kick straight. (They botched three short field goal attempts and an extra point. Johnson would gladly swap a major organ for a soccer player who can kick an oblong ball.)
So after three straight losses and the excommunication of Groh, the bleeding has stopped. For now.
It's difficult to know what this game really means. Boston College is bad. Really bad. Like, Duke bad. Like, losing to Army bad. Like, after the Falcons' win at Washington two weeks ago, Ryan walked out of his post-game news conference and said, "We lost to Army!" – that kind of bad.
The Eagles are 1-6 and their only win came over an FCS school, Maine. On the subject of firings: How does Frank Spaziani still have a job? When Tevin Washington completed a 27-yard pass on third-and-26 in the second quarter, setting up a touchdown, it's a wonder Spaziani didn't just walk off the field and have himself committed.
Johnson wasn't about to make any grand proclamations Saturday. He didn't do it a month ago when Tech whacked Virginia 56-20 before the three-game losing streak so he wasn't going to do it now. But at the very least, we can safely conclude that Tech players haven't quit on the season or on Johnson.
"I wasn't concerned that things would spin out of control," Johnson said. "My concern was that we needed to learn how to be intense and focus and how to approach things. I only know one way to go and that's balls to the wall and to be competitive and that's the way I want them to be. At times we are, and when we are we're pretty good. And at times we lose focus and it's like junior high school."
Johnson clearly is making sure he has his players' attention. He even took a shot at those on his team who didn't suit up for the game: Quoting: "I'm going to take care of that. You don't need to be on the sideline if you can't get into the game – it's not a party for them, either."
The defensive game plan was simplified and the Jackets were better. No coincidence. (Johnson during the week: "We don't need 80 calls. We don't need a buzz word on everything.")
Safety Isaiah Johnson said, "It hasn't been as complicated as Al Groh's defense."
The defense held Boston College to a lone field goal in the first eight possessions. The offense only stopped itself (see: crooked kicking foot). It had over 400 yards in the first half and not a punt until the fourth quarter. Vad Lee, the redshirt freshman quarterback, flashed his talent with a 24-yard touchdown run (making four defenders miss) and a 45-yard touchdown pass.
Alas, there were highlights. There was a win.
"It's nice to be back on the right side of the scoreboard again," Johnson said.
It had been a while.

At the end of the first half, Tevin Washington had led the team to two touchdowns and a missed field goal. Vad Lee had led the team to two touchdowns and a missed field goal. At the end of the game, TW had a higher completion rate and more rushing yards … but VL had a slightly higher yards per carry level. I'm glad Lee had plenty of opportunities to get into the game, but I don't think we're anywhere close to having a quarterback controversy. (Of course, I could change my mind as early as next week, depending on each man's performance.)
October 20th, 2012
9:43 pm
FB Yellow Jacket, you were not at the game and if you were you would note that Lee looked so much better than TW that fans were cheering every time he was put in the game and most were upset that TW was in the game. It is not a close fight, Lee is way, way more talented and should get the majority of snaps. Note, stats dont show the three or four bone headed mistakes TW made. he under threw 2 sure TDs caused two more fumbles and generally looked like a freshman lost in the woods.
October 20th, 2012
9:49 pm
Actually, I WAS at the game. Right now I would rate the two quarterbacks as roughly equal in terms of performance, although Lee might be a bit more talented. I DO think Washington runs the option better, although with more reps I'm sure Lee will eventually catch up with him. The thing is, every remaining team on our schedule has a better record than the Jackets (including Duke), so we need to use the QB who does the best job managing the WHOLE offense. For now, I think that's Tevin Washington.

We don't really care. The season ended some time ago. GT can not play 4 quarters of intense football. We can play 2 to 2 1/2 maybe – that it. Never will we be elite until we can concentrate and play 4 quarters of football. We are average.

we should be so lucky w./ l wise,
duke is now 6-2 and bowl eligible. they won a game they usually lose in beating nc with a last minute td today. having duke competitive can only make the acc better top to bottom.
we just need a few marque teams to step up. but we will never have an lsu or bama in the acc. matter of fact no other conference in the country will. when you are competing against bama/lsu who routinely over sign to the tune of 35 players every year.to your 22 it is just not possible. they can cherry pick the talent they want while hording those players they 'discard' from their competition.
what are you going to do when E$PN has their contract with the sec and they give this recruiting tactic their blessing by not reporting on it. i am somewhat surprised that none of our illustrious reporters at the ajc have not written a thing on it. shameful.
far as this game goes all we can do is build on it. we allowed less than half of our ppg over the last 3 games. the players now have a game behind them to adjust to the new coaching etc. coach kelly probably learned a ton about his players and what works and what doesnt.
we got some needed quality snaps for our qb in waiting and he looked very good at times. we definitely have things to build on. i certainly like the direction we are headed as opposed to that direction under groh.
all the teams ahead of us in the coastal lost. miam, nc and vt. duke plays fsu clemson gt and miami in its last 4 games. so while our chances of winning the conference are still dim they are not out of the question …. YET.
if we win out … a big if…. we could play ourselves back into contention. at this point all we can do is play em one at a time and hope for the best.
onward we go. next baby step is byu.
what i would like to see happen is cpj and drad contact randy shannon the former coach of miami for an interview for our d co coordinators spot at the end of the season. if coach kelly continues to make strides with our d by all means include him in this process. coach shannon is certainly intriguing for sure.
- while leaving miami he was cleared of any wrong doing by the ncaa.
- he knows the acc
- he is young. much younger than al groh.
- he is a very good recruiter
- he is a very good d co ordinator in his own right
- he is the current linebacker coach at tcu and a d co ordinator position would be a good spot for him.
- i could see him welcoming a chance to get back into the acc.
just a thought.

Good Heavens Jeff Schultz,
Are you some kind of a Georgie tek fan ? One team in the Top 10 or so and the other a big zero. Every game, you write story after story about this middling team going nowhere.
What's up with that ?
You got a desk job, or what ?
Georgie tek is on NCAA Probation today right now. If UGA were, you'd have a clear comment about it every week.

CPJ is as competitive as anyone on the planet….WHY would he play the player that gives him a lesser chance to win? No doubt, I'm as excited about the future with Vad Lee, but I HAVE to believe that to this point…TW is the best option! Looking forward to seeing how this D measures up to BYU's efforts next week! GO TECH!!!

"If we don't cover=dissappointment"
Georgie tek beat a 1-6 team and we beat a 1-6 team. We've played well in one game all season : the Vandie game. Now we're off to JAX to play in that stadium an hour and a half from their campus at a stadium where the Gator Bowl is played every year, and where Mark Richt has won 3 games out of 11 games. This Top 10 or so match-up features an opportunity to do something about Mark Richt's 3 wins in 17 games over 12 years now against teams who made the Top 10. What I've seen all season long, these Bulldogs have no legitimate right to win.
We'll beat
Georgie tek
though, along with the other pansies on our schedule. We will not play in The SEC Championship Game between Florida and Alabama.
Great Scott.

Sorry, but from being at the game first hand as a student, I can tell you right now that when Vad Lee is in the game, their is a true "electricity" type feel to the game again. You remember the days with Bey-Bey, Nesbitt, and Dwyer tearing up defenses left and right? That was kinda what it felt like to me and everyone around me every time Vad Lee was on the field. Tevin made WAY too many boneheaded mistakes AGAIN. While he may be the "better" QB at this point, that is only due to reps and the fact that he has been in this program for FIVE YEARS!!! Let Vad Lee get major reps, and see where the cards fall. If we don't make a bowl game, at this point it ain't a big deal; bowl games lost any kind of meaning YEARS ago (minus the top tier bowls). I'd rather be ready for a potentially great year next year than to have another sub-par season next year by starting TW . . .
October 21st, 2012
2:02 am
If Tech has a Special Needs Team coach, they should fire him or her. If they do not have one, they should hire back Al Grogh and then fire him again, to set an example. Then, they should go for two on every touchdown and go on every fourth down inside the opponent's red zone, rather than pretend to kick a football through goal posts, until they can find a European exchange student enrolled and on campus that isn't too busy studying to try kicking balls at goals on Saturdays.
October 21st, 2012
2:33 am
I agree that TW still makes some really boneheaded mistakes & VL definitely brings that optimism of being able to make a play by ground or air. VL is the future & with more reps will be solid in running CPJ's system. However I disagree with giving VL all the reps the remainder of the season because for the Seniors on the team who are still fighting…..TW still gives us the best chance of winning.
October 21st, 2012
3:29 am
Never said give VL all the reps. Simply said give him "major" reps. As in more than two true series in a game. There was no way we should have taken him out after he had back to back great scoring plays if you ask me personally. And I'm not against giving Lee a start and seeing what happens. I appreciate what Tevin has done for our program, but let's be honest, some QBs can win, and some can't. For whatever reason, regardless of what stats he puts up, Tevin just isn't the type of leader to will a team to a victory. And it shows in his record as a starter. With Nesbitt, I had confidence every game that we could find a way to win, regardless of who we faced, or what the situation was. Tevin hasn't ever inspired the same type of confidence.

Don't care about UGA and since out took all you had to best Kentucky a Tech win its not automatic.
Vad did look electric at times yesterday. Tevin just seems to get confused. To me a fifth year senior throwing the ball past line of scrimmage is not acceptable. We can be a good team next year if we can find a B back that can take the pounding. Haven't had one since Allen and Dwyer. I do agree TW runs the option better. But I cheered very loud and stayed longer to see Vad's pay late in the game. If we can develop a pass rush we can win our games. Will not have automatic short yardage situations until we have a tough B back. That is the biggest difference. Nesbitt and his b backs could get thosealmost automatically. Vad passing was great to see. Like his long pitches also very crisp. And man can that kid run and juke. That rushing td he had was great t to see.

Hate to pick nits, but when we could have put the dagger in BC's heart CPJ went back into that conservative, ball control offense again. No passes, B back up the middle. Drives me nuts. If not for the roughing the punter call against BC, this game could have been a lot closer than any Tech fan wanted. No, it's not the offense that has lost all the games, but his play calling baffles me sometimes.

Thomas Brown must still be drunk. Go to sleep Thomas. Drunk and stupid is no way to go thru life.

all that said I'm not 100% convinced we don't fold our tent w/o the roughing call in 4th… I was there & that game certainly didn't FEEL like a 20 pt win…

Yep, before that roughing the punter call, I had that deja vu feeling. Just hope the team realizes it has to improve its performance to beat BYU.

From Yahoo Sports (I love that they used the word 'hideous'!): The only sour note for Georgia Tech was a hideous display of kicking. David Scully's first field goal attempt from 22 yards was blocked, then he hooked one wide left from 28 yards. Johnson switched kickers, and Justin Moore connected on a 32-yarder. But Moore missed a 41-yard try, then yanked an extra point outside of the left upright.

Schultzie, TOTALLY disagree with point 3 on other blog……I say more like 50 percent of the time Tevin cannot convert a 3rd or 4th and 1 under this silly offense, not the defense's fault. Its(the O) GREAT tween the 20's, but come crunch time, under Tevin this O folds up like an empty McDonalds bag.

Let's just enjoy this win because it's probably the last one of the season.
