Ichiro didn't get it the first time. After he had been traded by the Mariners earlier in the week, visiting Yankee fans at Safeco Field began their familiar Roll Call.
The chants of each player's name by the Bleacher Creatures at Yankee Stadium are traditionally met with a wave of the glove. Standing in right field in Seattle, however, Suzuki heard "Ichi-ro! Ichi-ro!" And he didn't do anything.
"They had to come around to me twice," Ichiro said sheepishly Friday though interpreter Allen Turner. "Hopefully, I will be ready this time."
And so he was. Seconds after the first pitch by Phil Hughes in the Yankees' 10-3 rout of the Red Sox, Ichrio heard his name. He turned toward the bleachers and doffed his Yankee cap.
And a fine Bronx "konnichiwa" to you, Mr. Suzuki.
"I wanted to bow down, but it is during play," Ichiro said after he went 1-for-4 in his Yankee Stadium debut. "But if a ball was hit to me while I was bowing down, those cheers would be turning to boos."
Yankees manager Joe Girardi said he has only been surprised by one thing about the 38-year-old Ichiro. He didn't know he had such a good sense of humor.
"This guy has been through a lot in his career," Girardi said. "You think about the expectations and the media coverage that has surrounded him. We're pretty confident New York isn't going to be anything too big for him."
Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine, who managed in Japan and called Ichiro one of the five best players in the world before he ever arrived in the majors, didn't disagree.
"World-class athletes perform in world-class fashion," Valentine said. "He's one of those guys."
There are varying levels of delusion, of course, and Valentine sure sounded as if he was pushing the boundary Friday when he said, "I think we can go 10, 15, 20 games over [.500]." At 49-51, how many of you Sox fans are willing to bet a shekel that your team will finish 42-20? Go ahead, raise your hands. Wave your pink hats.
Didn't think so.
At the end of his 17-minute pre-game press conference, Valentine smiled and said, "I didn't think this was ever going to end." That remark came after a half-dozen questions about Ichiro and one wondering if his enthusiasm had waned through his first 100 games as Boston manager.
"I don't think so," Valentine said. "I'm a lucky guy. Hell's bells, it has been exciting. Challenging for sure."
Back in spring training, when hopes were high if not eternal, July 27 was circled on the calendar as Bobby V's homecoming to New York. The Red Sox didn't figure to be 10 1/2 games behind the Yankees going into the game. They didn't figure to be in last place. The debate heading into the trade deadline figured to be whom should be added, not whom should be dumped.
And certainly in March, this July night didn't figure to be Ichiro's Yankee Stadium debut.
Ichiro ripped three line drives before grounding into a fielder's choice. The second liner went past Dustin Pedroia for a single. OK, 1-for-4 isn't anything to do somersaults over, and neither is 4-for-16 since his acquisition form Seattle.
It would be an unfortunate delusion to expect the .372 Ichiro of 2004 to suddenly appear, yet it also would be a colossal miscalculation to write Ichiro off as another washed-up, high-priced name brought in by the star-gathering Yankees.
Ichiro, who hit .261 and had an OBP of only .288 with Seattle this year, should enjoy some kind of resurgence down the stretch. He says it has been a long time since he's had this kind of fun. Who knows what happens when his contract expires at the end of the season? Maybe he slips off to somewhere else in search of 3,000 hits. Maybe he decides to go home to Japan. Yet with Brett Gardner out for the rest of the season, he fills a need for speed on the bases and defensive acumen in the outfield.
Right fielder Nick Swisher, nearly recovered from a mildly strained hip flexor, sounded more than a bit antsy Friday to get back in the lineup. And general manager Brian Cashman is playing a good hunch in deciding that Ichiro, whom Cashman openly says is a better right fielder than Swisher, should play left field. Cashman said he doesn't want to damage a first-place team's harmony. Interestingly enough, the last time Ichiro played left field was the last time he was in the playoffs at Yankee Stadium in 2001. And sure enough, there was Ichiro taking fly balls in left before the game, figuring out angles, etc.

Sat Nag
Product Details
A hilarious gadget that all men will relate to, The Sat Nag is a comedic alternative to a standard Sat Nav.
Just press the button and a patronising female voice (probably similar to that of your wife or girlfriend) will spout a whole host of satirical demands.
With such crackers as:
- "I know you're a man, but it's been 35 minutes now, so can you please admit you're lost and ask someone the way?"
- "In 100 metres turn left. No right, err, no left. Sorry, I never can tell my left from my right".
- "In 50 metres I'm going to put on my most annoying voice and say, 'Is your short cut really faster when we get stuck in traffic like this, well, is it darling?'".
- "In 100 metres I'm going to talk to you in that special voice, which should let you know you've upset me in some way that is bound to be your fault".
The Sat Nag has a holographic screen, highlighting the important roads such as Whiny Lane, Backseat Drive and Earache Avenue.
This will have you howling with laughter, but don't rely on it to get to your final destination. - L.M.
- This mock-up Sat Nav is crammed with totally unhelpful comments from a female 'back seat driver'
- The Sat Nag has a holographic screen highlighting roads such as Earache Avenue
- Suitable for ages 16+ (some strong language)
- Dimensions: 10 x 8 x 2cm

Good Fun
I bought the Sat Nag for a newly qualified driver to get them used to carrying heckling passengers! The comments made by the Sat Nag are very funny. I did encounter a problem with the packaging however. The 'Try Me' button is unprotected when it is packaged and I could hear the Sat Nag voice speaking as the package was delivered. I suspect the battery has pretty much been exhausted during its delivery.
SatNag - Brilliant
Bought this Sat Nag as a birthday gift for a car fan! Saw this product and laughed at the thought of it, as it reminded me of a friend, purchased this, came quickly, when it arrived I couldn't resist but to hear some of the phrases me and a small group of others found it hillarious and I couldn't wait to pass it onto the intended person. When I was able to give it him and he heard some of the phrases himself he and others could not stop laughing, he liked it that much he is going to find a way of putting it in his car! Well done IWOOT great product would deffo recommend for any car fanatic and anyone who enjoys a good laugh!
Soooo funny!
Bought this for a christmas pressie for my brother in law. When I got it, I couldn't help but test it...a few times!! Then play it a few times to my friends. Luckily still had enough battery for Christmas Day, when my brother-in-law played it non-stop for about half an hour, everyone was in stiches. Great gift!!
Sooo Funny
So the box - arrives - excellent service by the way .. and I can't help but test it for myself .. so very funny - Trust me - it's really great for abit if fun !! Every car should have one ! worth every Penny ... It's one of those things - you want to gift everyone ! You wn't be dissapointed !
Wasnt expecting much from this gizmo, however it has surpased my expectations. It was a gift for the father in law, He loves it.!! He keeps it in his side pocket of his car for when the mother in law starts barking orders whilst he is driving. The voice is loud enough and easy to understand and the pre loaded responses are plentyfull and funny. The only downside I could think of is that the build quality is a little poor, however it was cheap so I didnt expect much. All members of the family have been pressing the button to within an inch of its life and the battery (supplied) is still going strong. Well done iwoot.com!

Club Registration links are sent out to every club two months prior to the start of the new seasonal year.
Clubs must be registered in the MSYSA online system before teams are able to register.
If your club is not registered in the system, you will need to contact your club representative.
Once a team's club has registered, all adults rostered on the team must complete the Adult Registration step.
As a part of their club's agreement to affiliate with the Maryland State Youth Soccer Association, all adults must complete this step annually to become eligible to become a listed adult on an MSYSA roster.
As well as registering in the MSYSA system as an Adult Registrant, all adults listed on a roster must have current background checks completed through their club. It is the club's responsibility to input those results into the MSYSA system. Adults who do not have an approved background check will be unable to submit for approval to the registrar.
One last requirement of Adult Officials is that the Head Coach provide proof of a USSF E License (or equivalent) or higher. Teams who are unable to provide proof of an acceptable coaching license will be unable to submit for approval to the registrar. Check out our "Adult Registration" page for more information.
After all adults have completed the adult registration process, the team's Primary Team Contact (PTC – whoever is responsible for making changes to the team's roster in the online system) will need to complete the Team Registration step. *If using a Mac, please note that only Mozilla Firefox is compatible with the Youth leagues system.
Team PTCs will be unable to roster any adult who has not successfully completed their Adult Registration.
The Team Registration step asks for information such as: Team Name, Colors, and Rostered Adults – all of which can be edited. It also asks for the team's Age Group and League – this information effects the team's ID. If they are answered incorrectly it could result in the team having to redo their US Youth member cards. Check out our "Team Registration" page for more information.
When teams are ready to submit for approval and go to their registrar they will need to make sure the system matches what information their paperwork provides (i.e. player names and DOB must be EXACT to what is on birth certificate). Check out "What to take to your Registrar" for more information. Click here for digital photo guidelines.
Quarter 1 –
Fees Due NLT NOV 30
Quarter 2 –
Fees Due on FEB 28
Quarter 3 –
Fees Due on MAY 31
Quarter 4 –
Fees Due on AUG 31
Travel registration fees are due quarterly. Fees for quarters 1-3 are considered late 14 days after the due date. Fees above include additional adds to a roster during a seasonal year. There are no longer any transfer fees or permission to travel fees. Please note that WAGS and NCSL team fees will be paid directly to MSYSA. League fees will be paid separately to the league to which the team belongs. The above fees represent a one-time, yearly team fee. Quarter fees owed are based off of approved teams only. It is the responsibility of the club to monitor your financial statements in the online system. You will not receive billing notification for fees owed. Should you have any questions, please contact the state office at 410-768-5401.
These new fees now include any additional adds to a team roster during a seasonal year. Additionally, all transfer fees and permission to travel fees have been eliminated.
Spring fees are due May 31 with all seasonal fees being paid by Aug 31 of that year. Clubs that are not current on their third quarter Spring fees (May 31) will not be able to roster teams for the following seasonal year until all fees have been received.
Please know that invoices for fees owed are not sent as the Treasurer and Primary Organizational Contact (POC) for every affiliate organization can view the most up to date financial records for their organization by signing into the Youth Leagues database (https://www.youthleaguesusa.com/msysa/13-14/Database.htm) and selecting "Financial Report" from the drop down menu. From here, select "Club" and "Travel" then click submit. Lastly, select your club from the organization box on the left side of the screen and under league select "ALL" then click submit.

Robotic Arm's Big Flaw: Patients Say It's 'too Easy'
Robotic Arm's Big Flaw: Patients Say It's 'too Easy'
Maybe one day the robotic arm can
help people do things the cannot do
on their own; © Jason Greene/UCF
One touch directs a robotic arm to grab objects in a new computer program designed to give people in wheelchairs more independence. Researchers thought the ease of the using the program's automatic mode would be a huge hit. But they were wrong – many participants in a pilot study didn't like it because it was "too easy."
Most participants preferred the manual mode, which requires them to think several steps ahead and either physically type in instructions or verbally direct the arm with a series of precise commands. They favored the manual mode even though they did not perform tasks as well with it.
John Bricout, the associate dean for Research and Community Outreach at the University of Texas at Arlington School of Social Work, said the study demonstrates how people want to be engaged – but not overwhelmed – by technology. The psychology theory of Flow describes this need to have a balance between challenge and capacity in life.
"If we're too challenged, we get angry and frustrated. But if we aren't challenged enough, we get bored," said Bricout, who has conducted extensive research on adapting technology for users with disabilities. "We all experience that. People with disabilities are no different."
The computer program is based on how the human eye sees. A touch screen, computer mouse, joystick or voice command sends the arm into action. Then sensors mounted on the arm see an object, gather information and relay it to the computer, which completes the calculations necessary to move the arm and retrieve the object.
Assistant Professor Aman Behal is seeking grants to translate the study's findings into a smoother "hybrid" mode that is more interactive and challenging for users and features a more accurate robotic arm. Laser, ultrasound and infrared technology coupled with an adaptive interface will help him achieve his goals.
The key is to design technology that can be individualised with ease, Behal said. Some patients will have more mobility than others, and they may prefer a design closer to the manual mode. Though the automatic mode wasn't popular in the pilot study, it may be the best option for patients with more advanced disease and less mobility.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "A blend of barrels taken by Nicolas Tari. A total of 46 barrels produced.

A more Semillon based..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Enticing aromas of toffee, cream, dried apricot and caramel, Full-bodied, very sweet and thick, with honey and caramel flavors. Long and rich, oozing with sweet ripe fruit, this s like liquid candy."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The Sigalas-Rabaud has a well defined nose: grapefruit, nectarine, honey and lime, much more primal than some of the other 2009s. The palate is very well balanced with excellent acidity: apricot, honeysuckle, a touch of orange zest and then vibrant white peach bursting across the finish with lime..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is initially very muted on the nose, but it unfurls seductively with subtle, perfumed aromas of lime leaf, white peach, fresh apricot and touches of white flowers: very pretty and well defined. The palate is beautifully balanced, so pure and succinct with wonderful precision towards the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The minerality and stoniness really comes through on the nose of this Rieussec, more than the 2007. The palate is very well balanced with superb acidity, real tension, steely with great precision with notes of apricot, white peach and honey on the beautifully defined finish. Probably the best..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Gorgeous, featuring a core of creamed peach, persimmon, maple and nectarine notes inlaid with flashes of green tea, dried papaya and mango. Lush and refined, with accents of blood orange and mouthwatering spice echoing on the finish.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Mount Eden's 2010 Chardonnay is stunning. Honeysuckle, tangerine, apricot, and cr?me brulee literally jump from the glass A vivid, exotic wine, the 2010 is constantly changing in the glass. Stylistically, the 2010 is a little richer than Mount Eden fans are used to, but all the elements are in the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Very lively white with wonderful pineapple, honey and lemons on the nose and palate. Great finish with such intensity. Mineral, white pepper, and tropical fruit. Complex aftertaste of spices, pie crust, and lemon meringue. Fab. 66% Sauvignon Blanc, 12% Semillon, and 22% Muscadelle. Production..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Resplendent in its new shiny gold label, Krug is a majestic Champagne. Its velvet texture, dominated by mature flavors, is toasty and rich, dense and complex. In the mouth, its beautiful roasted almond, spice and ripe pears all balance impressively. Could the wine be getting even better? No..
Cellar/Tasting Notes The palate is impressive: tightly coiled, honeyed fruit, very fine acidity, linear at first then fanning out across the finish with notes of dried apricot, nectarine, a touch of almond and a faint hint of spice. With good length and unctuous on the finish, this Guiraud is impossible to ignore.

Important Reminder about Ramp Garage Policies:
Parking guidelines state that any URMC permit hold may park on certain levels of the ramp garage IF they enter between 2:15pm and 5am; they must then exit before 10am. In light of a recent project to hang new garage wayfinding signs, employees should note that, during the times when they are permitted to park in the garage, they should do so in sections labeled with letters V, W, X or Y (formerly level 4), L, M, N or O (formerly level 5) or Z (formerly level 6). Additionally, when employees come to the MC as patients or visitors, they may park in any level of the ramp garage, but must take an entry ticket and pay the standard fee when leaving. To avoid a violation fee, it is imperative that they also phone the Parking Office (275-4524) to report that their registered vehicle will be in the ramp garage during the visit. (In general, it's a good idea to plug this number into your cell phone; it's also helpful on days that you must drive an alternative vehicle into work - for instance, when your car is in the shop).

So much happened before Dorothy dropped in! Long before that girl from Kansas arrives in Munchkinland, two other girls meet in the Land of Oz. One--born with emerald green skin--is smart, fiery, and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious, and very popular. How these two unlikely friends end up as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch makes for the most spellbinding musical in years.

Yes, the Tea Party depends on the ignorance of Americans. Yes, the Tea Party followers are suckers for big business, big corporations, and the greediest of wealthy people. There are parallels to Germany in the 1920s and early 1930s. Economic chaos. Joblessness. Uncertain future. Polarization and extremism in the political arena. You know who and what stepped in to "save" Germany. Hitler and the Nazis, paritally funded by American corporations and wealthy individuals. Henry Ford and du Pont helped Nazism grow.
Today we are in a similarly confused and hateful state in the U.S. Who is your leader? Where do you turn to find sanity in politics? The two major political parties have gone off the extreme end. Grasping for straws, Americans have become very vulnerable to those who promise them the moon, lie, deceive, and blame "the other." America is ripe to be picked. And the most demonic politicos are trying successfully to play it to their advantage. Their future looks brighter because they can continue their lying and deception because they have access to bottomless bags of money from the "rich and famous." And suckers are ready and willing to take the hook.
Regardless of all the name-calling and charges about my political affiliation, I am not a member of any political party or movement. I am very frightened, however, of the direction this nation and this culture is going. Evidence of our greed, selfishness, parochial thinking, bigotry, lack of knowledge, outright ignorance, militarism, and blind goose-stepping cannot be ignored. We are headed in a very dangerous and self-destructive direction. Even well educated people can exhibit ignorance, greed and selfishness [evidence the greedy bankers and Wall Street schemers that caused the current economic debacle]. I refuse to goose-step to this sinister greed and bigotry.
You don't like what a labor union is doing, therefore all labor unions are bad. Ignore all the good they have done through the years, and simply throw them into your hate bin. No knowledge required.
Tea Party leaders love to deny their own lack of aptitude and seem, at times, to have no knowledge of the facts on any given issue. Even their so-called educated leaders and defenders stumble when it comes to something as simple as who is pictured on a bigoted placard at the Tea Party rallies. Hmmm.
Yes, at several Tea Party rallies there were placards with President Barack Obama pictured with a watermelon smile. Bigoted? Hateful? Sickening? Prejudicial? Racist? Nope, say the Tea Party intelligensia. They tell us they asked some of those bigoted posters to be taken down. Nothing was said about the people who were carrying them. Being there with hatred, racism, bigotry, etc. is OK, just don't openly show it. Yep, that about sums it up for the Tea Party. "Let's take back our country!." is their hue and cry. Translation: White folks, arise, and let's straighten out the WHITE House! Good ole American values, when this country taught the Negroes their place in our society. Sickening? You bet it is. And the Tea Party should be called on it. Bigotry is all-too-common in the extreme right-wing. And the Tea Party is all-too-common in the extreme right-wing. And the right-wing holds a power balance in the Republican Party.
The TRUTH about the right-wing goofs trying to get the Republican nomination for President of the United States of America. Imagine the following is actually happening...
Rick Perry has focused much of his attention in the run for the White House on revival meetings, evangelical performances, tent show miracles, promises from God, and his puritanical make-up. Meanwhile there is that waste disposal pay-off looming in Texas that will contaminate drinking water. The Texas backers of Perry got a big contract to dispose of toxic, readioactive waste even though every responsbile and knowledgeable reviewer advised against it. How much was donated to Perry? A lot. And look at Perry's record as Governor of Texas and compare it to his statements in the media. Perry and his Social Security "Ponzi scheme" is straight out of that liars playbook. No lies needed to tell the true story about Perry, he should instantly be disqualified from the office of President. Immediately!
The people who will have the biggest problem with the following quotes are those self-styled tough guys and pro-corporation capitalists. We have been fed a bunch of war b.s. so that we can maximize the profits of the military-industrial greed component in the U.S. Notice the leaders who comment who are from a variety of faiths, and from those we only see quoted when it satisfies our war-desires for profit.
"You will not enter Paradise until you have faith, and you will not complete your faith until you love one another." -Muhammad (ca. 570-632), prophet of Islam
If you watched the Republican presidential hopefuls go through their convincing dud and debacle, then you must surely be worried about the future of the United States. What a dirth of talent and intellect!
However we never seem to learn. Consider who recently held the President or Vice President position: Richard Nixon, Spiro Agnew, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Dan Quayle, etc. When will we ever learn?
JESUS SAVES! ...1st Natl. Bank
The headline above is no more sacrareligious than the religious mumbo jumbo and hocus pocus spewed out by politicians in America. Without any real background knowledge of the Bible and its history and authors, candidates go off into space on evangelical wonder-cruises. If one were to give these candidates the most elementary test about religion and the Scriptures, they would fail miserably. Unfortunately, what most Americans have been taught about all this is patently false as well. I'm not refering to miracles of faith-based beliefs, I'm refering to history, facts, and the latest knowledge about all this. But one can find all kinds of this mumbo jumbo and hocus pocus even in theological seminaries and "Bible schools."
Politics have always played a major role in religion and equally the other way around. Not many people know that the decisions that were made about which books to be included in the Bible were not made by God but by politicos representing different geo-political regions of the Mediterranean [i.e. Council of Carthage]. Each "bishop" or regional leader brought with him ideas about the canon of the Bible that served his area to his advantage. Today we have different "bibles" that include different books because as the "church" grew, factions developed and evolved. Each faction, sect, denomination, etc. had its own reason for inclusions or exclusions or substitutions. It was not always as simple as Roman Catholic vs. Protestants. In fact, most book inclusions were made long before there were Catholics and Protestants.
In any case, I am always amused and then later concerned when politicians in the U.S. exhibit a certain religious "purity" and "spirit" and "rigorous adherence" to his or her flavor of "Christianity." Amusing though that is, it scares me because people buy into the sectarian take on what is "true" religion or "God's way." And like a carnival sideshow, the "barker" gets the take via some scam or diversion ...or lie ...or deception.
...and the word was "hope." But President Obama lost his way. His staff choices were atrocious. He brought in Wall Streeters. He brought in second-level people and ignored the real experts [i.e. immediately should have chosen Paul Volcker]. He thought it was enough to make promising, hopeful speeches. He maintained far,far too many of George W. Bush's mistakes (and they were horrendous ones). Obama did not deliver on promises. His early inexperience was obvious. Now he is trying to straighten it all out. Too late?
However it has to be pointed out that he inherited a real mess. A social, economic, and political mess. George W. Bush gave away the United States to greedy corporate interests. And these interests stood on the sidelines quietly, spewed out nonsensical religious themes, manipultated the federal government to do the bidding of huge financial and corporate interests, and caused the virtual collapse of the United States. Meanwhile the right-wing, greedy, money-grabbers never were charged and never once admitted what they had done to this country. But they knew the religious messages that the right-wing took in hook, line, and sinker. Now saddled with the George W. Bush catastrophe, President Obama has had to learn. But it has cost the United States dearly.

Do Muppets sleep? It's hard to say.
They don't really eat (or breathe, as far as anyone can tell). And only occasionally do they have visible, functioning legs.
As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

Aurora Australis close to Antarctic rescue
As the Australian ice-breaker Aurora Australis steams to the rescue of the stricken ship Akademik Shokalskiy, Science editor Nicky Phillips speaks to the Australis's captain, Murray Doyle.PT3M2S http://www.watoday.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-301k9 620 349 December 29, 2013

After five days of sailing, the Aurora Australis has reached Watt Bay, near the Mertz Glacier, and is just over 20 nautical miles from the stranded Russian tourist ship Akademik Shokalskiy.
The Australian-flagged Aurora remained in position overnight and will assess the weather conditions on Monday morning before it begins the slow and tedious process of ploughing through the heavy pack ice in a bid to free the stricken vessel.

The Aurora travelled more than 1100 nautical miles to Commonwealth Bay, near the Mertz Glacier, where the Russian vessel has been trapped since Christmas Day.
The Aurora had cut short its mission to resupply the Australian Antarctic station, Casey, for the year ahead.
The Russian ship is retracing Sir Douglas Mawson's Antarctic expedition.

The Aurora's captain, Murray Doyle, said the first option would be to try to break the Shokalskiy out of the ice pack.
"It'd make things a lot easier for everybody if that was the case," he said.
To smash a path through the dense ice, where some slabs are reported to be more than two metres thick, the 24-year-old ice-breaker will use its bow to mount the ice, crushing and cracking the floe with its weight before reversing and repeating the process.
While the Aurora was not designed to cut through ice more than two metres thick, the captain was hopeful the ship could navigate a path around the ice floes, he said.
"It's a big challenge. But we've got a good crew."
If the ice-breaker's attempts to release the Russian vessel fail, the passengers will probably be evacuated to a nearby ship, possibly the Aurora.
"I presume they [the Rescue Co-ordination Centre in Canberra] will go for the option of removing the tourists off the Shokalskiy and take them to somewhere where they can be taken home," Captain Doyle said.
One of the major goals of the rescue was to prevent the Aurora from getting stuck as well.
"And we're also trying to get everybody off [the stranded vessel] without any injuries or accidents. We want to get everybody home safe," Captain Doyle said.
The Aurora will try to reach the Shokalskiy three days after the Chinese ice-breaker Xue Long spent 11 hours ramming the ice but moving only two nautical miles.
Passengers and crew on board the Aurora spent Sunday preparing the ship in the event passengers from the Shokalskiy needed to be evacuated on to the ice-breaker.
On Saturday evening, the Aurora's voyage leader Leanne Millhouse told expeditioners, mainly staff involved in the resupply of the Casey station, to prepare for up to 56 new passengers.
Expeditioners were also asked to help in the galley if extra meals were required.
Grant Hose, a scientist from Macquarie University, spent the morning cleaning his cabin in anticipation of the new arrivals.
"We've been advised that we might have bunk together, three or four to a room, to accommodate the Akademik Shokalskiy passengers," Dr Hose, who has been working on Macquarie Island since October, said.
Nicky Phillips and Colin Cosier are travelling on board the Aurora Australis as part of the Australian Antarctic Division's media program.

With fall camp opening, Les Miles had a chat with the media yesterday and opened up about a couple of topics. The coach summed up the unique situation his team is in as he enters his eighth season on the Bayou:
"The great news is that this is a team that has tremendously achieved and is very, very talented, but they didn't get it done (last year). It's a team that had the best record in college football and, yet, they didn't get it done. It's an interesting position to be in…
(High preseason rankings are) a compliment to the body of work that's gone on here. Nobody in this room feels like there's anything guaranteed anybody. It's only earned last.
There's a necessity to learn from your past experiences. The good news is it was last year."
While most publications have LSU ranked in the top three of their national polls, the coach made it clear there's still plenty of opportunity for freshmen to step in and play. "If this freshman class isn't ambitious about where they play, how miserable," he said. "If they come in just thinking they're redshirting, what a miserable way that would be to approach a great year because we need everybody. This freshman class has to step into their role and play aggressively."
If they do — and if the team avoids a hangover from last season's BCS title game loss — it's hard to imagine LSU not finishing near the top of the BCS rankings come December.

Logan county is located in western Kansas just south of Interstate 70 and one county east of the Colorado line. The valley of the Smoky Hill River cuts a beautiful, broad swath through the county.
Until 1963 Russell Springs was the county seat for Logan County. There was much feuding over which town should serve as county seat. Oakley won the honor in 1963. In 1965 the old county courthouse in Russell Springs became the Butterfield Trail Historical Museum.
Russell Springs, founded in 1865, was the Eaton stop on the Butterfield Overland Dispatch stage line. The line ran through rough Indian country to connect the gold mines in Denver, Colorado, with Fort Riley, Kansas. It ran until the Kansas Pacific Railroad was built. Travelers on the Butterfield Trail always made the natural springs in the area a watering place, calling them "Russell's springs."
The Kansas State Historical Society has more historical data for Logan County online including a rich bibliography and lists of cemeteries, post offices, and newspapers.

Watch a video on how to use a fire extinguisher
Remember the PASS-word
In the midst of a fire emergency is not the time to learn how to use your fire extinguisher. The instructions for use are displayed on the extinguisher. Take time to read over these instructions several times a year to remain familiar with them. While trying to extinguish a fire with your fire extinguisher, always keep your back to an unobstructed exit, stand six to eight feet away from the fire, and remember the PASS-word........PULL, AIM, SQUEEZE, and SWEEP.
PULL the pin. This unlocks the operating lever and allows you to discharge the extinguisher. Some extinguishers may have other lever-release mechanisms. Check your extinguisher and become familiar with its release mechanism.
AIM low. Point the extinguisher nozzle (or hose) at the base of the fire.
SQUEEZE. Squeeze the lever above the handle. This discharges the extinguishing agent. Releasing the lever will stop the discharge. (Some extinguishers have a button instead of a lever.)
SWEEP. Sweep from side to side, moving carefully toward the fire. Keep the extinguisher aimed at the base of the fire and sweep back and forth until the flames appear to be out. Fire can re-ignite, so always be sure the fire department inspects the fire site, even if you think the fire is out.
Remember, a small fire can quickly become a large one. The first step in fighting a fire of any size is to call 9-1-1. If the fire is bigger than you are don't try to put it out, go outside immediately.

Snapshot Issue 25 August 2006
When a living entity is challenged by another, subtle mechanisms are triggered off, resulting in molecular crosstalk which should help to ward off the offender. It is a question of recognizing the self from the non-self. If a virus is not recognized as a transgressor, an organism will do nothing to hinder it and infection will flourish. Likewise, if a dog gnashing its teeth does not cause your heart to beat and your legs to run, you may well be in deep trouble.
Plants cannot decamp but they do have their strategies. Giving off scents is one. Directly reacting to damage brought about by a herbivore is another. But these are classic self and non-self reactions. Recently, a far more cunning approach was unveiled. Indeed, researchers have discovered that some plants have devised a way to get tiny protein fragments to be part of insects oral secretions. When such secretions are perceived by the same species of plants, defense mechanisms are prompted by the protein fragments, and insect larval growth is impeded. This is a case of the self inducing a self defense mechanism something which is rarely beneficial to an organism.
How do plants do this? So far, the observation has been made in cowpea and maize, and seems to be species-specific. The tiny protein fragment termed inceptin is part of the gamma subunit of the large chloroplastic ATP synthase. When insect larvae feed on the plants, they ingest the ATP synthases along with hordes of other things. The synthases are then broken down by the insects proteases, thereby releasing inceptin, which subsequently becomes part of the insects secretions. When inceptin is secreted as the larvae feed on another plant, it elicits the production of phytohormones such as ethylene, salicylic acid or jasmonic acid, which are an integral part of complex pathways that ultimately lead to ways of fighting off herbivores.
Nature will never cease to surprise us. The notion of self and non-self seemed a sensible dogma like the one gene, one protein dogma did and a rational way to explain the promotion of defense mechanisms. In a way it still stands though, for without the larvae and their digestion, inceptin would not exist in the first place.

Inhuman, cruel and a disgrace to Singapore sport.
This is what netizens are calling national bowler Remy Ong, 33, after he hit a stray dog with his Porsche sports car along Changi Coast Road, then left the scene, leaving behind his car's licence plate.
The dog died from the injuries.
News of the incident went viral online after cyclist Danny Ng posted a picture of the dog and Ong's licence plate, along with an account of what happened.
Ong said he didn't immediately realise he had hit the dog.

The people. My friends here are like my family. I also like the small class sizes. There's a lot of interaction with your professors and they all address you by name.
Essential Microbiology. I like the class set-up with weekly quizzes that help you keep up with the material.
Professor Donna Bozzone knows how to channel different parts of the class. She does a good job of keeping everyone focused and throwing jokes in there, too, to make it fun. It's all about bacteria and the environment - how it grows, what it does, how you can prevent it. We have a combined lab, too, so we get to design our own group projects.
Sloane Hall is an interesting environment. You feel like you're in a restaurant off campus. It's a good change from Alliot.
Uncommon Grounds. I really like local coffee places and it's a great place to study when you need to get off campus and not have distractions.
Service isn't always the way you expect it to be. It doesn't have to be hands-on; it can be just talking to people. I worked at a home for the elderly and we just sat and talked with them. It was one of the most meaningful experiences I've had.
I started "Family Friends" with MOVE where we go to the shelter in Burlington and play with the kids there. I am also a tour guide, which is a great chance to share how much I love the school.
I did a mini study abroad through the philosophy department. For two weeks, we went to Guyana and worked at orphanages, homes for the elderly and a leprosy hospital. We got to see people who were marginalized from society and how they're cared for.
I'm shadowing a physician assistant at Fletcher Allen, where I go in and see all the patients. It's clarified for me that's the field I want to go into.
St. Mike's has taught me that being happy is being able to express yourself.
