Science is back! Bwog's resident test tube aficionado Zach Kagan reports.
After an exhaustive series of tests at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, Scientists have ruled out all possible masses for the elusive Higgs Boson between 145 and 466 GeV with 95% certainty. Professor Peter Woit vented his frustration, saying "a malicious deity has carefully chosen the Higgs mass to make it as hard as possible for physicists to study it." Come on, Higgs Boson, be a team player.
Speaking of illusive matter, some physicists are beginning to doubt dark matter's existence. Columbia's XENON100 lab in Gran Sasso, Italy has found no evidence of the particles that theoretically make up dark matter. However, the dark matter detector next door, Gran Sasso National Laboratory's CRESST-II, has published data suggesting that WIMPS are indeed out there. XENON100 physicists doubt CRESST-II's data, so the fate of dark matter is unsure, baring some sort of decisive cage match between the labs.
World War II may have seen the greatest generation, but ours certainly knows how to party harder, or so says a new Columbia study. Those born in the past half of the century are more likely go on binges and develop drinking problems. While the jury is still out over the cause of the spike in drinking, but the past year's Billboard top 40 hits certainly aren't helping.
The freighting plausible and star-studded epidemic thriller "Contagion" is winning praise with critics and audiences alike partially due to efforts of Columbia epidemiologist W. Ian. Lipkin. Professor Lipkin designed the (thankfully fictional) virus that wrecks havoc on Minneapolis and trained the actors how to effectively act its symptoms. His help was so appreciated that a writers created a character based off of him.

Who's the new kid in town? Uh oh, it's swine flu. The newest fad in respiratory diseases, is, as you've heard from just about everywhere, sweeping its way through the U.S and will probably creep up behind your comfy chair in Butler 209 any second now.
Although all cases of the flu in the U.S have been mild, Health Services is staying alert about a Columbia outbreak. Scott Wright, VP of Student Services, discussed the need to be aware of flu's ability to spread during his cameo at last night's CCSC meeting. He passed around flyers from the NYC Department of Health that instructs New Yorkers on avoiding getting down with the sickness: "clean things that are touched often," "avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth," and, you know, wash your hands.
Wright echoed the general sentiment that we are at a moment where the situation is "changing hour-by-hour", but that it has the "potential to be very serious." Halp! He assured CCSC that Columbia has access to
flu vaccines anti-viral drugs such as Tamiflu but is "not positive" that they will be effective against this strain of the flu. Although, according to Wright, "not enough is known yet to take further action", Columbia is considered one of the city's main hubs in case of an emergency and Columbia administrators will know updates on the situation "before anyone else in the area."
We're all gonna die!

Along with many high hopes freshmen carry to their first weeks of college, one of the most promising seems to be the possibility of a new love life. Nonsense, you say—I was canoodling quite successfully in 5th grade! This is silly. Freshmen don't know how to do anything, much less mate. Fortunately, one of our resident Bwog sexperts has collected wisdom from many corners (ie: members of the Blue and White e-mail alias) to breathe hope into this jungle of hormonal dissonance.
Slow down. In this infamously nit-picky city where narcissism thrives, many prefer being single over being caught "settling." One respondent cautions: "You will hate / ignore your orientation friends within a month. Don't lie – you're just using them as seat-fillers at dinner so that you don't have to confront that nagging feeling of isolation. Therefore, it is in your best interest not to tell them any big secrets or to conceive any of their children."
Dump the sweetheart. If we can be sure of anything, it's that retaining a long-distance flame is always more work than it's worth. Lack of times and physical intimacy inhibit including someone far away into your immediate life. Writes one contributor: "It doesn't matter that your significant other at home is markedly more attractive than anyone you've yet seen at Columbia. Dump them." (more…)

All Rise...
Judge David Johnson wonders if there is a lot of urine-drinking on college campuses these days.
The Charge
She's got it all…and he's not getting any.
Opening Statement
When I see these college comedies prefaced by "National Lampoon's," I tend to shudder. Recently, the vast majority of flicks of this ilk have proven to be crude-for-crude's-sake, unfunny trash. Imagine, then, my surprise when this little film bucked the trend and offered a quality, amusing, even semi-touching viewing experience. National Lampoon…is that you??
Facts of the Case
One day, Adam (Cameron Douglas) meets Eve (Emmanuelle Chriqui) and they connect. Both college students, Adam bides his time perfecting his rock star look and musical techniques while trying to survive his day-to-day living in a toxic waste dump of a frat house without getting an exotic kind of crotch fungus. Meanwhile, Eve, an eye-popping, hard-working, good-grade-getting beauty is known around campus for her infamous abstinence; she is a virgin and staunchly defends her choice to remain a virgin, saving herself for someone special.
Is Adam that special man? He definitely hopes he is. But after nine months of dating, Eve is adamant about not sleeping with him, or even getting overly physical in any other way. The furthest the two go is making out on a bed in their underwear, but that's it. Adam is increasingly frustrated, but recognizes that he's got an awesome girl in Eve, so is willing to hold out and be faithful.
The pressure mounts when his loser frat boy friends consistently berate him for staying with such a girl. Eve doesn't have it any easier, when her sorority sisters consistently mock her choice. As Adam and Eve's relationship grows, something will give, and in the end, it might be Adam's self-control—which may spell doom for his relationship.
The Evidence
There are times in life when surprises come out of nowhere and just surprise the heck of you. (How's that for some adroit writing?) Watching Adam and Eve is one of those times.
I went into this thing fearing a typical, unfunny mish-mash of collegiate-themed film clichés, tied together with that National Lampoon feel (read: a random, anonymous bare breast of two, beer, etc.) Overall, I have not been in impressed with recent offerings from National Lampoon, finding them dull, amateurish, and a far cry from the ventures of their past.
Basically, what I'm getting at is that my expectations were lower than crap.
Well, color me stunned, because, kids, Adam and Eve is a fine little movie. Not only is it funnier than pretty much all the recent National Lampoon "comedies" I've subjected myself to (Holiday Reunion, Dorm Daze), but it is leaps and bound more dramatic. Yeah, dramatic.
The thrust of the film is straightforward: horny dude finds the greatest girl in the world, but she's not doing the physical stuff, so he needs to evaluate how important sex is versus the girl of his dreams. This sounds like a set-up for a potential gaggle of sophomoric jokes, and the film pulls them off, but it goes further, and grounds the humor in a convincing, substantial treatment of the characters. Adam and Eve aren't cutouts created to be put in a lineup of gross-out gags. They're fully developed, and the filmmakers spend time crafting them so their actions make sense in the context of who they are and the situations they are put in.
Adam, for example, makes it very clear that he is used to the wanton sex life of a college senior. He is frustrated from beginning to end (and if you saw Eve, you would be too) and can't understand why Eve isn't like everyone else. He eventually does, yes, but it's not through some tacked-on, B.S. Full House-like speech from his dad or lesbian best friend. He realizes his love for Eve organically, and comes to understand her choice.
I have got to give kudos to writer Justin Kanew and director Jeff Kanew (father and son team, the latter of Revenge of the Nerds fame): they never sell out their characters or their choices. Eve, for example, is stern in the maintenance of her virginity, despite the pressure from her friends and boyfriend. Eve questions her decision in the face of raging hormones and the like, but is resilient. Neither do the Kanews short-sell the idea of preserving one's virginity. Yes, the idea is mocked within the film, but it's done by a) Adam's friends, who are complete jackasses and b) Eve's housemates, who come across as petty whores.
Now, don't go running out to show this flick to your local church youth group. It's still a raunchy, crude, piece of gross-out fare. Adam's friends come out with some of the most disgusting things, Eve's friends talk explicitly of their various sexual encounters, masturbation and STD jokes abound, there's some testicle sniffing, a gratuitous pubic hair scene, the requisite breasts, and even some urine-drinking. But what separates Adam and Eve from the parade of American Pie clones is the heart at its core. This is probably the best film of its genre (the gross-out/college/romantic comedy genre) that I've seen. Nice job Kanews.
A solid disc from top to bottom, Adam and Eve receives a strong 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer and an effective-enough 5.1 mix. For extras: an engaging commentary from the Kanews, some deleted scenes, and a gag reel.
Closing Statement
I mentioned American Pie. Those frickin' movies annoyed the heck out of me. They were marketed as some kind of nostalgic, feel-good excursion into the land of growing up and relationship forging, but were always just vehicles to deliver over-the-top gags. This film, on the other hand, is the real deal. Gross? Sure. Funny? Yeah. But it's got substance going on, too.
The Verdict
The accused is not kicked out of the garden.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Adam And Eve a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

The Cancer Institute of New Jersey, New Brunswick, has been named the recipient of the 2013 Oncology Nursing Societys Employer Recognition Award in the medium-size employer category.
The honor to be formally presented at the ONS 38th Annual Congress April 25-28 in Washington, D.C. acknowledges institutions that support the vision, mission and values of the nursing organization.
Our team is dedicated to excellence and is able to provide that distinct level of service in part thanks to the support and commitment of The Cancer Institute of New Jersey, Director of Oncology Nursing Services Janet Gordils-Perez, RN, MA, APN-BC, AOCNP, said in a news release. Our centers leadership recognizes the value and expertise of the resources and training opportunities offered through ONS, and because of this support, our nurses continue to excel in delivering quality programs and care, which ultimately translate into improved outcomes both for our patients and the community at large.
The Cancer Institute of New Jersey is affiliated with The University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.
As a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, The Cancer Institute of New Jersey is dedicated to research, treatment, prevention and education, Robert S. DiPaola, MD, director of CINJ and associate dean for oncology programs at UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, said in a news release.
Core tenets upheld by the ONS include leading the transformation of cancer care, promoting excellence in oncology nursing and fostering integrity, stewardship, advocacy, excellence and inclusiveness.
From being on the front lines of patient care to helping drive clinical discoveries and beyond, our oncology nurses play a critical role in upholding each one of those pillars every day, and we are proud to support them, DiPaola said in the release.
The principles put forth by the Oncology Nursing Society represent the very heart of the oncology nursing profession. We are pleased that our nurses incorporate these values into their work, and we are equally pleased to be recognized by an organization that places great emphasis on oncology nursing excellence.
The three categories of Employer Recognition Awards (small, medium and large) were developed to recognize employers that show exemplary support for their registered oncology nurses who reinforce the ONS principles.
Along with receiving the Employer Recognition Award, a main highlight of the annual meeting is the research that will be presented during the four-day event. Several nurses from The Cancer Institute of New Jersey will present posters and abstracts that highlight their investigation into oral treatment adherence and fatigue and sleep disturbances as they relate to care and quality of life for cancer patients.

STYLE-549: Dealing with artists with multiple performance but no known legal name
Nicolás Tamargo de Eguren <reosarevok@...>
We recently got a ticket asking what to do when an artist has multiple performance names, but we don't know, and can't find, the actual legal name (so we can't just link them together via the legal name as usually): http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/STYLE-549
I've personally usually dealt with this with annotations, but admittedly that really restricts the connection - for example, the other artist names don't appear on their pages as they do when using proper relationshios (like in http://musicbrainz.org/artist/f90e8b26-9e52-4669-a5c9-e28529c47894).
I'd like to hear what people's ideas on this kind of thing are. Should we kinda misuse the relationship, and link all other performance names to the most well-known one as the "legal name"? Should we create a placeholder legal name artist somehow? (if so, what should be its name? [unknown] is taken after all). Do you have any better ideas on how to deal with the whole issue?
Looking forward to some feedback!

For Work-Life Balance, Try a Carry-On Evening Bag
Road Warrior provides travel tips from those who know best: busy executives and other globetrotters. See previous columns.
Emma Dale is a Hong Kong-based founder of Prospect Resourcing, a London-based recruitment company.
The England native talks with the Journal about making it home for bedtime, travel bags that double as evening clutches, and where to go for a romantic weekend without the kids.
How often do you travel?
At a minimum once a month. And I have two children and a husband, so we try to make the most of it by going on small trips in Asia.
Where do you go most often?
In Asia, mainly to Singapore. And I try to get to London twice a year to meet with clients and see the team.
Favorite airport?
Probably Singapore because I know it so well. It's so quick and easy and is very kid-friendly.
Favorite airline?
I don't really have one. When I'm traveling on business, it's all about ease. I can't bear to be wasting time, so my focus is on going straight to the lounge, getting Wi-Fi and decent coffee—and good red wine for the ride home.
How do you balance travel with your family life?
I try my hardest not to miss too much time with them. When I schedule flights, I work it so I can put them on the bus, head to the airport, and try to get home in time to pick them up when I come home three days later. And thank goodness for Skype.
Favorite travel tools?
I mainly use TripAdvisor, and I absolutely have to have the taxi-booking app in Singapore.
Any other travel tips?
Check your passport expiration date, and make sure you have enough pages for visas. I've been caught in this before.
Packing essentials?
Noise-reducing headphones and my iPod. And Stow's Isabella cross-body bag. It can hold my iPhone, passport, boarding pass, iPod and pen, and it has a strap that transforms it to a clutch bag in the evening.
Favored luggage?
I always have a Tumi travel-on and a handbag for my laptop, which also holds my Stow.
Favorite airport-to-city trip?
I liked Hanoi. I was fascinated by what I could see. It's one of my memorable cities. It probably wasn't the easiest or the quickest, but I liked seeing the shared energy.
Best trip?
South Africa. I've only been twice, but I loved every minute of it. I went with my husband when my first son was a year old, and we instantly fell in love with the food, the people and the wine. And it was so easy to travel there with a baby.
Worst travel experience?
My husband once booked my children and myself on a trip to the Philippines, but we were refused at the airport because my son's passport had less than six months left on it. We tried to get to Singapore, but we were still refused entry so we had to come back home.
When I go to Beijing, I'm often delayed. I was once stuck on a plane on the runway for about six hours.
Best taxis?
I love getting into a black cab in London. They always know where they are going.
Favorite hotel?
It depends on whether I'm traveling on business or with the family. For business, I just want to be in walking distance from the office. I'm not that fussy. I just want a decent bed or, ideally, a gym.
If I'm with my husband, I want a good spa and restaurant. One of our favorites is Abaca [Boutique Resort] in Cebu [Island] in the Philippines. It's boutique and you're unlikely to find children there.
With the kids, Shangri-La hits it every time, any Shangri-La in Asia.
Tips for handling jet lag?
I try my hardest to always pack my trainers when I travel. If I have jet lag, I'll run to try to de-stress. Even if my schedule is manic, I can run because I'm an early riser. It's also a good way of exploring a city.

There are many ways to layout your E10 disks... is anyone using JBOD for Exchange 2010 within a DAG?
Is the failure of a node completely transparent to the end user?
Are transactions ACID compliant? .. in other words will an in-flight transaction be repeated/resumed on the failover node?
I'm aware RAID could be used within a JBOD, but some people here may not know that Microsoft has a proposed raidless-JBOD architecture with Exchange 2010 for the mailbox role. In the event an array or node fails, the CAS server will failover to a different server hosting a replica of the JBOD data.
I'm only interested in answers that take into account JBOD with the new DAG concept, does it work in the real world, and is anyone doing it.

City extends PAL lease
Waterbury will continue use of former St. Lucy School
As former city police superintendent, O'Leary revived PAL into an organization that now boasts mentoring, tutoring and sports programs for more than 3,000 children.
The hard-charging and popularly supported nonprofit managed to buy and renovate the former St. Lucy Parochial School building, and its recreation center, in the North End.
For nearly five years, the school department has leased the PAL classroom building for its State Street Program — serving children with special social, emotional and behavioral challenges. The lease has been worth $776,702 to PAL over the years.
Former Mayor Michael J. Jarjura and Independent Party founder Lawrence V. De Pillo approached the school board Thursday to argue against an extension of the lease to the school system.
De Pillo suggested the schools could place State Street students in Barnard School in the Brooklyn neighborhood. That building, more than a century old, closed in 2011 with the opening of the newly remodeled and expanded Duggan Elementary School nearby.
"Again, we are asking taxpayers to dig into their pockets while we have a fully functional school," De Pillo said.
The State Street program moved out of the Enlightenment School building downtown in 2009 as the city pursued a $13.5 million, two-phase renovation. The plan, Jarjura said, had been to finish renovation and then move State Street back in with the Enlightenment Program.
With more than $300 million in recent school construction, Waterbury surely has room for a few dozen State Street students, Jarjura said.
He suggested using buildings that haven't hit their maximum capacity, such as the recently opened Reed Elementary School or the soon-to-be-opened Carrington Elementary School.
"Two-hundred thousand might not seem like a lot of money to you," Jarjura told the school board. "But as we have heard, some people are being squeezed by taxes and will be even more squeezed when revaluation goes through."
Jarjura noted PAL is a quality program, but also made a glancing remark to it being "highly subsidized" by taxpayers.
O'Leary, during his turn at the microphone, angrily blasted critics of the lease. He touted the benefits of the fully renovated PAL building and cast doubt on the environmental conditions at the aged Barnard building. O'Leary expressed support for budding plans to attempt a Barnard renovation, but said it was not ready to serve State Street students. Nor, O'Leary said, is there room in other city buildings suitable for the State Street students.
"We do not have a place for these children to go," O'Leary said. Anybody who bothered to visit Gilmartin, Reed or Carrington schools would know that, O'Leary said. "These schools were not built for another 80 to 100 special needs kids. Period."
O'Leary took exception to the characterization of PAL being highly subsidized. He noted the city provides four officers. O'Leary also stressed PAL's work mentoring and keeping children out of trouble.
"What do you think it costs to incarcerate an 18-year-old?" O'Leary asked. "Sixty-five thousand, $70,000 a year. If we make a difference in the lives of three kids a year, that's the value of that lease. We are making a difference in thousands of lives every year."
The board approved the lease in a 7-1 vote.
Republican Jason Van Stone said he thought the city could save money by using Barnard, which had held students only two years earlier. He stressed his objection had nothing to do with the prospective landlord.
"I was somewhat sad the mayor had to defend PAL," Van Stone said. "PAL doesn't need any defending."

NOTE: Lawrence "Larry" De Pillo and well Lisa Lessard also where at the Board of Education meeting and spoke!

HE WAS MISSING IN ACTION FOR THE FINALITY OF THE BUDGET of 2013-2014 UNTIL 8:47 p.m.
The Board Of Alderman meeting was on the FINALITY OF THE 2013-2014 BUDGET, meeting started at 8:00 p.m.
Mayor Neil O'Leary showed up at the BOA at 8:47 p.m. and the meeting concluded at 9:04 p.m. As he the Mayor, was leaving , the BOA, he was talking about "where they where going after wards too socialize," I think the establishment was Shamrocks.
BOE and fighting for PAL????????? Or be at BOA and fighting for each and every tax payer for this years budget of 2013-2014???????? YOU THE TAX PAYERS MAKE THE CHOICE OF WHERE THE PRIORITY LANDED WITH THIS MAYOR????????????? TRUTH! "

With the Mayor that involved to PAL, he should step away from the rental process. This is a no brainer. This is a big lease and should go out to bid. There are unused Catholic owned schools ready to move into. Maybe they would charge less or maybe the city could BUY them and save in the long run, or maybe the PAL deal is a good deal for the city. The fact the the Mayor is renting to himself with our money smells funny. "

I was going to be more verbose than this, but let me just say...
Remember to
1.) hydrate before and to take liquids with you.
2) take gels with you if you figure to be out on a long run.
3) stretch
4) dress for the weather.
5) OBSERVER TEMPERATURE WINDOW FROM YOUR PHYSICIAN AS FAR AS THE WHEN TO RUN. For me 33 deg F to 90 deg F. I prefer 33-70.
6) If training for a race, train in temperatures to occur on race day (unless training in hotter weather will make it a breeze on race day.)
My mistake today..........................................no gels (#2).

Programming with POSIX Threads / Edition 1by David R. Butenhof
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 05/16/1997
Publisher: Addison-Wesley
With this practical book, you will attain a solid understanding of threads and will discover how to put this powerful mode of programming to work in real-world applications.
The primary advantage of threaded programming is that it enables your applications to accomplish more than one task at the same time by using the number-crunching power of multiprocessor
With this practical book, you will attain a solid understanding of threads and will discover how to put this powerful mode of programming to work in real-world applications.
The primary advantage of threaded programming is that it enables your applications to accomplish more than one task at the same time by using the number-crunching power of multiprocessor parallelism and by automatically exploiting I/O concurrency in your code, even on a single processor machine. The result: applications that are faster, more responsive to users, and often easier to maintain. Threaded programming is particularly well suited to network programming where it helps alleviate the bottleneck of slow network I/O.
This book offers an in-depth description of the IEEE operating system interface standard, POSIXAE (Portable Operating System Interface) threads, commonly called Pthreads. Written for experienced C programmers, but assuming no previous knowledge of threads, the book explains basic concepts such as asynchronous programming, the lifecycle of a thread, and synchronization. You then move to more advanced topics such as attributes objects, thread-specific data, and realtime scheduling. An entire chapter is devoted to "real code," with a look at barriers, read/write locks, the work queue manager, and how to utilize existing libraries. In addition, the book tackles one of the thorniest problems faced by thread programmers-debugging-with valuable suggestions on how to avoid code errors and performance problems from the outset.
Numerous annotated examples are used to illustrate real-world concepts. A Pthreads mini-reference and a look at future standardization are also included.

I found this book to be a very instructive & somewhat comprehensive introduction to using POSIX Threads in UNIX Programming. It has a great introduction, very clear explanation of their structure and use, comprehensive examples of their applications in real computer science programming and computational problems. What sets this book apart is that it is not overly technical and brief in its explanation. Illustrations and metaphors supplement the concept of how threads work together, and the text is very clear to follow along. I would recommend this book to anyone - student or programmer, looking for a solid introduction to threads. This is not a book for people unexperienced in intermediate level programming, or those who do not know the C programming language.

Hey. I have been running MS for a month now and I have this quirk that I want to figure out. In WordPress on the first site - new post - I can move and choose the screen options I want, then go about my work. I have moved around multiple options and also have widgets that I hide so nobody messes with those settings.
Only problem is when I go into another multisite and create a post, I go back to the first website - all the screen options have reset.
Is there any way to get these options to stick? I know if I don't go to another site and write one post after another, the site options stay intact. Its when I create a post in another child site then come back the page resets.
Thanks in advance

Not so very long ago I was talking with someone about the ad that I ran in the Spencer Magnet and they wanted to know if I was satisfied with the results?
The ad was designed to help the Back Pack Buddies Program here in Spencer County. Unfortunately, I had to say, "No". I might as well have written them a check for $319.00 or purchased that amount of food.
For those of you who do not know what this program is about, it is as simple as this.
I would like to thank everyone in our community who attended the Heart Health Initiative sponsored by the Spencer County Democrats Executive Committee on Friday, Feb 19.
Our featured speaker, Lt Gov Dan Mongiardo, outlined three simple steps to achieving wellness: watch your diet, exercise and stop smoking.
As a physician, Dr Mongiardo is a dedicated advocate for heart health and I think all who attended came away with a renewed resolve to take more personal responsibility and to make health improvement a number 0ne priority in 2010!
Judge Executive David Jenkins may have been joking when he suggested the fire protection district contribute to the cost of hiring 911 dispatchers, but it was City Commissioner Kathy Spears who took the issue very seriously.
At a meeting Thursday afternoon, Spears wanted to know why the Spencer County-Taylorsville Fire Department was not contributing to the cost of dispatch services. Firefighters are, after all, benefiting from 911 just like city police, EMS and the Sheriff's office. "Why does the fire department pay nothing," Spears said.
Last week's story about a plan to build a 24-unit housing complex for low-income families brings to mind the old adage buyer beware. According to one resident, he had no idea that such a plan existed near his home in Old South Plantation. And if the $4 million patio-style homes do materialize, he's selling. Regardless of how much is spent or how well the apartments blend in with the area, this homeowner said he wants to get out before his investment depreciates.
With all of the publicity in the news media about "no more CATS", you may be wondering what that means for your child? There will still be assessment and accountability in Kentucky during the 2009/10 and 2010/11 school years. The Kentucky Core Content Test (KCCT) will be given again this year for students in 3rd – 8th grades and 10th and 11th grades. This test will be given across the state from April 19 - April 30. Each school will have six days during that period of time in which to give the tests. Make-up tests can be given on any day durin
You are cordially invited to the Spencer County FFA Agricultural Commodity Breakfast at the Spencer County High School on February 15 from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.
Parenting in today's world can be a daunting task. As Attorney General, I have worked hard to give parents and law enforcement the tools they need to better protect Kentucky kids. Sadly, sometimes the things we least expect pose the greatest danger to our children.
I would like to thank you, Spencer County, for turning out in large numbers for the Lincoln Day Dinner last Friday evening. Though the weather was wet and rainy, the crowd was enthusiastic and energized!
Candidates for the U.S. Senate and House, the State Senate, House and local offices spoke and personally answered questions during the evening. It was a great way to get to know the candidates and their positions. The event drew the attention of CNN, which filmed the speeches and interviewed the candidates for a piece to be broadcast sometime in the next week.

Allergies Health Center
Allergic Rhinitis - Cause
Allergic rhinitis, often called hay fever, occurs when your immune system overreacts to particles in the air that you breathe-you are allergic to them. Your immune system causes symptoms such as sneezing and a runny nose. The particles are called allergens, which simply means they can cause an allergic reaction.
Several types of allergens cause allergic rhinitis, including pollens, mold, dust mites, animal dander, and cockroaches. Although polluted air is not an allergen, it can irritate your nose and lungs. An irritated nose or lungs may make an allergic reaction more likely when you breathe in an allergen.

Released: Mar 01st, 2006
Running Time: 144
Director: Nicky Starks
Company: Darkside Entertainment
Cast: Bijan Sudaan, Michelle Tucker, Sunshine (I), Jersey Montana, Shadow Cat
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gonzo
There are some nice visual effects used in this celebration of the beefy black beauty butt. But it doesn't help the only average sex that is later displayed. Big round butts are on ample display, and there's, thankfully, not a lot of time wasted with talking and interviews. In addition, the girls seem to really be enjoying themselves for the most part, but only a few highlights stand out.
Michelle Tucker performs a great opening, enjoying his attention to her body with an oil rub down and lots of cunnilingus. And if she's faking those two orgasms, she's a hell of an actress, her body and voice wracked with believable desire. Unfortunately, this is followed by Sunshine suffering through a male partner more interested in following the gansta brutha routine. Her disgusted face throughout belies her feelings.
This ends on a higher note, with Shadow Cat, an all-around thicker beauty, and Jersey Montana, giving deep sucking head and energetic ass shaking.
Retailing: For your black section.

"Go For A Beer or 16!! The Goat and Tricycle" Top 5 Page for this destination Bournemouth Things to Do Tip by johngayton
Bournemouth Things to Do: 63 reviews and 141 photos
If you like a drop of proper beer then seek out The Goat and Trike. This slightly-out-of-town pub is owned by the Wiltshire brewery Wadworth (best known for their 6X) and whilst they always stock at least 5 of their own brews they also stock up to 11 guest ales from independent small breweries around the country. It's almost like visiting a mini beer festival!
The pub itself is characterful with its impressive Poole Pottery frontage and internal proper pub decor. It offers a good menu of reasonably-priced homecooked food and generally the staff are pleasant and professional.
On the half-a-dozen times I've visited the beer (whatever was on offer at the time) has always been spot-on but somehow the ambience always fails to excite - that's because no-one talks to each other unless they know them.
But worth a visit anyway (just bring your own company).
Address: 27-29 Westhill Road
Directions: In the area known as The Triangle at the top of Commercial Road heading west from the town centre.

Up until the end of July 2013 my Facebook page for my website has been automatically posting the posts from the website. However since then it has stopped. I have checked the Jetpack and Publicize and it says Facebook is connected (I presume as it says 'shared' next to the Facebook icon). When I create a new post down the right hand side it says that it will post to Facebook and Twitter.
Twitter is working fine and still posting correctly. I'm unsure whether it is a problem with WordPress or Facebook.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Wow, great work. Where did you get the photo for the girl? Only part that doesn't fit is her face, it looks a lot older than the new game's Lara (21 I think). Maybe it's the eye make-up.

Think of good posture as an anti-aging tool. Good posture means improved flexibility, a healthier back and fewer injuries.
Biomarker #6: Strength
For years and years — okay decades — I was a cardio-only exerciser. I swam. I biked and hiked. I treadmilled and EFXed. I cross-country skiied. Now that I understand the importance of muscle building and maintenance to overall fitness, health and vitality, I train with weights three times a week. At home, I like the 7-minute workout (app is free), which I repeat three times. At the gym, I alternate between free weights and machines. I also take classes at Barre3, an studio routine that uses very light weights and very small movements and is probably the hardest (and most satisfying) exercise I do right now. All help build muscle, which is far more metabolically active than fat. That means muscle burns more calories, even when you're not using it — so muscle-maintenance is weight maintenance. But, more important, building and maintaining muscle is a major anti-aging strategy.
More muscle. Less fat. That's the idea. I've written before about the fat-to-lean ratio as a biomarker of aging. Here I want to talk about strength (as a consequence of muscle) as a biomarker.
Older people are "weaker" than younger people because older people have less muscle mass, and the muscle they do have is less dense and works less efficiently. Between the ages of 30 and 70, the average person loses 20 percent of the "motor units" (the bundles of muscle fibers and the associated nerves that make up a muscle) in large and small muscle groups, and 30 percent of all muscle cells. And the cells that remain get smaller. And are marbled with fat. Less muscle equals less strength. Less strength leads to "I've fallen and I can't get up" and other such horrors of old(er) age. Less muscle means less endurance. Less endurance leads to less activity which leads to decrease in muscle…and so it goes.
The beauty of this — I know this doesn't sound beautiful, but hold on — is that the progression (or, really, regression) is linear and logical, and therefore both understandable and fixable. So we can reverse it. Much of the weakness of older people has less do to with the passage of time than it has to do with the passage of time spent on the couch. Lack of strength is not a "natural" consequence of aging. It is a natural consequence of not actively building and maintaining muscle. Emphasis on the actively. Want the energy, stamina, strength and endurance that will keep you healthy and vital? Build muscle. Want a youthful fat-to-lean ratio? Build muscle. When you build muscle you build endurance which helps you…you guess it, build muscle. And you know what? It's even kind of fun.

Excellent article. As a personal trainer and Fitness Instructor for 20+ years I completely agree and can testify to personal examples of 70 year olds that can out lift and out endure 20ish year olds in lifting and endurance activities, just because they have been continuing to push and challenge their bodies. Go with all you can do now and increase safely with weight bearing challenges as long as you can.

Thanks, Angie. It's wonderful to hear about older people who keep up their strength — and the tough trainers who work with them!

I agree, but not in all cases. It depends on when the stroke happened and what was its reason:
When tha patient had the stroke because of big-big stress, massage is OK. But if he/she has narrow blood vessels, high blood pressure, vascular calcification, it depends on the physician! If he allows to do the massage and give a paper, it's OK.
It's better not to make the clients condition worse if it's dangerous.
So ask the physician 1st, pls.

After a stroke the brain has an amazing ability to relearn movement using other neurones or nerve cells. It is called plasticity. Massage improves blood flow through the limbs. However in the long term if you mobilise the limbs and joints at the same time as asking them to visualise them moving, their brain eventually takes over and makes the limb move. Some research shows that by restraining the "good limb" the other limb has to work harder to achieve the task.

I'm a scientist working in bioinformatics at EMBL-EBI and the University of Cambridge. I grew up in Berlin and Lyon.
Most of my time is spent analysing genomic data from high-throughput sequencing. My PhD thesis was about the regulation of expression of non-coding RNA (especially tRNA) in mammals.
My main programming interests span from C++ over .NET and dynamic languages (Python, R …) all the way to XHMTL/CSS.

I've got a page where I want to query some posts with a non-hierarchal custom taxonomy 'uses'. If I specify one use (say 'decking') it works fine.
<?php query_posts( array( 'uses' => 'decking', 'showposts' => 100, 'order' => 'ASC' ) ); ?>
However, I want the page to display all posts that are either 'decking' or 'flooring' (or both). I can't find any way of doing it that works. I saw some older threads about it not being able to be done in 2.8, but I'd have thought it would have been addressed by 3.0?

Not officially. You may call pthread_{s,g}etschedparam via alien.
