Anyone tired the Taylor Knox surfing fitness video, that guy is a training animal and from what i have seen of small clips showing his training his workouts are balance & core specific and it works the fast twitch muscles associated with surfing. I have been eyeing that video for a while, but I dont really train, would like to be in great shape at 36 but guess im too lazy

Swim and do burpies. I did this every day for 2 months before a surf trip and not only did I have to buy smaller board shorts, I ended up buying a smaller shortboard at the last minute.

I swear by this. I think Micah still has it in the Swell Info store.
I've been doing it about 18 months now. I'm an old guy (50+), and it's been a long, long time since I was this fit. It has strength, core, stretching, and yoga all built in. Oh, and it has pop-ups, and push-ups you do while balanced on a stability ball. They are killers.
It's similar to the Taylor Knox, less intense though - which is a good thing when you're first starting out. I've lost a significant amount of weight and kept it off. My wetsuits certainly fit a lot better these days. And my board size down too. In the 6's for the first time in decades.
It is a little light on cardio, but you can make that up in other ways.

Check out the Vasa trainer. It simulates the motion of paddling, and builds all the right muscle groups. It also has other workout options for other muscle groups, but for building paddling strength, I've never worked out on a piece of equipment like this when I can't get in the water.

squats/lunges/deadlifts will give you more power.

\nIt's astounding, time is fleeting
\nMadness takes its toll
\nBut listen closely, not for very much longer
\nI've got to keep control
\nI remember doing the Time Warp
\nDrinking those moments when
\nThe blackness would hit me and the void would be calling
\nLet's do the time warp again...
\nLet's do the time warp again!
\nIt's just a jump to the left
\nAnd then a step to the right
\nWith your hands on your hips
\nYou bring your knees in tight
\nBut it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane,
\nLet's do the Time Warp again!
\nWhat can I say, i've been Rocky.

Ive been doing p90x for about 6 months now and it has definitely helped add power to my surfing. It works your whole body plus there are some intense cardio workouts. I thought I was in good shape until I started this. Im now 39 and in the best shape of my life! Good luck!!

Pull-ups and more pull-ups and then weighted pull-ups when you can do a ton of bodyweight pull-ups (15+ in a set). Don't do kipping pull-ups. Do neutral to wide-grip pull-ups from a deadhang, or almost a deadhang if it's uncomfortable on your elbows.. You'll be clawing into waves like never before.
\nBench-press for quicker pop-ups. You don't need to lower the barbell/dumbbells all the way to your chest, that puts a bunch of strain on your shoulders. I'd suggest never doing a separate gym workout any day you surf to save your shoulders. I'd recommend taking at least a day off after a surf day to save your shoulders. Pretty much: be wary of your shoulders, they're fragile.
\nSquats and dead-lifts for leg power. Both exercises will also hit your abdominals and lower back if you're doing them right. Form is pretty paramount for both exercises because you can screw yourself up if you're doing them wrong. Remember to keep your back straight. Never round your back doing either of these exercises.

I joined a Crossfit box a few months ago. Let me tell you, what a difference! The combination of weightlifting and gimnastics definitely helps to get the power surfing most of us want. Crossfit is expensive - however all boxes upload a different workout to their sites every day so you can basically do CF for free at home.

I'll try to make this short as possible, but since I'm a landlocked surfer much of the time now, I've had some time to think about this. For surfing power and strength, the areas you want to focus on in order are:
\nWarmup - internal and external rotation with light resistance for shoulders, also look up thoracic extension on youtube. It's important to have your lower- and middle traps active. For the legs, it's about hip mobility, such as scorpions and standing leg swings.
\n1. Paddle power - Chest and lats - try standing push downs using a cable machine, such as the lat pulldown machine. Sets of 6-8 going heavy as comfortable given that you need to engage your trunk muscles as though you're doing a plank. If this machine is not accessible, you can lay down and do dumbbell pull overs, single-arm or two. Pullups are also great, but you don't have to do more than sets of 8 to begin with. It's more important to do them in good form than to get high reps for optimum strength gains. Once you gain strength, then go for speed and thus improved power
\nAlso, explosive pushups (like clap pushups, see how high you can get), sets of 6-8 reps, which can be progressed to explosive pushup-to-surf stance. Try both regular and switch stance for added agility. Other fun things to try are: medicine ball chest passes towards the sky, eccentric pushups.
\n2. Shoulders - more so for endurance, but to be able to keep up with bigger days and later in the session, your shoulders need to be able to reach above your head at a hurried pace so that you can use this newfound paddle power. Try standing snow angels with a light resistance band for up to 30 reps. Just be careful if you have ever had shoulder issues. I usually do 30, 25, 20 with 30 seconds between sets, then the next session I'll go up from 20 to 30. Standing, dumbbell shoulder presses are also good, and you can occasionally go heavier for strength/power in the shoulders. Now that top or wetsuit feels a bit less confining...
\n3. Core - think of your core as the clutch to a manual car: it has to remain stable while the joints around it maneuver (think layback snap). Planks, athlete's planks with progressions, tacos (laying flat, raising arms and legs to meet in center, then try opposing, single arm to leg), side planks, bicycles
\n4. Legs - agility and also balance (especially in the lower leg and ankle), are components of the ability to stand on one leg and functions of core activation. Try single-leg deadlifts, starting out with little or no weight then maybe adding a light dumbbell in the opposite arm. Side lunges with a light dumbbell held in front, up by the chin, will promote trunk activation as well. Oh yea, do them barefoot!
\n5 - Conditioning - surf, until your shoulders won't budge and then go a bit more. Try not stopping paddling for more than 5-10 seconds per session - I call them wave-count sessions, or the over-eager session. Swimming is also good, and H.I.I.T. is indeed a great way to keep in top shape. Try sand sprints of about 25-50 yards, with a minute to 90 seconds rest at first, or intervals on stairs for an added challenge - gravity makes you work harder. I also like 500-meter intervals on rowing machines and suicides/playing basketball.
\n6. Flexibility - think of your muscles as rubber bands: you want the right relationship between strength and length depending on your surfing style. Hips, especially the adductors (inside) and hamstrings - happy baby, pigeon pose, butterfly, forward fold or sprinter stretch are a good start, but do some research for where you may be tight. Also shoulder-joint mobility, as in the aforementioned internal-, external rotation and thoracic extension.
\nOh yea, I'm an exercise physiologist. Please keep posting pics because I can't surf during the work week! Please provide feedback as well, as this is an imperfect set up.

I'm an ex-wrestler (high school, collegiate, international), ex-wrestling coach, 56 year old guy who has had spinal surgery (so there are a lot of things I can't do!), but I still have a great and simple workout that always seems to have me ready for surfing adventures. I do sets of pull-ups, hanging body crunches (while doing the pull ups - slowly - not with inertia), push-ups, and squats to parallel with my feet about 1.5 to 2X shoulder width apart, one after another with as little rest as possible. It takes me about 16 minutes to do 4 sets to maximum, my heart rate gets up around 170-175 for much of the time, and it doesn't hurt any of my old injuries. The following article might be of interest. Have fun!! http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2991639/

Burpees a.k.a. "Squat Thrusts". We had to do countless numbers in wrestling practice in High School. Naturally seems like a staple exercise for surfing.

I agree with Burpees, they are brutal. Try throwing lateral jumps over a gym bag for mixing it up. P90 is good, but I think the DVDs called " Rush Fit", by George St Pierre are the best thing out there if you don't mind working out at home.

I have a Banach space $B$ and a continuous linear transformation $F:B \rightarrow B\times B$. One of the induced transformations $F(1):B \rightarrow B$ and $F(2):B \rightarrow B$ into the factors of the product has closed range. Must F have closed range? I have the max norm on the product, i.e., $\|F(x) \| = max\{\|F(1)(x)\|, \|F(2)(x)\|\}$ for $x$ in $B$. I was hoping to use the minimum moduli of the $F(i)$ to provide an affirmative answer.
No. Consider $F(x)=(f(x),0)$ where $f$ does not have closed range.

Arsal has also taken in hundreds of Syrian refugee families, most from villages in Homs province, about 25 kilometers (15 miles) to the northeast. Some of the refugees rent apartments, while others live with Arsal families or in a small camp on the outskirts of town, where tents are being replaced by cinderblock shacks to prepare for the harsh mountain winter.
Rebel fighters have also used Arsal as a temporary haven to rest from the fighting across the border.
Peach farmer-turned-fighter Mohammed Yousef left his village of Zara in Homs province late last month after airstrikes destroyed his home and many others in the village. He reached Arsal after a seven-hour cross-border trek across mountainous terrain, he said, adding that several dozen of his fellow rebels do the same from time to time.
"Arsal is the ... mother of the revolution," the 25-year-old said affectionately of his Lebanese hosts who have sheltered his extended family of 10 in an empty building.
Yousef dismissed Syrian troops as largely ineffective, saying most can be bribed, but swore to exact revenge from Hezbollah, which he blamed for the destruction in his village. "We want to slaughter Hassan Nasrallah, the dog," Yousef said of the Hezbollah leader. "He shelled us, he destroyed our houses, and killed our children."
Hezbollah denies that it is fighting alongside regime forces, and a spokesman declined further comment Monday.
Lebanese security officials have said a number of Hezbollah activists recently buried in the Bekaa Valley had been killed in fighting in Syria, while Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, told the U.N. Security Council on Monday that "Nasrallah's fighters are now part of Assad's killing machine."
Hojeiri, the school principal, said tensions between Shiites and Sunnis in the valley have been rising since the start of the Syrian revolt. Each side is aware of the other's loyalties, and people are careful not to talk about politics when someone from the other sect is present, he said.
"People here don't want another (sectarian) war," he said.
In the past, ties between the communities were civil and even warm, he said, noting that some 200 men in Arsal are married to Shiite women from nearby villages.
For years, religious differences seemed unimportant, he said. Even during Lebanon's civil war, with its frequently shifting alliances, Shiites and Sunnis were partners more often than they were foes.
Timor Goksel, a former official in the U.N. peacekeeping force in south Lebanon, said he believes the two sides have too much to lose by bringing the Syrian conflict home.
"Sunnis are very much involved in stone quarrying and the Shiite families are mostly involved in the hashish business," he said. "Both sides respect each other's turfs and have their own livelihoods, hashish and stone."
Perhaps that's why the valley has not seen sectarian clashes — unlike the majority-Sunni Tripoli, where sporadic fighting between pro- and anti-Syrian groups has killed more than two dozen people since May.
However, Sarkis Naoum, a columnist for Lebanon's An Nahar daily said the sectarian tensions bubbling under the surface could erupt at any time.
"If anything major happens, what is happening in Syria could expand into Lebanon," he said.

"Working to improve the health of kidney patients world-wide"
UKCRN ID 2542, NCT00125593, EudraCT 2004-001156-37, ISRCTN 54137607
Video: Professor Colin Baigent discusses the SHARP Results
The Study of Heart and Renal Protection (SHARP) concluded that around a quarter of all heart attacks, strokes, and operations to open blocked arteries could be avoided in people with chronic kidney disease by using the combination of ezetimibe and simvastatin to lower blood cholesterol levels.
The SHARP study involved almost 9,500 volunteers aged 40 or over with chronic kidney disease recruited from 380 hospitals in 18 countries. Volunteers were randomly allocated to take either cholesterol-lowering therapy with a tablet containing ezetimibe 10mg daily and simvastatin 20mg daily, or matching dummy "placebo" tablets for an average of 5 years.
Summary of major findings:
Taking the combination of ezetimibe and simvastatin long-term reduced the risk of heart attacks, strokes and operations to open blocked arteries by about one quarter in people with chronic kidney disease, irrespective of the severity of their disease
This combination treatment reduced risk safely, and may be particularly good for kidney patients as it avoids the possibility of side-effects with high statin doses
There was no support for previous concerns with ezetimibe about possible adverse effects on cancer, and no evidence of an increased risk of muscle or liver problems
"This is excellent news for patients who have kidney disease. It was already known that cholesterol-lowering could reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes and the need for surgery to unblock arteries in people with normal kidney function. But, this trial now shows that cholesterol-lowering has similar effects in people with chronic kidney disease. Taking ezetimibe plus simvastatin long-term would avoid around one quarter of heart attacks, strokes and operations to unblock arteries, leading to their prevention in at least 250,000 people with kidney disease worldwide each year."
"In SHARP there was no evidence of any serious adverse effects and, in particular, no support for earlier concerns that ezetimibe might cause cancer. SHARP shows clearly that the large cholesterol reduction produced with this treatment is safe, and provides similar benefits to those seen in people with normal kidney function."

Hi all,
This may or may not be a problem, I don't know...
Sometimes when I publish a post I get a "cannot find server" page saying "The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. blah blah" after a short while.
However, the post's are always published. Is this anything to worry about?

Parking is very limited, so limited that freshmen can't have their cars on campus and if you're not a freshman, it's usually first come first serve.
Parking is much better than it used to be but still much improvement to be done. There are a number of lots to park on with permit and open street parking but seldom parking close to campus which can sometimes be frustrating.
The parking lots are very small and there is no guaranteed spot even if you own a permit
Campus parking is not very good its $80 dollars for a year and you are not guaranteed a spot.
parking is ok not the best permit cost is ok public transportation is much cheaper and convenient

NEW YORK -- Knicks president Donnie Walsh says he will probably begin discussions with Nate Robinson's agent Monday about a request to trade the benched guard.
That's assuming Robinson really wants to be dealt.
Robinson said Sunday his preference is to stay with the Knicks, the day after his agent told Walsh he would like to look into getting his client out of New York.
The request came after Robinson was benched for eight straight games by coach Mike D'Antoni. Robinson says he is still ready to play for the Knicks, but added, "I haven't got that privilege to play the way that I like to play."

Nicholas Briganti Venice Antique Painting Signed
NICHOLAS P. BRIGANTI (AMERICAN, 1895-1989) "VIEW OF VENICE", Signed lower right "N. Briganti"
Item # 1405YLP18P
This absolutely gorgeous work captures the shimmering waters of the Venice Lagoon from the perspective of local fishermen along the shores of the marsh, the city rising in the distance with it's spires and domes piercing the horizon of a late morning sky. The style and subject are quite typical of Briganti, a very well listed artist who specialized in landscapes of Venice throughout the 20th Century. His works have been offered extensively at auction, much of his work achieving the mid-to-high four-figures. The present example is a very fine representation of his skill, a highly diverse impressionistic work full of life and color. For anyone passionate about Venetian scenes, this is a fine investment grade work of outstanding size and condition.
Marks: Stretcher inscribed on upper left "# 8064 Venice" w/ old gallery label from Loeser's of Brooklyn. Stretcher bar retains ink stamp of "Fredrix of New York" on side.
Notes: E. Benezit, "Dictionary of Artists, vol. II", Gründ, p. 1248 - brief notes on Briganti as well as extensive notes on auction results through 2004.
Measurements: [framed] 44 3/8" wide x 34 3/8" high; [canvas] 38 1/16" wide x 28" high
Condition Report: Under UV the painting appears to be untouched and in fully original condition. Original lining and stretcher, the frame almost certainly original to the painting. Two surface scratches in upper-mid quadrant (in sky); light and consistent craquelure throughout surface; varnish yellowing - the painting would be much more vibrant if cleaned, and we can arrange to have this completed by our conservationist upon request (note it can take several months, but the result is always outstanding); frame with large gesso loss in upper right corner and much crackling, all corners with minor losses. Some separation between interior and exterior frame (not particularly visible, but worth noting). A very attractive work in well preserved condition.
Contact us for a full slideshow of images on this piece - we typically have anywhere between 30-150 additional images for each item we carry!

All the examples I've seen so far about Spring configuration have
<bean class = "org.example.complex.package.path.FooClass" >
I wonder if this can be simplified through a mechanism similar to Java imports, something like:
<beans ...>
<import name = "org.example.complex.package.path.FooClass" />
<import name = "org.example.another-package.*" />
<bean class = "FooClass" >...</bean>
<bean class = "AnotherClass">...</bean>
Alternatively (or in addition), does XML support namespaces in attribute values? Something like:
<beans xmlns:foo="org.example.complex.package.path." ...>
<bean class = "foo:FooClass" ...>
I would need this for other purposes too (e.g., working with RDF's URIs). My understanding is that this is supported by some software, but not a standard XML feature.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - A federal judge ruled Friday that the case against cousins 31-year-old Born King and 27-year-old Fahiym Hussain Pearson be turned over to a grand jury.
Others charged in the case are 32-year-old Robert Leo Kelly and
John Edward Frost. A fifth defendant, Stephen Lewis Raney, has not
yet been caught by authorities.
Authorities say King and Pearson would recruit from homeless
shelters, buy the recruits new clothing and send them to banks to
cash checks altered with a typewriter.
The companies include Treasure Bay Hotel & Casino in Gulfport,
Miss., and All South Vinyl and Siding in Robertsdale, Ala.

"Hank" Carter, founder of Wheelchair Charities Inc., in recognition of his 40 years of support to New Yorkers with disabilities and his more than $25 million in donations to HHCs Coler-Goldwater Specialty Hospital and Nursing Facility.
This is the first time HHC will name one of its public healthcare facilities for a living individual.
"Naming this new facility after Hank Carter is a fitting tribute to his remarkable generosity and compassionate spirit," HHC President Alan D. Aviles said in a news release. "Hank Carter has given the HHC family much more than valuable equipment to help our patients.
"He has dedicated hours of personal time to regularly walk the hallways of our facility," Aviles said.
"I credit God for what I have been able to give back to my community," Carter said. "This is really an honor."
The Henry J. Carter Specialty Hospital and Nursing Facility will be at Madison Avenue and 122nd Street in Manhattan, and will be the new home of the Goldwater Specialty Hospital and Nursing Facility, which is currently on Roosevelt Island. A new Harlem-based long-term care hospital and skilled nursing facility, nearly 400,000 square feet of new and renovated space, will be completed in late fall of 2013. The HHC board of directors unanimously approved the naming at its June meeting.
Construction of the facility began in January.
This $285 million project is being financed through New York City general obligation bonds and New York State HEAL grant funds. HHC will host an official naming ceremony for the Henry J. Carter Specialty Hospital and Nursing Facility before the opening of the new building in late 2013.

The Jobs Picture: Seeing Through The Snow
The number of jobs in the U.S. fell by 36,000 last month, and the unemployment rate held steady at 9.7%, according to figures out this morning from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The jobs picture was almost certainly hurt by February's big snowstorms, which prevented some people from making it to work (for more on that, see this post from yesterday). The commissioner of the BLS said today the weather may have affected the jobs numbers, but added that "there are too many unknowns to say precisely how much the weather might have affected these measures."
In any case, the rate of job loss is slowing — in February of 2009, by comparison, the economy lost 726,000 jobs. And many analysts expect the economy to start adding jobs this year.
"We are almost there, the point where we are consistently adding jobs," Ken Mayland, president of ClearView Economics, told Bloomberg News. "The economy is making incremental but broad-based gains towards improvement."
There are about 131 million non-farm payroll jobs in the U.S., and more than 8 million jobs have been lost since the start of the recession.
A few other interesting details in today's numbers:
- The number of jobs in the construction industry fell, and the number of jobs in health care rose — both trends that have run throughout the recession.
- The number of people working part time who preferred full-time work was 8.8 million in February, up from January but down from the last months of 2009.
- Calculated Risk has an updated version of a graphic that shows just how bad job losses have been in this recession, compared with other recessions since World War II.

Woman Protests E-Cigarette Ban by Smoking in Bloomberg's Presence
At his last bill signing as mayor, Michael Bloomberg gave tobacco one final kick on his way out, while a smoking advocate fought back futilely. "Vaping" is now officially included in the Smoke-Free Air Act of 2002, effectively banning e-cigarettes everywhere the real things are prohibited. In an act of defiance, a woman identified as pesky smoking advocate Audrey Silk lit up inside City Hall.
"Okay," Bloomberg told the woman "I think its time to leave". Woman was escorted out, as mayoral security guard snatched cigarette.— Michael Barbaro (@mikiebarb) December 30, 2013
Security guard grabbed cigarette away from activist Audrey Silk. @MikeBloomberg fairly non-plussed, says we "just don't allow" smoking here.— Erin Durkin (@erinmdurkin) December 30, 2013
Smell of smoke now lingering over Blue Room. First time a cigarette's been smoked in this room in, well, a long time.— Michael Barbaro (@mikiebarb) December 30, 2013
"Bermuda, Bermuda, Bermuda," says Bloomberg's internal monologue.

Sorry, this product is no longer in stock.
A must have for all hair types!
Posted by 4779575749754496443 on Feb 19, 2014
A really, really good product! I have fine hair so when I shampoo I concentrate on my roots only and don't let shampoo get to the lengths of my hair so they won't dry out. This shampoo makes me hair so shiny, soft and squeaky clean that I will continue using this product, probably for years to come! I have not noticed any rapid hair growth which was one of the factors why I bought this product... The label in the shampoo does not claim to do that, some people have just been lucky to have faster hair growth after using this product, I guess. :)

Comments about Jupiter 470 Series 4-Valve Euphonium:
I remember when Jupiter was an also-ran brand, the quality was not quite as high as the main companies in this business, but this is not true anymore. Jupiter is a very high quality brand and these euphoniums are great! The player needs to take a little time to adjust the valve slides to the best positions, and once that is done this instrument plays in tune consistently. It has a nice big sound and feels a lot like the 4-valve euphonium brand from Japan that starts with Y and ends with a.

"Memo Style" here is a print style which Outlook automatically picks for printing. Is there any way to give a document any custom name so we can track it in printer queue?
It can either be creating a new print style with custom name or explicitly specifying a custom document name.
Basically, we just need emails printed from Outlook to appear in printer queue with unique names. Please advise.

Teens Who Drink Too Much
May 15, 2000 -- Teenage drinking is on the rise, and a number of organizations nationwide have introduced programs to help parents and teens identify problem drinking before it does long-term damage. Jeffry Hon, speaking for the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (NCADD), a 66-year-old volunteer organization, says that starting early is key.
"Parents should start educating their children on alcohol use from the moment they are able to observe behavior. A toddler may not be articulate enough to ask questions, but when daddy comes home, goes straight to the fridge, and says, 'Don't bother me until I've had a beer,' that sends a message to a young child that may not be appropriate."
This list of tips for parents compiled by the nonprofit Oregon Partnership stresses the importance of good communication as the years go by. Here's a list of that organization's "Strategies to build a stronger relationship with your child":
- Start talking with your child in grade school about the dangers of alcohol, tobacco, and drug use.
- Let teens know you disapprove of drug use and underage drinking and why.
- Set rules and consequences for teenage drinking, tobacco, and drug use.
- Do not serve alcohol to anyone underage.
- Do not allow unchaperoned parties at your house.
- Call host's parents to ensure that parties your children are attending are supervised and alcohol-free.
- Get involved in parent support groups.
- If you choose to drink, set a good example by limiting your own use of alcohol, and never use alcohol as a way of coping with problems.
- If your teenager has a drinking or drug problem, seek professional help.

Billionaire fund manager Bill Gross claims he has suffered damages in excess of $200 million from Pimco, his former employer. » Read More
Former Pimco Chief Economist Paul McCulley, discusses the future of the U.S. dollar, Fed policy, Europe's long-term liquidity problem.
Former Pimco Chief Economist Paul McCulley discusses the end of the Bill Gross era at Pimco and why he is bullish on the company's future.
Scott Maher, US CIO and manager of PIMCO's Total Return Fund, explains why he's looking for opportunities in Europe.
Reuters is reporting Pimco's Paul McCulley will step down as chief economist and managing director.
Scott Mather has turned PIMCO into the top 1 percent of all bond funds after taking over the role of CIO. Mather shares his strategies for success and expectations from the Fed.
Australia took a double-whammy from record-low interest rates and commodity-price drops, but the selloff has left its market attractive to yield chasers.
Government bond yields in the U.S., Europe and Japan are plumbing lows, suggesting a flight to safety, but analysts aren't ready to hit the panic button.
Scott Mather, PIMCO CIO, says his firm will move very slow on interest rates.
Bond guru Jeffrey Gundlach said he expects the Fed to raise rates in 2015, but not on the strength of economic fundamentals.
CNBC's Sara Eisen speaks to DoubleLine Capital CEO Jeffrey Gundlach, about the impact Bill Gross' departure from Pimco had on his business. Eisen reports DoubleLine has seen $2.6 billion of inflows in October.
Former CEO Mohamed El-Erian received a bonus of $230 million and co-founder and former CIO Bill Gross walked away with $290 million. John Martini, Reed Smith LLC Partner, and "Shark Tank" investor Kevin O'Leary provide perspective into the board's approval.
Pimco can withstand additional outflows of up to $350 billion over the next two years before it is impaired, Morningstar says.
German insurer Allianz raised its dividend and promised to keep the cash flowing after unveiling a forecast-beating jump in net profit.
The collapse of mortgage-backed securities drove the financial crisis, but many fund managers are snapping up the precrisis offerings.
Add a new concern to the stable of high-yield bond risks: ownership of some companies' issuance has become concentrated with just a few fund managers.
"Asset-backed securities" have been beneficiaries of quantitative easing by the US Fed, which is due to end this week. The Financial Times reports.
Scott Minerd of Guggenheim Partners, has seen an acceleration of flows in the past few months, but it is not known whether they're coming from Pimco or somewhere else. Minerd provides perspective on interest rates and the bond market.
Russell Investments and the Fort Lauderdale Police & Fire Retirement System dropped PIMCO as their bond portfolios manager following the exit of Bill Gross.
High-yield bonds offer compelling valuations and better fundamentals following the selloff since mid-year, Pimco said in a note Thursday.
Gross's unusual behavior have been well documented, but what is as remarkable is how Pimco came to believe Gross was a liability. The FT reports.

Patience among Andy Dalton's better traits
By Coley Harvey
CINCINNATI -- Twitter can be a pro athlete's worst nightmare, if he allows it to be.
Just ask Bengals quarterback
Andy Dalton
about the obscenities he's had to sift through on his own feed for part of the past month and a half.
"There are times when it can be extreme," Dalton said while cracking a smile earlier this week.
It was during a three-game stretch in which his passer rating never made it out of the 60s, his QBR didn't climb past 17.3 and his interceptions outweighed his touchdowns that Dalton's name was trashed on social media more than he cared to further acknowledge. On the heels of a 30-day stretch that earned him AFC Player of the Month, Dalton's downturn was apparently quite jarring for some.
Andy Dalton passed for three touchdowns without a pick and ran for another score against the Colts.
But not him. As he weathered the rocky three games, the third-year quarterback maintained the exact same demeanor in news conferences and media availability settings that he had during better days. Just like he never got too high on his praise, he wasn't getting very low on his criticisms, either. At all times, he was his same lukewarm self.
And that, as far as he is concerned, is a good thing.
"I don't know if it's in his DNA to ever show it," coach Marvin Lewis said. "But yet, he's obviously riding the wave of what it takes to play quarterback in the NFL. It's a difficult job. It's like playing cornerback on the other side. You've got to have some toughness to you and some thick skin in order to do it week in and week out and just keep doing your thing."
What Dalton did last weekend against the Colts was resurrect his play and put on a showcase that led to him being named the AFC's latest Offensive Player of the Week. Three passing touchdowns and one rushing score in a win will do that.
It was a Good Andy sighting, and one the Bengals hope to see more of as the playoff chase gets hotter.
Patience -- the kind Dalton exhibited in scrolling past and not responding to profane tweets -- is one reason why there is a measure of optimism in Cincinnati that he may be able to make the better version of himself on the field a more regular occurrence.
"Obviously you're looking for a more consistent deal from him," offensive coordinator Jay Gruden said about Dalton's accordion-like inconsistency. "We want to be perfect every snap, but we're playing great defenses every week. I think he's had a good year so far."
Although the Bengals' stout defense has been their calling card all season, Dalton has led an offense that currently ranks as the league's 10th best. He also enters this weekend ranked ninth among NFL quarterbacks in passing yards (3,419), sixth in passing touchdowns (25) and 11th in completions (290). So he has to be doing something right. Right?
Not quite. As much as Gruden's endorsement rings for Dalton, the quarterback has had his share of issues this season, too.
He has particularly struggled with turnovers. Only four quarterbacks have more interceptions than Dalton's 16 this year (
Carson Palmer
Joe Flacco
have 17;
Eli Manning
Geno Smith
have 20).
"There have been too many turnovers on my part," Dalton said. "I've been conscious about when to throw the ball away and when not to try something that could make a play worse. That's the goal going in the rest of the way: not turning the ball over. It definitely helped us last week, and if you win the turnover battle, you have a better chance of winning the game."
Last week's 42-28 win over the Colts marked the first time in six games that Dalton had not been intercepted. Thanks to his offensive line's protection, he also didn't take a sack for a third straight game.
Because he is the starting quarterback of an apparent playoff-bound team that hasn't won a postseason game since the first George Bush was president, Dalton will continue to field his share of criticism. He should. But even when he does, at least Dalton knows how to handle it.
"I'm going to be me regardless of what anyone says," Dalton said.
And that, as far as he is concerned, is a good thing.

AbstractThe development of a versatile gas sensor for use in gravitational studies and/or long-term monitoring of biological systems in space must address a number of constraints beyond those found in Earth-based systems. Southwest Sciences proposes to combine a new type of laser with high sensitivity detection methods to develop a multiple gas sensor with application to biological measurements as well as health monitoring and fire safety in space environments. This sensor would provide excellent long-term stability, accuracy, reliability, and space worthiness. The results of Phase I shall provide the critical design information required to build a deliverable prototype multigas sensor in Phase II. The Phase II effort will lead to the commercialization of a rugged, compact multigas sensor for use by NASA in space applications as well as in the commercial sector.

I love photospace and have used it on many websites, thank you so much for making such a clean and wonderful gallery. I want to use it on a website that uses the Qlassik theme from Themefuse.
It doesn't work. It shows the thumbnails, but no blow up. If you click on an image it takes you to the image file.
In fact I haven't found many gallery plugins that work with their theme. (Next Gen, and Gallerific don't work either.) They haven't been any help, they don't seem to support plug-in problems.
I am so in love with photospace, it is exactly what my client wants on their site, I thought I would write and see if anyone has also run into this problem and better yet found a solution!! My guess is it is a conflict with a jQuery script they are using. Here is a link to a page that has a gallery that is not working. http://informdesignart.com/gallery/

DOTHAN-- The Library/Technology Building on the Troy University - Dothan campus received a new name Friday morning. During a special ceremony, the university dedicated the R. Terry Everett Hall.
Everett served eight terms in the US House of Representatives where he focused on agriculture, the armed services, veterans and intelligence. He also had an impressive career as a newspaper executive and farmer.
The Troy Board of Trustees voted in July to rename the Library/Technology Building. School officials said they hope Everett's legacy will be known to many for years to come.
"I hope that when people see his name on this building that'll be one of the first conclusions they can make, "a job well done," Troy University Chancellor Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr. said.

"Taking a line sometime trod by Etta, Janis, and Shemekia, Gracie Curran has a powerhouse vocal that drives a high pulse and drains the emotional bucket dry. She and her band have only been together three years but it appears they causing quite a stir Stateside. Releasing this debut album while in Memphis though, was a blues-cultured wise move and it is being recognised as quite a debut! The high temperature mix of the electric guitar forward line, funky backdrop and ballsy vocal from the boss lady gives the whole package an innovative vibrancy; think Black Crowes..." That means it is the clever and intuitive distance her singing stays away from all the instrumental action, yet remains immersed in the same story. Stand out versions of this can be seen in..." Rock A Hard Place, but there really isn't a deviant number here; even the obligatory six minute pained slow blues, here it is Weight Of Her World, has an intensity that deserves a triumphant reception."
"The CD consists of a comfortable nine songs, all located in the soul blues pattern. The beginning is a blues gitaarlick before the winds of Roomful Of Blues bets and the rocking jump blues "One With The Rain" follows. "Take You With Me" is a sensitive ballad, beautifully sung by Gracie. In this issue, it is clear that they have a lot to her voice. She has a large range, plays with volume, sharp turn and then go back to a muffled hoarseness. The rest of the songs move between the firmer blue work and sensitive soul ballads. My favorite songs are "Rock & A Hard Place", which starts quietly and gradually builds up more and more, the swinging "Can not Getta" and the dark and lyrical "With Friends Like These". The fact that the horn of Roomful Of Blues and keyboardist Bruce Bears (Duke Robillard) do it is proof that this is a promising band. And on the CD, this is also fine transferred. A nice debut of this great band, who even once have come and present to us"
"Just got home and cranked up Gracie Curran & the High Falutin' Band. Killer grooves, stellar guitar playing and amazing singing, what else could you want? I love it."
"Quite a stunning effort for their initial release. Elements of soul, blues, gospel and funk coalesce to create a moving and heartfelt experience that should no doubt lead to a successful and ever-growing career. All the pieces fit…well-crafted band-originals, razor-sharp production and skilled musicianship all giving a rock-solid foundation to the powerhouse that is Gracie Curran. Talent as seen here deserves to be heard. With the right exposure this band should have no trouble in attaining the success that they truly deserve."
"Occasionally a vocalist comes along with such a presence that they command everyones undivided attention. Such is the case with Bostons Gracie Curran. There is nothing subtle in her booming big mama voice. Her band and the addition of a horn section match the soulful energy of her voice, hanging in and driving her along on their musical excursion. They captured the hearts and ears of Beantown by winning The Boston Blues Challenge in 2012, which propelled them to record this, their debut CD. A stinging guitar intro courtesy of Tom Carroll leads right into the first burst of Gracies pipes on the RB-meets-blues-rock meets honkin horn section goodness... The interplay of the rhythm guitar against the horns are breath taking..."
"Can I get an AMEN! Gracie Curran and her mates, The High Falutin' Band have been touring around New England and up and down the East Coast for a couple years now. They've shared the limelight with some notable luminaries including Shemekia Copeland,Toni Lynn Washington and Sugar Blue and took home the prize as Boston's Best Blues Band in 2012. Their debut album, Proof of Love, tears open your chest and breathes into your soul with a baptism of raw power and emotion. A five-alarm stew of blues, gospel and soul that burns in your gut like the first time you heard Aretha Franklin's "I Never Loved a Man." Pass the cool water, please."
"Over the years since the initial introduction I have harassed and harangued Gracie Curran, waiting for her first release. Curran's repeated refrain had always been "be patient" or "it'll happen when it is meant to happen" or other what I considered useless tautologies. I never really understood that within the ball of energy and the constant life of the party mentality Curran is also a strong musician/business woman. It took just one complete spin of Proof of Love for that epiphany. ...when listening to "Even with the Rain" it is hard not to hear Curran pay homage to Koko Taylor or other Chicago greats without regurgitating their material.""
"GRACIE CURRAN & THE HIGH FALUTIN' BAND Proof of Love 9 tracks Gracie is one of the best blues divas on the local scene today and this cd allows her to strut her stuff behind her fine band. And the result, mixed and mastered by blues harp legend Rosy Rosenblatt (D.K.'s Full House) is a great example of why our local blues scene is one of the best around. Listen to: "Can't Getta," "Take You With Me," "Even With The Rain," and "Been All Over" (with Rosy's great harp) to hear her country-blues sound at it's best. The sweet and sad twang of "Take You With Me" should be heard on country radio stations everywhere. It's always cool when blues royalty makes a cameo. Keyboardist extraordinaire Bruce Bears, from Duke Robillard's band joins in here too. I also really like when the horns are employed in her music; their brassy additions always are short and sweet and greatly add to the total package. Whether torching an Americana ballad or pouring her heart ou"
"Along with a stunningly soulful voice, Curran's trademark is her infectious, whoop-it-up enthusiasm." "Proof of Love possesses equal parts throwback soul and roadhouse swagger: "Weight of Her World" echoes Tupelo Honey-era Van Morrison, while "Jack and Mary Jane" is a straight-up rocker, and the sultry "With Friends Like These" is down- low blues worthy of Janis Joplin." "it's fitting that Curran and her band received the first pressing of the record in late January while preparing to take the stage in Memphis, Tenn., for the International Blues Challenge. It was a moment that glowed like the throwback microphone Curran sings into most nights. After representing the Boston Blues Society in the competition, Curran and her band gigged their way up the Mid-Atlantic. Every show became a CD release party, with the biggest one coming in front of a hometown crowd at sold-out Johnny D's Uptown Club in Somerville."
"The Boston Blues Society would also like to congratulate both Erin Harpe and Rosy Rosenblatt for winning the solo/duo portion of the Boston Blues Society Blues Challenge and Gracie Curran & The High Falutin' Band for winning the band portion of the competition. Both acts have earned the right to compete in Memphis at the IBC in February of 2013. Stay tuned for fundraiser information"
"We finally caught Gracie Curran & the High Falutin' Band last weekend at Mari's Place in Quincy, and as WATD DJ Peter Black had assured us for a long time, the lady can really belt out the blues. Her backing band is also extremely tight and versatile, so catch them next time they're in the area."

Overweight Child: Medical Evaluation - Topic Overview
If your child has been diagnosed by a doctor as being overweight or at risk of becoming overweight, a thorough medical exam is important to identify and treat any related health problems.
Your doctor will ask about:
- Your child's weight history, to see if your child has had an unusual change in rate of growth.
- What may have started the weight gain (such as an illness, family crisis or change, or medicine).
- A family history of obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and gallstones.
- Sleeping problems your child may have, such as sleep apnea, which means your child stops breathing at times while asleep.
- When you noticed your child's weight gain.
- Past efforts to manage weight.
- Unhealthy eating behavior, such as binge eating or fasting.
- Your child's diet and exercise history.
Causes of overweight
Your doctor will look for physical or emotional reasons for your child's weight gain, including Prader-Willi syndrome, hypothyroidism, Cushing's syndrome (all of which are rare), or emotional causes such as depression, anxiety, and eating disorders.
Some or all of the following tests will be done to help identify the cause and complications of being overweight:
- Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroid hormone. Doctors often use these tests to detect a problem affecting the thyroid gland.
- Fasting blood glucose. This test measures blood sugar levels to find out whether a person has type 2 diabetes.
- Urine free cortisol. A cortisol blood test can detect problems with the adrenal glands or pituitary gland.
- Overnight dexamethasone suppression. Doctors can use an overnight dexamethasone suppression test to screen for Cushing's syndrome, a condition in which the adrenal glands produce too much cortisol.
- Lung function tests, such as oximetry. Lung function tests (or pulmonary function tests, PFT) check how much air your child's lungs can hold, how quickly your child can move air in and out of his or her lungs, and how well your child's lungs add oxygen to the blood and remove carbon dioxide from the blood. The tests can help your child's doctor discover lung diseases and find out how bad the problem is.
Your doctor will also ask if your child is taking medicines that may result in weight gain, including:
- Antidepressants, such as amitriptyline, desipramine (Norpramin), and imipramine (Tofranil).
- Corticosteroids, such as cortisone (Cortone), hydrocortisone (Cortef), and prednisone.
- Medicines used to control seizures, such as divalproex (Depakote) and gabapentin (Neurontin).
