Pretty much all high-end smartphones out there are capable of taking great close-up photographs. Some macro shots, however, are more detailed than the rest. The Samsung Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S III, in our opinion, both excel in this category as their macro photos are full of fine details. The iPhone 5's close-ups look really good as well. The Nokia Lumia 920 and Sony Xperia Z, however, have a tendency of smudging fine details, which defies the purpose of taking photos from up close. Their macro photographs are okay, of course, yet just can't beat the results produced by the other three devices.

Samsung.. Its screen is too much dim even when brightness is full

I thought we're talking about cameras here. Did you feel threatened by Samsung and felt you needed to say something right away?
117. CanYouSeeTheLight (Posts: 1116; Member since: 05 Jul 2012)
I feel threatened by the amount of bias in this "comparison", i wonder how much Samsung and Apple payed PhoneArena? Why is the Note 2 even here? I mean its results are almost the same as the S3, only with more noise, just use a diferent phone in the comparison no point in using 2 phones that have almost the same camera.

what bias?? let your eyes be the judge... if your eyes said the samsung or the apple has the worst quality.. then so be it.. everyone has their own opinion..

"The Best Smartphone Camera"
1) Nokia Lumia 920
2) iphone 5
3) BlackBerry Z10 (Sony Xperia Z performance close to bb z10)
4) Galaxy SIII
5) Nexus 4
When you do not get money from Samsung and Apple you get different results ;)

True. even though i'm hard core fan of IOS and Android i still admit that again and again no phone including IPhone 5, Xperia Z, upcoming galaxy S4,Lumia 920, galaxy camera etc.... beat Nokia 808 Pure View camera yet. if you don't believe that just watch 1080p of 808 pure view on your pc/mac in full HD. I try out the 808 camera still the best.

Mind you they will catch up making nokia bring up their standards which in turn make them bring up their standards even more its a win win for all consumers who will have better products,
276. hitman (Posts: 1; Member since: 05 Jun 2013)
Your correct. Bias not even mentioned Nokia has the only one with OIS and others use only digital image stabilization as well nokia Lumia has aperture of 2.0 which is widest among the rest. Did not even include HTC one. This article is one sided. Clearly it is between Iphone Lumia and HTC one and Samsung comes on top. How come?
208. dr_fajardo12 (Posts: 118; Member since: 26 Aug 2012)
Don't get it, before this camera comparition iphone 5 had the better cam ( like them im not including 808), now, the iphone5 cant win against note 2, or sammy 3?. dont get it phonearena...
246. Hemlocke (unregistered)
My eyes must be screwed up, because the S3 and Note II only had one picture that appeared better (The first). Their horrible focal lengths really betray them.
252. stylinred (Posts: 50; Member since: 03 Mar 2012)
I wonder if the 920 was running the portico update which fixed the soft image issues?
either way nothing will beat the 808 pureview for awhile
265. gbpost (Posts: 3; Member since: 24 Nov 2012)
agred- that's the main problem I found with my S3- screen brightness. It's there for things like photos. But for emails, reading etc it's quite subdued.
But as we're talkgin about cameras, the Z is very good. Not as consistently good as the iphone 5, or nokia 920 (in low light) but I prefer the photos from the Z to those I used to take on the S3 (and for indoor shots I prefer the Z easily over the Note 2).

Woah... something has gone really wrong with PA lately... 920 is night photography champ, S3 and Note 2 can not be beaten in day time photography, macro and details in video, and Z has best night time video...
2-Note 2

hey! the Iphone camera isn't that bad. It certainly isn't the best, but it still is pretty decent(probably the only decent thing on that phone)
It still might be last, but it doesn't deserve to be called "ishi*t" camera-wise
just my 2 nickels
105. fahqman (Posts: 38; Member since: 06 Jan 2013)
I own a note 2 and I feel like iphone 5's pic quality is just as good as Samsung's and Sony, too.
920 is pure joke. Pure'Gray'View's hype is just like what apple did & still doing with their retina BS which isn't even 720p in 2013.
247. Hemlocke (unregistered)
Look at the S3 or N2 side-by-side with the i5 and tell me how much better those 720p screens are. The iPhone 5's screen crushes them, and the tech industry agrees with that assessment.
51. RiseAgainst94 (Posts: 281; Member since: 03 Mar 2012)
IPhone or galaxy's best in day. Lumia 920 in low light. iPhone best overall I would say. This coming from someone who will never buy an iPhone.
64. amansingal14 (Posts: 309; Member since: 08 Sep 2012)
1- Lumia 920
2-Sony Z
3-Sammy s**t3
4-Sammy Big s**t2
5-Rotten Apple iCrap
And yeah try using a Nikon DSLR, Sony Alpha instead...

Another anti-samsung person. What is wrong with you? The Galaxy Note 2 is arguably in the top 3 smartphones right now and you call it sh*t?
As dedicated android user (Nexus 7 and 4), I would still never call the iPhone crap. You're just anti-samsung, and I have no idea why.
79. asingha94 (Posts: 295; Member since: 08 Apr 2012)
Samdogs are may be in the top 3 smartphones,but we are talking here about camera.Koreans know only adding core & adding ram. They need to born one more time to make good camera phone. So go get a life.
102. maccess (Posts: 742; Member since: 16 Jan 2013)
dude.. you can read tons of reviews on the internet.. no single reviewer ever said that the s3 or note 2 camera sucks.. they even always praise that those phones has one of the the best 8mp camera.. i knew that your ip5 camera is slightly better.. but doesn't mean the samsung's suck.. grow up boy..
195. amansingal14 (Posts: 309; Member since: 08 Sep 2012)
Dude read any review, Nokia and Sony beats all others in the camera dept....
thats why I say that I shall no more view any camera comparisions on this site, iGalaxyArena

160. iushnt (Posts: 1709; Member since: 06 Feb 2013)
I think you should read the above news once again and see the ranking.. They are better in camera than 920 and Z.. Iphone 5 us ahead only by a hair. Read the news again and again until you get the point.
72. akki20892 (Posts: 3901; Member since: 04 Feb 2013)
agree bro
78. asingha94 (Posts: 295; Member since: 08 Apr 2012)
almost right bro.but in my view iphone camera is better than note 2 & s3. So it would be at number 3.It gives a good daylight performence.
174. darkkjedii (Posts: 21353; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
I can tell by how childishly your post is written that you only want attention. There's no way that Samsungs flagship devices are s**t, and the iPhone is crap. The top devices on all the charts are made by Samsung and apple, do some research dude, cuz your knowledge is sorely lacking.
198. amansingal14 (Posts: 309; Member since: 08 Sep 2012)
But iOS isn't customizable, so crap, and Samsung is cheap low quality plastic, so again s**t...
Nokia also uses plastic but high qualiy one...
212. pkiran1996 (Posts: 166; Member since: 22 Oct 2011)
"Samsung is cheap low quality plastic".
This has no effect on performance or the camera. And the sad truth is that plastic is way more durable than glass.
231. amansingal14 (Posts: 309; Member since: 08 Sep 2012)
But plastic does not look or feel premium... And it is not about camera that I prefer calling Samsung as s**t, but about the feel of it. It almost feels like your holding a super slim phone from 2006 or 2007...
The quality of these phones are rubbish. In fact, in terms of build quality, I do not like Sony either. But at least it feels premium...
262. bigdawg23 (Posts: 449; Member since: 25 May 2011)
Wow SGS3 down there and iPhone 5 further, Really?!?!? Nokie and Sony are good but the other two are up there. I have a Note 1 and iPhone 5. My Note 1 has its +/-.

Samsung just uses average cameras. The Z camera isn't perfect but its still better than Samsung.
184. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
what average camera? hahaha
SAmsung uses sony's lens but samsung knows how to optimize it and make excellent pictures :D
167. kobainez (Posts: 429; Member since: 13 Apr 2012)
In other sites xperia Z is superior to all of them. Pa is just a samdung and apple fans and this proves it. Many other sites showed amazing shots taken with xperia Z

u make us all laugh
192. timaustin2000 (Posts: 39; Member since: 15 Feb 2013)
Just hold your horses people: Once again PA seem to have overlooked that pesky focal length. Check out the amount that all the devices crop with the zoom tool. Notice a difference?
Because of the focal length of the Galaxy devices, as well as the lower MP count, the zoom crop is focusing in far shallower than it does on the XZ. Don't take my word for it, measure it yourself - it's right there.
I'm not saying that the XZ isn't a little softer BUT if you zoom all devices to the SAME crop, the Galaxy and iPhone images would PIXELATE, looking equally bad.
I'm not saying that this is intentional from PA but it certainly skews the results. The XZ images are looking softer because they're zoomed in further.

u mean " the sony camera sensors that samsung uses in sgs3" will stay the best.
261. bigdawg23 (Posts: 449; Member since: 25 May 2011)
My iPhone 5 camera far exceeds my Note 1, or previously owned SGS2 and SGSSR. My friends SGS3 is not any better then an iPhone camera. Nokia's Lumia and Sony's are very niece and many times better than iPhone 5.
2. emadshiny (Posts: 1144; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
Xperia Z and Lumia are the best. they're even better than Canon.LOL

Not according to this comparison
29. pwnarena (Posts: 1129; Member since: 15 Feb 2013)
not as presented. though i doubt if that's what the xz and lumia are really capable of doing. too dubious when you spend some good amount of time going over the samples featured by other sites.
38. Muzhhur (Posts: 260; Member since: 14 Sep 2012)
indeed, the problem is not about the lumia and sony, is that f**** photographer he is probably samsung fanboy

You're an idiot. You sound like a child and know nothing about image quality.
115. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
the one that doesnt stop praising Sony :D
he keeps on teeling that XZ is d best
140. HDShatter (Posts: 1021; Member since: 17 Jan 2013)
The Z is currently the best phone. I would say the runner up is the Droid DNA then Galaxy note 2 takes 3rd.
186. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
coz its d latest :D
when it comes to hardware, thats a fact coz XZ used whats latest.. but camera, with that 13mp, dey must learn how to optimize their lens well.. i wouldnt say PA is right that s3 and note2 are better in camera..
when it comes to features, note2 is still no1 and only galaxy s4 and note3 can beat it unless the upcoming Sony's 6incher w/ stylus can render us more exciting capabilities.. In screen, for oversaturated and more vivid colors w/ wow factor, SuperAmoled will rock but whites arent perfect (hoping a perfect display for the s4 and note3), so if u want brighter display with good whites and good contrast then HTC's display or LG is the top choices whc are better than Bravia...
XZ will somewhat steal d show w/ water and dustproof , elegant design(but not ergonomic, battery nonremovable) and their playstation compatibility(still can use playstation w/o XZ)
161. iushnt (Posts: 1709; Member since: 06 Feb 2013)
Dude, not lumia please.. Have you personally checked it? Don't be biased but ip5 and galaxy's camera are far better than lumias. Dark shots are not that great either on lumia compared to ip5..I dunno why people say lumia has good camera.. It's just a fake hype..

I've had this folio for years...pretty sure it is an Ambi...and always appreciated the styling and the great feel in the hand that it provided. I was doing a lot of consulting and used it daily. A few years back I stopped seeing clients and put the folio on the shelf.Last year I picked up a MacBook Air 13" laptop and spent a month or so looking for a nice case to carry it in. I'm traveling these days and the Air goes everywhere with me. I wanted a case that was stylish, functional, and different than what everyone else carried. I couldn't find anything that I liked!One day I was pulling a reference off my shelf, and there was the Ambi. Would the MacBook fit? It does, perfectly. I did take the zipper pull off of the inside compartment so that it wouldn't scratch the laptop, and of course the paper pad came out, too. There's room for an iPad in the inside compartment as well as a handful of papers to work on, and the small loops on the sides hold a stylus and a pen.I think that people are often surprised when I open up this thin, elegant folio and out pops a laptop! I'm thrilled to be using the folio again.

Best Folio Ever
By Andy
from Syracuse, NY
This is by far one of the best folios I have ever used. It only gets better with age. It is large enough to carry just about everything I need, and I don't have to worry about things falling out because of the heavy duty zipper. Unlike other designs the pen holders are out of the way. The pocket is large enough to slip a tablet in. I can usually carry 2 notebooks, pens and other office supplies without the zipper busting at the seems. I hope Levenger keeps this product around.
Stylish & excellent quality - 2nd one went to my daughter
By Tina
from Oregon
I use the Ambi Folio at work daily. I purchased the purple for me and a black one as a graduation present for my daughter. The photos on-line do not do this product justice. The contrast stitching is stunning and the size makes it easy to place in my tote, which I also purchased from Levenger. I have a place for business cards, my iPad mini, note cards and a writing pad. A great value!
Looks great, hold my iPad, good price
By Iowa Scrivener
from Des Moines
I have several bomber jacket leather products, but I am especially happy with this folio. I wanted something to hold my iPad aAir 2 and a keyboard. There is plenty of room for iPad and keyboard, as well as index cards, stickers and other things that I need to have with me. The letter-sized ruled tablet is very nice, and there are places for pens, if you wish. The tablet can be turned upside down, for those who are left-handed. Looks great, holds all that I need, good price, what's not to like?
Excellent Portfolio
By Critical next Step
from Minneapolis, MN
I wanted something sharp and colorful to stand out in the sea of portfolios. It is well constructed. The zipper works smoothly. I find the slots well-stitched and easy to slide cards and papers in and out.It fits well in my briefcase and looks professional.

I ordered 2 of these as 2016 Christmas gifts for friends and must say that I wish I had bought one for myself. They feel incredibly soft and supple. The quality looks excellent and I like the fact that my left-handed friend will be able to use hers comfortably.

This folio makes the perfect gift. It's high quality and rich in touch. It marries old school writing on paper with new school tablet computer. Plenty of pockets for business cards, etc. Love the zippered compartment for safekeeping.

The folio is a perfect combination of yesterday and today. Holds my iPad and has compartments for writing, notes, cards, pens and whatever too. As with all of my Levenger purchases, the design and construction were first rate. Bravo!

Teachers and administrators in the Hamburg Central School District will get back to negotiating on Monday in hopes of coming up with a teacher evaluation plan in time for this week's state deadline.
Hamburg teachers overwhelmingly rejected an evaluation plan last week, raising concerns that the district will lose out on about $450,000 in state aid if a plan is not in place by Thursday.
Union officials told The Buffalo News on Friday that a big reason the plan was rejected by a 217-82 vote was over the process for appealing a teacher's evaluation ratings.
That was news to Hamburg Superintendent Steven A. Achramovitch.
"That was never part of their discussion," Achramovitch said Saturday. "The first time I heard that was a union issue was when I read the article in the newspaper."
The superintendent also took exception to comments from union leaders that administrators were unwilling to meet earlier in the school year to hammer out the details of an evaluation.
The district and teachers union had a tentative agreement on an evaluation plan last June, but a vote was never pursued by the teachers because it was the end of the school year, the superintendent said.
Administrators continued to press for a conclusion from the union, which eventually came back in December with a significantly revised plan, Achramovitch said. The two sides reached a second tentative agreement, he said.
However, Achramovitch said, there were still some issues raised by the teachers union, forcing further changes and yet another tentative agreement reached only last week.
The superintendent said the major issues raised by the union had to do with the preferred ratings-system model used for the evaluations, the superintendent said.
"In each of those cases, I basically accepted what the teachers were proposing," Achramovitch said.
The president of the teachers union did not return a call Saturday seeking comment.
But a union official told The News on Friday that a major sticking point for Hamburg teachers is language in the proposal put forth by a 12-member district committee that would have given Achramovitch the final say on any teacher appeals of their ratings.
The agreement called for an appeals panel, consisting of two teachers and two administrators, to review those appeals. In case of a tie vote, Achramovitch would serve as the tie-breaker, which the membership of the teachers association found to untenable.
"I talked to the union president today, and he was reviewing why the plan was voted down," Achramovitch said Saturday. "We will hopefully be meeting on Monday morning, and we're going to review the appeals process and come to another tentative agreement – hopefully."
School districts across the state must have an approved evaluation plan in place by Thursday or they will lose their share of this fiscal year's increase in state aid, which in Hamburg's case is about $450,000.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas — The San Antonio Rampage (12-19-0-3) fell to the Oklahoma City Barons (12-17-1-5) tonight in front of a crowd of 6,618 at the AT&T Center by a score of 5-2.
Ryan Whitney netted his third of the year to tie the game at one in the first, getting assists from Bobby Butler and Vince Trocheck. Wade Megan found the net for his second of the year, tipping in a Matt Gilroy shot from the half boards in the third to bring the Rampage within one. Jacob Markstrom stopped 31-of-35 in the loss.
After struggling with the power play as of late, the Rampage made good on a 5-on-3 opportunity midway through the opening frame. Cycling down low, Butler fed Trocheck who in turn fed Whitney from down low, and the defenseman one-timed it from the bottom of the right circle to give the Rampage the 1-0 lead.
Whitney's power play tally was his third of the year, and came at 10:15 of the first period.
The Barons responded 4:04 later on their own 5-on-3. Markstrom made the initial stop on a CJ Stretch shot, but Roman Horak was waiting at the backdoor for the rebound, and ripped it into the open net to tie the game up with 5:41 remaining.
A late Rampage penalty gave Oklahoma City 45 seconds of power play time to begin the second, and Derek Nesbitt found the net just 35 seconds into the middle frame to break the tie and give his team the 2-1 lead.
The Silver and Black killed off another penalty, but Taylor Fedun widened the gap to 3-1 at the 8:07 mark for the Barons' third power-play goal of the night.
Megan pulled the Rampage within one five and a half minutes into the third, capitalizing on a Gilroy shot from the boards, but the tally proved to be fruitless, as the Barons piled on two more to finish out the third.
Markstrom stopped the initial shot from Taylor Fedun, but CJ Stretch quickly banged home the rebound to make it 4-2, and Matt Ford sealed the deal with 32.5 seconds remaining in regulation to ice it, 5-2.
The Rampage went 1-for-4 on the power play, and gave up three extra man goals to the Barons, as they went 3-for-7. Oklahoma City outshot the Rampage, 36-35.

At ASPCA Parents, our goal is to help families raise the next generation of animal lovers. So when we heard about the Benedetto family, who spent Christmas assisting in the aftermath of a massive tri-state dog fighting ring, we couldn't wait to share their story. We tracked down this inspiring family to find out just what motivated them to spend their holidays with the ASPCA.
Elizabeth and Juan Carlos Benedetto live in Seattle, Washington with their two children, Gabriel and Tatiana. Elizabeth and Juan run two adult living facilities, and both kids are in medical school. Despite their busy lives, they've always made it a priority to do good, and to do it together. When they heard about an opportunity to help dog fighting victims, they all agreed to head to our temporary shelter right away.
"We have a love of animals deep in our heart," says Elizabeth. "It's really important for us to help out animals in need, but also to stick together as a family."
The Benedettos are trained in Search & Rescue. In the last year alone, they deployed four times through WASART (Washington State Animal Response Team) to rescue dogs and horses. Though she says she hasn't had a real vacation in more than 20 years, Elizabeth considers this time with her family to be the greatest reward of all.
"We want to show the kids how important it is to be a part of the need that's out there and to be a part of the community," she says. "If your kids are old enough to do these things, they should do them. The more you expose your kids to good, the better our world will be."
We couldn't agree more.

Sophia Grace Brownlee is taking her next step in total world domination – the 10-year-old Ellen DeGeneres Show favorite has scored her first acting role.
The pint-size British singer, rapper, interviewer and YouTube star is joining an A-list cast in the big-screen adaptation of the hit Broadway musical Into the Woods.
"It's official, @PrincessSGB (Sophia grace brownlee) has landed the part of little red riding hood," her proud uncle, Lucas Brownlee, Tweeted on Tuesday.
The live-action Disney movie musical is set for release in December 2014 and is being directed by Chicago's Rob Marshall.
Others in the cast are no slouches, either. Meryl Streep stars as the Witch, Johnny Depp as the Wolf, Emily Blunt as the Baker's Wife, Anna Kendrick as Cinderella, Christine Baranski as Cinderella's Stepmother and Chris Pine as Cinderella's Prince.
There's no comment yet from Sophia Grace's cousin (and Ellen costar), Rosie Grace McClelland, but she is known for being a girl of very few words.

2004-2004 Toyota Camry EGR Valve Temperature Sensor for V6 3.3L for V6 3.3L1AZMX00028-390103
This part replaces:
- Standard Motor Products ETS59
- New
This replacement EGR Valve Gas Temperature Sensor is just what you need to get your Toyota & Lexus in good running condition again!
This sensor is located in the EGR passage, near the TBI unit, and measures the temperature of the exhaust gases. When the EGR valve opens, the temperature increases. From this increase in temperature. the ECM knows the EGR valve is open and that exhaust gases are flowing. When this sensor is cold, the resistance of the sensor is high, and the voltage signal is high. As the sensor warms up from the exhaust gas, the resistance drops and the voltage signal decreases. From the voltage signal, the ECM can determine the temperature.
A bad or malfunctioning EGR Valve temperature sensor will often cause a service engine light error code, and rough running due to inaccurate ignition and fuel timing.
This EGR Valve Temperature Sensor features the following specifications:
- Mounts in EGR passage
- Replaces dealer part numbers: 89412-33050, 8941233050
- Built to strict quality control standards
- Direct replacement
- 100% factory tested
- Fits only V6 Models as listed:
- A good sensor should have the following resistance readings:
- At 50°C (122°F) 64 - 97 kOhms
- At 100°C (212°F) 11 - 16 kOhms
- At 150°C (302°F) 2 - 4 kOhms
Your Engine size can usually be found on a white sticker in the engine compartment near the radiator.

Abstract Number:
J Clin Oncol 31, 2013 (suppl; abstr 8539)
Saad Zafar Usmani, Sarah Waheed, Frits Van Rhee, Alan Mitchell, Alejandro Restrepo, Monica Grazziutti, John Crowley, Bart Barlogie; Myeloma Institute for Research and Therapy, Little Rock, AR; Cancer Research and Biostatistics, Seattle, WA
Background: HRMM has not benefited from advances achieved in the remainder 85% with low-risk MM. In order to guard against relapses during previous drug-free intervals in TT3, TT5 was designed as a dose-dense and less dose-intense program. Here we are reporting for the first time on the TT5 outcomes in comparison with TT3a/b results in HRMM.
Methods: TT5 called for M-VTD-PACE induction with HPC collection. This was followed by tandem autologous stem cell transplants (ASCT) with hybrid regimens Mel80 plus VRD-PACE, sandwiched in between were 2 inter-transplant cycles of MEL20-VTD-PACE. Maintenance consisted of 3 years of alternating VRD and VMD (M, melphalan). As relapses were observed during maintenance, bortezomib was increased from 1.3mg/m2 to 1.5mg/m2 weekly. Results were compared with HRMM treated with TT3a/b (n=40/37). Data were compared with TT3 HRMM, involving 77 patients. Overall survival and progression free survival was analyzed employing Kaplan-Meier curves. Cox regression modeling was done for univariate and multivariate analyses.
Results: Of 59 patients enrolled in TT5, CR was 66% including 10% with s-CR. The 18-mo OS was 92% v 74% with TT3 (p=0.009), whereas PFS was similar at 67% and 69%, respectively. A newly developed GEP-5 model distinguished 8 patients with a 36-mo OS estimate of 20% versus almost 90% for the remainder (p=0.04). On multivariate analysis that included TT5 and TT3, our GEP80 low-risk score, TT5 (vs TT3) and age <65yr were independent features linked to superior OS.
Conclusions: This isthe first report of a dose-dense chemotherapeutic approach for newly diagnosed HRMM, which also introduced a hybrid Mel80-VRDPACE hybrid preparative regimen for ASCT. TT5 represents an advance in the management of GEP70-defined HRMM compared to predecessor trials TT3a/b for similar patients, with significant improvement in overall survival and tolerability compared with TT3 a/b.

School board looks toward special election
May 8, 2013
(EDITOR'S NOTE: Today the Williamsport Sun-Gazette continues its look at the key contests for municipal, township and school board nominations in the May 21 primary election....
Who is David Hines?
3 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
POOR LEADERSHIP IS THE PROBLEM! Get rid of Rich Emery! Why is it that all of the districts former Superintendents lived in the area and paid JS taxes... except this one? Why does this idiot get special treatment?
3 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Anyone on that board (who cares about what these candidates think) who doesn't vote to close a school needs to go! Kelly Wasson knows the bottom line, she has attended enough school closure hearings to know the facts. As for Bethany Shrodo, no consolidation means tax hikes and that doesn't work for retired folks on fixed incomes.
Let's recap the budget options from last weeks Sun with this article: 1-raise taxes 5%, 2-raise taxes 2.7% and cut educational programs, or close a school and no tax increase. After reviewing past meetings, it is apparent the candidates are not in favor of option 3. Fresh, new and "emotional" are not what the taxpayers can afford.
4 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
"Special Election", redistricting, and "personal agenda's", before a major decision made by the school board sounds like T.R.O.U.B.L.E. for taxpayers. It is difficult to keep hearing about why closing a school is so detrimental to parents in the Nippenose Valley and why these "key PLAYERS" aren't thinking about the entire community who are paying for an unnecessary facility. I am from Region 3 and Harry Brungard needs more time to decifer which school needs closed? If the "five-year haul" has proven not enough time to choose, goodbye birdy. People wonder why no one can afford to live around here (FOR SALE signs everywhere), I can tell you why. Part of the problem has to do with making good choices and following through with them in a timely fashion.
4 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Every childs education in the district is the "whole picture" and it obviously can be accomplished at an affordable cost to the taxpayers! If a school has been put on the block for closing and the district complies with the law to do so...get your emmotions/personal agendas out of the game and move forward! (five years is plenty of time to get with the program) President Helm states that "It's not personal" closing a school, but, NOT MINE...right Mr. Brungard, Loren Koch, and Kelley Wasson? (this is the hold up along with the Steinbacher and Stahl duo) See this is where voting for people you don't know about becomes tricky....Who is Mr. Hines?

And we lost in the first round. In five games. To the Predators.
Big picture. We're trending downwards.
When we were #1 Jimmeh and Pav were playing absolutely lights out. They both got injured, they both came back, and neither was anywhere near close to their pre-injury form. Before they got injured we were playing like genuine contenders. After they came back we were the team that lost in 5.
Thats not to say I disagree with your assessment that we're generally trending downwards - we've lost so many good players in such a short space that we can't not. But last year could have been so much more.
Rooting for one's team to lose says more about the fan than the team.
Aw c'mon, you telling me that when the Lions were 0-15, you weren't rooting for Green Bay in that final game?

CHARLESTON - West Virginia Attorney General-elect Patrick Morrisey said he immediately will call for a full-scale audit of the expenses of the state attorney general's office after he is sworn in Jan. 14.
Morrisey addressed reporters and supporters on the steps of the state Capitol on Thursday - less than two days after defeating five-term incumbent Darrell McGraw in Tuesday's general election. The 44-year-old Eastern Panhandle lawyer Morrisey is West Virginia's first Republican attorney general since 1933.
Morrisey on Thursday outlined his 17-point plan for reforming the office in his first 100 days as attorney general.
"I wanted everyone to know we started our transition team at 8 a.m. Wednesday and have already made progress," Morrisey said.
His team already has met with representatives of the current attorney general's staff, the West Virginia Secretary of State's Office and the West Virginia Ethics Commission, he said. They also spoke with the office of Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin, and Morrisey plans to meet with Tomblin sometime in the next week, noting he will seek to establish relationships with the state's Democrat leaders.
"I'm going to try," he said. "Anyone who wants to put West Virginia first, we will work with. Our focus is on jobs and creating business opportunities in the state."
Morrisey wants a say in how the state operates Medicaid and plans to play a role in whether it follows the recently upheld federal health care law. Morrisey previously practiced health care law with a Washington, D.C., firm, and was an aide and lawyer for GOP members of Congress and committees. A foe of the federal health care overhaul, he made it and President Barack Obama - who received less than 36 percent of the West Virginia vote Tuesday - major targets of his campaign.
"I'm going to work hard to try to ensure that those bad parts of Obamacare don't go into effect," Morrisey said.
Concerning Medicaid, Morrisey said he plans to share his health care background with the governor. Rising health care costs have increased the program's burden on the annual state budget. Tomblin is also weighing whether to expand its coverage, as called for by the federal health care law but ruled non-mandatory by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Morrisey said the office audit will review office staff, spending and resources. And it will start after he officially takes the post.
"I can't do it before, because I don't have access to the information," he said. "Once complete, we can start to reprioritize resources to the areas that need it most."
Morrisey said he wants to maintain the state's consumer protection efforts established under McGraw and make sure they continue to have appropriate funding.
He thanked McGraw for his service in the area of consumer protection and for "the good things he has done for the state."
Morrisey said he will eliminate the use of "self-promoting trinkets" bearing the attorney general's name and prohibit the the use of broad-based office advertising for at least six months prior to an election.
He also wants to collaborate with the Legislature to enact ethics reforms. Morrisey said while he can enact ethical reform as attorney general, it takes a move by state lawmakers to make them permanent.
"For example, while a Patrick Morrisey attorney general administration can unilaterally return money to the Legislature and the taxpayers, it would be best if the Legislature establishes such a policy permanently through a statutory change," Morrisey said.
Morrisey hopes to take on the federal EPA after reviewing all existing lawsuits pending by attorneys general. After this, he said, he will meet with state leaders to determine which suits the state should join against the federal government.
And he faulted the state for not joining a lawsuit against one regulatory rule, meant to reduce downwind pollution from power plants, and said it hasn't done enough to fight for permits needed by one of West Virginia's largest mountaintop removal mines.
In his office, he plans to create an "Office of Federalism and Freedom" specializing in federal and constitutional law.
Morrisey also wants the office to take a more active role in prosecuting election fraud. He believes the attorney general - given its broad enforcement powers - can play a role in pursuing election fraud and public corruption than can the secretary of state's office, and this authority "should be invested in the state's chief legal officer." The change would require an act by the Legislature, he continued.
"I would like to work with the secretary of state's office to better clarify prosecutorial authority," Morrisey said. "I want them to know they have an ally to help them prosecute election fraud."

Learn and move on.
That's the approach Buffalo Bills rookie Shawn Powell is adopting as he tries to rebound from poor pressure-situation punts each of the past two games.
"It's a learning experience every week, and I'm working to get better at certain things that I'm asked to do," Powell said. "I don't look at the past. Just keep going forward to each new week. I'm trying to be a consistent asset to this team."
The Bills knew some growing pains were in store when they handed the punting job to Powell in Week Four and released 12-year veteran Brian Moorman.
The 6-foot-4, 240-pound Powell has done a good job of keeping the ball out of the hands of opposing return men.
However, he hit a punt of just 30 yards with 50 seconds left in the fourth quarter against Arizona. It set up the Cardinals at their 47 and put them in position of needing only a short drive before trying a 38-yard field goal, which the Bills blocked to force overtime. With 5:33 left in the last game, against Tennessee, Powell hooked a 22-yard punt out of bounds to give the Titans possession on the Bills' 46. The defense bailed him out, holding the Titans on downs.
"It gets to me just because I know I'm better than that," Powell said. "But I don't make excuses about it. ... I'm kind of glad I'm having a rough patch right now so I can learn how to get past it and stay focused and learn how to handle these situations."
Up until the last boot in Arizona, Powell did a good job of directional kicking in an effort to keep the ball away from the Cards' star return man, Patrick Peterson.
"The whole plan was to keep the ball away from him because he's very dangerous," Powell said. "I took too hard an angle to the sideline. If I wouldn't have taken that hard of an angle, it may have went 35 to 40. I am more upset about the kick the last game, just because that one shouldn't have happened."
Powell's net average of 38.0 yards on 20 punts is 23rd in the NFL. Moorman, punting for Dallas, currently stands 27th in net average. Only seven of Powell's 20 punts have been returned, a rate (35 percent) that compares favorably with those of the leading punters in net average, who are mostly above the 40 percent rate.
"He's had more ups than downs," coach Chan Gailey said. "There's been some things that he'd like to have over and I'd like to have over for him. But on the whole, he's done a pretty good job. In a couple of critical games, he did a nice job, especially keeping the ball away from (Arizona's) Patrick Peterson. Except for the one. But he did a great job there."
If Powell can have a good day in Houston on Sunday, the Bills could have a distinct advantage on special teams. Buffalo ranks first in the NFL in both punt return average and kickoff return average. Houston is last in the NFL on both kickoff returns and kickoff coverage (based on average drive start after kickoffs).

An organizer of the proposed Clarence Hollow Fest said he believes the three-day event could be staged in Main Street Town Park this summer without the town incurring additional expenses, while drawing more attention to Clarence Hollow.
The Clarence Hollow Association plans to host the event July 4 to 6, with amusement rides, live music and participation by local restaurants and other businesses.
Paul J. Cambria Jr., an attorney who is part of the association, said a ride operator, local businesses and bands are enthusiastic about participating. He outlined plans to the Town Board at its work session Wednesday, describing how organizers plan to cover their own costs and tasks, including garbage cleanup, on their own.
"I think obviously we need to have the blessing of [the Town Board] so we can then get to some concrete agreement," Cambria said.
Board members asked Cambria to come back with specifics for areas they had questions about. They sounded generally receptive to the event, but some raised concerns about parking, the impact on athletic fields and park accessibility during the Fourth of July holiday for people not attending the festival.
"I can see people trying to park all over the place," Councilman Peter DiCostanzo said.
Cambria addressed some points that have come up since plans for Hollow Fest surfaced, such as whether the event would compete with Day in the Park, scheduled for the same location a few days in advance.
"Day in the Park is before us, so I don't see how we're going to have a problem," he said. "We're not going to conflict with them."
Another prominent event, the Taste of Clarence, falls later on the summer calendar.
The Hollow Association sees the three-day event as a way to increase the hamlet's visibility. Cambria said Williamsville's Old Home Days is successful at drawing teenage visitors, a younger demographic that he said is good to capture for the town's future.
"That's an important target group for anybody that's trying to attract vibrance, if you will, within the community," he said.
Hollow Fest would rely on support from service organizations and volunteer fire companies, while also covering its own costs for security personnel, Cambria said. A locally based ride operator, Hammerl Amusements, is ready to participate, he added.
Cambria said any proceeds the Clarence Hollow Association generates from Hollow Fest would be directed toward its efforts to improve the hamlet, such as decorative snowflakes that are being added to Main Street.
"What we're interested in is involving the community," he said. "No one is making any money off this."
• In other business, the Town Board agreed to pay about $17,400 to AmeriMerc of Wichita, Kan., for a slide that will be installed at the Main Street Town Park pool. The agreement hinges on AmeriMerc's terms of delivery for the slide.

Awful Reporting
From this morning's Tribune and Steve Rosenbloom...
If you're rating the last 10 games for each team, the Sox get more style points than the Cubs. Sure, the Cubs went 8-2 while the Sox went 7-3, but the Sox did that on the West Coast, while the Cubs were at home.
Sure, the Cubs played better, won more games, faced teams with a higher combined winning percentage (.488 to .455) and outscored their opponents by a wider margin (+27 to +13), but the White Sox did it while they were sleeping with their road groupies and the Cubs players got to sleep in their own beds. That makes all the difference in the world...because this is the NBA all of a sudden.
The Sox also did it against the one good team that either team
played, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim of Orange County of
California of the United States of the Northern Hemisphere of Earth,
Haha, see what Steve did there? He took a joke that's three years old and recycled it.
coming back in the last two games to get a split.
Wow, the White Sox split a four-game series on the road versus a good team that just got back its best starter for that series and is still missing Kelvim Escobar, Howie Kendrick and Chone Figgins. That's incredible work there by the White Sox. I mean they managed to play .500 baseball versus a depleted team. Print up the playoff tickets for winning 5 of 6 against two teams with winning percentages at or below .400.
To be fair, The Cubs did play against some lightweights in the last series, the just-below .500 Pirates, the woeful Padres and the Diamondbacks, who just happen to have the best record in baseball.
Now, you can tell me that the Cubs' first opponent on this
homestand, Arizona, is a first-place team, and I'll tell you that the
Diamondbacks play like a last-place team. Like the last-place Padres,
the Cubs' second opponent, for instance. Specifically, the D-Backs play
like slugs outside of the NL Worst.
Haha, NL Worst? Get it? That's a little word play there by Rosenbloom because the Diamondbacks and Padres play in the NL West. See what he did there? And that's why Rosenbloom gets paid the big newpapers dollars.
It's also one of the reasons the newspaper business is crumbling...terrible writing and poor research.
The Diamonbacks have played the second softest schedule in the majors, but Rosenbloom didn't want to seem to bother researching that the White Sox have played a pretty soft schedules themselves. Specifically, the 6th easiest in the majors. BUT THEY MANAGED A SPLIT versus the Angels. Great work, "Hawk" Harrelson is appalled by that level of homerism.
Here's the deal: Against NL Central and NL East teams, Arizona and
San Diego each have won a measly six games. San Diego beats up its own
division, but nobody out west can win outside of its own sandbox.
Except the Dodgers who are 10-10 versus the rest of the NL. And the Diamonbacks were still a respectable 6-7 versus the rest of the NL before the Cubs series. And what about the +52 run differential the Snakes are sporting, 2nd best to the Cubs? But they've beat the crap out of the crappy teams in their division, clearly they're an inferior team.
I guess Rosebloom's article basically boils down to whether a four-game
road split versus the Angels is more impressive than a three-game home sweep
versus the Diamondbacks. And of course it's not. The Diamondbacks are ahead of the Angels in ESPN's RPI Index and way ahead of them in BP's adjusted standings (look for the W3 and L3 numbers). The Angels are just a +6 in run differential compared to the Snakes at +52. The Angels have been fighting injuries all season, while the Diamonbacks were just missing Doug Davis and I guess Chad Tracy, if he even counts.
And would this be a good time to mention the AL Central that Rosenbloom's beloved White Sox are riding on top of? Wait, that's not nearly as clever as NL Worst, and I'd really like a newspaper writing job one of these days. Let's see what I can come up with here...AL Entrail. See, it rhymes with Central and it's considered disgusting. Damn, that's awesome...AL Entrail it is. I can't wait to write for the Trib.
Re: Awful Reporting
Don't forget that the Pirates, who are just below .500, would be well over .500 if the didn't have to play the Cubs.
And nice write up, Rob.
Re: Awful Reporting
There is a reason Rosenbloom gets less and less space in the paper.
To be fair...7-3 is a pretty impressive road trip, and the Cubs did miss Webb when the D-Backs came to town.
But, like many (but not all) Sox fans, Rosey would rather tweak Cub fans than talk about the Sox.
Reminds me of Game 2 in the Sox-Astros World Series -- I got to go with work tickets (hey, it's the World Series...)-- the Sox had just won on a walk-off HR by Podsednik, and, on the El ride home, some guy yells "HEY! I wonder what the CUBS are doing right now!" Raucous laughter all around. So - probably the greatest Sox moment in their lifetimes, and Sox fans were still thinking about the Cubs. Sheesh.
Re: Awful Reporting
The Cubs have more fans and the Sox fans dwell on it. I think Ozzie tries to pull more people into the Sox orbit by pointing to their success. Too bad for the Sox that he comes off as Ozzie.
The Cubs became Chicago's team in the 60's with WGN and winning seasons. The Sox have done nothing to change that.
Tonight's game
Hey, anyone got a lineup? It's the only 6pm game mlb.com doesn't have lineups for yet--does ESPN have some deal with MLB that MLB can't post lineups until ESPN does so that ESPN gets more people watching the beginning of the game? That's the only (hare-brained) reason I can think of.
Re: Awful Reporting
I don't get the supposed pro-Cubs bias in the Chicago media. If anything, there is a pro-White Sox bias. Just about every columnist in Chicago (Mariotti, Couch, Morrissey, and Mike Imrem in the Daily Herald) wrote a don't-get-too-excited-about-the-Cubs column in the last couple of days. I'm sick of reading columnists say you can't get too excited about this Cubs team because the 1975 Cubs team started 14-6 and finished 75-87. What does 1975 have to do with today?
The media treats Zambrano like they let a mass murderer loose every fifth day. The media treatment of the Edmonds-Zambrano relationship was beyond overblown, as if whether they get along or not will have anything to do with the Cubs winning.
Rosenbloom just destroyed Soriano after he got hurt, insisting the "hop" was the reason why. (For cryin' out loud, if I didn't know any better, he hurt his bleepin' calf while doing cartwheels out there.) The media treats Soriano as the guy who is going to make or break the Cubs.
The media is obsessed with three players: Soriano, Zambrano and Wood.
Ozzie Guillen can rip the Cubs in the media, and people talk about how goofy and "real" he is. If Lou made some comments about how he doesn't like the White Sox, the Chicago media would never forget it.
Re: Awful Reporting
Throughout the 1950's and the 60's up until 1967, Chicago was a White Sox town. I know, because my dad and his family were Sox fans, and my mother and her side of the family were Cubs fans.
1967 was the watershed year, because that's when the "Durocher Cubs" became perennial contenders (for a while), and when the White Sox had their last contending season for a few years. Also, by 1963 the White Sox had developed into a team that won with pitching & defense and very little offense, but it got ridiculous in 1966-67.
And then when the Sox blew the pennant the last weekend of the 1967 season by losing their last five games in a row to the lowly Kansas City A's and Washington Senators. That really helped to kill the White Sox with Chicago baseball fans. And with the exception of some of the Harry Caray Years in the 1970's (and the "Southside Hit Men" in 1977), the Sox really never got it back.
But the big thing was that the kids (like me) who went to Wrigley Field on countless summer weekday afternoons and watched the last couple of innings of Cubs games on WGN-TV Channel 9 after getting home from school in the 50's and 60's grew up and reconnected with their Cubness in the 1980's and 1990's. It was like a Russian agent sent to the U. S. as a teenager who becomes a military or political leader as an adult but retains his allegiance to the homeland.
The White Sox never had that, because in the 1950's and 1960's they only televised Saturday and Sunday afternoon home games, and an occasional road game on a Friday or a Saturday night. Once the Sox left WGN-TV for Channel 32 (and later Channel 44) in the late 60's, the Cubs had Channel 9 all to themselves, and when WGN became a SuperStation in the 1970's, it gave the Cubs tremendous national exposure that the Sox could not get on their local UHF station. And the Wrigleyville neighborhood was (is) a more fan-friendly environment than the neighborhood(such as it is) around the Cell.
And then when Harry Caray switched sides in 1982, well, the destiny of the Sox as Chicago's second-class MLB citizens was sealed.
It looks to be a indefinite permanent situation.
Re: Awful Reporting
Should I mention Rosey being a sportstalk radio guy...oh, I must have forgotten, didn't he get canned from both WSCR (with chat champ, Dave Baum) and ESPN-1000 (with Sean Salisbury) as a talk host for being BORING?
He seems to be recycled on the radio from time to time, just like his "cynical" humor attempts in the print media...and his marginal expertise in Texas Hold'em, just a fascinating topic on the radio (zzzzzzzzzzz)

Soler likely to return Sunday, Maddon says
Right now, I'd like to see the Mets first, Giants 2nd.
I believe that since most of the team from last years' NLCS is on the squad this year, they will really amp their game up even more to kick their ass in payback for 2015.
The Giants just do not have the depth in years past, and I think all things equal - and at Wrigley - they could handle them.
I do not want to see the Cards, period. Or their fans, media, or Joe Buck.
I don't want to play Braves in the first round. Any friggin team in the league can win 3 of 5..I hate the first round. Furthermore, I wanted to play the Marlins in 2003 and the Mets over Dodgers last year.
With that said in reverse order:
3. Cardinals: It will be devastating to lose in the first round, but even worse to their main rival. It is increased incentive for the Cardinals, especially after last year. Cards would have nothing to lose, Cubs have everything to lose.
2. Giants: Rotation in the playoffs scare me a bit, but what a lousy team.
1. Mets--because of the losses in the rotation
2. Giants--because they're not the team they were BUT they maybe have bullshit even-year magic?
3. Cardinals--because rivalry and not making the playoffs hurts them more than losing in the NLDS plus getting eliminated by them in the playoffs would make for horrible sports commentary next throughout next season.
Who's asking?
CLE/DET rained out last night already, possible rain-outs in New York (vs. Baltimore), Boston(vs. Toronto) and Philly(vs. Mets) this weekend too.
Not only games involving playoff spots that would need to be played, but any that involve home field advantage.
I got the first one! Second one I'm not even sure what even/odd betting is.
any opponent preference for NLDS?
Mets are down to 1 great pitcher instead of 4. Syndegaard may pitch Sunday which means if Mets win the WC game, he'd be set up for Game 1. There's a chance they clinch a spot by Sunday so he'd pitch the WC and then we'd probably get Colon for Game 1. They've certainly had the hottest bats over the last week and month out of the WC options.
A couple of Cub related puzzles.
Can't teach height and thinness
Hopefully Pirates don't call up A. Lincoln.
j.buchanan going friday...should be...baseball...or something like it.
Wow. I didn't know they could do that.
Nice for Willson, not so much for Addy.
Game is officially called...also officially a tie.
Stats count, no make-up date of course.
Yeah -- seeing the weather -- I hope KB and Rizz are inside, wrapped in blankets and drinking hot chocolate.

Contemplating artworks in an exhibition entirely alone and undisturbed, without the distraction of other visitors? An unusual and at the same time provocative notion, for exhibitions are in most cases bound up with a certain hustle and bustle and the visitors' co-existence and indeed "co-experience". In Berlin's Kunst-Werke, curator Susanne Pfeffer has created a setting that, in its form, compels the visitor to enter into a director encounter with and personal examination of the works on display. The exhibition is entitled "One On One" and lays down clear rules on how the works should be experienced. Only one visitor is allowed in each of the white boxes at any one time, in which it seems the works are more enshrined than presented. With just the artwork and the beholder in a (mostly) confined space, their surroundings seem to fade away. Is the beholder caught up in a private moment with the work? Perhaps cornered would be a more fitting description, for simply stepping into the box leads them to at least question the patterns of behavior and perception they have learned and adopted. The boxes create a visual boundary, though the acoustics do maintain a connection to the overall exhibition space. So here we have an exciting exhibition experiment, which in addition to enabling an examination of the works exhibited also serves to promote discussion on the exhibition setting itself – and thus by association raises the topic of public and private settings.
So, up for discussion is the question of what is public and what is private, of where to draw boundaries and of how they influence our perception and beyond. Does the private realm (still) exist and is a demarcation from the public realm a realistic undertaking? It was such questions that Susanne Pfeffer, the show's curator, Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Artistic Director of documenta13, and Canadian artist Jeremy Shaw discussed at the "Dornbracht Conversations" under the heading "Private Intimacy".
Museums and exhibition spaces are where the public and private realms collide, established moderator Charlotte Klonk. Since the 1970s and the rise of women's lib (at the very latest) the guiding principle has been: "The private is public" – and most certainly political too, a point emphasized by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev. As a result, art spaces are also to be seen as places of political opportunity.
There is broad consensus up on the podium: The boundary between what is public and what is private has been removed, the private realm has been capitalized – that much is irrefutable. But to what effect? By reading an email from Lebanese artist Rabin Mroué from the documenta13 "logbook", a collection of documents including her written correspondence with artists and authors, Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev was unable to sharpen the focus of the discussion. Is an email that is circulated among the public in such a way (as part of a book and for example read to an audience) still private? Was it ever even perceived as private in the first place, because the relationship between the sender and receiver, between artist and curator, is not private, but public from the very outset?
Privacy is clearly "a defined social category", asserted Charlotte Klonk, drawing the discussion back to statements made by sociologist and philosopher Jürgen Habermas. And Christov-Bakargiev posed the "big question": "What is the self?"
At the very beginning of the discussion someone raised the point that in light of the new "social media" the separation of private and public is rather tending toward protected privacy, for at least in this context private is interpreted in the sense of intimate. Thus this was a verbose stocktaking of different terms, which however were not really capable of sounding out their connections to one another.

The Count 2012
Every year VIDA Women in Literary Arts conducts a survey to count female author representation in major literary periodicals. This survey isn't about quality or good reviews, but just about the representation, number of reviews or general press coverage that women authors are getting. The results can be viewed through a wide variety of lenses, but the graphs are admittedly a little shocking.
It would be interesting to know how the publishing numbers break down, but a quick peek at the New York Times Best Sellers hardcover list of the top 16 titles shows an exact 50/50 female to male representation. Which to me (unsing completely unscientific methods) shows that books written by women are just as popular or being read in the same numbers as books written by men.
So does it matter then that literary periodicals aren't showing the love for female authors? Maybe, maybe not. But books by Zadie Smith, Lauren Groff, and Michelle Moran may have been hanging out on my to-read list for a little bit too long.

Elene so close to Osmond , they setting for a Katelyn if she hold it together she will win
Well, Tuk and her team said was still only 80% after the recovery from her injury and growth related problems, and she looked it. Can't see her making the final, but I suspect they will now be simply using her 2 grand prix events to get competition ready for Euro's and Worlds, by which time she should be fully ready.
Kanako MURAKAMI (JPN)
Music: Prayer for Taylor
Light green one-shouldered dress
... (feed froze)
what did she land?
Kanako is not usually one of my faves but that program was fantastic. Her costume is beautiful too which never hurts.
Kanako is having a great skate except the slightly two footed 3F. It impresses me how ambitious these Japanese skaters are, designing their choreography to milk maximum points, with the bonus for doing jumps passed mid-point. It also makes the program more original when they aren't front-loaded with jumps. I think we are looking at the new leader in the SP now.
Double axel, well done (this was in reply to sequinsgalore)
Who's that woman beside Kanako in the kiss-and-cry? Is she no longer being coached by Yamada?
The Russian commentator said that jumps in the second hapf are worth extra...
SP: 56.21 and into 4th
Interesting that the commentary in the arena is a description of the programs - even pointing out that Murakami 2 footed her flip.
surprised by her score. I thought it would have been higher.
Shocking score for Kanako, I have to admit, the Tech panel probably saw something I didn't see. Will wait for the protocol, they look shocked too in the K&C.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Large-scale information on the biochemical makeup of small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules is now available for free to all researchers as the result of a collaboration between the NIH National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and Life Technologies.
Until now, a major limitation in the scientific community's use of RNAi data has been the lack of a publicly available dataset, along with siRNA sequences directed against every human gene. Historically, providers have not allowed publishing of proprietary siRNA sequence information. To address this problem, NCATS and Life Technologies are providing all researchers with access to siRNA data from Life Technologies' Silencer Select siRNA library, which includes 65,000 siRNA sequences targeting more than 20,000 human genes. Simultaneously, NCATS is releasing complementary data on the effects of each siRNA molecule on biological functions. All of this information is available to the public free-of-charge through NIH's public database PubChem.
"Producing and releasing these data demonstrate NCATS' commitment to speeding the translational process for all diseases," said NCATS Director Christopher P. Austin, M.D. "The Human Genome Project showed that public data release is critical to scientific progress. Similarly, I believe that making RNAi data publicly available will revolutionize the study of biology and medicine."
Experts from the NIH RNAi initiative, administered by NCATS' Division of Pre-Clinical Innovation, conduct screens for NIH investigators. They will add new RNAi data into PubChem on an ongoing basis, making the database a growing resource for gene function studies.
"By releasing all our siRNA sequences, we are enabling novel strategies to advance fundamental understanding of biology and discovery of new potential drug targets," said Mark Stevenson, president and COO of Life Technologies.
NIH invites other companies that sell siRNA libraries and researchers who conduct genome-wide RNAi screens with the Life Technologies library to deposit sequence data and biological activity information into PubChem.

The Altoona Lady Lions opened the year 2013 in the same manner that they closed the year 2012 - successfully.
After capturing the championship in their own Altoona Area Holiday Basketball Tournament last weekend, the Lady Lions started the new year off with a flourish Wednesday night, busting out to a 21-4 first-quarter lead over Central Mountain en route to a 67-39 victory at the Altoona Area High School Fieldhouse.
Altoona raced out to a 12-0 lead in the opening four minutes while improving its season record to 5-3.

Altoona's Shania Feathers goes up for two points against Central Mountain defender Kara Heckman.
"We changed up defenses, did a good job rebounding, and ran the fast break,'' Altoona coach Jill Helsel said of her team's early run. "We limited them to one shot, and we got out and finished.''
Lady Lions junior guard Lauren Donley led all scorers by hitting five 3-pointers in the game for 15 points. Junior forward Shania Feathers came off the bench to score 13 for Altoona, while junior forward Darby Lee added 11, and senior guard Kaycie Reffner scored 10.
It's the type of balanced scoring attack that Helsel is getting accustomed to seeing from her team.
"We've had many kids step up,'' Helsel said. "They're performing their roles well and doing what is being asked of them. We're getting better with each game.''
Altoona mixed its inside and outside games well to take control early Wednesday. Junior point guard McKenzie Hatch's lay-in opened the scoring, and Lee's short turnaround shot made it 4-0. Donley converted her first 3-pointer, from the left side, to put Altoona ahead, 7-0, before senior forward Kayla Grimme scored a field goal from the low post and Reffner hit a 3-ball from the left side to complete Altoona's early 12-0 spurt.
"Our inside and outside games are complementary,'' Helsel said. "If [an opposing defense] doubles down on us inside, we can kick the ball out.''
And when the ball went outside Wednesday, Donley was firing up deadeye jumpers from beyond the arc.
"She's our shooter,'' Helsel said. "That's her role on the team - to shoot and play defense. She's really coming into her role.''
Donley feels like she's getting in a groove from 3-point range.
"The 3-point shot is my most comfortable shot,'' she said.
Central Mountain (2-6) showed character after falling behind early. The Lady Wildcats held serve in the second and third quarters, a span over which Altoona held a slim 27-22 advantage.
"I felt like my girls gave a good effort,'' Central Mountain coach Lyndsey Rogers said. "Altoona played some good solid pressure defense against us, and forced a lot of turnovers (15). But my team never gave up.''
The 21-4 deficit after one quarter was too large to overcome, though.
"When a team jumps out like that, it can either catch you off-guard, or you can respond,'' Rogers said. "I think both happened with us. We responded, but by the time we did, they had a nice lead on us.''
Junior forward Sarah Jensen led Central Mountain with 12 points. She also grabbed eight rebounds.
Altoona led, 35-16 at intermission, and 48-26 after three quarters. Central Mountain could get no closer than to within 14 points, 50-36, on junior guard Shelbe Walker's 3-point shot midway through the fourth quarter.
"I knew that we would have to play hard from the first tip on, and I think we did that as a team,'' Donley said.
