Boom! There were some mighty big guns on the set of Scott Eastwood's new movie – and not just the ones on tanks.
Clint Eastwood's 27-year-old son, who created quite a splash after recently posing for a smoldering photo shoot in Town & Country, has posted a shirtless Instagram photo from the set of his movie Fury.
"Trying to out flex the tank. Not workin'," the actor captioned the snapshot.
Eastwood began filming the movie, which costars Brad Pitt and Shia LaBeouf, earlier this month in London and will also appear in the upcoming surfer flick The Perfect Wave.
"People assumed that I would have everything handed to me, but that couldn't be further from the truth," he told Town & Country. "I was on my own just doing the grind."
And, clearly, hitting the gym.

A town fit for all! Lenzburg lies at 405-meter altitude, is populated by around 8,800 inhabitants, and extends over a total 1,132-hectare area, 600 of which are woods. The small town with medieval Old Town of national importance is discovered at the heart of the Lenzburg castle region; home to the Lenzburg, Hallwyl, Wildegg, Brunegg and Habsburg castles.
The characteristic Old Town is an attractive place to linger – and the proud Castle Lenzburg, one of Switzerland's most famous castles. Atop a hill, today the castle is home to a museum and a great place to learn some history; with the aid of additional regional museums that live to tell the story of this interesting town and region. In particular, the "Esterliturm" tower in the Lenzburg Castle offers extensive views over Lenzburg as far the Black Forest and central Switzerland.
Visitors during the winter months experience a quieter town, at a time when the castle doors are closed. Although, as Christmas draws closer, diverse events such as the traditional Chlauschlöpfe and Christmas market add festive colour and warmth - together with diverse tasteful restaurants that tempt you to a delicious bite to eat.
- Schloss Lenzburg: Castle of knights and dragons, which well-earns its place as one of Switzerland's most famous castles. The interactive museum is open from April to October, boasting beautiful views and lovely gardens.
- Old Town: Characterful and petite Old Town, founded in the twelve century
Top Events
- Lenzburg Youth's Festival: Best day of the year for Lenzburg - on a day annually celebrated on the second Friday in the month of July.
- Lenzburgiade: Music Festival in the Schloss Lenzburg premises; uniting classic and folk music (around Pentecost).
- Gaukler Festival: Fun weekend during which the streets and alleyways are taken over by street artists and comedy stars (August).
- Musical Encounters (August/September)

Well now the bridge is closed. Took our first inconvenient trip up to "A" and back down. Wasn't too bad but hard to believe that will be the case for a whole year.
I had read or heard somewhere that a very large percentage of bridges are decaying all over the state. Something about them all being built around the same time and now they will be replacing them in order of neccessity.
What happens when they need to replace the bridge in Minocqua? That is the ONLY bridge to get north of Minocqua. How will you get to Woodruff and cities up that way then? Talk about an inconvenient detour, that would be a major detour. I guess it won't be that bad dealing with ours in comparison.

How To Get A Free FICO Credit Score
|Email Print
Your FICO credit score is increasingly becoming one of the most important numbers in your life. I've written about what's in your FICO credit score as well as how to get FICO credit score estimates, but never how to get the actual three-digit FICO score calculated by one of the bureaus.
While the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act (FACTA) and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) did wonders to shed light on the credit reporting industry and the data they are collecting on all of us, the light wasn't bright enough. There is no way for you to get a free FICO credit score unless you sign up for a trial with one of the bureaus or with Fair Isaac Corporation directly.
Free FICO Credit Scores
There's no true way to get a free FICO credit score, the bureaus aren't in the business of giving that information away, but they will give you your score if you sign up for one of their credit related services. Fortunately, they offer trials so you can sign up for a program, see your score, then cancel the trial. If you just want your credit report, see the instructions below.
- MyFICO ScoreWatch – MyFICO ScoreWatch has a thirty day (30) trial period where you can get a free Equifax credit report and Equifax credit score. If you don't cancel within the first thirty days, you will be billed $89.95 annually and you get access to a credit monitoring program that's fairly robust. You can read my MyFICO ScoreWatch review if you're interested in learning more. MyFICO is owned by Fair Isaac Corporation, the creator of the FICO credit score system.
- Equifax Credit Watch Gold with 3-in-1 Monitoring – The list wouldn't be complete if I didn't include a service offered by Equifax. You sign up for a thirty day (30) trial and you get a free FICO credit score from Equifax as well as a 3-in-1 consolidated credit report from all three bureaus. If you don't cancel within the 30 day period, the monthly fee is $14.95.
Free Credit Report
If you just want your credit report, you can get a copy from each of the bureaus from AnnualCreditReport.com, the website setup by the government. FACTA, passed signed into law in 2003, required that bureaus provide you a copy of your credit report each year upon request. FACTA wasn't perfect but it did make improvements on FCRA.
It's more important for you to check your credit report regularly than it is to check your score. Your score will be determined based on each bureau's proprietary equation but the data they use, your report, is the critical piece of the puzzle. Reviewing your report regularly is the best way to ensure that whatever score you have is accurate. Millions of reports have errors and chances are good that you have one if you haven't checked your report lately.
Reviewing your report is also important because you can spot identity theft fairly easily because you'll see accounts or addresses that you don't recognize. I reviewed my report a few years ago and discovered an address I didn't recognize (along with a phone account). It took a few weeks but I had the matter cleared up. It didn't affect my score but it's important to keep your report as accurate as possible.
You will not be able to get your actual FICO credit score through the government website, you will need to use one of the options above.

There is a popular adage that religion and politics don't mix. But state leaders of three major religious denominations clearly decided to test that theory at a recent meeting with U. S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-WV. They told Sen. Manchin they want the president and Congress to avoid a so-called "fiscal cliff" on Jan. 1 many believe could plunge this nation into another recession.
This "People Before Politics" conference at the Blessed John XII Pastoral Center just outside the city of Charleston prompted pleas for Manchin and his colleagues in Congress to consider the impact of this national financial stalemate on the "middle and lower-income people" in West Virginia.
None of the other four members of Congress from West Virginia seem to be as interested in dialogue with their concerned constituents on this major controversy. Bishop Michael J. Bransfield, leader of the state's Catholic Diocese, reminded Manchin that "you have always been protective of West Virginia. We are counting on you."
Bishop Sandra Steiner Ball, who leads the state Conference of the United Methodist Church, circulated a statement at the meeting that predicted this so-called "fiscal cliff" will bring tax increases and spending cuts that could make West Virginia's poor residents even poorer. She said potential spending cuts will cut back on services to large numbers of adults and children in this state that already are having trouble making ends meet.
Bishop Ralph Dunkin of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's West Virginia-Western Maryland Synod also was present for this meeting on Dec. 3.
To his credit, Manchin apologized for "the dysfunction that goes on in Washington." He said the leaders in both houses of Congress are "not leading." And when he asked for a show of hands from those in the room about the idea to disqualify senior citizens who now make 250 percent of the federal poverty level from cost-of-living adjustments in their Social Security adjustments, a few of the people in the room raised their hands.
"Everywhere I go, I find that's acceptable," Manchin said.
Social Security benefits are especially important to West Virginia residents because of the advanced age of many residents here. For more than half of this state's retired residents, their main source of income is a monthly Social Security check. Statistics released by the White House suggest about 600,000 households in West Virginia would pay higher taxes if certain current tax exemptions are allowed to expire Jan. 2.
Manchin has also made it clear that he does not support proposals in Congress to raise the retirement age for full Social Security benefits from 67 to 69. He said the only way he could vote for that move would be if there was a waiver "for the type of work you have done."
While Manchin doesn't believe Congress will allow the United States to go over the "fiscal cliff" at the start of 2013, he told this group not to expect a clean fight but instead "a bloody mess over the next few weeks."
After a 2010 report criticized the way the state's Division of Highways challenged all vehicle damage cases made against it, the DOH streamlined its process and legislative auditors reported to lawmakers recently that agency is now doing a better job of paying those claims, reducing the backlog of cases on the state Court of Claims docket.
In recent years, nearly three of every four claims filed against the state involves damage to vehicles on state-owned roads and most of them were for $2,500 or less.
The average amount claimed in these cases was $475 but auditors found that the average cost for the state to completely adjudicate one claim was $1,339."
At one point in 2008-09, auditors found that the Court of Claims had 840 cases for amounts of less than $2,500 awaiting a small claims court hearing. This backlog resulted in lengthy court delays because DOH routinely denied every claim, forcing an automatic hearing.
The auditors' conclusion was that the practice of denying every claim saved the DOH money, it ultimately increased the cost to state government and "placed an undue burden on the public," the report concluded. And total claims paid in 2011 did hit $8.4 million compared to $3.8 million the previous year when the system was undergoing the revised system.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin has so far managed to adroitly straddle the fence in the ongoing dispute between two senior lawyers in the state's Department of Health and Human Resources who have been paid at the annual rate of $96,000 a year and $83,000 a year.
But now that the two senior attorneys for the agency have been ordered back to work-at some tasks that are not what they were doing when they were placed on leave and not allowed to work in the DHHR offices at the Capitol back in July-it may be difficult for the governor to remain neutral in this fracas much longer. After all, he was the one who hired DHHR Acting Secretary Rocco Fucillo who has been trying to keep this dispute under wraps.

on December 1, 2012 - 11:40 PM
A taut, passionate concert is taking place this weekend at Kleinhans Music Hall. It's a kind of grab bag, but it holds your attention.
Guest conductor Sarah Ioannides begins the program with Mendelssohn's Overture to "A Midsummer Night's Dream," then continues with Haydn's Cello Concerto No. 1 in C, with the exciting cellist Zuill Bailey as soloist. By now many might be thinking: Mendelssohn, Haydn, taut and passionate? But it's true.
Mendelssohn and Haydn are sort of in the same boat in that they are perceived as masterly but not as hot-blooded as their contemporaries. In the right hands, though, this music can smolder. Saturday's concert proved that.
Bailey, a handsome devil in his early 40s, loves this Haydn concerto. He exploits it, and I mean that in the best sense, in that he digs into it and revels in what it has to offer.
He is playing an unusual instrument, a deep-voiced, oversized cello that once belonged to Mischa Schneider of the Budapest String Quartet, which was based for years in Buffalo. It was thrilling to hear the cello growling authoritatively right from the first bars of the concerto. This instrument was built when Johann Sebastian Bach was 8. By the time Haydn came along, it was already an antique.
So you had this feeling that you were hearing the ages. On the other hand, Bailey's approach was reckless and alive. Smiling at the audience, catching the eye of various orchestra musicians, he gave the impression of chafing at convention. His playing was imaginative. When a phrase repeated, it never sounded exactly the same. Heck, it never sounded anywhere near the same.
The music had volume and grit. The orchestra musicians, too, seemed to be alert and enjoying themselves. This concerto is a group effort. In the Adagio, the phrases were romantically finessed. It's not like Mozart or Brahms – the melodies alone are not enough to tear your heart out – but Bailey and the BPO presented the music with an irresistible passion.
The real payoff came in the last movement. Bailey, irrepressible, joined the BPO cellos for the opening tutti. What followed was a kind of perpetual motion, everyone going full tilt. Bailey's brisk ascending lines cut like a knife. He and the orchestra strings played catch in breathless, whispery interludes. For a few fascinating moments, everyone's fingers were flashing, but otherwise no one seemed to be moving, not even the conductor. The music seemed to be powering itself.
Everyone in the audience, even those who had slept through the Adagio, were awake and on the edge of their seats. The performance got a standing ovation. I cannot imagine this music being as exciting in anyone else's hands. In the afterlife, Haydn owes all these people a beer.
The Mendelssohn that opened the concert also received more than its usual share of passion. Ioannides and the orchestra brought an explosive excitement to the sudden fortes. The murmuring strings had a crisp nervous energy – kind of like that Haydn finale, come to think of it.
The second half of the program is a mad mix: Schubert's valedictory "Unfinished" Symphony followed by the wild Polovtsian Dances from Borodin's opera "Prince Igor."
It required a lot of switching gears. To listen to the Schubert puts you in a different place, beyond time and space. But the first movement has its own nervousness. Ioannides took a good, spacious approach to the music, and the woodwinds and brass gave it richness and depth. The cellos, maybe inspired by the Haydn, did a beautiful job announcing the famous bittersweet theme. The slow movement was slow and sighing, with lovely Schubertian nostalgia.
I am not sure it was right to follow the "Unfinished" with the raucous Borodin dances. But as long as they were there, I was going to enjoy them. This kind of flash and dash is home turf for the BPO. The music started out kind of weak – you had to wait for the mist of the Schubert to dissipate – but once it hit its stride, it was a bacchanalian riot. It's fun to hear this sabre-rattling music live, the jangling percussion, the romantic cellos, the swirling melodies we all know inside out.
The concert repeats today at 2:30 p.m.

Hmm....well in my account online, it shows $45 a month charge for the premiums, and then I get a credit for the $45....I'm assuming the credit will drop off and the premiums will remain....luckily I am in town until 11/24 so if they are still on on the 23rd I should be ok
This is correct...the $45 credit will stop, the $45 charge will continue.

The 7 Hardest People to Shop For: A Holiday Gift Guide
We here at Cracked want to help, or more accurately, to pretend to help while we make cheap jokes at your expense. To do this, we've enlisted the aid of thousands of spies to track our readership and identify the most problematic people they'll have to shop for this holiday season. Then, using the personal shopping abilities granted to us by a powerful alien ring, we compiled the following Gift Guide.
#7. Gifts For Someone You Don't Like Very Much
Most folks try to avoid people they don't like very much, but around the holiday season that can prove difficult, especially if one of them is your kid. Should you find yourself in the circumstance of having to buy a present for some prick, here's a list of gifts any prick will be sure to hate.
Non-Alcoholic Whiskey
To the uninitiated, whiskey possesses a flavor best described as "angry fire." It is generally agreed to be an acquired taste, and if it weren't for its great redeeming attribute -- lots of sweet, nourishing alcohol -- few people would even bother acquiring the taste at all.
And here is the drink for those few people. Arkay Non-Alcoholic Whiskey Flavored Beverage is a mockery of nature and human accomplishment, a war-crime against common sense, the single beverage guaranteed to please no one.
Its very existence is a testament that when left unrestrained, science can produce monsters.
A Boobytrap
This gift is less for someone you don't like very much, and more for someone you think would be better off with less hands. That might sound extreme, unless you were raised by a television and don't really understand consequences, in which case it sounds fine, and you're also angry at us for using long words like "consequences."
Just be careful. Maybe get it wrapped at the store.
Classic treachery-themed presents include:
- A stocking with a mousetrap in it.
- A stocking with a bunch of feral mice in it.
- A Pringles can that contains a snake and few Pringles.
- A wooden horse full of soldiers.
- A huge basket of acid.
Anything Touched by Your Dick
If you don't like to mix your gift-giving with jail time, consider this low-key approach: purchase a gift and put your genitals on it. Any gift at all can work for this, so long as it can be purchased in a container that's easy to reseal.
Obviously though, some objects are better than others.
#6. Gifts For Someone You Like Way More Than Is Appropriate
Whether she's a crush who doesn't know you exist, or a really attractive aunt, you've got a certain special someone in your life. Regardless of whether she (or society) wants her to be that special someone in your life, a gift is in order. And you need something to make a statement; something that when unwrapped will make her gasp, and stop all conversation in the room, and really, all conversation for miles.
Something Way Too Expensive
There is a certain natural relationship between the expense of a gift and how close you are with the giftee. Someone whom you don't know very well would typically expect a token gift, something which implies more thought was given than money, and not much of either. You don't want to do that. You want to fly way past that, like two-months salary past it, blowing the fucking doors off standard gift-giving conventions.
In that case, try this diamond tennis bracelet:
The 36 diamonds says, "I just spent seven thousand dollars on you," and the tennis bracelet says, "I am so dangerously out of touch with reality that I don't know that no one wears tennis bracelets. Isn't that quirky and fun? Who wants to go for a car ride? In my van?"
Nothing too sexy obviously, because you don't want to come off as creepy. Maybe pajamas or, if you're feeling bold, really small pajamas.
"I got you the golden lasso to go with it, but I got it ... dirty ... before I could wrap it."
A Teddy Bear With a Webcam In It
Not a big webcam obviously, because you don't want to come off as creepy. These things are often marketed as "nanny-cams" and are intended for parents to surreptitiously monitor their childcare workers, but no one really checks that when you're buying them.
"It even comes with a clear dome-shaped playhouse that we can mount on the ceiling!"
#5. Gifts For A Single Person
This is likely to be a pretty common shopping chore for many of you, if only because of the later age at which we're all marrying these days, and the fact that Cracked readers and their friends are so clammy and unlovable.
Alcoholic Whiskey
"I don't need your fucking rules, wall!" your friend will scream, attempting to show a wall who the boss of their apartment is, an interaction indebted to the magic of alcoholic whiskey. Reveling in the successful roughing in of a new door, your friend will forget all about his relationship troubles, as per the instructions on the accompanying card: "To Help You Forget Your Relationship Troubles."
The preferred brand of alcoholic whiskey is Old Grand-Dad Whiskey, due to its distinct "alcoholy" nose and body.
A whiskey for those who are single, or who soon will be.
This cuts right to the heart of the matter, or perhaps the hairy patches a little to the sides of the heart of the matter. It's a fact that stinky people don't get dates, unless they work in a town with a pulp mill (and even then, the dates are pretty grim). The deodorant we're specifically recommending is Aspray, because of its promise to combat "beastly butt odor."
Implying that a dear friend has bum smell problems in front of their friends and family is an unkind blow, but it might also provide you some cover, assuming that this collection of people agree with you. "That's why we switched to the real Christmas tree when you turned 15, son," his mom says, nodding sadly and standing behind you in support. "For the fresh pine scent. It's also, probably, why the dog ran away."
Something With A Hole In It
Getting someone an inflatable sheep is pretty tasteless, the kind of thing an idiot would do for his friend's bachelor party. But getting something stylish and discrete with a hole in it, that shows that you put a bit of thought into your gift. And also a squishy aftermarket orifice into your gift. We're not going to Google squishy aftermarket orifice, but you go ahead and see what that gets you. Instead, here's a picture of a classy and sturdy lectern you could install said orifice in.
"Yeah. Uggggh. Oh ... Yeah ..... Oh. Oh. OH! ORATION!"
#4. Gifts For A Father Embarrassed By You
It's become harder for the youth of today to get ahead in the world. Back when our parents roamed the earth, it may have been possible to get a good job with a high school education, but today? Even a bachelor's degree is no guarantee you're getting a job where you get to sit down.
Also, we have Xboxes now, and those take some time.
In any event, you now have a dad who lies to his friends when they ask him how you're doing. Here's what to get him for Christmas.
A Job
In The Secret Of My Success, Michael J. Fox parlays his position working in the mailroom of some kind of business-company into a wheeling-dealing executive role. He does this by showing up in a suit and sitting down in an empty office. He walks the walk and talks the talk -- that's all it takes.
He also forgoes the use of elevators, traveling everywhere by champagne.
You probably have a job of some sort, even if it's volunteer Xbox Live tester, so you're going to try this for yourself.
- Go down to the thrift store;
- Get a suit;
- Put on the suit;
- Bullshit your way into a better job;
- Panic when someone looks at you funny;
- Spend the rest of the day hiding in the washroom;
- In your panicked confusion, take a picture of yourself in the washroom to prove to your dad that you got a good job;
- Give that picture to dad;
- Hold back your tears when he stares at you and ask if you're doing "Weird bathroom porn" now;
- Mumble something about dental benefits.
Home Emancipation Kit
For 15 dollars and a few hours of fun and Christmas afternoon paperwork, your dad can finally, legally disown you.
A sturdy handshake, a Ziploc bag full of leftovers and the sound of a deadbolt turning as you crunch down the driveway -- that's what Christmas means to you now.
Something You Made Out of Wood
This is the gift to try if you're still pretending you can win back dad's approval. All fathers have an innate appreciation for wooden things, and if you claim that you made it yourself, you're sure to win many style points. "Claim" is the key word here, because obviously with all that Skyrim to play, you're not going to have time to actually make something.
Get something simple, something you could plausibly make yourself. Find the crappiest thing you can find on Etsy. Or maybe one of these wooden spanking paddles -- something which will cause dad to recall happier times when he could still beat the stupid out of you.
A third option is to just make another one of these ...

Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
No longer just science fiction, fully integrated molecular diagnostic devices are being developed to take raw sample loaded at the intake port, process it through the device, and deliver an answer at the other end. A number of companies have made significant progress toward this goal, and it seems, based on presentations at Knowledge Foundation's recent sample-prep meeting, that hand-held devices will be a reality in the very near future, allowing scientists to take a real world sample, process it, and produce an accurate identification in real time.
A droplet-based digital microfluidics technology is at the heart of the solution from Advanced Liquid Logic. Michael Pollack, Ph.D., and Vamsee Pamula, Ph.D., are co-founders of the company that, to date, has commercialized two products based on this core technology, one for genomic sample preparation and a second for newborn screening.
The microfluidic device enables precise and programmable manipulation of droplets using an array of electrodes that obviate the need for traditional pumps, valves, and fixed channels, according to Dr. Pollack. The electrode array is fabricated on a printed circuit board with 1 mm2 electrodes. Droplets are processed within an oil-filled chamber formed by an injection-molded plastic top piece. Sample and reagents are loaded via dedicated ports.
Volumes ranging from less than a microliter to hundreds of microliters can be processed with individual droplets being joined together, split apart, moved to locations adjacent to a magnet, or to a thermal region for PCR, etc. All movements through the device are defined by SpotLogic software scripts.
"A couple of years ago we identified an opportunity to apply our technology to the problem of library preparation for next generation sequencing (NGS)," shared Dr. Pollack, CTO. "The flexibility of the technology was a key benefit because of the diversity of workflows that can be enabled and the ability to adapt as workflows evolve. We can essentially 'reprogram' the device to perform a wide range of protocols. Automation to improve reliability and consistency, and miniaturization to reduce reagent consumption are additional benefits."
The microfluidic device is a disposable cartridge about the size of a standard microtiter plate. The system is sold into the research market under the brand name Mondrian™ SP by NuGEN Technologies to perform fully automated NGS sample prep.
Advanced Liquid Logic has also commercialized the LSD-100, a newborn screening system for lysosomal storage disorders (LSD). This automated system enables processing of up to 40 dried blood spot extracts, along with controls and calibrators, for multiplex testing of an LSD panel.
IntegenX was formed around microfluidic-valve technology developed in the lab of Richard Mathies, Ph.D., at the University of California, Berkeley. The technology is aimed at simplifying sample preparation for life science applications, addressing the issue of volume and scale, and ultimately developing complete small footprint "sample-to-answer" solutions.
The IntegenX solution reportedly solves the problem of moving fluids at the macro to micro interface and mixing fluids in the microfluidic environment. The IntegenX solution is a chip made up of three layers: a fluid layer, a pneumatic layer, and a third layer that consists of a PDMS membrane, which is sandwiched between the two.
"The process works like an aquarium pump with a diaphragm valve. With three valves in a row you can move fluids in any direction with close to zero dead volume in the transfer," explained Dennis Harris, Ph.D., co-founder and CSO.
"For example, using these on-chip pumps, we can pump in 2 to 3 mL of fluid into a chamber holding a buccal swab, lyse the cellular material from the swab, and capture all the DNA on magnetic beads. The magnetic beads are moved through the chip by virtue of the valve technology. We're currently working on a human identification solution that can process a buccal swab and provide a CODIS profile in 90 minutes."
According to Dr. Harris, the criminal justice system is anxiously awaiting the RapidHIT™ solution, which will enable them to screen individuals in lockup to determine if the detainee's DNA is in the system or associated with open cases before they have to move them from holding cells.
IntergenX also has applied its technology for NGS sample preparation. Its Apollo 324 is not based on microfluidics, but rather uses the same chemistries implemented on a liquid-handling robot to provide library-prepped DNA for NGS. This product for genomic sample prep is targeted at sequencing centers in core labs with medium to low throughput.
The sample-prep solution from Claremont BioSolutions is said to be novel in that it is entirely disposable, fast, and it doesn't require an instrument. The solution is based on mechanical lysis of cells and simultaneous extraction of nucleic acids or proteins depending on the buffers used.
"The PureLyse® cartridge device contains a micromotor like the vibrator used in a cell phone, but in this case with a propeller. With the added beads, high shear forces are generated in the cartridge to enable rapid cell lysis. DNA is captured by binding to the lysis beads and then eluted to yield DNA within a four-minute protocol," reported Bruce Irvine, CTO. "The flow-through configuration of the PureLyse cartridge enables its use with a wide range of sample volumes, typically 1 mL, but as high as 2 to 5 mL samples have been processed."
The PureLyse system has been used to lyse and extract nucleic acids from microbial sources, including E. coli, Bacillus subtilis, Mycobacterium bovis, and Clostridium difficile. The latter was the focus of a NIH-funded SBIR project where the PureLyse cartridge was embedded in the OmniValve fluidic system.
The system has a valve with up to six ports connecting the lysis and extraction cartridge to other chambers. This set up facilitated integration of DNA extraction with sample, pre-filters, wash, elution, and amplification. This semi-integrated system enabled detection of C. difficile from human stool samples resulting in 100% specificity and 96% sensitivity as compared to EIA results, Irvine explained.

Ty Tessmann drives the HB D413 to the 2013 ROAR 1:10 Electric Off-Road Nationals!
At last weekend's ROAR 1:10 Electric Off-Road Nationals in Chico, California, Ty Tessmann and the all-new HB D413 wow'd the racing establishment once again by taking home the 2013 National Championship title!
This was only the first race for Ty and his D413, and with setup help from HB-HPI designer Torrance DeGuzman and mechanic work from father Gord, Ty rocked the field by setting a super-fast TQ pace throughout practice and qualifying. Only last year's 4WD National Champion and multiple World Champion Ryan Cavalieri could challenge Ty on the track, but Ty remained strong throughout the remainder of qualifying and started from pole position on the grid for the triple A Main.
In the A Mains, Ty made it look easy by stretching out a lead while Ryan chased him and the rest of the field held each other up. With 2 wins in the bag, Ty could sit back for the 3rd and final A Main, secure with another ROAR National Championship!
Many thanks to Neobuggy.net for the use of these pictures - read all about Ty's victorious week, complete with race videos, here!
And now some quick questions from the designer of the D413, Torrance Deguzman:
It must have been great to win the Nationals! How did
you and the Tessmanns celebrate after Ty won the title with the
At first there was some controversy as a protest was filed against us by another team. After all that drama settled and the protest was rejected, we realized we had completely forgotten to eat lunch. But by the time we realized that it was already late afternoon and it was time to pack up and go home. I had an 8hr drive ahead of me and the Tessmanns had 20+ hour drive so we just ate a quick meal at Ty's favourite fast food – Panda Express.
At this level, every car design needs something to have
an edge over the others - what are the D413's strengths over
other the 4WD buggies out there?
Its strength is its strength. The D413 is very durable compared to other existing 4WD cars which allows the driver to race at 100% without fear of breaking. This may seem like a minor advantage but psychologically for the driver it's huge. During the event we saw many broken 4WD parts. Or to put it in today's popular terminology, many drivers "sawed their car". The number of D413 parts replaced due to damage during the event… ZERO.
Designing a whole new car from the ground up must have
taken some time, how long was the design process for
Just for the design only it was pretty quick. I'd say 5-6 months? I started on this car in mid-2011 but paused mid way to work on the D812 and another car, then resumed the D413 after those other two were completed.
And how many prototypes have you and Ty worked
And finally…what do you think the chances are for
the Worlds?
I don't know. I don't do odds.

Court's Approval of this Motion Affects Request of Distribution of DFA Payments
A Motion setting the stage for Round 2 of payments in the Southeast Milk Litigation was filed on Tuesday, July 30, with the United States District Court in Greeneville, TN.
Dairy Farmer Plaintiff attorneys, Baker-Hostetler, submitted their request for the second distribution to class members of the Dean Foods Settlement Funds. That 22-page motion, accompanied by a 158-page Claims Administrator's Report, outlines several reasoned corrections to the original payouts in the first round of the Dean Settlement.
These corrections, which add 45 additional claimants and almost 676.3 billion pounds of milk to the 'class-eligible' category, had to be determined before other distributions, particularly the one-and-done $140 Million DFA Settlement distribution, could occur in the future.
The court filing is filled with details and descriptions of minute calculations that could mean differences of less than a hundred dollars to some, and more than several thousand dollars to others, of the now-expected 6,210 Class members.
Monetary differences will occur due to the adjustments in pounds claimed by individual class members and verified by the Claims Administrator. These 'claim-eligible' pounds create a pro-rata difference in a claimant's share of the Net Settlement monetary pool, based on their percentage amount of 'class-eligible' pounds, now at the 72.9 billion level.
Because of the volume of pounds which determine the Settlement pool, payment percentages to class members who received their first Dean/SMA distribution checks in January will be lessened only a very negligible amount.
Corrections were made for the following reasons:
1.) 2 claims forms were not processed at all in the original payment round, and the claimants could prove delivery of materials to Rust with certified mail receipts. Those claims forms were paid later by Rust, who will be reimbursed out of this distribution payment.
2.) 24 claimants had upward readjustments verified and added to their previously claimed class-eligible pounds.
3.) 12 claim forms, previously thought to be duplicates and excluded, have been reviewed and verified to indeed be eligible. One claimant had questioned this matter directly with the Court via a letter.
4.) 3 claims were adjusted due to confusion about submissions/withdrawals by the 'third-party' filers who solicited farmers after Settlements were announced.
5.) 32 'late' claimants who submitted claims after the first distribution, but who are otherwise eligible, may share in the second and future payments, but distribution will not be retroactive to amounts distributed in the first payment.
Numerous legal references applicable to each category of adding claimants are included in the Motion.
Denials of future payments may be ensured in two cases.
1.) 7 original claimants did not respond to audit requests by Rust by any deadline, and
2.) 5 SMA board members (no specific names mentioned), who submitted claims, even though they were expressly excluded by the Settlement Agreements entered with the Court, will be excluded. Alternate members to boards of all co-ops who settled are excluded as well. Two of the excluded alternate directors had filed letters directly with the Court, and their concerns were addressed with legal reasoning in the Motion.
There were 185 total pages of three complementary documents in this filing. The Claims Administrator's report contains extensive documentation of the efforts by Rust Consulting in this Settlement.
Provided the numbers do not change per any adjustments by the Court, the estimated Net Settlement Fund for purposes of the second Dean Foods settlement payment to Class Members is $12,067,357.08. Dean Foods paid $19,100,500.14 into an escrow account on June 25, 2013, retaining $900,000 of the $20 Million payment total until some unspecified opt-out Class member issues are resolved. In keeping with previous terms of the agreement, $6,666,666.66 cents will be paid to the plaintiff attorney firm, and over $285,000 to Rust Consulting for Administration fees and reimbursements of claims paid by them. $75,184.19 was allocated for 'make up" initial settlement payments to claimants.
Once 'class-eligible' pounds belonging to each legitimate claimant have been certified by the Court's approval of this Motion, then, and only then, can a Motion be submitted requesting distribution of the DFA payments, expected to be sizable for many Class members.
Judge Ronnie Greer continues to preside over matters of this litigation, and the Court retains jurisdiction until the last Dean Foods payment is made in 2016.
How soon can farmers expect either the Dean Foods or DFA Settlement Checks in their mailbox? Case history provides some insight. A month passed this past winter between the time the Motion to Distribute the first Dean/SMA payment was entered and checks were received, with 10 months of audits and verifications preceding the Motion's filing.
With no unexpected hitches, this Dean Foods payment may be received around or before the first week of September.
In the case of the DFA Settlement, six months have elapsed since the Settlement was announced. Allocations of Class-eligible milk will be determined by the Order approving this 2nd Dean Distribution Motion, so logic tells us that a motion requesting disbursement of the DFA funds may possibly be filed within a month-6 weeks.
However, this is a lengthy litigation that has seen many unexpected twists and turns. It stands to reason a Class member should plan on receiving the DFA check only when it appears in the mailbox.

Subtitle 03 COMMISSIONER OF FINANCIAL REGULATION
09.03.14 Money Transmitters
Authority: Financial Institutions Article, §12-403, Annotated Code of Maryland
Notice of Proposed Action
The Commissioner of Financial Regulation proposes to adopt new Regulation
.01 under a new chapter, COMAR 09.03.14 Money Transmitters.
Statement of Purpose
The purpose of this action is to set fees to be paid by a licensee or its authorized delegate engaged
in the business of money transmission to cover costs of examinations conducted by employees of the
Commissioner of Financial Regulation.
Comparison to Federal Standards
There is no corresponding federal standard to this proposed action.
Estimate of Economic Impact
I. Summary of Economic Impact. There is a small economic impact on a few Maryland licensees.
Maryland statutes already allow the Commissioner to examine money transmitter licensees. This regulation
allows the Commissioner to charge an examination fee of $300 a day for each examiner. We estimate that
examinations of in-State companies would take, on average, 5 days to complete at a cost of $1,500. We
estimate that out of state companies would average 7 days to complete at a cost of $2,100. Of the 91
current money transmitter licensees, there are 13 companies or 14 percent of licensees that are located
in Maryland. Nine of the 91 licensees or 10 percent that are located in Maryland will fall within the
definition of a small business. The Commissioner estimates that each company would be examined by the
state once every 4 years. Since the Commissioner is currently reimbursed by the licensee for travel,
meal, lodging and other related travel expenses, there is no new economic impact with regard to these expenses.
III. Assumptions. (Identified by Impact Letter and Number from Section II.)
A. Assuming in state exams would take 5 days to complete @ $300 per day. Assume out of state exams would take 7
days to complete @ $300 per day. Assume 20 out of state exams per year @$2,100 each and 3 in state exams per year @ $1,500 each.
D. The examination fee must be paid by the licensed company for work performed on site.
F. The examination process of money transmitter licensees will provide safer operating companies over the
long term by requiring companies to have accurate books and records and by following best practices.
Economic Impact on Small Businesses
The proposed action has minimal or no economic impact on small businesses.
Impact on Individuals with Disabilities
The proposed action has no impact on individuals with disabilities.
Opportunity for Public Comment
Comments may be sent to Joseph Rooney, Assistant Commissioner, Office of the Commissioner of Financial
Regulation, Suite 402, 500 N. Calvert Street, Baltimore MD 21202, or call 410-230-6214, or email to
email@example.com, or fax to 410-333-0475. Comments
will be accepted through February 27, 2013. A public hearing has not been scheduled.
.01 Examination Fees.
A. This chapter is intended to set fees to cover the reasonably incurred costs of examinations of a licensee
or its authorized delegate pursuant to Financial Institutions Article, §12-424(c), Annotated Code of Maryland.
B. The Commissioner of Financial Regulation sets the following daily fees for each of the Commissioners
employees engaged in the examination of a licensee or its authorized delegate:
(1) $300 per day for an employee serving in a position of Financial Regulation Non-Depository
Examiner in the Office of the Commissioner; and
(2) $375 per day for an employee serving in a position of Financial Regulation Non-Depository
Examiner Supervisor in the Office of the Commissioner.
C. A licensee or its authorized delegate shall reimburse each of the Commissioners employees engaged in
on-site examination for travel, meal, lodging, and other related travel expenses using the criteria and at the
rates set forth in the Standard State Travel Regulations.
D. The revenues collected from the fees set pursuant to these regulations shall be deposited in the
Money Transmission Fund pursuant to Financial Institutions Article, §12-404, Annotated Code of Maryland.

Williamsport leaders aren't alone in their struggle to find the right balance between having enough career firefighters and keeping taxes manageable.
"We're struggling with those kind of decisions down here," said Reading Fire Department Chief David W. Hollinger.
While the Berks County seat has a population of more than 85,000, compared to about 30,000 in the city, Hollinger cautioned about making drastic reductions.
"There's always the 800-pound gorilla in the room," he said.
The beast referred to is Hurricane Sandy and its track through Pennsylvania before Halloween, when all-available personnel needed to keep communities from coming to a standstill.
"Those decisions to lower manpower can lead to outcry if there is a tragedy," Hollinger said.
Meanwhile, Mayor Gabriel J. Campana has been saying the city can't sustain the costs of paying a staff of 33 and providing full medical insurance and pensions for not only the firefighters but also their spouses.
He'd like to see a voter referendum this spring asking city residents if they would accept a reduced department, supplemented by paid, on-call volunteers.
Reading's 134 career firefighters are supported by three to six volunteers, who are less relied upon when emergencies arise, Hollinger said.
"We depend mostly on our career firefighters," he said.
Over the past decade, Reading has experienced fewer structure fires, due in part to more smoke detectors, sprinklers, heat sensors, public and school education programs and better codes enforcement, Hollinger said.
"We're seeing way more medical-related calls," he said.
In Williamsport, fire calls diminished between 2009 and 2011, according to records provided by Deputy Fire Chief David Dymeck.
In both 2009 and 2010 city firefighters responded to 39 working structure fires, but in 2011 the firefighters responded to just 34 such fires.
Alpha Co., serving State College, a primarily all-volunteer fire department, also experienced fewer fires over the past couple of years, and more medical-related calls, but volunteers are needed and numbers are lower than in the past.
"I'd be lying if I didn't say I worry when there is a major structure fire," said Chief Steve Bair, fire director for the Centre Region Council of Governments and one of only two paid fire staff in the State College area.
Bair said there are an average of 1,000 calls per year, responded to by 110 members, some of whom are given incentives, such as annual stipends of $500 for their fuel cost and wear and tear on vehicles.
Campana envisions a stipend for each major volunteer response.
According to state Fire Commissioner Ed Mann, Campana's not alone in trying to find creative ways to solve a budget crisis.
"It's a sign of the times," Mann said, describing yet another trend.
"While we're seeing more third-class cities laying off employees and not replacing firefighters altogether. We're also seeing more departments that historically were all-volunteer starting to pay firefighters," Mann said.
More volunteer departments have started to offer incentives and hire personnel, which is the exact opposite plan eyed by Campana. That's because of the dwindling ranks of volunteers.
For example, during the years 2006 and 2007 there were 72,412 volunteers in Pennsylvania, Mann said. By 2012, the number of volunteer firefighters decreased to 68,698. "That's 4,569 fewer volunteers serving communities," he said.
At the same time, there was an increase in the number of volunteer departments that hired paid personnel.
For example, five years ago, 1,330 volunteer departments had paid firefighters working in their ranks. By this year, that number had increased to 1,559.
"It tells me those fire departments that were historically all-volunteer are trending toward having paid people in one form or another, while the number of volunteers joining ranks are decreasing," Mann said.
Third-class cities, however, such as Wilkes-Barre, are getting fewer career firefighters compared to five years ago.
"They're not replacing them," he said. "They cut them out altogether because of costs."
Also, the number of structure fires may be down across the state, but the rescue-related calls have increased, and Mann said he's not sure what is the root cause.
"I don't know if anyone can put their arms around why," he said. "I think we'd like to say a lot of it is our public education efforts for the fires, but I don't know why medical-related calls are higher."
Meanwhile, volunteer fire departments and companies that are struggling to recruit and retain members and cities cutting expenses to not have "taxes going through the roof" is a new normal, Mann said.
"Everywhere communities are trying to fund public safety through property taxes," Mann said.
Communities need to decide what they're willing to pay for, or more importantly, what level of services they can afford without impacting public safety, Mann said.
"Not too many firefighters who get paid to do their job are getting rich off the base salaries," Mann said. "But when factoring in the medical benefits, insurance and retirement, it gets expensive quickly."
William E. Nichols Jr., city finance director, said the cost is about $50,000 per firefighter, but the long-term legacy costs for all employees, including firefighters and police, who can retire at age 50 and receive for themselves and their spouses health care for the remainder of their lives, is $55 million.
That kind of benefit package is driving city managers, mayors, township supervisors and councils throughout the state to ask, 'How do I provide an appropriate level of fire protection and do so affordably?'" Mann said.
Whatever happens won't happen overnight, observed Councilman Jonathan Williamson, chairman of the city finance committee.
"The city has long-term budget concerns and has time to make the decision," Williamson said.
Meanwhile, the city and Old Lycoming Township Volunteer Fire Department continue with an alliance that provides the West End, the township and the rest of the city with quick response.
The alliance is an intergovernmental cooperation agreement signed on July 22, 1999, that requires the city to maintain a complement of 33. It sets up two city firefighters at Old Lycoming's station on Dewey Avenue.
Firefighters respond to any alarms in the city or township in the company's truck, known as Engine 14-1.
An agreement also exists between the city fire department and the Loyalsock Township Fire Department, according to township Chief Michael Minnier, but limited fire staffing has not allowed that agreement to be realized to its full potential.

Lego Batman Review
As a game adults can get something out of at the same time as younger gamers, it's perfect.
First it was Star Wars, then Indiana Jones. Now it's Batman, the caped crusader himself, who's been given the Traveller's Tales LEGO treatment. Great! Who doesn't like Batman these days, or the idea of running around a LEGO-fied Gotham City as a cute LEGO Batman, and LEGO Joker, and LEGO everyone else from the vast DC Universe? This can't possibly be anything other than awesomeness on an epic scale.
TT's LEGO titles have always scored well here on VideoGamer.com. From the very first LEGO Star Wars game, through to LEGO Indiana Jones, via LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy and LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, each title has provided innocent but fun cooperative (for LEGO Batman with the computer or a friend on the same console only - no online co-op) combat, platforming and puzzle solving fun for all the family.
And so, TT has clearly taken an 'if it 'aint broke then don't fix it' approach to the game's design. LEGO Batman follows the tried and trusted TT LEGO formula religiously. It's got tons of cute, LEGO-fied Batman universe characters to play as in 30+ levels, thousands of bits and bobs to collect and unlock and loads of easy as pie but cool to solve puzzles, just like all of the other LEGO games. If you've played the Star Wars LEGO games, or the Indiana Jones LEGO game, and enjoyed them, you're guaranteed to enjoy this. But this time there's a crucial difference.
One of the best things, perhaps even the best thing, about the LEGO games is watching the cut scenes. In previous games they've directly followed the story of the films they're licensed from, but with a LEGO twist. These cut scenes have been key to the series' charm, and appeal to more adult gamers who are first and foremost fans of Star Wars or Indiana Jones. There's something oddly compelling about watching the boulder scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark in bright LEGO-vision, or seeing a LEGO Darth Vader step off of his shuttle and onto the Death Star for the first time. That TT has added in its own family-friendly humour to these cut scenes only made them better.
Because LEGO Batman isn't based on a movie, or a series of movies (the recent Dark Knight films are obviously too, er, dark for a LEGO game) TT has had to conjure up its own story and cut scenes to fill in the gaps. Somewhat inevitably then, the effect is that we have less interest in the cut scenes, and less interest in the story overall - perhaps tellingly, the plot is a wafer thin affair where all the well-known criminals break out of Arkham Asylum and it's up to Batman and Robin to stop them from realising their dastardly plans.
TT has spoken of the benefits of being free from the shackles of a specific film license, but it appears the move has had a somewhat negative effect. We're not criticising TT directly for this - it seems like an inherent problem given the situation. But it's one worth noting.
