Here's how RW members rated this race (1008 votes).
In short: Fantastically organised race through quiet scenic countryside and great atmosphere in ChesterDate of review: April 12, 2016
In short: Best organised race you will ever enter!!!In full: Fourth time running Chester marathon. I've also ran in their half marathon and a large number of their free training runs. The friendliest organisers who know what runners want. The course is superb and actually runs right through the city it is based in ( unlike a number of other marathons that have a city name in their title !! ). The whole process is superb. And I mean everything !!! From signing up , to free training runs , to being kept up to date , to race day arrival , the start , the race itself and post race. It is simply perfect. You will not find a better organised race! Date of review: October 25, 2015
In short: And they're off!In full: An absolute joy from start to finish. The race village in the middle of Chester Racecourse was well-organised, with efficient baggage area (ie no queue), sufficient toilets (OK, there were queues, but not massively so) and the pre-race area was under cover (ideal in poor weather). I arrived an hour before the start, but I could easily have arrived about 30 minutes before the start and not be under pressure. The start had the usual pens according to predicted time - busier at the 'business end' and less busy towards the rear. I started with the 5 hour pacer group (the slowest paced group - cut off is 6 hours) and even that far back it only took about 3 minutes to cross the start line. And what a start - 3/4 of the way around the race track! Then into Chester (beautiful) with some good support, then it's onto the open, traffic-free country roads. The scenery is gentle countryside, and as small villages were passed, locals were out giving support. Water stations well manned, and toilets at each stop. The finish was back into Chester via the riverside, then it's back into the racecourse when you run the final quarter of the track. Lovely medal, a long-sleeved technical top (whilst unisex, the small wasn't as large as some finishers' tops). The goody bag had a selection of post-run nibbles (I ate them immediately so can't recall what they were!). The finish line went like clockwork - efficient bag collection, seats, cover if needed and plenty of runners enjoying the atmosphere. Easy access for the train (about 20 minutes walk) and there appeared to be ample car parking at the racecourse. Highly recommended.Date of review: October 14, 2015
In short: first marathon, fantastic organisation and great courseIn full: My first marathon, the organisation was fantastic. The route is a little flat (I like hills), but certainly a fast course through the Cheshire countryside. Very friendly and a fast finish along the river and onto the racecourse.Date of review: October 12, 2015
In short: Fantastically organised raceIn full: My first marathon and a great one to start with. The organisation was superb, plenty of marshals and supporters. Not as flat as I hoped but was warned about the hill at 23 miles. Thoroughly enjoyed the event, would recommend to any first timer. Date of review: October 9, 2015
In short: Not the fast flat race as advertisedDate of review: October 8, 2015
In short: The best non city based marathon I've yet run.In full: Okay it starts in a (small) city, but most of the Chester marathon is on rural roads - still no small feat to close the entire route to traffic which made for a worry free marathon. Superbly organised, couldn't pick a single fault with it. Ran my first 2:45 there so it's a quick course, although with plenty of undulations there are quicker marathons out there. Would highly recommend.Date of review: October 8, 2015
In short: Fantastic Race, Friendly Atmosphere, Hilly in the 2nd Half! (Evil hill at 24 miles)Date of review: October 8, 2015
In short: What a fabulous event - thanks to the org and the supporters In full: This was my first marathon and what a fab experience. I have been running half's for the last 10 yrs so was used to running in events like Chester. However I found that Chester was special - the start at the race course, the route through the countryside and then the finish back at the race course - fab. Finishing in 3h:51min was another great aspect of course...will come back next year!! Date of review: October 7, 2015
In short: Scenic course, superb organisation with attention to detail, great supportIn full: This was my third marathon (previously run Edinburgh - 2014, and London - 2015) and was definitely my favourite. The organisation was slick and everything ran like clockwork. I was particularly impressed with the enthusiasm and encouragement from the organisers on race day. The attention to detail was excellent.The course was beautiful - a mixture of historic city and scenic countryside, and was mainly flat, with a few hills towards the end. It was not over-crowded, so there was no weaving in and out, and it was possible to maintain a steady pace throughout. Although many sections of the course are rural (I personally love this), the support in the villages was good. Runners had their name on their race number, and it was very encouraging to hear your name being cheered on. Marshalling was excellent throughout, and there were plenty of drinks stations and toilets on the course.Definite PB potential: I ran this an hour quicker than Edinburgh, and half an hour quicker than London. I would definitely recommend this run.Date of review: October 7, 2015

Former La Plata County resident Frances Anna Tubbs died of artherosclerotic heart disease June 14, 2012, in Clearwater, Fla. She was one month shy of her 97th birthday.
Mrs. Tubbs was born to Matthew and Esther Kinghorn Briggs on July 18, 1915, in Allison. She graduated from Durango High School in the early 1930s.
In 1934, she married J.W. Tubbs in Durango. The couple were sheep ranchers in the Allison and Bayfield areas, running a flock of about 1,000 sheep.
In her late 40s, Mrs. Tubbs returned to school, earning a bachelor�s degree from Fort Lewis College in 1964 and went on to earn a master�s degree from Adams State College in Alamosa in 1965.
She taught for a year at Bayfield Elementary School and, after she and her husband sold their ranch, was a reading specialist for the Corona School District in Corona, Calif., for 20 years until her retirement when she was 70.
�She said her contribution to the world was to help 700 children to read well,� her family said.
After her retirement, Mrs. Tubbs moved to Florida to be near her daughter.
She was a member of United Methodist Church and National Education Association.
Mrs. Tubbs was preceded in death by her husband of 41 years, J.W. Tubbs, in 1975; and son John A. Tubbs.
She is survived by her daughter, Judith Ann Willey of Clearwater; son Harold D. Tubbs of Jacksonville, Fla.; nine grandchildren; and 18 great-grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, July 21, 2012, at Pine River Cemetery on County Road 501 in Bayfield.

MARTINSBURG - Have you ever wanted to travel north to Martha's Vineyard, south to Natchez, Miss., or to the far reaches of Varanasi, India?
You now have the opportunity to see a glimpse of these and a variety of other locations, including Sharpsburg, Md., and Charles Town, through the eyes and lenses of members of the Jefferson County Photography Club. This interesting retrospective of works from the past year is available to the public for only a limited amount of time.
Through December 31, eight members of the Jefferson County Photography Club will exhibit 31 of their finest images at the Martinsburg-Berkley County Public Library. The library is located at 101 W. King St. in Martinsburg and is open to the public on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m.
The club members participating in the exhibit include Lisa Lin Arroniz, Melanie Brownsmith, Sally Fitzgerald, Curt Mason, John Moore, Alice Newton, Dan Smith and Rip Smith. The photographers have captured the light, emotion and drama that bring each of these places and subjects alive to the viewers.
The members of the Jefferson County Photography Club capture still, film based and digital images in color as well as black and white tones. Club members range from beginners to experienced professional photographers. Each meeting of the club includes activities to exchange ideas, foster learning and expand the photographic realm for the members.
The club meets the second Tuesday night of each month at 7 p.m. at the Fire House Gallery, 108 N. George St., Charles Town. The JCPC is a member of the Arts and Humanities Alliance of Jefferson County. For more information, visit www.jcpc.org.

Women's Tailored Jacket
Added Jun 28, 2010
By burdastyle
New York, New Yo...
There's something empowering about wearing a tailored jacket, especially one which you have made for yourself. Say hello to the Jorinde jacket, complete with front yokes, top-stitching, flap pockets and guess what? This pattern is FREE!
For today's Androgynous variation we adjusted the pocket flaps to be straight- not curved as the pattern piece indicates. We chose a subtle gray wool suiting fabric, a light silk lining and muted shell buttons. This jacket style looks great with high-waist trousers or thrown over a dress on a cool summer night…
Styling Notes: "I wanted to show this jacket in an androgynous fashion. I paired the jacket with tough looking high-waist Balenciaga trousers and a more demure ivory silk vintage blouse. The hat was made for a friend in Denmark and adds an alluring silhouette to almost anything you wear it with." -alison
Material Notes
Self: 2 yards (1m 90 cm) Lining: 56" (1m 40cm) wide, 58" (1m 45cm) long

i have been meaning to make this for a while and have only just started but i have encountered some comments on various burdastyle patterns that they dont have accurate sizing, i was wondering if someone who has made it could help me out and let me know if the sizing is accurrate or i need to make a size smaller/larger thanks x
Jul 12, 2010, 04.11 PMby catyblue
It is a nice jacket, not sure if it's me but it is cute and free which is fantastic! I know a lot of people have complained about the fitting, but as this is a boyfriend styled garment I think it is supposed to be this way, like boyfriend jeans are not supposed to fit either
Jul 2, 2010, 07.36 AMby sandrasews
Love it. Exactly my style.
Jul 2, 2010, 12.32 AMby Aldana Peluso
sorry, but i will copy the model's hair LOL sorry but I like it, i dont like the jacket =(
Jul 1, 2010, 06.22 PMby wzrdreams
With all the comments about the fit i have to wonder…. Does Burdastyle fit a muslin on the model? I'm guessing the answer is no since model bookings are expensive.
Perhaps Burdastyle could do more projects that use the team members as the models (Alden, Nora, Hikaru, Alison, David etc…) and perhaps (hint hint) they could include some information about achieving personalized fit for the individual model.

I'd love to see some fit tutorials, both about how to alter for personalized fit and about what you should be aiming for when you're fitting. Sounds silly, but sometimes I have a hard time telling when something is actually fitting well and when it needs to be adjusted.
Jun 30, 2010, 09.42 PMby Daniel Parker

hmmmm I think that it does not realy fit well :-/
and the most important: the arms are tooooo short and they don't fall well.
Jul 1, 2010, 05.31 PMby woman
oo hmm personally i like the length of the arms, think they are just about right for ze ladies, nothing like a bit of wrist cleavage showing haha.. as for the fit, well i guess it seems to look more like a casual fit rather than a super tailored fit.. which is why i thought of doing it in a size smaller one day..
Jul 2, 2010, 06.52 AMby elguanche
well maybe… but I can't believe that anybody would buy this one if it had been made by a real tailor ;-)
Jun 30, 2010, 11.14 AMby woman
my gawsh i think i almost had an orgasm looking at the cutting and the seams of the pieces, especially what the back looks like. not a fan of the large pocket flaps, but nevertheless it's an awesome jacket.. hope i'll get the courage to sew this one day, probably go a size smaller to make it fit more?

love all the interaction and varied opinions, keep up the work,people forget that patterns require a lot of work to fit well

It doesn't fit very well and it isn't sewn all that well either.

Criticism is constructive only when it is specific. In this case I would suggest pressing the bust dart over a tailors ham, testing and adjusting the thread tension (especially for the pocket flaps) and being careful not to over press the seam allowances. You would be amazed at how often I see these very issues on RTW suits. Luckily, we have control of our own creations and we are here to learn how to perfect our skills.

What a great pattern! And now that it's in a new light, its even more appealing! I have to say that I find restyles great. In fact, I wish that more companies including the major commercial pattern companies would restyle some of their patterns. Its so nice to see something done up in fresh and current fabrics with maybe a great accessory added here or there.
Jun 29, 2010, 08.27 AMby gillthecat
isnt it said that there is no such thing as the original though a famous quote,, canny remember who from,, restyles are all that fashion is, just the same things slightly altered,, differnt scale fabric but its all been done befor,, apart from boob tubes,, and really they have different rules specially for them !! so i think any free stuff is cool, and the burda patterns from the magazines seem a good idea to me,, i subscribe to the mag , but usualy only make a couple of things so doesnt work out cheaper,, i think the site is bloody great,, makes you feel part of a big village rather than in the middle of knowhere like i am in australia,, i love it keep up good work, and the jacket,, well i like it but i have about 40 projects in my mind ahead of it,, ho hum no time plenty of enthusiasm

Also if anyone has made this pattern…. were the shoulder pads necessary? if so is there a simple way to alter the pattern so that they aren't because i am only 15 and i think shoulder pads are a little too grown up for me lol

Jun 29, 2010, 03.47 PMby alisondahl
I don't think the shoulder pads are necessary, although what they do is create a nice stiff line at the shoulder and sleeve head. By simply omitting them you can create a less severe look- there isn't really anything you need to do to change the pattern. You could put some reinforcing (like interfacing) at the sleeve head for structure though…
Jun 29, 2010, 07.50 PMby nancykarpengmailcom
Some sort of shoulder pad is necessary in a tailored jacket for support. If it shows shoulder pads you need to use them or you need to reduce both the height of the shoulder and the sleeve cap. But you do need some sort of support in a tailored jacket, even if it's a minimal pad.
Jun 29, 2010, 08.10 PMby wzrdreams
I have to agree with nancykarpen…. there is extra space drafted into a pattern that is meant to have shoulder pads. Without a pad the shoulder will collapse and you may get wrinkling around the under arms. Pads come in all shapes and thicknesses though so don't worry that you must get a boxy linebacker shoulder. If you really want to eliminate the pad, you should make a muslin and pinch out the excess from the shoulder seam and sleeve cap…. but it isn't really a quick alteration.
Jun 29, 2010, 05.45 AMby Kelsey Edwards
i found this free pattern today and i just had to join this site so i could make it myself. I am so excited to add my own details. Will definately be looking forward to any new projects. Also I dont think it is boxy at all, it is just the right amount of femininity! x] The styling is just like out of a fashion magazine lol

Awesome, not like I NEED another blazer…but I was just thinking about making one with some scrap fabric I have….oh it's on <3

wow, this is lovely! I never really thought about making a jacket out of that pattern, but now i am looking at this pattern in a totally different way! hmm, i cant wait for fall to come!
Jun 29, 2010, 01.27 AMby thecuriouskiwi
There has been a lot of negativity on this site lately, how about some positive thoughts huh? This is a cute restyle guys and on trend, a great inspiration that shows you don't need to own 100 jacket patterns for 100 different jacket types, sometimes an added detail here and there or a little basic redrafting and a change to fabric creates an entirley new look! :) A little while ago people were complaining about not enough free patterns, well this is great inspiration for all sewers of another fantastic FREE pattern, well done guys! xx

wow, the material on this take totally made me look at the pattern like i'd never seen it before. i may actually have to attempt a jacket now…. curse you, allison dahl! :)

I always felt that this site was created to inspire. I don't mind at all when Burda Style posts a restyle of a previous pattern. It lets me see that pattern with just enough of a difference to get me thinking a little more creatively. Some times I don't like the original of a posted pattern and then later, I see a remake of it and I like it. Reminding me to think outside of the box and that the patterns serves as a base line and sewing it is to make it my own.
Jun 28, 2010, 04.51 PMby lala86
ok but isn't that collar tutorial refered to the original pattern? how do we sew this variation? please help! I can see many changes as the piece at the shoulder that are not in the original Eva pattern.

It's actually eva that's been altered. And yeah new patterns are the best way for a company to make money I thought?

If only we had endless funds for production right now- but we don't. We're feeling the repercussions of this recession just as much as anyone else and to be frank, I have to be creative about what we DO have. And what is that? A vast catalog of inspiring, wonderful patterns. As the Creative Director of BurdaStyle I have to work with what we've got. It's extremely expensive to produce just 1 pattern. I love this jacket pattern and think it is important to show the various ways one can interpret a pattern, as there are endless possibilities within a single pattern. It hurts me to find these negative comments just as much as it frustrates you to not have brand new products each week. I am working hard to stay inspired amidst this community and trying my best to keep things fresh. I think patterns are extremely valuable and full of potential. We are celebrating what we've already accomplished until we have the budget to bring our new ideas to light.
Jun 28, 2010, 05.15 PMby wzrdreams
Yes, this is the Jorinde pattern, not the Eva pattern. The pocket flap has been slightly modified, but that looks like the only change based on the photos.
Alison, I think you are doing a lovely job with the restyles. They serve as a reminder that a classic style has many possibilities and design is really about imagination and choices. It is creativity & inspiration that bring me back to this site, not just the patterns.
Just an idea; I would love to see a restyle for one of the jacket patterns in an unlined summer weight fabric such as seersucker, linen, or denim.
Jun 28, 2010, 06.10 PMby ghainskom
wzrddream, what a great idea! Unlined and finished Hong Kong style! I can see it!
Jun 28, 2010, 07.22 PMby Dani Restercher
Did I accidentally mark wzrdreams inappropriate? If so sorry I didn't mean to!
I doubt anyone wants to upset people but I don't mind restyles so much but every week for weeks and weeks it is something frustrating. The hat tutorial was really good and because it's something new it went down well perhaps burda could go down the smaller tutorials road until they get back on their feet?
Also not to be harsh but people post their opinions on every side of all subject matters on the internet. I wouldn't take it hurtfully.

A fast food spot known for fried chicken was hit with a red sticker after a recent health inspection.
During routine inspection, the Albuquerque Environmental Health Department gave Church's Chicken at 2937 San Mateo Blvd. NE a red sticker.
Critical violations included:
- Food not held at hot enough temperatures
- Wiping cloths not stored properly
- The plumbing system wasn't properly maintained for handwashing sink
- Ice machine not draining, which created puddles throughout the kitchen area
Action 7 News left messages for restaurant management, but have not heard back.
When the health department returned for a re-inspection, the violations were corrected and the red sticker was removed.

I met some of our neighbors and even though we're renting our house for now, I am absolutely in love with the neighborhood. It's so quiet and still and friendly.
Noah gets off the bus first, and I was relieved that he remembered which stop was ours, and then Carter's bus comes about the same time as Gray's an hour later- on opposite ends of the block! We were also waiting for our moving truck to arrive at that moment. Everyone made it and I think we're going to try a different bus stop for Gray today behind our house that I think might be more convenient. Noah has a theatre arts class and he thinks it's pretty cool (as do I!) Carter was super stoked about his new teacher and friends, and Gray's only comment about his first day was a long ranty complaint about the kids being too noisy on the bus. So, things are more normal than I thought they'd be after all.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. — It's getting romantic on the lake.
William Shakespeare brings "The Two Gentlemen of Verona" under the stars of Lake Tahoe and onto the Warren Edward Trepp Stage at Sand Harbor State Park July 13 through Aug. 26 to celebrate the festival's 40th anniversary season.
"The location itself is one of the most beautiful ones of any cultural events in the United States," said Lee Koch, marketing and outreach director of Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival
Directed by Charles Fee, the doubly delightful comedy is about two close friends whose friendship ultimately gets tested when Proteus forsakes his beloved Julia and competes for the affections of Valentine's newfound love, Silvia.
Visitors can witness a variety of authentic costumes, unique sets and even listen to live onstage music.
One of Shakepeare's first written plays back in 1590, it not only is about friendships, love and conflicts, but also includes two Tahoe dogs who will be on stage as part of the cast.
Filled with rich, romantic language, the comedic scenes display Shakespeare's copious comic powers at their hilarious height.
Great Lakes Theater Festival entered into partnership with Lake Tahoe two years ago, which has two other locations in Boise, Idaho, and Cleveland, where similar Shakespeare events take place and actors are coming from.
"It is a collaborative use of each others talents," Koch said.
Every Monday night during their 40th anniversary, a lineup of live entertainment and music is scheduled with Monday Night Showcase offerings.
Offered are The Reno Philharmonic Orchestra "Under the Western Sky" on July 23, the Sierra Nevada Ballet "Giselle" on July 30, Tocatta's "A Continuing Requiem for John Lennon" on Aug. 20 and many more.
The six-event performance series begins Monday, July 16, and continues each Monday through Aug. 20.

LESLLOYD F. ALLEYNE/Journal Inquirer
LESLLOYD F. ALLEYNE/Journal Inquirer
SOMERS, Conn. (AP) � Some who float in Wendy McCloskey�s circle of friends found it peculiar that she wanted to bring her newborn home.
The infant, after all, was not expected to live, the victim of a rare disorder that introduced an extra chromosome to her DNA.
But where they saw an unhealthy degree of morbidity, McCloskey and her husband, Bill, saw an opportunity to bathe little Macie Grace in devotion.
�You wouldn�t believe the things people would say,� McCloskey said, now able to chuckle when recalling that time.
�We wanted our daughter to know that she was loved,� she said. �We got to bring her home, for a day.�
A year after their child died in December 2007 after six days of life, the McCloskeys launched the Macie Grace Foundation, an endeavor that provides a $1,000 scholarship to a high school senior who overcomes a formidable challenge.
The foundation also promotes a bereavement program called Baby Steps for families who�ve lost a child.
In awarding a scholarship, the foundation looks for examples of teenagers who answer the bell after being staggered by the blows one�s life can deliver.
�We don�t necessarily look at top students,� McCloskey said. �We look at students who have overcome a major challenge and learned from it and persevered.�
The foundation so far has distributed 25 scholarships, all to students at either Somers or Stafford high schools, but McCloskey said the intention is to consider college-bound seniors at any school in the region. Much of the work has been done in partnership with the Somers Lions Club.
Meanwhile, the Somers couple hopes to expand the reach of Baby Steps. The group meets each month. Some meetings draw about a dozen people, fewer in the summer months.
Hartford Hospital, where Macie Grace was born, provides a Baby Steps brochure with an array of informational material given to families. McCloskey hopes to incorporate more hospitals and also religious centers in finding those who may benefit from a helping hand.
�When I was pregnant, we were given no support, and that�s a very devastating problem . Your world just changes,� she said. �We had four healthy children and with the fifth child we got this diagnosis.�
That diagnosis came when McCloskey was three months pregnant, prompting a wrenching period of introspection for the couple to determine what to do next.
�The majority of these moms and dads decide to terminate pregnancy. We decided to pray a lot and to say, �Hey, we�re going to see.��
�That�s a very personal decision,� she said. �We chose her, but for some people it�s too much to handle.�
Macie Grace�s genetic disorder is known as Trisomy 13, which along with Trisomy 18, are fatal versions. But another variation of the chromosomal condition, Trisomy 21, better known as Down syndrome, sees children grow into adults.
McCloskey is now offering support to a family in Hartford Hospital�s neonatal unit with a newborn diagnosed with Trisomy 13. That infant, about two months old, has long beaten the odds, since virtually all such diagnoses result in a child being stillborn or living a matter of days, if not hours.
Much of the McCloskeys attention these days goes toward fundraising efforts for the foundation. The biggest draw for them is the Race for Macie Grace, which is held as part of the larger ING Hartford marathon and half-marathon in October.
Last year, about 100 people signed up sponsors and participated in the run, bringing in about $10,000 for the foundation.
�We�ve had incredible supporters and amazing generosity,� said McCloskey, a nurse who these days more often assists her husband with his business offering insurance and financial services for seniors.
She speaks openly now about the traumatic time that befell her family in the weeks before Christmas 2007.
It was crucial that they deliver a gift to Macie Grace, she said, and she�s certain it was received.
�We knew she knew she was loved, and that was the best feeling,� McCloskey said. �The worst came after.�
With others questioning the judgment to bring Macie Grace home, it was one of the McCloskeys children, Billy, 11 at the time, who affirmed the decision to keep the girl close.
�This was the best six days of my life,� the boy said shortly after his sister�s six days concluded.

This is the first of a series of articles that will address a variety of news tidbits. While topics may not be related, they are all of great interest to many.
Article #1
Effect of 3-year Folic Acid Supplementation on Cognitive Function in Older Adults in the FACIT Trial
Journal and year in which it appeared: Lancet, 2007
To assess the effect of 800 micrograms of daily folic acid supplementation on the cognitive performance of men and women aged 50-70 who were known to have an elevated serum level of homocysteine (an amino acid). The study lasted for 3 years.
Individuals in this trial who took folic acid supplementation had a statistically significant improvement in both their memory and information processing speed.
Patients who have an elevated homocysteine level who take folic acid supplementation for 3 years saw an improvement in their cognitive function. However, as with all new regimens it is best to check with your physician first. All scientific study results cannot be extrapolated to everyone in the population.
Article #2
A Randomized Trial of Vitamin E Supplementation and Cognitive Function in Women
Journal and year in which it appeared: Archives of Internal Medicine, 2006
To assess whether vitamin E supplementation prevents a decline in cognitive function in older women
There was no statistically significant protection against a decline in cognitive function in healthy older women who supplemented their diet with vitamin E.
Though some observational studies suggest that vitamin E may be of benefit in decreasing the rate of cognitive decline, this study, done on many thousands of women did not show a benefit.
Article #3
Aerobic Exercise Training Increases Brain Volume in Aging Adults
Journal and year in which it appeared:
J Gerontology A Biological Sciences Med Sci, 2006
To compare change in brain volume between older adults who participated in an aerobic exercise program to those who participated in a non-aerobic exercise program. Both programs involved three 1-hour sessions of exercise weekly for 6 months.
After 6 months, the group of older individuals who were assigned to the aerobic exercise group had brain imaging which showed they had significant increases in brain volume when compared to the brain volume in the non-aerobic exercise group. The most significant gains in brain volume were seen in the frontal lobe and cortical gray matter regions. These regions are implicated in higher order memory processes and attentional control. There was also a significant increase in the volume of brain white matter among aerobic exercisers. Of note, no changes were seen in brain volume over the same 6 month period in younger individuals.
This study suggests that regular aerobic exercise can not only help spare brain volume loss, but can actually increase brain volume in older adults. However, as previously mentioned, it is important to check with your physician prior to beginning any new regimen.

There are still points to try to earn, a long shot playoff berth for the Buffalo Sabres to push for. But the last 10 games are about much more than that. It can be the first look at a new core.
A player like Christian Ehrhoff is on a long-term contract. So is Tyler Myers. And others like Tyler Ennis, Cody Hodgson and Andrej Sekera can all start to take much more of the reins than they have in the past.
"I was just thinking about this the other day," Ennis said prior to Sunday's game against the New Jersey Devils.. "The first team I was on here when we went to the playoffs (2009-10), there's just a handful of guys left. It's kind of strange.
"It's definitely got to be a group of us now stepping up to make a difference. It's there for us. I know we're a committed, focused group and that's not going to be an issue. We just have to take advantage of it and get this team where it needs to be."
"The next wave of players is coming," said Steve Ott, often mentioned as a captain possibility next season. "That's kind of going to be their team going forward here. Even when I'm gone, you'd hope these guys will be here for a long time and continue to be solid hockey players. It's their turn to take the next step to become leaders on and off the ice."
Myers is in the first year of his seven-year extension and has struggled for large stretches of the season. But he knows the trades of Jordan Leopold and Robyn Regehr off the blue line and captain Jason Pominville sends a message that the younger players need to seize control.
"It's certainly leaning towards that direction it seems," Myers said. "It's a much younger team already with the three guys that we lost. There's always talk and rumors about Thomas Vanek and [Ryan Miller] and their situations too. We'll cross that bridge when that time comes.
"There's guys in the room that are going to have to step up, not only on the ice but to take a leadership position in the room."
Interim coach Ron Rolston said watching the dressing room dynamic will be one of the unique elements of the final 10 games.
"They're in a situation now where for them it's to be the next core of leaders coming up for us," Rolston said. "And before you can be a leader in any capacity, you've got to be consistent. You've got to take care of your own game because if you're not, there's not a lot of people who are going to follow you if you can't be consistent."
While the Leopold and Regehr trades were pretty much expected, Myers admitted he was shaken by the loss of Pominville, a player he's seen every day since his NHL career began in 2009.
"It was definitely pretty strange not seeing him come into the rink the next morning," Myers said. "I know what he meant to this organization being here so long, being the person he was and the player he was."
After a brutal start to the season, Myers entered Sunday plus-3 in the last four games and averaging more than 25 minutes of ice time in them. Ennis, meanwhile, was trying to shake a seven-game goal drought.
"You have to worry about getting better," Ennis said. "You look at the standings and you know where you are. There's been a lot of changes all year but you have to get better in areas every day. You improve in those areas and as a whole everything starts to get better. I think we're seeing a little bit of that right now."
Thomas Vanek missed his sixth straight game with an upper body muscle strain and did not even take the morning skate but Rolston said the Sabres' leading scorer has not suffered a setback.
"We wanted to give him today off completely because he's been out there a lot," Rolston said. "Just wanted to give him the complete rest day off so he'll be back out there [today]."
Rolston said he's still holding out hope Vanek can play Tuesday in Winnipeg. The Sabres have no extra players on hand so the only ones not in the lineup Sunday were Vanek and fellow injured forward Ville Leino.
Former Sabres defenseman Henrik Tallinder was a scratch for the Devils after playing the last four games. Tallinder, in the third season of a four-year, $13.5 million contract, has one goal and three assists in 18 games with a plus-3 rating.
Goaltender Matt Hackett, acquired from Minnesota in the Pominville trade, had a huge debut Sunday for the Rochester Amerks in a 3-2 shootout win over Albany. Hackett made 39 saves in the game and stopped all three Albany attempts in the shootout.
Zemgus Girgensons, Buffalo's second No. 1 pick last June, scored a short-handed goal with 4:25 left to force overtime. Girgensons has five goals for the Amerks.

What is doping?Doping is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the following anti-doping rule violations:
01. Presence of Prohibited Substance:
Presence of a prohibited substance or its metabolites or markers in an athlete's sample
02. Use of Prohibited Substance/Method:
Use or attempted use by an athlete of a prohibited substance or method
03. Refusing Sample Collection:
Refusing, or failing without compelling justification, to submit to sample collection after notification as authorized in applicable anti-doping rules, or otherwise evading sample collection
04. Failure to File Whereabouts & Missed Tests:
Violation of applicable requirements regarding athlete availability for out-of-competition testing, including failure to file required whereabouts information and missed tests (i.e., any combination of three missed tests and/or filing failures within an 18-month period may be deemed a doping violation)
05. Tampering:
Tampering or attempted tampering with any part of the doping control process
06. Possession:
Possession of a prohibited substance and prohibited method
07. Trafficking:
Trafficking or attempted trafficking in any prohibited substance or method
08. Administration:
Administration or attempted administration to an athlete of a prohibited substance and/or method; or assisting, encouraging, aiding, abetting, covering up or any other type of complicity involving an anti-doping rule violation or any attempted anti-doping rule violation.
What substances and methods are banned?The List of Prohibited Substances and Methods (List), updated annually by WADA, is the International Standard defining what is prohibited in- and out-of-competition. The List also indicates whether particular substances are banned in particular sports. Here you can find The 2014 Prohibited List
What else should athletes know about banned substances and methods?
Also, athletes should always make their doctor aware that they are bound by the specific rules of their sport. Those who are unsure of what a product contains should not take it until they are sure it is not prohibited. Ignorance is never an excuse.
What should athletes know about using supplements?
Extreme caution is recommended regarding supplement use. It is WADA's position that a good diet is of utmost importance to athletes. The use of dietary supplements by athletes is a concern because, in many countries, the manufacturing and labelling of products may not follow strict rules, which may lead to a supplement containing an undeclared substance that is prohibited under anti-doping regulations. A significant number of positive tests have been attributed to the misuse of supplements, and taking a poorly labelled dietary supplement is not an adequate defence in a doping hearing.
What about medical conditions?Athletes, like all others, may at times experience a medical condition that requires them to use particular medicines. The substances that an athlete may be required to take to treat a condition could fall under the List. However, by applying and obtaining a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) from the IF or NADO, an athlete may be allowed to take the necessary medicine. Athletes who need to apply for a TUE should request more information about the TUE application process from their IF (for international-level athletes) or NADO (for national-level athletes).
Here you can find more information about Therapeutic use exemptions (TUE).
What are doping controls?
Worldwide doping controls—or athlete testing—are carried out in accordance with the Code and the International Standard for Testing (IST). Athletes who compete at the international and national level may be tested anytime, anywhere. Specially trained and accredited doping control personnel carry out all tests.
01. Athlete Selection
02. Notification
03. Reporting to the Doping Control Station
04. Selection of a Collection Vessel
05. Provision of Sample
06. Volume of Urine
07. Selection of a Sample Collection Kit
08. Splitting the Sample
09. Sealing the Samples
10. Measuring Specific Gravity
11. Completion of the Doping Control Form
12. The Laboratory Process
Check out the World Anti-Doping Agency movie about the doping control process for athletes
What is in-competition testing?
ADOs coordinate in-competition testing so that there is only one organization testing at an event. Unless provided otherwise in the rules of the relevant IF or event ruling body, in-competition means the period commencing 12 hours before a competition in which the athlete is scheduled to participate through the end of the competition and the sample collection process related to the competition.
Criteria for the selection of athletes is pre-determined, based on the regulations of the relevant IF or event ruling body. Sample collection takes place in accordance with the IST. Athletes are notified of their selection for testing. Samples are analyzed for "in-competition substances" as outlined in the Prohibited List.
What is out-of-competition testing?
Out-of-competition testing, or any testing done outside of an event, ensures that athletes can be tested at any time and at any place.

MARTINSBURG - Traffic in and around Martinsburg was at a standstill once again Thursday afternoon following yet another accident on Interstate 81.
Today, state officials will be in Berkeley County to assess the situation for themselves.
Paul A. Mattox Jr., West Virginia secretary of transportation and commissioner of highways, plans to be in Martinsburg today to see first-hand the construction zone on Interstate 81, where there has been a chronic problem with traffic accidents.

Journal photo by John McVey
Motorists were stranded in the northbound lanes of Interstate 81 for several hours Thursday because of a tractor-trailer accident around the 17-mile marker. Cars and trucks were backed up for several miles.
"I'm going to assemble a team and fly up (today) to tour the project site and meet with the project personnel," Mattox told The Journal during a telephone interview Thursday, after another traffic accident on I-81 had turned the highway into a parking lot.
At about 3:30 p.m., a tractor-trailer reportedly overturned around the 17-mile marker in the northbound lanes of I-81. The accident site was right before the construction zone begins, where traffic merges from three lanes to two and the traffic pattern shifts. Traffic was backed up for several miles, and routes through the city of Martinsburg were packed as well.
The interstate was closed for approximately three hours after the incident. The West Virginia State Police was unable to release information about the accident Thursday evening.
Mattox was alerted to Thursday's situation by West Virginia Senate Majority Leader John Unger, D-Berkeley, who saw the traffic jam while passing over I-81 at Edwin Miller Boulevard, heard about the accident on the radio and called the secretary.
"I have requested all the documents relating to this project and I'm going to review them," Unger said in a telephone interview Thursday. "It is supposed to be completed by an August completion date and I want (the construction company) held to that August date. They're trying to extend it, because of the weather. They should expedite it, work double shifts. It's a safety issue."
Mattox said he will be accompanied during his visit by his traffic engineer and state highway engineer.
"We will assemble a plan to improve safety in the construction zone and work on it on our way back (to Charleston), and we'll share that plan with Sen. Unger," Mattox said.

Dead horse I know, but if Malkin had been suspended for Game 3 like he was supposed to be (until Uncle Gary recinded the instigator penalty citing that "the game needs its stars to play") then Malkin wouldn't had been able to factor in to ALL the goals (except the EN)
If Detroit goes up 3 games to ZERO in that series, Detroit wins back-back Cups...Again! But Uncle Gary couldn't have that happen now could he?
Malkin wrestled with Zetterberg at the end of game 5, from what I remember. Not game 2.

Youth HIV/AIDS and Health Education
A gift of HIV/AIDS and health education will provide essential education for a youth so they will be equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to prevent HIV/AIDS. Young men and women are the future of Tanzania, therefore, it is imperative that their health and well-being be preserved. Surveys make it clear that programs are needed that move youth from awareness and knowledge to actual behavior change.
In response to the need for training in life skills such as communication, relationships, decision-making, and goal setting in order to help translate knowledge into behavior change, Global Service Corps conducts an annual two-week long HIV/AIDS Prevention, Health and Life Skills Day camp for approximately 300 secondary school students. After camp, students are trained to be peer educators so they can continue to educate their fellow students. GSC staff provides support and follow up to ensure the success of health clubs.
Support follow-up of health club activities in schools including providing supplemental educational materials (US$10)
Send one student to day camp for two weeks (US$30)

Sack Garden for a family affected by HIV/AIDS
A gift of a sack garden is a sustainable way to provide a family affected by HIV/AIDS access to proper nutrition including green vegetables. A sack garden is a type of urban garden that is used for people with limited living space and/or for people with limited physical strength to take care of a traditional garden. In this regard, a sack garden is ideal for a person living with HIV/AIDS since it takes minimal effort to care for.
Your gift of a sack will alleviate the problems many people with HIV have in obtaining nutritious foods.

Home garden for an orphanage
A gift of a home garden is a way for orphanages to become more self-reliant. Many orphanages in Tanzania live hand to mouth counting on small, sporadic donations in order to cover costs of housing, food, clothing, and education for their children. Establishing an organic home garden for an orphanage will not only provide children with the proper nutrition they need but will also serve to train those old enough with gardening skills they can carry with them throughout life.
Seeds for a garden (US$20)

Chicken vaccination project
A gift of vaccinating chickens against Newcastle Disease will provide a family with increased nutrition and sources of income. Each year Newcastle Disease kills 70% of the chicken population in Tanzania. Since chickens are the livestock of the poor and vulnerable including children, this disease has a major impact on the lives and well-being of a large portion of the population. In 2009, GSC launched a project called "CatchThat Chicken" which focuses on vaccinating chickens against this disease. Vaccination will allow chickens to live longer thereby producing more eggs and growing to a larger size for consumption. The goal of this project is to ultimately increase the nutrition and income of the most vulnerable whose livelihood comes from chickens.
Vaccinate a flock of 20 chickens (US$10)
Provide a community training workshop on nutrition, health, and Newcastle Disease (US$50)
Vaccinate chickens in an entire village (US$100)
Provide a bicycle for a community vaccinator (US$200)

Hafirs - Rainwater collection tanks for home garden irrigation
A gift of a hafir creates a home water source to reduce the need for women and children to haul water long distances. This 12 m3 trench is lined and covered with plastic to decrease evaporation and filtration. Surrounded by a natural jatropha tree or acacia thorn fence to keep animals and small children out, a hafir can hold 12,000 liters of water and only costs 1/50th of other conventional options! During the rains, the tank collects and stores rainwater that can then be used for various tasks during the dry season, such as watering home gardens.
Provide a hafir for one family (US $30)
Train families to purify the water for kitchen use and help neighbors to build their own hafir (US $100)

Grain stores for improved storage to reduce 40%+ losses
A gift of a Grain Store Training Package will help rural communities alter their traditional grain stores and reduce the current average losses, which exceed 40% from field to mouth. The package includes training on how to modify traditional stores, reduce molds through improved selection and drying techniques prior to storage, implement the use of biodegradable pest management, such as ashes and Neem tree leaves, and how to reduce access to the grain by rats. The trainings also entail working with neighbors to help them build their own stores, which will lower the training costs over time as improved grain stores increase in usage.
Provide a grain "store" for improved storage (US $40)
Permanent grain store and training to help neighbors build their own stores (US $100)

Improved fruit and vegetable drying to reduce 50% losses
A gift of a Food Drying Training Package will help rural communities work together to dry their excess fruits and green garden products for later use in the dry season, or for sale to augment incomes. Typical on-farm losses from field to mouth exceed 50% due to the lack of food preservation knowledge and methods. Furthermore, these on-farm losses contribute to the significant and common vitamin A deficiencies found in mothers' and children's diets, especially during the dry season. GSC's training package includes alternative low-cost drying structures, education about appropriate drying methods, and information sessions on how to reconstitute the dried foods for preparation and use in cooking.
Modified home food dryer for individual use (US $50)
Community food dryer for community members to share (US $300)

1. Re: Question on f4f file contentsFlashing Mathur Jan 29, 2012 10:59 PM (in response to jbwebb13)
Please go through the spec link shared @ http://www.adobe.com/products/httpdynamicstreaming/pdfs/httpdynamicstreaming_wp_ue.pdf for information about f4fs.
Go to "HTTP Dynamic Streaming file formats" section for an explanation to your problem.
2. Re: Question on f4f file contentsjbwebb13 Jan 30, 2012 2:34 AM (in response to Flashing Mathur)
I have gone through the "Adobe Flash Video File Format" spec, which is why I quoted it in my question. In that spec it says that there will be "Quantity : One" mdat box in a file container but this isn't correct. In the link you just sent me it says that the "file format supports an efficient fragment structure that interleaves metadata inside multiple moof boxes and media data in multiple mdats in a single file". So it seems that the first spec is not accurate. Thanks for the additional information.
3. Re: Question on f4f file contentsFlashing Mathur Jan 30, 2012 8:33 AM (in response to jbwebb13)
Kindly, point me to the source of f4f specification you have. We will amend the same.
I hope you have got the basic structuring of segment (f4f) and fragment.
4. Re: Question on f4f file contentsjbwebb13 Jan 30, 2012 11:23 AM (in response to Flashing Mathur)
I got it from the link on this page :
5. Re: Question on f4f file contentsjbwebb13 Jan 30, 2012 1:55 PM (in response to Flashing Mathur)
I have a question on the contents of an f4f file generated by the f4fPackager.
In the file there are 2 tracks, one video, one audio. In looking at the trackFragmentBox contents in the video track there is (as expected) a set of track fragment run boxes.
In one that I'm looking at, the values of the track fragment run box are :
Flags : 00 00 0F
Sample Count : 1
Data Offset : 0x61
Sample Duration : 0x21
Sample Size : 0x686B
Sample Flags 0x02000000
Sample Composition Time Offset : 0x42
What is the offset relative to ? is it the start of the mdat box? or ?
And does the f4fpackager interleave the video and audio samples when it generates the file?
6. Re: Question on f4f file contentsjbwebb13 Jan 31, 2012 3:19 AM (in response to Flashing Mathur)
And from the same spec that I sent the link for, in the description of the abst it says that the BootstrapInfoVersion is :
"The version number of the bootstrap information.
When the Update field is set, BootstrapinfoVersion
indicates the version number that is being
In the generated .f4f file the update field is not set for any of the 65 abst boxes. Does this field indicate the moof sequence # that the abst is for?
7. Re: Question on f4f file contentsjbwebb13 Jan 31, 2012 5:04 AM (in response to Flashing Mathur)
I sent you a private message but while waiting for a reply I will keep posting my questions - these all come from examining a generated .f4f file and trying to correlate the contents to what is in the spec. I'm wondering if the spec is out of date? Or something is off because in the spec, in reference to the Adobe Mux Hint Sample box (rtmp) it says that the box contains an Adobe Mux Hint Process box (amhp) and that this box (amhp) is mandatory. But in the parsing of the generated .f4f file I find an rtmp box followed not by an amhp box, but instead a skip box. So this amhp is not mandatory?
8. Re: Question on f4f file contentsNikhil Pavan Kalyan Jan 31, 2012 11:23 PM (in response to jbwebb13)
I can clarify some of the points above :
When the doc / spec mentions a fragment, it is not equivalent to f4f. f4f == segment. An f4f (segment) can have one or more fragments. Each fragment is a groups of four boxes : afra - abst - moof - mdat.
So, each fragment will have one mdat. And an f4f can have multiple fragments, and hence multiple mdat(s).
If I'm correct, audio and video intervleaving is maintained within the fragments.
Essentialy, every mdat box is a TCMessage (if you already knew the FMS video/audio message format).
Offset is the relative position of the mdat within the fragment. A fragment is supposed to be an independent entity that should be capable of playing back on its own (with a supported player). Hence within a fragment, there is no pointer(s) to anything outside a fragment.
A segment (f4f) will maintain the snapshot of all the fragments within it == fragment run tables and segment run tables.
The version number of the bootstrap information is a flag generally useful in live streaming cases. In live case, the fragments/segments keep on getting appended and hence there is a need to constantly 'refresh' the bootsrap file. It is in this process a version flag is maintained to see if the bootstrap file is updated. For VOD cases, I don't think this has much significance.
Hope the information is useful. Thank you !
9. Re: Question on f4f file contentsjbwebb13 Feb 1, 2012 12:37 AM (in response to Nikhil Pavan Kalyan)
That is very helpful - thanks! After looking at the generated f4f files I had come to a similar conclusion and it is great to have that confirmed. It would be nice if the spec actually said that because it does not. Is the FMS spec available for download so that if I have other quesitons I can confirm what format is expected? I will look on the site to see if I can find a link to it.
You say that the offset is relative to the fragment - is the Base Data Offset in the track fragment header relative to the fragment's location in the f4f itself? And then the track fragment run's data offset relative to the posiiton in the individual fragment?

Russian President Vladimir Putin made a heartless decision in signing a bill banning the adoption of Russian children by American citizens.
The effect of that decision is already cascading throughout the lives of anxious American would-be parents in the final stages of the adoption process. Worse is the image of children whose hopes of a better life have crashed to the ground, along with any trust that adults will keep their word.
The reason Putin signed the bill? He was angry at America.
The adoption ban is part of a bill retaliating against a new law here in the United States aimed at punishing human rights abuses in Russia. The Magnitsky Act was signed by President Obama last month. It will bar Russian citizens accused of violating human rights from traveling to the United States, or from engaging in financial transactions here.
Putin fumed. He offered that America is living in its own glass house when it comes to human rights abuses, citing what he described as abuses in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Ironically, the Obama administration had opposed the Magnitsky Act, perhaps because officials realized its possible ramifications. That opposition may also have been a reflection of our reliance on Russia as a partner in certain world affairs, from allowing overland routes through Russia to ship supplies to military units in Afghanistan to partnering in the effort to tamp down Iran's nuclear program, although the two countries disagree greatly over the civil war in Syria.
But Congress was itching to get the bill done while tying it with another measure granting Russia new status as a full trading partner.
Meanwhile, tens of thousands of innocent orphans in Russia have been used as political fodder. And what does Putin do? He scoffs, offering specious arguments such as that the ban applies only to the United States and, therefore, will not injure Russian orphans. He ignores the fact that nearly a thousand Russian children were adopted by American families last year alone. That compares to Italy at 798 followed by Spain with 685.
Families here in the United States who endure the grueling bureaucratic morass, spend $50,000 or more and embark on endless trips overseas, and pass sleepless nights wondering if the dream for themselves and those children will come true, are heartbroken. Imagine the heartbreak of children who will likely remain warehoused in the uncaring Russian orphanage system.
Parenting is not a science that only Americans have perfected. And there are certainly plenty of orphaned children here in this country in need of an equal amount of love and care.
But that doesn't forgive the unconscionable decision by Russia's leader and the cavalier manner in which he fails to recognize the far-reaching implications this will have on Russian society.
