The great importance of the routine estimation of the urinary ammonia in cases of acidosis is now attracting much attention, and the object of this paper is to report the study of a method the technic of which is so simple as to be available to the average clinical worker with limited laboratory facilities. It is hoped that the more general adoption of the ammonia determination will thus be encouraged. Of the several forms of acidosis always tending to develop symptoms of acid intoxication, those which may occur in diabetes and pregnancy are probably' the most important. The chief urinary symptoms are: (1) the presence of the so-called acetone bodies, i. e., acetone, diacetic acid, and, in severe cases, beta-oxybutyric acid; (2) a marked increase in the relative and absolute output of ammonia. The quantitative determination of the acetone bodies, while highly desirable from the ' standpoints of both prognosis

Bryce should still be in AAA because he is not hitting. He will be hitting below .200 in a few weeks and we will be sorry we brought him up so early. I don't understand how hitting under .200 V southpaws in AAA and under .300 v righties qualifies to be promoted to the majors. His full line in AAA was .250/.333/.375. I do agree with bringing up Moore because he hit .286/.364/.597 so that makes sense. The Gio move told me that Rizzo is following moneyball, so based on moneyball the Harper move makes no sense, especially when compared to the Moore move.
Gio is the anti-moneyball..... how many players did the Nats give up for him? Between the D-backs and Nats, the A's are building a very damn good team for the future....
The Nationals traded two for Gio and personally I think it was a great trade. Gio is awesome and it's hard not to love that guy. He's a pitcher but he can hit pretty well!
He's good, but will fade in 2nd half, like he normally does. Also there is a reason he has been traded 3 times in a short career.....
We'll see about that. He's been extremely consistent. Gio will be here for a while, I can count on that.
Part of the game, but Hamels is a moron for talking about it. He should just kept his mouth shut, and let the teams police it. Now MLB is going to suspend him for his comments. I knew something like would happen because of Harper's antics in the minors, this is just the Big-Leaguers handling it. But somebody like Roy Halladay or Josh Johnson should of done it instead of Hamels. Hamels is in no place to talk about it, he's a little bitch to begin with.
the spine is better than the knee, shin, ankle, elbow, bicep... etc...... less meat in those areas.... =) he's strong kid, he's fine. Just needs to learn the ropes, and keep his mouth shut.

+Jason Roberts take it for what it's worth, but that is the way baseball handles it, if you think otherwise, then why did he get drilled? He got his revenge stealing home anyways.
+Jeff Hewitt You're right. Werth will be out for one and a half to two months because of his broken wrist, and that's bad news for the Nats. He's becoming somewhat of a power hitter again and he has great speed in the outfield, a crucial part of the Nats' defense.

Part 1 of 2. For the HSC Chemistry syllabus dot-point: "Perform a first-hand investigation and solve problems using titrations including the preparation of standard solutions, and use available evidence to quantitatively and qualitatively describe the reaction between selected acids and bases". This experiment is important because it is one of the most commonly chosen experiments for Prac Exams. Prac Exams could come any time throughout year 12 – but most of the time they occur as part of your trial HSC exams, and usually worth around 20% of total internal assessment. Therefore it is important to pay close attention to proper titration procedure and understand the underlying processes of neutralization reactions. For this titration, our unknown was a solution of NaOH (the analyte) and our standard solution was oxalic acid (crystals in dihydrate form) – the titrant. Glassware was rinsed properly with either deionised water or with the solution it was to contain (conical flask, volumetric flask – water / pipette, burette – solution). A total of 1 'rough titre' and 3 accurate titres were done. The average of the 3 accurate titres were recorded and used to finally calculate the concentration of the unknown NaOH. Our indicator was phenolphthalein due to its slightly basic endpoint (the titration was between a strong base and a weak acid, therefore the equivalence point would be slightly basic). Tip: If required to make your own standard solution, make sure you design your standard solution so that it was enough moles for you to do 3 titres.

Eberle For Jordan Staal
Fair trade? The rest of my roster is good, just need a centre. I think Eberle will get lots of points and Jordan might be a bit streaky this year, but then again Jordan could be great this year.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Don't trade Eberle, only stats to look at: he scored 32 goals on 180 shots last year (Neal had 41 on 330 or so, for comparison)

You lose that trade, add a couple more players to the trade one that is slightly better than the one your giving up

Thanks for your advice, guys. I'm not going for the trade, I'll find centre with a different trade.

Good trade if you need a C,,, all about balanced roster.
Draft Stall over Ebs,, no,, but we're not talking about drafting.
If you can get him and it fills a need,,, do it.
Stall will be fine as hr switched gears from #3 C on Pens and PK to being an Offensive player. Fricking guy was a threat every time he was on the ice,,, even on PK,,, have a look how many shortys he scored past few year. This guy knows how to bulge the twine

and he is listed as C/LW,,, bonussssssssssssss
Staal is a fantastic NHL player but fantasy value...meh. Not fantastic +/- on Carolina, probably won't take too many shots...PP time is fringe first line. Eberle on the other hand is almost certain to have an amazing season. If you REALLY need a C, I'd trade Eberle for something a little better.

I think Eberle is worth more than J. Staal
I wouldnt trade eberle for anyone, especially jordan staal.
streaky as in how? Staal is also defensive minded, moreso than eberle if thats what you mean. Eberle is going to get more goals.
what is your leagues point system like?

• The neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene has been localized to the pericentromeric region of the long arm of chromosome 17. A chronology of events leading to the cloning of the NF1 gene is offered as a summary of modern gene hunting techniques. The gene was identified by its location rather than its function using positional cloning. Linkage analysis, based on DNA polymorphisms, is already available for prenatal and presymptomatic testing. This technique works only in cases when affected family members are available and is useless in spontaneous cases.
The complete NF1 gene is huge, has a large number of exons, and is approximately 240 000 base pairs long. Its large size is consistent with the very high spontaneous mutation rate. The NF1 gene is evolutionarily conserved and expressed ubiquitously, not just in neural crest derivatives. Functional and structural homology with GAP (GTP [guanosine triphosphate]ase—activating protein) has been described. The GAP controls (or is controlled by) the ras oncogene. Aberration of ras function, which plays a fundamental role in growth, development, and differentiation, may play a role in the NF1 phenotype.
Direct DNA diagnosis of mutations in the NF1 gene in clinical practice is premature. Current data suggest that the NF1 gene product may act as a tumor suppressor.

Groton - Groton Human Services reached its maximum of 500 recipients of Thanksgiving and Christmas aid on Thursday and began turning families away, referring them to local churches for holiday meals and to another program for toys.
The department distributes meals for Thanksgiving and meals and toys for Christmas. It had expected to accept applications through Wednesday but already has had to turn away 24 families.
Applications are up for all assistance, including help with oil, rent and utilities. Families also are asking to visit the food locker more frequently than every three months, as had been typical, social worker Debbie Burke said.
Other agencies, such as the United Way/Gemma Moran Food Center and the Salvation Army, are reporting a greater need this year as well.
The New London food center put out an SOS on Thursday, looking for 400 more turkeys to reach its goal of providing 2,300 families with food baskets for Thanksgiving Thursday.
The Salvation Army in New London is preparing turkeys and bags of groceries for 300 families, providing a meal for all who applied for Thanksgiving help, according to Capt. Melissa Borrero. But about 400 families have qualified for help at Christmas, seeking not only toys and food, but also clothes, blankets and other household items, she said.
"I've been here 17 years, and this is the first time I've ever seen it like this," Diane Schrage, a counselor in Groton, said.
The town's human services director, Marge Fondulas, said the number of people the town can help is limited by space constraints and the number of staff needed to process applications, including verifying incomes.
Recipients lined up in the rain before the office opened Friday, the day the department distributed its Thanksgiving baskets, even though Burke had told them there was no need.
"I told people, 'It's not first come, first served. There's something with your name on it,'" she said.
She processed about 100 holiday applications, including one from a man who had applied for 92 jobs. She said other applicants in her office were in tears, saying they used to donate t the program.
"I think people don't have work, they don't have money," she said. "People are in big trouble." About 15 percent of those who applied were new to her.
Volunteers and staff set up tents outside Friday so families could drive past the donation area rather than wait in the rain. Fondulas said the community donated generously, and 29 people volunteered, including several town councilors and city officials.
As cars passed through, volunteers loaded boxes filled with items like potatoes, cereal, stuffing, pasta, gravy mix, applesauce and baked goods.
Applicants also received either a frozen turkey or a voucher to buy one.
Inside, people waiting to pick up baskets packed the lobby as soon as it opened.
"You couldn't move," Schrage said. The crowd had thinned by 10:30 a.m., but a later surge was expected.
Jessica Torres, who works at Lawrence + Memorial Hospital in New London, picked up a basket for herself and her two young sons. She said the food would help her, and she's worried about her job.
"I work in food service and they're looking at 'outsourcing' us," she said.
Hans Swainson, who is retired, said living expenses are just too high.
"Everything is just ridiculous," he said.
Paula Teixeira of Groton, who volunteers each year, said the number of boxes and families always shocks her.
She said she believes people are having to decide between necessities like gasoline and dinner.
"To fill a gas tank is 50 bucks," she said. "That's a lot of money for somebody making minimum wage."

Extreme Grass Grow Watching

Once upon a time (this summer) I stumbled upon a recipe for vegan cocktail that required wheat-grass. I did the recipe without it, but still I was puzzled what it is. I searched local shops for wheat grass, local markets, only thing that was around was wheat-seeds. So why not growing it on my own? :) Read the rest of this entry »

Every moment counts when your team takes the ice. You grip your stick tighter and steel yourself for the faceoff, ready to snag the puck and put your play into action. Your offense is razor-sharp, your defense is airtight and your enforcer isn't afraid to bloody up the opposing team or take a few minutes in the penalty box. Once the puck is in motion the five men behind you burst into action, sending it through a series of intricate passes too fast to intercept. You shoot past other players and take control of the puck once more, a breakaway move that brings it all down to you and the other team's goalie. This is your chance to reserve your place in the history books and lead your team to glory — do you have what it takes?

Hopkins vs. Dawson Rematch: Sport Before Entertainment
by Cliff Rold
The college football bowl season delivered some gems in the deservedly maligned BCS matches. The Rose Bowl was outstanding. So was the Fiesta. Before the opening kickoff, there was concern the National Championship Game, a rematch between Alabama and LSU, wouldn't match their thrills.
The first game between the two, a battle of big defense, field goals, and single digit scoring, was evidence as to why.
The rematch, an eventual rout in favor of Alabama, was a gem for hardcore football fans in love with big hits and great defense. For everyone else, hey, the remote control can land many a place.
Alabama-LSU II was a reminder major sports can exist on two platforms: competition between the best and entertainment. They aren't mutually exclusive accept when they are.
On Wednesday, boxing fans were informed a rematch has been signed between ageless lineal World Light Heavyweight Champion Bernard Hopkins (52-5-2, 32 KO) and former 175 lb. titlist Chad Dawson (30-1, 17 KO). Hopkins already bested former lineal champion Jean Pascal, victorious in their second fight after a debated draw the first time around. In Dawson, he has an opponent who meets the standard of competition between the best.
Dawson is, on merits, the next best Light Heavyweight after Pascal.
Whether fans will be entertained remains to be seen. Slotted for Atlantic City on April 28th, it will be no surprise if tickets are still available during the co-feature. It wasn't hard to find a seat the first time they faced off.
And, while the ending provided ample discussion, an entertaining fight it wasn't.
Squaring off after years of banter at the Staples Center in Los Angeles last October, Hopkins-Dawson I was playing out as a methodical chess game. Landed punches were at a premium. Clinches were inevitable. With a heightened awareness of Hopkins' ability to make fights rough and ugly when he needs to, Dawson reacted to efforts to a grind on the back of his neck with a forearm in round two by shaking Hopkins off with a little leg action to boot.
Fight over.
Fight never really started. Initially ruled a loss for Hopkins, the verdict was rightly overturned to a No Contest by the California State Athletic Commission in December.
Fans who saw what was unfolding, and how it ended, fans who paid for it on pay-per-view no less (and most tallies didn't out the buys number too high), couldn't be blamed for not wanting to see it again. From an entertainment standpoint, Hopkins and Dawson can be better matched.
It is still the right fight for April 28th. Hopkins and Dawson is still unfinished business. Whether it ends up worth what is paid for it, on regular HBO rather than pay-per-view this time, remains to be seen. From the standpoint of competition, it's hard to criticize.
Hopkins, as the years and decades pass, may ultimately come to be seen as the best fighter of his time. His lengthy rule of the Middleweight division has been followed by an incredible run in his 40s. He hasn't had the volume of fights the great Archie Moore did in his 40s, but he's beating the best of his time at an older age. One can make a strong case, excluding Felix Trinidad in 2001 and maybe Glen Johnson in 1997 (Johnson was a far cry from what he'd become), the now 47-year old Hopkins has had best run of opposition has come when most fighters are well into retirement.
Beginning with two fights against an undefeated Jermain Taylor in 2005, his run has included a reigning Light Heavyweight champ in Antonio Tarver, leading Middleweight contender Winky Wright, undefeated Super Middleweight king Joe Calzaghe, undefeated Middleweight king Kelly Pavlik, and now four straight against Pascal and Dawson. A brief dip against Middleweight Enrique Ornelas and long faded rival Roy Jones is the lone lull spot.
Asked at the post-fight press conference for Amir Khan-Lamont Peterson why his choice of opponents is often ballsier than men a decade and younger than him, Hopkins replied, "Because I have big balls."
There was a period where Dawson looked like the mountain Hopkins wouldn't, didn't want to, climb. Contractual obligations may have pushed the first encounter, but he went through. He's doing it again, with a nudge from the WBC mandating a rematch.
And the 29-year old Dawson is no slouch. With a win over Hopkins, he can clear a big hurdle to full recognition of a strong Light Heavyweight run. Since coming off the floor to defeat Eric Harding in 2006 and become a serious contender, he's faced a who's who of the class.
His first belt (WBC) came with a near whitewash of eventual Cruiserweight king Tomasz Adamek, blemished only by a late knockdown. He survived a thrilling war with Glen Johnson and put wide distance between the two in a rematch. Between those bouts, he won a pair of lopsided decisions against Tarver, the first for a title (IBF) held by Tarver.
His lone blemish still needs correcting. Matched with Jean Pascal in 2010 for a chance to truly stamp himself the true king of the division, Dawson struggled with a man whose speed was greater than his. One day, he may get a chance at vengeance.
It would mean a lot more if he can get by Hopkins first. In a division with a strong core of young talent like IBF titlist Tavoris Cloud (23-0, 19 KO), WBO titlist Nathan Cleverly (23-0, 11 KO), and impressive contender Ismayl Sillakh (17-0, 14 KO), Dawson has the challenges available to claim the finest competitive run at Light Heavyweight since Michael Spinks.
No, Roy Jones fans, that's not the same as saying he could have beaten the best of Jones. The loss to Pascal will always be heavy leverage against the position. It is to say he may one day be able to claim to have beaten better fighters overall at 175 lbs.
That's a good enough point to start a conversation. Time will tell if he can beat any of those men. Time will tell, in just a few short months, if he can beat Hopkins. He hasn't proven it yet. Hopkins hasn't proven able to get past him either. In terms of quality of talent, it is the best match the division can offer and a question worth resolving.
It is boxing as sport before entertainment.
The other names will have to bring us our Rose and Fiesta Bowls later.

Cliff's Notes… Given a choice, Floyd Mayweather-Miguel Cotto at Jr. Middleweight is better than Manny Pacquiao-Cotto II at Welterweight or some lame catchweight. It's a better choice period since it hasn't happened already in lopsided fashion. Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley is a dangerous fight for both that can be contested at Welterweight and gives fans the best two fights available of what is being discussed. For those who say Bradley isn't a big enough name? Yawn. If Pacquiao is the superstar he is made out to be, and he is, he should be able to sell with a fighter of Bradley's quality. Hell, Oscar De La Hoya once did big business with an ancient Yori Boy Campas...Gennady Golovkin-Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam would be a solid Middleweight fight. Any clash of the top ten would be. It's weird though. The whole class seems stuck with everyone wanting one fight but not another. Where is the man who says he can lick them all? Find him please…Is Showtime Haymon-izing? Showtime allegedly turning down a surefire battle between Lucian Bute and Carl Froch stinks. Would anyone be surprised if we get Bute-Andre Dirrell instead?

Most famous of Italian opera composers, writer of some its most familiar melodies – "La donna è mobile" (Rigoletto) the Brindisi in La traviata and the "Anvil" chorus from Il Trovatore, parodied in A Night at the Opera – Giuseppe Verdi was born 10 October 1813 at Romcole, near Busseto in the Duchy of Parma, and died in Milan 27 January 1901. He began opera-writing in 1836 in Busseto. The first opera by which he became known, Oberto, conte di San Bonifacio, was put on at Milan, 1839, followed by Un giorno de regno (1840), his only comedy until Falstaff (Milan 1893).

Hi Allan,
We will post the 2014 boards very soon, including our (somewhat arbitrary) ratings for
A. Glide
B. Tracking
C. Maneuverability
D. Stability
At 170 this board should have enough volume and be plenty stable for you (assuming that you are already an experienced paddler, we don't recommend this as a entry level board) and will work great in up to head high waves.
I'm interested in the 8'6" x 32 .
I weigh 170, will it float me okay and how do you rate the:
A. Glide
B. Tracking
C. Maneuverability
D. Glide
Allan Tamshen
Hi Adrian,
You can use the 8'8 Octane with
1) a single center fin- this will be fastest but you will have more control in steep turn with side fins
2) 2+1 setup: a center fin with two smaller side fins (this is the setup that is included with the purchase)
3) thruster setup: three fins about the same size (we recommend 4.75")
4) A quad fin setup
We can help you find the right fin setup at our shop. You will find that fins can really change how a board handles.
For more information on fin setups, visit this blog positing and video:

ABC7 TRAFFIC: Operative phrase: "road spray." It'll be everywhere, quite obviously. That, and soupy, misty fog. Just ducky. Nothing major to report yet, but check @DaybreakSkip on Twitter for breaking updates. Here's the traffic flow map: http://tbd.ly/95jmWZ
ABC7 WEATHER: More of the lame same. Flooding remains a big concern, especially in Alexandria's Old Town and parts of Montgomery County. Expect a milder day with highs in the mid to upper 70s. http://wj.la/72e8x6
HE'S A MOVER: And the numbers prove it. "Aided by strong tea party support, Texas Gov. Rick Perry has surged in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, pushing former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney into second place and significantly diminishing the once-rising star of Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.), according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll." http://wapo.st/pL5FZv
BUT WILL HE JOIN GOP DEBATE TONIGHT?: Unclear, per the AP, "Perry, who was in Texas dealing with one of the most destructive wildfire outbreaks in the state's history, left open the possibility that he may skip the debate. Asked whether he would have time to prepare even if he does attend, Perry said, "We'll deal with that when it comes up." http://apne.ws/nqCoLv
TEXAS INFERNO: The monster fire rages on, per the Houston Chronicle, "Fed by wind and parched vegetation, wildfires continued to rage Tuesday through Central Texas, where an out-of-control blaze claimed two lives and 550 homes, and in the Magnolia area, where officials ordered the evacuation of more than 4,000 households." http://bit.ly/pK8VHL
HE PROMISED!: Maybe his fingers were crossed behind his back, per the New York Times, "Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta is supporting a plan that would keep 3,000 to 4,000 American troops in Iraq after a deadline for their withdrawal at year's end, but only to continue training security forces there, a senior military official said on Tuesday. The recommendation would break a longstanding pledge by President Obama to withdraw all American forces from Iraq by the deadline." http://nyti.ms/pfg1Op
THE SKINNY: Details on a proposed New Deal, per the L.A. Times, "President Obama on Thursday will roll out a jobs package that strives to lift the ailing economy through $300 billion worth of tax credits, school renovation projects, job training for the unemployed and a program to prevent teacher layoffs, according to a person familiar with the administration's plans." http://lat.ms/oq8OH0
WHAT TO DO ABOUT. . .: Moving stairs that don't move, per the Post, "With one in six escalators now under repair, the Metro system plans to augment its own workforce with an outside contractor to speed work on 74 Orange Line escalators and elevators, General Manager Richard Sarles said Tuesday. Officials at the transit agency are expected to make a presentation on Thursday to Metro's board of directors on their plan to hire an outside contractor to do preventive maintenance on 54 escalators and 20 elevators on the Orange Line from Rosslyn to Vienna." http://wapo.st/nkeiZd
SO WHO PAYS?: Per the City Paper, "Anybody remember that whole fracas involving Council Chairman Kwame "Fully Loaded" Brown and his Lincoln Navigators? Well, (Loose Lips) realized the other day that we never found out what the final tally was for how much the chairman's brief flirtation with luxury SUVs was going to cost. . . The cost to break the lease: a hefty $12,450.23." http://bit.ly/qOVCPE
RELIEF: One way to beat congestion, per ARLnow, "Shuttle buses are now running between the Pentagon and the National Guard Readiness Center (Arlington Hall), in a move that officials hope will help alleviate some of the traffic burden in the Barcroft neighborhood." http://bit.ly/r9nuxA

Bulgarian Archaeologists Preserve Skeleton of '1st European Man'
The 8000-year-old skeleton of a young man found near the village of Ohoden has been taken to the Regional History Museum in Vratsa.
The skeleton, already dubbed by the Bulgarian media as "the first European", was discovered recently by archaeologist Georgi Ganetsovski who specializes in paleolithic settlements. It belonged to a 35-year-old man with a height of 165 cm.
This is the fourth 800-year-old skeleton found in the Valoga region near Ohoden, and the first one belonging to a man.
"We are uncovering a so far unknown prehistoric culture in Northwest Bulgaria which corresponds to the settlements in today's Serbia along the Morava River. One of the aims of our studies is to test the theory about the so called "Danube Road" of the spreading of the first settlements with economic production," archaeologist Ganetsovski said.
He has studied the site near Ohoden since 2004 when he discovered the skeleton of a woman that was named Todorka, and which can be seen in the museum in Vratsa.
The latest skeleton has been given the Bulgarian name Hristo. It was transferred fully preserved to the museum using a special technology, and is yet to be studied through DNA and other tests.
"We already have found four individuals here, and we will have to sacrifice one tooth from each of them for the DNA tests. I do feel concerned because by excavating these graves, I am disturbing their resting in peace," Ganetsovski declared. His current expedition will last till the end of July.

Automatic (Pointer Sisters song)
|Single by The Pointer Sisters
|from the album Break Out
|Contemporary R&B, synthrock
|Brock Walsh, Mark Goldenberg
|Brock Walsh, Richard Perry
|The Pointer Sisters singles chronology
"Automatic" is a song by the American vocal group Pointer Sisters, released on the Planet label in 1984 as the second single from their multi-platinum landmark album Break Out. "Automatic" reached the Top 5 of Billboard's pop chart and became one of the Pointers' signature tunes. Eventually, three other singles from Break Out reached the Top 10 consecutively.
The Pointer Sisters version[edit]
According to Ruth Pointer of the Pointer Sisters, "Automatic" was the final song chosen for Breakout: "We were taking a break from recording in the office of Jim Tract, who was Richard Perry's right-hand man, and Jim mentioned that he had a stash of tapes we might want to listen to [while on] a breather...We all sat up straight when we first heard ['Automatic'] and told Richard we wanted to include it on the album. 'Okay', he said 'But who would sing the low part?' 'Are you kidding me?' I said, 'I'll do the low part!'" [1]
Although Break Out largely comprised dance tracks, its lead single was the ballad "I Need You" chosen by producer Richard Perry in hopes of reinforcing the Pointer Sisters presence at R&B radio: the dance track "Jump (for My Love)" was intended as the second single but the heavy airplay afforded "Automatic" as an album cut by both dance clubs and radio stations caused the substitution of "Automatic" for "Jump..." as the second single release from Break Out, although "Jump..." would become the most successful US single off Break Out when it became the album's third single.[2] The first Top 40 hit to feature Ruth Pointer's distinctive contralto on lead, "Automatic" reached #5 on the Hot 100 in Billboard in April 1984, also charting on the magazine's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Dance Club Play rankings, its #2 R&B chart peak making "Automatic" the highest charting R&B hit by the Pointer Sisters as a trio (in their original four-woman format the Pointer Sisters did score an R&B #1 hit with "How Long (Betcha' Got a Chick on the Side)").
In the British Isles "Automatic" would afford the Pointer Sisters their alltime biggest hit spending two weeks at #2 on the UK chart in May 1984 when it also reached #1 in Ireland. "Automatic" also afforded the Pointer Sisters Top Ten success in Belgium (#5 on the Flemish chart), the Netherlands (#9), and New Zealand (#8): in Australia "Automatic" reached a chart peak of #15. The B-side of "Automatic" was "Nightline" featuring June Pointer on lead: "Nightline was also originally featured on Break Out but was dropped from later pressings of the album to allow for the inclusion of the remix of "I'm So Excited".

Ultra Naté cover[edit]
|Single by Ultra Naté
|from the album Grime, Silk, & Thunder
|Tommy Boy Entertainment
|Brock Walsh, Mark Goldenberg
|Ultra Naté singles chronology
Ultra Naté covered "Automatic" and released it as the third single from her album Grime, Silk, & Thunder. Her version topped the US dance chart, hitting number one in the issue dated April 28, 2007. This version appeared briefly in a nightclub scene of Looking: The Movie in 2016.
Music video[edit]
The music video for "Automatic" was directed by Karl Giant.[6] Eric Henderson from Slant Magazine commented of the music video's beginning: "For the first two or three minutes, it's nothing if not a stalwart representation of your standard gay-bar video-jukebox fixture." Ultra Naté is later shown wearing a rhinestone-studded liquid Lycra while two men, apparently nude, watch her on their computers.[7] Then Naté appears in a blow-up doll costume,[6] which Henderson believed "sends the entire video into legitimately weird territory, as though David Meyers were asked to direct a video for Nine Inch Nails."[7]
