If you're a Canadian resident and you own a new first, second or third-generation iPod you may be entitled to a small credit from Apple Canada. Well, that is if you purchased your iPod before June 24, 2004. The credit comes as the result of a proposed settlement of two lawsuits, as reported by The Gazette.
Both lawsuits claimed that the rechargeable battery included with the iPod would drop from the eight hours of use during the first year of ownership to only three hours of use between charges in the second year. The first lawsuit was filed by Ines Lenzi of Montreal. The second was filed by Bardley Waddell in Toronto. Waddell's lawsuit had received class-action certification.
Don't expect a huge windfall from Apple if you are one of the covered iPod owners. You'll simply receive a US$45 credit which you can use at Apple's online store. Information regarding how to claim the credit can be found at www.appleipodsettlement.com.
Hey, US$45 is better than nothing. Unfortunately, like many lawsuits of this type, the big winner was the lawyers who got their legal fees covered by Apple. I would tell those who claim the credit not to spend all their money in one place, but because it's only a credit at the Apple store it seems they will have little choice.

Cooking Tip: Let the kids stir the sauce and put the toppings on the sandwiches.
Variation: The sauce for this sandwich is my version of the classic Greek sauce tzatziki. I find the cucumber seeds refreshing, but you can certainly remove them if you prefer. Double the recipe if you like a lot of sauce.
Variation: Substitute a generous 1/3 cup of bottled Greek salad dressing for the marinade if you are truly pressed for time.
Variation: Simply cut the sandwich recipe in half for two of you. Use the extra sauce as a dip.

I am about to receive my second steroid injection; this time by ultrasound guidance; for suspected trochanteric bursitis. The first one 3 months ago did nothing at all. My specialist ordered a second MRI which I understand is not that conclusive. The pain has been waking me up for the past 4 months despite the use of analgesia and more recently sleeping tablets. To make the issue more complex my physio disagrees with the diagnosis; she believes that it is a spinal problem after physical assessment; more specifically L2.
My actual site of the pain is not according to my physio in the area expected. I am forcing myself to walk (as not been advised not to) at least an hour every day by the Nordic walking method. Nordic walking method is helpful for my performance and I hope will keep me mobile.
It is also very good for the state of your mind!
I would like to say how depressing chronic pain is as well as the fact that the healthcare professionals do not work as a team. (My physio coantacted the musculo-skeletal specialist but he just commented that the most common cause for my case is trochanteric bursitis.I think his comment speaks volumes of 'potluck diagnosis'.
Are Ultrasound-Guided Injections Effective for Trochanteric Bursitis?
Are Ultrasound-Guided Injections Effective for Trochanteric Bursitis?

The site of injection might determine whether a patient responds.
- Allan S. Brett, MD
We often assume that bursitis is the cause of pain and tenderness over the greater trochanter of the hip. Patients with greater trochanteric pain syndrome often receive corticosteroid injections, not necessarily guided by imaging. However, the relevant anatomy is complex: Several different bursae are present, and the anatomy varies from person to person.
In this retrospective single-site study, researchers in Wisconsin reviewed records of 65 patients who received ultrasound-guided trochanteric corticosteroid injections and who returned pre- and postinjection pain questionnaires. Injections were initiated at the site of maximal tenderness in all patients, but the ultimate location of the needle tip was the greater trochanteric bursa (i.e., deep subgluteus maximus bursa) in 41 patients and into the subgluteus medius bursa in 24 patients. Location of the needle tip was at the discretion of injecting radiologists; no anatomic ultrasound findings distinguished between the two groups. Among patients who received injections into the greater trochanteric bursa, pain improved significantly at 14 days (median improvement, 3 points on a 10-point visual analog scale; P<0.01). In contrast, median improvement was 0 among those who received injections into the subgluteus medius bursa.
This study's flaws include nonrandomized assignment of injection sites and exclusion of an unspecified number of patients who did not return surveys. Nevertheless, the findings might explain why response to steroid injections is so variable in clinical practice. Although these injections are easily done in primary care settings, I believe that we should consider referring selected patients for ultrasound-guided injections, if a specialist who is familiar with these landmarks is available. A nice review of greater trochanter anatomy is available online free of charge (Anesth Analg 2009; 108:1662).

I agree with both Dr.s Holland and McCormick, but for those few unsuccessful procedures it may prove useful to refer the patient to a specialist for a second shot under Us guidance (so I agree also with Dr Brett..); of course the patient should be accurately informed of the imperfect nature of the medical gestures...
With a little experience, the trochanteric bursa is easily palpated and injected. The addition of a local anesthetic indicates immediately if the medication is in the proper area. Yes, lets all try to keep the cost of medical care within reason.
Had hip injection with ultrasound. Result pleasant but only lasted five days. Actual problem was bone on bone arthritis which ultimately required hip replacement. Had spine injection years later. Bloody useless. Actual problem spondelitholesis (my spelling lacks). Overall on average you would find injections not cost effective, though perhaps occasionally offer pleasant results. Very expensive and not often reimbursed.
This is yet another example of utilizing the expensive specialist or specialty for a rather common and 90% treatable problem....in the FP's OFFICE . One wonders why medical care is so expensive in the USA.

Having trouble accessing your bank's website or mobile banking tools lately? You're not alone.
Millions of bank customers have been encountering error screens when trying to check their balances, make transfers and do other banking business thanks to a series of cyber attacks on banking giants Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citi and now U.S. Bank. As of now, all those sites are back up again, but the series of attacks is probably not over yet.
From E. Scott Reckard at the Los Angeles Times:
A day of disruptions in Wells Fargo & Co.'s electronic banking operations apparently was the latest in a series of cyber attacks that disrupted online operations at Bank of America Corp., Citigroup Inc. and JPMorgan Chase.
A computer security expert blamed massive denial of service attacks, in which perpetrators overwhelm computer servers with communications demands, causing networks to seize up or slow down.
In a posting at Pastebin.com, a group calling itself the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters claimed responsibility for last week's outages at Bank of America, Citi, and JPMorgan before hitting Wells Fargo. It said it would attack U.S. Bancorp on Wednesday and PNC Financial Services Thursday.
The notes on Pastebin also portray the attacks as a response to the inflammatory video about the Prophet Mohammed that provoked demonstrations throughout the world.
As Reckard notes, if the posts are to be believed, then PNC Customers will likely experience disruptions Thursday. If that's your bank, you might want to get any business with your accounts there done today.
So, you might be thinking to yourself, how do attacks like this manage to bring down the websites of some of the most powerful financial institutions on the planet? The answer, says Tim Rohrbaugh, chief information security officer at Intersections Inc., is that banks are simply outnumbered.
As the Los Angeles Times article notes, the type of attacks being perpetrated here are known as "distributed denial of service," or DDoS, attacks. To carry out a DDoS attack, hackers activate networks of computers all over the world that have been compromised by special malware. Those networks, called botnets, basically flood the target site with "clicks" -- so many clicks that the site's servers, or the connection it uses to carry its site out to consumers, are compromised.
The effect, Rohrbaugh says, is similar to what would happen if you barricaded a brick-and-mortar bank so customers couldn't come in.
The outages caused by DDoS attacks can be extremely disruptive, especially if you have urgent business to transact with a bank or that bank doesn't have brick-and-mortar locations. The good news is they don't, in and of themselves, lead to any data from the site being compromised, just as barricading the front of a bank wouldn't lead to the contents of the safe spilling out into the street.
However, DDoS attacks can be used as a "diversion" to attack other areas of a site, says Rohrbaugh. As of yet, none of the banks have reported anything like that, but Rohrbaugh says there's probably more to this story.
DDoS attacks can be expensive because, oftentimes, botnets used in such attacks are identified and blocked by authorities.
"When you attain those, somebody's paying for that," Rohrbaugh says. "People are actually getting compensated for compromising computers, and so to give those up, just for this attack, usually there has to be some gain from it, and usually just a political statement's not just the only goal."
If you find these types of attacks distasteful, there is something you can do to stop it, Rohrbaugh says: Make sure your own computer is free of viruses and malware. One way to do that, he says, is make sure your virus and malware protection software is up to date.
Doing so has personal benefits as well, he says. Computers compromised by botnets are also usually mined for valuable personal information, and may be blocked by authorities who observe attacks originating from their IP addresses, a computer's "home address" on the Web.
What do you think? Is this really the work of Islamic activists? What do they hope to gain? Have you noticed a disruption in your service?

A fire broke out at a mobile home late Monday morning, displacing an elderly couple.
Cleveland County and Bethlehem volunteer fire departments responded to a call about a mobile home fire, located at 209 Chesterfield Drive, Monday at 11:28 a.m., according to Steve Hamrick, chief of the Cleveland County Volunteer Fire Department.
�There is moderate to heavy damage, it�s non-liveable,� Hamrick said.
The home sustained heavy fire damage at one end of the mobile home and significant smoke damage throughout, Hamrick added.
The fire started from a light switch in the bathroom area, according to the fire marshal�s office.
The residents, Richard and Brenda Roper, said fire came out of the switch when it was turned on, Hamrick said.
�The couple moved outside to the porch, when they went back in and found it on fire,� he said.
The Roper made it out of the home safely.
Richard was helped off the porch and away from the home by a neighbor, Hamrick said.
Red Cross assisted the displaced couple, Hamrick said.

A GRIEVING woman yesterday said she forgives a nurse whose mistake led to her new-born baby dying after being fed a day's worth of food in just one hour.
An inquest into the death of seven-dayold Maisie Faith Waters finished in Bristol on Tuesday, with her heartbroken mother Laura Bennett, 23, saying she bears no grudge towards nurse Martyn Woods.
She said: "He came up to us and apologised (after the inquest), which took a lot of courage. At first I was bitter, but now I know his account, I know he didn't do it intentionally, he just made a mistake, a big mistake.
"We'll never bring Maisie back and while it's 10 times worse for us, he's got to live with it for the rest of his life."
The inquest at Flax Bourton heard Maisie died while being treated at Bristol Royal Hospital for Children after being born with a congenital heart defect on August 16 last year.
Ms Bennett, from Willowtown, Ebbw Vale, said she prayed for Maisie every day after an atrioventricular septal defect, which meant the walls of heart were missing, was picked up on the 20- week scan.
She and partner Ryan Waters, 24, did not prepare a room for Maisie, as they worried about her survival chances.
However, a planned Caesarian-section at St Michael's Hospital, Bristol, went well, with Maisie born a relatively healthy 5lb 6oz and able to breathe unaided, before being placed on a ventilator.
She was transferred to the city's children's hospital as she waited for open heart surgery in Birmingham.
Doctors told the couple Maisie had a 75 per cent chance of getting through that operation, with Ms Bennett saying: "I kept looking at her thinking 'Is she really mine?' "I was so happy, Maisie was in an incubator, but was fine.
"They said there were no guarantees she would have got through the operation, but she was strong and I think she would have. All I wanted was to give her a chance."
On August 22, the parents left Maisie's side to allow nurses room to feed her and after they returned, they realised something was wrong, when they saw doctors starting to rush around.
Ms Bennett added: "We were taken to a quiet room and didn't know what was going on.
"A doctor then came in and said they had been doing CPR for 45 minutes and there was nothing more they could do.
"I was numb, it was like I wasn't there and looking in on someone else's life.
"They asked if we wanted to be there when she passed away, but I couldn't watch her die."
The couple were allowed to hold Maisie and say goodbye.
They were given a memory box by nurses, which included a lock of her hair and then arranged a packed funeral back home at Ebbw Vale.
Now, over a year later, Ms Bennett is still coming to terms with it, saying: "I see other people pushing prams and think it should be me.
"We were robbed of a daughter, granddaughter and great-granddaughter.
"Hopefully they've learnt lessons and nobody else will have to go through this.
But, it shouldn't have taken my daughter dying for measures to be brought in."
Ms Bennett said the inquest gave her the answers she needed, but she would talk to her solicitor before considering taking any civil action.
A spokeswoman for the University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust said: "On behalf of the Trust, I'm deeply sorry for the human error that led to the tragic death of Miasie Waters and our thoughts are with her family at this very difficult time.
Immediately following Maisie's death, the Trust conducted an indepth investigation to ensure human error like this cannot reoccur.
All actions arising from these investigations have been completed or are ongoing."
Coroner told mistake led to a fatal dose
THE inquest heard Maisie died after her intravenous feeding machine was wrongly programmed to dispense 24-hours feed in 60 minutes.
It required a nurse to programme how much of a formula called Total Parental Nutrition (TPN) should be given to Maisie on an hourly and daily basis.
But when nurse Martyn Woods re-configured the machine, he mistakenly entered the daily dose of 210ml under the hourly rate, the inquest was told.
As a result, she was given 28 times the 7.5ml she should have received in one hour.
Mr Woods said he believed the mistake happened after the machine beeped at him, which he thought indicated he needed to re-enter the 24-hour dosage.
Maisie went into cardiac arrest with doctors unable to revive her.
Coroner Maria Voisin returned a narrative verdict which said: "Maisie was a patient in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit.
She was born with a heart condition which meant she required surgery.
"On August 22 she died when she was erroneously over infused with TPN."
She added that the hospital had carried out an immediate review of her death and changes have now been made to procedures.

Site Description
Griffin Pipe Products Company is located at 1100 West Front Street in Florence, New Jersey. The 293-acre Griffin Pipe Products Company site has been operating as a foundry since the early 1900's, when it was known as the Florence Pipe and Foundry Company. Griffin Pipe Products acquired the facility in 1963 to make ductile iron pipe from scrap material, iron, coke and various alloy components. Land surrounding the facility is used primarily for industrial purposes, with some residential and agricultural use nearby.
Potential Threats and Contaminants
The company used to routinely place lead and cadmium-containing sludge from its manufacturing processes into an unlined landfill located on the property. Over time, the sludge and other wastes placed in the landfill released their contaminants into the soil and eventually into the groundwater under the site.
Cleanup Approach and Progress
In the mid-1980's, Griffin started to treat the sludge before disposing of it in the landfill. The portion of the landfill that had received lead and cadmium-containing sludge was closed in 1994 using a landfill cover system that meets EPA and New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) requirements. The rest of the landfill was closed in 1998 using a similar cover system. EPA and NJDEP required Griffin to install a series of monitoring wells at the boundary of the landfill to determine the level of contaminants in the groundwater and whether they have spread beyond the landfill boundary.
Data from the monitoring wells have shown that the contamination is not spreading but is contained within the landfill area and that the levels of lead and cadmium in the groundwater are relatively low and do not exceed amounts considered unacceptable by NJDEP. The data have also shown that the contaminant levels are not increasing due to the fact that lead and cadmium do not move readily in groundwater and because the contaminants are very likely being adsorbed onto (stuck to) particles of soil.
Groundwater monitoring at the Griffin site will continue until at least 2025. If at any time the contamination from the landfill is found to be increasing in concentration or spreading, EPA and NJDEP might require that the contaminants be removed from the groundwater. However, since the contamination appears to be stable and contained within the landfill area, long-term maintenance of the landfill cover and groundwater monitoring are all that are currently required.

The apartment facilities: Shearwater is a small exclusive luxury development on a prestigious site right on the waterfront on Pier Road right beside Kinsale yacht club and between Acton's hotel and fishy fishy. Shearwater is Kinsale's top of the range of accommodation, overlooking the marina and myriad of yachts and yachting lifestyle. There is an airiness, lightness and brightness feel. It is impossible to capture on camera the height of the main room ceiling with its airy velux windows but it is delightful. On the ground floor of Shearwater is a cafe wine bar so if you don't want even to cook breakfast on your holiday you can pop down to Vista for your croissants and cappuccino, otherwise take them back up up and relax with your newspaper in the little Breton boys casual dining section of the kitchen.

Kinsale is known world wide as Ireland's gourmet capital. It is a stunningly pretty little town which was visited by the Spanish Armada in the 1600's and its narrow streets bear evidence to this. They are filled with interesting little shops, cafes, galleries, bars and restaurants. Life is relaxed in Kinsale with its other major attraction being the sea and marina as well as the old head golf club and the very interesting Charles Fort. There are coves and beaches within a few minutes drive and deep sea fishing is also very popular. It is a colourful cosmopolitan spot. It is just 15 miles from cork city and is the gateway to west cork for day trips along the coast to Glandore, Clonakilty, Killarney, Kenmare before returning to one of the super restaurants in Kinsale for dinner. . Shearwater is right in the heart of Kinsale itself- not looking across the harbour at it with a hefty walk up the aptly named 'Breakheart Hill' home.
Other Activities: Gourmet Restaurants all year round plus Kinsale Arts Festival in July and Gourmet Festival in October. Sailing Courses for children in Kinsale Y.C.
Golf: There are dozens of championship Golf Courses in South West Ireland. Within a few minutes there is Kinsale Golf Club as well as the world renowned Old Head of Kinsale Golf Club. You won't have to fly in and out in your helicopter to play the Old Head of Kinsale because you will be virtually on site. Drive out further to Fota Island Golf Club, there are just so many courses to play for Ireland as well know is a golfer's paradise. We are golfers ourselves so are fully aware of its attractions!
The apartment is brilliant! As a base to explore Kinsale and the surrounding areas this apartment is ideal. Everything was very professionally and courteously arranged by Mary and all her tips on places to eat, visit and explore were second to none. If you are looking to stay in Kinsale this is the place to be.
We will definitely be back!!
As someone who spent much of her childhood in Kinsale, I enjoyed the central location, making it easy to go out at night to restaurants and pubs and not have to drive. The Kinsale Yoga Centre is around the corner, so for a yogi like me, that was a plus! The bedrooms are on entrance floor and have great beds with beautiful, fluffy duvets. The rooms are bright and have lovely decor. The two bathrooms are also on this level. These are functional, have no windows, and have lighting that is not great. Showers are small and pose a challenge to tall or broad people. The upstairs living room/dining room and kitchen is one space with skylights and a big window with a slice of harbor view. Great leather couches, a beautiful wooden dining room table, and a well-equipped modern kitchen. Mary, the owner, was a delight to work with. Everything was very clean and organized. Having a designated parking space in busy, crowded Kinsale is a bonus. The stairs up to the condo and within the condo would not make this a good choice for anyone with mobility issues. Ask for an extra set of keys if you are not all planning to be together every minute of the day. I would give this place 5 stars if the bathrooms were updated. We loved our stay and appreciate the hospitality Mary extended.
The property was clean and spacious, close to all the action, town centre, pubs, restaurants and coffee shops.
We had a very nice stay in Kinsale . We stayed 10 days First of all because the accomodation was just perfect . A very nice view as well . Very clean and convenient . It is a very silent flat near all the facilities and nearby very good restaurants ; Mary the owner is very organised too . Kinsale is a very nice place to stay to travel around south of Ireland . We suggest a very nice and good pub where you can have very good lunch or dinner : The Speckled Door on the way to Old Head . With a panoramic view of the bay of kinsale . the staff is just very nice like most Irish people . We keep a very pleasant souvenir of Shearwater and Ireland .
A french family .
We just got back to the US and could not be happier when reflecting on a great vacation at Shearwater. Reviews do it justice: You can expect Mary to deliver on what is written. She sent us detailed instructions, recommendations, and everything we needed to land in Kinsale. The restaurants and galleries were all great and the people welcoming and fabulous. The Vista restaurant directly downstairs was such a plus and so convenient. Having the parking spot was a real plus since it is a busy area. We used this location as a base for a week, and travelled to the Dingle and Beara Penninsula's.
The accomodations were convenient to everything and stocked with essentials. Short of getting Ireland to drive on the correct side of the road, Mary did everything to ensure our stay was flawless. I would recommend this spot, and would love to come back again.

A:Sorry but we do not ship our blinds outside of the lower 48 United States. We only offer shipping via FedEx and UPS and do not ship our window blinds through the USPS therefore we cannot ship to the U.S. territory of Guam.
At Blinds Chalet we offer free shipping on each of window blinds.

Pianist Benjamin Grosvenor first grabbed the public's attention when he was eleven, and won the BBC's Young Musician of the Year competition. (That was in 2004, so you can do the math to find out his current age.) Today, he performs around the world and played at the opening concert of last year's BBC Proms.
Like the performers whom you hear in Minnesota Varsity, Benjamin Grosvenor ("GROVE-ner") stands out--not just because he's young, but because of his thoughtful, accomplished musicianship.
He recently signed with the Decca label, making him the first British pianist to do so in almost sixty years. On his brand-new Decca disc, he plays pieces by Chopin, Liszt, and Ravel. The repertoire includes, among other pieces, Chopin's Scherzos and Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit, which many a Minnesotan has seen in its mural version in downtown Minneapolis.

Lipscomb, Nashville State partner on dual admission program
Lipscomb University and Nashville State Community College (NSCC) are partnering to offer a dual admission program that helps give community college students a lower-cost option for completing a four-year degree. Lipscomb is the only private college in Tennessee making this available to community college students.
Nashville State students can now apply for joint admission to both institutions. If admitted, individuals are students at both institutions at the same time, completing an associates degree at Nashville State and then transferring to Lipscomb with the right credits and without the need to apply for admission. To complete their education
"This initiative supports the emphasis placed on increasing community college completion rates by the state of Tennessee and President Obama," said Aaron Burtch, director of transfer recruiting at Lipscomb. "With the student being enrolled in both places, it allows us to monitor the student's academic progress together to help ensure they are on track to continue their education after they complete their associates degree at Nashville State. We are making a concerted effort to make the transition as smooth as possible for the student."
The program helps provide a pathway for students who want to complete a bachelor's degree and gives Lipscomb and NSCC officials the opportunity to provide guidance about issues such as how to maintain a good grade point average (GPA) and stay on track for possible scholarships
"The program gives community college students something to look forward to once they complete their associates degree. With this partnership they can move on to work on a bachelor's degree and not have to worry about credits transferring and other issues like that. This gives them a peace of mind and a sense of accomplishment and hope. It gives them more education options and helps them know that a private school education is attainable," said Aleece Bell, NSCC Title III student support specialist.
Lipscomb is one of only three universities in the state, including Tennessee State University and Middle Tennessee State University — and the only private institution — to offer a dual admission program for community college students. Burtch said the university is working on similar agreements with all 13 Tennessee Board of Regents community colleges.
Students who a part of the dual admission program chose from the majors offered and have an academic plan to make sure they are taking the courses that will keep students on track to complete their degree, said Burtch.
Lipscomb began taking applications this fall. To date, two students have been admitted as part of the program. The NSCC students will be on the Lipscomb campus beginning in fall 2013.
Several scholarship opportunities are available for community college students. Among these are the Transfer Trustees Scholarship, which provides two full tuition scholarships for NSCC graduates; the Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship, a $10,000 scholarship for students who are members of this organization who have completed the associates degree and maintain a 3.5 GPA??.; and the Community College Deans Scholarship, for students who have a 3.5. g.p.a. and 30 or more transferrable hours.
In addition, Lipscomb is also part of the Tennessee Transfer Pathways Program announced today by the Tennessee Independent Colleges and Universities Association (TICUA). The program is for students who follow the pathways developed by the state for Tennessee community college graduates to transfer to four-year universities for the state.
For more information about the dual admission program, contact Burtch at email@example.com or 615.966.6135.

Pythagorean Baseball
Anybody who has read this blog for a while knows that I don't rely too heavily on stats. I'm into traditional stats and like to read about stats and sabermetrics and the like but I think people these days tend to over analyze things based on stats. So it was kind of odd for me to be reading Dayn Perry's "Winners: How Good Baseball Teams Become Great Ones (And It's Not the Way You Think)". This is an excellent book that does a statistical analysis of winning teams since the early 1980s and, based on the results, concludes what qualities it takes to be a winning team.
One of the stats touched upon very late in the book is a Bill James creation called Pythagorean Method. (It takes it's name from geometry's Pythagorean Theorem since it's notation is similar.) This method attempts to predict a teams winning percentage based on the runs they score and the runs they allow. The formula for this stat is as follows:
Runs Scored2/(Runs Scored2+Runs Allowed2)= Winning Pct.
I was curious to see how this stat played itself out in reality so I did a quick analysis of the Mets, Phillies and Braves to see how they were doing based on this statistic. The results are as follows:
Team Runs
W L Pct. Mets 343 275 .609 41 23 .641 Phillies 324 326 .497 33 32 .508 Braves 330 347 .475 30 36 .455
The theory goes that if a teams actual win percentage is above their Pythagorean win percentage then they are playing above expectations. If it's below then thay are playing under their expectations. So, according to this, the Mets are playing above expectations, the Braves are playing below expectations and the Phillies are playing close to expected (but slightly below). That would mean that according to Pythagorean Method this race will tighten up a bit. It'll be interesting to see how Pythagorean Method predicts what will happen.
Just for fun I plugged the Yankees into this formula and compared to the Mets.
Team Runs
W L Pct. Mets 343 275 .609 41 23 .641 Yankees 366 294 .608 37 26 .587
According to this the Mets and Yankees should have identical records but the Yankees have been under performing. Interesting. Stay tuned.

[…] With each Major League team having played over 100 games thus far this season I felt like now would be a good time to revisit the discussion on Pythagorean Method that I started in June. Back then the teams had played over 60 games. With about 40 more games upnder their belts let's see if the theory holds true. […]
[…] at these teams had me thinking about how they would fair in Pythagorean terms. I've written before about Pythagorean Method, the Bill James creation that tries to predict winning percentage based on […]

The companies said on Monday that they would jointly explore and develop IMX's Mt Woods tenements in SA, which abut tenements held by OZ Minerals.
As part of the deal, OZ Minerals will take up 26,150,000 IMX shares at 38.5¢ each, which the miner said represented a 25 per cent premium to the 30-day volume weighted average price of the stock prior to the announcement.
The placement will inject $10.1 million into IXR, with OZ Minerals holding 13 per cent of the company as a result.
IXR shares closed on Friday at 33¢. OZ Minerals closed at $1.18.
The announcement of the heads of agreement between the two companies leading into the joint venture comes as OZ Minerals prepares to conduct a briefing day on Monday, outlining its future strategy following the miner's sale of much of its assets to Chinese group Minmetals. The sale left OZ Minerals basically only with its flagship mine at Prominent Hill in SA.
The company said its strategy had "five key pillars, focusing primarily on copper, maximising potential from existing assets, building a project pipeline, investing in exploration and having disciplined capital management".
Announcing the heads of agreement with IXR, OZ Minerals said the company "considers the area surrounding the Prominent Hill copper-gold mine to be prospective for the discovery of similar types of deposits.
"As such, the tenements surrounding Prominent Hill are a high exploration priority," the company said.
IMX Managing Director, Duncan McBain, said IMX saw the proposed copper-gold Joint Venture as "a win-win situation that will result in a greatly increased level of exploration expenditure for copper-gold targets during the next five years."
"With IMX retaining the rights where iron ore is the dominant economic mineral, it means we are able to continue to expand our iron ore strategy in the Cairn Hill/Mt Woods area," Mr McBain said.
OZ Minerals managing director and chief executive Terry Burgess said the Joint Venture would allow exploration on the IMX tenements to be expedited.
"The proximity of the tenements to the existing Prominent Hill mine infrastructure greatly enhances the chance of an economic discovery," Mr Burgess said.

One thing I really like about it is I can use it as an extended gamut monitor for my photo work, and then quickly switch it to sRGB mode for software that isn't color managed. [a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190713\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
The sRGB switch isn't really providing you an sRGB display (it may match closer to an older such unit). There's no way to alter the actual chromaticity of the unit. And I don't believe when you do this you're getting a calibrated/profiled sRGB device (you can't calibrate it in this state).[{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
But that is not the point. I use the calibrated high gamut mode for my critical photo work and only go to sRGB mode for surfing the web, using other programs, etc.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190766\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
The other issue is the granularity of editing on a high gamut display that's been discussed here in the past. If you're working on very subtle imagery that falls within the sRGB gamut, setting this wide gamut display into "sRGB" doesn't solve that issue whereby the differences in deltaE between two Neighbor levels is still farther than on a true sRGB device.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190768\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
.... (And the NEC 2690 is just 8 bits as it the software.) ...[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190777\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
I haven't seen this as a problem and likely never will. I shoot mostly architectural interiors and exteriors. When editing images, I am just trying to get an overall nice look. There is no way I actually know exactly what the colors of the scene are once I leave.
I used to share a studio with a photographer who did exacting digital product photography. He had a prepress expert who would convert images to CMYK and then fine tune the colors by looking at the CMYK numbers and comparing them to the actual products. Any opinion on scRGB?[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190777\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
Apple are going lower and lower in display quality.As for Eizo,it's now pretty much pick and hope in their product line, some of the models are not that good, some are very good. Regarding the calibrators for those wide-gamut displays, if using a colorimeter, I think I would prefer to use a bundled instrument -which might be 'tuned', rather than the stock Xrite model.Edmund[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=187483\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
UNLESS the document is going out to that CMYK device, this is a pretty stupid idea! I don't know too many color geeks I respect who think we need yet another RGB working space. So scRGB is not anything to worry about, especially since its not installed by Adobe applications for one.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190789\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
Maybe Digital Dog can tell us if the Eye One colorometer is tuned for Just the NEC or did I buy another Eye One Display2 Colorometer for nothing?[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190807\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
Well of course it was going out to a CMYK device - a printed catalog. He was the color prepress guy.
As for the other person's statement abut the 12 bit LUT. This is not the same as controlling each color in 10 bits from the software through the graphics card to the monitor.
That would pretty much take care of any concern about high gamut monitors not having as fine a gradient for photos whose colors fall within the sRGB gamut. (Because all of those 16.7 million colors are spread out over a wider gamut in Adobe RGB they are a bit further apart.)
Then for anyone else working on an RGB master, its not at all useful. [a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190812\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
My point was that this color expert did his fine adjustments to the color numbers and not visually based on what he saw on the monitor. [a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190821\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
We don't have high bit support in the OS or applications. So this at least contains the high bit adjustments to the display, a start. [{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
My point was that this color expert did his fine adjustments to the color numbers and not visually based on what he saw on the monitor. So not everyone tries to match the monitor to the output.
But the 2690 monitor is not capable of 10 bit input from the graphics card even if the OS and applications support it.
> Regarding the calibrators for those wide-gamut displays, if using a colorimeter, I think I would prefer to use a bundled instrument -which might be 'tuned', rather than the stock Xrite model.That's one approach. Correct me if I'm wrong, but these 'tuned' colorimeters are generally OEMed versions that include custom calibration/correction matrices.EIZO (for their CG line AFAIK) and Quato include such custom calibration matrices for each supported (general purpose) measuring device in their software.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=187587\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
I read the NEC 2690 and Spectravision II manual pretty carefully and they advise when calibrating their wide gamut monitors to set the software to use "Factory Presets" for color calibration rather than have the sensor measure the color while calibrating. Apparently it is not capable of reading all of the colors that the high gamut monitors produce. So I guess it is just being used to measure the brightness values. Maybe they should have marked that a bit more clearly on the sensor or monitor itself.[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=190975\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]

"Bourne Ascendancy" by Lustbader. In this thrilling and absorbing new novel Jason Bourne is faced with an impossible mission. He has been hired to impersonate a high-level government minister at a political summit meeting in Qatar, shielding the minister from any assassination attempts. Suddenly, armed gunmen storm the room, killing everyone but Bourne. Their target, however, isn't the minister Bourne impersonates....it is Bourne himself.
"China Dolls" by Lisa See. It's 1938 in San Francisco: a world's fair is preparing to open on Treasure Island, a war is brewing overseas, and the city is alive with possibilities. Grace, Helen, and Ruby, three young women from very different backgrounds, meet by chance at the exclusive and glamorous Forbidden City nightclub. Grace Lee, an American-born Chinese girl, has fled the Midwest with nothing but heartache, talent, and a pair of dancing shoes. Helen Fong lives with her extended family in Chinatown, where her traditional parents insist that she guard her reputation like a piece of jade. The stunning Ruby Tom challenges the boundaries of convention at every turn with her defiant attitude and no-holds-barred ambition. The girls become fast friends, relying on one another through unexpected challenges and shifting fortunes. When their dark secrets are exposed and the invisible thread of fate binds them even tighter, they find the strength and resilience to reach for their dreams. But after the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor, paranoia and suspicion threaten to destroy their lives, and a shocking act of betrayal changes everything.
"Don't Look for Me" by L. Estleman. Amos Walker doesn't mean to walk into trouble. But sometimes it finds him, regardless. The missing woman has left a handwritten note that said, "Don't look for me." Any P.I. would take that as a challenge, especially when he found out that she'd left the same message once before, when having an illicit affair. But this time it's different. The trail leads Walker to an herbal remedies store, where the beautiful young clerk knows nothing about the dead body in the basement...or about any illegal activity that might be connected to the corpse. She is, however, interested in Walker's body, and he discovers he's interested in hers as well. But he can't tarry long, for the Mafia could be involved...or maybe there's a connection to the porno film studio where the missing woman's former maid now works. But when two Mossad agents accost Walker—and then are brutally killed—he realizes he's discovered a plot far darker run by someone more deadly than either the Detroit Mafia or a two-bit porn pusher.

Point Roberts, WA, United States, 2007/06/25 - Water-Stocks.com Investor Podcast with Neil Berlant, Manager of the PFW Water Fund, discusses the focus on vigorous Water Stock selection to ensure a portfolio of the best companies in the Water Industry.
Water-Stocks.com, an investor and industry portal for the water sector, presents an investor podcast with Neil Berlant, Senior Vice President of Crowell, Weedon & Co.s Water Group, to discuss the launching of a new water mutual fund in an effort to capitalize on the escalating growth of the water sector. The new fund will be called PFW Water Fund and will replace the current SBG Growth Fund trading under the symbol BEGAX.
The fund will concentrate primarily on companies focused on water, but will be a broadly diversified portfolio in that Mr. Berlant currently follows 130 public companies in the sector. The fund will be focused on owning the best of the companies that are participating in the water industry.
The definition of the industry that I embrace for the purpose of investing in the water sector includes all of the things that influence the quality or availability of water. From that perspective we will be looking at companies involved in purification and disinfection, we will be involved with companies in desalination, as well as companies that are active in the infrastructure area and of course water utilities, describes Neil Berlant.
He adds, This will be a fairly discriminating investment portfolio so that over time, through being vigorous in our selection of companies, we can deliver to our shareholders growth of capital.

Special for The Willits News
The Experimental Aircraft Association's restored B-17 bomber, "Aluminum Overcast," returns to the sky May 14 and 15 at the Ukiah Airport, one of more than 30 stops on the aircraft's 2013 "Experience History" national tour.
The Ukiah stop is sponsored by the EAA's Willits chapter.
The EAA's schedule includes 12 stops in five states between April 26 and June 3. The year-long tour continues into the summer, with the World War II "Flying Fortress" back "home" for the full week of EAA's annual AirVenture Celebration on July 29 through August 4 in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
"Aluminum Overcast" was built in 1945, but was delivered to the Army Air Corps too late to see active service during World War II. The B-17 was donated to the EAA Aviation Foundation in 1981 with the provision the aircraft be maintained in airworthy condition.
After being displayed at the EAA AirVenture Museum in Oshkosh for a decade, the airplane made its national tour debut in spring 1994.
Since EAA began touring the aircraft, tens of thousands of people have experienced the vintage warbird through its flights and ground tours.
The B-17 bomber is considered one of the greatest military airplanes ever built and one of the best-known aircraft types of World War II.
"For 20 years, EAA's national B-17 tour has been America's most popular way to learn about this unique aircraft in an up-close way," said EAA Chairman Jack Pelton.
"EAA is dedicated to preserving the spirit of aviation through these B-17 tours. It is more than the flight of a historic aircraft?it is an emotional connection to the men and women who were part of 'The Greatest Generation' and the sacrifices they made to benefit us in subsequent generations."
At each stop, flight "missions" are available, which allow people to experience "Aluminum Overcast" from the air.
For more information, including rates for flights and ground tours, visit Uwww.B17.orgUH or contact EAA's B-17 Tour Office at 800-359-6217.

Earlier this week, an anonymous source sent the website Gawker.com a thirty-minute video containing former WWE superstar Hulk Hogan having sex with a "mystery" woman (who also is reportedly the ex-wife of one of this friends). Gawker, in response, aired a description of the tape, along with a one-minute clip on their website (check out the original NSFW article here.)
Oh, and did we mention the creepiest part? In the middle of the clip, his cell rings only to play one of his daughter's singles as a ring-tone.
We here at CRAVE have seen the clip and are left flabbergasted, amazed, and a little anxious to want to see more. But more importantly, we were left asking ourselves – if we made a sex tape, would it be better than Hogan's? Hogan's features candles and an anonymous man cheering them on before coitus, but could you do better?
Luckily, we here at CRAVE have developed a little quiz to see if you would be a better porn star than Hulk Hogan.
1. Who is most likely to call your cell phone in the middle of sex?
a.) A family member.
b.) Your accountant.
c.) The husband of the chick you're banging.
d.) Lex Luger demanding a cage match.
2. What is the biggest distraction on your body that would affect your partner?
1.) A birthmark.
2. A little extra weight.
3.) Skin of a polish sausage left in the sun.
4.) All of the above, in addition to track marks left from anabolic steroids.
3. What is your "sexual finishing move?"
a.) Reach around.
b.) The "half-half-whole"
c.) Donkey punch.
d.) Big boot and leg drop to the uterus.
4. What do you consider to be the right "porno lighting?"
1. Night vision.
2. A couple of lamps. Nothing fancy.
3. Halogen bulbs only.
4. The heat of 2,000 pyrotechnics going off simultaneously.
5. What is the right music to "do it" to?
a.) Smooth jazz.
b.) Rock'n'roll.
c.) Anything that was cool in the 80s.
d.) Silence. The only soundtrack we need is the natural sound our bodies make of a swamp being wadded through.
6. Who does your ideal co-star look like?
a.) A hot blonde.
b.) A model.
c.) A famous actor or musician.
d.) Someone who shares your own genetic code.
7. Your sex tape leaks on the internet. What do you do to go into damage control?
a.) Close down your twitter.
b.) Threaten legal action.
c.) Deny it was you in the first place.
d.) Call in Degeneration X and the Nation of Domination to save you.
8. What is your biggest fear about making a porno?
a.) Embarrassment.
b.) Venereal disease.
c.) Blackmail.
d.) The world will see just how bad your bald spot really is.
9. Which of these porno titles is the most appealing to you?
a.) "F*ckamania."
b.) "Survivor Series with Boners."
c.) "Summer Slamming."
d.) "King of the Clit Ring."
If you answered (a) to most of these questions, you're a much better porn star than Hulk Hogan.
If you answered (b) to most of the questions, you're a slightly better porn star than Hulkster.
If you answered mostly (c), then you're a better porn star than Hulk, but a worse porn star than Andre the Giant.
If you answered mostly (d), congrats! You ARE HULK HOGAN!

WEDNESDAY, July 11 (HealthDay News) -- Prions responsible for bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) are detectable in the autonomic nervous system before the central nervous system, according to a study published online July 11 in The American Journal of Pathology.
Martin Kaatz, D.V.M., from the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute in Greifswald-Isle of Riems, Germany, and colleagues examined the route of infectious prions from the gut to the central nervous system in preclinical and clinical BSE-infected calves. Tissue samples were collected from the gut, central nervous system, and autonomic nervous system from animals that had been infected with BSE 16 to 44 months earlier.
The researchers found that pathological prions were present in the follicles and/or enteric nervous system of the distal ileum in almost all animals. Prions were also found in the sympathetic nervous system 16 months post-infection and the parasympathetic nervous system 20 months post-infection. The brain stem showed signs of infection at 24 months post-infection but prion accumulation was not observed until 28 months post-infection.
"In summary, our results decipher the centripetal spread of BSE prions along the autonomic nervous system to the central nervous system, starting already halfway in the incubation time," Kaatz and colleagues conclude.

Antioxidants and Free Radicals
Veterinarian Reviewed on February 23, 2012 by Paulina Nelega, RH
Posted in Uncategorized
Antioxidants and Free Radicals
Antioxidants' main function is to prevent our cells from getting damage. Whenever one cell gets damage it becomes open to cancer, and other different diseases, that's why we need to eat foods that is rich in antioxidant elements.
What is damaged cell? How does it occur? These damaged cells are also known as free radicals. This occurs when a group of atoms or an atom becomes free or it doesn't have partner or is not properly paired with the necessary electrons that it need. There are actually a proper number of electrons that a single atom needs. And if an atom is composed with the necessary electrons then it can function well inside our body, but if an atom doesn't have enough electrons, our cells become prone to some variety of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart diseases. This is the reason why we merely need antioxidants because it prevents us from acquiring free radicals.
We can find antioxidants in foods that are rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, and vitamin E. So, all you have to do is properly add foods that are rich in these micronutrients in your diet.
Let's take a look on foods that are rich in antioxidants.
- Vitamin C – It is also known as ascorbic acid. This micronutrient is commonly seen in citrus fruits and vegetables, usually in forms of juices. Orange, calamansi, strawberries, and lemons are some examples of fruits rich in vitamin C. Spinach, broccoli, and cabbages are some examples of vegetables that are rich in vitamin C. If you are someone who rarely eat vegetables, then you can at least drink a glass of fresh fruit juice everyday to sustain the needs of vitamin C of your body.
- Beta-carotene – This micronutrient becomes vitamin A when being absorbed by our body. Foods rich with beta-carotene are grains, spinach, animal liver, carrots, egg yolk, and butter. This doesn't have antioxidants, but it can help your body to prevent in obtaining free radicals.
- Vitamin E – This micronutrient is present in nuts, cereals, fish and vegetable oils, and in apricots.
Eating the right dietary food, especially those food rich in antioxidant, will prevent you from having free radicals. Keep in mind that we are not only eating just to fill in our stomach with foods, but we are merely eating because we know that eating the right foods will grant us a healthy body.
If you think that taking more exercise a week will help you burn those fats that you want to burn is good to your overall health, then you are wrong with that. Excessive exercise will only create more free radicals. This is due to the large amount of oxygen that keeps on entering in our body whenever we are running, lifting, and dancing. If you want to take more exercise, then you have to be more cautious with your diet. Eat more antioxidant rich food to compensate the antioxidant needs of your body during your work out. You can take some antioxidant supplements, but it's always better to ask your physician first.

Foot pain
I have Type II diabetes and I`m experiencing foot pain, especially in my toe area. I check my feet daily for sores or bruises and there are none found. Could this be a circulation problem? I see my doctor regularly but should I make a special appt. to be seen for this?
The overwhelming message we want to convey to people with diabetes is to be vigilant - extremely careful - about your feet and pay attention to any clues. With that in mind, I would say you should go ahead and see your doctor. However, let's review some factors that would help to distinguish how urgent this problem is.
We mostly want to be vigilant to catch infections early. It is fairly easy to tell that you have an infection if you have an open sore that is draining yellow thick fluid that represents pus. What about signs short of that? Signs of inflammation may represent an infection but they could also represent arthritis or tendonitis - signs of inflammation include redness, tenderness, warmth, swelling. If there is inflammation in the foot or ankle or leg and you can't tell whether there is an infection, then it is prudent to err on the side of caution and seek medical attention to rule out infection. Another common cause of inflammation in a foot in a person with diabetes may be an attack of gout - this represents inflammation in a joint due to deposition of uric acid crystals. Pain in the foot not related to inflammation can also result from diabetic nerve damage - so-called diabetic peripheral neuropathy. This is a common source of pain or numbness or tingling. If you experience pain that is not in a joint that gets worse with walking, that could potentially be a sign of inadequate blood flow to the tissues.
Bottom line: if you're not sure, then check.

text: I'm having difficulty trying to get some songs to play on my S4. The songs were converted from YT audio to mp3 (they're Japanese covers of songs, so they usually aren't recorded/sold, but if they are I do buy them), using clipconverter. I downloaded a number of them onto my laptop and changed the properties so that they would appear under the same album and stuff, then stuck them onto my SD card, but now they won't play on my S4. The error I am getting is "Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file." I was wondering if it has something to do with the encoding, since the Japanese characters just appear as gibberish unless I manually change the encoding type to Japanese for each song on my phone? I had a couple songs from clipconverter that would play fine in the downloads folder on my phone, but once I moved the files to my SD card they stopped playing. I've looked at a number of other threads and tried unmounting and resetting the SD card, restarting my phone multiple times, force stopping and clearing the media player data, and downloading other media players to use, but none of that has worked, and I keep getting the same error. Help?
