Her fist album released was "Anoushka," followed by "Anourag" in 2000. In November 2002, Shankar was the opening act at a posthumous Concert honoring the life of George Harrison there at the Royal Albert Hall in London. Later in 2003, following the release of her third album "Live at Carnegie Hall," both Anoushka and her half-sister Norah Jones were nominated for a Grammy award. Now in her twenties, Shankar is established as one of the foremost sitarists in the world; she is thriving as a composer, finding new ways to merge Indian music with a variety of genres. In 2005 she earned another Grammy nomination in the World Music category, with the album "Rise."
In addition to her music, Shankar is a talented writer. In 2002 she wrote a biography about her father, "Bapi, The Love of My Life." In addition she has served as a columnist for India's First City Magazine and the newspaper Hindustan Times. Later in 2011, Anoushka signed with the classical music label Deutsche Grammophon, and released her sixth album, "Traveller.
This album was a critically hailed exploration of Indian classical music and Spanish flamenco. Today with her family in London, Shanhar continues to be active in the music scene. Within her, the spirit of innovation and creativity truly lives.

Stocks fall as oil hits lowest price since 2008
U.S. stocks are closing sharply lower, led by a decline in energy stocks as the price of oil plunged to its lowest level since 2008. The price of crude closed below $34 a barrel Wednesday after more signs emerged that China's huge economy is slowing down.
At the close on Wall Street, the Dow Jones industrial average had fallen nearly 252.2 points, about 1.5 percent, to 16,906.5. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was down 26.5 points, about 1.3 percent, at 1,990.3, and the Nasdaq composite had given up 55.7 points, about 1.1 percent, to 4,835.8.
As the markets closed the price of U.S. benchmark crude oil was down $2, about 5.6 percent, at $33.97 a barrel in trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Oil and gas stocks bore the brunt of the selling. Southwestern Energy dropped 13 percent and Marathon Oil sank 12 percent.

Can you combine Percocet with a Tylenol for fever?
- Asked
- 8 Jun 2013 by Jtsmith303
- Active
- 13 Jun 2013
- Topics
- percocet, tylenol, fever
Responses (4)
Look people, it is FINE to take one Percocet with one additional Tylenol 325mg (or even a 500mg for that matter). That is only 650mg of Tylenol altogether (or 825mg if you take a 500) from all sources. For years, people have been taking Tylenol Extra Strength which are 500mg each (and almost everybody takes two for 1000mg) without thinking a thing of it and that is more Tylenol than we are talking here by adding one Tylenol with a percocet. The maximum dosage at one dose is 1000mg and the maxiumum in a 24 hour period is 4000mg or 3000mg if you drink more than 2 alcoholic beverages a day. One Percocet is likely not enough acetaminophen to bring down a fever so one additional Tylenol tablet is FINE and it wont poison your liver at this dose. The problem comes in with drugs like Vicodin ES which have 750mg of acetaminophen (Tylenol) a pop. People were mixing these with extra Tylenol and it was hurting them. Percocet has only 325mg per pill so there is room to add one more Tylenol tablet if someone wants too.
Yes, as long as you do not exceed the daily dose (and Max one time recomended) dose of Tylenol as percocet already has 325 mg of tylenol in it.
While generally safe for use at recommended doses (1,000 mg per single dose and up to 4,000 mg per day for adults of Tylenol), acute overdoses of Tylenol can cause potentially fatal kidney, brain and liver damage and, in rare individuals, a normal dose can do the same especialy when combined with alcohol.
No , I wouldn't do this because Percocet already has Tylenol in it and if that hasn't helped the fever, I doubt if taking more tylenol will. But I am not a medical professional so you should consult your doctor or even your pharmacist before taking anymore tylenol with percocet, besides, too much Tylenol can really cause harm to your liver.

The Learning Ladder offers One-on-One tutoring in all subjects K-12, Test Preparation: (HSPT, ISEE, PSAT, SAT, ACT, TOEFL) and Jr. High Boot Camp.
Today the Learning Ladder offers one-on-one tutoring year-round, and is widely recognized by schools throughout the area. Each year since 2005 we have been invited by St. Francis High School to provide their on-campus test preparation for HSPT and SAT exams. We also enjoy unique relationships with many other private schools, providing co-ed programs and a variety of academic enhancement options.
Ultimately the measure of any tutoring establishment is the success of their students. Over 95% of our students applying to private high schools are accepted by their first school of choice. Indeed our success has gone hand-in-hand with the children we have helped over the past decade.
Reviews From Our Customers
Serving Clients Since 2002
Marta just received her admissions packet from FSHA and not only is she admitted…she got a Veritas Scholarship! She also received a scholarship award from Immaculate Heart! We are so proud, and she insists that the reason was her excellent test prep at Learning Ladder!
"Thank you very much for your help. Tomas was accepted to all of the schools he applied to: St. Francis High School, Flintridge Preparatory and The Polytechnic School! He was only one of two students accepted to Poly from a public school system. He was also accepted to the Kirov Academy of Ballet, Joffrey Ballet Academy (Chicago), Joffrey Ballet School (NYC-100% Scholarship) and was one of twenty-two 14-18 year old dancers chosen in the USA for the Gelsey Kirkland Academy. He will be attending the Joffrey in Chicago this summer. I am sure we will be seeing each other at the next scholastic hurdle, SAT prep."
"My Daughter started one on one tutoring immediately, and then went through the boot camp for the 3 weeks prior to the exam. The tutors just had a way of connecting with my daughter so that she was able to understand the material. She actually enjoyed going to tutoring! In 3 months, she was able to double and in some areas triple her scores. They even helped in preparing her for the interview process.
Learning Ladder was flexible, able to work around her extracurricular schedule and is reasonably priced. She was accepted to all three schools where she applied! She's continuing to tutor in preparation for the math placement exam and it will be the first place we turn for any future tutoring needs."
"I have been coming to the Learning Ladder for 3.5 years and I'm a junior at La Cañada High School, class of 2016. It's a great way to reinforce what I have learned in the classroom. Everyone here is willing and happy to help!"
"Learning Ladder was a great experience! I took the SAT prep course there and had a great experience. My tutor was great and helped me in academic areas that needed improvement. As a result I scored with significant improvement. Prior to the test prep their tutors helped me with subject homework, giving me the GPA I needed for college applications. The entire staff went the extra mile to assist me with whatever I needed to get papers done and homework assignments in on time."

Do you worry sometimes that your children are 'missing out' by not being in school? If they were 'pushed' harder, might they be able to achieve greater things? Is there a danger that one day they'll resent their education and feel that their potential was unfulfilled?
That was something that worried me at first, too.
Firstly, of course, home education isn't irrevocable – if it becomes clear that a child would do better in school at some stage, there's no reason why he can't go there. Many children have gone to school in their mid-teens after years of autonomous learning at home, and found no difficulty in taking advanced courses, and doing exceptionally well in exams. Their internal motivation is not thwarted and they have not been pressurised to feel that learning and studying are 'uncool'.
Secondly, in the primary years, home education may not offer all the topics or opportunities that good schools do, but it offers a lot more freedom to explore and be creative, to ask questions and have them answered, and to learn to think about all kinds of issues. So long as a child is literate (and, more importantly, enjoys reading), and computer literate, by the time he's in his teens, he will probably be able to achieve anything he wishes.
Freedom to explore
But something I realised as my children got older is that given freedom to explore their own interests, they did so to a far greater degree than could happen in schools. Both my boys complained about fixed lesson times in the classroom cramping their creativity when they were in school. They disliked not being able to finish something, or having to put it aside for the following week, or not being able to follow things up because they ran out of time.
My older son, when at school, would often ask questions at home about things he had learned at school, but as homework and after-school clubs increased, he had less time and was more tired. I do know of teens at school who manage to keep up with all their coursework and spend time doing other things that they want to do in the evenings and weekends, but it's a lot more difficult.
Fear of failure
Part of the reason for lack of achievement sometimes, is fear of failure. Children often produce the minimum they can get away with at school, and don't like to try anything more complicated in case they make mistakes.
I don't think this is an inherent problem with schools. One teacher I spoke to said that he would always encourage 'wrong' and creative-type comments in a classroom discussion, because people need to learn from mistakes, and see that a 'wrong' answer may be the route to a new and better one than the simplest, most obvious one.
But he said many children were frightened of making mistakes or saying something silly, because their parents got angry with them when they did. Other teachers may reject 'wrong' answers, or classmates might ridicule it, leading a shy child to give up offering answers or thinking for himself.
No false expectations
But home educated children can be free from false expectations from anyone, and free from competition with their peers. They're much more able to get on and learn in the way that suits them best. My role, as I saw it, was to introduce things that they wouldn't necessarily do themselves: perhaps studying some Shakespeare, or learning a foreign language, or reading some history text-books together. That kind of thing, in a low-key way, for shortish periods until they decided to stop.
Occasionally one of these sessions sparked off something creative and they would spend the morning working on the computer at a brochure, or program, or poster, but mostly it was just a general and gentle introduction to topics they would be have been covering if they had been in school. So if one of them suddenly decided to become a Shakespearean actor, or a museum curator, I hoped they would have at least sufficient basic knowledge and understanding to start them off.
Motivated to learn
The things they really wanted to do, however, are the things they became more excited about, and did often for hours at a time. They learned confidently from mistakes, pushed the boundaries of their understanding way beyond mine.
When my older son was 14, he wanted to be a graphic designer or programmer, and I could see that he was following a good and constructive path (probably way ahead of where he would have been school on those topics), and dedicated to what he did.
He knew how to learn, and how to find out more, and where to look for information on the Web if he needed to. If at some point he suddenly decided he would like to be a doctor, then I knew he wuold need to take courses in biology and chemistry, which – up to then – we had only touched on gently. But that was OK… if he was motivated towards medicine, he would be able to learn because he had found out for himself how to learn.
As he grew older, he taught himself many things and always wanted to know more. He spent hours playing his clarinet and reached a high level, even with little teaching, although he was pleased when eventually we managed to find a teacher who could instruct him in advanced technique. He joined theatre classes, and considered being a professional actor. He taught himself to juggle, from books and online.
He considered musical instrument repair, and we found some relevant books which enabled him to get started. Then at 19 he went to work for two years on the 'floating bookshop' MV Doulos, where he trained as a deck-hand, helped in the IT department, did some videography, as well as drama, puppetry and music. After six months he became 'waterman', a very responsible job on the ship which required flexible thining and self-motivation. The waterman before him was also home educated!
After a year as waterman, my son moved to the audio-visual department, and at the end of two years he took a three-month furlough, then returned to the ship for another two years. Home education prepared him well for the mix of cultures and different tasks he has needed to do, and encouraged him to realise that there were no limits to what he could learn, if he chose to.
So long as our children know how to learn, and are surrounded by encouragement rather than negativity, home education can only be of benefit.

This rink was very expensive and not very well maintained. They charged $9.00 at the door, even for my grandmother to get in and watch her great grandchildren skate. She is in her 70's and obviously not skating. If you didn't bring your own skates, they charged you $2.00 (about normal price) to rent their skates. However, their skates need some extreme repair. The set I got had laces that only went half way up the boot, when I asked them for a new set of laces they handed me a set that was just as short. The staff acted like they couldn't be bothered to help me. I ended up having to tie a knot half way up the boot and then again at the top with another lace. The bottoms of the boot had no padding and felt like they were rotting. After skating around the ring a few times I felt a stabbing in bottom of my foot, when I took the skate off there where two bolt heads sticking out of the sole and stabbing me. The rink itself was ok, until something sticky got spilled on it and several people fell. Even when we reported it to the staff they did nothing about it. On top of all this, we happen to go on a "Glow Skate" night where in order to skate during "Glow Skates" you had to be wearing something that glowed, i.e. glow bracket. We were not informed of this until after we paid our admission, then once we purchased glow rings from their shop, they only did one more "Glow Skate" the rest of the night. It is a good thing I was only in town visiting because even if this was the only place in town to go have family fun, I wouldn't go if you paid me. Ultimately this place may be great if you have the money to spend and bring your own equipment, but they really need to take safety into consideration.

I didn't ask for any of this.
I didn't ask to be some kind of hero.
But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado—taking you with it—you have no choice but to go along, you know?
Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little bluebirds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion. There's still a yellow brick road—but even that's crumbling.
What happened? Dorothy.
They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe.
My name is Amy Gumm—and I'm the other girl from Kansas.
I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked.
I've been trained to fight.
And I have a mission.
My Thoughts
I love The Wizard of Oz, so a retelling of this story was a must read!! I really enjoyed this take on the book. It was fun, adventurous, and I really enjoyed the characters.The main character Amy is spunky, snarky, and fun. I really liked how she viewed everything and her thought process about things.This was dark, but humorous book and I really liked listening to it.
Amy is our main character. She hasn't had the best life. Her mom has a lot of issues, and Amy doesn't really have friends. She gets ranked on by the popular girl, who also happens to be pregnant. This may not seem to matter in my review, but little details about things in the book do matter later when you think back on them, and when Amy thinks back on them. She wakes up in a messed up version of Oz and is convinced that she is hallucinating. As she travels through Oz, meets people, and discovers herself, she really does grow a lot as a character. I really enjoyed her "don't give a crap" personality. She as a fun character to follow through this journey.
We get all of the great characters from The Wizard of Oz in creative ways. Especially Dorothy. Now she is quite a character. She in nothing like the sweet and innocent Dorothy we are used to. She is too perky, too fake, and too evil. She is power hungry for magic, and will do anything she can to make sure everyone and everything follow her rules. The munchkin we meet is really awesome too. I really liked her. Mostly, I really loved how good and evil are opposite in this.
The audio of this was really great. I thought the narrator was perfect for the story. She put the emotion into the story. She made me believe that she was Amy. She was able to make all the characters their own as well. I was able to get completely into the story and found myself wanting to keep listening.
This was a fun adventure and a great take on one of my favorite stories. It had a lot of humor, a lot of action, and just a fun journey to follow. Each chapter ended to make you not want to stop and just read one more. I did want to know more about some things, but overall it was told very well, and didn't leave me wanting much. This is an author that I can't wait to read more of!!
*An advanced digital audiobook copy was provided by the publisher for review. I did not receive any compensation.

His wanderings take him to an hotel on the English water-front and finally to sea in his own yacht. With him go Alice Bolton, a barmaid, and her lover, a prize-fighter. Lord Langley finds a little too much adventure when he falls In love with the dainty Alice under the eyes of prize fighter. A storm, which isolates these three ill-assorted characters from the world, is the background for this tempestuous triangle.'

The watershed approach is a natural approach to landscape design, construction, and maintenance that transcends water-use efficiency to address related benefits such as rainwater capture; reduction of pollution, energy, and landscape costs; and human and wildlife habitat improvements.
Please join us for a brown bag lunch in collaboration with the Association of Professional Landscape Designers, California Chapter (www.apldca.org), on the Watershed Approach to California Landscapes. We will view a short film that emphasizes the importance of permeable landscapes in protecting watershed health.
Following that, Paul Herzog of the Surfrider Foundation (http://www.surfrider.org/programs/entry/ocean-friendly-gardens) will expand on the topic and describe California's new Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance.

Simulation of airflow through round bales/crops
Hi, for my research I need to simulate de airflow through round bales and also through a bed of other products like plant leaves (my research is about drying of these products). I have no experience with CFD and only know about FLUENT. Is FLUENT the right choice to do the job or are there other more adequate and or cheaper softwares? We still have to buy the software. Also, from reading in FLUENT´s used guide, I see that to simulate the flow through a perforated plate one can use the porous media model. However, is it possible or correct, to simulate this flow by creating the dryer geometry including the perforated plate? Thanks a lot.
Re: Simulation of airflow through round bales/crop
I would not recommend using porous media to model flow through a perforated plate, unless you are modeling a stack of plates (matrix heat exchanger). Look for the authors Sparrow, Venkatarathnam and later Hayes on modeling a perforated plate.
When using Fluent's porous media model there are things that have to be known that can only be known through laboratory experiments (the inertia and permeability coefficients). If you can find good estimates for those values for your experiment you will be in good shape. But, if you can't then you will have to run an experiment yourself. Getting the coefficients from experimental data is pretty easy, but designing and running the experiment is a hassle.
Re: Simulation of airflow through round bales/crop
I think the porous media assumption is fine for your case. Will you be be doing some wind tunnel modelling to relate pressure pressure drop to the inertia and viscous coeffs? If not I think there is a paper by Carpenter (can't rem. 1st name) in Journal of Agricultural Engineering Research for some agricultural materials. As regards software, I think fluent should be good, and it will come in the Ansys workbench soon, so should be even more user friendly.
Re: Simulation of airflow through round bales/crop
Thanks for answering. Yes, I guess if I don´t find any useful data already in the literature, I will make some experiments to relate pressure drop to the resistance coefficients. I will look for the paper you mention. I think for the round bale I have to find the coefficients for each direction, don´t know however if I can use the Cartesian coordinate system or I definitely have to use the cylindrical system. Any thoughts? Thanks!

If Viagra has made sex possible for men suffering from impotence, a new drug introduced in the United States aims to make it last much longer.
The new wonder medicine named dapoxetine, unveiled at an annual meeting of the American Urological Association, is designed to help millions of men around the world cope with premature ejaculation wreaking havoc on their sex lives.
Although much less publicised than erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation affects a significantly greater number of men, scientists say.
According to the association, between 27 per cent and 34 per cent of males of all age groups are suffering from this condition, which is usually diagnosed when sperm release occurs two minutes or less into the sexual act, or even before penetration.
Erectile dysfunction treated by Viagra and similar drugs affects an estimated 10 to 12 per cent of all men, usually in the older age group.
"The impact premature ejaculation can have on men and their partners can be devastating for a relationship and, currently, there are no truly optimal therapies for PE," said Dr Jon Pryor, the chief urologist at the University of Minnesota and lead researcher during dapoxetine's clinical trials.
The test involved 2,614 men aged between 18 and 77, who maintained monogamous sexual relationships of more than six months and suffered from premature ejaculation.
Each received 30 milligrams or 60 milligrams of dapoxetine over 12 weeks in two identical placebo-controlled trials.
The results showed the drug helped them lengthen intercourse three to four times.
Dapoxetine increased their staying power with the first dose and helped maintain the increases over the whole study period.
The US Food and Drug Administration is reviewing an application for the pioneer drug, which was developed by Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical, an affiliate of Johnson & Johnson.

Maca is a tuber grown on the high Andean plateau. It is considered to be a natural energizer, with a great tonic effect that improves physical performance in general. It belongs to the group of adaptogen plants, those that are capable of increasing the resistance of the body to the adverse influences of physical and emotional stress.
Maca by HSN Essentials helps to reinforce the immune system, regulate hormonal balance and increase brain capacity, positively influencing the general condition of the body.
Above all, Maca is considered to be one of the best aphrodisiac plants for both men and women. In fact, Maca is also known as the Ginseng of the Andes and Vegetable Viagra and is very widely used to treat sterility, sexual and reproductive dysfunctions.
Maca also promotes the reproductive health of women as it reduces premenstrual symptoms and menstrual pain and the symptoms of menopause (hot flushes, vaginal dryness, night sweats, incontinence, sleep problems, mood swings, forgetfulness, loss of muscle mass ).

I have been an affiliate for some of the CJ advertisers for the last couple of years. As far as getting help from CJ, my experience has been that expecting them to respond to a help request is an exercise in futility. I am in the middle of one of these at this moment.
I applied for FTP access, which was set up and I received a notice of approval, which includes this:
FTP address: datatransfer.cj.com
Username: nnnnnn
Password: xxxxxx
I have not been able to access anything. Downloading and reading the CJ Scheduled Data Transfer Guide was no help.
I have tried browsing to:
http:// datatransfer.cj.com,
https:// datatransfer.cj.com and
ftp:// datatransfer.cj.com
but never even gotten to the point where I see a login form because all the above generate errors (I tried all these in two different browsers).
I was hoping someone in these forums can point out what I am doing wrong or missing.
Best regards to all,

I have had good luck with feed help but you have to use their exact procedure for asking. Go to "Contact Us" and under "Ask A Question" click "go". Use the form carefully and you should get fairly quick results that is helpful. That's been my experience anyway.

vicjg and John, thank you for your help.
I did get an email from CJ about 20 hours after I asked my question, so its all worked out.
I did end up getting FileZilla, which I did not know about nice.
It never before took all this work to download a 460KB text file.
Thanks again and best regards,

Going back again to SSj forms. I remembered Trunks saying he has more power than his father, but that form does make him powerful with bulky muscles, but becomes slow. Another is that Pai-Ko defeated Cell and Freeza with one hit, but Goku only had SSj at that time, but was able to beat Pai-ko in a tournament. Also remember Goku can absorb the spirit bomb when he gets it from the earth or the sun which he defeated android 13 with which is still fact ssj1 level.
For the guesses and speculation of the revived person since it's said "SOMEONE" and lets disregard the fact of the one year and kami rules for now.
It could be Broly for reasons he's pretty popular, Buu since probably Goku wants to defeat him solo without using the spirit bomb, Bardock Goku wants to know and ask his real father questions that leads to something chaotic or an original character movie only.

Pikkon isn't canon in the slightest, so don't look at anything involving him for hints on power scale. Same for Goku absorbing the Spirit Bomb. That was just asinine.
And yeah, SSJG Goku is quite a bit stronger than Super Saiyan Gogeta or Vegito (he said Vegito in the movie if I recall, but since he was talking about fusing to beat Beerus it'd make more sense to use Gogeta's power instead of Vegito, but Gogeta isn't canon), so even Gohan absorbed Super Buu wouldn't hold a candle to him.

I agree with SSJgod tipping the power levels, but it's artificial and "ANY" of the SSj Z warriors can become a SSjgod since all of them are sinless now. Bills/Beerus is scale of power. SSjgod can match him, but due to the time limit Goku lost. Vegito relies on the potaro earrings absorption or probably if you destroy one while battling Vegito they'll be separated.
I really do wish they canon a few of the movies Gogeta would be great. GT as always non canon, but that is the most logical thing to do in a situation like that. Though the down side is that any fusion with Vegeta and Goku only results to a more arrogant over powered Gogeta/Vegito.

Really? I didn't know that or slipped my mind since it's been a long time watching DBZ series and I don't wanna repeat watching it with DBZ Kai. You know long popular dragging animes *cough Naruto*
Anyways the only clue we have from the teaser is that the power up Goku has is the power up that Vegeta did when he fought Bills.

I wouldn't put any stock in the trailer. Not until we get actual footage, and even that's subject to change (see: Super Saiyan Gohan).
As for the earrings, the ones Vegito initially used were the ones that fused Elder Kai. He didn't defuse when the earrings were broken inside Buu. When they lured Kid Buu to the Kai planet, Kibito Kai handed Goku and Vegeta his earrings, which they promptly broke, without him defusing.

Funny thing is that Bills didn't do pressure moves on ssj Goku which could have stopped him or koed him.
As for the changes, I really don't care adjustments are always needed to make things consistent and better for the film.

I hope for 2015 we actually get a film. Battle of Gods was extremely disappointing when I saw it a few months ago or whenever it was. Toriyama and company really need to hammer out a solid plot and not make something that is essentially an hour and a half get-together at a party. Dragon Ball has never really been great for solid, tight storylines, but they can do much better than what was just released.
I'm guessing Frieza is the one that is going to be revived. And no more new transformations please. Enough is enough. Should have stopped after Super Saiyan 2.

Am I one of the only few people who loved battle of the gods when I saw it in the movie theater? It was a lot better than many of the other movies... Though I probably still enjoyed Fusion Reborn the most out of all the movies.

Optimal Design of Two-Sided Market Platforms: An Empirical Case Study of eBay
While much is known about optimal design of auctions within the context of a single item for sale, little is known about optimal design of large platform markets like eBay and auto auction houses that house large numbers of concurrent auctions. We attempt a macro-level empirical market design exercise by combining a unique dataset on tablet sales collected from eBay over the course of a year with methodologies developed by Bodoh-Creed (2011) and Backus and Lewis (2013). The former proposes a tractable approach to studying dynamic auction markets when the number of participants on both sides is sufficiently large. The model also delivers predictions on optimal fee schedule design -- specifically, in terms of listing fees and percentage charges for a sale -- for an auction house wishing to maximize profits by attracting the appropriate mix of buyers and sellers into the market. We begin by empirically investigating the key assumptions of the model which deliver (computational and empirical) tractability, and find that they are reasonable. We then estimate consumer demand, market supply, and the distributions of market entrants (this part still in progress). These figures are plugged into the Bodoh-Creed (2011) framework in order to compute optimal fee schedules and draw comparisons to actual fee schedules, as well as to make policy prescriptions.

CHICAGO — In an effort to make its flagship beer more accessible to consumers, Sudwerk Brewing Co. has introduced California Dry Hop Lager in Rexam 12 oz. cans. This is the first time the 25-year old brewery has canned one of its brews.
California Dry Hop Lager features a blend of pine and citrus hop aromas mixed with the crisp refreshment of aGerman Helles lager. This classic lager style is dry-hopped to create a unique, easy-drinking West Coast craft lager.
"The time was right for us to join the legion of craft brewers who have begun putting some of their beers in cans," said Trenton Yackzan, co-owner, Sudwerk Brewing Co. "It's a great way to expand our distribution and get new people to try our brand. Through our partnership with Rexam, we hope this move will help us attract an even broader audience for our innovative craft beers."
Sudwerk Brewing Co. decided to try aluminum cans because their portability and durability make them better suited for outdoor adventures like hiking, camping and fishing. Aluminum cans are often permitted in places that don't allow glass. Sudwerk also benefits from the additional inherent can advantages. Cans provide complete protection from light and oxygen, which helps preserve beer's freshness longer. They are light-weight, which can reduce shipping costs. Cans are also the most sustainable beverage package in the world, recycled at more than double the rate of any other option.
Rich Grimley, president and CEO, Rexam BCNA, commented on Sudwerk's expansion into cans. "Our cans are the perfect packaging choice to help the brewery reach additional consumers. They help the brand attract attention on store shelves, safeguard beverage integrity and deliver superior recycling, filling, distribution and retail display economics that will help build their brand and business."
California Dry Hop Lager in cans is currently available at select retailers in California.
About Sudwerk Brewing Co.

Its taproom, The Dock Store, is located in Davis, California and offers a rotating menu of experimental and innovative beers, "honest pints" and growler fills, fresh White Labs brewers' yeast and good conversation.

More on my ship design changes for my Traveller setting.
One change I've made in this setting when comparing Civilian (CT) and Military (HG) ship designs is in comparative damage levels.
Military ships with weaponry equivalent to a cilivian ship will inflict FIVE TIMES the damage as compared to a civilian model. This reflects a number of changes for the military design: better, more detailed engineering, more power, etc.
Conversely, Military ships are able to take FIVE TIMES as much punishment compared to Cilivian ships.
What this means: players who encounter a military ship, for whatever reason, had better be on their best behavior. If that ship is hostile, they better run, or surrender and hope for mercy...
I've read posts in other forums, detailing more 'logical' or better methods to 'accurately' depict weapons mounts/hardpoints on Traveller ship designs. Usually, this type of change is desired by people wanting their ships to have the numbers of weapons found in various science fiction designs. I personally have NO problem with this concept. However, since I am no mathematician, nor a structural scientist/engineer, I have to rely on others for their input/ideas.
With the limitations I have in place in my Traveller setting (Civilian versus Military designs), and the fact that players will NOT be receiving any military ships or hardware what-so-ever (I'd be crazy to allow this; my players are all engineers and programmers - they know a few things!), I don't really need to worry about this issue. Any military ship the players encounter will have MORE than enough firepower to deal with a pesky civilian ship...
In effect, there are no changes to a ship's available hardpoints in this setting.
Modular Hulls
The Mongoose Traveller rules (which these rules borrow heavily from) allow a ship hull to designate up to 75% of its volume allocated as MODULAR. This gives ship designers great flexibility, and I incorporated this concept into these setting rules.
Ships may be designed to use heavy-duty grapples to carry other components, such as external cargo pods, or even entire starships. This is entirely legal, as long as the ship can still move (1-G+, or Jump-1 for interstellar travel) with the added volume.
A grapple takes up 3% the volume of tonnage it is designed to hold (round up to the nearest half-ton), and costs MCr 1 per ton of grapple.
Increased Structure
This Mongoose option is available for ship designers in this setting. However, it makes little sense for a Civilian (CT) ship to utilize it, as most CT designs are not capable of withstanding large amounts of combat damage - especially if they may be facing actual Military-design ships. Therefore while available, it makes little sense for most ship designs to utilize this feature. Save the cost, and use the volume for armor or, more importantly for cilivians, cargo space.
Increased Hull Rating
See Increased Structure, above. Same availability, same reasons not to use it.
Armor is important for surviving combat. It also takes up valuable ship volume, a no-no for traders who wish to turn a profit. And it costs credits.
Civilian (CT) ships designers may purchase armor as in the Mongoose rules. Military-grade (HG) ships use formulas derived from the old High Guard rules.
Stealth Coatings
Stealth coatings are available for CT/Civilian ship designs. A number of factors limit this feature's use, however.
One, it is expensive. MCr 0.1 per ton of ship.
Two, Imperial (and other) authorities have a tendency to 'disapprove' of civilian ships utilizing this option. For some reason, they tend to believe ships designed with stealth will be used for smuggling, piracy, and/or blockade-running. And they are usually correct.
Electromagnetic Masking (EMM)
While this option is available, its use tends to be restricted by the Imperium (and other) interstellar governments. See Stealth Coatings, above. Also, this option requires actual ship volume, which is better used for cargo capacity with most civilian designs.
Reflec Armor
This type of armor is used to reflect laser attacks. This is a good, relatively inexpensive option for many captains, and it can easily be included without the added inconvenience of a refit or overhaul.
However, this option is USELESS against missile attacks, which are a favorite of commerce raiders and pirates everywhere.
It is also nearly useless against the more powerful military ship energy weapon attacks (plasma, fusion, etc).
LCD Hull
Ships may be designed with LCD, or liquid crystal display, hulls. For most commercial ships this is a useless extravagance, and the ship is given a specific paint job. For a small trader, selling wares out of his open cargo bay, or a young noble, however, this may be a relatively-inexpensive advantage.
With proper programming, and/or a good graphic designer, the ship can change its outward appearance to reflect its products, services, etc. Or it can be used to change one section of the hull, with changeable messages.
Note that a designer MAY designate only a small portion of the hull as having this option. Minimum cost is MCr 0.25, even if a smaller area is desired.
This option costs MCr 0.05 per ton of hull.
Note that combat damage will affect the appearance of the design.
This ends (for now?) the setting changes for CT ship design in my campaign.

Duck 'n Dance
Choreography: Jazzart Dance Theatre, under the direction of Alfred Hinkel & Debbie Goodman
|Artscape Arena, Cape Town: 1998
|This was an extremely popular 45-minute, African version of the classical ballet, Swan Lake. René rewrote some of the major extracts to create an electronic, contemporary African soundtrack in a jazz style, underplayed with heavy drumming.
"We even used flying skills," says Alfred. "Sbonakaliso Ndaba and Ondine Bello played the roles of the lead swan and the prince respectively. David Poole's partner, Owen, came to see it. He was in tears afterwards, and said 'David would so have approved'."

Hi! I want to package some kernel drivers for mpeg decoder cards that feature em8300 chipsets. The problem I see arising is that some parts of the software are based on information gained from reverse engineering windows vxds. An other thing that is of importance is that the decoding of mpegs won't work as long as some microcode is extracted from the windows vxd and then uploaded to the chipset. So I think in the best case this piece of software is contrib, but reverse engineering is prohibited in a number of countries and so I am not sure if this would be better go into non-free or even stay out of the archive. Therefore I am asking for some advice. If you need further information you may ask me or have a look at http://dxr3.sourceforge.net/ (the project page of the software in question). Please cc me since I am not subscribed to the list.

Do you know what there's not enough of in the world (and, in my opinion, never will be)? Cake batter flavored things. So I decided to add another one to the mix: Cake Batter Rice Pudding. It's just rice pudding (which is surprisingly easy to make if you've already got some cooked rice on hand) with a little something extra to make it a lot more fun.

Procter & Gamble (P&G, Cincinnati, Ohio / USA; www.pg.com) has introduced the "Slide-Rite closure from packaging producer Pactiv (Lake Forest, Illinois / USA; www.pactiv.com) on the larger packages of its Fairy dishwashing tablet line. In 2009, P&G launched the dishwashing tabs in a laminated film, stand-up pouch equipped with the Pactiv reclosure system. Pactiv says the system offers high reliability, even if the packaging is frequently opened, and that the tablets are protected against humidity.

text: I think it would have been an even greater injustice for Florida than it is now for Michigan. The purpose of the BCS is to produce a championship game to determine a National Champion. If you had a playoff format with four teams one of those teams would have had to play tOSU. Michigan had a shot at the National Championship and lost. Some say that Florida shouldn't have moved above Michigan because Michigan didn't play and had been #2. BUT Florida did beat Florida State AT Florida State and then beat an EXCELLENT Arkansas team with McFadden in the SEC championship while Michigan was idle. Florida BEAT the #4 team in the nation (LSU) and their only loss is AT the #10 team's stadium. They played the TOUGHEST schedule in the country. Michigan's biggest downfall was their weak schedule. They played 3 teams ranked in the Top 25 and finished with a 2-1 record. One of the teams they defeated was Wisconsin which played only ONE team in the Top 25 and LOST. The biggest knock on Florida is that they have ESCAPED several times. All in all, I think that the BCS worked. They should tweak the requirements for the National Championship Game to only include Conference Champions. IMO it would have been a far greater travesty to not allow SEC champion Florida to play in the championship and let Michigan in.

During the recent events surrounding the murder of unarmed Black males by white police officers in this country, it has been pointed out, and correctly so, that America has a steep and tortured history concerning the murders of Blacks by whites – legally and illegally! But what has for the most part been left out of this real life and death conversation is the fact that Black police officers have done, and are still doing, the same thing as their white police partners.

The Constitution guarantees every American the right to a fair trial and to face his or her accusers. This right has been denied to African Americans, who make up a larger and larger part of the prison population under America's "New Jim Crow."

Clearwater works to protect the ecology of the Hudson River and the well-being of all the people living in its watershed – by ensuring that PCBs are cleaned up from the Hudson River, by working to close down the aging and leaking nuclear power plant at Indian Point, and by supporting the development of renewable energy sources that are non-polluting.
Our objective is a Hudson River ecosystem free of harmful pollutants, with ample habitat to sustain the reproductive integrity, health and well-being of life at all trophic levels—including human.
We are active in many large scale local problems, such as
and we have been influential in some important victories, such as
- preventing the Haverstraw Desalinization Plant in Rockland County, NY
- the banning of Hydrofracking in New York State.
Public awareness is one of our primary strategies – an educated, concerned citizenry is a powerful force for change. A number of state and federal laws create the statutory framework in which we all operate, but too often the laws prove ineffectual or the agencies implementing the laws become vulnerable to political pressure. Guided by a set of core environmental values, Clearwater works cooperatively with concerned citizens, elected officials, and state and federal regulatory agencies to find alternative solutions. As a last resort, we will litigate to protect the environment.
We are also active with Environmental Justice issues, addressing the need to prevent the disproportionate impacts of pollution that are all too often borne by communities of color and residents of economically disadvantaged areas.
Clearwater's Climate Justice work, as a form of Environmental Justice, involves the fair treatment of all people and freedom from discrimination with the creation of policies and projects that address climate change and the systems that create climate change and perpetuate discrimination.
Clearwater's environmental action programs have gained a wide reputation in the Hudson Valley for effective science-based strategies in the public interest. From original research on large-scale issues, to support of small grassroots community groups, we employ a range of innovative and traditional citizen advocacy techniques designed to restore and protect the quality of the Hudson River watershed.

More time urged for stolen wage payments
The Aboriginal Legal Service (ALS) says the lack of people applying for the Western Australian Government's stolen wages payment is proof six months is not long enough to apply.
WA Aboriginal people were eligible to apply for a $2,000 ex-gratia payment if they had had wages withheld in trust funds until the 1970s.
One month in, and 43 people across the state have applied - only 14 are from the regions.
ALS chief executive Dennis Eggington says it is proof the deadline needs extending.
"I think that it is a call to Government to reassess the time frames and ensure there is a fair and equitable process for all Aboriginal people that are eligible for this scheme to at least get their applications in," he said.
"What worries me particularly is that there is a very strong indication once again that the further you are away from Perth, the more difficult time you have and less time you're going to have to get those applications in."

Christmas in July
July 15, 2014
Are they crazy? I couldn't believe it when recently channel after channel was showing Christmas stories on television.
Hello, friends, it was over 100 degrees outside and these clowns were showing Christmas stories. Then, of course, they showed a scene with a couple dancing inside their log home.
Looking out through the windows, you could see many beautiful pine trees. I fell apart. If you'd tried to depict a home exactly like the one my Van and I owned in Lowman, Idaho, you couldn't have done a better job. So, of course, I cried. But I was enjoying the quiet. My son Doug was outside watering or pruning or doing something to the homestead. Our puppies Molly and Riley napped at my feet.
I love these quiet moments. Don't we all once we get past those middle years?
Christmas is such a spiritual time with its' beautiful decorations, gift exchanging, and the wonderful music of this special holiday. Perhaps even atheists have to admit it's nice to fill the void of winter days with all this special holiday season entails. This is especially true if you're lucky enough to live where — God willing — it actually snows.
I have a "thing" about snow. For me, there's nothing more beautiful than a landscape; even an urban scene; covered in a soft, white, clean blanket of snow. Everything suddenly becomes perfect and the world is in a better place, even if for just a little while. I'm from those olden days, back east, when the tree didn't get put up until Christmas Eve and mom and dad spent hours getting that chore done.
Recommended Stories For You
It was then time for the real game to begin, hunting down hidden presents to lovingly place them under the tree. Finally it was off to bed, usually way after midnight, to get a couple hours of much needed sleep. We all remember those special Christmas mornings when our kids woke us, just as the sun began its morning journey, all excited to see what "goodies" Santa had left under the tree.
One of my special memories is when Doug got his first two-wheel bike. Somewhere — in one of our many family albums — is a picture of him dressed in a cowboy outfit, hat and guns, poised ready to handle any bad guys. Beside him is my oldest son Don, Jr. with a dozen or so of his favorite games. Don, Jr. was the so-called "brain" of the family back in those days.
Trimming a Christmas tree was my favorite chore during the holidays, until I hit 80!. Now we have a fake, pre-lit one that is actually quite beautiful. Back when my husband Van was still with us, he did a huge amount of complaining that he had to climb up a hill, over a stream, and cut down the most beautiful, tall pine that his wife had demanded must be the exact tree she had to have.
Much later, when this beautiful pine was decorated, Van bragged that our tree was the most beautiful in the world. The he'd grin. In 1983, the last year of his life, we'd moved from our huge house in Cascade to our log home in Lowman. About 50 hearty souls stayed for the winter. We'd brag about what kind of tree we had, many placing them as we did in the window, for all to see.
Our front porch covered our living room window. The freshly cut tree Van and I had decorated was carefully placed in the middle of our kitchen table so that it could be seen from outside. However this particular Christmas, the one I remember most, was our last one in Lowman. Our neighbors had their grandchildren visiting and Van was to be Santa Claus. I'll never forget the scene of him dressed as Santa Claus.
Van was riding alongside our road on a snowmobile, pulling a sled with a huge bag of toys. Snowflakes filtered down from the heavens, the snowmobile's headlights showing the way. Our neighbor's grandchildren were watching everything, their noses pressed against the windows. It was later, at the end of the day, that I began to realize just what I'd witnessed. Some of you may have watched a similar scene in many Christmas movies?
This old lady was blessed to see it for real, in an honest to goodness setting. I smile now at the memory of the last Christmas Van and I had together. Could anyone ask for more?

When the case gets registered in a court, then the court will call for the session. One can win a case or lose one according to the evidence or the proof that has been shown to the court. The verdict is given according to the proof submission. A preliminary inquiry is not compulsory. It is completely the choice of the accused or the crown to have a preliminary hearing. A case can be continued even if there is no preliminary hearing. As per Aclu.org, there are a lot of reasons why people do not opt for a preliminary hearing. What exactly is called as preliminary hearing?
A court hearing whereupon calling by the crown, the evidence can be submitted against the accused firstly through the witnesses. At this point of time, no defense can be made. When the evidence is getting submitted, it gives defense team the opportunity to study the case and evaluate it. When the hearing is over, the court can either sent the client to trial or discharge the case if the court feels the evidence is insufficient. For the court to send the client on trial there is no need of much evidence if the submitted evidence is fair enough.
It is not appropriate to have a preliminary hearing in every case. In some cases only, the preliminary hearing will allow the prosecutor or the crown attorney to put the case together. There are times when the preliminary hearing can do nothing other than assisting the prosecution so that a theory can be developed for the client.
Having said this, it does not mean that the preliminary hearing is not at all important. In some cases, a preliminary hearing is important for preceding a case where you have valuable evidence. For some cases, preliminary hearing can contribute more evidence as it is questioning the witnesses or other cases such as search and seizure. If anyone feels like having a preliminary hearing, then the evaluation of the case must be on an individual basis.
After the judge performs the preliminary hearing, the person who is the accused might get discharged. The reason behind this is the insufficient evidence put forth by the client. If the accused person gets a discharge from all the cases, then one can conclude that the case has been ended. There are many other situations where court gets fresh proof after the preliminary hearing. If those proofs are agreed by the court there are chances that the accused will be prosecuted again.
There are certain cases where the accused person gets discharged on some limitations and has been sent to trial on others. In most of the court cases, the accused person is sent to trial after the preliminary inquiry. In such cases, the crown cannot prove the guilt after a reasonable doubt. The evidence should speak for the client.
The only thing that plays an important role is the evidence. If a person has strong evidence against the accused, then the judge can give the verdict once the evidence satisfies the court.
