Project 2: Tectonics and Aftershocks
This project focuses on the processes in the Outer Rise and along the updip end of the seismogenic zone. Because of the offshore location of these regions land-based observations are of limited use , such that an ocean-bottom seismic network provides the main source of data for this project. In this project, detailed locations will be derived for updip and outer rise seismicity, and focal mechanisms will be determined in order to evaluate the state-of-stress.

Update: In deference to the wishes of Manti Te'o and his representatives, PETA is abandoning its plans to erect a billboard featuring an image of the Notre Dame standout next to the slogan "Sometimes Faking It Is Better. Score Faux-Chicken Super Bowl Recipes at PETA.org." Hopefully, people will still defer to the wishes of chickens and not rip their wings off.
Originally posted on January 28th, 2013:
Manti Te'o may have been buffaloed by a fake girlfriend, but he shouldn't feel too bad: Sometimes fake is actually better. That's why PETA created a billboard urging football fans to avoid unnecessary roughness to chickens on Super Bowl Sunday by intentionally grounding real chicken wings and opting for play-action fake fowl instead.
Those animals in PETA's "Glass Walls" video? Unlike Manti's make-believe girlfriend, their deaths are real. Birds slaughtered for their wings and other body parts are often dropped into tanks of scalding-hot water while they are still conscious and aren't covered by even the meager protections of the Humane Slaughter Act.
The price of chicken wings is currently skyrocketing because of higher feed costs caused by this summer's drought, which makes now the perfect time to try vegan wings, such as Gardein Classic Style Buffalo Wings, a favorite of vegetarian and former Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams.
This Super Bowl Sunday, opt for healthy and humane faux wings (find recipes at PETA's Living page). That way, nobody gets hurt.

Honey Boo Boo has found something else that makes her holla: her new companion chicken. Alana Thompson's mother says that HBB and her BFF (best fowl friend) are practically inseparable.
Why, then, would the pint-sized reality star name her chicken Nugget? PETA wrote to Honey Boo Boo asking her to change Nugget's name to "Not a Nugget," after our youth outreach mascot, to honor her companion as a friend, not food.
"As I'm sure you are learning from your chicken, chickens are smart, interesting animals with personalities of their own," our letter reads. "Changing Nugget's name to 'Not a Nugget' will let your fans know that they should be nice to chickens by not eating them."
But even if Honey Boo Boo "redneckognizes" that chickens are better as family members than value meals, that doesn't mean that she would have to give up her "chicken-nugget power." PETA is also sending the pageant queen our "I Am Not a Nugget" T-shirt and Gardein's faux-chicken tenders. Since meat-free nuggets have all the protein with none of the cholesterol, they'll give her more energy than Go Go Juice. And not eating chickens might earn her a whole new flock of fans.
If a dolla will make Honey Boo Boo holla, maybe a Gardein nugget will make her wanna hug it? (Note to June: Gardein also puts out good coupons.)

Keen to try some roasted puppy leg or a freshly carved puppy breast? A new billboard PETA is trying to place outside public schools across the country ahead of Thanksgiving should certainly give children and their parents not only the shivers but also some important food for thought:
Turkey: © iStockphoto.com/James Steidl • Dog: © iStockphoto.com/Eric Isselée
Turkeys are gentle, inquisitive animals who enjoy music and like to have their feathers stroked, but turkeys raised for food are kept in crowded, dark sheds where the ammonia from their accumulated waste burns their skin. At slaughterhouses, turkeys are slammed upside down into shackles and dragged through electrified water. Many birds have their throats slit while they're still conscious and able to feel pain.
Stuffing kids (or anyone) with turkey is also bad for their health: In addition to artery-clogging fat and cholesterol, they also could be gobbling up arsenic, which is used to combat disease on filthy factory farms. Other dangers of eating turkey include contracting listeria, salmonella, or campylobacter bacteria, which cause millions of cases of food-borne illness each year.
Kids can learn more about how to "love animals, not eat them" at the PETA Kids or peta2 websites. Adults who want to quit cruelty cold turkey this Thanksgiving can check out Gardein's delicious vegan holiday recipes and enter to win a free vegan Gardein Savory Stuffed Turk'y on our Living page.

If fever, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and dehydration aren't your idea of 'healthy,' step away from the turkey burgers. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service recalled nearly 55,000 pounds of Jennie-O All-Natural turkey burgers when the meat was found to be infected with salmonella hadar, which is resistant to antibiotics. So far, cases have been reported in 10 states, although the turkey was distributed nationwide.
Besides the fact that turkey flesh is devoid of fiber and is loaded with even more fat and cholesterol than many cuts of beef, the USDA reports that one out of eight turkeys is infected with salmonella. The cramped, filthy conditions on factory farms enable bacteria to spread like wildfire, and the antibiotics routinely given to birds to keep them alive long enough to be slaughtered contribute to the development of drug-resistant "superbugs."
The good news is that you can get the taste of turkey without the icky-ness by gobbling up Tofurky, Tofu Turkey, Native Food's Holiday Wellington, or Gardein's Veggie Turkey Breast.
Written by Michelle Sherrow
The cruel treatment of chickens raised for food is reason enough for people to stop eating them, but Dr. Mehmet Oz just provided his viewers with yet another reason: On a recent episode of The Dr. Oz Show, he explained exactly what's in chicken flesh—chemicals, antibiotics, arsenic, drugs, and salt—and how it can lead to antibiotic resistance and other health problems.
Gardein vegan chicken anyone?
Written by Heather Moore
According to The Smoking Gun Lady Gaga's caught in a new romance, and this one ain't so bad. The website got its hands on Gaga's latest concert rider, and the newest addition to it is a request for Yves vegan hot dogs. Maybe she's trying to do right by Miss Piggy after wearing her boyfriend as a coat.

According to Time magazine, scientists at the University of Missouri have created a soy-based chicken that tastes and feels, well, just like chicken. That should give meat-eaters and vegetarians something to salivate over. The owner of Turtle Island Foods, the maker of Tofurky, is reportedly thinking about purchasing the product, which is not commercially available yet. (In the meantime, Gardein, Boca, and Morningstar Farms make some pretty tasty faux chicken!)
If the University of Missouri's stuff is as good as Time says it is, then more meat-eaters will be swayed to stop eating chicken, which will help curb greenhouse gasses, reduce waistlines, and save billions of birds. The author of the article foresees a bright future. After he plugged PETA's $1 million prize offer for anyone who can bring in vitro chicken meat to market by 2012, he mused, "Maybe one day you'll order a chicken fajita at Chili's that is made with soy.* You almost certainly won't notice the difference, but the planet will."
What do you think? Will this soy in chicken's clothing change the way you eat?
*Rumor has it that Chipotle Mexican Grill is already a step ahead and is set to launch its vegan "Garden Blend" faux-chicken burrito nationwide any minute.
On my list of life's simple pleasures, right below "Cuddling with my cat during our Project Runway marathon": a cold beer, a pair of perfectly worn blue jeans, and a basketful of fried tofu. I'm not alone here: The Grammy Award–winning Zac Brown Band agrees with me—well, at least about the cold beer and blue jeans.
But I'm optimistic that the band will also be singing the praises of soy after it ponders PETA's proposal. We've asked the band members, who sing about their love of freedom in "Chicken Fried," to consider what life is like for chickens and other animals who are kept in constant confinement on filthy, crowded factory farms before they're cruelly slaughtered. We've also offered to partner with Zac and the band on a vegan "eat and greet" for fans on their upcoming West Coast tour. And to make our offer even more tempting, we've sent the band members a basket of delicious, protein-rich faux meats.
So now we wait to hear back from Zac and the rest of the band. In the meantime, I've started veganizing lyrics to some of my favorite country classics. Darling Dolly's "Jolene" becomes "Gardein," for example. Ante up by listing your favorite veganized honky-tonk tune in the comments section below.

Hospital employees should be ambassadors of good health—and Chattanooga-based Memorial Health Care System is embracing this theory. Well, sort of. The company has announced that in an effort to "further our mission of building healthier communities," it will no longer hire smokers and tobacco chewers. Smooth move? It seems so—after all, as FierceHealthCare.com points out, "On average, smokers cost employers between $2,500 and $4,000 annually for healthcare costs in comparison to nonsmokers."
But why stop there? Let's not tiptoe around the tofu anymore. We've written to officials at Memorial Health Care System urging them to take it a step further and implement a "vegetarians-only" hiring policy for area hospitals.
Here's just one example of why a vegetarians-only policy makes sense: Maybe more than anyone else, hospital employees should have an understanding of and appreciation for the effects of an animal-free diet on human health. Sadly, during a recent hospital stay, my mom was stuck eating PBJs day in and day out because the attendants who took her meal requests didn't know what "vegan" meant and seemed not to want to bother to figure it out.
People, I ask you: How's that possible?! Our nation's heath is at stake: While politicians argue about health care legislation, emergency rooms all over the country are bursting at their sliding glass doors with victims of America's three biggest killers—heart disease, strokes, and cancer, the origins of which are often traced back to meaty, cheese-laden diets. Forget pill-popping—prevention of these diseases is our (and animals') best bet.
If schools knowingly hired alcoholics to drive school buses, then we as a society would be outraged. I can hear parents crying out, "Irresponsible! Dangerous! Bad example!" Shouldn't we be equally appalled that hospitals continue to hire meat-addicted, unhealthy health care workers to spoon-feed Salisbury steaks to our sick and injured friends and family members? Becoming stronger and healthier starts with the food that goes into our mouths—and can be as simple as saying "Sayonara, salami. Hello, gardein!"
My interest in CBS's Amazing Race started to wane when PETA pal Mike White and his dad were bumped from the show.
Well, the announcement that scientists in Holland have created a sort of pork in a petri dish means a different kind of amazing race is on—one that can save tens of millions of animals every year. As you may recall, PETA announced earlier this year that we'll pay $1 million to the first team of scientists who could create test-tube chicken flesh that looks and tastes like the "real deal" by June 30, 2012.
The Dutch scientists definitely have their work cut out for them if they're to grab PETA's reward money. The article says their "meat" is presently a gooey blob that "requires exercise, like human muscles, to turn it into a tougher steak-like consistency" and that they expect to have laboratory meat within five years. It doesn't sound appetizing—yet—and five years is a little after our contest deadline, but we're hopeful that they'll work out the kinks and apply their findings to create in vitro chicken flesh for public consumption in time to win the prize.
Until then, my animal-defending compadres and I will keep serving up mouthwatering Gardein to entice meat-lovers to kick their cruel, unhealthy meat addictions.
If you have a general question for PETA and would like a response, please e-mail email@example.com. If you need to report cruelty to an animal, please click here. If you are reporting an animal in imminent danger and know where to find the animal and if the abuse is taking place right now, please call your local police department. If the police are unresponsive, please call PETA immediately at 757-622-7382 and press 2.

I actually managed to down one of them once, get their weapon and shield and down the rest.Seriously gave me a half-boner after I did that - taught me more about LIFE than The Expendables did.
I was waiting for this. A little recommendation from me: Personally, I would prefer Polished Landscapes over the OSP you're using here, just for the terrain texture variations.
I'll be really looking forward to this! Good luck with it!
Looks great so far,Goodluck
Good luck with it.
Wow. Good Luck! I really like the description post
As an example, I have never heard of the Vikings wearing body paint. If you have a source on this, I would love to see it, but, as I said, I've never heard of it.
Yea but if you read it all I didnt see anything saying 'Historically Accurate'

Zoom® Fat Albert Twin Tail Grub - 3-1/2"
Load your tackle box with some of the hottest soft plastic baits in the industry. Zoom baits are preferred by tournament fishermen for their uncanny fish-producing ability. And once fish bite into this lifelike, super-soft and salt-impregnated lure, they'll fight to hang on too. If you've never tried Zoom baits, be sure and tie one on. From that moment on there'll be plastic baits, and there'll be Zoom baits.
Rippled body and twin tail-spinning action create a ruckus that bass can't ignore.
Rated 4.9 out of 5 by 24
Rated 5 out of 5 by jsmallmouthman Good action
This bait is great as the sole thing on a jig or as a trailer. I have used it on the river when I have run out of crayfish and on the lake as a trailer for my 1/2 oz or 3/4 oz jigs, it is too large for smaller jigs though. The twin tails provide plenty of action when swimming or jigging. I have caught largemouth, smallmouth, pike and a few other fish that have been near these kinds of fish including a 4lb smallmouth in the Huron river. My only complaint is that one of the tails can be nibbled off by a smaller fish rather easily.

I used this grub with a fairly large jig head. I love it! Everything you are looking for in the larger Grubs. Durability, Ease of Ease, and Great Colors!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Warphreaque Hey, Hey, Hey Its Fat Albert!
These grubs are great as trailers and have better durability than the single tail grubs. Only problem is that they are more expensive and aren't as useful as the single tail and so far is really only been useful as a trailer. The bait though is a pretty good replacement for my favorite trailer, the Berkley Deuce, it still isn't its equal. I like to pitch it on any Bitsy Bug Jig and have only used the grub so far in chartreuse. Pretty good bait though.

JUNEAU, Alaska -- A Senate leader says he's stepping aside this election year after 18 years on the job.
Sen. Con Bunde is a Republican who represents South Anchorage and the Hillside. He is also the minority leader.
He's been serving in the legislature since 1993 in both the House and Senate.
The retired commercial pilot is up for reelection this year and says he will not run because he's unhappy with the legislature's inability to get meaningful work done.
"I really have thought long and hard about, do I want to campaign, be frustrated and have a vote, or just be frustrated with the process and I've chosen just to be frustrated," Bunde said.
Bunde was vocal about his disdain for bills like Marmot Day and adding a second verse to the Alaska Flag Song.

Breast Screening
Why is it important?
- Treatment is most effective when breast cancers are small so early detection is vital
- Breast screening can detect small changes in breast tissue before they can be seen or felt
- As a result, breast screening saves lives due to earlier detection and treatment of breast cancer
- As well as attending breast screening, women can increase their chances of catching breast cancer early by being breast aware and reporting any changes to their doctor.
Take our breast awareness quiz
Who's screened and when?
- UK women aged between 50 and 70 are invited for screening every three years
- This is being extended to women aged 47 to 73 in some areas of England
- Republic of Ireland women aged 50 – 64 are called every two years
- Women at high risk due to their family history or anyone who detects unusual changes to their breasts after being referred by their doctor.
What's involved?
- Breast screening is free on the NHS in the UK and a government-funded scheme in the Republic of Ireland
- It's carried out only by female staff
- A radiographer will use a special X-ray called a mammogram to take pictures of a woman's breasts.
Independent breast screening review
- An independent review of breast screening was set up in October 2011 by Cancer Research UK and the National Cancer Director to weigh-up the benefits and risks of breast screening.
- In October 2012 this concluded that the UK breast screening programme does save lives, with about 1,300 breast cancer deaths prevented each year.
- However, the review also concluded that the programme also results in overdiagnosis, which is when breast tumours are detected by a mammogram that might not have caused any harm to women over their lifetime
- The review found that of the approximately 16,000 women diagnosed with breast cancer through screening each year, 4,000 of them are overdiagnosed. This means that around 1 in 4 of women who are diagnosed with breast cancer through screening would never have had a problem from their breast cancer if they hadn't been screened.
Our response to the independent breast screening review
Breast Cancer Campaign worked with the charities Breakthrough Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Care to produce a joint response to the review:
"This independent review has provided much-needed clarity - screening can save lives. This is good news for women as they can now be assured that breast screening can be beneficial. However, some women who attend screening may be diagnosed and treated for a cancer that may not have caused them harm in their lifetime. To ensure women understand what this may mean for them it is important they have access to clear and balanced information on the pros and cons of breast screening.
As the UK's leading breast cancer charities we are supporting the work of an expert group looking at the information women receive when invited for their screening appointments and we call for this to be available as soon as possible.
We encourage all women to attend their screening appointments."
- Sometimes breast tumours are detected by a mammogram that might not have caused any harm to women over their lifetime – this is called 'overdiagnosis', and is one of the main criticisms of breast screening programmes
- Exposure to small amounts of radiation during screening- although the risks here are very small
- Screening is able to detect breast cancer but it won't prevent you from getting the disease, so it's vital that people are breast aware, especially between screening appointments
- Occasionally some patients are recalled because of unclear mammograms or for more tests
Non-invasive breast cancer
- Breast screening can also detect some non-invasive conditions such as ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)
- DCIS is when cancerous changes develop within the breast ducts that do not break out into the surrounding tissue
- Most cases of DCIS are detected by screening, rather than self-examination or referral by a doctor
- It is difficult to estimate how often DCIS will develop into invasive breast cancer, but it is believed that if left untreated, DCIS will develop into invasive breast cancer in up to 50 per cent of cases
- For that reason doctors usually recommend that DCIS is treated as they cannot predict how they will develop.
More information:
Other key questions
> Will breast screening hurt?
- It can be uncomfortable and feel awkward and some find it is painful but only for a few seconds.
> Can I re-arrange my appointment date?
- Yes, call the screening unit on your invitation letter to arrange an alternative date.
> Can I still be screened after the upper age limit?
- Screening is still available and free to over 70s in the UK (and those over 65 in the Republic of Ireland) - your doctor can arrange an appointment for you.
> Why aren't women under 50 routinely screened?
- Most cases of breast cancer occur in women over the age of 50
- Traditional (film) mammography isn't as effective at spotting changes in younger women's dense breast tissue
- Therefore currently only women under 50 at high risk due to their family history or those who find unusual changes are screened after being referred by their doctor
- However, with the introduction of digital mammography, screening is being extended to women aged 47 to 73 in some areas of England.

Things change through life, that's a fact and that goes for your bra size as well. To find the perfect bra size right now you can easily measure with a measuring tape just before you're about to buy a new bra.
Measurement 1. Measure around your chest right under the bust.
Measurement 2. Measure the bust right where it is largest.
Click here to find our measuring table.
Do you have a small bust?
The smaller busts don't need as much support. Choose a pretty, soft bra without wire or a push-up if you want to create a nice cleavage. A moulded bra with padding gives you a curvier silhouette and if you want to give your bust a fuller look, use inserts or gel cups.
Do you have a large bust?
Remember that all bra models don't come in all sizes. A large bust needs a good support that relieves the pressure on the shoulders. So choose a well-fitting wire-bra or a balconette. A moulded bra with padding often gives the bust good support while it's very comfortable.
Does the cup not fit? The cup grows with the width. If you grow in width you may have to reduce the cup size.

Does Anyone Still Use The FM Radio Tuner?
Just so this doesn't go off topic, let me first stat that this post has nothing to do with streaming apps of any kind, like IHeartRadio, TuneIn Radio, etc.
I figured I'd ask because it's one of those things you never hear about. I've always used it to listen to the local sports radio station and stations with no online streaming, and up until recently, I've only had 3g to stream with. It's definitely a feature that I'd want for any phone I buy, and I haven't come across an HTC phone I was interested in without it. I would like a holo app but I've only seen one tuner in the play store. Is this a big feature for anyone else? Are there any other tuner apps that you use? Anyone want HD Radio? - 11-10-2012, 04:28 PM #2
Re: Does Anyone Still Use The FM Radio Tuner?
I believe my last three phones, Evo LTE, Evo 3D, Evo 4G, all had an FM tuner. I think it used it once on the original Evo just to see how it worked, since it was a novel feature. Never used it, since. Local radio is just HORRIBLE and has been that way for at least 15, maybe 20 years now. There are no stations that play much of anything I want to hear, and the commercials are not only almost continuous but they are also extremely annoying; even insulting. Just can't stand it. I don't think I have ever even tried the radio in either of my last two cars (which spans 15 years).
Have no interest in sports, have no interest in news. I just throw all my music on a big SD card on every device I own (except car and home/work computers, where it is on hard drives) and play what I want to hear, and the audio quality is 100 times better. Even if they added HD radio (why didn't they?) it wouldn't fix the content.Click "Thanks" and/or "Like" button on posts where someone helped you or you liked the posting.

For me, the 13 bucks a month I pay for sirius /xm is the best 13 bucks I spend.. I listen from 630 am to 430 pm everyday. When in my car I put phone in car mount and connect to my car system and listen. I absolutely love sirius app the on demand feature is outstanding. If you see a channel with a song on you like,, you press that channel and you automatically hear that song from the beginning.

Re: Does Anyone Still Use The FM Radio Tuner?
I used it for the first time over the weekend when I had to mow the lawn during the Falcons/Saints game.
When I had my OG Evo, the FM tuner was crap - so I would stream stations through TuneIn radio and that
was usually fine. Not wonderful, but it would do. Sunday, I decided to try the FM tuner on the new phone, and
it worked like a charm. Crystal clear and no interruption of service. It was odd. Same location (my yard), same
headphones.. but maybe the radio in the 4G LTE is newer/better.
Having said all that, if it were any other game - I would have used TuneIn Radio. It is like having every college
and pro flagship station right in the palm of your hand. About a month ago while doing yard work, I listened to the
Falcons game. When it was over, I listened to the 4th quarter of the Redskins game. Later, I went out to dinner,
and listened to the end of the 4pm game (49'ers) on the way to the restaurant. On the way home, I listened to
the pre-game of the Sunday Night game. It was awesome. - 11-14-2012, 11:49 AM #13
Re: Does Anyone Still Use The FM Radio Tuner?
I never really used the FM Radio until Hurricane Sandy hit and I had lost power for a few hours. I had no cell service so the fm radio on my phone was the only thing keeping me up to date with the news in my area. So I would really hope HTC continues to put the radio in their phones because you never know when it may become useful to you.
Re: Does Anyone Still Use The FM Radio Tuner?
I don't even use FM in my car because of all the options on my phone, LOL. But in all seriousness, I completely forgot about the FM tuner, and I just fired it up to use it now because I do like some of the stations around the area.
RE: Does Anyone Still Use The FM Radio Tuner?
I tried it once just to see if it worked. There aren't any good local stations here.

Enlarged tortuous superficial veins, especially of the leg. Symptoms may include achy or heavy feeling in legs, burning, throbbing, muscle cramping, swelling, itching and skin ulcers. Veins have leaflet valves to prevent blood from flowing backwards. When valves do not work (valvular incompetence), this allows blood to flow backwards and involved veins enlarge. Severe long standing can lead to symptoms.

Energetics of Isometric and Isotonic Twitches in Toad Sartorius Biophysical Journal, Volume 12, Issue 3, 1 March 1972, Pages 215-226 J.B. Chapman and C.L. Gibbs Abstract Contractile energetics have been studied in twitches of toad sartorius muscle at 6–7°C. Isometric and isotonic energy production has been measured and plotted against a wide range of developed tensions and tension-time integrals. These parameters were varied by altering the isotonic load or by changing the preset isometric length. The isometric tension-independent heat was 1.12±0.18 (SD) mcal/g. The isometric heat coefficient Pl0/H was 12.0±1.4 in muscles having twitch to tetanus ratios ranging from 0.4 to 0.6. Isometric enthalpy increased monotonically with tension or tension-time integral but the correlation between isometric heat and these parameters was poor. Isotonic enthalpy consumption was always higher than isometric enthalpy for any given tension or tension-time integral; however, isotonic heat production was consistently less than isometric heat production. The isotonic heat for the highest load (3 g) was not significantly different from the isometric tension-independent heat. Thus isotonic heat production first decreased and then increased with increasing tension or tension-time integral. In the discussion it is shown that the results conflict with all current interpretations of muscle energetics. Abstract | PDF (698 kb) |
Stiffness and Fraction of Myosin Motors Responsible for Active Force in Permeabilized Muscle Fibers from Rabbit Psoas Biophysical Journal, Volume 92, Issue 7, 1 April 2007, Pages 2476-2490 Marco Linari, Marco Caremani, Claudia Piperio, Philip Brandt and Vincenzo Lombardi Abstract The stiffness of the single myosin motor (ɛ) is determined in skinned fibers from rabbit psoas muscle by both mechanical and thermodynamic approaches. Changes in the elastic strain of the half-sarcomere (hs) are measured by fast mechanics both in rigor, when all myosin heads are attached, and during active contraction, with the isometric force (T0) modulated by changing either [Ca2+] or temperature. The hs compliance is 43.0±0.8nmMPa−1 in isometric contraction at saturating [Ca2+], whereas in rigor it is 28.2±1.1nmMPa−1. The equivalent compliance of myofilaments is 21.0±3.3nmMPa−1. Accordingly, the stiffness of the ensemble of myosin heads attached in the hs is 45.5±1.7kPanm−1 in isometric contraction at saturating [Ca2+] (e0), and in rigor (er) it rises to 138.9±21.2kPanm−1. ɛ, calculated from er and the lattice molecular dimensions, is 1.21±0.18pNnm−1. ɛ estimated, using a thermodynamic approach, from the relation of T0 at saturating [Ca2+] versus the reciprocal of absolute temperature is 1.25±0.14pNnm−1, similar to that estimated for fibers in rigor. Consequently, the ratio e0/er (0.33±0.05) can be used to estimate the fraction of attached heads during isometric contraction at saturating [Ca2+]. If the osmotic agent dextran T-500 (4g/100ml) is used to reduce the lateral filament spacing of the relaxed fiber to the value before skinning, both e0 and er increase by ∼40%. ɛ becomes ∼1.7pNnm−1 and the fraction and the force of myosin heads attached in the isometric contraction remain the same as before dextran application. The finding that the fraction of myosin heads attached to actin in an isometric contraction is 0.33 rules out the hypothesis of multiple mechanical cycles per ATP hydrolyzed.

Cross-Bridge Attachment during High-Speed Active Shortening of Skinned Fibers of the Rabbit Psoas Muscle: Implications for Cross-Bridge Action during Maximum Velocity of Filament Sliding Biophysical Journal, Volume 78, Issue 3, 1 March 2000, Pages 1458-1473 R. Stehle and B. Brenner Abstract To characterize the kinetics of cross-bridge attachment to actin during unloaded contraction (maximum velocity of filament sliding), ramp-shaped stretches with different stretch-velocities (2–40,000nm per half-sarcomere per s) were applied to actively contracting skinned fibers of the rabbit psoas muscle. Apparent fiber stiffness observed during such stretches was plotted versus the speed of the imposed stretch (stiffness-speed relation) to derive the rate constants for cross-bridge dissociation from actin. The stiffness-speed relation obtained for unloaded shortening conditions was shifted by about two orders of magnitude to faster stretch velocities compared to isometric conditions and was almost identical to the stiffness-speed relation observed in the presence of MgATPγS at high Ca2+ concentrations, i.e., under conditions where cross-bridges are weakly attached to the fully Ca2+ activated thin filaments. These data together with several control experiments suggest that, in contrast to previous assumptions, most of the fiber stiffness observed during high-speed shortening results from weak cross-bridge attachment to actin. The fraction of strongly attached cross-bridges during unloaded shortening appears to be as low as some 1–5% of the fraction present during isometric contraction. This is about an order of magnitude less than previous estimates in which contribution of weak cross-bridge attachment to observed fiber stiffness was not considered. Our findings imply that 1) the interaction distance of strongly attached cross-bridges during high-speed shortening is well within the range consistent with conventional cross-bridge models, i.e., that no repetitive power strokes need to be assumed, and 2) that a significant part of the negative forces that limit the maximum speed of filament sliding might originate from weak cross-bridge interactions with actin.

Research Article
B. Brenner and L.C. Yu
Equatorial x-ray diffraction patterns were obtained from single skinned rabbit psoas fibers during various degrees of activation under isometric conditions at ionic strength 170 mM and 6–9 degrees C. By direct calcium activation, contraction was homogeneous throughout the preparation, and by using a cycling technique (Brenner, 1983) integrity of the fiber was maintained even during prolonged steady activation. The intensity ratio of the two innermost reflections I11/I10, and the normalized intensities I*10 and I*11 varied linearly with increasing force. Thus the result agreed qualitatively with an earlier finding, obtained from the whole sartorius muscle, that intensity changes in 10 and 11 are directly correlated with isometric force level (Yu et al., 1979). Spacing of the myofilament lattice (d10) was found to decrease with increasing isometric tension. With the filaments in full overlap, maximum shrinkage was 14%. The lattice spacing started to level off when the degree of calcium activation was greater than or equal to 50%, approaching a limit approximately at 380–360 A. This decrease of the lattice spacing indicates that there is a radial force produced by force generating cross-bridges, but the net radial force appears to become insignificant as lattice spacing approaches 380–360 A.

Buy from a wide range of guitar picks from different brands such as Jim Dunlop, Fender, Ibanez, Dava and Planet Waves. Picks come in all different shapes and sizes to suit different guitar players and styles. From thumb and finger picks to Jazz picks we have them all here for sale online and in store.
Plectrums can be used with guitars, ukuleles, mandolins and other fretted instruments.
Picks come in an array of different thicknesses for different tastes, styles and sounds. Picks can be very thin and flimsy at around .40mm or very thick and strong at 2mm or more!
For acoustic guitars sometimes a softer pick would be more appropriate as it allows you to have a wide range of dynamics whilst retaining the integral sound of the guitar. If you have a very thick pick it wouldn't sound as elegant and you wouldn't be able to control the dynamics as much. Of course though, it's all down to your individual preference and ability; picks are cheap so buy a range of sizes to see which suits you the best!
For thinner gauge strings (8s and 9s) a softer pick may be better to use as it would have less stress on the strings potentially preventing it from being plucked too hard which could cause a breakage. Again though, its down to your own playing and preference.
Plectrums also come in different materials such as plastic, nylon, carbon fibre and man made ivory. Tusq picks by Graph Tech are made from a man crafted material designed to emulate the qualities of real ivory but without the inconsistencies and impurities. These picks provide great harmonic content and enhanced tone especially when used with acoustic guitars.
From a smooth Jim Dunlop Delrin pick to a Max Grip Jazz III to a Tusq pick we have lots and lots of picks to choose from, just take a browse through the collection!

How to Wrap Anything
Have you ever bought a gift in a shape that you were convinced couldn't be wrapped? To prove it's possible to use glittery paper and bows to disguise literally anything, gift-wrap expert Alton DuLaney wrapped Rachael's entire kitchen, including the stove, fridge and cabinets! Click on the video for his demonstration for wrapping round items, boxes and lamps, and follow along with Alton's instructions below!
Skillet or round object:
• "Using a textured foil paper, cut out a square large enough that when folded in it covers at least 3/4 width of surface. I like a textured paper because it is more forgiving, and something with a little foil to it folds nicely. This technique can also be done with a soft fabric, or a soft paper, as softer paper more easily hugs the curves."
• "Turn the skillet upside down and beginning on one side, pull the paper up with one hand, and fold in a small pleat with the other, much like pleating fabric in a sewing project. Continue around the circumference of the shape, making evenly spaced, neatly folded pleats. Keep the paper in place by taping as you go," he explains. "As you make your way around the circumference, you may find some bulk begins to build in the center of the gift. If that is the case, you can cut away excess for a smoother finish."
• "Final touch is to cut a circle just smaller than the cooking surface of the skillet, and tape into place to create a clean finish. When you turn over the gift, the top should be neat and round, with pleats around the side."
• "For the handle I cut a long strip of paper and then starting near the base, wind my way up the handle, taping at the end. On this wrap I took a pre-made yellow bow and placed it in the center of an irregularly shaped white card stock, creating a fried-egg gift embellishment."
• NOTE: If you are wrapping something like a hatbox, or other drum-shaped object, always wrap the bottom first, the turn over and repeat process for top.
Criss-cross wrap with card holder:
• This works great on a board game, a book, or a shirt box, anything rectangular and not too thick.
• NOTE: "When wrapping a basic box you always want to make sure you have the three rules of gift wrapping in place: Clean crisp edges (run your fingers around the edges of a gift to crisp them up), tight, clean corners (use the surface you are working on to fold the paper tightly, creating cleaner corners), and no exposed edges of paper (whenever possible, fold the cut edge under so the white of the paper does not show).
• "Lay your gift on the paper and pull the paper to fully cover the top of the box. You will want enough paper on the sides, so that when folded over it covers the surface of the box almost completely. Holding the paper in place with one hand, tuck in the side of the paper against the side of the gift to create triangular shaped 'wings' on the top and bottom of the paper. Repeat on other side so that you have four 'wings.'"
• "Next, starting with the top wing on the left, fold it over the top surface of the gift, creasing neatly. Then do the top right wing, folding it over towards the left, creasing on the surface of the gift. Repeat bottom left wing and bottom right wing, so that when you are finished, a great criss-cross pattern is visible on top of the package (this is both better and harder when using paper with stripes, as the stripes really show the criss-cross effect, but also show any asymmetry in you design!)."
• "After folding all four wings, tape final edge into place, then flip the gift over and finish the bottom as usual. I love this wrap as it creates a pocket on front of the gift where you can insert a greeting card, a gift card, a nametag or other small gift. If gifting a cookbook for example, you can slide in a bookmark into the pocket. It is what I like to call 'putting the present in presentation!'"
• "Starting with the base of the lamp, which usually is round, place wrapping paper under the base and pleat and fold up, working your way around, much as we did above with the skillet."
HINT: Using a lighter weight paper works best for this, as then you can turn on the lamp and have the light show through the paper. Also make sure you pick a paper that doesn't have print on the back, so that when the light is on you only get the illuminated print from the front of the paper.
• "For the shaft of the lamp, in this case I recycled the inner cardboard-tube from the gift-wrap paper and slide it down over the shaft, then just taped paper around the tube. If the shaft of the lamp you are wrapping does not allow that, you can just cut long narrow strips and wrap your way up the pole."
• "For the shade, the best part, I usually start by taking the shade off and placing it onto craft paper. I roll the craft paper around the shade, tape it into place, then use a pencil to trace the shape. Next, I remove the craft paper and cut along my pencil line, making sure it fits before moving on to using my good wrapping paper. Using the craft paper as a pattern, I trace it out and cut the rainbow shape from my wrapping paper of choice. Then I just wrap it around and tape it in a couple of spots. "

Mileage: 180,000 miles.
Asked on November 16, 2012
Buick Lesabre Engine Problem
We just got the oil changed on our 94 Buick LeSabre and now the service engine light won't turn off. The car has started turning off if you are slowly turning/going on a hill and it runs rough when idling. Also, the hood won't automatically spring up/stay up like it used to. What could be the problems and anything easy to check ourselves?

Thank you, to the future Butternuts residents
I was privileged to witness history being made when our town of Butternuts voted in a nine-month moratorium on hydrofracking.
After leaving the Butternuts hearing, our towns' teenagers were attaching purple balloons to every "No Drill/No Spill" sign.
To the young adults of Butternuts that preformed this act, thank you.
It made me reflect back on the long journey the citizens and I have made in the last year. It has been a long and hard-fought battle to preserve our property rights so that we will not be compulsory-integrated into a fracking well and all of the contaminating effects that come with hydrofracking.
Again, to the next generation of Butternuts residents, thank you, for showing us you care and I am sorry for what some adults are putting you and our planet through.
Mrs. Tammy Reiss
