The mixing-length-based parameterization of horizontal diffusion, which was originally proposed by Smagorinsky, is revisited. The complete tendencies of horizontal momentum diffusion, the associated frictional heating, and horizontal diffusion of sensible heat in spherical geometry are derived. The formulations are modified for the terrain-following vertical-hybrid-coordinate system in a way that ensures energy and angular momentum conservation at each layer. Test simulations with a simple general circulation model, run at T42 horizontal resolution and for permanent January conditions, confirm the conservation properties and highlight the enhancement of nonlinear horizontal diffusion in areas of high baroclinic activity. The simulated internal variability is dependent on the nature of the horizontal diffusion, with high-frequency variability being enhanced over the northern continents and low-frequency variability being increased (decreased) over the Pacific (Atlantic) Ocean when using nonlinear rather than linear diffusion. Locally reduced horizontal dissipation over Europe is compensated by increased dissipation owing to vertical diffusion, indicating the potential importance of nonlinear horizontal diffusion for gravity wave–resolving simulations. Inspection of the spectral energy reveals that the scheme needs to be modified in order to damp unbalanced ageostrophic motions at the smallest resolved scales more efficiently. A corresponding empirical modification is proposed and proves to work properly.

The first antitrust private action of vertical monopolistic agreement
By Susan Ning, Liu Jia and Hazel Yin
On 1 August 2013, the very same day as the fifth anniversary of China's Anti-Monopoly Law (AML), Shanghai Higher People's Court made a final judgment on the Rainbow v Johnson & Johnson case. It is the first case of vertical monopolistic agreement and the court overruled the judgment of the first instance and ruling for the appellant (i.e. the plaintiff). This case is also the first anti-monopoly case in China where the second-instance court reversed the judgment of the first-instance court and ruled in favour of the plaintiff.
The parties in dispute are Johnson & Johnson Medical (Shanghai), Johnson & Johnson Medical (China) (collectively J&J) and Beijing Ruibang Yonghe Science and Technology Trade Company, one of J&J's distributors. The issue in dispute is whether J&J set a minimum resale price in the distribution contract with Rainbow. Rainbow had been a business partner with J&J for 15 years as its distributor of staplers and suturing products.
According to the distribution contract, J&J authorised Rainbow to sell its product to hospitals in specific districts in Beijing with a minimum resale price. However, J&J discovered that Rainbow acquired distributorship in an unauthorised district by bidding at a price that was below the minimum resale price set by J&J. Consequently, J&J withheld Rainbow's deposit, terminated its distributorship in several hospitals and eventually terminated supply entirely…

Metro, Uptown Consortium planning $6.9M transit project
- Staff Cincinnati Business Courier
Metro and the Uptown Consortium are planning a new $6.9 million transit project to better serve Uptown customers.
Representatives of the transit agency, the consortium, downtown-based architecture firm Michael Schuster Associates and local leaders will announce details of the plan on Oct. 23, according to a media advisory issued Wednesday.
The so-called Uptown Transit District will be built in 2013, according to the advisory.
It will consist of four distinct locations through the Uptown area and will offer amenities such as:
• Sheltered boarding areas designed by Michael Schuster Associates;
• Real-time information;
• Integration with other Uptown employer and university shuttles;
• Way-finding and rider information kiosks; and
• Enhanced streetscaping and sidewalk improvements in some areas.
The Uptown Transit District will serve as the major connection and transfer point for 10 Metro routes and several shuttles offered by the University of Cincinnati and other Uptown employers.
Funding for the project comes from a federal earmark and federal Congestion Mitigation/Air Quality funds made available through the Ohio Department of Transportation and OKI Regional Council of Governments. Local funds also are being used, according to the advisory.

The Chicago Blackhawks handled the San Jose Sharks pretty easily on Friday night, beating them 4-1 to improve their record to 11-0-3. With that in mind, the most surprising moment of the game probably came when Jonathan Toews dropped the gloves with Joe Thornton in a rare captain vs. captain fight:
As of this writing, a whopping 91.8 percent of Hockey Fights' voters gave Jumbo Joe the win.
That's just the third fight of Toews' career; his other two scuffles came against David Backes and Martin Hanzal. (Apparently he likes taking on rugged centers.)
The 24-year-old forward seemed pretty happy to come out of the fight in one piece, according to what he said to NHL.com's Brian Hedger.
"I'm still here and still standing, so that's a good thing, right?" Toews said. "I felt it was something I needed to do to stand up for myself and I did it and I'm glad I did."
Thornton has more fights on his resume, although he's mellowed out since being shipped from Boston to San Jose.
Even if fights can give a team a boost, chances are high that the Sharks and Blackhawks would prefer their big-money leaders will avoid squabbles on most nights.

Three West Michigan communities consider merging into one
This week there will be an important hearing for those hoping to merge three West Michigan communities. A group of citizens is asking the state to allow the cities of Saugatuck, Douglas and Saugatuck Township to merge into one city.
Together, the three local units of government serve a little more than 5,000 people. The group supporting the merger points to an independent study that says it would save local taxpayers a million dollars a year.
On Wednesday the State Boundary Commission will decide if the petition to merge the municipalities is legal. A report from staff at the state's Department of Licensing and Regulatory affairs shows that it is.
If the commission agrees, they'll schedule a public hearing before voters would decide on the merge.
There are at least two other times a merger has happened in Michigan since the late 1960s. One was a small community in the western Upper Peninsula. The other was the City of Battle Creek and Battle Creek Township. A state staffer says the request is "uncommon".

I have gestational diabetes and I have absolutely no symptoms. In fact, I have it pretty badly. I am a healthy weight, have only put on 12 pounds (at 30 weeks) and my baby is not measuring big at this point. So, when I found out I have it, they said I'd be one of those people who just tweek your diet and exercise and everything is fine. Even though I follow the diet PERFECTLY, and I am on a way lower carb diet than most people with GD, my numbers keep going up. Not because I'm not doing everything right, but because my pancrease is freaking out with these pregnancy hormones. Wednesday I start insulin injections. Even at this point, when my numbers spike, I have no symptoms. I feel totally fine. I wouldn't have any clue that my baby is being flooded with glucose if I hadn't taken the test. My risk factors were that Im 35 (didn't have any problem in previous pregnancy) and I have some family members with type 2, but I assumed it was because they had terrible diets.

I did the screening for GD this pregnancy, but will not do it again in the future. I didn't have any risk factors, but ended up screening high. Then I was obligated to take the 3 hour diagnostic test by my midwife or risk losing my midwife. I had already tweaked my diet and had done some home blood testing that indicated my sugars were fine so I didn't think I should have to do the test. For the majority of people, GD can be managed with diet and exercise anyway. In the end, I took the test and my sugars were well within normal. Had I failed the test, I could have lost my midwife and my dream of a home birth. I certainly wouldn't have risked a home birth if I had GD that could not be managed through diet and exercise. However, it seemed to me that my midwife felt that the diagnosis itself might be enough to have my care transferred. The entire exercise was very stressful and I wouldn't elect to go through it again.

This conversation has been much better than I anticipated - I expected to read this & get angry at all the misinformation but I think it's been a pretty good conversation overall.
It seems to me that most people are more concerned about how they will be treated if given the label than anything else & I think that is more about who you have chosen as your care provider over anything else. This is my 2nd gd pregnancy & really I haven't had a terrible experience with care providers - slightly more monitoring than I would like but nothing invasive or upsetting has been pushed on me.
I really want to reiterate what pp have said that you may NOT experience other symptoms. I feel fine. I felt fine last time too. I get NO poor symptoms when my bg is high & my bg has too dangerously low before I feel bad. How you are feeling just simply is not good enough a measure.
As well, diet is not necessarily a big risk factor. With my first it probably contributed a bit but this time there was literally nothing the dietician could suggest to improve my diet. Many women develop gd without risk factors - they simply tell you you are at higher risk - they don't guarantee you will or will not develop it.

I have three risk factors... age, overweight and family history (grandparents siblings, so it's pretty far off) and decided against the test. I was actually planning on taking it this time because I'm a lot older this time around, and DH has type 2 so I know this baby will be more likely to have diabetes and I was thinking I might be able to improve it's chances of not having it if I try really hard not to have GD (keep your logic away from me!!)
The midwife asked why I don't just monitor myself at home, so that's what I've been doing. DH even had an extra monitor so it's MINE now. I test about 5X a day, one day a week to see how I'm doing. I am to test the following day if I get any high numbers. I've done a few random tests at opportune times... like after the kids and I went for a slurpee. My average is 5.2, and I don't often see a number higher than 6 (anything under 8.0 is good)
Often I get suddenly exhausted and feel like I need to lay down, and one day I tested my blood sugar when I felt like that. It was close to the tipping point to being too low, 4.2! Anytime that feeling hits if I check myself, it's in the low 4's... I wouldn't know this about myself if I had taken the 1 hour screening test. I'm being more careful not to forget lunch now!

I've chosen to do the test after thinking I wouldn't ever agree to it, for several reasons:
DH and I sat down and did some research, and contrary to what you would think, it seems like -most- people don't show any symptoms until the birth or around there. So you could very well have it, and not know.
My doctor does the test with no preparation-- no extra drink, no fasting, so crazy restrictions- it's just done as part of a normal blood draw.
I'm terrified of needles, but even worse with finger pricks- I get anxiety attacks even thinking about them- had my doctor insisted on the test being a prick, I would have said no, but was willing to compromise on the blood draw.
I want to return home ASAP after the birth (hopefully within 12 hours), and logic serves that having the results from this test will make the ped feel better about releasing us early-- I'm willing to have blood drawn for that.
I think it's all about weighing the pros and cons and how it will affect your pregnancy and your choices. For us, it was worth it.

I can say I was glad I'd had the test done with him. I did not even come close to scoring in the GD range and while not necessary, it was nice to know he was (and still is) just big.
Having said all of that... At no point for either of the GD tests I took was I *ever* told to fast before hand. I actually ate a poptart (no, hot tamale mama you are not alone) on the way to DS2's test and cookie dough to DS1 tests. I wonder if fasting or not fasting can have adverse effects? Anyone know?

So, a non-fasting test is required for the screening glucose test. This test will not provide you with a diagnosis and many women will screen positive despite not having GD. It's usually a simple test involving one blood draw and either drinking a glucose test or eating a high carb meal. If you screen positive, you will be required to do the 3 hour fasting test which involves fasting for 10-12 hours and then getting three blood draws and drinking a much higher dose of glucose. This test can be quite uncomfortable - many people feel faint and vomit. Eating a high carb meal directly before doing the non-fasting test can result in your blood sugars being much higher than they normally would and can cause you to screen positive. This is why the non-fasting test is considered the "gold standard" for diagnosis diabetes, whether gestational or not.
And yes, managing GD is not simply about not eating sugar - it's about eating the right carbs in the right combination. A diagnosis of GD involves a consult with a nutritionist to develop a meal plan to manage it. If it's not managed with diet, then insulin is prescribed. Where I live, midwives can't manage patients who require insulin and thus any diagnosis of GD requires that they at minimum consult with an OB, an endocrinologist, and a nutritionist.

Cheshire Cop Returns With New Skills
The New Haven Register reports that Cheshire Police Sgt. Fred Jortner is back with the department after spending four years the Statewide Narcotics Task Force.
For the past four years, Cheshire Police officer Fred Jortner has spent his time investigating drug cases for the Statewide Narcotics Task Force.
But now Jortner, newly made a sergeant, will be using his skills back here in Cheshire, the New Haven Register reports.
On Friday, Jortner was promoted in a ceremony at the Cheshire Police Department, marking his return to the department where he'll now oversee the overnight shift, according to the report.
Jortner's return comes at a time when the department needs him most. It's down several people due to resignations and retirements, but also gained three more officers Friday, according to the post.

Rondo: I wanted to make a point |
05.07.09 at 12:28 am ET |
Rajon Rondo sat in his locker before Game 2 Wednesday night and was asking reporters if he thought he could be more aggressive.
Whether rhetorical or not, the most important answer came from Rondo himself on the court.
Rondo, with 18 assists, 15 points and 11 rebounds, became just the second player in team history to record three triple-doubles in a postseason and the first since Larry Bird in 1986 as the Celtics cruised, 112-94, over the Magic to tie the Eastern Conference semifinal at 1-1.
But still, Rondo wasn't completely satisfied afterward.
"Probably like a B-plus," Rondo said when asked to grade his night. "It really wasn't my 'A' game. I really didn't shoot the ball well. I tried to get guys open. I was trying to do the intangible things on the floor. My offensive game wasn't flowing for me. Just trying to pick it up defensively and get my guys going early."
But the loudest statement he made came in the third quarter. After missing no fewer than three floating runners within 10 feet of the basket in the first half, Rondo came up with a different strategy. And he made Dwight Howard and the Magic frontcourt his victims in the process.
With 1:40 left in the third quarter, he took a pass from Kendrick Perkins and drove from the top of the key down a vacated lane to the basket and slammed the ball through, electrifying the crowd in the process.
"I was just tired of Dwight challenging my shots and I was struggling with my floater so I just wanted to take it to the basket pretty strong," Rondo said.
And how.
"First of all, Perk passes to E (House) and then E had (Mickael) Pietrus running at him and I see Dwight and Rashard (Lewis) under the basket as soon as I got it," Rondo recalled. "I was like, 'I've got to go strong.' My flow wasn't going at the time so I wanted to go up and attack the rim. I tried it last game but it wasn't successful. I hit the floor but this time I was determined to not hit the floor and go through."
The play was very indicative of just how much more aggressive the Celtics were than the Magic on this night.
"I don't know if they backed off but we just kept the pressure on them," Rondo said. "We put it on them for 48 minutes and then we kind of slacked to end the second quarter. They cut it to 15 I believe but other than that, we just kept the gas down and kept attacking defensively.
"It's all I thought about after the loss, was how sluggish I started the game. I can make a lot of excuses but I just didn't come out and play with great passion that first half and it was too late in the second half to try and get back. I wanted to come out tonight and make a point," Rondo added.

Best shape of his mid-30s.

I'm a Phillies fan, so take my comment with a grain of salt, but I would love for Roy to come back and be the pitcher he has been for the last decade (or even 95% of that).
4. Edmundo got dem ol' Kozma blues again mama
Posted: February 13, 2013 at 04:04 PM (#4369026)He has been a joy, and while not at the Clemens-Maddux-Pedro level, he certainly is a HoF level pitcher, IMO.
JRVJ, Halladay is a class act all the way and pure joy to watch, if you like to watch pitchers pitch. He has a touch of the nasty towards umps, which is kind of fun too.
5. Austin
Posted: February 13, 2013 at 06:00 PM (#4369130)
I agree. The game of baseball is better off when Halladay is in top form. Before his injury problems last year, he was one of my favorite pitchers to watch (Cliff Lee was another, for similar reasons).
6. the Hugh Jorgan returns
Posted: February 13, 2013 at 07:44 PM (#4369181)He has been a joy, and while not at the Clemens-Maddux-Pedro level, he certainly is a HoF level pitcher, IMO. Well not many MLB pitchers have ever been at the level of those 3 guys, that's a very high bar. I too concur though. Great to watch him work, love the way he seems to pitch to contact, yet still has that K/9 around 8. One more win and I definitely think he's a "hit by a bus" HOFer.
I would like to see him hit Free Agency and then sign to play for Toronto for a couple of more years before he retires.
8. Misirlou heard it on the X
Posted: February 14, 2013 at 11:34 AM (#4369544)Then go into the Hall of Fame with a Blue Jays hat. (As much as I love him getting that Perfect Game, I am afraid that it may change his HoF headwear.) (As much as I love him getting that Perfect Game, I am afraid that it may change his HoF headwear.) And the post-season no-hitter.
Unless he plays another 5 years at a high level with the Phils, he'll were a Jays cap in Cooperstowm. Right now with 90 starts with Philly compared with 287 in Toronto. Even on the Cy Young Awards, and a good postseason bounce for the Phils, but not near enough time spent.

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — Miami quarterback Jacory Harris is one of eight Hurricanes who has been declared ineligible after a university investigation found that the players likely committed NCAA violations by associating with booster Nevin Shapiro, said a person with knowledge of the process.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Thursday because no one is authorized to discuss the ongoing investigations by the university and the NCAA. Shapiro is a convicted Ponzi scheme architect serving a 20-year prison sentence for bilking $930 million from investors. He was a Miami booster for much of the past decade.
Simply being declared ineligible now doesn't necessarily mean a player would miss any time this season.
Under NCAA rules, when a school finds violations have occurred, the athlete typically is declared ineligible so the NCAA may begin a reinstatement process. The NCAA will also decide if that player needs to miss any games.
And the clock is running: Miami opens at Maryland on Sept. 5.
"The school must declare the student-athlete ineligible and then can seek reinstatement," NCAA spokesperson Stacey Osburn said.
Earlier Thursday, Miami coach Al Golden suggested that the depth chart might not be announced until Tuesday. All of the players implicated by Shapiro in a story published by Yahoo Sports were practicing Thursday, and have been on the field throughout the process.
"We'll make sure we practice enough guys because we really don't know what the future brings," Golden said. "Hopefully we'll find out pretty quickly here in the near future if there are any penalties or suspensions, and we'll adjust accordingly."
Golden said he has a plan for which personnel to use against the Terrapins. And another plan, just in case. And, well, another plan, in case things change some more.
"All of the above," Golden said.
Shapiro claims he provided dozens of Hurricanes, and some recruits who went elsewhere, with extra benefits from 2002 through 2010.
On Thursday, the 'Canes had a sense of business-as-usual. Sean Spence led the Hurricanes in a pre-practice chant that left some onlookers doubled over in laughter. Harris took his spot at the front of a stretching group, a position typically reserved for starters.
"Any projections or anything like that, all it is is speculation," Golden said.
Spence and Harris are among two of the biggest names wrapped up in the scandal — Spence is considered by many to be Miami's best defensive player and one of the top linebackers in the ACC. Harris has played 36 games at quarterback for the Hurricanes in his first three seasons.
University officials haven't commented publicly on the specifics of the process. Miami President Donna Shalala said this week that 15 student-athletes — she did not specify names or teams — were being investigated by university compliance personnel. Shapiro told Yahoo Sports that he provided benefits to 72 athletes, 65 of whom played football for Miami. Of those, 12 are current football players, and one is a member of the men's basketball team.
"We're going about our business," Golden said. "Obviously some of the players that are alleged to have done something are guys that have played a lot of football for us, so obviously there's going to be some adjustments if there are suspensions. Other than that, we're just moving forward."
The other football players named by Shapiro to Yahoo Sports are Vaughn Telemaque, Ray Ray Armstrong, Travis Benjamin, Aldarius Johnson, Marcus Forston, Olivier Vernon, Marcus Robinson, Adewale Ojomo, Dyron Dye and JoJo Nicholas.

Multi-layer metal gasket
Image Number 5 for
United States Patent #6206381
A metal gasket is disclosed in which a sealing stress exerted on a deck-surface from any one of confronting bead plates is dispersed slantwise along the direction leaving its associated cylinder bore aperture so that the cylinder bores are protected from deformation owing to the high sealing stress occurring in the open-end portions of the cylinder bores. The bead plates have sealing beads confronting flanges of an first intermediate plates at their borderlines smaller radially of their associated cylinder bore apertures while confronting the first intermediate plate, less in thickness than the flanges, at their borderlines larger radially of their associated apertures. The sealing stress on the deck-surfaces of the cylinder block and cylinder liner due to deformation of the beads may be dispersed uniformly over the flanges to thereby reduce the influence of the sealing stress on the liner section of the cylinder liner.

SACRAMENTO, CALIF. (AP) - Authorities have issued a felony arrest warrant for comedian Katt Williams related to a police chase in California.
The Sacramento County Sheriff's Department told KCRA-TV ( http://bit.ly/STauwW) the warrant issued Thursday is for reckless driving.
The California Highway Patrol says Williams fled officers on a three-wheeled motorcycle on Nov. 25 after being spotted driving on a sidewalk near a downtown Sacramento hotel.
The CHP said Williams was asked to stop and refused, leading to the pursuit.
The CHP says Williams nearly hit five people during the chase.
Williams' representatives did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

'Man of Steel' not for the Reeve hearted
Aside from my own enjoyment of many strong tales where good triumphs over evil, I've never been 100 percent behind the concept of hero worship.
'Warm Bodies' a fresh munch on romantic comedy
When it comes to a list of the world's easiest jobs, I'd have to place coming up with dialogue for zombies near the top of that list.
'Escape from Planet Earth' crashes on planet bland
For all of the classic adventures we've rooted for no less than a thousand times in all the familiar fables, I never tire of an attempt to try and flip the roles of the characters in a slightly different twist.
'Anna Karenina' artsy, but a clever ballet of commentary
Since the first days film captured the wonder and imagination of audiences across the world there has always been examples of how the format has borrowed from its roots in live theater.
'The Last Stand' worth sitting down for
Admiration for acting may always be heaped in plentiful supply on those who manage to pick the year's best films to be a part of, but there are certain personalities who regularly carry any project whether it is a box office smash or bomb.
'Epic' almost, but not quite
As an avid film buff who often favors animation over live action, 2013 has so far been a year barely pinging the radar.
'Star Trek Into Darkness' enterprises on improvements
Despite an overall dismissal and thumbing of the nose of science fiction by the major award circuits throughout the history of film (and beyond if you throw in years of geek bullying from print or radio), one element that has not been denied ultimate glory quite as often is the musical force behind them.
'Silver Linings Playbook' finds structure in mental script
Only in Hollywood magic land can the stressful and never hilarious situation of dealing with violently mentally ill family members be turned into one of the most beloved comedy creations ever.
'Iron Man 3' proves nothing is sacred with fresh twists
In a time when God-like status is granted to those who can obtain the franchise tag for a film series, the true test of creative power is not falling flat when that third or later chapter is born.
'42' offers decent tribute to sports legend
Finding the right words, let alone an entire film script worthy enough to honor some of history's most poignant chapters is not a task I envy for any writer.

Final phase begins on Bay Bridge
raw video: Caltrans held a press conference about Bay Bridge closure
People nostalgic about old Bay Bridge
SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- Less than 24 hours after the Bay Bridge closed to traffic, a Caltrans spokesperson told reporters Thursday afternoon that they are "very pleased" with how work on the Bay Bridge is progressing and that work is on schedule. Grinding, paving and demolition work will continue on the bridge Thursday evning and into Friday.
Work on getting the new eastern span ready for traffic has been underway since moments after the bridge closed last night. Grinding and paving is exactly what it sounds like. Crews around the toll plaza are taking the asphalt down anywhere from two to six inches lower and then paving it to put in a new drainage system.
One thousand feet of the original westbound approach of the bridge is currently being demolished.
"The demolition on this side, we're right on track," said Greg Allen with MCM Construction. "We've got 90 percent of the deck knocked loose and we've removed probably about 17 beams from the structure."
"After this work is completed they're going to put in about a 600 foot temporary bike path connector that's going to allow us to open up the bike path and the pedestrian path to the public at noon on Tuesday," Caltrans spokesperson Andrew Gordon said.
A thin protective coating is being put down on the roads entering and leaving the tunnel to create a smooth driving surface.
"The key thing here is construction is going very well," Gordon said. "We're on schedule and the work that started last night at 8 p.m. -- the demolition, the grinding, and paving -- that's what we're going to be seeing for the next 24 hours. And we don't see anything ahead of else that we think will cause us to think that we're going to be pushed off schedule."
At peak times there are 400 workers on the bridge, working in shifts 24-hours a day, aiming for the scheduled Tuesday 5am opening.
Caltrans wasting no time demolishing old span
With the race on to open the new eastern span of the Bay Bridge, Caltrans is also wasting no time starting demolition of the old one.
Brian Maroney is in charge of taking the old span apart -- a task that's tougher than it sounds. The 80-year-old steel is covered in lead paint, so they can't just drop it in the bay. It's rusted and brittle, an entirely different material from the steel we use today.
"You cannot weld on most of this steel; you can only put rivets or bolts in it," Maroney said.
But Caltrans has found a way to demolish the old bridge -- one piece at a time, starting from the middle and working their way out.
"We are going to dismantle the bridge essentially opposite of the way they put it together," Caltrnas bridge engineer Mike Whiteside said.
Some of the steel parts will be recycled, but some will stick around for old time's sake, either in a museum or in a park to commemorate the old bridge.
Commuters find their way around Bay Area without bridge
BART is a popular alternative for commuters who typically use the Bay Bridge. BART officials say Wednesday was their busiest day ever, with ridership at 427,554. From midnight to 10 a.m. Thursday, ridership was at 161,166. They say it's an increase of 30,682 compared to the same morning last year.
BART is operating trains around the clock while the bridge is closed. Fourteen different BART stations have trains running once an hour, day and night. All of those trains meet at MacArthur station. Several people told us Thursday they only have to worry about it for the day, because they have Friday off.
AC Transit is running extra buses for service to four East Bay BART stations. This includes West Oakland, MacArthur, Coliseum and North Berkeley.
There are additional ferries crossing the bay as well. They're carrying about 15 percent more passengers than usual, on special schedules.
The San Francisco Bay Ferry service reported a 57 percent increase in ridership Thursday morning.
Bay Bridge Troll
The Bay Bridge troll will have a home on the new bridge. The troll is mounted on the side of the old bridge and its was fate uncertain until Thursday.

Coffee and Walnut LogIngredients
InstructionsYield: 6-8 servings. Preheat oven to 200 0C / 400 0F / Gas 6. Grease and line an 18 x 28 cm (7 x 11 inch) Swiss roll tin. Put the eggs and sugar in a large bowl and stand it over a pan of hot water. Whisk together until doubled in volume and thick enough to leave a thin trail on the surface when the whisk is lifted. Fold in 1 tablespoon of the coffee essence and the walnuts. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 8-10 minutes until risen and firm to the touch. Place a sheet of greaseproof paper over a damp tea-towel. Quickly turn out the cake on to the paper and trim the edges. Roll up the cake with the paper inside. Leave to cool for about 30 minutes, covered with the damp tea-towel. Whisk the cream until stiff, then fold in the remaining coffee essence. When cold, unroll the coffee log and remove the paper. Gently spread with the filling and re-roll. Do not worry if it cracks slightly. Dust with icing sugar before serving. Images from other cooksYour Recently Viewed RecipesLove these recipes?

Subject: RE: [CentralTexasGeocachers] Comments on DNF and "the walk of shame"I usually search until I run out of time due to an upcoming time commitment that I can't control. Occasionally I break off the search earlier if I conclude that I'm not likely to find it no matter how long I search, if I find out I don't have some required special equipment, or if there's another cache I really want to find that day. Running out of water, encountering hordes of mosquitoes, or injuries not requiring a splint or tourniquet, are generally not grounds for quitting.I've never called for hints while out in the field, mostly because it's usually a solo activity for me. Just me against the cache. If I have the kids along, I'm likely to decode the hint sooner, but never before searching for a while. I use GPX Spinner and Plucker, so have only the last 5 logs, and occasionally wish I had more, but I don't usually read the logs before starting the search. No wireless internet.Recently I started posting DNFs where I would have posted a note before. In the beginning I reserved the DNF for times when I was sure beyond a reasonable doubt that I had checked every potential hiding spot in the area. I got this idea from something I read on one of the forums. But now I post a DNF if I gave it a really good shot and didn't find it. If I run out of time or light, or find that I don't have some special equipment that may be required, I post a note, unless I think it's unlikely I'll be back to try again.My favorite caches NOT to find on the first attempt were Third Moon from Essiada and the dearly departed Noctis Labyrinthis.--Suchmann-----Original Message-----I'm currently working on the 2nd draft of my geocaching murder mystery

this topic:
Discuss your feelings when you search but cannot find the cache. How
long do you look before you conclude that it is not there? To what
lengths will you go to get a hint while out in the field? Decrypt the
hint? Read past logs? Call a previous finder? Call the cache owner?
Any other extreme lengths to get a hint? Anyone bringing wireless
internet out into the field (PCS/cellular or 802.11?) to pull up cache
pages and logs? When all hints are exhausted, how do you feel when you
have to do the 'walk of shame' and then go home to post a DNF? Do you
post a DNF? Or do you just post a note? Why?

Teatro Malibran Review
La Fenice's more intimate sister venue was built by the powerful Grimani family in 1677, opening as the Teatro Grimani a San Gristostomo and soon becoming one of Europe's most famous theaters. The theater at first hosted theatrical productions, including many works by Metastasio and, later, Goldoni. It became an opera house in the early 19th century and was renamed Malibran in 1835, after Maria Garcia Malibran, the great soprano of her day. It was converted into a movie theater in 1927 and then reopened for live performances in 2001 after lengthy restoration.

The Northeast's trains of tomorrow
John Latta | April 7, 2013
Amid all the hot air and bluster that are much of the debate on the future of rail today, here comes something interesting – a more detailed plan of action for the Northeast Corridor (NEC).
Not only a plan, but something of an insight into how thinking at the highest planning levels might turn into action not only in the Northeast but in other urbanized parts of the country. The Feds are looking at more than a dozen plans to upgrade the NEC, from simple moves to bullet trains, from improving some services to dumping others or creating new ones.
It's not exactly a canary in a coalmine scenario, but any early warning of how the federal transportation bureaucracy plans to approach changing something as major as the Northeast transportation corridor has to be useful to planners and engineers trying to figure out what they may have to deal with in the future.
And there's always the chance for input to help shape the final blueprint.

Baywatch babes not welcome here
Despite tempting offers from TV producers, Avalon remains in the hands of serious surfers, writes Simon Richmond
Until last October, the 9,200-strong community of Avalon, some 18 miles north of the city centre near the tip of the Pittwater peninsula, was best known as a surfing hot spot and the first place in Australia where inflatable rescue boats - or "rubber duckies" as they're known down under - were used by a surf life-saving club. Then the Baywatch juggernaut rumbled into Sydney for three weeks of filming, three days of which were at Avalon, and things haven't been the same since.
So taken with Avalon were the producers of Baywatch - seen by an estimated billion people each week in 141 countries - that they decided they'd like to move there permanently. An application to film during the winter months of April to October was lodged with the local council. It had the support of the surf club, which got a fresh paint-job out of last year's filming and is in line for substantial structural improvements if the deal goes ahead.
Not everyone was happy, though, as posters around town and a recently covered-over graffiti ("Baywatch f--- off") across the orange and sea- green surf club walls testified. An Anti-Baywatch Action Group was set up, drumming up a storm of protest before a public meeting held on 24 February, at which two thirds of those present (more than a fifth of the town's population) voted against Baywatch setting up there. Bill Bryson, if he is around, could not have asked for better material.
It now looks almost certain that Baywatch is destined to be filmed up the coast in Queensland, but it is easy to see why the show's producers were so keen on Avalon - even though the sand at Bondi and several other better known Sydney beaches is finer and more golden. Avalon's beach sweeps in a graceful curve from the rock baths at the southern end, where mums and toddlers splash, to the lofty, rocky outcrop, the Hole in the Wall, at the north. Norfolk Pines, sand dunes and the surf club, its Venice- Beach colour scheme now making it appear, as one resident so charmingly put it, "like an ice lolly on a stick", complete the picture. The crashing surf is also legendary. Adrian, blond and bronzed, is a real-life Baywatch lifeguard, keeping an eye out for surfers and swimmers in possible danger. "This is no place for inexperienced surfers," he warns, which counts me, and I suspect Bill, out. If you're handy with a board, Adrian recommends hitting the waves in the morning, when the wind is offshore, and preferably mid-week when there are fewer people on the beach.
A minute's walk from the beach, where Avalon Parade crosses Old Barrenjoey Road, a cluster of shops is the nucleus of the community. This is a seriously foodie place, where you can buy organic bananas or luscious mangos, freshly made pasta and award-winning breads and cakes. The petits fours from the patisserie La Banette are reckoned to be the best outside Paris, and there are more cafes than you can shake a surfboard at. There's a middle-aged bloke with a beard in one cafe, but it's not Bill.
In Searls health-food store, a family business for 33 years, Geoff Searls fills me in on local history. The community was given its name by Mr A J Small, who bought the bushland in 1918 for development. "He saw it as a retreat from the busy city, like Arthur saw Avalon as a retreat from battle," explains Searls. Avalon has been attracting city escapees and artists ever since.
Media attention is nothing new for Avalon, though. Hollywood dropped by with a giant squid for the B-movie The Beast several years ago, and as any self-respecting soap addict knows, Avalon is just down the road from the Palm Beach location of Home and Away. At the Avalon Beach Hostel, owner Craig used to run Home and Away tours, but not any more. "Let's face it, it's only popular in the UK," he says, giving me directions to the house used for exterior shots only, in the neighbouring community of Clareville.
Instead, I cross the road to another Aussie institution, the RSL. Returning Services League clubs started off like the British Legion bars in the UK, but these days make their money from gambling on the "pokkies" or fruit machines. Avalon's RSL has 67 of them, a mini-Las Vegas. "I've lived here all my life and I want to see it happen," says the girl pulling the numbers for the meat raffle. For her, Baywatch is Avalon's big chance for the jackpot.
Even if the Baywatch battalions descend, solitude in the bush and quiet beaches are never far away in Avalon. The Ku-Ring-Gai Chase National Park, one of Sydney's favourite nature escapes, is across Pittwater. I hop on a bus up to Palm Beach and get off at the public wharf, from where hourly ferries make the rounds of three idyllic spots in the park. The first stop, The Basin (where there's a campsite), is the bay where the SS Lucinda anchored Easter weekend 1891, and negotiations began that would result in the Australian Constitution a decade later.
Returning to Avalon for a late- afternoon cuppa, I'm just disappointed not to have spotted Bill.
Express buses leave for Avalon from Wynard bus station (tel: 131 500). Sydney Harbour Seaplanes (tel: 1800 803 558) fly from Rose Bay to Pittwater.
Avalon Beach Hostel (tel: 0061-2-9918 9709) offers bunks in dormitories from A$18 (pounds 7) per night. Johah's (tel: 0061-2-9974 5599) offers double rooms from A$210 per night.

Hello, everyone! This is Tammy's assistant, Jae, here to announce something the two of us started kicking around as an idea when we saw how many followers Tammy was getting.
3,000 Follower Giveaway Celebration!
To celebrate passing this tumblr landmark, we're going to be giving away 5 signed copies of her books (one for each winner). Here's how it's going to work.
1. There will be 5 winners total. Each will get to pick ONE of Tammy's currently-published novels for signature.
2. You MUST be following her blog in order to participate. After all, this is a thank-you to all of those who pushed us over the 3,000 mark.
3. Each individual is allowed TWO entries, NO MORE. That's a reblog and a like.
4. Entries will be allowed until March 25th, and this post will be periodically reblogged on Tammy's tumblr until then to give everyone a fair shake.
5. Contest-only blogs will not be named winners.
On the 26th, I'll pick 5 usernames at random and message the winners. This means you have to have your ask boxes open at that time. Winners will need to get back to me within a week with the book that they want signed and where I should send it. If I don't receive a message from a winner within that week, or I can't reach them via ask, I'll pick someone new. Once I've heard from everyone, we'll post a public congratulation to let everyone know that the contest is over.
Good luck, and thank you all for being here!

Duncan consistently finds ways to amaze

Somewhere between the Kevin Garnett coronation, the Detroit Pistons revolution, and Shaquille O'Neal's first merengue lesson, Tim Duncan anonymously slid back into the practice gym and became the absolute best basketball player on the planet so far for the 2004-05 season.
He didn't try any new tricks like behind-the-back passes or reverse dunks. He didn't dye his hair or add any body ink or pierce any extremity. Nor did he demand a trade, fire his coach or get arrested for jay walking.
He practiced his bank shot. Then he practiced it some more. Sometime in between, he worked in a few free throws. He did what Tim Duncan does.
In case you missed it, the Spurs power forward took 17.1 shots per game last year. He took 17.1 shots per game the year he won his second MVP award and his second NBA title. Over his career, he's taken, well, 17.1 shots per game.
To put that in perspective, Tracy McGrady averaged 23.3 shots per game last year.
Garnett averaged 19.6 while also leading his team in rebounding, steals, blocks and minutes.
Kobe Bryant averaged 18.1 with Shaq in the lineup.
Peja Stojakovic, a player who took 6.8 three-pointers per game, averaged 17.1 shots per game.
Duncan, the most-polished player on the planet, was taking the same amount of shots per game as some Eastern European sharpshooter.
And speaking of that career, he's played seven NBA seasons, made seven All NBA first teams and seven All-Defensive squads. He's won two league MVP awards and two NBA titles. The surprising aspect is that Duncan has averaged only 22.8 points per game over that career and never more than 25.5 in any one season. Those numbers are good, perhaps, great, but not immortal. They are not fitting for a guy described by the first sentence of this paragraph.

3.1/5 rDev -9.4%

Poured on-tap and served in a tumbler pint, the beer is a dark brown color with auburn highlights and no head whatsoever. The nose is subtle, with nutty sweet tones and a touch of roasting. Flavors are roasty, as well, with some nut sweetness and a touch of smoke. Subtle flavors on a thin body. The aftertaste is sweet, with hints of caramel. Slick, clean finish. Flavors are decent, but the beer lacks any body of punch. Nothing major, but just lacking substance for me.
Serving type: on-tap

I had this beer from a growler at a recent fantasy football draft. This was my first beer and the only one I actually paid attention to throughout the event.
Poured cold into a pint glass the brew exhibits a cocoa brown hue with fluffy tan head of .5 cm foaming up and fading to an edge layer quickly. Aroma is chocolate malt, some toffee almost butterscotch notes like a werthers candy. Roasted notes mix in as well.
The first sip reveals an average body with fine gentle carbonation.
Flavor is as nose advertised with little hop presence and malt driven brew.
Toffee and chocolate mix with roasted malt coming through on the finish. I do get mild earthy hops in the background at the finish but these are mild and easily missed. The beer is well crafted, and easy to drink. I enjoyed several pints while I drafted a dominant team. Next time in the area I will make a point to hit up the brewpub itself and try some draft offerings and meal.
