Polish club supporting their team-mate in her fight against cancer
Kasia Mozdzen was forced to stop her career when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease
Bialystok, Poland, November 23, 2012 – As part of an ongoing campaign to help to Kasia Mozdzen, a talented volleyball player who was diagnosed with cancer at the end of 2011, her friends from her former club, AZS Bialystok, and football players from Jegielonia Bialystok, put together a calendar that is now on sale.
Mozdzen is a 22-year-old wing-spiker from Lodz. She began her career with LKS Lodz, where she played until 2009. She was briefly signed with Aleksandrow Lodzki until, in 2010, she moved to Bialystok and made her debut in the premier Polish league.
Returning to Lodz at the end of 2011, Mozdzen was forced to stop her career after one match. She was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease.
The campaign is being led by Wiola Wlaszczuk, Gosia Wlaszczuk, Anna Mackiewicz, Michal Obrycki and Kamil Grykos.
The calendar is being sold at AZS Bialystok matches, through the official online store of Jagiellonia Bialystok Football club, and from the official Jagiellonia "Jaga Shop" and "Jaga Fan Shop" stores.

Right Cooking Oil Key to Avoiding Trans FatsPosted: Saturday, December 27, 2003Many Americans are searching for low-fat cooking ingredients as rising obesity in the United States has turned attention to an overlooked but widespread source of dietary fat: vegetable oils. Those little bombs are "trans fats," which the government has deemed dangerous enough to require labeling in U.S. food products beginning in 2006. "Trans fats are bad fats. The less trans fat you and I eat, the healthier we will be," Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson said on July 9 when he announced the government's labeling requirement. "Trans fats can no longer lurk, hidden, in our food choices," FDA commissioner Mark McClellan told reporters. But how can Americans track their trans fat consumption before 2006, when the nationwide labeling begins? Trans fats are created by a chemical process during manufacturing called hydrogenation. It gives products longer shelf life. Trans fats raise "bad cholesterol" and decrease "good cholesterol" - and are in 90 percent of cookies and 75 percent of the snack chips that Americans eat. In fact, any food label that now lists "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil" includes trans fats. In response to the 2006 deadline, the food industry - from ice cream makers to bakers to frozen food manufacturers-- has made pledges to cut out trans fats. On the same day the government announced the labeling mandate, Frito-Lay, a division of PepsiCo Inc., said it had already begun eliminating trans fats from Doritos, Tostitos and Cheetos, three core brands. The company also said it had begun early this year changing packaging to give the trans fat content. Also in July, the world's largest vegetable oil processor, Archer Daniels Midland, launched a line of zero and reduced trans fat oils and shortenings that can be used in baking, frying, confectionery, snack and cereal products. As the food industry scrambles to find healthier oils, nutritionists say the best that consumers can do right now is to choose the healthiest cooking oil possible, and - equally important - limit overall consumption. "If you were to rank all the oils that are best to cook with, certainly the two or three that rank highest would be canola, olive and perhaps safflower oil," said Dr. Frederick Hatfield, president of The International Sports Sciences Association and author of more than 60 books on nutrition, fitness and performance nutrition. "For my money, I would want to find a source for cooking oil that has not been over-processed and refined and that is still very high in mono-unsaturated fats," he said. Saturated fatty acids have only single carbon-to-carbon bonds and are the least reactive chemically, while unsaturated fatty acids have one (mono) or more (poly) carbon-carbon bonds. Corn, sunflower and soybean oils are examples of vegetable oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids - the kinds we have been advised to avoid. "I would put olive and flaxseed oil toward the top, and going on down the list: canola, peanut, soybean, safflower, sunflower," the ADA's O'Rourke said. "(But) while vegetable oils are preferable to animal fats, quantity consumed still needs to be limited," she stressed. "More is not always better." Source: Diabetes In Control.com. |

Tony Kushner told Kingswood Oxford students on Friday that the screenplay for "Lincoln," for which he was nominated for an Oscar, took him six years to produce.
"It's taken more out of me than anything I've ever written," Kushner said in response to a student question about his toughest project.
Kushner said he had written thousands of pages that could be adapted into films about different periods of Lincoln's presidency. But he said he doubted anyone could play the role as well as Daniel Day-Lewis, who was also nominated for an Oscar and is presumed to be the favorite for Best Actor.
"I don't think I'll ever want to see anyone [else] play him," Kushner said.
As Kingswood Oxford's Baird English Symposium speaker for 2013, Kushner spoke to upperclassmen at the private school in West Hartford. Named for former KO English department chair Warren Baird, the symposium's annual writer-in-resident program has included E.L. Doctorow, Gwendolyn Brooks, Joyce Carol Oates, Arthur Miller, John Updike, and Jonathan Safran Foer.
Kushner — who won the Pulitzer for "Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes" — sat on stage and answered questions from a long line of students who have been studying his work this year.
By turns funny, self-deprecating and erudite, Kushner talked about autobiographical elements in his play "Caroline, or Change" and discussed how Shakespeare, Bertolt Brecht, Anton Chekhov and other playwrights had influenced his work. He said his favorite place to write was "in front of a box of Entenmann's chocolate chip cookies."
He also talked about how much he enjoyed working with Steven Spielberg, who directed "Lincoln," and said they were collaborating on another project together.
"I fought with him on the edit [for 'Lincoln'] all the way to October," Kushner said. "But he's a real collaborator."
When a student asked how much responsibility Kushner felt to make the film historically accurate, Kushner said he had read enough to become fluent "in Lincoln."
"If I'm writing historical fiction, I have a responsibility not to change anything that would fundamentally alter the historical narrative," he said.
In response to the movie, he added, "100,000 associate professors have come out of the woodwork" to question this point or that, but "we did not make any significant errors."

So, you want to codify Biblical law. I have a question for you. Can you prove there's such a thing as God? That was rhetorical. Of course you can't. So, you want to codify the laws of a god you can't even prove actually exists. Does this make sense?
I have another question for you. Why wouldn't a god who damns people to Hell for not believing in him prove his existence? If there was such a thing as God, it would be easy for him to erase all doubts of his existence. So, why doesn't he?

The homepage of my website doesn't sjow any picture at all on ONLY on IE.
It's really wierd. I've checked the url and everything, used dreamweaver to insert the image by itself, but still doesn't work.
my local folder is in desktop, TechnoGate/*thats were index.html and all the pages are*/images
so when, for example, I have this code:

It doesn't work. I've tried checking the url and changing it in almost all possible ways, but with no success.
I wish someone can help me.
**problem occurs with IE only!! , and another weird thing, the only image that shows up is this:

(this ul has 6 other images at the excect same type that i insert in the excect same way, but only this one shows up.) It's so weird...
I think I've found some key information.
See, the website I'm working on was live' and I jsut wanted to edit it. So when I actually downloaded the index.html from the live website and insert it to my folder, It still did'nt work! (live it works totally fine)
So now I guess that we can assume that the problem is in my root folder. Any ideas of what is the problem?
What do you mean? I got it on my desktop.. I can upload it now because Its not finished.
The live one before the change is that:http://technogate.ca/ , which [should] work fine on IE as well.
I'm pretty sure it's something with my root folder in desktop, but I just can't figure out what.

Excectly. all the folders are the same tho. (I've uploaded the live one 2 weeks ago, now I came back to edit it.)
The file/folder structure that you downloaded and the one on your desktop cannot be the same if the live site shows the images.
Have you downloaded ALL the remote site and viewed that?
No, the folder I'm talking about is the excect same one as I uploaded. The weird thing is that on the about-us, or service and all these other pages the pictures works fine with IE. It's just the index.html that has the problem.
Another intersting thing - I even tried to insert a photo using img src=" *browse..letting dreamweaver locate the image alone* but it STILL didn't work. Doesnt make any sense.
I can't upload this file to my web hosting since the web is running and I cant disable it for testing.. so any other ideas? *consider that even dreamweaver's browse doesnt work*

No need to disable anything.
Just upload the page to a temporary folder on the website, then pull it down when it's fixed.
Lol. When I upload it to my hosting, it works. As you can see: (I've only uploaded some of the images)
Doesn;t make sense at all. Hope someone would have an answer.

Two-photon fluorescence correlation spectroscopy through a dual-clad optical fiber
Optics Express, Vol. 16, Issue 17, pp. 12640-12649 (2008)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (157 KB)
We report on the utilization of a dual-clad optical fiber for two-photon excited fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). High excitation efficiency is obtained by sending prechirped ultrafast pulses through the single-mode core of the fiber, while the fluorescence collection efficiency is enhanced because of the larger numerical aperture of the inner cladding. We show that the utilization of a dual-clad fiber is critical for ultrasensitive two-photon fluorescence detection. Our system has the ability to detect fluorescent nanospheres as small as 12 nm in radius. Quantum dots of radius 7 nm are also measured and show excellent signal to noise ratio. The particle sizes obtained from the fiber FCS system were confirmed by measurements using a commercial dynamic light scattering (DLS) system.

Highlights of the live Linux landscape
Many fine live Linux distributions are waiting for you right now on the Internet. The right choice depends on what you need.
A Linux live distribution is a complete operating system that starts and works exclusively from a CD or DVD. You can boot the live Linux system from any PC as long as the system supports the hardware. Because a live system runs from the CD or DVD drive, live distros don't alter the contents of the hard disk. Windows users who are thinking of switching to Linux can use a live distro to try Linux without disturbing their configuration. You can also use a live distro to test whether a particular computer supports Linux or to recover a damaged system.

Twitter's 'Nearby' could reveal who's tweeting, well, nearby

Twitter is apparently testing a feature for its mobile app that would show you who's tweeting nearby -- whether you follow them or not -- and what they're posting to the microblogging site.
The feature -- which, according to the Wall Street Journal's Digits blog, is actually called Nearby -- would work only for people who've opted to share their location info with Twitter. Digits describes it thusly:

Take a trip back in time to when star Monsters, Inc. employees Mike Wazowski (voice of Billy Crystal) and James P. "Sulley" Sullivan (voice of John Goodman) were just two promising young students at Monsters University in this frightfully fun Disney/Pixar prequel. Long before they were lurking in closets for a living, Mike and Sulley were just two Scaring majors at Monsters University, dreaming of the day they would make children shriek in terror. When their heated competition to be the most fearsome in their class gets out of hand, however, Mike and Sulley find themselves ejected from the prestigious Scare Program, and they are forced to seek the aid of their oddball friends in order to get their education back on track. Dan Scanlon (Tracy) takes the directorial reigns for this prequel featuring additional vocal contributions by Steve Buscemi, Dave Foley, and Julia Sweeney. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Foundation 150 153rd Ave, Suite 300 Madeira Beach, FL 33708 |
Losing Sleep Triggers Abnormal Glucose MetabolismPosted: Friday, September 21, 2007According to a new study, Even a small amount of sleep loss can cause changes in hormonal glucose regulation, with a strong effect on pancreatic islet secretion, a decrease in glucagon levels and a slight reduction in C-peptide levels. "The results strongly support the notion that sleep plays a pivotal role in the regulation of metabolic functions in humans," reports Dr. Sebastian M. Schmid and associates at the University of Luebeck, Germany.
To investigate the neuroendocrine mechanisms involved in acute sleep deprivation and blood glucose regulation, Dr. Schmid's group enrolled 10 healthy young men in a randomized, crossover study.
The researchers examined the effect of sleep deprivation on plasma concentrations of hormones involved in glucose metabolism, including insulin, glucagon, C-peptide, ACTH and cortisol levels, before and during a hypoglycemic clamp procedure. Subjects were assessed during a basal rest period, after one night of sleep deprivation and after one night of regular sleep. Dr. Schmid's team reports that sleep deprivation was associated with a decrease in basal glucagon levels and, to a lesser degree, C-peptide levels. During the resulting hypoglycemia, "the glucagon increase relative to baseline was enhanced and the relative decrease in C-peptide was reduced. Also, the relative increase in norepinephrine was reduced," the researchers write. Sleep deprivation had no significant effect on the other hormones measured. "Sleep deprivation markedly increased hunger during basal rest, resulting in a dampened relative increase during hypoglycemia," the research team reports. "Unexpectedly, despite distinct alterations in basal secretory activity, the absolute amplitude of hormonal counter-regulation and hunger responses to hypoglycemia was not affected by sleep deprivation." Dr. Schmid and colleagues propose that, "Hunger represents an important warning signal of emerging hypoglycemia, eliciting food intake that counteracts a further decline in circulating glucose levels. A reduced ability to adequately perceive hypoglycemia-triggered increases in hunger that add to the orexigenic impact of sleep loss per se might thus elevate the risk of severe hypoglycemia in these patients under conditions of sleep debt," Source: Diabetes In Control: J Clin Endocrin Metab 2007;92:3044-3051 |

From WorstPreviews.com comes word that NBC has just cast Jerry O'Connell to play Herman Munster in the upcoming TV series, "Mockingbird Lane," which is a reboot of the "Munsters." The actor will be the patriarch of the family, who was played by Fred Gwynne in the original 1960s comedy.
O'Connell joins Eddie Izzard, who will play the powerful and quick-witted Grandpa Munster, and Mason Cook will play Eddie, the werewolf son. Bryan Fuller, creator of "Pushing Daisies," is producing. Bryan Singer (Superman Returns, X-Men) is directing the pilot episode.
The reboot is said to be an edgier and slightly darker take exploring origins of Herman and Lily Munster and how they arrived at the 1313 Mockingbird Lane address.

400m hurdles indoorhello,
I have a question, I was searching for a 400mh competition for this indoor season. is there someone who knows where I have to look? Greats, Bas [NL]
Re: 400m hurdles indoorThere was one run last year in Albuquerque.
http://www.wsucougars.com/sports/c-trac ... 12aaa.html Otherwise there are a few in Europe.
Re: 400m hurdles indoorI'm from the Netherlands so I search for runs in Europe. Do you know where i have to look there?
Re: 400m hurdles indoorThere were two 400H races in France last winter, one in Bordeaux and the other in Val-de-Reuil.
Re: 400m hurdles indoorhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkypUwdiiTw
I saw one in Birmingham this year (didn't take the video though). It was a bit of a mess.
Re: 400m hurdles indoorBest bet for January-February is to go to Australia.
Re: 400m hurdles indoorThe University of New Mexico contests the indoor 400 Hurdles each home meet. We have found it to be a real crowd pleaser. As we host the USA Indoor Championships and are allowed to place two exhibition events in the schedule I am thinking about putting that in as I am meet director. Really a lot of fun for the athletes. I put video up on youtube of our races last year.
Re: 400m hurdles indoor
After Bordeaux, Sánchez set the first of his "World Records" in Mondeville, before Val-de-Reuil.
Re: 400m hurdles indoor
Do it!! signed, former 400Her who woulda loved to have run it indoors (not that I didn't dread every single 400H (440y) race I ran)!
Re: 400m hurdles indoorAttention, basjer13:
Given that you seek competition in Europe, I suggest you look into the "Botnia Indoor Games" in mid-February at Korsholm [near Vaasa] in Finland. In recent years that meet, on a 400-meter indoor track, included indoor steeplechase with water jump. In my contacts with meet director Joakim Traskelin I gathered that he seems willing to experiment with different events.

Tamara Sytch
Date of Birth
December 7, 1972
Place of Birth
Even though he did not leave the company on the best of terms, Carlito is said to be returning to WWE at Wrestlemania 30 to induct his father Carlos Colon into the hall of fame. The belief is that his brother Diego and his cousin Fernando will also be a part of the induction ceremony as well. The induction announcement for Colon will be made during Smackdown this Friday.
March 13, 2014
Since the two of them have worked matches on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown over the last couple of weeks, WWE was concerned about putting Sheamus and Christian into a match at Wrestlemania 30, so there are now people backstage who are pushing for them to be added to the Andre the Giant memorial battle royal instead.
March 12, 2014
It looks like Kane and Big Show might be sneaking on to the Wrestlemania 30 card after all. Management has been planting the seeds to have them work a filler match at the pay per view, and the events at Smackdown was the start of that. The idea for the match has been around since February, but management had other priorities to take care of first.
March 11, 2014
While her character and routine have not exactly caught fire with the audience yet, WWE is said to be dedicated to giving Emma a legitimate chance at becoming a star in the divas division. Management is expected to continue giving her television time on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown for the time being.
March 10, 2014
While the company recently informed the developmental wrestlers that it will be harder to get called up to the main roster, that change does not appear to be affecting Mojo Rawley and WWE's desire to fast track him to Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. The belief is that he is the WWE NXT star that will some day be the headliner for the entire company.
March 10, 2014
"I don't know. You never really know what they're thinking. The original plan was to do three weeks of NXT and then go to Smackdown but then we got the email that basically what it said was you guys are great but we have a lot of Davey's and Eddie's right now. So we'd probably just put you in developmental to start out and we wouldn't do that when you've already been around the world making a living so you're free to pursue other interests. I thought at least they're being honest because they could have been yeah, you're in developmental and it's going to be great. Then you're down there for three years. I thought it was really respectful of them. Obviously it worked out for them and it worked out for us. We're both happy. It didn't really surprise me. I'm thankful for it." - Davey Richards discusses being rejected by the developmental program in WWE
March 10, 2014
In a rather interesting development, it has now been announced that CM Punk will be making his return to television next week. Unfortunately for WWE fans, however, it will not be done on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown. The former world heavyweight champion will be making another appearance on the Talking Dead, his first time in public since walking out on Vince McMahon.
March 9, 2014
On Tuesday, Big E Langston and Jack Swagger worked a match at the Smackdown taping. However, WWE opted to remove that from the broadcast on Friday night. Some are saying that the match came off horribly, while others are saying that management might simply be saving that for Monday Night Raw since it has a bigger audience.
March 9, 2014
Since he has not been utilized on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown in about a month now, there are speculations that there might be some backstage heat on R Truth. That is not the case. Management simply does not have a story line for him to work with. Plus, his partner Xavier Woods has been utilized on WWE NXT more frequently these past few weeks.
March 9, 2014
Since management was disappointed at the crowd reaction that was received during the match between Darren Young and Titus ONeil at Elimination Chamber 2014, the former Prime Time Players are being scaled back a bit, and their respective pushes are being placed on hold. Their feud has not being featured on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown since the pay per view.
March 9, 2014
Due to her questionable actions in the past, there were some speculations on whether or not Tammy Sytch actually had cancer. The former WWE diva recently lashed out at fans on Twitter who questioned the validity of her health condition.
January 4, 2014
"I don't even watch the show anymore, to be honest. If they call me to do an appearance, usually I will watch a month or so ahead of time. Think about it. If you are a dentist for 23 years, don't you get sick of looking at teeth? Same as me. Where I've been in this business for 23 years and am tired of watching it."
December 18, 2013
Tammy Sytch revealed that she and Reby Sky have sat down recently and made amends on their differences.
November 13, 2013
Tammy Sytch posted a picture of herself with Mick Foley on Twitter.
November 10, 2013
Tammy Sytch, formerly known as WWE diva Sunny, is now charging fans $2 a minute to chat with her on Skype.

A compact SUV with style.
Reviewed by Automotive on 12/20/1996
The rounded, petite 1996 Toyota RAV4 looks out of place when driving off road. However, despite the small size and four-cylinder base engine, it offers good off-road performance that can put some of the larger, more impressive looking SUVs turned suburban drivers to shame. As petite as it might be, it can get through terrain that would stop larger vehicles. It can offer a fairly comfortable ride, although optional equipment is required. It lacks standard comfort features found in most passenger vehicles, although many appear on the optional equipment list. The final price is a little higher due to the optional equipment but is usually money well spent.
The 1996 Toyota RAV4 is a new model introduced this year.
The 1996 Toyota RAV4 is a petite SUV, measuring 145.9 inches long. The styling is much more rounded and curved than commonly found on SUVs. Other than that, the exterior displays a functional, durable appearance. Exterior options are pretty minimal. A roof rack and rear step bumper are available as optional equipment. It comes with 16-inch wheels. Alloy wheels are optional.
The 1996 Toyota RAV4 lacks any major standard features. However, optional equipment include power windows, power locks, power mirrors, anti-theft alarm system, keyless entry, dual moonroof, air conditioning, cruise control, AM/FM radio, cassette player, CD player, and a CD changer. It is not that unusual for this style of SUV to put most, if not all, the features in the optional equipment list. The front seats are relatively comfortable; however, the rear seat is a bit cramped for taller, adult passengers. The rear split fold seat allows for a little extra room.
Off-road performance is the main focus of the 1996 Toyota RAV4. The 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine is powerful enough to get through rough terrain. An all-wheel drive five-speed manual transmission comes standard, and an optional four-wheel drive is available, which further improves its off-road ability. On roadways, it is competent and turning is adequate but not particularly exceptional. The only real highlight of roadway performance is the fuel economy, which is very good, especially for a predominately off-road oriented vehicle.
The 1996 Toyota RAV4 lacks many safety features. It has dual-front airbags and electronic brake force distribution as standard equipment. An anti-theft alarm system is optional. The lack of attention to safety has affected its crash test results. The International Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) rated it as ""marginal,"" its second lowest rating, on the frontal offset test.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Senator John Kerry has cleared a major hurdle to become the next Secretary of State. This morning, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee unanimously approved his nomination. The full Senate will vote later today.
Kerry would take over the position from Hillary Clinton, who is stepping down.
Once the confirmation is official, the race for his Senate seat kicks in. Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick will appoint someone to fill Kerry's Senate seat until a special election is held in June.

In 1978, the Soviet military introduced their second generation modern APC, the BTR-70. In the following decade, it would become one of the most extensively modified military machines in the world.

Originally designed for combat on the coastal plains of northern Europe, like most Soviet era military equipment, it was not equipped to deal with the harsh nature of combat in the high mountains of southwestern Asia. Beginning with early field modifications to add roof firing ports, the BTR-70 evolved step by step into a military vehicle well suited to handling combat on the low ground, outfitted with rocket launchers, machine guns and grenade launchers able to fire high into the mountain cliffs.
Though two additional generations of the BTR family have since been introduced to the Russian military, the BTR-70 soldiers on, the subject of numerous potent modernization programs in Russia, Ukraine, Belorus, and Slovakia, all enabling the BTR-70 to keep pace with the advancements made in the design of later generation BTRs, making the BTR-70 a valuable commodity on the international arms market.
Along with detailing the original BTR-70 family of vehicles plus the modifications made during the Soviet-Afghan War, this booklet also details the numerous modernized versions of the vehicle, including the Russian BTR-70M4 and BTR-70D, Belorussian/Slovakian BTR-70 Kobra-K, and the Ukrainian BTR-70 KMDB Upgrade and BTR-70 GROM.
