Seth Morrison hopped a quick plane to Jackson Hole to meet up with Sage Cattabriga-Alosa. Jackson, just coming out of a storm cycle, granted the boys deep pow pillows, bluebird days and big lines. Sage's double cliff 360's and Seth's lincoln loops were highlights of a great trip.

ACBR honored by National Association of Realtors
ACBR 2013 Forecast
- Staff Atlanta Business Chronicle
The Atlanta Commercial Board of Realtors has received the new Accredited Commercial Excellence (ACE) Award from the National Association of Realtors' Commercial Real Estate section.
The ACBR was recognized for extraordinary leadership in delivering commercial programs that are engaging Realtors and strengthening the community, according to Jean Maday, professional development and membership outreach, commercial real estate, for NAR. The local board was among the inaugural group of six ACE recipients, which were announced at its annual convention Nov. 9-12, in Orlando, Fla.
"We looked at the best of the best, when it comes to the accredited associations, and yours rose to the top," Maday wrote in an email to Georgia Association of Realtors CEO Debra S. Junkin about the selection.
Maday worked with ACBR Executive Vice President Kristin Lamb on the Commercial Leadership Forum at NAR in 2012 and observed "through Facebook" the man educational and networking activities the ACBR held this past year, she said in the email. "It is obvious how committed the staff team is to providing services and programs for the commercial side of the industry and membership.
"ATLCBR is seen by peers as a leader and a role model for best practices when it comes to serving the commercial member," she wrote.
According to The Source blog of the NAR's Commercial Division, each of the 200 commercial Realtor associations, boards and organizations across the country meets benchmarks and maintains levels of professional excellence through accreditation milestones. The ACE award winners were those commercial realtor organizations that exceeded those standards.
The other ACE winners were: Charleston Trident Association of Realtors in Charleston, S.C.; Southland Regional Association of Realtors in Van Nuys and Canyon Country, Calif.; Arcadia Association of Realtors in Arcadia, Calif.; Commercial Association of Realtors Wisconsin in Milwaukee, Wis., and Florida Association of Realtors in Orlando, Fla.

Newsweek Calls Obama 'The First Gay President'
There's no boob on the cover of the latest Newsweek (though Republican's might disagree), so it's not as attention-grabbing as Time's recent work, but still, calling President Barack Obama "The First Gay President" will likely cause some drama.
If you're done gazing at the cover we suggest you check out the inside, where Andrew Sullivan has a powerful piece about Obama's announcement:
For gay Americans and their families, the emotional darkness of Tuesday night became a canvas on which Obama could paint a widening dawn. But I didn't expect it. Like many others, I braced myself for disappointment. And yet when I watched the interview, the tears came flooding down. The moment reminded me of my own wedding day. I had figured it out in my head, but not my heart. And I was utterly unprepared for how psychologically transformative the moment would be. To have the president of the United States affirm my humanity—and the humanity of all gay Americans—was, unexpectedly, a watershed.
If you're not done staring at the cover, don't worry about it. We're sure Tina Brown is okay with either decision.

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT Season 2 To Kick Off 2/1 on Hallmark
Everyone's favorite canines are back for another season of the wildly popular Reality Show that scours the country in search of the most fascinating, jaw-droppingly talented pets. "Who Let The Dogs Out" Season II, presented by Petco and Natural Balance Pet Foods, will air weekly on Fridays from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM (12:00 PM to 1:00 PM Central/Mountain) on Hallmark Channel beginning February 1 st. Check local listings for full show details.
Season II of "Who Let The Dogs Out" will continue to follow Tillman "The World's Fastest Skateboarding Dog," and his friend Norman "The Scooter Dog," along with their puppy posse as they roll across the country with their human cohorts. Each episode follows these world-famous canines as they travel the highways and back roads of America in search of new recruits, unusual places to visit and fun experiences. The show will continue to delight animal lovers with laughs and provide interesting and helpful tips for pet owners to care for the physical, mental, social and emotional aspects of their best friends' health. Viewers who thought they saw it all last season are in for a surprise when they notice that the level of canine talent has been turned up a notch, featuring more crazy antics, history-making moments, and even some four-legged bike-riding.
This season of "Who Let The Dogs Out" will also take audiences behind-the-scenes and into the minds of the creators of the first-ever national monument for an animal: The Military Working Dog Teams National Monument. The monument, which will honor our country's canine veterans, was replicated by Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance Pet Foods during the 2013 Tournament of Roses Parade and will be the first national monument to Go On tour later this year. The monument will be dedicated this October and will be installed at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, TX.
With over 50 million hits on the internet and counting, Tillman was voted by TIME Magazine as one of the top 50 YouTube videos of all time. He and his pAl Norman have a tremendous fanbase of Facebook and Twitter followers whom they engage with via live viewing parties.
For more information, visit www.wholetthedogsout.tv. Audiences can join the conversation on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/TillmanSkates) and Twitter (@TillmanSkates using hashtag #TillmanTV).

If anyone has previously experienced the falling-through-the-floor bug, could they clear their caches, refresh, try again, and PM with the results? It'd be hugely appreciated and would get me closer to fixing that bug, if it isn't already with this new version. To make sure you're using the current version, go to options, then data, and look for the version number in the bottom left. It should be 1.55

In production since December 2005, this hefty s.o.b. has taken a small handful of Newgrounders a lot of work to put together. So you guys had better enjoy it!
Take a moment to configure the options to suit your control style and computer processor.
Finally! A fighting game I can play (the others, like Mortal Kombat are too hard, too many combos to remember...) this game reminded me of a flash version of Smash Bros. which is of course awesome! Since that is my favorite fighting game! Addictive fun, and easy for anyone to play, the way it should be. I don't know what my favorite character is in this game, but I'm leaning towards Piconjo, (he looks awesome!).
The only other thing that would make this even better, would be a online verses mode, but that's just me wishing.
Piconjo loves me!
I came back to this game after beating it when it first came out to find the new character and the more! After getting all 100%s I was even happier to find the easter egg for 100% complete. This is still one of the best games on Newgrounds.
And remember boys and girl Piconjer isn't as mean as he is portrayed. He luffs j00.
newgrounds at a new level
this is a perfect brawling game. i could not find any flaws in it besides 2 much fun. wOOt :3

Top 25 Golf Shops in America. Golf Digest Best 100 Clubfitters in America. Top 100 Ranges in America. PGA & LPGA Instruction. PGA Certifiied Clubfitting. Lighted Driving Range with 50 Grass Tees. Short Game Area. Areas Most Challenging Miniature Golf Course. Rick's Homemade Water Ice and Creamery.
Mulligan's Family Golf Center beckons to birdie-hunters with a scaled-down golf course, an 18-hole mini-golf circuit, and a full-length driving range. With its longest hole measuring in at 108 yards, the center's 9-hole Chip-n-Putt course fosters short-game refinement, as players send balls somersaulting onto small greens from artificial tees or out of one of the layout's three sand traps. Mulligan's graciously rents out golf balls (a $0.50 deposit each, refunded when balls are returned) for use on the course, saving players the hassle of buying their own sleeve or chiseling a bocce ball down to the right size.
For more pressure-free swing practice, Mulligan's 30-stall driving range lets clubbers dial in their wedges, irons, woods, and mannequin legs with five signs demarcating yardages all the way back to the 250-yard terminus. The center also encompasses an 18-hole mini-golf course, where putt-putt posses crouch to demystify tricky breaking putts while the burbling sounds of waterfalls, fountains, and streams set a tranquil tone.
Designed by renowned architect Geoffrey Cornish, Center Valley Club's verdant pastures embrace two distinct nine-hole terrains. The British-style front nine holes incorporate hidden mounds, lakes, and undulating greens ideal for concealing surplus Easter eggs. Club clutchers then march toward the North American–centric back nine, populated by woodland, lakes, and sand traps masquerading as restful turfside beaches. Golfers can also practice on Center Valley's Club's driving range before embarking on their orb-pummeling odysseys, choosing from five levels of yardage based on skill level and distance covered by "fore" yodels.
Helmed by 23-year PGA vet Scot W.R. Nei, TourBound Golf Academy hones the skills of golfers of all levels with a blend of professional training and high-tech analysis. In addition to learning from extensively experienced human trainers, students study under the cold, metal gaze of a training robot, which mercifully sets its kill-phasers to the "teach" setting as it offers up exact movement measurements and mechanically guided golf-swing practice. An indoor and outdoor facility hosts lessons in all weather, and TrackMan ball-flight trackers and digital-video scrutiny pinpoint improper postures and map out spheroid trajectories with computerized precision.
A multistory silo hovers above a long row of red barns just off the edge of Indian Run Golf Course, where golfers hunt pars across 5,456 yards of fairways that snake through the farming valley of western Snyder County. The course's front nine is shorter and more open than the back nine, allowing novice golfers or players weary from bench-pressing their driver to find their swings early in the round. Once a rhythm has been found, clubbers can test their mettle on the longer second act, which brings dense tree lines and several streams into play. Indian Run rents out gas-powered carts, so players can traverse the course's gentle hills while resting their legs or the giant caddy who carries them around in a duffle bag.
There's a symphony of chirps in the woodlands of northeastern Pennsylvania; storied naturalist John James Audubon visited the Pocono Mountains in 1829 to document the lush upper Lehigh River area, which is populated by bluebirds and woodpeckers. Today, trilling chirps also come from the slot machines that stand sentry at Mount Airy Casino Resort. Roughly two hours from the bustling streets of New York City and Philadelphia, the Poconos area is known for its quiet forests, cabins, and outdoor adventure. The resort posits itself in this verdant landscape with an approximately 65,000-square-foot gaming floor, where the sound of shuffling cards emits from 72 blackjack, poker, and other table games.This palatial hotel complex is also home to five different restaurants that satisfy a wide variety of appetites and budgets. Romance is in the air at Le Sorelle Cucina, a cozy Italian bistro that serves up classic dishes such as sicilian baked oysters and filet alla gorgonzola. Betty's Diner gives diners a taste of old-fashioned America, as its dining room comes decked out in 1950s memorabilia and all of its delicious malts are eligible for political office. Post-meal, crash land into the comfort of the deluxe king or double-queen rooms, which feature spacious bathrooms and pillow-top beds clad in goose-down comforters.Pocono—which translates to "stream between two mountains"—is speckled with hidden lakes and waterfalls throughout its terrain. Frazzled city-goers, everyday adventurers, and unemployed town criers flee from the urban centers to experience the peaceful wilderness, whether they're skiing in winter or, in more temperate months, mountain biking, hiking, and kayaking at Delaware State Forest. Quiet, historical towns and hamlets pepper the deeply forested area.

Zele Community Table
August 22, 2006
Women Bloggers In Aspen
Featuring Beth Brandon, Sara Guttman, Jennifer Slaughter, Dava Parr, Sheridan Smith, and Lisa Zimet. With Michael Conniff and Keith Hemstreet.
Q: Do any of you keep a journal?
Beth Brandon: I haven't journaled in a while. It used to be just about my day. "Monday, I went to see this person, and this person, and I was so hung over." Now I just every once in a while write about how I feel.
Dava Parr: I've done a lot of journaling over the years. Writing about emotions, feelings, working through problems. I also wrote free-form in London about what I experienced when I rode my bike. The whole physical feeling when you pick up speed
Michael Conniff: What that drug-induced?
DP: No, but it was 5 o'clock in the morning. The whole city was asleep and it was my time. That was my [dose of] nature, that ride when I moved from Aspen to London. Two hours later it was hopping. I was cycling at 5 AM, with two flat tires.
MC: What did you notice?
DP: I saw a guy down and out on the curb, I thought the church must be a disco with five people still at work outside. And I was always late! "My quads are on fire! Why do I always wait for the last minute!" I love that adrenaline.
JS: I started because of that book "The Artist's Way." I made it through the first six chapters. It was hard. I bought a French press [coffee-maker] specifically for that and that didn't work. There were "just when I'm angry" pages. I wrote about what I learned about life.
SS: I am a journaler to this day.
Q: What was the last thing you wrote?
SS: In my last journal, Thomas [Hayles] got me going on writing down all my exercise. How many minutes I worked out. My average heart rate up Hunter Creek. I tend to write when I can't process anything.
BB: It's this other form for. I have this great idea. Disposable going out shirts. Then I thought about the shirt swap. I write it down. Then there's the feelings journal. What day is it? All sorts of fun things. I use it to work through problems. I write if I'm anxious—or how do I get to the other end of it.
JS: I think it provides clarity, then you can move away from it.
BB: It's like writing an angry letter you're never going to send.
Q: Do women journal more than men?
DP: I'm guessing it's more of a girl thing.
LZ: In a long-term. How many of you are in relationships. I wonder if that affects it. I don't journal. I talk to my husband.
JS: I started journaling while I was in this relationship. A friend was doing writing groups, and I wanted to make a collection. Now it's a tool I go to.
LZ: I did once journal when I was going through a divorce. I'd get up at 4 in the morning and knock something out on my computer. There were thoughts I couldn't connect to anyone else. It was a tremendous thing.
SS: I've barely journaled since I was single. I used to write about things that were bugging me in exercise. [Laughs] Now I write an exercise log for Tom.
JS: My fiancée has been journaling for years. He's done it for years. He does poetry.
LZ: We're starting poetry slam at Zele's.
Q: Keith, do you keep a journal?
KH: I did but I put it aside. It started when I was traveling, keeping a record of our travels. I called it "A Life Sometimes Enchanted" and it was 70,000 words over the course of four months.
DP: Guys write lists. He writes lists. Make love to Dava. Take out the trash. It's not always about feelings. I wrote about my recovery. It was an inventory of resentments, fears, angers, things you've done to people as well. Journaling was about rejection or angst. "That was just the fourth step and there were seven more, so get on with it." How to get unstuck. It starts as a journal, a dream, short story. It's an exercise to get started again
BB: When I first moved here, I was sexually assaulted. I started seeing a therapist, a grief counselor. I did this this this this but I wrote about this experience. A year or two later, I looked back on it. It was GROWTH. I've grown so far. The journal has also changed.
Q: Do you go back and read what you've wrote?
JS: You read it and you say: "Who wrote that?" I look at it for laughs. I remember stupid, awful things. I'd write a lot when I was traveling. Being on planes, I don't sleep on planes. There was this baby who was crying, breastfeeding next to me. I was trapped with this crying, nursing baby and I'm writing, writing, writing.
DP: I did one just like this, this man 350 pounds and the plane would not take off, I was writing the whole time. He stunk and there was no air conditioning. He was a big man.
SS: I look back and I wrote: "I love Ed Dent. I love Dylan Balderson." They both know that I loved them. Sometimes I'll look on my adult ones. They're still all about boys.
JS: My family found my letters from 6th grade. "I love Jesse Bloom. Doesn't 'Jennifer Bloom' sound good?"
MC: There's been a boom in that kind of thing, unrequited love, with people finding each other on the Web.
LZ: The Lost Love Project is about people who connected later in life. They're finding those relationships fell apart for the same reason twenty years later.
DP: It wouldn't happen to me that way.
SS: I never like the people the same. I see Dylan all the time. I love him still but not that way. I wouldn't want to be married to him. Now his wife's one of my best friends. I told her she should go out with Dylan.
DP: I had a hundred reasons why I want to divorce my husband. "He was short. He can't make froth for cappuccino right. His feet stink and he never does his dishes." He was the sweetest guy but there were good reasons. "I just don't like you any more," he said. I said: "I don't like you any more." He said: "You're like my sisters." I said: "You're like my brother." We were fighting like brother and sister. There was nothing left but camaraderie and lots of fighting.
Q: Let's shift gears from journaling to blogging. Beth, when do you blog?
BB: I have a self-imposed deadline on Thursday night. I treat it like it's an article, with a beginning, a middle, and an end. "The introduction needs to be stronger" But it's still my dumb little stories.
Q: Are you able to put everything in, the way you would in a journal?
BB: I don't know if I've left much out. There was the naked in the shower story. Nothing was left out there. I told my mother to brace for PG 13, sex drugs and rock and roll, so be ready. As you said, it's an adult audience. It's not like you shouldn't talk about smoking pot. Like I wrote in another blog: "If I had a trust fund, I'd sit at Zele all day."
MC: You'd probably like that, Lisa, if they stayed at Zele all day.
LZ: I do want them to feel at home.
BB: The thing with comedy, being honest is funny, if it's something that makes me feel completely raw. I feel like that part of the humor is saying it out loud.
Q: Sara, do you keep a journal?
Sara Guttman: I did at one time and I wish I was doing it again. When I do I write about my life. Personal stuff.
Q: How is blogging different from journaling?
SG: Blogging is not private. It's on the World Wide Web.
Q: What do you do different when you blog?
SG: I spell check. In my journal I write "SP" next to a word if I'm not sure just in case someone reads it when I'm dead. I am very conscious of the public side.
Q: What's your experience with blogs?
DP: My friend Kimberly sent me a blog about this woman who writes about her kid's poop. This lady quit her job, or got fired because she was blogging. I find it interesting. She's not doing anything special, she's just saying it out loud. She's got her hair down.
KH: The woman's name is "Dooce."
JS: I don't need to hear the day-to-day details. I prefer the ponderings, the thoughts. I like Sara's and Beth's blogs. I like their humor.
SS: I didn't even know what blogging was, that's why I came tonight. I heard the word before and I knew it was on the Internet, that's about it.
JS: It's becoming a tool that publicists use. Indie Wire has blogs about the movie industry. Blogs are becoming a trusted source of information.
DP: It's also a political platform.
BB: I didn't think it's a different venue. It's a similar thing, it's going to a Web site instead of picking up a paper.
Q: What do you read in general?
JS: Political non-fiction. I'm addicted to Al Franken. I'm also reading "The End of Faith."
BB: I just read headlines. I look for pictures. Oh, look. Zele's having a special today on fajitas!
Lisa: Is blogging a substitute for talking to each other?
BB: An email is different from a text. Quick messages are fun. But don't invite me to something with a text message. Call me.
SG: I'll use text messaging to send a quick answer instead of making a call.
LZ: Do you think blogs will mean that people spend less and less time relating to each other in person.
JS: I do agree that there is a shift away from people relating to others face to face. We're losing the connection with fellow humans.
Q: Have you received any comments on your blogs?
BB: Yeah, I've gotten comments.
SG: Yeah. I have as well.
MC: I knew when I started Aspen Post everyone would have a chance to give their opinion, but I didn't realize that I would get most of the criticism in the comments. A guy was using my name so there were two "Michael Conniff's" on Aspen Post. His email was MichaelCconniff666. It was really funny because he got me pretty good. He had me down. I'm assuming it's a he. I changed his username to MichaelConniff666, and he kept changing it back. I told him it was too confusing and if he didn't leave it I would kick him off. He kept changing it back to my name so I had to take him down.
LZ: Do you think the Internet and technology can be harmful?
SG: I see what you all are saying, but with email I can check in with my mom, my sister, my grandmother all in one night.
LZ: I'm talking more about people who use chat rooms, and spend all of their time online.
JS: I'm not even sure how to get into a chat room and I don't know anybody who does.
Q: Do you find it's hard to put yourself out there in a personal way?
SG: No, but I need to be inspired. It feels a little like work at this point. This is one of many things that I am doing. There are plenty of little things that happen around town that I want to share, but if I don't have the time it doesn't get done.
DP: When I write it's a business. I'm writing about food. There's a part of me that wants to wander off on a page. I'm only interested in writing a blog where I can freak out.
BB: For me, it's been a place where I do all these little things, trying to figure out what's inside my head and what I can do with it.
SG: What is nice is that you are your own editor. A friend who writes for a magazine gets edited and is horrified when it is published. She'll say: "I didn't write this!"
Q: Do you think your blogs could be published in newspapers or magazines?
BB: Barry Smith is my writing coach. At writing class, we had ten minutes. He set the timer and said: "Start writing," which really helped. I always run it by him and I've been pretty proud of what I've submitted for my blog.
Q: What would you blog about if you had a blog?
SS: I'd write about more physical stuff. Sitting here I realize there are all these people in Aspen I don't know. These intellectual-type people, but most of my conversations are about the physical, the outdoor stuff.
SG: This might be a good bookend to this conversation. There is an article in USA Today today about the difference in men's and women's brains. Women are more in tune with what's going on around them. Women might be more in touch with their emotions. They ask each other: "Are you okay. Are you okay?" Men are more like: "I'm good."
MC: if you write about really small things, it can be good on many levels. Let me think of an example—like this table that's uneven. I could go on for hours about tables everywhere that aren't balanced and how you can't work on them, and there seems to be no solution. The only way you can fix it is to stick a crappy rolled-up napkin or newspaper underneath and that still doesn't work.
JS: I have a good example of that. Riding my bike home from work this little bee was flying right next to me. Right here. It followed me forever. I could tell you how many stripes he had. He was my buddy! And I'm really afraid of bees because of allergies. You could talk about how it relates to the pace of life, the rekindling of humans and nature. It was a magical moment.

A biosimilar version of etanercept , TuNEX® will be an affordable, high-quality alternative
20 October, 2009 TAIPEI, Taiwan – Protein drug development company Mycenax Biotech Inc. (GreTai, Taiwan: 4726) announced today that its rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis drug TuNEX®, a biosimilar version of etanercept, has successfully completed a Phase I trial in South Korea and Phase I/II clinical trials in Taiwan is in the data analysis and report preparation stage, important clinical trial milestones towards the commercial release of the drug in both regional and global markets.
Mycenax also announced that TuNEX® would undergo a Phase III clinical trial soon, with plans to also undertake multinational, multicenter Phase Ⅲ studies in several countries such as Korea and India, using the clinical data obtained to apply to market the drug in other locations globally.
With the completion of the Phase I trial in Korea -- a 'biosimilar' as stipulated by Korean drug approval regulations, conducted on 24 healthy patients at National Seoul University -- TuNEX® becomes the first protein drug developed in Taiwan to pass such a milestone overseas.
The Taiwan clinical trial -- a 'new drug' as stipulated by Taiwan drug approval regulations -- was completed in September on 18 arthritis patients at the Taichung Veteran General Hospital, Kaohsiung Veteran General Hospital and Buddhist Tzu Chi General Hospital. The final report will be completed at the end of the year, reported Dr. Karen Wen, spokesperson and vice president at Mycenax.
Dr. Michael Hwang, Mycenax founder and president said, "With TuNEX® being an INN etanercept biosimilar to Enbrel®, the world's 1st largest biological pharmaceutical with over US$6 billion in sales, we expect that TuNEX® will become a successful, popular cost-effective alternative."
The development of Taiwan's first biosimilar is also welcome news for the country's fledgling biotech sector.
"With the drug ready to enter Phase III trials, it's indicative of the strength and potential of the biotechnology industry in Taiwan that a small company [50 employees] can produce and develop such an international class drug and compete on global markets," Hwang said.
About TuNEX®:
TuNEX® is a dimeric fusion protein consisting of the extracellular domain of the human 75 kilodalton (p75) tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) linked to the Fc portion of human IgG1. The extracellular portion of TNFR was also discovered as soluble TNF-binding protein in urine and serum and plays a physiological role by inhibiting TNF activities. The Fc component of TuNEX® contains the CH2 domain, the CH3 domain and hinge region and it corresponds to the formation of TNFR:Fc dimmer.
TuNEX® is produced by recombinant DNA technology in a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mammalian cell expression system. TNF is a naturally occurring cytokine that is involved in normal inflammatory and immune responses. It plays an important role in the inflammatory process of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the result of joint pathology. TuNEX® can bind specifically to tumor necrosis factor a (TNFa) and it blocks the interaction with cell surface TNF receptors, rendering TNF biologically inactivity.
TuNEX® is a similar biological medicinal product to Etanercept (Enbrel®, Amgen Inc.), a FDA-authorized biological medicine. The approval indications of Etanercept include 1) moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, 2) moderately to severely active polyarticular-course juvenile rheumatoid arthritis patients who have had an inadequate response to one or more disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs), 3) psoriatic arthritis, 4) active ankylosing spondylitis, and 5) chronic moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. The pharmaceutical form, strength and route of administration of TuNEX® will be the same as Etanercept.
The manufacturing of TuNEX® has been accredited a Type V Drug Master File (DMF) by the US FDA and cGMP by Department of Health in Taiwan. All process data and documentation is backed up with FDA master file registration and cGMP has complied with PIC/S regulation.
The market rights for TuNEX® in 31 countries including Korea and India have been licensed to BioTrion of Korea.
Enbrel® is a registered trademark of Amgen Inc. and/or Wyeth Pharmaceuticals.

ESPNcricinfo staff
October 2, 2012
Former Mumbai captain Amol Muzumdar will join the Andhra Pradesh squad for the upcoming domestic season after he was advised to look for opportunities elsewhere by Mumbai selection committee chariman Abey Kuruvilla. Muzumdar, who spent a season playing domestic cricket for Assam, returned to Mumbai last year but had to spend the season playing local leagues as part of his 'cooling-off period'.
"It was almost like a co-incidence. Just 10 days ago I spoke with the MCA's chairman of selectors, and he conveyed the team's plans to me," Muzumdar told the Sportsline. "And a few days later, I receive a call from MSK Prasad asking me whether I would be interested in joining Andhra. The answer was obviously a resounding yes. I want to play cricket for as long as I'm motivated. For now the next two years I'm with Andhra."
"The MCA had told me that my chances were not great for this season," he said. "I'm thankful to the MCA because they let me know the reality well in advance so that I still had other options to go to."
A veteran of 158 first-class games, Muzumdar has 10,202 runs with 25 centuries. He held the record for most runs in Ranji Trophy till last year before being overtaken by his former Mumbai team-mate Wasim Jaffer. He has also scored 3168 runs from 108 List A matches.

The condo was clean & well equipped with what you'd need to enjoy your stay. The convertible bed was very comfortable. The complex is awesome (4 pools, tennis courts, bathrooms close to the beach). The upstairs toilet did flush well, but other than than, EVERYTHING worked well. They have made a real effort to keep the renters happy. We definitely were:)Recommended for: Romantic getaway, families with young children, sightseeing.

Exactly as advertised, cute and comfortable. Beautifully furnished, clean and well appointed. You don't have to walk to the beach ... you're ON the (5 mile) beach. Great for long relaxing walks, watching the odd dolphin swim by, or just sitting and watching fishermen at their craft. The weather was a bit cool, but with a heated pool, who cares! We have rented for the winter many times in the past and this is one of the best condos we have stayed in and most definitely the best value. We will definitely return to this condo whenever we are able.Recommended for: Girls getaway, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing.

My husband and I stayed in this condo back in February. It was exactly as described on VRBO. Though the weather was a little cold, we had the best time walking on the beach, eating seafood and talking with the snowbirds from up north. Jenny is the best! I would highly recommend this condo for any small family. Roll Tide!Recommended for: Romantic getaway.

The condo was perfect for 3 adults. We enjoyed the pools and the beach especially. It wasn't too crowded because there aren't any large condo complexes close by. I don't think I would bring my small children because there isn't a bath tub, and no door to block the stairs to the upstairs bedroom. Overall, a great value though to be directly on the beach (although not a very good beach view), and we would definitely stay here again!Recommended for: Girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

We love this condo. It is perfect for our family of 5, The fouton upstairs is great, with the queen bed. The owners are helpful in anyway. We also LOVE the pools. We have a 5 year old and the small pool being right there with one of the large ones makes it perfect to watch him and the older ones too. Thank you for letting us use your home.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with teenagers.

My wife and children (4) recently went to Gulf Shores for Spring Break. We were mislead about a location and my wife called yelling. I was able to get in touch with Jenny who went out of her way to get the condo ready quickly for them to move. With her being an hour away she was able to do this. When they arrived I got a text message that said that it was much better and they had not even gotten the car unloaded and looked around. I was back in the good graces wiith my wife who loved the place and all of the ammenities. Jenny not only saved the vacation but also my marriage (ha). The family will definately be staying there again!Recommended for: Girls getaway, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2001
About the owner: Our family LOVES the beach. Our children love surfing, skimboarding, and fishing. We purchased Sugar Beach as both an investment and as our personal beach house. We have precious memories of our sons playing in the kiddie pool there and of them asking for their 'sugar money' to spend at the Sugar Shack, the on-site snack shack by the pool. We hope that you and your family will make great memories of building sand castles, burying each other in the sand, and of feeding the seagulls.
Why the Owner Chose Sugar Beach:
Sugar Beach is about an hour away from us-close enough to get to, but far enough away to be a treat. We love that our unit is pleasant, comfortable, and affordable. For such a small complex, we feel like we have many amenities. The location is perfect: we have fantastic views and access to the beach and all the extras like great restaurants, outlet shopping, the waterpark and fishing.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
We enjoy the pools very much-one of which is heated in the cooler months. Our children have played tennis, and they love getting a treat at the Sugar Shack. But our most favorite thing to do is just be on the beach, whether sitting in a lounge chair, jumping in the surf, taking a walk, collecting sea shells, fishing, surfing or skimboarding. At the end of the day, the elevator ride to the third floor means a shower and then collapsing onto the nearest surface.

Wings shortage may ruin Super Bowl for some fans

06:28 PM ET 01.23 | We're less than two weeks away from the biggest day in professional football but the drama surrounding the game has already started. But this drama has nothing to do with Ray Lewis' final game or the Harbaugh brothers squaring off in the ultimate sibling showdown. Rather, the drama surrounds the fact that when you go to your Super Bowl party, and you ask for the chicken wings, they might not be there. The National Chicken Council released a report that stated the demand for wings this year is at "an all-time high" and that they are lowering the estimated number of wings to be consumed this year by over 12 million. Due to the high cost of corn and feed prices, chicken companies produced 1 percent fewer birds than last year, meaning we have a chicken wing shortage on our hands this year. Huffington Post reported that the supermarket cost of a pound of chicken rose in cost by over $1.97 from last year's price. So that chicken you bought last year at $0.55/per pound is now going to cost you a whopping $2.52/per pound. Basically, if you thought Y2K and the Mayan 2012 thing was a big deal, that was child's play compared to the great wing scare of 2013.

Cameos include Gene Simmons, Hulk Hogan (and his family!), Tera Patrick, Peter Moore, half the Dtoid team, and a giant mechanical penis monster that almost raped my alter ego. We hope you enjoy our home movie and come hang with us at the other events we'll be attending this year. Also, cocks. Did you know?

► FSTL1 is expressed in DRG and secreted via small vesicles at afferent terminals ► FSTL1 binds to the α1 subunit of Na+,K+-ATPase and elevates its activity ► FSTL1 suppresses the synaptic transmission by activating Na+,K+-ATPase ► FSTL1 is required for maintaining the normal threshold of somatic sensation
Excitatory synaptic transmission is modulated by inhibitory neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. We found that the synaptic transmission of somatic sensory afferents can be rapidly regulated by a presynaptically secreted protein, follistatin-like 1 (FSTL1), which serves as a direct activator of Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA). The FSTL1 protein is highly expressed in small-diameter neurons of the dorsal root ganglion (DRG). It is transported to axon terminals via small translucent vesicles and secreted in both spontaneous and depolarization-induced manners. Biochemical assays showed that FSTL1 binds to the α1 subunit of NKA and elevates NKA activity. Extracellular FSTL1 induced membrane hyperpolarization in cultured cells and inhibited afferent synaptic transmission in spinal cord slices by activating NKA. Genetic deletion of FSTL1 in small DRG neurons of mice resulted in enhanced afferent synaptic transmission and sensory hypersensitivity, which could be reduced by intrathecally applied FSTL1 protein. Thus, FSTL1-dependent activation of NKA regulates the threshold of somatic sensation.

Share Your Favorite Dixie Carter Moment
Apr 12, 2010 @ 4:17 pmWe were saddened to hear that Designing Women star Dixie Carter passed away on Saturday at age 70. Her memorable character, the tough-but-sweet Southern belle Julia Sugarbaker, still stands as inspiration for strong, opinionated women everywhere and our favorite clip proves it. In her famous "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" speech, Julia defended her sister Suzanne (played by the lovely Delta Burke) from a snooty pageant queen by unleashing a fury that's pretty hard to beat. Enjoy the classic scene and share your favorite Dixie Carter moments in the comments section below!
