1. National Geographic News: "Human Brains 'Evolve,' Become Less Monkey-Like With Age"
Does the developing human brain portray the evolution of humans from ape-like creatures?
A study led by Washington University in St. Louis neurobiologist Jason Hill has documented the "strikingly nonuniform" growth of the human brain during childhood development. By comparing MRI scans of infant brains with those of young adults and macaques, researchers concluded that "the expansion patterns in infant brains are 'remarkably similar' to how human brains have changed since humans and macaques diverged from a common ancestor about 25 million years ago," National Geographic News reports.
"The parts of the [brain] that have grown the most to make us uniquely humans are the same regions that tend to grow the most [after birth]," Hill explained. He is referring to the regions of the brain responsible for language, reasoning, and other forms of sophisticated thought, which together experience twice the degree of growth relative to other important brain regions.
The apparent implication of the study is that the mirroring of post-birth brain development in humans with differences between human and monkey brains provides evidence for evolution. However, the paper makes no such claim; instead of using the scans to prove evolution, the authors use evolution to interpret the scans, arguing that "[i]mportant inferences can . . . be made through comparative studies with extant nonhuman primates." Among those inferences are that "it is evolutionarily advantageous to put those resources more into the maturation of regions that are better suited to early survival, such as being able to see and recognize your mother," Hill said.
But the team also points out that the delayed growth of these brain regions till after birth may help early life experiences shape their development—an idea that is fully compatible with special creation. So, once again, we see that the starting point—raw data (the MRI scans)—isn't where the controversy lies (unless the data are actually flawed); the disagreements arise in the interpretation of the data in light of either the creation or the evolutionary worldview.

2. BBC News: "Fossil Links Humans and Monkeys"
Is a fossil found in Saudi Arabia the latest "missing link" between man and monkeys? Or is it only the latest misunderstood ape-like creature?
Saadanius hijazensis isn't your usual missing link: even the evolutionists who gave that name to a few bits of skull agree that Saadanius was not human. That's no surprise, as the fossil has been dated to around 29 million years old—far older than evolutionists' date for the evolution of the earliest humans.
But the fossil may nonetheless be labeled a "missing link," because researchers claim it may be the common ancestor of Old World monkeys and apes—and, therefore, ultimately of humans (in the evolutionary worldview). For that reason, research leader William Sanders, a paleontologist from the University of Michigan, hailed the fossil as "an extraordinary find," claiming further that "Saadanius is close to a group that eventually led to us."
The researchers are still hesitant, though, to conclude that Saadanius is the definitive link between modern primate groups. "There could have been a suite of creatures at the time that were very similar and one of them became our ancestor," Sanders explained.
Because Saadanius is not considered a missing link between apes and humans, the creationist response is straightforward: whether ape or monkey (which is impossible to determine for certain, given the sparse remains found), Saadanius descended from a created kind that was not created in the image of God. Rather than representing evolution from one "lower" species into a "higher" species, it merely represents a perhaps extinct (or unidentified) primate.

3. ScienceDaily: "'Dawning of a New Age' in Bacteria Research"
Couldn't inorganic matter have easily evolved to become simple, unicellular life-forms? If only (for evolutionists) it were so simple!
The research of Loyola University microbial geneticist Alan Wolfe's team into E. coli bacteria has led to a startling discovery: bacteria are significantly more complex than most scientists previously believed. According to the scientists, the finding marks the "dawning of a new age" in understanding bacteria.
The excitement concerns a molecular reaction known as protein acetylation, which was previously thought to be rare in bacteria. The team reports in Molecular Microbiology that protein acetylation is far more widespread in bacteria and has a significant impact on bacterial physiology. Wolfe explained, "There is a whole process going on that we have been blind to."
Protein acetylation is a process allowing for modification of proteins to alter their function. It was formerly believed to occur primarily in eukaryotic life-forms—those that have a nucleus, including plants and animals. "Bacteria have long been considered simple relatives of eukaryotes," the researchers wrote, adding, "Obviously, this misperception must be modified."
Although scientists already knew that bacteria, as with all life, are exceedingly complex, this discovery adds to our awareness of just how complex many of the supposed "simplest" life-forms actually are. Moreover, it adds to our skepticism of the vague, "just-so" yarns spun by evolutionists trying to explain how the first life formed.

4. LiveScience: "Survival Tactic Evolves in Flies Using Bacteria, Not Genes"
Natural selection, the force driving so-called "survival of the fittest," is at the heart of both evolutionist and creationist explanations for life's diversity. But in one strange case, natural selection is not at work on an animal.
The principle of natural selection is straightforward: some organisms are better adapted to their environment than others. They survive (or, more generally, they reproduce more frequently); others don't (reproduce less frequently). The premise of natural selection is that differences in organisms are what allow some creatures to survive better than others. For example, short-haired dogs living above the Arctic Circle will not survive (and reproduce) as well as long-haired dogs. The basis for these differences is usually genetic.
A new study by University of Rochester biologist John Jaenike sheds light on an unusual case of natural selection, however, occurring in the fly Drosophila neotestacea. As with many organisms (including humans), some D. neotestacea enjoy a symbiotic relationship with bacteria. In this case, one type of bacteria protects the flies from a parasitic worm that may otherwise leave female flies infertile.
Jaenike's research showed that natural selection in the flies has been furthered not by differences in the flies themselves, but in whether they carry the bacterium, known as Spiroplasma. If they do, the females are ten or more times more likely to remain fertile if attacked by parasites. And because the bacteria are passed down from a mother fly to its offspring, they are "inherited" in a manner similar to genes.
"Normally, you'd think that a species would evolve resistance using its own genes, but in this case they evolved resistance by spread of this symbiont," Jaenike said. But as in previous examples of natural selection that are labeled "evolution," we find no increase in genetic information—either in the flies or in the bacteria. Thus, natural selection working in D. neotestacea is not the same process as—and so is not evidence for—the "evolution" allegedly responsible for the diversity of life we see around us.

5. BBC News: "Stem Cell Therapy 'First' in Trial on Arthritic Knees"
Scientists have developed a new stem cell therapy that will soon be tested—using adult stem cells.
The therapy, to treat osteoarthritis, is based on an existing procedure in which a patient's cartilage cells are removed, propagated in the laboratory, and returned to the patient via injection. The new procedure will additionally remove stem cells from the patient's bone marrow, growing them in the lab along with cartilage cells and likewise returning them to the patient. Doctors hope using the two types of cells in conjunction may stimulate the cells' growth.
The treatment will be tested on several dozen individuals with damaged knees, with results compared to patients receiving only cartilage cells or only stem cells. If successful, the therapy may one day be used in lieu of joint replacement surgery, which can be considerably invasive.
Keele University orthopedic expert Sally Roberts noted, "Stem cells certainly have huge potential—we just need to learn how to harness it properly." We agree; the news is the latest in a long line of reports showing the successes and promise of adult stem cell treatments—which do not require the destruction of human life, as embryonic stem cells do. Of course, it remains to be seen whether this treatment will be effective.

6. And Don't Miss . . .
- Large, carnivorous dinosaurs like T. rex inspire fear even today in their portrayal as cunning hunters who chased down their prey. But could such supposedly fearsome dinosaurs have actually been scavengers? The possibility adds credence to the (already reasonable) notion that humans and dinosaurs lived together, as Genesis 1 teaches..
- The Sydney Morning Herald offers a powerful and thought-provoking—and (seemingly, although we do not know the author) Christian—look at the popular idea that any good religion is a tolerant religion.
- The humble egg shell: "one of nature's most elegant creations"—as ScienceNOW reports—or one of the Creator's?
- Most of us know that plants are more sophisticated than they may appear in a moment's examination. Now, a new study adds to our understanding of plant "thought."

Belated Discovery (BD) is an outgrowth of the Music and Art Therapy Programs that are conducted at the Heritage Day Health Centers in Ohio, through the Livingston Center.
Heritage Day Health Centers
Since 1984, Heritage Day Health Centers (HDHC) has provided a nursing home alternative to the frail elderly and disabled. HDHC is the largest provider of adult day services in Ohio.
Columbus, Ohio
How does it work?
Belated Discovery(BD) conducts two creative projects, approximately 4 months each, through the Livingston Center at HDHC. Recent projects included a production of The Wizard of Oz musical in collaboration with a local Boys and Girls Club and a Client Art Show that was featured at the Livingston Center, Ohio State House and The Columbus Public Library.
Why is it successful?
Belated Discovery is underpinned by Montessori programming adapted to older adults with dementia. Montessori programming emphasizes encouragement for the completion of even the simplest tasks, while Belated Discovery offers the unique opportunity to maximize such recognition with applause and praise. Belated Discovery has heightened the level of community awareness by lessens the stigma attached to the elderly and promotes adult day services as an alternative in elder care.

I bought Stew mac`s essential fretting kit. I have been making my own guitars for a while now and finding bargains at Pawn stores and setting them up for my own use and collection. What has happened is the word has got out that I can "fix things" and I have been fixing and setting up more and more of other folks guitars as the young "wanna bees" behind the local guitar shops just dont have the experience of my 45 years as a joiner/Patternmaker. So I been buying what I need to finish these "jobs" from Stew Mac as they have the quality tools for just about every job going when it comes to guitar repairs. It doesn't stop there either.The questions I have asked via emails are answered intelligently and precise, and when offered a free item with a specific purchase, like the Fret Work book i got with my fretwork essentials kit, they are pure quality. Not some cheap throw away item worth a few cents. I Buy Stew Mac, always. Its quality, it works, it fits the job, its well worth the purchase price and is followed up, if needed, by solid professional advice. Its something that seems to be missing into days world, quality service.
these tools give a idea if you are like me DIY, the books is perfect explain everything what you should do, you can´t go wrong, in the end you earn knowledge and save money as well,
Following the book that came with kit helped me take my SG Gibson string action down low and buzz free. You will need time and patience but if you follow instructions the results are worth the effort
I recently did a complete refret on a Les Paul and although I realize that fretwork is definately a skill that is improved with experience, I couldn't be happier with the results for a first attempt. THANKS STEW-MAC
The kit provided all the basic tools to undertake fret installation. I was initially sceptical about the utility of the fret rocker but this was a surprisingly useful item. The free book was also very useful and will be an excellent reference for future projects. I achieved a good result with these tools.
Excellent kit, however, the medium triangle fret dressing file would have been an asset.
The overall kit was ok but the fret cutters which I used just as Dan Erlewine demonstrated on the video,as far as I'm concerned a are junk. While changing all 20 frets on my Alvarez acoustic with bound fretboard I noticed the cutters would no longer cut the tang off the fret wire. Looking at them I could see why, the cutting edge was chipping off. I did manage to finish the project which I think for my first time came out pretty descent. I think it's pretty sad though to spend as much money as I did to create a hobbie workshop and the cutters didn't even make it through the first job. I guess I should be thankful I'm not doing this as a career, I'd go broke buying a set of cutters for every guitar I worked on.
Marty Braddy, We apologize for the defective tool. We have sent you a replacement Fret Cutter. Thanks for your order.
Writing in my opinion, the essential kit for keyboard lacks one important tool is the fret fitter. thanks
I've always had a fear of frets/fret work etc... I think this kit is the perfect way to get started, the included book is great and explained a lot of things I wasn't sure about. I have since re-fretted a practice neck, leveled & dressed a vintage Kay banjo neck, and have leveled a fingerboard & inlays and am getting ready to add frets to my Tricone resophonic guitar project!
I received it so quickly that it just feels like ordering from my neighbour. well packed and very good quality tools. Les Français n'hésitez pas une seconde foncez!

Most hybrids to lose CA HOV access, electric vehicles can stay
Those yellow Clean Air Vehicle stickers that gave tens of thousands of hybrids access to full-time use of California's carpool lanes are long gone, and the clock is ticking down on the time they're valid. But for a few near zero-emissions vehicles, the HOV lane remains wide open to the single-party driver for another four years.
A recent bill was signed in California extending the amount of time that vehicles meeting California's super ultra-low emission vehicle (SULEV) standard and the federal inherently low-emission vehicle (ILEV) standard can use the HOV lane with less than the minimum number … Read more

ArrayList.Add Method
Adds an object to the end of the ArrayList.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
- value
- Type: System.Object
The Object to be added to the end of the ArrayList. The value can be null.
IList.Add(Object)Exception | Condition |
NotSupportedException | The ArrayList is read-only. -or- The ArrayList has a fixed size. |
ArrayList accepts null as a valid value and allows duplicate elements.
If Count already equals Capacity, the capacity of the ArrayList is increased by automatically reallocating the internal array, and the existing elements are copied to the new array before the new element is added.
If Count is less than Capacity, this method is an O(1) operation. If the capacity needs to be increased to accommodate the new element, this method becomes an O(n) operation, where n is Count.
The following code example shows how to add elements to the ArrayList.
using System; using System.Collections; public class SamplesArrayList { public static void Main() { // Creates and initializes a new ArrayList. ArrayList myAL = new ArrayList(); myAL.Add( "The" ); myAL.Add( "quick" ); myAL.Add( "brown" ); myAL.Add( "fox" ); // Creates and initializes a new Queue. Queue myQueue = new Queue(); myQueue.Enqueue( "jumped" ); myQueue.Enqueue( "over" ); myQueue.Enqueue( "the" ); myQueue.Enqueue( "lazy" ); myQueue.Enqueue( "dog" ); // Displays the ArrayList and the Queue. Console.WriteLine( "The ArrayList initially contains the following:" ); PrintValues( myAL, '\t' ); Console.WriteLine( "The Queue initially contains the following:" ); PrintValues( myQueue, '\t' ); // Copies the Queue elements to the end of the ArrayList. myAL.AddRange( myQueue ); // Displays the ArrayList. Console.WriteLine( "The ArrayList now contains the following:" ); PrintValues( myAL, '\t' ); } public static void PrintValues( IEnumerable myList, char mySeparator ) { foreach ( Object obj in myList ) Console.Write( "{0}{1}", mySeparator, obj ); Console.WriteLine(); } } /* This code produces the following output.

After releasing one of the most critically acclaimed hip-hop albums of 2010 (Nineteen Ninety Now), Celph Titled and Buckwild return, at the end of 2011, with Nineteen Ninety More; a companion piece to the album from last year. Anyone who spent any time on hip-hop websites and message boards, around the time of the release of Nineteen Ninety Now, will remember the plethora of posts the album spawned. Whether praiseworthy or critical, Celph and Buck generated one of the most talked about underground albums in years. With Buckwild unearthing unreleased beats from the mid 90's, Celph Titled bringing his unique form of emceeing and concepts, Mista Sinista creating classic cuts, and a plethora of great guests, Nineteen Ninety Now stood out amongst the glut of microwave popcorn rap albums.
With Nineteen Ninety More, listeners are treated to eight cuts that didn't appear on the original album. Four of the songs: "While You Slept (feat. Laws)", "Good Hell Hunting (feat. Outerspace)", "Rapid Fire (feat. Cella Dwellas)", and "Get Stupid (feat. Lord Digga & Kwest)" were unreleased; three: "The Celph Titled Show", "Nothin' To Say (feat. Rise)" and "There Will Be Blood [Remix] (feat. DITC and Brand Nubian)", appeared on a vinyl only EP, and "Buck's Four Course Meal" served as a promotional track. In addition, the two disc package also includes all of the new instrumental tracks, and a second disc with all of the instrumentals off of Nineteen Ninety Now plus four bonus beats. It is definitely a package worthy of the asking price.
Any of the tracks on this companion piece could have easily been inserted into the original album, and it would have been as cohesive and strong as it already was, so one must wonder why some of the original songs got the go ahead while others did not. "Rapid Fire", with one of the first appearances of the Cella Dwellas on a release in years, could have easily replaced songs like "Tingin'" or "Wack Juice" and made Now an even stronger release. It is a rarity to hear Lord Digga and Kwest these days, and being notable 90's underground heroes, they would have been a perfect addition to last year's album. Luckily, we get them all here spitting over vintage Buckwild production.
The true highlight of this album is being able to listen to more beats Buckwild made around the era of Big L's Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous, Kool G Rap's 4, 5, 6, O.C.'s Word… Life, and many more classics. It's a shame that the standard for hip-hop beats and digging have deteriorated over the years, to the point that his leftover beats tend to be better than the best beats that most producers make nowadays.
Overall, Nineteen Ninety More is the perfect complement to Nineteen Ninety Now. You get a modern emcee working with an excellent producer's unearthed masterpieces. Although some may have questioned Celph's work in the past, he truly stepped his game up with the songs on this album. More is an album that will keep heads bobbing and smiles on listeners' faces that miss 90's hip-hop but aren't stuck in the past.
Nineteen Ninety Now is still in heavy rotation for me, it is hands down one of the best Hip Hop LPs in years if not over a decade! It is a perfect LP to me! Ninety More? Hell ya it was great to get those 4 unreleased tracks (I already had the other ones)! These plus Dr. Lecter, Well Done and Honkey Kong are LPs I will be listening to 20+ years from now like my Run DMC and BDP LPs today! CLASSICS!!! Can't wait for Celph's next LP in 2012!

Kate Middleton starts hat-craze stateside
Princess-to-be Kate Middleton is being touted worldwide as a "fashion icon." and it seems some of her style sensibilities are making their way to the United States. Most notably, her love for hats, which local retailers say has given the headwear market a welcome boost.
At local accessory boutiques, more and more clients are coming in asking for a british staple. "I'm interested in the fascinators - the little ones - those are cool. I think that would be fun," said Sara Baker, one shopper.
Here in the U.S., they used to be called "cocktail hats" and were rather rare -- until Kate Middleton made the fascinator modern, youthful and chic.
"It's a small hat that sits on top of your head. It's not quite a hat but it has features of a hat - this is on a headband," explains Anna Fuhrman of The Proper Topper, a Dupont boutique that specializes in the hats.
Fascinators come in an array of styles and colors with feathers, ribbons and flowers. But this season, trend-setters aren't stopping with these mini headpieces.
Danielle Benson has studied abroad in London and says hats were "definitely the accessory" there. "In fact, the bigger, the better," she said.
In Silver Spring, Sharon Bullock, owner of Metamorphosis boutique, said hats have a transformative power. She calls it 'hatitude.'
Beyond weddings, horse races and church services, hats are an easy way to add a little whimsy to your wardrobe which is why the Proper Topper's Fuhrman said American women are now investing in headpieces.
"I think a few years ago this would have been over the top but because Kate Middleton wears them a lot, Sarah Jessica Parker wears them, they've become so much in the lexicon of hats," she said. "And once you try them, it's hard to leave bare-headed."
Despite this trend, finding fancy fascinators and hats can be a challenge. Right now, it's mainly small, specialized boutiques that stock the headpieces.

Vlad Minnin has already made a name for himself in his native Russia.
A few years ago he travelled across the Alaskan wilderness on a snowmobile, a taxing journey to tackle alone. He's now preparing a similar journey across his native country.
He will start his 10,000 mile voyage in Vladivostok in Eastern Russia and end it in Moscow. Along the way he will stop at 12 villages with supplies for children, that they would not normally have access to – a task many international charities have undertaken, but Vlad plans to make this journey alone.
The project, which Vlad has named "10,000 Mileposts" has also attracted the support of major businesses in Russian cities. They have packed Vlad's suitcase with school supplies for him to distribute on his journey.
'I want to help these kids because they don't have the simple things that kids have in cities'
This is not just a chance to support the education for children in remote villages, it is also an opportunity to learn more about his native country.
The Deputy Head of The Russian Geographical Society, Artur Chilingarov has pledged his support to Vlad:
A great story that has elements of the intrepid character of The Wild Geese as well as their commitment to a cause. We wish Vlad luck on his journey.

Thanks for the replies everyone! Looks like Mayna is taking a pretty commanding lead in this poll. That's the one we've been leaning towards, seems to be the most intuitive pronunciation and the most widely used. I like the idea of using Maena (probably my second favorite spelling at the moment), but Mayna does still seem the most likely choice for us at the moment.

Mayna and Meina both seem like logical choices to me. I voted for Meina because it looks prettier to me.

What a lovely name! I think Mayna is the way to go. It seems to be the legitimate spelling, plus, I find it the most intuitive.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - After 35 days of the legislative session, there's been more talk in the West Virginia House of Delegates on guns and pepperoni rolls than voter identification laws.
With several bills before both legislative chambers, though, that could change at any minute, Secretary of State Natalie Tennant said.
"The way I look at it is, in the beginning, even before the session started, I read in the paper and I was asked questions when folks were saying that this was going to be their priority bill," Tennant said Wednesday. "When this was something to add burdens, to add more restrictions, more burdens to voters, that was going to be their priority."
Earlier this week, Tennant announced the creation of a "nonpartisan voting rights protection coalition." The coalition intends to combat any legislation aimed at keeping people from the polls, she said.
Members of the AFL-CIO, ACLU, League of Women Voters, AARP and others joined Tennant during the press conference. The entire event was spent discussing the potential harm of requiring photo identification be shown in order to vote.
In a written statement distributed at the event, Tennant said the local effort was the result of national Republican groups "looking for solutions where there are not problems."
The chairmen of both the Senate and House judiciary committees said Wednesday they don't foresee any voter ID measures coming before them anytime soon.
"No, there are some other issues we've got to get through this session before we tackle that, and there's not another election until a year from now," said House Judiciary Committee Chairman Tim Miley, D-Harrison.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Corey Palumbo said he thought he had heard the House was going to do something with the measure this session. There's been little talk about the topic on the Senate side, and he doesn't anticipate it coming up in the near future.
Voter identification was a part of the state GOP legislative agenda, and Minority Leader Tim Armstead, R-Kanawha, mentioned the topic leading up to the session.
But so far, there are three bills before the House and Senate that specifically propose involving photo ID in the voting process. None has received any attention at the committee level.
Delegate Eric Householder, R-Berkeley, is the sponsor of a bill that would require voter ID cards to also contain the holder's photograph.

Few ballerinas are as adventurous as New York City Ballet's Wendy Whelan. "I like to be the paint and the brush," she says, "but just not the person holding the brush." At the Guggenheim's Works & Process this weekend, Whelan discussed and performed excerpts of "Restless Creature," a suite of duets created collaboratively with contemporary dancer-choreographers Kyle Abraham, Joshua Beamish, Brian Brooks and Alejandro Cerrudo.
Mark your calendars: There's some great ballet coming into your life over the next couple of weeks—all of which you can catch from the comfort of your couch. Keep an eye out for these programs:
Wendy Whelan: "Restless Creature" The New York City Ballet superstar will preview her new project at the Guggenheim Museum. She'll perform excerpts from new duets created collaboratively with choreographers Joshuah Beamish and Brian Brooks, and show a solo by Shen Wei.
Before becoming a beloved prima ballerina with New York City Ballet, Wendy Whelan was just another girl growing up in Louisville, Kentucky. Tonight, local TV station KET will air "Wendy Whelan: Moments of Grace" on its Kentucky Muse program at 10 pm EST (and the station will rerun it next Wednesday at 8 pm). Those of us who live in other states can watch it stream online at ket.org/live. The documentary explores Whelan's childhood growing up in Kentucky, and gives an inside look at the impact of her roots on her incredible career.
Ballet superstars don't get much bigger than Wendy Whelan and Desmond Richardson. This winter, the two inimitable dancers teamed up for a one-night-only performance in New Orleans to commemorate Richardson's last season as a performer with Complexions. If you haven't seen Jim Lafferty's gorgeous shots of their rehearsals in our April/May issue, you're missing out. This is one outtake we didn't have room for in the magazine, and I had to share it.
Tomorrow night, Wendy Whelan will make her debut as a guest artist with the Stephen Petronio Company at New York's Joyce Theater, dancing the choreographer's Ethersketch 1. Pointe talked to Petronio about working with the celebrated New York City Ballet principal on the solo.
For Pointe's December/January issue, photographer Matthew Murphy went behind the scenes of Daniel Ulbricht's "Dance Against Cancer" benefit. The event, featuring performances by dancers from all over, raised $30,000 for the American Cancer Society. Murphy captured splendid shots of the dancers rehearsing, organizing, performing, texting, giggling, getting dressed, and more.
Senior editor Jenny Stahl recently called New York City Ballet principal Daniel Ulbricht "Superman," and I can't think of a better way to describe the phenomenally talented dancer and teacher, who seems to be everywhere at once these days. (We recently posted a poll asking who your favorite dancer-teacher was, and Ulbricht cleaned up.)
Wendy Whelan, NYCB principal, on teaching a recent master class at Manhattan Movement & Arts:I don't teach often, so I'm learning about myself as a teacher. You have to articulate both with your body and with your words. A certain word might make all the difference to someone in the class. As I teach, I think a lot about Willy Burmann—I've been taking his class for more than 20 years. I love the ideas he brings to his students. He does a lot with opposition—being down in the ground and up into the air.
A master class can be many things: It can be a source of inspiration, a networking opportunity, the key to a new technical revelation, or simply an awesome time with an amazing dance celebrity. Manhattan Movement and Arts Center is offering a master class with the singular New York City Ballet star Wendy Whelan next Monday from 7:30 to 9 pm. She will be teaching an Intermediate/Advanced level class. The fee is $20 (or $17 professional rate). Register here.

Driver allegedly
aided drug sales
A Rutland woman has denied a felony charge for allegedly chauffeuring a drug dealer around the city for $15.
Jody L. Poczobut, 23, pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court this week to a charge of aiding in the commission of a felony. She was released on court ordered conditions.
A detective with the Southern Vermont Drug Task Force wrote in an affidavit that Poczobut drove a man under investigation for cocaine trafficking in the city to several locations where drugs were sold in February. She was paid $15, police said.MORE IN This Just InHerald content editor Rich Alcott shares local weather information and easily digestible news...

Hi all! I have a big problem at work. Here is the situation. I have an html passing a variable as an array to my flash. In the flash i want to call a couple of symbols depending on the variable from html and display them as a slideshow. I need to add these symbols dynamically but i dont know where to start. I have created all my movie symbols and linked them for actionscript. I have created a simple line of code just to display one symbol using _root.attachMovie and the symbol does not show. here it the code:
_root.attachMovie(usb, usb,1);
usb.x = 276.15;
usb.y = 199.50;
Now the symbol should be visible right? What am i doing wrong?
I will paste my code so you have better understanding. Here is what i have in my flash:
txt1.text = logos;
It seems I have difficulties passing the FlashVars from html. I have created a dynamic text box which I gave the instance name txt1. In my html, I have the following code for the flash:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="300" height="60" id="FlashID" title="logoflash">
<param name="movie" value="logo.swf" />
<param name=FlashVars value="logos=usb%2mp3" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<param name="swfversion" value="22.214.171.124" />
<!-- Next object tag is for non-IE browsers. So hide it from IE using IECC. -->
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="logo.swf" width="300" height="60">
<param name=FlashVars value="logos=usb%2mp3" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<param name="swfversion" value="188.8.131.52" />
<param name="expressinstall" value="Scripts/expressInstall.swf" />
I have already wrote "fla" in the text box. When I preview the flash only all that shows is "f". When I preview the html within Dreamweaver, there is nothing on the text box.
When i try your code:
var mc:MovieClip=_root.attachMovie(usb, usb,1);
Nothing shows...I have worked with that 4 hours yesterday and read everything, I`m lost!!!

Truth & Rumors > MLB
Why Milwaukee makes little sense for Hamilton

08:19 AM ET 11.01 | The Rangers won't make a preemptive strike to keep Josh Hamilton, which has led to all manner of speculation. One club mentioned prominently, for instance, has been the Milwaukee Brewers. But the Brewers led the National League in runs scored in 2012. Their problem was the bullpen, and they will have to replace two starting pitchers from their initial 2012 rotation. That set of circumstances does not appear to make them an ideal free-agent landing spot for Hamilton. He does appear to be a better fit for an AL club, on which his occasional use as a designated hitter would limit his exposure to potential injury. ... It only takes one club, though, to make the kind of five-year, $100-plus-million offer that Hamilton's talent would seem to dictate.
I'd like to know what club, in their right mind, would offer him a contract of that magnitude?

Whoever give this guy that kind of money is crazy. Just hope its not the rangers
Why Milwaukee makes perfect sense for Josh Hamilton
-Avoids big market pressure cooker cities
-Will have plenty of safety in the lineup
-Brewers still need a replacement for Prince Fielder
-Milwaukee wont overpay for Hamilton
-Miller Park is very accommodating to Hamilton's power
Yeah, Milwaukee needs a little bullpen help. But that doesn't instantly mean that Milwaukee makes zero sense for Hamilton. This kind of sounds like a media ploy to stop Hamilton from signing with a smaller market team.

He stays in the AL.
Would you love to see him playing for the TIGERS? I would.

I'd like to know what club, in their right mind, would offer him a contract of that magnitude?
no ,no,no, he should and must not get a five years deal, but a two years deal would do it,,, i mean the new team needs to take extra precaution if you know what i mean!!!!
Too many bars and nothing else to do there.
He can't afford to be sitting around pounding down those 16 ounce Old Sqwaukees.
Would you love to see him playing for the TIGERS? I would.
No thanks. He breaks down to easily and goes through prolonged slumps. Similar slumps (aside from Cabrera) are what killed the Tigers this season.
I'd like to know what club, in their right mind, would offer him a contract of that magnitude?
He's no Vernon Wells.
Any GM giving him a 9 figure deal is risking his job.
If the Brew Crew decided not to resign number 28 why in the world would they want Hamilton.

- The newly created position of Chief Industry Development Officer was created to improve relations with the real estate industry and enhance data quality through more direct MLS partnerships, says analyst Chris Merwin, lauding the hiring of Errol Samuelson, former Chief Strategy Officer of Move, Inc. and President of Realtor.com.
- "Zillow (Z) will eventually be able to further consolidate audience market share - and ultimately real estate agent marketing budgets - as the need for consumers to find the highest quality data on competing MLS sites diminishes in time ... [Samuelson] has an impressive background of industry credentials that should make it far easier to build bridges with the real estate agent community."
- The stock is maintained at Overweight with $115 price target.

- "Despite a strategy pivot toward shockingly large ad spend" for Trulia (TRLA), Deutsche's Lloyd Walmsley maintains his Buy, though cutting the price target to $43 from $55.
- The "ad wars" may bring pain to Trulia and the online real estate space in the short-term, but they "may hasten the end game where margins bottom out and we see the space consolidate." Trulia, he says, continues to trade at a big discount to the group.

- Trulia (TRLA) expects Q1 revenue $53.1M-$53.5M and 2014 revenue of $245M-$248M, in-line with consensus estimates of $53.3M and $246.3M. With shares coming into earnings trading at 10.9x EV/sales, those numbers could be disappointing some investors.
- Also: Though Trulia's 2014 revenue guidance implies 72% growth at the midpoint, adjusted EBITDA is only expected to grow to $18M-$22M (8% margin at the midpoint) from 2013's $17.1M.
- Marketplace revenue soared 190% Y/Y in Q4 to $42.2M after growing 96% in Q3. Media revenue +26% to $7.6M vs. +22% in Q3.
- Monthly unique visitors +49% Y/Y to 35.3M, mobile monthly uniques +86% to 14.3M. Subscribers rose by 3.3K Q/Q to 59.7K, average revenue/subscriber fell $7 Q/Q and rose $7 Y/Y to $179.
- Sales/marketing spend rose 112% Y/Y to $71.4M. R&D +72% to $34.6M, G&A +139% to $32.7M.
- Zillow (Z), which closed near breakeven after posting a Q4 beat and above-consensus revenue guidance yesterday afternoon, is following Trulia lower.

- In addition to beating Q4 estimates, Zillow (Z) has guided on its CC for 2014 revenue of $288M-$294M, above a $283.9M consensus. But with shares having more than doubled over the last 12 months, investors are deciding to sell on the news.
- Q4's 70% Y/Y revenue growth rate eclipsed Q3's 67% pace. Marketplace revenue (79% of total) +71% Y/Y vs. +73% in Q3, display (ad) revenue +67% vs. +50%.
- Premier Agent subs rose by 8% Q/Q and 64% Y/Y to 48.3K. Average revenue/sub rose $7 Q/Q and $4 Y/Y to $271.
- Monthly unique users rose 57% Y/Y to 54.4M. Mobile visits doubled Y/Y, and now make up 2/3 of visits.
- Sales/marketing spend rose 72% Y/Y to $25M. The growth rate represents a slowdown from Q3's torrid 121% clip. R&D spend rose 62% to $14.6M.

- Several high-flying Internet stocks are getting a lift from Facebook's big Q4 beat, which was accompanied by news the social networking giant's mobile ad sales rose ~4x Y/Y and now account for over half of its ad sales.
- Google reports tomorrow. Twitter and Yelp are due up on Feb. 5, and LinkedIn on Feb. 6.

- U.S. and Chinese Internet stocks are adding to last week's big losses, as investors continue taking profits following major 2013 gains. Chinese stocks were hit last week by an emerging markets selloff, weak PMI data, and an SEC ban (pending appeal) on audits from the Chinese units of big-4 U.S. accounting firms.
- Twitter (TWTR -8.2%), the company bears are most likely to point to when arguing a new Internet stock bubble has formed, is headlining the U.S. decliners. Shares are still up 25% from their post-IPO opening trade of $45.10.
- Other U.S. decliners: GOOG -3.1%. FB -2.9%. YELP -5.3%. Z -5.1%. LNKD -4.3%. P -3.2%. ANGI -4.1%. ZNGA -3.1%. GRPN -3.1%.
- Chinese decliners: BIDU -2.9%. CCIH -19%. BITA -14.6%. CTRP -7.4%. NQ -7.9%. LONG -9.4%. DANG -7.3%. SOHU -4.3%. GOMO -5.8%. SINA -3.3%. QUNR -7.7%. SFUN -5.4%. WBAI -7.5%. RENN -5%.

- Benchmark (Buy, $105 PT) thinks Zillow (Z -1.6%) could miss the firm's Q4 revenue forecast of $56M (Thomson Reuters consensus is at $56.1M) on account of moderating traffic growth.
- Benchmark believes Zillow's Y/Y traffic growth has slowed considerably from an August level of 75%. However, it thinks the company's margins, which have been pressured by aggressive sales/marketing investments, could be better than expected in Q4.
- Both Zillow and Trulia (TRLA -2.4%) are selling off. Benchmark's note comes less than a week after RBC upgraded Zillow and Trulia to Outperform, while citing strong user/subscription growth and mobile momentum (among other things).

- RBC's Mark Mahaney has upgraded Zillow (Z) and Trulia (TRLA) to Outperform after the bell. Shares of both companies are up 1.3% AH.
- Mahaney downgraded Zillow and Trulia last August, after the online real estate platforms saw their shares fly higher with the help of good earnings news. The downgrades were well-timed: Zillow and Trulia both trade below their mid-August levels, and have easily underperformed the Nasdaq since then.

- With high-flying Twitter (downgraded by Macquarie) leading the way, several Internet momentum plays that have delivered big 2013 gains are seeing some year-end profit-taking.
- In addition to Twitter, notable decliners include Netflix (NFLX -2.8%), Pandora (P -3.6%), Trulia (TRLA -2.7%), Zillow (Z -2.4%), and Groupon (GRPN -1.9%).
- On the other hand, many Chinese Internet names are adding to this year's gains. In addition to Baidu (buying Perfect World's e-book unit) and Ctrip (received a bullish T.H. Capital note), gainers include Sina (SINA +4.9%), Dangdang (DANG +4.8%), YY (YY +4%), 58.com (WUBA +3%), and NetEase (NTES +3.4%). An overnight Shanghai rally is likely helping.

- "Zillow (Z) is the market leader of the under-penetrated online real estate market that is: increasing market share, driving high revenue growth (3yr CAGR ~53%), expanding its competitive moat, and set to double margins over the coming years," says analyst Robert Peck initiating with a Buy and $95 price target.
- "Further, the company trades at a significant discount to its growth rate and our $95 target, presenting investors with a unique asset coupled with significant upside potential."

- Deutsche's Lloyd Walmsley is reiterating a Buy and $65 PT for Trulia (TRLA +4.3%), and declares the online/mobile real estate platform has one of "the most compelling valuations relative to growth" among small-cap Internet names.
- Walmsley considers a valuation of 11.9x 2015E EBITDA to be inexpensive, especially since slower-growing Move (MOVE +0.5%) is trading at 12.6x 2015E EBITDA. "To get to a peer group multiple on 2015 would imply zero margin expansion for two years!"
- He also thinks Trulia continues to perform well in the face of a cooling housing market, doesn't expect the company to shell out for a TV ad campaign or acquisition until recently-acquired Market Leader shows more traction.
- Rival Zillow (Z +2.4%), which has a habit of moving in the same direction as Trulia, is also rallying. Both companies are up sharply on the year, but are also well off their September highs.

It has now been awhile since I have been able to contribute to our blog site, and the reasons for that are that it has been very, very busy here at the Broncos, and also that I wanted to be able to do this when there was concise information, not just speculation.
Things change.
There is an old saying that the only constant is change, and that has happened here at the Broncos, with Mike Shanahan no longer the team's head coach and Josh McDaniels coming to the club from his highly successful stint at the New England Patriots.
He is in a whirlwind working pattern right now, interviewing and hiring his coaching staff, organization his administrative offices, and working simultaneously with our player personnel department talking about players, current and potential.
The off season has become a very busy time for all National Football League teams and this is going to be one of the busiest segments of ours.
Coach McDaniels is a dynamic individual who brings a lot of energy and positive vibration into every room he enters.
People don't know this yet, but they will.
Broncos fans don't know just what to expect yet, but they know what they want.
They want to win.
It's as simple as that.
Josh McDaniels is the son of the winningest coach in the history of Canton McKinley High School and has been going to two-a-day practices literally since he was four years old.
He has been described by New England head coach Bill Belichick as a pure football person.
He knows our fans want to win, and nobody knows our fan base better than team owner Pat Bowlen, who made the hire after being tremendously impressed by McDaniels.
Right now it is an exciting time of putting together a staff, and then the team will continue to move forward into philosophy, personnel and the scheduling of necessary team logistics.
There has never been a better time to keep in touch with the Denver Broncos web site, and I know we all share the excitement of watching how the Broncos will be remodeled for 2009.

Work even more, with iLane (not the official slogan)
Ever since the State of California passed its hands-free driving law, I've actually started making more phone calls--in and out of my car--using my iPhone's earbuds and mic.
I guess the law made me more aware that I actually have a mic on my earbuds and walking down the street while seemingly talking to yourself is a great way to freak people out. Although not so much in San Francisco anymore.
Damn tangents. Anyway, the earbuds and mic are great for phone calls, but what about e-mail and voice messages? Well, IMS is saying it has you covered. … Read more

It's hardly new news that many family farms likely won't be family farms after the current generation dies or retires.
For a long time now agriculture experts have been warning that fewer young people are signing on to run their parents' farms, opting instead for college and careers. That's in line with national and international urban living trends.
During the post-World War II years, many returning American veterans took advantage of the GI Bill to go to college, and they flocked to raise their families in the newly created suburbs - not to the family farm.
A recent Michigan State University study found that just 38 percent of Michigan farmers planning to retire in 10 years would be passing their farms on to a single heir. That has certainly been the case in the Grand Traverse area, where cherry farmers have long worried who would take over the farm when they retired.
There has been a bit of a reversal in recent years as more young people have embraced the "eat local" mantra and have taken an interest in not just knowing where their food is coming from, but growing it.
An innovative program is now helping pair young people who want to get back to the land with places they can actually farm without having to own it first.
Like the residency programs that have helped train doctors for generations, the program would take people completing farmer internships or apprenticeships and offer them land owned by the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy to farm.
Amanda Kik, co-director of the Institute for Sustainable Living, Art & Natural Design, or ISLAND, one of the nonprofits starting the program, said it's more than educational. It's intended to provide "rational support to get that farm business off the ground," she said.
The residency program is designed to help young people who want to become farmers but don't have family land or a farming background learn how to manage a farm before buying land.
Residents may become eligible for a low-interest Department of Agriculture loan, though that requires at least three years of land management.
Michelle Ferrase, who heads the ISLAND board of directors and runs Birch Point Farm on land she rents, said the "No. 1 challenge facing incoming farmers is access to land." It's more difficult when that land is priced based on its developmental, not agricultural, value.
This is smart stuff, particularly for an area where lots of people are planting vineyards, launching wineries and breweries and foodies are looking for places that feature locally produced food.
In an era of more and more corporate mega-farms, the region needs food options; we won't have them without the people to do the work.

Dear Friends & Family:
It's hard to believe that we are approaching the 6th annual team "Sweet Misa" JDRF walk. We do not know how to thank all of our friends and family for continuing to allow us to making this happen. Our family is so blessed to have all of you in our lives. It has been a long journey and we are so happy to have had the opportunity to share this with all of you. Marisa made it through Kindergarten and is a happy first grader now. We had a few hard experiences this year. In late January Marisa had the flu and we could not get her blood sugar down, we ended up in the Hospital for a few day. Then in April she got sick again and we could not get her blood sugar up, this was another trip to the Hospital. Each Hospital visit was a challenging time but we made it through.
Each year our team grows and continues to raise more money for this cause. In the past years our team has set a goal and successfully passed that goal. This year our goal is $5000.00 and to have as many walkers as we can. We are so honored and touched to have such great family and friends to help us not only meet but exceed our goals. Your time and generosity has put us one step closer to finding a cure for Marisa and we sincerely thank you all for being a part of this milestone. We would once again like to invite you to join our team for the 2012 walk to find a cure for Diabetes on Saturday November 2, 2013 at Tempe Town Lake. Registration starts at 7:30 am and the walk beginning at 9:00 am. I would like to challenge all of you to recruit at least one person to join our team this year. We would love to see a sea of Sweet Misa t-shirts in the crowd.
As you know, Marisa will never outgrow Type 1 Diabetes; the only solution is a cure. That's why the JDRF has a single mission to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research as soon as possible. The JDRF is committed to delivering better treatments– and ultimately a cure – to people with type 1 diabetes. Over its
40 years, JDRF has funded $1.5 billion in diabetes research –more than any other charitable organization. It has become the largest charitable fund of and advocate for type 1 diabetes research, setting the agenda for diabetes research worldwide. In FY2010, JDRF funded more than $107 million in research in 19 countries worldwide, including more than 40 human clinical trials – the final stage of research before new therapies can reach the people who can benefit from them.
That's where you come in. Please help Marisa and all the 18 million people with Diabetes by supporting "Sweet Misa" in the JDRF Walk for a Cure on November 2, 2013 at Tempe Town Lake. There are two ways you can help:
1. You can join Team Sweet Misa consisting of friends and family members who collect their own pledges and walk with us. You can register by going to www.walk.jdrf.org then select Arizona as your state. Click on Tempe Town Lake as the location. Click on Register for This walk!, Then choose join a team, search Sweet Misa as your team and choose family for the team type. Keep filling in the walker information.
2. You can send us a tax-deductible donation, made payable to JDRF or donate online at www.walk.jdrf.org Then select Arizona as your state. Click on Tempe Town Lake as the walk location. Then choose the Donate Now option. You will then be able to search by team or walker. Fill in the information needed.
We are very hopeful the JDRF will find a cure in Marisa's life time. Won't you please help Marisa and the many children this disease has affected?
Thank you for your love and support.

Doberman In 'Hugo' Snubbed For Dog Movie Award
By editor
Originally published on Mon January 30, 2012 6:11 am
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Martin Scorsese got 11 Oscar nods for his film "Hugo." Still, he's calling in the L.A. Times a write-in campaign for an actor he feels has been snubbed. Blackie, the Doberman in "Hugo," failed to get a nomination for a Golden Collar, awarded by Dog News Daily. The cute Jack Russell who starred in "The Artist" was nominated, but Blackie is an anti-hero. And just a few hundred Facebook votes will earn him a chance at top dog. It's MORNING EDITION.

protein, preworkouts, and a multi. You cannot run out of these three
protein, preworkouts, and a multi. You cannot run out of these three
Pwo, aminos, mono
Now mine includes Enhanced, game changer!! Everything else I can live without if it came to it but a good pump with amazing energy is just plain addictive... Hello my name is d1sc1ple and I am an Enhancedaholic.
Same as 804 protein, multi, and a pre workout if not on stim break.
Multi, fish oil, and vitamin c. Those 3 have helped keep me healthy through my journey and are something I wouldn't go without. Maybe replace the vitamin c with beta alanine if the multi has enough and I'm eating a lot of vitamin c rich foods. But on a cut for sure vitamin c is a staple.
If I could only have three, multi, vitamin d, vitamin b complex. I eat enough fish to not NEED fish oil and protein I could just get from whole foods. But those two would be my fourth and fifth selections.
