East Ridge police are looking for a man in connection with Tuesday's armed robbery of KFC on Ringgold Road, according to police spokesman Officer Erik Hopkins.
Officers responded to a robbery call at the restaurant shortly before 10 p.m.
Restaurant staff told officers that a black male approximately 6-foot-1 wearing a plaid, long-sleeve shirt, khaki pants and a dark ski mask jumped over the counter and showed a handgun.
The man demanded the manager open the safe and a cash register. He fled with a small amount of money just before officers arrived, said Hopkins.
Officers assisted by a K-9 unit from the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office tracked the robber to the area of the East Ridge Village Apartments at 5322 Clemons Road but were unable to locate him, Hopkins said.
Police are asking anyone with information about the robbery to call 423-867-3718.
A confidential tip line is available at 423-867-0016.

Michael Bloomberg was born on February 14, 1942, in Boston, Massachusetts. Bloomberg put himself through Johns Hopkins and Harvard and became a partner at Salomon Brothers. He started his own company which revolutionized the distribution of financial information and made him a billionaire. In 2002, Bloomberg became mayor of New York City. He was re-elected for a second, then a controversial third term.
Early Life
Michael Rubens Bloomberg was born on February 14, 1942, in Boston, Massachusetts. The son of a bookkeeper, Bloomberg put himself through Johns Hopkins University and Harvard University, where he earned a Master of Business Administration degree in 1966. His first Wall Street job was with Salomon Brothers, where he quickly climbed the ladder, becoming partner in 1972.
Bloomberg L.P.
When Salomon Brothers was bought in 1981, Bloomberg started his own company, Bloomberg L.P., built around a financial information computer that revolutionized the way securities data was stored and consumed. The company was enormously successful and soon branched into the media business with more than 100 offices worldwide. As one of the wealthiest men in the world, Bloomberg chose to turn his attentions to philanthropy, with an emphasis on education, medical research and the arts.
New York Mayor
Bloomberg entered the political arena in 2002, when he won election as the 108th mayor of New York. Considered a liberal Republican, Bloomberg is pro-choice and in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage. His most popular program as mayor was establishing a 311 telephone line that put callers in contact with the city, allowing them to report crimes, trash problems, or anything else. Bloomberg was re-elected mayor in November 2005.
Controversially, in 2008 Bloomberg was able to push through legislation allowing him to run for a third term as mayor, citing that the particularly difficult economic climate and his financial skills warranted his remaining in office. After spending an unprecedented amount of his own money (upwards of $90 million) on the campaign Bloomberg secured a third four-year term in November of 2009.
In November 2013, Bloomberg talked with Forbes magazine about his life after he leaves office. He and his girlfriend Diana Taylor are planning to take their first vacation since he became mayor after he steps down in January 2014. Democrat Bill de Blasio will become New York City's new mayor.
Bloomberg published an autobiography, Bloomberg by Bloomberg, in 1997. He and his former wife, Susan Brown, have two daughters, Georgina and Emma.

A good party always has some surprises—and that goes for political parties, too. Though the United States has had a two-party system for most of its history, party loyalty is not always written in stone. Over the years many politicians have switched sides, for ideological, political, and strategic reasons. Here are some of the politicians who have crossed to the other side of the aisle.

Eagle Scouts
Incorporated in 1910, the Boy Scouts of America was founded with the aim of instilling ethics and morals into the lives of young boys. A Scout is a "trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent," boy who, above all, strives to "be prepared" and "do his best." The highest order of these Boy Scouts are the Eagle Scouts, a rare group of young men who rise through the scouting ranks to earn 21 merit badges, serve for six months in a troop leadership position, and successfully complete a strict Eagle Scout board of review, among other requirements.
The first Eagle Scout to complete this training was 17-year-old Arthur R. Eldred, on September 2, 1912. Since then, more than 2 million Boy Scouts have earned the coveted rank. Here are some of the most famous of the honorable young men who made it to the top of the Boy Scouts program.Eagle Scouts 26 people in this group

i actually read that just today too. i did actually google "why dont teams run triangle anymore"
but imo the article just shows how apologetic people can be for players and coaches. there [should] be no such thing as "impatient" "too hard" when you are making millions of dollars at the highest level of sport. if there is a true winning culture, players will do anything for the system.
it goes to show how low in the gutter some teams are in the league when they settle for average coaches, average players, and average (losing?) winning records.
Thank you...I thought it was a good piece as well.
Disclaimer: I am no expert on the triangle nor for that matter anything beyond rudimentary practice of the game. The points which stood out for me (though I am not sure getting up the floor quick was a prime need) :
1. The system is not in use in the current NBA....there must be reasons
2. Phil Jackson (with help from Tex Winter) was the last coach to use it ...and be successful with it
3. PJ had Jordan & Pippen & Rodman and Gasol & Kobe & Odom on his two teams
4. Had a pretty good supporting cast with players like Paxson and Kerr in Chic and admittedly lesser in LA
5. Good post play is essential by most in the group
6. Movement without the ball is a must...and of course attention to detail (location)
7. Good passing an absolute
8. These teams took a while before becoming successful practioners (and used experienced bb/high iq players)
9. Point forward (non traditional pg) ...Kobe, Pippen, Jordan, Odom had the ball in their hands quite a bit and initiated
10. I think the ref. to the non-reqt of great indiv. talent pertained to the supporting cast in principle and their athleticism but as I noted the players with the ball in their hands most were anything but it seems.
Seeing as how recent history shows that only 2 teams played this system at a championship level and used some of the best players in history and one coach (and no one else uses it)... gives me pause that in actuality it is a difficult system to perfect and sustain especially with the movement of players from teams in today's NBA.
Our own "big 3" would be JV, Gay and Lowry. JV is raw and with some post skills and an offensive game still in development. I am not Lowry and Gay are great passers or have post games which stand out either...except in a mismatch. DD is pretty much the same. In a nutshell my own sense says our team as constituted would have trouble.
I honestly think we the players they had they could have run ANY offense and had success. Show me an offense that makes a shit team better
Definition of Statistics: The science of producing unreliable facts from reliable figures.
I think it's rare in the NBA but, you're on to something in this case:
Source: ESPN.comThe Clippers, sources said, are willing to surrender cash and multiple draft picks to secure Rivers' services
You called it.
which leads to this...Toronto Raptors President and General Manager, Basketball Operations Masai Ujiri announced Wednesday that Head Coach Dwane Casey will return for the 2013-14 season.
Im excited about moving forward and growing this team with Coach Casey, said Ujiri.
Casey is in the final year of a contract extension signed following the 2011-12 campaign.
An announcement will be made in the future regarding the clubs assistant coaching staff.
from http://blog.raptors.com/a-few-minute...m-masai-ujiri/
something tells me Casey is going to have a new gaggle of assistants.JS: Any updates on the status of head coach Dwane Casey or potential changes to his staff?
MU: Things are on the move and were still going through the process. Well figure it out and I know thats a wide-ranging answer. Things have gone well with Coach, weve had tons and tons of meetings, we have dinner tonight [Tuesday] with Rudy Gay, so were moving the right way. As those decisions [with assistants] need to be made, we will make them the best way we feel is heading in the right direction for the organization.
Now that Casey is in charge, I hope he gets a clean slate.
No more front office politics interfering.
Lets see what you have Casey.
Go back to year 1 defense and get an assistant in who you can trust to take an active role on the offensive end.... essentially the opposite role he had in Dallas with Carlisle.

Basketball has clear winners every night --except at the draft, which is all homework, politics and chance.
I've said it before and i'll say it again, bring in Brian Shaw to run the offense, gonna cost you ca$$$$h but hey if that's what it takes, that's what it takes.

Basketball has clear winners every night --except at the draft, which is all homework, politics and chance.
So, it is official - Casey will return to the bench for the beginning of 2013-2014 campaign. Will he finish it remains to be seen. I surely hope so...

Regardless, I don't think this should surprise anyone. Ujiri seems to be quite fond of Casey.Toronto Raptors President and General Manager, Basketball Operations Masai Ujiri announced Wednesday that Head Coach Dwane Casey will return for the 2013-14 season.
"I'm excited about moving forward and growing this team with Coach Casey," said Ujiri.
Casey is in the final year of a contract extension signed following the 2011-12 campaign.

Casey got far too much credit in year one and far too much blame in year 2. He strikes me as an average coach who doesn't make you much better than, nor does he make you much worse, your talent. In other words, he's the same as about 80% of the coaches in the NBA. Unless you're replacing him with someone who is much, much better, I never saw the point of firing him at the moment.
In Casey's favour, he should have a much better JV, a motivated Lowry (CONTRACT YEAR!), a healthy Rudy Gay and, presumably, Ujiri is going to get the roster some help. Unless, of course, everyone gets traded next week....
You left out hopefully no Bargnani Bullshit....
A lot of that Bargnani bullshit came from upstairs and BC not wanting to quit on Italian Lebron. Mitchell admitted as much and it was more than evident during this past season

It has been suggested that Statement (logic) be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since February 2013. |
The term 'proposition' has a broad use in contemporary philosophy. It is used to refer to some or all of the following: the primary bearers of truth-value, the objects of belief and other "propositional attitudes" (i.e., what is believed, doubted, etc.[1]), the referents of that-clauses and the meanings of sentences. Propositions are the sharable objects of the attitudes and the primary bearers of truth and falsity. This stipulation rules out certain candidates for propositions, including thought- and utterance-tokens which presumably are not sharable, and concrete events or facts, which presumably cannot be false.[1]
Historical usage[edit]
By Aristotle[edit]
Aristotelian logic identifies a proposition as a sentence which affirms or denies a predicate of a subject. An Aristotelian proposition may take the form "All men are mortal" or "Socrates is a man." In the first example the subject is "All men" and the predicate "are mortal." In the second example the subject is "Socrates" and the predicate is "is a man."
By the logical positivists[edit]
Often propositions are related to closed sentences to distinguish them from what is expressed by an open sentence. In this sense, propositions are "statements" that are truth bearers. This conception of a proposition was supported by the philosophical school of logical positivism.
Some philosophers argue that some (or all) kinds of speech or actions besides the declarative ones also have propositional content. For example, yes–no questions present propositions, being inquiries into the truth value of them. On the other hand, some signs can be declarative assertions of propositions without forming a sentence nor even being linguistic, e.g. traffic signs convey definite meaning which is either true or false.
Propositions are also spoken of as the content of beliefs and similar intentional attitudes such as desires, preferences, and hopes. For example, "I desire that I have a new car," or "I wonder whether it will snow" (or, whether it is the case that "it will snow"). Desire, belief, and so on, are thus called propositional attitudes when they take this sort of content.
By Russell[edit]
Bertrand Russell held that propositions were structured entities with objects and properties as constituents. Wittgenstein held that a proposition is the set of possible worlds/states of affairs in which it is true. One important difference between these views is that on the Russellian account, two propositions that are true in all the same states of affairs can still be differentiated. For instance, the proposition that two plus two equals four is distinct on a Russellian account from three plus three equals six. If propositions are sets of possible worlds, however, then all mathematical truths (and all other necessary truths) are the same set (the set of all possible worlds).
Relation to the mind[edit]
In relation to the mind, propositions are discussed primarily as they fit into propositional attitudes. Propositional attitudes are simply attitudes characteristic of folk psychology (belief, desire, etc.) that one can take toward a proposition (e.g. 'it is raining,' 'snow is white,' etc.). In English, propositions usually follow folk psychological attitudes by a "that clause" (e.g. "Jane believes that it is raining"). In philosophy of mind and psychology, mental states are often taken to primarily consist in propositional attitudes. The propositions are usually said to be the "mental content" of the attitude. For example, if Jane has a mental state of believing that it is raining, her mental content is the proposition 'it is raining.' Furthermore, since such mental states are about something (namely propositions), they are said to be intentional mental states. Philosophical debates surrounding propositions as they relate to propositional attitudes have also recently centered on whether they are internal or external to the agent or whether they are mind-dependent or mind-independent entities (see the entry on internalism and externalism in philosophy of mind).
Treatment in logic[edit]
As noted above, in Aristotelian logic a proposition is a particular kind of sentence, one which affirms or denies a predicate of a subject. Aristotelian propositions take forms like "All men are mortal" and "Socrates is a man."
Propositions show up in formal logic as objects of a formal language. A formal language begins with different types of symbols. These types can include variables, operators, function symbols, predicate (or relation) symbols, quantifiers, and propositional constants. (Grouping symbols are often added for convenience in using the language but do not play a logical role.) Symbols are concatenated together according to recursive rules in order to construct strings to which truth-values will be assigned. The rules specify how the operators, function and predicate symbols, and quantifiers are to be concatenated with other strings. A proposition is then a string with a specific form. The form that a proposition takes depends on the type of logic.
The type of logic called propositional, sentential, or statement logic includes only operators and propositional constants as symbols in its language. The propositions in this language are propositional constants, which are considered atomic propositions, and composite propositions, which are composed by recursively applying operators to propositions. Application here is simply a short way of saying that the corresponding concatenation rule has been applied.
The types of logics called predicate, quantificational, or n-order logic include variables, operators, predicate and function symbols, and quantifiers as symbols in their languages. The propositions in these logics are more complex. First, terms must be defined. A term is (i) a variable or (ii) a function symbol applied to the number of terms required by the function symbol's arity. For example, if + is a binary function symbol and x, y, and z are variables, then x+(y+z) is a term, which might be written with the symbols in various orders. A proposition is (i) a predicate symbol applied to the number of terms required by its arity, (ii) an operator applied to the number of propositions required by its arity, or (iii) a quantifier applied to a proposition. For example, if = is a binary predicate symbol and ∀ is a quantifier, then ∀x,y,z [(x = y) → (x+z = y+z)] is a proposition. This more complex structure of propositions allows these logics to make finer distinctions between inferences, i.e., to have greater expressive power.
In this context, propositions are also called sentences, statements, statement forms, formulas, and well-formed formulas, though these terms are usually not synonymous within a single text. This definition treats propositions as syntactic objects, as opposed to semantic or mental objects. That is, propositions in this sense are meaningless, formal, abstract objects. They are assigned meaning and truth-values by mappings called interpretations and valuations, respectively.
Objections to propositions[edit]
Attempts to provide a workable definition of proposition include
Two meaningful declarative sentences express the same proposition if and only if they mean the same thing.
thus defining proposition in terms of synonymity. For example, "Snow is white" (in English) and "Schnee ist weiß" (in German) are different sentences, but they say the same thing, so they express the same proposition.
Two meaningful declarative sentence-tokens express the same proposition if and only if they mean the same thing.
Unfortunately, the above definition has the result that two sentences/sentence-tokens which have the same meaning and thus express the same proposition, could have different truth-values, e.g. "I am Spartacus" said by Spartacus and said by John Smith; and e.g. "It is Wednesday" said on a Wednesday and on a Thursday.
A number of philosophers and linguists claim that all definitions of a proposition are too vague to be useful. For them, it is just a misleading concept that should be removed from philosophy and semantics. W.V. Quine maintained that the indeterminacy of translation prevented any meaningful discussion of propositions, and that they should be discarded in favor of sentences.[2] Strawson advocated the use of the term "statement".
Related concepts[edit]
Facts are verifiable information.[citation needed][3] Simple facts are often stated as propositions: "Apples are a type of fruit." The opposite statement—"Apples are not a type of fruit"—is still a properly formulated proposition, even though it is false (not a fact). Most statements of fact are compound facts: e.g., that apples exist, that fruit exists, that there are multiple types of fruit, etc.
A premise is a proposition that is used as the foundation for drawing conclusions. For example:
- Premise: "Apples are a type of fruit."
- Premise: "All types of fruit are food."
- Conclusion: "Therefore, apples are food."
If the conclusion is false then either one or more of the premises is false or the process of combining the premises is logically invalid. If the premises are true and the process is logically valid, then the conclusion is true as well.

Eyewitness Tattoo IncNeighborhoods:
DO NOT GET YOUR VAG PIERCED HERE!!!! i got my vch piercing done here by CALEB and was wondering why it wasn't stimulating anything for a month. so i had it checked out at another place, by a woman, and she told me it was totally pierced wrong. it was no where near my "pearl" and she offered to repierce it and all is good now! I called Caleb at eyewitness and informed him that he pierced me wrong and things would be even if he refunded my money. He said he wouldn't and refused to believe he pierced me wrong. He acted like he put tomatoes on my burger when it's actually my vag and sex life he messed with. LADIES, if you are getting an intimate piercing down there GO TO A WOMAN. Just trust me!!!! breasts are one thing but a vag a woman really isn't scared to dig in there and find exactly where your "pearl" is and what you need to stimulate it. you're a sexist bimbo, caleb. You should not be allowed to pierce if you don't know what you're doing.
I am by no means a virgin when it comes to tattoo's.
But, Would not take my dog there to get an ID tattoo'd on the inside of their lip. I made a mistake, and had a $2200 name tattooed on my back 7 hours of work was a masterpiece the relationship was not. Went in to see if they could modify it and the support staff was helpful, but had the tattoo "artist", rather I mean a@@hole look at it.
I was eargerly waiting for him to say it could be modified and had a hopeful smile on my face, and he said, you shouldn't be smiling. (Have to admit he was right the end of relationship doesn't make one giddy)
I thought dumba@@, I did this one in one 7 hour session, not afraid of the pain, and could be mistaken for a disco ball when it comes to piercings, AND the money is not an issue. No way would I trust someone with such hostility/bad karma to do anything temporary to my body much less something permanent.
Thanks, but no thanks, I will return to Katz Tattoos in Dallas...
I had my most recent tattoo done here last week. The shop is clean and beautiful, with a nice open feel. Zac did professional and gorgeous work for me, and he was so interesting that I also had a genuinely great time. I would highly recommend EyeWitness! I am very pleased!
You guys rock! – Not my first tattoo. The place is CLEAN. The guys take pride in cleanliness and safety. Very honest and upfront with designs and if /or how they will appear. Extrememly friendly. I couldn't have been more comfortable getting inked in my living room. The guys were terrific from the second I walked in to the "see you in a few weeks for the next one" exit. Rev - thanks a million. It healed up perfectly and it looks fabulous! I WILL be back and I WILL tell everyone I know, they need to come see you guys!!
Amazing and Painless – I went to get my first tattoo and was painfully nerves. The guys there were really nice and talked me through every step. My artists name was Jacob, he was awesomely friendly and answered all the stupid question's I had. I didn't feel any pain and it was over fast! I will be back and if anyone want's to know were to go for the best experience it's defiantly Eyewitness. Thank you guys so much.
Your Newest Customer,
Brandy W.
Seriously put off – Several years ago I went with my sister to get her naval pierced and I have to say the experience was excellent all around. Quick, professional and thorough with lots of customer education. Last year I went just to get my ears pierced and found they had moved a few doors down. The whole shop feels very "exposed" which might be cool for some but not for me. The gentleman behind the counter was incredibly rude, he seemed annoyed by questions and reluctant to even discuss anything with us. I asked for a price quote and found it excessive to charge almost $80 for a simple lobe piercing. When I questioned the price and whether there was a more private spot to get the work done, I was advised to try the mall. I had always had a high opinion of Eyewitness but I will not be returning.
Awesome Experience – Went it and had something specific in mind, I explained it and got nothing less than what i wanted! I will go back the guys there were super friendly! They were a little pricier than some of the others i checked into but You get what you pay for! Will recommend this place to anyone seeking a new tattoo!
I'll be going back asap! – This is a beautiful shop and the employees were very professional. The tattoo I got was really amazing! It was clean and the line work was perfect. I always wanted some flowers creeping up my leg and my artist was able to put together exactly what I needed. When I figure out my next piece I'm going back to Eyewitness.
best all-around – my sister and brother-in-law went to jacob at eyewitness for some work years ago. i was doing alot of research, my first tattoo and was really nervous. checked out alot of places, but no place was as clean and friendly as eyewitness. would definetly recomend this shop and jacob in particular. the whole experience was amazing, everyone made me feel very at ease.
High quality, clean shop, top service – As a U.S. Navy Sailor, the ink on my skin tells sea stories for me. Few things are as traditional or personal as the art we wear on our bodies. These stories and traditions are far too important to let just anyone "tell" them for us. The Artists at Eyewitness Tattoo are simply the best in the business. They are the only shop that does my work, and if that means crossing the world to get there for my next piece... I did it twice, and I'll come back again. Thanks Cliff and Rev; Fair Winds and following seas-

4.5 great Glor85 | 05/03/2009 | See all Glor85's reviews (8) Awsome retro playing game. Will make u come back 2 it if u're bored.
4.5 Good Buy not Goodbye! shell66 | 09/10/2008 | See all shell66's reviews (6) Sometimes I'm not sure what some of these reviewers are on about! There is only one space invaders concept and this pays good homage to it. If you are old enough to remember the original then you'll love it. If you're young enough to be laughing at those old enough to remember the original give it a go you'll be hooked!
4.5 amazing remake! macc86 | 26/07/2008 | See all macc86's reviews (2) personally im not a big fan of retro games i prefer better graphics, more choice of gameplay and gripping story's but space invaiders extreme is quite addictive. i purchased this game around 2 months ago and although this game wont keep you entertained for long its one that you can keep taking off your shelve every once in a while, it has great sounds that you (kinda) control and good lighting effects overall it is a great remake of a retro classic.
4.5 Nah thatguy101 | 19/07/2008 | See all thatguy101's reviews (32) Poor game i don't see why Sony are bringing back these retro games as they are to deer and poor Sony should focas on new generation games for there console a game for someone who wants to relight there passion for Games.
4.5 Its Space Invaders but now with more EXTREME!! Mobius | 18/06/2008 | See all Mobius's reviews (173) Its still space invaders but it now has Music, ok lets try it this way Its Space invaders but you sort of control the music, or how about Its Space invaders with controlable music and sort of plays like REZ.yes thats it, If you have played REZ, a sort of Space Harrier with music then imagine Space Invaders done the same way. oddly enough it does work, it shouldnt but it works, developers have spent years trying to remarket the all time Classic Space invaders and now they got it right. Old Skool for the next generation.

It's over!
October 17, 2013 @ 5:21 am (Updated: 11:48 am - 10/17/13 )
And according to Standard and Poors, the cost to the economy of these last 16 days totaled $24 billion.
We lost $24 billion to discover that even politicians, who ran against Big Government, ended up wanting to restore just about everything that Big Government was doing.
We lost $24 billion delaying a result which the president predicted 16 days ago.
"There are enough reasonable Republicans and Democrats in the House who are willing to vote yes, shutdown would be over," said Obama.
Twenty-four billion dollars delaying a result which Senator McCain predicted again eight days ago.
"We know how it is going to end. We will raise the debt limit," said McCain.
But maybe, maybe it was money well spent. Because we got to know Senator Ted Cruz.
"We should fund the VA, Mr. President. The majority leader of the Senate refused to allow the Senate even to vote," said Cruz.
And yes, it may have cost $24 billion. But hearing an opponent of government-run health care passionately supporting the veterans administration? Priceless.
Listen: President Obama speaks after government reopens
Gov't open again, Obama bemoans senseless damage
Vote to end shutdown could linger in 2014

David, you have been an expert on digital paper in the past and have given great tips on printing. I still do a lot of BW and I talked to Eric at digital silver imaging and tried one of his RC prints. I am impressed with the results for BW. I believe those out there that are doing BW should give them a try. I know many print there own but if you don't this is a great alternative for BW prints. I contacted their service in the beginning just to have my LX3 converted to infrared which is being done.I discovered he was really nice to deal with so I tried a print from him. I have done two since. I feel people out there should check his site out. Monte Johnson

Veterinarians understand that consumption of an adequate amount of good-quality colostrum is vital to providing calves with antibodies that protect them against infectious disease during the first few months of life. It appears that other factors in colostrum are also important for helping the calf develop its own immune response to immune challenges, including vaccination.
Adequate levels of fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A and E are necessary for a normal immune response to vaccination or infection. "Fat-soluble vitamins such as A and E do not cross the placenta well, but they are present in high concentration of colostrum from cows that have been consuming diets sufficient in these nutrients," says Amelia Woolums, DVM, MVSc, PhD, DACVIM, DACVM, University of Georgia. "Calves that do not ingest an adequate volume of good-quality colostrum will begin life deficient in these vitamins, which will make them unable to respond properly to vaccination as long as the deficiency persists."
Maternal cells that are present in colostrum may also help stimulate the calf's immune system and improve response to vaccination and other immunological stimuli. Neonatal animals of many species have been shown to absorb live maternal cells in colostrum (primarily monocytes and lymphocytes). "Research has shown that immune cells from calves receiving colostrum containing maternal cells more rapidly developed the capacity to 'present' antigen," Woolums explains. "The calves' own immune cells were more quickly able to initiate an immune response to foreign substance." They also showed evidence of presenting antigen within a week after birth, in contrast to calves that received colostrum from which cells had been removed, which were only able to present antigen at two to three weeks after birth (AJVR 66:1854, 2005).
Woolums notes another study showing that cells from calves receiving fresh colostrum containing maternal cells responded to stimulation with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) by 24 hours after birth (AJVR 68:778, 2007). "Although the responses to BVDV did not persist for more than a few days, they may have induced a chain reaction of immune stimulation that could have improved response to vaccination, if it had occurred," Woolums says. These studies provide evidence that live maternal cells in colostrum can stimulate and perhaps improve a calf's immune response if it is exposed to immunological stimuli such as vaccination or infection, although much is still not known about their effects.
Feeding good-quality frozen colostrum is sometimes done to provide a calf with an optimal amount if its dam's colostrum is inadequate. However, frozen colostrum will not contain live maternal cells. "We don't have enough information to say if it's better for a calf to get frozen colostrum with a good level of antibody but no living cells, or fresh colostrum with a suboptimal level of antibody but live cells," Woolums says.
"For now, because so much research has shown the benefit of providing calves colostrum with a good amount of antibody, it's probably best to stick with the better-quality frozen colostrum, if that is the only way to provide a calf with colostrum containing a sufficient level of antibody. However, if fresh good-quality colostrum can be given, we now know that the live cells in the colostrum induce changes in the calf's immune system that may lead to better response to vaccination and better pro-tection against disease."
Woolums adds that other factors in colostrum such as lactoferrin may play a role in preparing the calf's immune system to respond to vaccination or other immunologic stimuli, but more research is needed in this area.
Nutrition's effect on calf immunology
Aside from fat-soluble vitamins, animals deficient in minerals such as zinc, selenium, copper and chromium have suboptimal immune responses to vaccination and other immunological stimuli. Stud-ies have evaluated the effect of supplementing diets with various vitamins and minerals to improve immunity and disease resistance in cattle. "In general, providing levels of vitamins and minerals in ex-cess of what calves require has not consistently proven to improve immune response or disease re-sistance in a clear way," Woolums says. "However, supplementation of animals that are deficient does improve immunity and resistance to disease."
Calves fed diets deficient in protein and energy also have suboptimal responses to vaccination and other stimulation of the immune system. "Some producers have been feeding dairy calves on 'intensi-fied' schedules that provide relatively more energy and protein than was historically fed to calves," Woolums says. Research by scientists at USDA-ARS and Cornell University showed that immune cells from calves fed an intensified milk-replacer diet produced less interferon gamma and more nitric oxide in response to immunologic-stimulation than did cells from calves fed a diet lower in energy and protein (J Dairy Sci 86:3592, 2003).
"Gamma interferon and nitric oxide are important mediators of immune responsiveness, particularly cell-mediated immune responses," Woolums explains. "While this research showed that dietary en-ergy and protein appeared to have an effect on some aspects of the immune response, more re-search is needed before we know the importance of any effect intensified diets may have on the re-sponse post-vaccination or infection."

Article: Engineering Cooktops A Productive Partnership
Gas stove manufacturer Rinnai Corporation is enjoying success in the Japanese market with the help of Schott Ceran glass ceramic cooktops.
Rinnai began to establish ties outside Japan very early on. Its first contacts were in 1955 to a German manufacturer of radiant IR gas burners. Convinced by the potentially high demand of such appliances on the Japanese market, Mr. Naito began a cooperation agreement.
The radiant gas burners with "Ceran," developed jointly by this German manufacturer and Schott Glass (Mainz, Germany) in the 1970s, further aroused Rinnai's interest. Thus, the company contacted Schott for the first time about the product for the Japanese market.
The partnership between Rinnai and Schott has existed for 25 years. "Our collaboration with Schott is based on mutual trust," Mr. Naito says. One of the highlights of the cooperation is a gas burner system, or inner burner, that Rinnai designed in 1999. From this idea, Rinnai engineers developed together with Schott a gas stove with a Ceran glass ceramic cooktop panel. The high-temperature resistance of the glass ceramic made it possible to combine the efficient burner with the cooking surface.
Convincing Product Advantages
Ceran cooktop panels are gaining popularity in Japan, mainly because of their design. The smooth, even surface of the robust and durable products is also a desirable feature.
According to national consumer surveys, Japanese customers prefer gas stoves with Ceran because the stoves are simple to handle and easy to clean. This is a big advantage, especially in light of typical Japanese deep-fried dishes. In addition to the kitchen makers that are now increasingly offering these appliances in their product programs, many prominent Japanese cooking schools also use the gas stoves. In this application, the crucial factor is that the new type of cooking stove has to be equally suitable for preparing French, Chinese, and Japanese meals. According to Schott, this has been achieved by a new burner system, which features high-efficiency, good adjustability, and excellent temperature distribution at all heating levels.
Joint Marketing Efforts
The Japanese are also known for their extremely high brand consciousness. The name "Schott," which stands for good quality and reliability in the opinion of Japanese consumers - like many other German brands - plays an important role in marketing the new gas stoves. The cookers are thus advertised with success in the combination "Rinnai and Schott Ceran from Germany." According to Rinnai, many Japanese customers - as enthusiasts for detail - even want to see the German flag as an adhesive label on the Ceran cooktop panels.
With its current success, Rinnai is optimistic about its future in the Japanese market. "Customers are always our top priority," says Yoshio Yamazaki, president of Rinnai. "And 2003 is an important year for us. With our gas stove products with Ceran we hope to become the market leader in Japan with a share of between 70 and 80 percent."
Intensifying the Partnership
In the meantime, Rinnai and Schott have extended their cooperation agreement. The goal of both companies is to expand and intensify the partnership they have in Japan and Korea to all of Asia.
The Japanese market for gas stoves currently amounts to 5 million cookers. Rinnai's market share is about 55 percent, but the number of gas stoves with Ceran is already substantial. Rinnai is convinced that many consumers will soon prefer mostly Rinnai gas stoves with Ceran, and that its market share will increase.
Rinnai's main target in Eastern Asia is South Korea. With the considerable purchasing power of the population, South Korea has developed into the second most important market for Rinnai in Asia. Koreans not only attach importance to high-quality products, they are also very discerning about style and design.
"The new gas stoves with Ceran glass ceramic cooktop panels have revolutionized kitchens in Korea," says So Mo Kang, president of Rinnai Korea. The high-quality technical features of the cooking appliances sold under the "Jewell" brand name have catapulted Rinnai to the position of market leader for gas stoves. "This is an important turning point for us," Mr. Kang says. "While functionality used to play the central role in household appliances, design aspects are increasingly more important."
Mr. Yamazaki adds that in addition to Korea, Rinnai has set its sights on the Chinese market, with hopes to secure a 5-percent market share within the coming years.

First Impressions of Indonesia
29 November 2012
Categories : Culture and Heritage - Travelings
As traveling two weeks in Indonesia, I got to see the major attractions around the country. While I was visiting nine different islands, these were the first impressions I got. Islands Officially, there are 17,000 islands Indonesia. 8,844 of them have been named by the government of Indonesia, including major islands: Kalimantan (Borneo), Sumatra, Java and so on, and 922 of them are permanently inhabited. It's not hard to guess Indonesia is a big...

Looking into a Volcano at Mt Bromo
29 November 2012
Categories : Hiking, Trekking, and Eco
Did you ever wonder what it would be like to look inside of a volcano? At Indonesia's Mt. Bromo, you can see for yourself. The journey begins in Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, in the far east of Java. We arrived at our hotel the day before and rested up for a middle-of-the-night departure for sunrise. After sunrise we took jeeps across the sand sea and hiked up Mt. Bromo. Here, some chose to ride horses up the volcano side. The hike wasn't...

Joy in the Stillness at Borobudur
29 November 2012
Categories : Culture and Heritage
It seemed that around every corner in Indonesia was something new to discover. We had long bus rides and frequent plane rides between islands that allowed me to ponder the newness of every experience. Every time I really did, I felt I might need to pinch myself. There are all kinds of love in this world and in the absence of the kind of romantic love that fuels so many lives, my great affair is learning and collecting new experiences. Borobudur was a moment in which...

Categories : Adventure - Travelings
When I learnt that we had to overnight on a river boat in the jungle of Central Kalimantan, eight persons sharing one bathroom, that put up a bit of struggle in me. Voice inside: You are there to see the endangered orangutans that are only found in Borneo and Sumatra! Yeah, I saw those in the zoo - our beloved Ah Meng and her clan. And the rainforest is so hot, very humid and those blood sucking flies love me. Call me shallow. I survived (like a big deal) two days...

Mt Bromo a must see item when visiting Indonesia
27 November 2012
Categories : Hiking, Trekking, and Eco
Waking up for 3:30am for a tour to do a "must see, must do" item in Indonesia, is sometimes a sacrifice that you need to make. Thankfully I didn't need to shower before hand I could literally roll out of bed at 3:15am, throw some clothes on and meet the group. Before heading to the small town of Wonotoro, I was told to bring warm clothes and that it would be very chilly there. Men walked around selling toques and mittens, the Indonesians...

The pressure is on. You are charged with making an important decision about an issue that affects millions of people. Worse, you're really not well versed on all its complex potential ramifications. Wouldn't it be great to have a helping hand, someone knowledgeable to tell you what you need to know in 15 minutes and leave you with a clear one-pager to remind you about everything you discussed?
According to the Natural Marketing Institute (NMI), over 400 registered green logos exist worldwide (1). Most consumers say they are more likely to buy products with green seals, says NMI (1), and there are good reasons why. Certifications help a product standout in saturated markets.
With the market now saturated with interesting and appealing natural products, it is imperative to stand out. You could try to have sales reps standing in every aisle of every natural store to highlight the benefits of your product. Or, you could let your packaging do the talking for you. A well-designed, professional look is more than a pretty picture; done well, packaging will put your best foot forward, showing customers why they should care about your story and your unique products.
Positive contract manufacturing relationships are all about meeting and exceeding expectations. Seeing eye to eye, being on the same wavelength, having one's clocks synchronized…these are crucial factors for the success of any partnership between manufacturer and finished product marketer. "It is never a good practice to over-promise and under-perform," notes Richard Kaufman, executive vice president of Paragon Laboratories, Torrance, CA.
Will 2013 be a good year for the natural products industry? And, how will 2012's hottest issues like GMOs affect the new year from a business standpoint? In this feature, WholeFoods goes right to the source via interviews with raw materials suppliers to bring you insight into key areas we should have our eyes on in the coming year. These companies are often at the forefront of innovation, often playing with new ingredients and combinations years before we see them on the market. Their knowledge of industry trends is something from which we can all benefit.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the federal regulatory agency with the primary responsibility of enforcing the statutes and regulations governing the manufacturing, packing, labeling and distribution of products in the food, beverage, dietary supplement and cosmetics industries. Whether it is conducting inspections to ascertain compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMPs), reviewing labeling or striving to ensure the safety of products, the FDA looms as an ever-present monitor of companies in the aforementioned industries.
They understand more than ever what their nutrition needs are, yet they can't always easily find the time, or spend the money, to bridge the gap from knowing what's healthy to practicing it in their diet. Because of these factors, consumers keep turning to food products with healthy ingredients added in as bonus nutrition. Certain functional ingredients are especially popular already, while others are climbing the ladder of consumer awareness.
With all of the effort and investment that goes into developing a product, it may be easy to become excited at the end of the process and say, "Let's throw it on the shelf, already!" But for any product or product line, from dietary supplements to cosmetics, manufacturers would do well not to overlook the crucial last step in bringing something to market: designing the product's home, its packaging.
The mark of a first-rate contract manufacturer is a unique flexibility in fulfilling client needs. Beyond the basic capability to churn out products from an assembly line, true manufacturing partners are well-positioned to make a product run work for you.
In July, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made public a proposed guidance for new dietary ingredients (NDIs) that are included in supplements. Though the document is aimed at finished product manufacturers, it could have a profound affect on raw materials suppliers.

BASHING THE Atlantic Coast Conference, in football and otherwise, has become another sport in college athletics. Like taunting an opponent, it is not enough to show your superiority on the playing field. It seems part of athletics competition these days is to kick an opponent when he is down.
So it is with the ACC, which has not shown well in football over the past decade or so. In fact, the ACC has been pretty much anemic when it comes to competing for national championships and going head-to-head against the big-boy conferences.
It is difficult to defend a conference whose football champion loses the Orange Bowl one year while surrendering 70 points, then stands a chance of losing the same bowl game this season against Northern Illinois.
But the harangues against the ACC lose a lot of their validity when they compare the leagues football prowess against the SEC and when they torch the entire league in all sports as being pathetic and second-rate.
On the first charge, what conference does stack up in football to what amounts to a mini-version of the NFL? When SEC coaches begin comparing league opponents to NFL teams, you know the conference is playing at a different level from the rest of the competition.
The SEC will win its seventh consecutive national football title when Alabama steamrolls Notre Dame in the upcoming BCS National Championship Game. The SEC annually has more players selected in the NFL Draft and more players on NFL rosters than other leagues.
The SEC plays in the biggest stadiums, provides its athletes with the best facilities and pays its coaches the highest salaries. The result is a league that has six teams among the top 10 in the final BCS rankings.
No one would argue against the SEC as the best football league in the country, by a long shot. So why pick on the ACC because it does not compete at the same level? Neither does the Big Ten, or the Big 12, or the Pac-12, or the Big East.
Sure, the gap between the SEC and the ACC was shown most vividly on the final weekend of the regular season when the SEC won four head-to-head matchups, all by double figures. It is a gap not unique to the SEC and ACC. My guess is the same results would have come from four head-to-head encounters between the SEC and any other conference.
At most SEC schools, the football fan base boasts that there are three seasons in a sport that is followed year-round: the regular season, the recruiting season and spring practice. It is a message that clearly comes from the top, where administrative decisions almost exclusively are made based on what is good or bad for football.
That is fine, but what is wrong with another conference making decisions in the best interest of another sport, and wanting to build a reputation for excellence in another sport besides football?
Even though it was formed as a football conference in the mid-1950s, the ACC long has been known as a basketball league. The Dixie Classic tournament in the 50s and the ACC tournament to determine a league champion helped make the ACC synonymous with big-time basketball and the envy of all other conferences, much like the SEC is in football today.
Not much over the past half-century has altered the ACCs image as a basketball power, save for a couple of misfires in the never-ending realignment game that has overtaken college athletics. The leagues attempt to brand itself as more than a basketball conference worked with the addition of Florida State in 1991. It failed miserably with the additions of Miami, Virginia Tech and Boston College in the early 2000s.
Those latter additions added some luster to the leagues football reputation, but not much. At the same time, they damaged the ACCs basketball appeal, and the leagues old guard, mostly powerful Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, made it known they were not happy.
So, while other conferences continue to sell out everything for football in realignment, the ACC appears to be going in another direction. The league at least considered what more additions mean to its basketball persona.
The recent additions of Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Louisville and Notre Dame --- for all sports except football --- far outweigh the loss of charter-member Maryland to the Big Ten. Those four newcomers can only enhance the ACCs claim as the best basketball league in the country.
There also is the chance those schools will make the ACC a better football league, one that might field a team or two that occasionally challenges the SEC for a national championship.
If not, at least the ACC can fall back on its favorite sport, and what is wrong with that?

Warning: Hot glue? It gets hot. If your kid is making one of these, adult supervision would be a good thing.
Yet Another Warning: Rockets are pointy. Don't be an idiot and point these at people's faces.
Step 1: Materials
- 1 sheet of 8.5x11in paper
- Masking or Painter's tape (use colored tape for colored rockets)
- Scissors
- A ball point pen like the one pictured or a large drinking straw (for the launcher)
- A hot glue gun and glue stick (if you don't have this, you can use regular white glue, but you'll be waiting a couple of DAYS for the glue to fully dry)

Specificity / Sensitivity
PDGF Receptor α (D13C6) XP® Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of PDGF receptor α protein.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a recombinant protein corresponding to the PDGF receptor α extracellular domain.
This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is conjugated to phycoerythrin (PE) and tested in-house for direct flow cytometry analysis in human cells. The antibody is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated PDGF Receptor α (D13C6) XP® Rabbit mAb #5241.
Platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) family proteins exist as several disulphide-bonded, dimeric isoforms (PDGF AA, PDGF AB, PDGF BB, PDGF CC, and PDGF DD) that bind in a specific pattern to two closely related receptor tyrosine kinases, PDGF receptor α (PDGFRα) and PDGF receptor β (PDGFRβ). PDGFRα and PDGFRβ share 75% to 85% sequence homology between their two intracellular kinase domains, while the kinase insert and carboxy-terminal tail regions display a lower level (27% to 28%) of homology (1). PDGFRα homodimers bind all PDGF isoforms except those containing PDGF D. PDGFRβ homodimers bind PDGF BB and DD isoforms, as well as the PDGF AB heterodimer. The heteromeric PDGF receptor α/β binds PDGF B, C, and D homodimers, as well as the PDGF AB heterodimer (2). PDGFRα and PDGFRβ can each form heterodimers with EGFR, which is also activated by PDGF (3). Various cells differ in the total number of receptors present and in the receptor subunit composition, which may account for responsive differences among cell types to PDGF binding (4). Ligand binding induces receptor dimerization and autophosphorylation, followed by binding and activation of cytoplasmic SH2 domain-containing signal transduction molecules, such as GRB2, Src, GAP, PI3 kinase, PLCγ, and NCK. A number of different signaling pathways are initiated by activated PDGF receptors and lead to control of cell growth, actin reorganization, migration, and differentiation (5). Tyr751 in the kinase-insert region of PDGFRβ is the docking site for PI3 kinase (6). Phosphorylated pentapeptides derived from Tyr751 of PDGFRβ (pTyr751-Val-Pro-Met-Leu) inhibit the association of the carboxy-terminal SH2 domain of the p85 subunit of PI3 kinase with PDGFRβ (7). Tyr740 is also required for PDGFRβ-mediated PI3 kinase activation (8).

The Broncos began the second half the same way it began the game – a Trindon Holliday return touchdown.
The 5-foot-5 return man caught it 4 yards deep in the end zone and took it the length of the field for a 104-yard kick return touchdown. The score put Denver up 28-21 13 seconds into the half.
Holliday is now the first player in NFL postseason history to return a kickoff and punt for a touchdown in the same game. His two returns of kick return (104) and punt return (90) are each the longest in postseason history. It is Holliday's first career postseason game. His 158 kick return yards on the day rank seventh in Broncos postseason career history and are the most ever in a single game.
Today is Special Teams Coach Jeff Rodgers' birthday.

UPnP prayers answered
The Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol is an improvement over the earlier "plug-and-pray" standard, which is a different technology.
