Chase Elliott Finishes Fifth In Kyle Busch's Rowdy's Revenge 251
BERLIN, MI - Chase Elliott continued his streak of strong runs by charging through the field from the 18th starting position to finish fifth in the rain-delayed second annual Rowdy's Revenge 251 at Berlin Raceway Wednesday night.
Kyle "Rowdy" Busch won for the second straight year. Elliott finished second last year behind Busch, but this year had to dodge several wrecks and battle against some of the best short trackers in America while coming up from his deep starting position.
"I thought we had a good run, but weren't where we needed to be," Elliott said.
The young son of 1988 Cup Champion Bill Elliott now heads to the Gulf Coast, where he'll race at Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola on Friday, June 24 and at Mobile International Raceway on Saturday, June 25.

Mako M5 Sr. - Grip
Hockey Stick
It's a game of split seconds to catch the puck and put it on net. Completely redesigned to improve weight and balance combined with the performance and feel of the segmented core, the new Mako allows players to make quick moves and put pucks on net.
- Micro-bladder blade process
- Multi-rib blade construction
Rated 4.1 out of 5 by 12
Rated 1 out of 5 by eric18 this stick is terrible
feels like the blade is to heavy, I started hockey with Easton's and now have moved to Bauer, the MAKO line of sticks in a disappointment
May 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Schultz311 Great Feel
This stick has a great feel to it. It feels more solid than other sticks and it seems the puck explodes of off it. It does weigh a little more than other sticks but I feel like that is a positive with the overall feel. Passes don't explode of the stick.

Sweet sick .
Fast release.
The blade super strong.

Rated 4 out of 5 by :) Mako M5 Sr. Grip
* 9/10 performance. Performance matches other top level sticks.
* Better durability than top mako and ccm RBZ.
* Paint chips off too easy.
* Blade is nice and stiff.
* Improves your shot in all areas.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Hockeystud7 A great replacement for the Synergy ST
I've gone through a number of Easton sticks (SE, 75S) trying to replace my old standard of the ST and the Mako M5 Grip has finally filled that void.
My complaint with the other Easton sticks has been there durability, particularly for me as a defenseman where my stick takes more a beating from poke checks, clearing players in front of the net and going into the corners. The Mako M5 has held up very well so far.
The stick has a little stiffer feel than the RS line but after you get used to it, it performs at the same high level.
This is a durable high performing stick that can take a beating and still deliver hard accurate shots. I would highly recommend it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by dfagan261 Mako M5 Review
I was looking for a replacement for the Easton ST, and am very pleased with the M5. I am looking for a little more durability in a stick, without giving up too much performance. This stick was the ticket. A few friends of mine have tried it, and ended up buying one for themselves.
March 6, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by mattvs2 Not Much Feel
This stick handles like a log. I used EQ50's in the past. After my EQ broke last year, Easton sent me the M5 as a warranty replacement. This was disappointing; as the M5 is not the top of its line like the EQ was and does not handle or release anything like the EQ. I've tried this stick over and over and cannot get it to perform.

Fauxto is a little Flashy
A few weeks ago we played with CanvasPaint, a version of Microsoft Paint that runs in your Web browser. Along similar lines is Fauxto, a browser-based design program reminiscent of early versions of Adobe Photoshop. Fauxto has the usual drawing tools: a pencil, a pen, a paintbrush, and an eraser. Users can create their own drawings or perform rudimentary photo enhancements, but essentially it's a doodling tool that proves these kinds of programs can work in Flash.
What sets Fauxto apart from CanvasPaint is its use of layers and brushes. For those unfamiliar with working with layers, each layer … Read more

Folding Bike Fits Within Circumference Of Tire
24-year old inventor Dominic Hargreaves has designed and built a bike that folds up to the size of the bike's wheels. Not as impressive as a bike that folds up into its own squeaky horn, BUT NOT EVERYONE IS THIS GENIUS.
"I couldn't find a folding bicycle I liked...I wanted something that could take a bit of punishment and that you could have fun with. So I made one myself."Mr Hargreaves has been in contact with various manufacturers and hopes to get the bike into production soon.
Cool. I've never ridden a folding bike before because I value my safety, but I have ridden a bike with no seat before. It was good times. For both of us.

Next-Generation iPads Due in April, iPhone 5S in August?
Following today's research report from KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggesting that the iPhone 5S could launch in July with a fingerprint sensor, Rene Ritchie at iMore confirms that the iPhone 5S will be unveiled during the summer, but targets an August release date. Apple has previously launched phones in June through October, with the iPhone 4S released in October and the iPhone 5 released in September. According to Ritchie, the upcoming iPhone 5S will be similar to the iPhone 4S, improving the internals of the phone while leaving the outer casing untouched. Quote:
iMore has been spot on with recent Apple releases, reporting the Lightning connector several months before it was released and predicting both the iPad mini launch date and the announcement date of the iPhone 5. Article Link: Next-Generation iPads Due in April, iPhone 5S in August? |

Quality Control and Environmental Concerns
What really concerns me with Apple's potential accelerated product launches (on certain product lines) is the impact all these new models are having on the environment and that of the market. It's going to lead to a lot of fragmentation as clearly many people cannot afford just to go out and buy a brand new Apple device every single time a new generation is released.
And can a company really maintain a realistic quality control on these products at the same time? Apple needs to slow down a bit before it starts getting messy. |

Ain't gonna happen..... It would mean that the iPad 5th gen and iPad mini 2 would have to be in mass production NOW, and we have have had little evidence of actual production.
This is just someones predictions based on a '6 month time period', not evidence of actual hardware availability.

I see the new iPad 5 as a 'slim down and make lighter' update. iPad 4 has the retina, the speed (1800 on benchmarks vs 800 for the ipad 3) and the new connector. As such I'm happy I won't feel too much buyers remorse on my 128GB iPad 4 I got 3 days ago.
The iPad Mini it is replacing on the other hand has probably the look the iPad line is going to take going forward but internally is a full redesign, screen, in turn processor and then battery life.

If they release the iPad 5, will there be a "normally priced" iPad 2 still around, or will that become the iPad 3? If so, for the first time, you could get a retina iPad for the original iPad price. I think the new iPads are currently just too expensive.
I hope the iPad Mini with retina (whenever that will be) will remain the same price.

I've never seen such a bunch of crybabies that just can't stand the fact that Apple isn't making a plastic oversize crap plastic Nexus phone.. If that's what you prefer, buy it! Don't be annoyed that Apple has a different vision. Obviously, none of you complainers comprehend that. Oh, and go hang out at the Android fan sites, if there are any. |

And I think you don't understand the meaning of "fragmentation". For Android device, people complain rightfully about fragmentation because there are plenty of devices with ancient Android versions, plenty of devices with similar Android versions behaving differently, and each device has a different screen resolution. Apple has kept all these differences hidden from developers. iPad 1 apps run fine on an iPad Mini. |

Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.

Betar's foes

As many as a few hundred xenophobic Betar Jerusalem soccer fans do not seem to get it. Even after this group of sectarian rabble-rousers was publicly lambasted by a wide range of public figures from President Shimon Peres to Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin, former prime minister Ehud Olmert and Israel Football Association officials; even after they were fined, arrested and distanced from future Betar games till the end of the season by the police and the courts; these hooligans – who by no means represent the majority of Betar fans – continue not only to cling stubbornly to ingrained prejudices, they have no shame acting on these distorted worldviews.
On Friday, dozens threw rocks, accosted a guard and attacked Betar chairman Itzik Kornfein, attempting to force their way into his car. Army Radio reported that some fans spat on the two newly recruited Chechen soccer players, Dzhabrail Kadiyev and Zaur Sadayev.
It is Kadiyev and Sadayev – or more precisely their Muslim faith – that has so incensed some of Betar's volatile fans.
"Betar pure forever" was the way one Betar fan's banner put it last week during a game with Bnei Yehuda.
More needs to be done to bring those responsible for the violence to justice. Kornfein called on the state prosecutor, Police commissioner Insp.-Gen. Yohanan Danino and Culture and Sport Minister Limor Livnat to do more to maintain law and order.
We second the call.
But while those Betar fans who lashed out violently in the name of sectarian prejudices should be punished, we should also be careful not to lose a sense of proportion.
That's precisely what Avraham Burg, chairman of Molad-The Center for Renewal of Democracy and German history Prof. Moshe Zimmerman did last week when they compared Betar's xenophobia to Nazism.
The two made the comparisons during a screening of
Theresienstadt League,
a documentary using Nazi film footage of a soccer game played in the Theresienstadt concentration camp in September 1944 between the Jewish prisoners and Nazi soldiers.
The game, held within walking distance of a crematorium working at the peak of productivity, was filmed by the Nazis as part of a propaganda film entitled
Theresienstadt: A Jewish Community.
The propaganda film's aim was to allay international suspicion of mass exterminations by portraying the concentration camp as a merry Jewish colony. Within weeks of the film being shot, most of the Jews who played in the soccer game were dead.
Besides soccer, it is difficult to fathom what connection Burg and Zimmerman imagined existed between the behavior of Betar fans and Theresienstadt. The two managed to belittle the memory of the Holocaust and confound understanding of Betar bigotry in one fell swoop.
A more fitting parallel can be drawn with the sometimes violent sectarian rivalry that continues to exist between some European soccer teams such as, for instance, Glasgow's Protestant Rangers and Catholic Celtics. In the summer of 2011 tensions flared after the Rangers dared to hire Aaron McGregor, a Catholic player.
The best remedy for Betar's bullying is to hire additional Muslim – and Arab – players while continuing to punish violent protesters. Eventually, Betar fans will either learn to express their bigoted opinions civilly or cease to be loyal to Betar, which would be no big loss.
Betar's owner, Arkadi Gaydamak, should be praised for his brave decision to hire the two Muslim Chechens and for standing behind his decision. It is imperative that the two players receive full support from the Betar club, fellow players and the majority of Betar fans who are unprejudiced.
Kadiyev and Sadayev must not meet the same fate as Ibrahim Nadala who in 2004 left Betar after enduring verbal harassment by fans for being Muslim.
In the final analysis bigotry is not only ugly, it is selfdefeating.
Imagine the Brooklyn Dodgers without Jackie Robinson? Who knows how many talented Muslim and Arab players could have been recruited but weren't due to mindless prejudice? They may claim to be fans, but the bigots of Betar are acting more like foes.

By Ellis Starr – National Racing Analyst for Equibase
The Grade 1, $1 million William Hill Haskell Invitational Stakes brings together a field of seven, led by Preakness winner Oxbow, last seen finishing second in the Belmont Stakes. Verrazano is one of many last out stakes winners who could threaten the possible favorite as he enters the Haskell off a powerful nine-length romp in the Grade 3 Pegasus Stakes at Monmouth, giving him familiarity with the track that Oxbow lacks. Power Broker enters the race off a victory in the Easy Goer Stakes and may have what it takes to win, while Micromanagefinished second in the Easy Goer before a smart win on the track in the Long Branch Stakes just three weeks ago. Kentucky Derby runner-up Golden Soul did not do much when running the Belmont and finishing ninth but should be running strongly in the last quarter of a mile, while Vyjack won both the Grade 3 Gotham Stakes and Grade 2 Jerome Stakes earlier this year and attempts to rebound from an eighth-place finish in the Belmont. Pick of the Litter rounds out the field, last seen finishing third in the Grade 3 Coolmore Lexington Stakes in April and perhaps a bit overmatched as he is still eligible for the first allowance level.
Oxbow has earned each of his three career wins leading from start to finish, and although he did finish second in the Belmont Stakes he pretty much ran in that position from start to finish, another sign of being a "need-the-lead" type. That being said, both Power Broker and Verrazano have shown the ability to sit behind the pacesetter and, if jockey Gary Stevens sends Oxbow from the start, he could control things on the front end just the way he did when upsetting the field in the Preakness. In the Preakness, Oxbow equaled a career best with a 110 Equibase Speed Figure, the same figure he earned when beaten a neck on the wire in the Rebel Stakes in March. Those 110 figure efforts are the best by any horse in this field, at any time, and so Oxbow appears the one to beat in this year's Haskell.
Micromanage is trained by North American leading trainer Todd Pletcher, as is Verrazano, with Micromanage likely to go to post at slightly higher odds. Micromanage has improved in three straight races since coming back from six months off in May, culminating with a career-best 105 Equibase Speed Figure when victorious in the Long Branch Stakes three weeks ago at Monmouth. Jockey Joe Bravo is a perfect 2-for-2 aboard Micromanage and rides him in the Haskell. With a powerful half-mile workout coming into the race that was the best of 101 at the distance on the day at Saratoga ( in company with Verrazano), Micromanage may be capable of taking another step forward and winning a graded stakes for the first time in his career.
Verrazano won the first four starts of his career then finished a dismal 14th in the Kentucky Derby. Personally, I thought he wasn't fast enough to compete in the Derby, but two months after that poor effort Verrazano won the Pegasus Stakes by a wide, nine-length margin and with a career-best 109 Equibase Speed Figure. Having also put in that sharp four-furlong drill with Micromanage on July 22 and with jockey John Velazquez riding in the Haskell as he has in all six of Verrazano's wins to date, this colt would be no surprise if powering home just as he did last month on this track.

No upcoming dates were found for this opera.
The Pearl Fishers first premiered on September 30, 1863 at Theatre-Lyrique, Paris.
Performed in French with English Titles.
The Pearl Fishers is set on the island of Ceylon, which is modern day Sri Lanka, in ancient times.
Act I
The fishermen are preparing for the season of diving for pearls. The village has elected Zurga as their King. He welcomes Nadir, a friend whom he has not seen in many years. Long ago, the friends vowed to renounce their love for the same girl in order to keep their friendship. In an exquisite duet, they reminisce about their youth and the beautiful girl they gave up as they renew their pledge of eternal friendship. The priests of the temple of Brahma arrive. They are bringing their new priestess who has been chosen for her purity and virtue. She is veiled, hiding the fact that she is Leila - the very same girl Nadir and Zurga renounced many years ago. Zurga charges the priestess to remain isolated on the cliff, without friends, without lovers, and to sing that the gods may be placated, ensuring the safety of the fishermen. He tells her that if she breaks this bond of faith she will be cursed and put to death. Leila hears Nadir's voice and immediately recognizes it. She still loves him and knowing that he is in the village brings fear to her heart. She composes herself and pledges to fulfill her vows. The villagers raise their voices in a magnificent prayer to Brahma. Nadir has also recognized Leila as being the lost love he has so often dreamed about. Nadir hears Leila singing the evening prayer and he declares his renewed love for her, which she returns. It is late in the evening. The pearl fishermen have safely returned with their catch and the High Priest, Nourabad, thanks Leila for her devotion. She reassures Nourabad of her fidelity by telling him that, when she was a girl, she saved a man who was fleeing brutal pursuers by hiding him in her home. When they came to find him, she bravely told them nothing and the man was saved. To thank her, this unknown fugitive gave her a necklace that she never removed. Nourabad tells her to rest without fear - that the path to the temple is secured - and the temple guards will keep her safe. Left alone, Leila's thoughts turn to Nadir. She knows he is near, hiding in the forest, and waiting to come to her. She sings of her days gone by and of her love.
Act II
Nadir, having heard her song, replies from afar with a serenade of love. Nadir climbs over the temple walls to be with Leila. She resists him, saying that death awaits him if he stays. He tells her that his soul has been enslaved by her since the first day he saw her and her resolve weakens. They agree to meet each night in the shadows. Nourabad discovers Nadir leaving the temple and, calling to the people, he declares that the temple has been profaned. The people cry for the lovers to be put to death, and they are about to carry out their threat when Zurga enters. Stopping them, he declares that he alone will judge their fate. Zurga is about to let Leila and Nadir go when Nourabad commands her to lift her veil and reveal her identify to everyone. When she does, Zurga recognizes Leila as the girl he renounced for his friendship with Nadir, and in his jealous fury he condemns them both to death as the people sing for mercy to Brahma.
A storm breaks overhead, a portent of the sea's wrath now that the priestess Leila has been disgraced. Zurga is alone in his tent. He laments that he has condemned his friend, Nadir, to die at dawn. Leila, accompanied by guards, enters. She pleads with Zurga for Nadir's life. Unsuccessful in securing Nadir's release and resigned to her fate, Leila asks him to give her necklace to her mother once she is dead. Zurga recognizes it as the one he gave to the child who saved his life so long ago. To repay this debt, he resolves to help the lovers. To release Nadir and Leila, Zurga sets the village on fire to distract the fishermen and, despite the attempts of Nourabad, the lovers escape. Zurga is left to accept the consequences of his sacrifice as the final curtain falls on Bizet's The Pearl Fishers.
Georges Bizet was born in Paris into a musical family: his father was an amateur singer and his mother was sister to Francois Delsarte, a renowned vocal teacher. His parents fostered his interest in music, and when he had absorbed everything they could teach him, they enrolled him at the Paris Conservatory. Bizet was barely ten years old, the minimum age required for entry into the conservatory. There he studied composition with Fromental Halevy, whose daughter Genevieve he later married. He also developed into a virtuoso pianist, noted for his technical proficiency and full-score reading (playing the piano from an orchestral score).
In 1857 Bizet won the Prix de Rome scholarship for study in Italy; his first opera dates from the same year, the one-act Le Docteur Miracle. Besides composing, he often worked as a rehearsal pianist and orchestrator, which gave him an uncommon familiarity with the works of the Parisian theater. Today Bizet is remembered primarily as an opera composer, although he did not win fame as such during his short lifetime. In his thirty-seven years he wrote six operas that survive in a performable format, as well as nearly thirty unpublished or incomplete works.
The first of Bizet's operas to reach the professional stage was Les pecheurs de perles (The Pearl Fishers), which lasted eighteen performances after its premiere at the Theatre Lyrique in 1863. Of the various opera projects on which he worked, two more were staged-La Jolie Fille de Perth in 1867, Djamileh in 1872-without establishing him as a major talent. Though discouraged by the indifference of theater managers and the public, he continued to pursue his great love. With Carmen, at the Opera Comique in 1875, the tide of fortune started to turn, but Bizet died that year, thinking he had written another failure. The work caught on soon afterward and, together with the incidental music for Daudet's play L'Arlesienne, has carried Bizet's reputation.
Bizet seemed to have trouble finding direction as a composer; he frequently began operatic projects but then abandoned them before completion. He often borrowed from these, incorporating their material into later projects. Bizet paid more attention to the meaning and emotional content of the words than to the rhythm and metrical patterns (called "word painting", because the composer uses music to "paint" or illustrate the word's meaning). His choice of subject matter and compositional style presaged the development of verismo opera.
Carmen was drawn from a popular short novel of the same title by Prosper Merimee (1845), inspired in turn by the writing of George Henry Borrow, an Englishman who had lived among the Spanish Gypsies. Bizet's libretto, conventionalized for the conservative, bourgeois audience of the Op�ra Comique, was the work of Ludovic Halevy (a cousin of his wife's) and Henri Meilhac. Since the opera-comique genre called for spoken dialogue, sung recitatives had to be added if the work was ever to be performed at a grand-opera theater. This was done after Bizet's death by his friend Ernest Guiraoud. The work's initially poor reception is attributable to the novelty and daring of presenting "low life" in this genre and allowing the heroine to die instead of contriving the customary happy ending. Gypsies smoking cigarettes onstage was another risque element, as was the "immoral" character of the heroine. Carmen survived to become one of the most frequently performed operas everywhere in the world. Several of its melodies are familiar to thousands who have never seen or heard an opera.
No Language Barrier!
Enjoy the beauty of the original language and understand it all with English translations. The English text is projected on a screen above the stage for each opera. Easy to follow, and easy to understand every twist and turn of the plot!

10/21/2010 - As the midterm elections approach, there is every indication that voter turnout will be as high as in 2006, but unlike four years ago, Republicans – not Democrats – are now more engaged and enthusiastic about casting a ballot. The prospects for a GOP turnout advantage on Election Day are almost as favorable in the new Pew Research Center survey as they have been in all previous polls throughout the campaign.The new survey does show some signs of the Democrats awakening. A growing number of Democratic voters say they have given a lot of thought to the coming elections and more say they have been closely following campaign news. However, Republican engagement continues at record levels, dwarfing even improved Democratic showings on these indicators.Consequently, a considerably greater percentage of Republicans than Democrats still fall into the likely voter category. Moreover, the new survey shows that Democrats have lost ground among all voters: Currently, 46% of registered voters favor the Republican candidate in their district or lean Republican, while 42% favor the Democratic candidate or lean Democratic. In early September, 44% backed the Republican while 47% supported the Democratic candidate.Read the full report Democrats Stirring But Are No Match for Energized Republicans on the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press' Web site.

I think they missed a lot. It should be far denser than that, given those five conditions.
My cousin, who lives in Nevada, was in town recently with his girlfriend. He had announced that his girlfriend was pregnant and that they had no intention of getting married. Naturally, when he was in town, there was huge family get together, during which, my grandparents felt the need to pressure my cousin and his girlfriend to get married.
I asked them, "What's the big deal about a child being born out fo wedlock?" My grandmother said, "I believe it's undignified for the child." To which I responded, "Well that's a bit hypocritical on your part, don't you think? I mean, you worship a guy who was born out of wedlock."
This made them very angry. I thought they knew. Apparently, I let some big cat out of the bag.

3T Ergonova Pro Alloy Handlebar $119.95
Wrap some oh-so-comfortable cork tape around the 3T Ergonova Pro Alloy Handlebar, pause to admire, and hit the road for an all-day adventure.
While we don't hide our preference for shallow, non-anatomic bars, we understand that some folks don't agree. If you're keen on "ergo" bars, then you will want to give the 3T Ergonova Pro Alloy Handlebar a good look. 3T has lavished the same loving attention to this bar as it has with the more traditionally shaped Rotundo.
With the Ergonova Pro Alloy Handlebar, 3T acknowledges that there are many riders out there who have Cervelo Test Team taste but perhaps not the Cervelo Test Team budget. The Pro level offers the ideal balance between top-flight performance and feet-on-ground price. And beyond the price issue, you get the supreme reliability of its AL7075 alloy construction, which keeps the weight reasonable at 326g while offering all the piece of mind that goes hand in hand with alloy bars.
The Ergonova Pro shares the same shape and drop characteristics that you'll find in the Team and LTD versions. This means that the top of the bars are egg or tear-drop shaped which is intended to give your hands a flatter, more comfortable surface to hold onto. The designers have also seemed to anticipate some of our objections to "ergo" bars by keeping an eye on the needs of the smaller person. Not only do these bars come in an array of widths ranging from 38 to 44cm (c-c), but the reach is quite moderate at 77mm and the drop is a comfortable 123mm. Whereas a bar like the FSA Wing Pro has a 145mm drop making it very difficult for a rider with small hands to reach the brake levers while in the drops, the 123mm Ergonova drop is much closer to what one would find in a shallow, classic shape bar, giving greater ease of access to the levers and other controls. Available in sizes 38cm-44cm (center-center) in 2cm increments. Compatible with 31.8mm stems only.

THE GOOD: Love the comfortable egg shaped top of the bars. All positions on the bar are very nice. Cable routing is also good.
NOT SO GOOD: A heavy rain washed off the bar's white graphics. They just peeled right off.
BOTTOM LINE: Yeah, I miss my graphics but I'm very happy with these.

where are the handlebar widths measured, hood to hood c-c?, or drop bar c-c? is the top width the same as the bottom?

Member since
Handlebar widths are measured at the bottom/drops. The drops on this bar flare 6* so the width at the hoods is ~1cm narrower.

Earthwatch participants collected critical data to help ensure the survival of Kenya's black rhinos.
How would you prefer us to contact you?
By EmailBy Phone
Working with the Kenya Wildlife Service, Earthwatch volunteers participated in research to ensure the welfare of rhinos and other wildlife in protected sanctuaries.
In 1970, 20,000 black rhinos roamed Kenya. Today, as a result of extensive poaching, there are only about 540 left. The surviving rhinos are concentrated in sanctuaries where they are protected from poachers, and populations in these sanctuaries are increasing. In the future, rhinos from these critically important breeding populations may be reintroduced to their former homes.
Once the rhinos were under protection, scientists noted that some groups bred at a much higher rate than others. The Saving Kenya's Black Rhinos project researched the causes of this and explored the habitat requirements and dynamics of the black rhino population at the Ol Pejeta refuge. The project also focused on the interactions between rhinos and other animals in the area, including elephants, giraffes, and other herbivores. The findings helped to determine how many rhinos and other large animals can coexist within a habitat before the habitat becomes damaged, resulting in lower breeding rates.
Earthwatch volunteers not only made a significant contribution to the welfare of black rhinos, they also enjoyed the opportunity to see the "big five" - elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, and leopard - on a daily basis during afternoon and night game drives.
Earthwatch researchers gathered data to help make accurate predictions regarding damage to trees, available food, and other concerns.
Protecting wildlife is just a start; managing reserves ensures the welfare of species in the long term.
What will happen to Kenya's wildlife reserves as populations of rhinos and other animals grow? Earthwatch researchers gathered data to help make accurate predictions regarding issues such as damage to trees, available food, and other concerns. Park managers use these predictions to determine how many animals can live in a given area, with the overall aim of maximizing black rhino breeding potential.
To determine just how many animals can sustainability inhabit an enclosed reserve, researchers developed a GIS map of the reserve and surrounding ranches, showing the amount of vegetation in the area over time. If rhinos and elephants were changing the amount of vegetation, the maps would clearly indicate the amount and type of change.
Earthwatch investigators also looked at questions such as: How have rhinos adjusted their home ranges since the reserve expanded? Have rhinos and other animals found enough to eat? Are elephants and rhinos competing for space? Are giraffes competing for food with rhinos or elephants?
This project investigated habitat issues pertinent to conservation of black rhinos in Kenya.
In addition to conducting research on rhinos and elephants, the scientists and volunteers investigated the declining population of Jackson's hartebeest. The findings suggested that the hartebeest might be declining because of predators in the area.
The Ol Pejeta Conservancy was created in 1989 as a sanctuary for black rhinos relocated from other sites in Kenya. Now, with 80 black rhinos, it has one of the highest populations in Kenya. Located about 160 miles (260 kilometers) north of Nairobi, it is on a loop that tour operators follow when taking visitors around Kenya.
The Laikipia Plateau is a lava plateau used almost entirely for cattle and sheep ranching. The vegetation in the reserve is a mosaic of grassland and woodlands, featuring acacia and euclea trees. Wildlife is plentiful and diverse, and includes zebras, warthogs, gazelles, and baboons, in addition to the big five.
This is a summary:
The volunteers were trained in the use of the compass, GPS unit, telescopic tree height measuring device, quadrant, clinometer, and laser rangefinder. They learned how to move quietly through the bush, navigate to a tree plot, find individual trees, measure tree heights, and record the data. They also learned to identify the 15 tree and shrub species that make up the main vegetation types of the reserve and ranch.
On the afternoon of Day 2, the volunteers went into the bush with two armed guards from the research center and the Earthwatch scientist or field team leader. They learned how to recognize birds and tracks and other signs of mammals. They were then assigned to groups to work in rotation on data collection, including elephant habitat use and distribution; measurement of tree growth and damage; monitoring of rhinos, Jackson's hartebeest, and other wildlife; and interactions between acacias and the ants that live on them.
On recreational days, the volunteers visited local communities to learn about their culture and the role conservation plays in funding development and improving livelihoods. The volunteers heard talks from livestock and community managers, and visited a local village, a school, a health center, and a cooperative of women who sell handmade yarn, rugs, and sweaters.
Volunteers were trained in field measurement techniques.
Research by Dr. Wahungu, supported by Earthwatch volunteers, enabled a model for rational management of the black rhino habitat in Ol Pejeta.
Why Work to Protect the Black Rhino? Says Dr. Wahungu: "I share the vision of the founder of this project: to save the endangered black rhino and its habitat. Volunteers' support of and participation in this project will go a long way towards the realization of this noble vision. Every dollar invested in this project is a priceless gift not only to this critically endangered species, but also to humanity globally."
Camp consists of several simple buildings erected on a large clearing in Budongo Forest. You'll stay in a single room that contains a bed, beddings, mosquito net, reading desk and a chair. All rooms are connected to solar electricity. There are three pit latrines on site which are shared by all. You'll have access to a warm shower, every evening after a long day's work. Water used at camp is harvested off the roofs or taken from the Sonso River so frugal use is necessary.
Evening meals are prepared by cooks who will prepare dishes including rice, chapati, potatoes, spaghetti, beans, beef, fish, ground nuts (peanuts), cow peas, assorted fresh vegetables and fruits, eggs. There are other local foods such as cassava, stewed bananas (locally known as matooke) and maize bread (locally known as ugali or posho). Breakfast will be western style.

Why Stop Smoking?David Spero April 20, 2011 I started to write a stop smoking column. But after researching nicotine, I'm thinking of taking the habit up myself. Yes, it kills more people than all the other bad habits I can think of put together. It makes diabetes far worse. But what a drug! Nicotine affects your brain much like cocaine does, but they don't arrest you for having it. Nicotine hits your brain within 10–20 seconds after a puff and immediately starts raising dopamine levels. Dopamine is our "reward chemical"; it tells you "you're doing the right thing, so feel good." A family of enzymes called MAOs (monoamine oxidase) breaks down dopamine and serotonin, another feel-good chemical. Nicotine is an MAO inhibitor; it blocks MAOs, so you have more dopamine and serotonin, so you feel better right away. And you don't need a prescription! Nicotine also promotes release of epinephrine (adrenaline) and endorphins, so you feel more energetic and more relaxed at the same time. (According to Wikipedia, small puffs/doses are more energizing, while higher doses/deeper puffs are more relaxing.) Nicotine makes you more alert and improves concentration. It relieves pain and anxiety. As a drug, it's even better than sugar, but unlike sugar, it suppresses appetite and raises metabolism, making it great for weight loss. So why would anyone want to stop smoking? So Why Stop? So smoking with diabetes is not just a double whammy. It's the whammy squared. I calculate smoking with diabetes is about equivalent to an A1C of 12, because smoking causes blood vessels to constrict and clamp down, while diabetes can gum them from the inside. There's not much room left for blood to flow. And that's not even mentioning the cancer and lung disease. Cigarettes are literally poisonous. According to About.com, cigarettes send "thousands of poisons, toxic metals and carcinogens coursing through our bloodstream with every puff we take." "Thousands?" Could that really be true? Yes it is. Cigarette smoke can contain benzene, ammonia, formaldehyde, pesticides, arsenic, cadmium, carbon monoxide, and cyanide, among many other poisons and carcinogens. When you read analyses of cigarette contents, you wonder how anyone can survive a pack at all! No wonder cigarettes are leading causes of cancer. Why It's Hard to Stop Nicotine in and of itself might not be addictive, but combined with other chemicals in tobacco, it definitely is. If you stop smoking, your dopamine and serotonin levels will drop. Because the brain gets used to the higher levels of feel-good chemicals, it feels extremely deprived when the levels go down. Stopping smoking will lead to withdrawal symptoms. According to Quit Smoking Support, "Withdrawal from nicotine…is characterized by symptoms that include headache, anxiety, nausea and a craving for more tobacco…Most withdrawal symptoms peak 48 hours after you quit and are completely gone in six months." But withdrawal symptoms aren't what keep most people smoking. Many smokers come through withdrawal repeatedly, only to resume smoking when times get tough. The number of times the average smoker quits before being able to stay off for good is five to seven. I asked my neighbor William how many times he had quit, and he said, "Thousands." Smoking just really helps many people get through the day. So How Do You Quit? Let us know what has worked and hasn't worked for you!

YEKATERINBURG, February 26 (RIA Novosti) – The authorities in the Russian city of Chelyabinsk are to erect a monument to commemorate the meteorite that hit the Urals region on February 15, wreaking havoc and injuring hundreds of people.
"The meteorite that flew over the Chelyabinsk Region, will be remembered by the residents for a long time. The citizens witnessed a unique global-scale event. That's why the authorities and proactive citizens were thinking about how to immortalize this interplanetary visit," the region's government said in a statement.
The authorities have decided to hold a competition for the best design proposal for the monument and also devise a logo for meteorite souvenirs, including calendars, booklets and magnets.
A panel of judges including a famous artist, sculptor or an architect, will choose the winner, "which will be put up for an online poll," the regional government said.
The flaming meteorite streaked across the sky and slammed into central Russia on February 15 with a massive boom that blew out windows and damaged thousands of buildings around Chelyabinsk, injuring more than 1,500 people in the area.
Meteorite Fragments Hit Russia
US space agency NASA estimates the meteorite was roughly 15 meters (50 feet) in diameter when it struck Earth's atmosphere, travelling several times the speed of sound, and exploded into a fireball brighter than the morning sun.
On Monday, scientists from Russia's Urals Federal University discovered a meteorite fragment weighing more than one kilogram (2.2 lbs), the largest found so far from the meteorite strike.

Gwinnett Daily Post
NEW YORK - Oil prices extended their drop from record highs Wednesday, falling to the $122 level after the Energy Department said gasoline demand fell sharply last week.
Retail gas prices, meanwhile, rose to a new record above $3.98 a gallon and are likely to hit $4 in coming days, although oil prices have retreated nearly $13 from last month's record levels. In its weekly inventory report, the department's Energy Information Administration said demand for gasoline fell by 1.4 percent over the last four weeks. Meanwhile, gasoline inventories rose by 2.9 million barrels last week, more than three times the increase analysts polled by energy research firm Platts had expected. Concerns about demand have helped pull oil down from its May 22 high of $135.09. Those concerns were exacerbated Wednesday by the EIA report and by moves by India and Malaysia to cut fuel subsidies, effectively raising prices. Many investors believe subsidy cuts will choke off demand for fuel in the developing world. 'There's definitively smaller demand, (and) you have subsidies that are going to fall in energy consuming nations,' said James Cordier, president of Tampa, Fla.-based trading firms Liberty Trading Group and OptionSellers.com. 'The psychology is just changing.' Light, sweet crude for July delivery fell $2.01 to settle at $122.30 barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange after earlier falling as low as $121.84. It was oil's lowest settlement since May 6. July gasoline futures plummeted 15.74 cents to settle at $3.1951 a gallon. At the pump, meanwhile, the national average price of a gallon of regular gas rose half a cent overnight to $3.983, according to a survey of stations by AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. Prices are likely to reach $4 for the first time regardless of what happens with oil prices, said Fred Rozell, retail pricing director at the OPIS, which is based in Wall, N.J.More like this story
- Crude oil stalls in march toward $100 after report says inventories fell less than expected ( November 8, 2007 )
- Crude prices soar past $96 a barrel on Middle East bombings, government demand expectations ( November 7, 2007 )
- Oil prices surpass $130 after supply drop, rising demand ( May 22, 2008 )
- Oil prices fall; traders see choppy market ahead ( June 9, 2008 )
- Oil falls to almost $124 on dour economic data ( August 1, 2008 )

Local Attorneys Educate High Schoolers on Credit Abuse
Ninty-two attorneys and judges volunteered their time and talent for the 2013 Credit Abuse Resistance Education (CARE) program on March 13 and 14.
This year, the attorneys visited 19 high schools and gave117 classroom presentations to approximately 4,800 seniors. The program's goal is to raise awareness among students about making responsible money, credit and financial choices.
The Louisville Bar Association's Bankruptcy Section has served Jefferson County Public Schools with this credit education program for the past six years. The Gheens Institute for Innovation awarded the CARE program with its Creativity and Entrepreneurship Award in May 2012. The CARE Advisory Committee in Louisville is headed by Ted King of the law firm Frost Brown Todd and retired Judge William L. Knopf.

Milan complete loan signing of Constant
AC Milan have signed midfielder Kevin Constant on a one-year loan deal from Genoa.
The French-born Guinean player joins the San Siro outfit with Milan having an option to make his move permanent next summer.
The Serie A giants made this move in the transfer market after confirming that midfielder Sulley Muntari would be sidelined for six months through injury.
The Ghana international recently underwent an operation to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
"It has been a quick decision to take Constant and I must thank (Genoa) president (Enrico) Preziosi," Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani told Gazzetta dello Sport.
"He was a player that we wanted to sign last year.
"In agreement with our coach, we have decided to get him once we found out about Muntari's injury.
"Muntari has had an ugly injury. I have never had a player that tore his cruciate (ligaments) during the holidays."
The Rossoneri club also confirmed they have acquired 50% of the sporting rights of defender Francesco Acerbi from Genoa.
Acerbi, who played at Chievo last season, has put pen to paper on a five-year contract with Milan.
"To play at Milan is a dream come true for anyone," said the 23-year-old Acerbi. "I will try to earn a regular spot in the team.
"Playing alongside Thiago Silva will no doubt help me as he is the best defender in the world."
Acerbi and Constant will undergo a medical this week before being unveiled to the media.

China has extreme excess butadiene supply...not sure how much of an edge Kraton's products have over the competition.
The elimination of a number of unprofitable products, a new pricing policy that raises prices more quickly than in the past, a significant drop in the prices of its key inputs, and negative earnings caused solely by the company's use of FIFO accounting...not terrible performance all should act as catalysts to eventually drive Kraton's stock higher over the next year.
as of sep 2011, has a run rate of eps of 5.4 based on last 2 qtrs. ie a pe of 4x. 600 mill mcap. not much volume growth but price growth primarily. cashflow going into inventory stocking. low insider.
drew likeded it . Chemicals (ag) are no. 3 in stock groupings that are leading all stocks.
I'm looking for a gain of about 50% to $45/share.
A plastics company with a compelling P/E ratio.
It has several interesting new products including a polymer for use making the interior panels for cars. This new polymer is 30 to 40% lighter which should appeal to car companies seeking to achieve better fuel economy. If that weren't enough, Kraton's new polymer is molded at lower temperatures. This equates to cost/energy savings as well.
This is just one example of Kraton's pipeline. Maybe that is why they are expecting to eventually have 20% of revenue coming from newly developed products.
