Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)
With its sweeping 2,330-km-wide viewing swath, MODIS sees every point on our world every 1-2 days in 36 discrete spectral bands. Consequently, MODIS tracks a wider array of the earth's vital signs than any other Terra sensor. For instance, the sensor measures the percent of the planet's surface that is covered by clouds almost every day. This wide spatial coverage enables MODIS, together with MISR and CERES, to help scientists determine the impact of clouds and aerosols on the Earth's energy budget.
In addition to recording the frequency and distribution of cloud cover, MODIS measures the properties of clouds such as the distribution and size of cloud droplets in both liquid water and ice clouds. MODIS also measures the properties of aerosols—tiny liquid or solid particles in the atmosphere. Aerosols enter the atmosphere from manmade sources like pollution and biomass burning and natural sources like dust storms, volcanic eruptions, and forest fires. MODIS helps scientists determine the amount of water vapor in a column of the atmosphere and the vertical distribution of temperature and water vapor—measurements crucial to understanding Earth's climate system.
Another MODIS instrument flies aboard Terra's sister ship—Aqua.

Awesome, love the old Chris Crafts. My grandfather restored three woodies from 1950s, gorgeous boats that he stripped down bare and varnished. He sold the last one before he died in 1990, and I'm trying to track it down. It was between 32-34, I think. If anyone ever sees a boat named Eller's Propellers let me know! I also really like the idea of the boat you have... same lines as the classics, less maintenance with the steel.

The following brief biography of the ground breaking German artist, John Heartfield, was written by his grandson, John Joseph Heartfield, for
The Encyclopedia of German-American Relations
. It has since been slightly modified with additional information provided by respected Heartfield Scholars.
See"LINKS" for additional biographical information. For my personal recollections of my grandfather, please see the "FAQ" section of this Internet Archive.
John Heartfield
was a pioneer in the use of art as a political weapon. His photomontages became famous on both sides of the Atlantic as daring and effective tools, satirically mocking and actively resisting the worldwide threat of fascism in the middle of the twentieth century.
He was born on June 19, 1891 in Berlin-Schmargendorf.
On the back of the photograph at left taken in 1912, he wrote his name "Helmut." (See back of photo above). However, in 1917, while living in Berlin, he anglicized his name from Helmut Herzfeld as a protest against anti-British fervor sweeping Germany.
One year earlier, he had destroyed all his paintings (mainly landscapes) except one, believing they were unworthy and irrelevant. However, soon he was to become the central figure in the development of a new form of art that would have a profound effect upon culture, politics, and society. It began very early one morning in 1920 when he and George Grosz were experimenting with pasting pictures together. From this exercise grew Heartfield's lifetime obsession with what was to be known as photomontage.
Sometime during Heartfield's seventh or eighth year of childhood, he and his three siblings were abandoned by their parents in the woods. He was raised in a series of foster homes. Throughout his life, he maintained a very close relationship with his brother, Wieland. In 1912, after studying arts and crafts in Munich and Berlin, he found work as a commercial artist. From the beginning, Heartfield was infused with a passionate belief that art existed not to glorify the artist but to serve the common good.
In 1917, John Heartfield founded the Malik-Verlag publishing house in Berlin. At that time, his beloved brother, Wieland Herzfelde, who had changed his name from Wieland Herzfeld in 1913, was serving near the front. The brothers were soon to become partners in Malik-Verlag, with John being responsible for the majority of the graphics for its publications.
Also in 1917, Heartfield became a member of Berlin Club Dada. In 1920 he helped organize the Erste Internationale Dada-Messe (First International Dada Fair) in Berlin. Dadaists were the young lions of the German art scene, opinionated provocateurs who often disrupted public art gatherings and ridiculed the participants. They labeled traditional art trivial and bourgeois. Heartfield was a vital member of a circle of German titans that included Dada playwright Edwin Piscator, Bertolt Brecht, Hannah Hoch, and a host of others.
In January of 1918, Heartfield joined the newly founded German Communist Party (KPD). It is important to note that, throughout his life, Heartfield was a devoted pacifist and never believed in violent revolution. He had faith in both people and the truth and believed that if he brought the two together, the result would be an improvement for the vast majority of society.
Members of Berlin Club Dada would have a profound effect upon him. He, in turn, deeply influenced their work as well. His theater sets were vital elements in the early works of Piscator and Brecht. Heartfield played a major role in helping Brecht to realize the concept of the "alienation effect" (Verfremdungs-effekt). This new theater technique was to remind spectators that they were experiencing an enactment of reality and not reality itself. Using minimal props and stark stages such as those created by Heartfield, Brecht interrupted his plays at key junctures to encourage the audience to be part of the action and not to lose themselves in it.
Heartfield preferred reality to artistic pretension. While he referred to himself as a monteur, he enjoyed the title engineer. In the Museum of Modern Art in New York hangs a George Grosz Montage entitled, "The Engineer Heartfield."
Although he did not wish to be labeled an artist, he had a full measure of an artist's passion. His Dada contemporaries tied him to a chair and enraged him just to experience the unbridled intensity of his emotions.
His strongest emotion, however, was his hatred of fascism. During the 1920s, Heartfield had produced a great number of stunning photomontages, many of which were reproduced as dust jackets for books such as his montage for Upton Sinclair's The Millennium.
From 1930 to 1938, John Heartfield designed illustrations for the "Arbeiter Illustrierte Zeitung," a magazine published by the New German Press, which was run by the political activist Willi Münzenberg. The AIZ had a significant readership in Weimar-era Germany. It may easily have been the second most popular magazine in Nazi Germany. After the National Socialists took control of Germany, the AIZ was published for German readers in Czechoslovakia, Austria, Switzerland, and easter France.
It is notable that prior to March of 1933, Heartfield lived in Berlin, where his fervent anti-fascist political montages appeared on the cover of the AIZ on newsstands throughout the city. This is a vital point, because during 1931, while he was living in Berlin, Heartfield's scathing anti-Nazi montages were visible at newsstands throughout the city.
Although he shined in several other mediums, such as stage sets and book covers, there's no doubt that Heartfield is best known for the satiric political montages he created during the 1930s to expose The Third Reich. During the 1930s and 1940s, he created some of his most famous montages:
Adolf, the Superman
(published in the Arbeiter Illustrierte Zeitung [AIZ, Workers' Illustrated Newspaper], Berlin, July 17, 1932), used a montaged X-ray to expose gold coins in the Fuehrer's esophagus leading to a pile in his stomach as he rants against the fatherland's enemies.
In Göring: The Executioner of the Third Reich
(AIZ, Prague, September 14, 1933), Hitler's designated successor is depicted as a bloody butcher.
The Meaning of Geneva, Where Capital Lives, There Can Be No Peace
(AIZ, Berlin, November 27, 1932), shows a dove of peace impaled on a blood-soaked bayonet in front of the League of Nations, where the cross of the Swiss flag has morphed into a swastika.
Heartfield's artistic output was prolific.
As Germany careened into fascism, Heartfield's montages filled the streets of Berlin. His work was also circulated throughout the city in the form of posters. Heartfield believed the best way to distribute his work to his audience was to distribute it through forms of mass media such as periodicals, posters, and book jackets.
(NOTE: I'm certain my grandfather would be pleased and fascinated to see his work reproduced throughout the Internet and on this Digital Archive).
During his most prolific years, it was through rotogravure—an engraving process whereby pictures, designs, and words are engraved into the printing plate or printing cylinder—that he was able to reach the audience he coveted.
Incredibly, Heartfield lived in Berlin until April 1933. On Good Friday, the SS broke into his apartment, and he barely escaped by jumping from his balcony. He then walked around the Sudeten Mountains to Czechoslovakia.
Force to flee from Berlin, he continued to use the National Socialists' own words to expose the truth behind their twisted dreams. In 1934, he montaged four bloody axes tied together to form a swastika to mock
The Old Slogan in the "New" Reich: Blood and Iron
(AIZ, Prague, March 8, 1934).
In 1938, he had to again run for his life—this time to England—before the imminent Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia. He was interned for a time in England as an enemy alien, then release as his health began to seriously deteriorate. His brother, Wieland, was refused an English residency permit in 1939 and, with his family, left for the United States. John wished to accompany his brother, but was refused entry.
In 1941, Heartfield made it clear that he wished to remain in England and did not wish to return to Germany (see
John Heartfield Letter, 1941
). He and his new wife, Gertrud, found themselves with limited options.
Humboldt University in East Berlin offered Heartfield the position of "Professorship of Satirical Graphics" in 1947.
His response was, "Do I have to be a professor?"
He returned to East Berlin in 1950 and was greeted with suspicion by the authorities because of the length of his stay in England. For six years, he was unable to work as a artist and was denied health benefits. He was suspected of "collaboration" by the East German Government because of the amount of time he had lived in England and the fact his dentist was under suspicion.
It was only through the intervention of Bertolt Brecht and Stefan Heym that, after six years of official neglect, Heartfield was formally admitted to the East German Akademie der Künste (Academy of the Arts) in 1956. However, his health has deteriorated and, although he subsequently produced some memorable montages addressing the threat of nuclear war, he was never as prolific again.
John Heartfield died on April 26, 1968 in East Berlin, German Democratic Republic.
Almost all of John Heartfield's surviving original art can be found within the comprehensive Heartfield Archiv in the Akademie der Künste in Berlin, Germany.
From April 15 to July 6, 1993, the second floor of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City was the American venue for a critically acclaimed exhibit of Heartfield's original montages.

With a mess of MTV and Teen Choice awards, Fall Out Boy obviously speaks to the rebellious modern teen. To Fall Out Boy, innovation is key. Creativity is never lacking in Fall Out Boy music, as guitarist/vocalist Patrick Stump, bassist Pete Wentz, guitarist Joe Trohman, and drummer Andy Hurley mix punk, emo, hard rock, pop, and orchestral sensibilities in their records. Although some speculated that their latest album "Folie a Deux" would be a folk album, Wentz confirmed on the Fall Out Boy journal that in fact, the rumors were not true, and that their next album will be "raprock". According to Rolling Stone, Folie a Deux has "heightened historical self-consciousness registers most strongly in the music itself, which mashes up the band's staples — caffeine-injected punk pop and bursts of prog-rock pomp ." Tracks feature the likes of Lil Wayne, Pharrell, Elvis Costello, Debbie Harry and Travis McCoy. So you're in for a real treat when you buy Fall Out Boy tickets. Fall Out Boy is pumped for the new tour. Get yourself some cheap Fall Out Boy tickets here. |

Vancouver Canucks defenceman Dan Hamhuis will have surgery early next week and may not be ready for the start of training camp, while fellow blueliner Christian Ehrhoff will avoid going under the knife.
Hamhuis left Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final early in the second period following a hip check from Boston Bruins forward Milan Lucic. It was later discovered that Hamhuis suffered a sports hernia, groin and lower abdomen injury.
It is not known exactly what surgical procedure will be required until doctors can have a closer look at the injury.
Hamhuis missed 18 games during the regular season with two separate concussions. He appeared in 19 post-season games for the Canucks, recording one goal and five assists and averaged 22:40 of ice time per game.
Ehrhoff will not require surgery to repair a shoulder injury he suffered in Game 3 of the Western Conference Final against the San Jose Sharks, instead, he's been told to take two-to-three weeks of rest.
The 28-year-old from Moers, Germany, was minus-13 with two goals and 10 assists in the playoffs.
Hamhuis and Ehrhoff are believed to be just two of a long list of Canucks players who were playing through some sort of injury.
There was speculation that Ryan Kesler and Henrik Sedin played hurt, but the team wouldn't confirm their injuries. Defenceman Alex Edler acknowledged he was playing Game 7 with a pair of broken fingers, while forward Chris Higgins reportedly played with a broken foot suffered in the second round.
Martin St. Louis is a Ranger, Matt Moulson is a member of the Minnesota Wild and the Montreal Canadiens have Thomas Vanek. Look back at all the big name deals that went down.

The candidates for Indiana's 9th District seat in Congress have sparred for the past five months over the best ways to create jobs, stimulate the economy and rein in debt.
But on Tuesday night, incumbent Republican Todd Young and Democratic challenger Shelli Yoder exchanged ideas face-to-face in their first debate of the campaign. The candidates traded ideas, strategies and a few barbs during the debate conducted at Franklin College. They clashed on job creation, health care, energy policy and funding for Planned Parenthood.
Young and Yoder, both Bloomington residents, are vying for Indiana's 9th District seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. The winner of the election will represent Southern Indiana — including Clark and Floyd counties — for 2013-14.
Young has held the 9th District seat for the past two years. He is a military veteran and attorney and has served on the House Budget Committee and the House Armed Services Committee. He was among those responsible for overseeing the process of creating a spending budget for the federal government, setting how much money would go to every government program and office. In this role, he said, he was able to witness some of the inefficiencies and problems that he said are crippling the country's economy. Young said the way to foster business and make new jobs is to scale back regulations and let the free market work.
"This campaign can be summed up in one word — trust. Are we going to trust our large, interventionist government to get our economy running? Or are we going to trust the American people," he said.
Yoder agreed that the power to spark jobs lies with the people. She advocated more support for entrepreneurs and small businesses as opposed to big corporations. Public-private partnerships could be used to foster innovative new businesses in green energy and biotechnology. Where government could help would be to invest in infrastructure, including improving bridges, ensuring airports are sound, and helping get broadband technology to all people.
"It's become a social justice issue that people have been cut out of the 21st century because of where they live," she said.
While job creation has been the central point for both candidates' campaigns, the initial question at the debate dealt with their approach to health care.
Yoder threw her support behind the Affordable Care Act, relaying her discussions with voters throughout the 9th District. She talked about how the legislation ensured that people who otherwise would not have received care were able to get the treatment they needed.
"Families and individuals are being helped by the patient protections by this amazing piece of legislation," she said.
But while the legislation did help the uninsured, it also took money out of Medicare, taxed medical devices and imposed new costs on people, Young said. Worst of all, it took away some people's ability to choose their insurers. That was why he had been part of a repeated effort to repeal the act.
"We were promised that everyone who liked their health insurance would be able to keep it. We now know that isn't true," he said. "We also have to get our fiscal house in order so there are sufficient resources to invest in the future, instead of investing in government programs that are growing at an uncontrollable pace."
Discussing the threats to the country, Yoder mentioned cyber-terrorism.
"We have almost no protection against cyber threats. It could mess with so much of our infrastructure, our banking and financial institutions, our way of life," she said. "This Congress decided to go home and campaign instead of taking care of this very important security question."
Young agreed that cyber-terrorism was important but brought up what he said is a more pressing matter — the national debt.
As the debate came to a close, both candidates returned to the issue of job creation. Young stressed how he would support small businesses with fewer regulations and less government involvement to get the economy humming again. He told a story about a couple in Seymour who fought through government bureaucracy and red tape to open a small brewery.
"Even during this difficult time, people are dreaming big dreams and working hard to make their dreams come true," he said. "This is how jobs are built in this country."
Yoder focused on moving the country forward. Instead of repealing laws and undoing progress that had been made in recent years, she would work to ensure America's middle class again could prosper.
"The middle class for too long has gotten squeezed. We're not getting squeezed out, we're getting squeezed down," she said. "We don't want a handout, we want a hand up. We want a level playing field."

Rated 2.8 out of 5 by 24
Rated 5 out of 5 by backlash172 Flawless
After reading the negative reviews I decided to try them anyway because I just could not find any factory Mags. I took the advise of another reviewer and cleaned them off, filled them and put them away for a month. When I finally used them they worked flawlessly in my Ruger P-95 with whatever ammo I put in them, cheap steel case or expensive brass, just wish Bass pro still sold them for my gun

Rated 1 out of 5 by MPTim No good
Bought a ProMag at a Bass Pro store because factory S&W M&P 40 mags are hard to find.Misfed every round I tried to chamber.Totally unusable.Returned next day to store,told them why,and received full refund.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Hohopirates Shoots..but
I bought one of these for a RIA 1911 and it shoots great, no failures to feed etc. But, when Mag is empty it does not lock the slide back. My RIA will lock back with Kimber mags, Colt mags and every other one I have tried. I will keep it as my last mag, but it really slows down reload efforts.

Purchased this mag at our local Bass Pro for a 17rd M&P Pro CORE. When loaded with > 9 rounds the floor plate blew out upon expending the first round, spilling the remaining magazine's ammunition in front of me. Reassembled and repeated several times. Shooting partner was amused. This is not something I want to happen in front of an IDPA audience or God forbid defending myself or family. I destroyed the mag to ensure the experience could not be repeated in the future. I can not recommend this product's use based on its potential for failure in critical situations.

Both Sohu and Tencent trail market leaders Youku and Baidu in China's burgeoning online video market.
- Dangdang (DANG +8.6%) is adding to yesterday's big post-earnings gains after Oppenheimer hiked its PT to $15. The firm likes Dangdang's improved efficiency and partnerships with e-commerce rivals (inc. Alibaba's Tmall), and the fact mobile accounted for 13% of Q4 orders.

- On a good day for many tech momentum plays, solar and Chinese Internet stocks led the way.
- Solar names could be benefiting from Chinese government remarks suggesting Beijing remains open to trade talks to end its ongoing solar import dispute with the U.S. The comments come after the ITC added Chinese solar panels made with Taiwanese cells to its list of Chinese panels covered by import duties.
- Also: SunEdison (SUNE +6.6%) has filed for an IPO for its solar project business, a move that could entice other companies with major solar project ops to do the same.

- For the second straight quarter (previous), Sohu (SOHU -3.6%) and subsidiary Changyou (CYOU -12.5%) are falling after posting mixed results and issuing light guidance.
- Sohu expects Q1 revenue of $355M-$367M and EPS of -$1.10 to -$1.20, below a consensus of $378.6M and breakeven. Changyou expects Q1 revenue of $174M-$180M and EPS of -$0.30 to -$0.42, below a consensus of $198.8M and $1.00.
- Along with its Q4 report, Changyou has announced CFO Alex Ho is leaving to "start his own business." Finance director Erin Sheng will serve as interim CFO while the game developer searches for a permanent replacement.
- Changyou, responsible for over half of Sohu's Q4 revenue, attributes its guidance to a revenue drop for flagship title TLBB, seasonal ad weakness, and bigger marketing and personnel investments. Changyou also says it's implementing an employee profit-sharing plan tied to specific projects.
- Though its revenue rose 9% Y/Y, Changyou's monthly active accounts fell 19% Q/Q and 34% Y/Y to 25M, thanks to declining accounts for TLBB and DDTank. Platform channel accounts rose 51% Q/Q and 93% Y/Y to 149M.
- Changyou's opex soared 82% Q/Q and 156% Y/Y. Gross margin was 82%, -200 bps Q/Q and Y/Y.
- Sohu's Sogou search revenue rose 23% Q/Q and 72% Y/Y to $70M. Brand ad sales fell 1% Q/Q but rose 50% Y/Y to $123M.
- Sohu's opex rose 78% Y/Y, well above rev. growth of 29%. Gross margin fell 200 bps Q/Q and 500 bps Y/Y to 64%.
- Q4 results: Sohu, Changyou. PRs: Sohu, Changyou.

- U.S. and Chinese Internet stocks are adding to last week's big losses, as investors continue taking profits following major 2013 gains. Chinese stocks were hit last week by an emerging markets selloff, weak PMI data, and an SEC ban (pending appeal) on audits from the Chinese units of big-4 U.S. accounting firms.
- Twitter (TWTR -8.2%), the company bears are most likely to point to when arguing a new Internet stock bubble has formed, is headlining the U.S. decliners. Shares are still up 25% from their post-IPO opening trade of $45.10.
- Other U.S. decliners: GOOG -3.1%. FB -2.9%. YELP -5.3%. Z -5.1%. LNKD -4.3%. P -3.2%. ANGI -4.1%. ZNGA -3.1%. GRPN -3.1%.

Thursday, Jan 239:59 AM
- SEC administrative law judge Cameron Elliot has barred the Chinese units of the Big-4 accounting firms - KPMG, Deloitte, PwC, and Ernst & Young - from auditing U.S.-listed companies for six months.
- Elliot declares the accounting firms "willfully" chose to withhold audit work papers from U.S. regulators for Chinese companies being investigated for accounted fraud. The firms have been worried about violating Chinese privacy laws by turning over the papers, and have argued the dispute needs to be resolved politically.
- Though the firms plan to appeal and say they can continue serving Chinese clients for now, shares of Chinese Web and solar names aren't handling the news well. Soft Chinese PMI data could be worsening matters.
- Chinese Web decliners: BIDU -2.5%. SOHU -3.2%. DANG -8.9%. SFUN -8.5%. PWRD -8.5%. QUNR -7.1%. LITB -6.5%. YY -6.1%. WUBA -6%. BITA -5.4%. EJ -5.9%. SINA -4.6%. LITB -6.5%. CTRP -5.4%. NQ -7.1%.
- Chinese solar decliners: TSL -8.7%. JASO -6.9%. SOL -6.3%. JKS -5.6%. CSIQ -5.4%. DQ -4.6%. YGE -5.6%. CSUN -6.2%. HSOL -7.8%.
- Qihoo (QIHU -4.6%) has joined the selloff in spite of a BrightWire report stating Alibaba (ABABA) has reached a deal to acquire a stake in the company. Marbridge Consulting reported two weeks ago Qihoo and Alibaba were in talks about a possible investment.

- Saturday Night Live (CMCSA) has made its debut on Chinese video site Sohu.com (SOHU +0.5%).
- The development marks another important step in attempting to spur more Chinese audiences to watch content through legitimate channels, instead of through piracy.
- What to watch: If significant progress is continued to be made in China with copyright protection and government interference is held in check, the market for broadcasters (DIS, AMCX, VIAB, FOXA, CBS) could explode as younger viewers in China lap up quality U.S.-produced shows.
- "It's fashionable to be a fan of American culture -- they [Chinese viewers] feel dignified, a person with class," notes Sohu.com CEO Charles Zhang on the trend.

- Pac Crest (Outperform) says its Chinese checks indicate Baidu's (BIDU +3.9%) Q4 trends are stable, at the company's growth rate can match that of the Chinese search market going forward.
- Though shares have risen sharply this year thanks to improved ad monetization (particularly on mobile) and a general rally in Chinese Internet stocks, concerns about search share losses to Qihoo (QIHU +1.4%) and (to a lesser extent) Sohu's (SOHU +2%) Sogou unit have persisted.
- Research firm CNZZ estimates Baidu had a 61.7% Chinese search share in October, down from 73.5% a year earlier. Over the same time, Qihoo's share surged to 21.4% from 9.8%, and Sogou's rose to 10.5% from 7.5%.

- Citi, Goldman, Macquarie, Jefferies, and Maxim have raised their Qihoo (QIHU +6.4%) PTs following the company's Q3 report (I, II). That's helping shares recoup a big chunk of yesterday's post-earnings losses; they're now only down 3% from Friday's close.
- Citi (Buy, $87 PT) has lifted its 2013-2015 EPS estimates by 7%-16% in response to Qihoo's Q3 beat and solid Q4 guidance. Macquarie (Outperform, $118 PT) praises Qihoo's search and mobile momentum: The firm estimates search revenue rose 87% Q/Q and made up 15% of total revenue, and that mobile revenue rose 67% Q/Q and made up 13% of total revenue.
- Goldman (Neutral, $79 PT) notes management stated on the CC (transcript) Qihoo's Chinese search share is up to 22%, and estimates its share is now 700-800 bps above that of Sohu's (SOHU +2.9%) Sogou unit.
- At the same time, with Qihoo estimating it only has a 1% search revenue share - Goldman thinks Sogou's search revenue remains 2x larger - the firm sees plenty of room to improve monetization. However, it cautions the investments needed to so are likely to depress near-term margins.
- Separately, a source tells Marbridge Consulting Qihoo plans to separate the management of its mobile gaming ops from that of its Android app store business. The source adds Qihoo's mobile gaming revenue now exceeds its PC browser gaming revenue.

- Sohu's (SOHU +0.8%) Changyou (CYOU -0.8%) online gaming subsidiary is buying a 62.5% stake in a company that owns Raidcall, developer of a popular online gaming group chat app, for $50M in cash. (PR)
- Raidcall has 20M+ registered users, and offers its software in 14 different languages. Changyou asserts the deal allows it to offer gamers "a more comprehensive selection of products," and aids its efforts to evolve into an online gaming platform (as compared with being a mere game developer).
- The deal comes less than a month after Changyou shares were clobbered due to weak Q4 EPS guidance attributed to heavy sales/marketing investments.

Could Augusta ever host an LPGA tournament?
| Sep 6, 2012
WILLIAMSBURG — Mike Whan played Augusta National twice during the late 1990s. Shot 80 the second time, from the tips. Not bad for an 8-handicapper.
Will the LPGA Tour that Whan directs ever play a tournament at this country's — the Old Course...

Baby Boomer Drug Use
Some members of the Woodstock generation are still using drugs.
Efforts to curb illegal drugs often focus on the young—with good reason. While more than 20 percent of 18-to-20-year-olds used illicit drugs last year, only about 6 percent of 50-to-54-year-olds did.
But illegal drug use among young people is decreasing. Cocaine and methamphetamine use among young adults dropped over the past year, according to a recent report, although abuse of prescription drugs is on the rise. Meanwhile, there has been a spike in illicit drug use among baby boomers.
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 2007 survey on drug use found that the rate of illicit drug use in the past month among those ages 50 to 54 increased from 3.4 percent in 2002 to 5.7 percent in 2007. The confidential survey of 67,500, which included in-person interviews conducted in respondents' homes, found that among those between the ages of 55 and 59, illicit drug use more than doubled from 1.9 percent in 2002 to 4.1 percent in 2007.
The authors of the report say these trends may partially reflect the aging into these age groups of the baby boomers, whose lifetime rates of illicit drug use are higher than those of older age groups.

Ok so every house I have lived in with hardwood floors - the floor by the front door takes a lot of abuse and you want to be careful about what to put on the wood to protect it. Short of pulling out wood and having a tile section................what kind of mat do folks use that does not scratch up or react with today's finishes?
Yes, a little rug is a simple solution. Do watch as the rubber backed ones are not recommended on wood floors so those non-slip undermats are necessary (and make sure they say on package they are safe for wood).
In my house I have braided rag rugs, nice woven rugs, and simple cotton rugs. All of them can go in the washing machine and are pretty thick in case any snow comes in on boots. They can be hard to find without that rubber backing but you will find them.
I agree with Nana24 as I have an older home with front door entry right into living room (todate)- Inexpensive Canadian Tire rug. It has worked well!!! I did have one with a rubber backing attached and it did not last. Moisture must have build up as the backing dissolved but no harm to the floor.
Any area rug will work - just make sure you put down a piece of non slip floor protector then the backing on the rug wont scratch your floor. You could get a light colour for the summer months & a dark one for the winter. Buy a 3' x 5' or bigger if the area is big enough. Good luck.

Busulfan, Melphalan, and Fludarabine With Peri-transplant Palifermin, Followed by a T-Cell Depleted Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant From HLA Matched or Mismatched Related or Unrelated Donors in Patients With Advanced Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

- How to Read a Study Record
This study will see if the researchers can lower that risk by giving the patient Palifermin. This drug helps protect the lining of the mouth, throat, and stomach. These areas typically get sores or ulcers while the blood cell counts are very low. The patient can get infections in or from these sores. Palifermin might also help the immune system recover faster. It is currently approved for patients who receive their own stem cells. That is called an autologous transplant. This study will test the use of Palifermin for T-cell depleted allogeneic stem cell transplants.

Estimated Study Completion Date: | February 2014 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | February 2014 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Arms | Assigned Interventions |
Experimental: 1
This is a single arm phase II trial to assess the efficacy (decrease the transplant related mortality) and safety of peri-transplant Palifermin in combination with a preparative regimen with busulfan, melphalan, fludarabine, and anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), and a T cell depleted stem cell transplant from a histocompatible related or unrelated donor in patients with advanced MDS and AML evolved from MDS. The addition of Palifermin is to decrease the toxicity and the infection rate associated with this regimen and transplant type and to foster earlier immune reconstitution.
Drug: Busulfan, Melphalan, Fludarabine, Anti-Thymocyte Globulin, Palifermin, Stem cell transplant
Patients will receive Palifermin 60 mcg/kg/day IV on three consecutive days with the last dose administered no less than 24 and no more than 48 hr prior to start of cytoreduction. The preparative regimen to be used for transplants will consist: of busulfan administered in 12 doses over three days of 0.8 mg/kg IV for patients > or = to 4 years of age or 1.0 mg/kg IV for patients < 4 years of age; melphalan 70 mg/m2 IV x 2 days; and, fludarabine 25 mg/m2 IV x 5 days

This followed up on Head Coach Jason Kelly's earlier west coast camp. The players trained and stayed at Tiger Town in Lakeland, Fla. "I thought it was a really good camp," Kelly told RUGBYMag.com. "If you pinned me down I'd say that this camp was maybe a shade more athletic than the first one, but it's close. We did identify several really good players." Kelly is still looking for more flyhalves and front-rowers, a state of affairs most USA elite teams deal with. And he is deep in talented back-rowers and centers, also not an uncommon situation. Among those that impressed were Jarod Stewart, who has played rugby league in the UK, and flanker Chris Maize, who learned his rugby in Hong Kong and was coached by an old teammate of Kelly's. The players overall responded well and really embraced the team ethos Kelly is trying to put together. "I am excited with the players we saw, and it's a good start, but we have a lot of work to do." Nine of the players in camp were returning USA U20s or played for the High School All Americans last year: Nick Barrett, Anitema Solomone, Alex Goff, Andy Sandoval, Vili Kihe Toluta'u, Teli Veamatahau, Joe Whalen and Greg Wood.

Unique to North America, the bald eagle is the continent's most recognizable aerial predator, with a shocking white head, electric yellow beak and penetrating eyes. In the 1960s, this symbol of the United States became an emblem of environmental degradation, as the pesticide DDT and other human pressures brought it to the brink of extinction. Following their protection as an endangered species, bald eagles have come roaring back. Photographed by three-time Emmy-winning cinematographer Neil Rettig, this first-ever HD hour on bald eagles focuses on the drama of the nest. Even in the best of times, it's a surprisingly tough struggle to maintain a one-ton home and raise chicks until they can hunt on their own. This is an intimate portrait of these majestic raptors' lives in the wild.
