Rajasthan Royals players Shantakumaran Sreesanth and Ankeet Chavan have been banned for life by the Board of Control for Cricket in India for being involved in spot-fixing in this year's Indian Premier League.
Former player Amit Singh, a bookie, was banned for five years on Friday, and Royals pace bowler Siddharth Trivedi was banned for one year for failing to report an approach by bookies.
Harmeet Singh was let off due to lack of evidence after it was reported that he too had been approached by illegal bookies.
No decision was made on Royals spinner Ajit Chandila, who was arrested with Sreesanth and Chavan in May. Unlike the latter two, Chandila had been mainly in police custody since then until he was granted bail on Monday, and had not been available to talk to anti-corruption officer Ravi Sawani, who led the BCCI investigation.
The BCCI made the decisions "after considering the evidence on record and hearing each of the players in person,'' it said in a statement.
The players were still subject to an investigation by Indian police. Sreesanth, who played 27 Tests and 53 one-dayers for India to 2011, Chandila and Chavan, alleged to be the main accused, were said to be part of an elaborate plan in which bowlers gave away more than a specified number of runs per over in return for money from illegal bookies.
Their arrest led to the questioning of two prominent IPL officials.
Chennai Super Kings team principal Gurunath Meiyappan, son-in-law of BCCI president Narainswamy Srinivasan, spent two weeks in jail for being in touch with illegal bookies before receiving bail, while Royals co-owner Raj Kundra conceded to betting on matches but was not arrested.
Meiyappan and Kundra were cleared of their charges by a two-member BCCI judicial panel which was subsequently declared "illegal and unconstitutional'' for not being formed in line with the BCCI's own rules by the Bombay High Court. The BCCI has contested the order and the case is before the Supreme Court.
Several bookies and some other former domestic-level players were also alleged to be part of the spot-fixing racket which came to light within a year of a similar controversy of lesser proportions.
Last year, little-known all-rounder TP Sudhindra was handed a life ban after he was filmed in a sting operation by India TV, agreeing to bowl a no-ball at a predetermined time in a local Twenty20 game in the central Indian city of Indore.
Another uncapped player, Shalabh Srivastava, was given a five-year ban for agreeing to spot-fixing in the IPL even though he did not go on to do so.
Three others - Mohnish Mishra, Amit Yadav and Abhinav Bali - receive done-year bans for "loose talk and unsubstantiated bragging'' after they were shown on TV claiming to negotiate their IPL contracts illegally.

New Mom
Does Becoming a Mom Mean Constant Worrying?
A dear friend of mine always has great advice for me, and one of his favorite doses is, "Babe, sometimes you just need to put the crazy on the shelf, even if it's only for a little while. Just give the crazy a rest."
He has said this to me a number of times in the past 10 years. Many times this advice was doled out in a bar-like atmosphere and there was tequila involved, but that is neither here nor there. It is good advice regardless of whether or not there is an influence of alcohol.
Well I am here to tell you, that since becoming a mom, I cannot put the crazy on the shelf, or even move it in the direction of the closet – no matter how hard I try.
And that's because something happened to my brain since becoming a mom that makes me worry about how I can prevent, manage, or handle any of the terrible scenarios that I see all around me every single day.
When that heart wrenching fire took place in Stamford, Connecticut on Christmas, killing Madonna Badger's 3 daughters and two parents, I could not stop thinking about it. It broke my heart, and I pictured myself trying to get Ellie out of a burning room. Horrible, terrible thoughts went through my head. To make myself feel better, I went to Home Depot to buy 3 more smoke detectors for my apartment, which already had two installed. I actually contemplated putting two in each room, just in case one failed in a room that happened to have a fire in it, the backup one would go off immediately.
Have I mentioned that my apartment is only about 950 square feet? Even the most seasoned fire marshal would probably tell me 8 smoke detectors in 950 square feet is a bit much.
I saw the news story about an intruder that broke in to a new mom's house, prompting her to call 911 while holding her 3-month-old baby, asking if it was okay to shoot the intruder. And I honestly thought, "I should get a gun." Just like that, "Oh, I should get a gun." The only thing is - I hate guns. They scare me. I never want to be near one. I wouldn't even know where to buy one.
But I hear about an intruder entering some poor moms apartment and I get all Annie Oakley, and start looking for the nearest firearm. That is not normal.
I saw a story the other day about a man being buried alive after snowmobiling triggered an avalanche, and I thought, "Well, I guess I am not going near snow ever again."
It's constant. I am always hearing of dangerous, or fatal scenarios and going through the life saving steps I would take in my head. It happens all hours of the day and night. And I'm pretty sure that repeated thought process proves, not only is the crazy not on the shelf – it is strewn all throughout the living room.
The reason for this is very simple, as a fellow mom said to me today, you don't see the world the same after you become a mom. You see a story on the news, and you relate it back to your family.
There is a switch that went off the moment I touched Ellie for the first time, that made me go from this carefree, tequila loving girl – to a mom that wants to protect her child from everything. And that is because something happened to my heart when I had Ellie. She opened it up, and made me capable of an entirely new level of love. I am able to care more deeply about everyone that is important to me, than I did before she was born. And I want to keep Ellie, everyone I love, and myself, safe and sound forever.
And that feeling, that love, can make putting the crazy on the shelf, impossible.

ELKINS, W.Va. -- A federal marshal was shot and killed while trying to serve a warrant in Elkins Wednesday morning. Two other marshals were also shot, and the gunman was then killed by law enforcement.
The U.S. Marshals Service identified the marshal who was killed as Derek Hotsinpiller, 24, of Bridgeport. He had been with the marshals for a little more than a year, serving in the Clarksburg office since his graduation from the U.S. Marshals Academy.
According to Hotsinpiller's Facebook page, he was a 2005 graduate of Bridgeport High School and he studied sociology at Fairmont State University.
Hotsinpiller comes from a line of law enforcement officers. His brother, Dustin, works for the Bridgeport Police Department. His late father, Jim, was also a Bridgeport police officer.
The marshals and State Police troopers were at the home of Charles Edward Smith at 319 Central St. in Elkins at about 8:30 a.m. to serve a warrant on him for failing to appear in court on possession of drugs and firearms charges.
After announcing that they were there to serve a warrant, officers breached the door and stepped into the house.
Smith, 50, then opened fire with a shotgun, hitting one marshal in the neck, one in his bulletproof vest and one in the arm or hand, according to sources.
A marshal and trooper then fired at Smith, killing him, according to Sgt. Michael Baylous of the State Police.
Sources familiar with the investigation say that Trooper Gregory Stalnaker, a trooper since 1994, fired the shot that killed Smith and prevented him from firing again.
The marshal shot through the neck was transported to Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown. It is not clear if he is the one who died.
A statement from the U.S. Marshal's office confirmed that three marshals were shot and that two were taken to a local hospital for treatment and one was transported by helicopter.
The condition of the other two deputies was not known Wednesday evening, but State Police said their injuries are "nonlife-threatening." Their identities are not being released at this time.
State Police Superintendent Col. T.S. Pack said the "senseless" killing of a U.S. Marshal "weighs heavy upon the heart of the West Virginia State Police family. Our thoughts and prayers remain with his family, friends and co-workers."
No deputy marshal has been killed by gunfire since the Ruby Ridge, Idaho, standoff in 1992.
A quiet place
Neighbors said the Central Street area is normally a quiet place, and they were shocked by the influx of police that descended on the area.
Angela Wilson, assistant principal at nearby Elkins Middle school, walked a couple of students home from the school Wednesday afternoon, through the alley adjacent to the city block that police cordoned off after the shootings.
"I don't normally do this," she said. "I just want to make sure everybody's safe."
One of the students from the middle school, Nick Harris, said school was abuzz with news of the shooting.
"The teachers were all talking about it," he said. "We don't ever make national news."

What is horse chestnut?
Horse chestnut is a tree native to Greece and other mountainous regions of the Balkan Peninsula. Widely cultivated throughout the world today, horse chestnut trees produce nut-like seeds called conkers, or horse chestnuts. Historically, whole horse chestnuts were used as game pieces and beads for jewelry, while an extract from their seeds and the tree's flowers have been used for health purposes.

Skip this place!! Living off it's OLD reputation. – We used to go to the old location and loved it. Last night we chose to follow a recent recommendation and try it out again with the couple next door. We arrived at 8:00, placed our order, which was recommended by the waiter, and sat for an hour before finally asking the waiter what was taking so long. He said our food was on the way. 30 minutes later, he came out and told us that the dish he recommended wasn't available. We asked to speak to the manager, who quickly told us it wasn't his fault, but that he would be able to cobble together one of the meals we ordered and that (with my second choice being a simple staple meal) our food would be out in 2 minutes. 20 minutes later, they delivered our food. Mine, the replacement meal, was cold in the middle (obviously frozen), the one my wife received (which was the one the said they ran out of) was dressed to look like a full plate, but was actually a little more than a half serving. When we called the manager out to ask, he admitted it was less than a full serving and offered to remove it from our bill (it was the most expensive dish on our order). During our meal, the chef came out, and (didn't apologize either) told us it wasn't his fault. Long story short, we were staring and just ate what we had. When the check came, the manager actually removed the cheapest meal from our check and charged us for the most expensive meal, which as mentioned above was the one that was delivered with less than a full serving portion, contrary to what he told us. We brought it to his attention and he acted like he didn't realize why it happened. He ended the night, discounting our bill the price of a half sized meal and telling us to come back and give it another try soon.
Honestly, the food wasn't bad, but the experience was probably the worst I've ever had. Someone jokingly said that we should have gone to Outback, because their service, even if the food is predictable, is never bad. As funny as that sounded, they were right.
As a business owner and parents of 3, my wife and I rarely get time out with friends. So when you do, you want it to be special. When you spend $150 on dinner and wine, you should get better. Next time we have time to ourselves, for a special night out, it will not be at the Laughing Cat!! Skip it.
More than A Dining Experience – After about 3 hours of drinking beers and smoking cigars at King Corona around the corner our group ran the Bing Scout feature and found TLC listed as 4.5 starts. The new location just opened 4 weeks ago. It was a great experience. Nicely done restuarant, large delicious portions, and great service. Ulysses was our server. We tried several appetizers and main courses. All delicious. After dinner Franco came out to meet us. What a character. He gave us a tour of the kitchen and showed us his custom motivational sign. You gotta see it!
The Best In Tampa – The food is outstanding. The prices are more than reasonable...especially when you consider that you will easily get a 2nd meal from the leftovers.
Our group of 8 friends go out to eat all over Tampa and this is by far our favorite. Hell, even the bread is to die for.
Get the Chicken Yolanda!
Awsome Food! Huge Portions! Highly Reccomend – The food was unreal!. My wife and I split a meal and still had to take some home. Anyone who thinks they are "overpriced" obviously did not actually eat there and see the portions. It was enough to feed us for 2 dinners. We would highly reccomend!
You Have Got to Be Related to the Owners to Rate them High – We came here from out of town based on 5-star reviews and were terribly dissapointed. The prices are not at all justified. Yes, the sauce was good, but the veal was not the most tender, the side salad was not at all worth almost $6 (and should have been included). Oh, and we were practically ignored in the beginning - I guess because we were not "regulars"? To top it off, on the way back to our car we were acosted by a man trying to "give away" something he had made into a heart from a box tie.
Simply Exquisite! – My boyfriend and I are always on the lookout for new places to dine, and after reading a review in a local paper, we decided that this place was worth a shot. We were still a bit skeptical even after being seated at our table, but the long list of items on the menu and the fantastic service we received immediately from our server, Peter, changed our minds. The gnoochi was perfectly cooked, the chicken parm was incredibly tender, and the homemade vodka and marinara sauces were amazing! Although the menu warns that the wait for the freshly made entrees may exceed typical wait times, our dinners came out relatively quickly. The restaurant closed as we were waiting for our entrees, but even still, customers were welcomed inside by staff. The portions are large and the ingredients are the freshest I've tasted! If you're in the mood for amazing Italian food, great service, and a small intimate atmosphere, this is the place for you!!
Best in Ybor – Wonderful food and good service. The chef personally showed us what each dish on the buffet was and outlined the ingredients for my mother
Fantastic food – At first glance you would not believe this is a top notch restaurant; however once you taste the food, you are immediately transformed to gourmet heaven.
This is the type of restaurant you can take your family to and know you will receive wonderful service; the wait staff treated us like family. They were very obliging to allow us to take pictures of them posing with us (approximately 40 Admin professionals enjoying a night out).
You can be sure the food will dazzle your tastebuds. The chef is very talented and I did not find one thing I did not love!! In fact, every comment from my companions reinforced my thoughts that this is indeed a 5-star restaurant.
Only one word -- FANTASTIC!!! – Thank you for a wonderful night of relaxation! The food was terrific! The wine was terrific! Our server -- Peter -- was TERRIFIC!
If you go to Tampa or live there ... do not bypass this place! You will not be dissappointed ...
When (if) I'm back in Tampa, The Laughing Cat will be on my agenda!
Fantastico! – We pre-arranged a menu for our group of 42 which was fantastic. Absolutely wonderful authentic and delicious Italian food like we never had before. Waiters and Franco fit right in with our crazy group. Received kudos from every member of the group for the best ever. The salmon dish was particularly fantastic as was every dish served. It was all you can eat for one price from appetizer through dessert. We all highly reccommend The Laughing Cat!

REWIND: Mark Madden calling out Evgeni Malkin
[ pic via pittsburghsportstavern ]
Two months ago the super-jobber had his yinzer pitch fork out on Evgeni Malkin.
As always, what you do on the Internet echoes in eternity.
Time to take a trip down memory lane and breakdown Madden's embarrassing article with the assistance of "Saved By The Bell" GIFs.
Madden's blog on the X, on October 31, 2011.
The Breakdown
No one gets their collective panties in a bunch like Geno Nation.After the Penguins' 4-3 loss at Toronto Saturday, I tweeted than Evgeni Malkin took some ill-advised penalties, and that Geno still needs production to consistently match artistry.
First, those penalties were anything but ill-advised. One was a terrible call. The other was borderline. Production to consistently artistry? The guy was a month in to coming back.
Reasonable opinions, especially since Malkin's two penalties both ended up in the net behind Brent Johnson.You'd have thought I crucified Malkin.But just to make sure, Geno Nation nailed their hero to the cross anyway. Martyrdom, thy number is 71.
There are people in the town of Pittsburgh that immediately blame Evgeni Malkin for everything. As part of Geno nation we'd just want to get the facts out. *Cough* Anyone remember who took that really dumb penalty one minute into game 7 against the Habs?
Here's the bottom line with Malkin: He hasn't been the same player since 2009, and despite the epiphany he supposedly experienced while rehabilitating his knee, I don't see a new and improved Malkin. I see the same player we've seen the last two seasons.
Total whiff on this. Malkin had some early-season flashes; he just wasn't finishing. Real big miss by Madden. Could lend itself to the fact Mark Madden might not even watch games.
That player is very good. But like Michel Therrien used to stress, Malkin's talent merits being in the NHL's top five scorers. Period.
Michel Therrien ended up playing blackjack at the Meadows every night, Malkin won a Cup and playoff MVP.
True, injury has again intervened. It takes a while to recover from knee surgery.
Only logical part of the article.
But I still see some of the same flaws. Too much stickhandling. Not enough shooting. The occasional petulance. The only clear improvement is on faceoffs.
Too much stickhandling? Really?
Give Malkin time? OK. How much time? Malkin has not been a consistently dominant player since 2009.When does that guy show up again? That's all I want to know.
2 months, Mark.

Many of you have heard of the famous Assateague Ponies. Well, Assateague island is 15 minutes away! Go west out RT 50, then left on RT 611, and just drive to the very end to Assatueague National Seashore. The national Park is Bayside, but I personally recommend the State Park, which is oceanside. See my pictures to see the ponies. I took that picture myself!
The town of Ocean City ALWAYS has something great going on! Just check their calendar of events. Whether it's the air show, free bands, arts annd crafts festivals, the town of Ocean City has it going on!
When skateboard parks first started, they were just kids skating in swimming pools. When a town made the first skaebaord park in the United States where was it? Three blocks away! at St. Louis and 3rd Street, the Ocean City Skatebowl was upgraded a few years ago and is better than ever!

by Zack O'Malley Greenburg
Ten urban centers closely associated with unmitigated joy.
Ever since Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers appeared in the 1933 film Flying Down to Rio, the world has been fascinated with Rio de Janeiro. Popular perception of the city is infused with images of starry-eyed youngsters dancing into the dusk, backed by imposing mountains and dark sea.
That view has propelled Rio to the top of our list of the world's happiest cities. Famous for its annual Carnaval festival (starting Feb. 13 next year), the second-largest metropolis in South America finished first among 50 cities in a recent survey conducted by Simon Anholt, an author and policy adviser.
"Brazil is associated with all these qualities of good humor and good living and Carnaval," says Anholt. "Carnaval is very important--it's the classic image that people have of Rio, and it's an image of happiness."
In Pictures: The World's Happiest CitiesNext on the list is the top city from Down Under: Sydney, Australia. Known for balmy weather, friendly locals and an iconic opera house, Sydney fared well in Anholt's survey because of its association with a popular brand--Australia.
"It's where everybody would like to go," he says. "Everybody thinks they know Australia because they've seen Crocodile Dundee. There's this image of this nation of people who basically sit around having barbecues."
Rounding out the top five are third-ranked Barcelona, Spain, which Anholt calls "the classic Mediterranean city"; fourth-ranked Amsterdam, Netherlands, because Anholt's young respondents "know you can smoke dope in the bars"; and Melbourne, Australia, which makes the list simply because it's in Australia.
"People know it's in Australia, and that it's full of Australians," says Anholt. "Therefore, it must be fun."
Behind the Numbers
The data Anholt provided for our list is part of his Nation Brands Index, which he developed in 2005. The latest incarnation, the 2009 Anholt-GfK Roper City Brands Index, was released in June. The data was compiled from online interviews with 10,000 respondents in 20 countries.
Happiness is difficult to quantify, and Anholt acknowledges that his data is less an indicator of where local populations are happiest than a reflection of respondents' thinking about where they could imagine themselves happy.
"This is a survey of perception, not a survey of reality," he says. "People write me all the time and say 'that's not true.' It probably isn't true, but it's what people think. The gap between perception and reality is what interests city governments."
The French historian Fernand Braudel wrote that "Happiness, whether in business or private life, leaves very little trace in history." But a perception of happiness leaves a strong trace on the balance sheets of cities that depend on conventions, tourism and an influx of talent.
The Pursuit of Happiness
Anholt notes that the results of his survey reflect the longstanding reputation of Mediterranean and Latin American cities as non-stop party locales.
"It's pretty much the expected bunch," says Anholt. "Though I'm a little surprised about Spain outdoing Italy. It's interesting that the Spanish are perceived as being happier than the Italians--I find the Spanish rather gloomy."
Still, Barcelona--Spain's highest-ranked city--has plenty of supporters.
"The beauty of the city and its environs, along with affordable housing and business opportunities, is the fantastic lifestyle," says Michelle Finkelstein, a vice president at travel agency Our Personal Guest. "There's not the stress of getting a child into the best preschool--the public ones are good and close by. And they have the top soccer team and some of the best weather in Europe."
Other places in the world that lack the metropolitan flair of the cities on this list are often identified with the notion of happiness. "Anyone lucky enough to visit the magical Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan would know that there is no competition: There can be no happier place," says Patricia Schultz, author of 1,000 Places to See Before You Die. "This small Buddhist nation of incredibly stunning beauty follows a unique guiding philosophy of GNH--Gross National Happiness. You can see it in their open faces--they smile from the heart. Barcelona has nothing on them."
Global rivalries notwithstanding, Anholt notes that his findings more or less support historical trends, with one notable exception.
"The cities on this list would probably be the same if I'd been running this survey in 1890, aside from Sydney and Melbourne," he says. "Australia is kind of a branding miracle."
Not bad for a former penal colony.

XVIII International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2010)
18–23 July 2010
"Support and service needs of people living with HIV and AIDS: A study in context of Bangladesh"
Amar Krishna Baidya, Ismat Bhuiya, Asiful Haidar Chowdhury, Mahmudur Rahman Chowdhury, and Kamrul Hassan
Understanding the needs of people living with HIV and AIDS (PLHA) is crucial in Bangladesh to ensure they have a safe and positive life. The study was conducted to assess existing support and services for PLHA and to explore unmet needs of PLHA, which will help to develop standard operating procedures (SOPs) for services to PLHA.
Data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, and the respondents were selected purposively. Respondents included service providers, program managers, policymakers, researchers, donors, and the beneficiaries of services. Four focus group discussions with nearly 100 participants and 19 in-depth interviews with key stakeholders were conducted. Through content analysis data were analyzed.
There is a huge gap in terms of adequacy, uniformity, quality, and monitoring of services providing to PLHA by the organizations. An SOP is a felt need of the organizations working with PLHA as they have no guidelines when it comes to operating activities, and the ones who do have guidelines that do not fulfill the requirements for delivering comprehensive, high-quality services to PLHA. Through assessment, 37 different types of support and service needs were identified. A strategic framework was prepared for developing a comprehensive SOP by categorizing the identified needs into four domains: prevention, treatment, and nursing care; psychological support; human rights and legal supports; and socioeconomic support. The home-based care, care of dead persons, surgery, support for orphans, widow,s and widower, job opportunities, and nutritional support are not being addressed by the existing program for PLHA.
Based on the findings of the assessment a comprehensive SOP for services to PLHA was developed which was endorsed by the Government of Bangladesh for providing comprehensive, high-quality services to PLHA.

Publisher's Description
Do you ever question Gods ability to catch you when you fall?
Do shame, fear, and brokenness keep you from fully trusting God?
Do you secretly believe your dreams are unreachable? Do you secretly believe your dreams are unreachable? You are not alone.
This is a book about trust. How we fight it. How we learn to do it. How it transforms us. Life is not safe. That reality slips over us as we grow. Our response to the Father in that reality allows us either to swing higher and higher with the trust of a child . . . or fearfully shrink back from the swing set altogether. As we weigh that choice, God whispers: Trust me.
In a remarkably transparent account, author and speaker Sheila Walsh opens wide her lifelong battle with trust and the moment-by-moment choices she made to follow where God led. Sheila has lived a life ruled by the hidden places of insecurity and brokenness and knows the overwhelming beauty of a life wholly handed over to Christ.
As you encounter her struggles and triumphs, you also meet ten of the Bibles transformedTabitha, David, Paul, and otherswho teach us that in spite of overwhelming circumstances, just one trusting encounter with Christ sets beautiful things in motion. It can resurrect dreams, instill purpose, and ignite hope.

Hello, my manager (store owner) just purchased is new i Pad 2 WI-FI, 64GB Verizon enabled. Now since I support all the PC is the pace I get to support his i Pad.
I have used gmail to sync his PC, droid phone, and his i Pad 2.
Over the weekend he received an email. He responded to the email with his i Pad. Neither the WI-FI or Verizon were available. Now he can not find the sent message.
Does anyone know where it went. I don't find it in any sent folder, or draft folder. Did it go on and get sent once the WI-FI or Verizon links were established, or was it just lost?

Unboxing Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro Video
Unboxing Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro Video Transcript
Today, we are unboxing the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display. You may remember that we unboxed the 15-inch model in the first episode of Always On. Back then, we had to borrow the one that the lab guys from New York got. But now, we have enough money to buy our own. My God, it's got my name on it. Packing list. All right. And, I am coming up in the world 'cause I still have my light box cutter with my name on it. Let's check it out. MacBook Pro. That's a pretty heavy box, I'm not gonna lie. It feels pretty beefy. They do packaging well. Here's our little box, power [unk], a little extra cable there, instructions. No CDs in the box, of course. Why would there be? This is heavy. I mean it's not that heavy, but it feels heavy compared to an Air, because it's a 13-inch laptop, and I was all kind of gotten used to that really Air-sized thing. It's a much beefier laptop, definitely has that Pro feel. Yeah. Oh, okay. So I put it up and see if it can come on, so we can check out the retina display. While I get it all set up, let's do the specs. The MacBook Pro with Retina Display starts at $1699. And it goes up rapidly from there. It has that 2560x1600 display, which looks pretty darn good. The base model has a 2.5 Gigahertz Dual Core Intel Core i5 processor with 8 Gigs of on-board RAM. The base model has a 128 Gig solid-state flash drive. But you're probably not going to want that, considering that you're likely a photographer, if you are the MacBook Pro Retina's target market. You'll wanna upgrade to 256 Gigs for an additional $300. There's also a 512 Gig option, or 768 Gigs. That one will cost you an additional $1300. The MacBook Pro weighs 3.57 pounds, it has a 720p FaceTime HD camera that looks very nice, 2 thunderbolt ports and USB 3, HDMI out, and an SDXC card slot for those photographers who might want to use it. It has a full-size back-lit keyboard and it ships with Mountain Lion. I was curious about the way to these things, so I brought down the 13-inch MacBook Air to compare, and I have to say that they actually feel pretty similar in weight. And the MacBook Pro is a little more compact than the Air. Look at that, it's like a little bit wider because of all that skinny Bezel, I guess. Obviously, the MacBook Pro with Retina Display is a super nice laptop. I'm curious about who the target market is, because frankly, the pro photographers I know were hoping for a 17-inch laptop and not a 13-inch laptop. And also, that price, I mean that's one thing to pay a premium for Apple products, but 1699 as the base, 1999 for, let's be honest, the model that you're gonna want at minimum, the MacBook Air 13-inch and the MacBook Pro 13-inch without retina display start at 1199. That's a crazy premium for a display that frankly is beautiful, but just not that necessary. I'm not saying I'm not gonna totally enjoy using this guy for a couple of weeks and I'm excited to take it home, but I wouldn't pay for it.

3T Stylus 0 Team Seatpost $159.95
A fresh new take on two-bolt.
3T describes its new Stylus 0 Team Seatpost as a 'fresh new take on the two-bolt seatpost.' We fully agree, as the sleek post provides a solid, lightweight pillar for mounting your perch, and it possesses the same classic styling that you've come to expect from 3T.
The new Stylus 0 Team seatpost was constructed from a blend of lightweight and durable carbon fiber and aluminum. For the shaft, 3T used its ultra-stiff carbon fiber. Long a preferred choice for its smooth, damping ride characteristics, 3T's carbon provides you with the ultimate blend of low weight, stiffness, and comfort. Atop the carbon post, 3T added its refined two-bolt alloy head. This new finned clamping interface is where the new post really shines, as 3T spent considerable time getting both the look and functionality just right. The alloy head features a rearward 'swoosh' that was modeled after the classic single-bolt designs of the good ol' days, keeping that traditional aesthetic alive.
The two clamping bolts were placed on either side of the saddle-support cradle, resulting in a secure, stable clamping interface that's easy to adjust. 3T's Stylus 0 models place the seat clamp assembly directly in line with the seatpost for zero setback. 3T's reasoning for this design is that many professional cyclists prefer a neutral positioning in favor of being set back, which allows them to easily get forward on the saddle and down into an aerodynamic position.
The 3T Stylus 0 Team Seatpost is available in 280, 350, and 420mm lengths, with either a 27.2 or 31.6mm diameter. The post comes in either a UD Matte Black finish that features a Red stripe down the length of the post, or a Stealth colorway without the stripe. The post weighs around 195g (31.6mm x 280mm).

Inside E Street
The notion that doctors could one day use embryonic stem cells to treat serious diseases has been controversial ever since the first stem cells were isolated from human embryos in 1998.
With vehement public outcry from both sides of the issue, U.S. presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush struggled to find a policy medium that would quiet the furor. Citing ethical and religious objections to destroying human embryos, Bush banned federal funding for research on stem cells.
On March 9, 2009, President Barack Obama signed an executive order repealing the Bush ban. President Obama cited the importance of scientific research integrity as one of the reasons for his announcement. Shortly after, the first clinical trials involving embryonic stem cell research on humans began at Geron, a revolutionary biotech company. Although the trials were halted for financial reasons, some of the patients who received stem cell transplants are beginning to exhibit positive outcomes. So what exactly does the future hold for stem cell therapy, and should we as a society proceed with its use?
On this episode of Inside E Street, Lark McCarthy is joined by Mahendra Rao, director of the Center for Regenerative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health, for a special talk on the latest innovative findings related to stem cells. We are also joined by David Prentice, of the Family Research Council, and Amy Comstock Rick, CEO of the Parkinson's Action Network, for a panel discussion on another type of cells – so-called iPS cells – and the future of adult stem cell research.
