We must act to preserve the balance! Time is against us.In order to ensure Ahune's success, the cult has established a base near the Dark Portal itself in Draenor. They use ice stones to coordinate the frost lord's arrival. Much as I am loath to do this, the spirits will understand - you must summon one of this Ahune's templar protectors and destroy it. Perhaps this forestalling action will be enough...

Armed with savvy scissor skills and top-notch noggin products from TIGI, Whitney Martin takes pride in transforming everyday head topiaries into fashion-forward model manes. After a consultation to determine a style that will most flatter your face shape, wisps will be whisked into a salon chair and treated to a deep-conditioning treatment, encasing hair in rich moisture and repairing damage done during years of drying it in the toaster. A final style enlivens limp locks, coiling them into curls or straightening them into strands of silk.
Cozy treatment rooms with exposed-brick walls put patrons' minds and bodies at ease in preparation for detailed pampering. Bella Vera Day Spa's talented beauty gurus coddle mugs masterfully during the 45-minute refresher facial, designed to remind cheeks how to best imitate a baby's bottom. A licensed massage therapist alleviates nagging knots during the 60-minute "not so basic" muscle remix, which uses intuitive, free-flowing strokes to foster deep relaxation. Boots burdened with crying tootsies can acquire peace, quiet, and tiny paintings through an indulgence spa pedicure, which buffs away phalange dirt to make digits glow like lint during cosmic bowling.

A wilderness therapy program where teens discover who they are and what they are capable of…
At Trails Carolina, students step into the folds of the Blue Ridge Mountains and away from the overwhelming stimuli of their everyday world. At Trails, an adolescent develops new skills and resources to address the emotional, social, academic or neurological challenges that brought them to our wilderness therapy program. Through the expedition experience, students are empowered. Through academics and equine therapy, students leverage the power of wilderness therapy in other settings – further building their confidence and the ability to sustain change.
Trails is an excellent wilderness therapy program, with individuals throughout the organization who will bend over backwards to help your teen understand the importance of trust, responsibility and accountability while teaching communication skills to both parents and teens to improve family relationships. ~Elaine B.
Throughout this process families are supported and integrated. The commitment to family at Trails is so great that we have dedicated a full team of family therapists and staff to deliver family services through wilderness training and support.
At Trails we have brought together the best from wilderness and evidenced-based therapies to create a wilderness therapy program that is clinically driven and family focused.
Program Highlights:
- Master's level Therapists
- Focus: Intervention & Assessment
- Flexible Lengths of Stay
- Individual & Group Therapy
- Weekly Family Treatment Planning
- Clothing, Gear & Equipment Included

► CRL4Cdt2 promotes PCNA monoubiquitination independent of Rad18 ► In vitro, CRL4Cdt2 monoubiquitinates PCNA at Lys164 the same residue by Rad18 ► CRL4Cdt2 promotes PCNA-dependent translesion DNA synthesis
Monoubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a critical posttranslational modification essential for DNA repair by translesion DNA synthesis (TLS). The Rad18 E3 ubiquitin ligase cooperates with the E2 Rad6 to monoubiquitinate PCNA in response to DNA damage. How PCNA is monoubiquitinated in unperturbed cells and whether this plays a role in the repair of DNA associated with replication is not known. We show that the CRL4Cdt2 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex promotes PCNA monoubiqutination in proliferating cells in the absence of external DNA damage independent of Rad18. PCNA monoubiquitination via CRL4Cdt2 is constitutively antagonized by the action of the ubiquitin-specific protease 1 (USP1). In vitro, CRL4Cdt2 monoubiquitinates PCNA at Lys164, the same residue that is monoubiquitinated by Rad18. Significantly, CRL4Cdt2 is required for TLS in nondamaged cells via a mechanism that is dependent on PCNA monoubiquitination. We propose that CRL4Cdt2 regulates PCNA-dependent TLS associated with stresses accompanying DNA replication.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Chicago White Sox SP Gavin Floyd struggled against the powerful Los Angeles Angels lineup on Saturday, but Chicago managed to keep in the game until the top of the 10th inning, when RP Matt Thornton (L, 4-7) gave up the lead and the Sox lost 6-5.
Floyd lasted 6 and 1/3 innings, but he allowed 5 earned runs on 8 hits, 3 walks and 1 home run, while striking out 6. Meanwhile, 3B Kevin Youkilis went 2 for 3 with a pair of home runs and a walk, and C A.J. Pierzynski managed to crank his 20th homer of the season in his 5 ABs.
The Sox collected a pair of runs off RP LaTroy Hawkins to tie the game at 5-5 in the bottom of the 7th inning, but Thornton allowed a two-out double and single to put Los Angeles up by 1, leading to the 6-5 loss.

55 Merrick Rd. Amityville, NY (631) 608-8627
Brownstones in Amityville used to be just a coffeehouse. Not any more.
Following a remodeling and expansion, the place reopened a few months ago as a proper table-service restaurant. It has a clever design (one wall is done up to resemble the front of a 1930s theater) as well as a full breakfast and lunch menu.
On a recent afternoon, I enjoyed a "panini and soup" combo: a bowl of bright and briny Manhattan clam chowder, along with half of the oddly named (but very good) "flat bread 9th Street Panini" — grill-pressed ciabatta enclosing juicy lemon-herb-grilled chicken breast, Fontina cheese and sauteed broccoli rabe. All that and nicely dressed baby greens, too, for just $7.59. My lunchmate's frittata ($7.49) – eggs baked with diced potatoes, prosciutto, fresh basil and shaved Parmesan – was yet another success. Pancakes seemed ordinary in comparison.
Hours: daily 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Credit cards: Accepted

Person Details
Birth name:
Catherine Ann Keener
March 23, 1959 in Miami, Florida, USA
Oscar and Golden Globe-nominated actress Catherine Keener was a solid force in American independent cinema, where she built up a following in films from directors like Tom DiCillo and Nicole Holofcener during the 1990s. The effortless, naturalistic acting style that landed her roles as wry, likable bohemians and stern, archly observed professionals found wider audiences the following decade with diverse offerings like Spike Jonze's "Being John Malkovich" (2000), Judd Apatow's monster summer comedy "40-Year-Old Virgin" (2005), and the gripping period literary drama "Capote" (2005). For an actress with a dedication to interesting, well-developed female characters, Keener managed to beat the odds and maintain a steady presence in movie theaters as the go-to actress for vanity-free portraits of real women with relatable quirks and foibles.

The Ghosts of AOL Past
AOL's chief executive Tim Armstrong speaks at TechCrunch Disrupt 2012 in New York City. Michael del Castillo

AOL's chief executive Tim Armstrong spoke quite civilly at today's TechCrunch Disrupt—but ghosts of AOL past haunted the stage. Noticeably absent was TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington who was pushed out of the influential tech news site shortly after its acquisition by AOL and his desire to pursue life as a venture capitalist.
Arrington would have been the logical choice to conduct the Arrington interview. After all, he held court at the twice-annual Disrupt conferences. But after last year's awkward exchange between Arrington and Arianna Huffington—herself a new employee to the AOL fold going into last year's Disrupt—this year seemed carefully orchestrated to portray a sense of peace within the company.
TechCrunch reporter Josh Constine ticked off questions about social media and advertising, no doubt with thoughts of last year thick in the air. Near the end, he finally addressed the looming question, "Who do you like more, TechCrunch or Huffington Post?"
"I like them both the same," Armstrong replied.
Arrington founded TechCrunch in June of 2005 and in 2010 sold the company to AOL for $30 million, though he reportedly stayed on "without giving up control" of the company. But things got complicated when Arrington founded CrunchFund, a VC firm funding tech startups, with Armstrong's blessing.
Huffington, like Arrington labored under the assumption that she would keep editorial control when her company, Huffington Post was sold to AOL for $315 million, according to Forbes. To honor her contract she reportedly insisted Arrington be let go to avoid any conflicts of interest between TechCrunch and Crunchfund. Huffington got what she demanded.

Pirate shooters rain on Storm
Published on Wed, Jan 23, 2008 by
Michael Dashiell
Read More
The shots werent falling early, but when they did, it made all the difference.
Sam Flett drained a crucial three-pointer to open the overtime scoring and Krystal Tolliver hit four of Peninsulas eight overtime free throws as the Pirates knocked off division frontrunner Seattle Saturday night 67-59.
It was the second win in as many games for Peninsula against teams theyre chasing in the North Division standings, following a two-point win against Skagit Valley Jan. 16.
Its just a comeback; those teams weve beaten were on the top of our league and we just had to get them at home, said Pirate forward Bethany Holt, who had nine rebounds and three steals in the win against Seattle. I think that this is going to be the start of a long winning streak, hopefully.
It looked far from that with seven minutes remaining, however, as the Pirates saw a 20-20 halftime tie dissolve into a 48-38 Seattle lead with less than seven minutes remaining. But the Pirates, keyed by a full-court press, a timely three-pointer from Brianna Allen, a three-point shot-and-free throw from Tolliver and strong inside play from Brittany Bridges, pulled Peninsula to a 54-54 tie.
Bridges offensive rebound and pair of free throws gave the Pirates a 56-54 lead, but Seattles Chiaki Nakamura tied the game with 25 seconds to play. Neither team could get a decent shot off in regulation.
After Flett hit her three-pointer, Seattle simply went cold, missing a barrage of shots, sinking just one field goal and one free throw. Meanwhile Tolliver, a 5-foot-4 freshman guard from Lathrop, Calif., buried all four of her free throws and kept the Storm on their toes with her quick drives to the hoop.
Shes been hurt, Holt said of her teammate, noting Tollivers knee injury. Shes got to get back (up) to the speed. Shes probably one of the quickest players on her team.
Despite some poor shooting 21-of-65 for the game, or 32-percent the Pirates managed to force enough turnovers and get solid scoring (21 points) and rebounding (13 boards overall, five offensive) from Bridges to stay close.
And when it counted, Fletts long-range bomb changed the game and the Pirates iced it with patience and free throws.
Kayla Bennett and Amber Hering had 19 points and 11 rebounds each to lead Seattle.
Tolliver finished with 11 points while Flett had nine. Seattle held top Peninsula scorer Kathleen Wilson to eight points.
I think the younger girls are starting to mature a whole lot, Holt said. Theyre starting to understand that the speed of the game is a lot different than high school. So were starting to come together.
Peninsula is back in action at Everett Jan. 23 and to host Edmonds Jan. 26.
Holt layup gives P.C. women a win
In a game full of high drama, could it end any other way?
Holt hit a last-second layup with the clock winding down to help Peninsula beat Skagit Valley 63-61 in Port Angeles Jan. 16, giving the Pirates their second win in conference play.
Skagit Valley came into the game with an 11-4 mark and with six votes in the newest Horizon Air coaches poll.
It was just a heck of a game for our girls, Peninsula coach Tiffany Darling said. They just came out and battled.
Peninsula saw a 10-point first-half lead dissolve into a nine-point deficit with two minutes to go before mounting a dramatic comeback, culminating with Allens three-pointer with 12 seconds on the clock.
Skagit Valley had a chance to win the game but Peninsulas Bridges collected an errant Cardinals shot and threw an outlet pass over the outstretched arms of a Skagit defender to Holt, who banked in the winner.
Holt finished with eight points and a team-high eight steals while Britney Yamane led the team with 14 points. Flett posted an overall solid contest with 13 points, seven rebounds, nine assists and three steals.
Wilson added 10 points.
Jessica Takara led Skagit Valley with 14 points.
Coming off two poor shooting contests, the Pirates were moderately better from the field, hitting 24-of-63 (38 percent). Furthermore, Bridges the Pirates top post player struggled to the tune of four points, hitting two of nine field goal attempts.
But the Pirates hit their shots when it counted and got three-point shots from five different players, including Allens second long-range shot of the season.
Im so proud and happy for our kids, Darling said. Weve endured a lot of injuries this season. (Were) finding a way to win. It was a huge, monster upset for us.
The Cardinals poor free-throw shooting (1-of-6 in the second half) didnt help the visiting squad.

War weary Vampire FB.9 from the Rhodesian Air Force, showing its armament during open house at New Sarum Air Force Base.
The Rhodesian Air Force acquired 16 Vampire FB.9 fighters and a further 16 Vampire FB11 trainers in the early 1950s, its first jet aircraft, equipping two squadrons. These were regularly deployed to Aden between 1957 and 1961, supporting British counter-insurgency operations. 21 more two seaters and 13 single seaters were supplied by South Africa in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Rhodesia operated Vampires until the end of the bush war in 1979. They were eventually replaced by the BAe Hawk 60 in the early 1980s. After 30 years service, they were the last Vampires used on operations anywhere in the world.
The FB.MK 9 was a "tropicalized" Vampire modified for the rigors of high-temperature operations and included a cockpit air conditioner. De Havilland completed production of some 326 of these aircraft.

East Rutherford trash pickup changes; DPW looks to enforce recycling
New trash routes may begin March 4, and property owners will receive letters explaining the changes next week, borough officials said. The route change is the latest development set to help the DPW increase efficiency and save money, borough officials noted.
"We're going to cut the town in half and do the west side on Tuesday/Friday, east side on Monday/Thursday," said Paul DeRosa, DPW Superintendent. "This makes it more efficient for us and less confusing for residents."
The confusion yielded many calls to the DPW. For example, the DPW did one part of Carlton Avenue one day and another side of Carlton Avenue on other day. "We were bouncing around everywhere," DeRosa said.
The following route changes are planned:
Monday and Thursday changes to Tuesday and Friday on West end: Willow Wood Court, Franklin and Union places, Spring and John streets, Cottage Place, Rose, John, Wall, New, Elm, Grant, Hope, Union, York streets, Locust Lane, the north side of Carlton Avenue and Paterson Avenue (from Franklin to 3-Point on the Wast End).
Tuesday and Friday changes to Monday and Thursday on East End: Central, Randolph and Paterson avenues, Clinton, Washington and Laurel places, Humboldt, Uhland, Grove, Mozart, Herman and Main streets, Windsor and Hoboken roads.
"The DPW staff, several councilmen and I looked over the trash collection routes that have been in existence for several years and we believe that we can improve trash collections efficiency by making the garbage routes more compact," said Councilman Thomas Banca, chairman of the Public Works Committee. "It doesn't make sense for garbage collection teams to be picking up trash on one side of the street and come back a day later and do the opposite side of the street," he added.
The trash and recycling pickup changes used to be east and west sides on separate days, but now will be both east and west on same days in certain areas. "The detailed changes will be sent out in a letter to homes that we are working on," said Banca.
Smaller containers
Some residents are still getting used to other trash collection changes, particularly the smaller garbage container requirement that went into effect this year. The DPW no longer picks up trash from containers over 50 pounds, citing too many injuries from workers lifting 96 gallon garbage containers. DPW workers will not picking up containers over 50 pounds and instead be placing an orange sticker on the container.

Stormtroopers Root For The Winning Team
Maybe stormtroopers aren't as foolish as I first thought, fighting for the dark side and all. Seen here is a trooper taking a break from the traditional all white uniform to don a Giants inspired one at the recent Super Bowl. Apparently he picked the right team to fight for this time. Good for him. No word on how many cheerleaders he got to slay after the game, but my guess is between zero and none. But still, cool costume.
Thanks to Bas, whose friend actually took this picture, for the awesome tip. Bas, by the way, has been known to take cheerleaders from both teams home after a game, because he's that cool.
Want to make your own low-cost Stormtrooper helmet? All it takes is a couple milk jugs, some glue, paint and absolutely zero interest in winning this year's costume contest. "Dude -- WTF are you even supposed to be -- you look like an albino hippo". Your girlfriend does! "I... / Continue →

Chamois or shammy — call it what you want, but these drying cloths are just what you need to finish your washdown routine. Originally made from oil-tanned goat or sheep skin, these leather "cloths" are increasingly hard to find, so we decided to take a look at synthetics. We cut all the samples to the same size and measured the amount of water absorbed, as well as checked for drying and streaking.
Griot's Synthetic Chamois Model 15400
The Wet: A dimpled synthetic towel, this product soaked up the most water and left the test surface almost dry. A second quick wipe did the job admirably (absorbed 17 ounces).
The Dry: Dries stiff and crunchy, much like the original leather product.

"Hard" math made easy
"Insights into Math Concepts" was developed to maximize the use of math manipulatives and to bridge the gap between the concrete and the abstract. Rather than focusing on calculations, exercises solidify and extend concepts through series of short, thought-provoking exercises. By building math intuition and number sense, the program makes "hard math" become easy.
- Designed by an experienced Montessori teacher
- Maximizes hands-on mathematics apparatus
- Encourages critical thinking skills
- Easy to implement and monitor
- Requires little teacher direction
- Addresses state standards
- Individual tracking system
- A favorite of children
Exercises have a simple, uncluttered format. Most students find the steady progression through the various exercises rewarding and motivating. Inviting success and confidence, the material soon nudges them into concepts normally considered quite challenging.

Feature Extraction
In General
Now that the image is in the format of the database (28 x 28 grayscale), a method to match the image to the database must be explored. To achieve a high accuracy rate in matching from the database, a feature extraction method could be employed. Three methods will be explored: pixel matching, Principle Component Analysis (PCA), and two-dimensional Fast Fourier Transform (2D FFT).
Pixel Matching
Pixel matching, the first method, is not to use any feature extraction. It is meant to match the image to the database in the most obvious manner. The identifier literally compares the images pixel by pixel and computes the mean squared error (MSE, sums up all the error). In fact, the following two methods employ pixel matching after the transforms.
PCA Principle Component Analysis
Next, the Principle Component Analysis, employs an orthogonal linear transformation that transform the matrix to a new matrix such that the greatest variance of the projection of the data comes to the first coordinate (principle component), and the second highest variance to the second coordinate, and so on. For our purposes of matching the image from the database, the PCA actually performs very poorly. This is due to the fact that because the images so closely resemble each other (same variance). This similar variance is attributed to it being so small (28 x 28) and gray scale. As a result, the PCA transform of the images are almost identical for this specific database. Experimentally, roughly a 30% matching rate was observed, which is barely better than random guessing. PCA would be much better suited for large images with great variances.
Last, our method of choice, is the two-dimensional Fast Fourier Transform. Recall that the FFT is a form of Discrete Fourier Transform. The 2D FFT, for our purpose of image extraction, is the a frequency representation of the images. Note that the magnitude of the FFT must be used to compute the MSE. Also, the Matlab fftshift command was used shift the high frequency to the center.
In General
Once the input images are transformed, they are now ready to be matched and identified by the images in the database. Three algorithms can be used: a) finding the lowest MSE, b) finding the best averaged MSE, and c) finding the highest frequency digit from the best one hundred MSE.
Absolute Nearest Neighbor
The first algorithm finds the database image that has the lowest MSE from the input image out of all the randomly selected database images and declares that the input image is the digit the matched database image represents. In other words, it is an absolute nearest neighbor approach. The accuracy of this method depends heavily on the number of randomly selected database images since the bigger the database to choose from, the higher the chance that there will be a perfect match.
Averaging Database Per Digit
Another algorithm that could be used is to average all of the MSE's of the database of one digit with a input digit,and declare the digit with the lowest average as the input's digit. This method, in theory, should eliminate the chance picking an outlier.
Majority of Nearest Neighbors
Finally, the last algorithm is a variation of the aforementioned minimum MSE approach. This method picks the one hundred lowest MSE's observed from the selected database and tallies the frequency of digits represented and declares the highest frequency digit is the input's digit. In other words, it is finding the digit with the most nearest neighbors. In theory, this approach should be more associated with finding common features since higher frequency of certain digit means shared characteristics. A drawback of this method could come from a particularly poor input (say a 3 that looks awfully like an 8), there is a possibly of "tying" since the digits are separated by integers.

So So Def: Record Exec Todd Moscowitz Drops $4.56 M. on West Village Condo
Over the years, record executive Todd Moscowitz has held a number of bold-faced titles at some of the music industry's largest companies. He has been head of Russell Simmons' Rush Communications, served as general manager of Def Jam Records and as CEO of Warner Brother Records. In a 1998 New York Times article chronicling New Year's revelry on the island of St. Bart's, Mr. Moscowitz, then 28, appears beside personalities including Mr. Simmons, Olivier Picasso, Anna Wintour and a young man known at the time as Sean "Puffy" Combs. But more recently, he has focused his attentions—together with fellow Def Jam and Warner alum Lyor Cohen—on a label dubbed 300, after the film of the same title and oriented, like the movie's badly-outnumbered Spartans, toward doing more with less. That impulse can be detected, too, in Mr. Moscowitz's latest real estate transaction, which, The Observer has learned, involves the acquisition of a three-bedroom condo at 345 West 13th Street, for the price of $4.56 million.

My site had authority ranking for more than two years now and I lost the rankings (sitewide), 2-10 places down on 19th January 2012.
My site has a blog layout, 70px header, main content (650px) on the left and two sidebars on the right. I had 336 unit (above the fold) in main content area, float to the right side. And in one sidebar, two 160 units.
Is that a lot of advertisement?
I now replaced 336 unit with a 300 one, and on many inner pages removed the 336 block. Google hasn't crawled my site since the changes were made. Should I be removing more ads, I already see a decline in CTR.
Also, does Google penalize specific pages or the whole site?
