There has actually been some talk about getting Matthew McConaughey for the role, but nothing firm yet.
I'm actually rereading the series right now as I was given a couple books from the newest series and wanted to go back and reread them from the beginning. I should be done sometime next year I think. LOL

Summerville teams open tournament with victories
Summerville teams are faring well this week in the South Carolina Dixie Youth Baseball playoffs.
Parks Field American and Carolina League all-star teams opened the 2013 AAA Minors (Age 9-10) District 7 Sub District A Tournament Wednesday with a win.
The tournament is scheduled to run through this weekend at the Carolina League/Alston Middle School fields. Admission is $5.
Action began with a game between Moncks Corner and Parks Field American. Moncks Corner jumped out to a 4-2 lead, but Parks rallied to earn a 6-5 win.
In the top of the fifth inning, Walker Richardson doubled to drive in two runs and tie the game at 4. Parks took the lead off a single by Heston Foster that plated Richardson. Kade Kuskey then doubled top drive in Foster for a 6-4 Parks' advantage entering the bottom of the frame.
Moncks Corner's Sean Ward reached base on a fielder's choice and cut the lead to a run with some aggressive base running, stealing second and coming home on a pair of throwing errors.
However, Parks starter Dalton Godin closed the game out by getting the first batter in the bottom half of final inning to ground out and then striking out the next two batters.
The Carolina League team opened the tournament with a 2-0 win over Bonneau.
Carolina loaded the bases in the bottom of the third off an error, a bunt single by Demani Green and a walk. Another base on balls then pushed Alex Hagood across and Terrance Geddis singled to drive in Green for the 2-0 margin.
Twan Moses went the distance on the mound to pick up the pitching win.
The winner of the tournament as well as the runner-up will advance to the District 7 championship tournament scheduled for July 8-13 at Pepperhill. The district tournament will also feature the winner and runner-up of the Sub District B tournament being held June 27-29 at Park Circle. Teams at that site vying for the berths to the District 7 tournament include Parks Field National, Ladson Youth, Park Circle and Hanahan.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 6
Rated 5 out of 5 by nsoutdoors Buck Trio
I spend a lot of time in the Northern Canadian bush and small pocket knives like he stockman have proved more then essential backpacking the deep woods. I personally carry an Enzo Tapper and a Buck Trio as my main knives while in the field. Although nothing will replace a solid fixed blade, I find myself using the Buck Trio a lot more then any other knife. The fit and finish is great, edge retention is acceptable and the size is perfect for edc and just the right size for detail work that my Enzo is just too wide to do.
I've carried this knife for about 2 years and only when I know a knife is as tough as I need it to be will I recommend it or give it as gifts. All my hunting and fishing buddies will have a new Buck for the up coming seasons.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DSBU Great Knife for the Money
I was very skeptical to purchase a Chinese made Buck knife. Curiosity got the best of me, and I made the purchase. I have dozens of knives, and almost always buy US or Japanese made knives. I have been pretty rough on this knife and it has held up. The steel holds a very sharp edge, and it has yet to show any signs of dulling. 420HC steel is not exactly the highest quality, but I am very surprised at how well this knife has performed. If you need a good knife at a very reasonable price, try this out!

Case summary:
A 67-year-old woman presents to the emergency room complaining of shortness of breath, chest pain, and a cold, painful left arm two weeks after undergoing a right total hip replacement. She had no previous history of cardiothoracic disease. On physical examination, the patient was tachycardic at a rate of 110 and tachypneic at a rate of 30. The woman's left arm was cold to the touch and her pulses were decreased on the left side compared to the right. Initial po2 on room air was 41%. Chest x-ray and ECG on admission were within normal limits.
Paradoxical embolism.
There was strong clinical concern for a pulmonary embolism, as well as an arterial embolism, and the patient was sent for a pulmonary arteriogram. Initially, it was difficult to pass the catheter tip into the pulmonary artery, as the catheter tip preferentially entered the left pulmonary vein (figure 1). Contrast was injected into the right atrium and a communication between the right and left atrium (patent foramen ovale) was demonstrated (figure 2). The patient had no documented history of atrial septal defect. Pulmonary arterial pressures measured 42/20 mm Hg. Pulmonary arteriogram revealed multiple pulmonary emboli within the left upper and lower lobes (figure 3).
Using the right femoral artery approach, subselective catheterization of the left brachial artery was performed. Arteriogram demonstrated complete occlusion of the left brachial artery with a clot extending into the forearm (figure 4). The ulnar artery filled at the wrist. Urokinase therapy was not started due to the patient's recent postoperative status. An inferior vena cava filter was placed, and the patient was placed on heparin and subsequent coumadin therapy. Anticoagulation therapy resulted in complete resolution of her pulmonary and left upper extremity symptoms.
Paradoxical embolism, first described in 1877 by Connheim,1 refers to the passage of venous thrombus into the systemic circulation through a right-to-left shunt. Several conditions must be met in order to make the diagnosis of paradoxical embolism, including the presence of venous thrombus; an abnormal communication between the right and left circulation; a favorable pressure gradient to promote a right-to-left shunt; and clinical, angiographic, or pathologic evidence for systemic embolism.2 A "proved" case of paradoxical embolism is defined as one in which a venous thrombus is found trapped in an intracardiac defect during echocardiography or at autopsy.3 Prior to 1980, very few "proved" cases were documented in living patients. In the early 1980s, however, non-
invasve maneuvers performed during echocardiography became useful for defining a patent foramen ovale in patients with suspected paradoxical embolism.4-6 This led to an increase in the number of "proved" cases, although proving the diagnosis of paradoxical embolism during a patient's life remains a diagnostic challenge. A "presumptive" diagnosis during life can be made when the aforementioned conditions are met and when there is a favorable temporal relationship between pulmonary and systemic emboli.
The diagnosis of paradoxical embolus should be considered in any postoperative patient who has an unexpected arterial embolism.7 Risk factors are identical to those for pulmonary embolus. In order for a venous thrombus to cross a patent foramen ovale, a right-to-left pressure gradient must exist. Elevation of right atrial pressure may be secondary to a chronic condition such as chronic obstructive lung disease with cor pulmonale, tricuspid valve disease, or primary pulmonary hypertension.7 More commonly though, elevated right atrial pressures are secondary to an acute process such as substantial pulmonary embolism with acute right ventricular and atrial hypertension.7 The valsalva maneuver also has been shown to cause a sudden rise in right sided pressures.
A presumptive diagnosis of paradoxical embolism was made in this patient based on the temporal relationship between her pulmonary and systemic emboli without an evident cardiac or systemic source for the arterial embolus.7 Although this entity is uncommon, it should be included in the differential diagnosis of arterial embolism of which there is no obvious source.

Keep the sun, and prying eyes, off your laptop screen
Putting one of these laptop shades on your computer might make it look like an old-school microfiche reader from the mustiest corner of your local public library, but I think it could actually serve a useful purpose. Any laptop owner knows that toting your Vaio or MacBook outside is borderline impossible because the glare from the sun renders the screen unreadable. This add-on, called CompuShade, attaches to the top of your laptop and can be unfolded when you're outside and want to block the glare out.

VERSAILLES, Ohio (Jan. 16, 2012)—House's Butchering, LLC. is voluntarily recalling 444 pounds of sliced bacon and 55 pounds of summer sausage due to the product being misbranded and packaged without a food safety plan. The products were sold from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012. There have been no illnesses or complaints reported.
Products involved in this recall include "Pork Bacon Thick Sliced" in approximately 1lb packages and "Beef Summer Sausage" in approximately 1.5lb packages. The label will contain 'House's Custom Butchering' on the address line and the label will have the ODA mark of inspection and Est. 54 will be within the symbol outline of Ohio. These products may also contain a five digit code, if present, the code will begin with '12' (range: 12001 through 12366) on the label and would have been purchased directly from House's Butchering meat market only.
Routine meat inspection services provided by the Ohio Department of Agriculture shows these products may be adulterated due to the fact they were produced without the benefit of inspection. Additionally, the product is considered misbranded due to House's not having a HACCP plan to re-package bulk bacon and summer sausage purchased from federally inspected establishments.
House's urges their customers who have purchased the suspect products not to eat them and return them to the company. Customers may bring those designated packages to House's Butchering, LLC. 6442 Beamsville Webster Rd. Versailles, Ohio 45380 or contact Dan Whittington at 937-548-7583.

Simple question, ran a search and could not find an answer. What is the difference between these two models, if any?
There are a few thread around about this. But the difference's are the -100 has a digital coaxial connection and a 2nd ethernet port that will probably never be used. The -700 RF antenna is internal and the -100 is external. The -700 gets it's software updates first but they will probably change at some point and they will probably get them at the same time at some point. Other then that they work the same.

- Tightwire is the art of maintaining balance while walking along a tensioned wire between two points. It can be done either using a balancing tool (umbrella, fan, balance pole, etc.) or "freehand", using only one's body to maintain balance. Typically, tightwire performances will fall into one of two distinct types of acts: dance/movement or object manipulation. It is common for tightwire artists to include a variety of props in their acts, such as clubs or rings, hats or canes in order to help them maintain their balance. Other artists will take props onto the wire in order to enhance the entertainment value. These often include juggling clubs, spinning plates, wheelbarrows with passengers, ladders, pets and children.
- Highwire is the same as tight wire but at much greater height. Although there is no official height when tight wire becomes high wire, generally a wire over twenty feet high will be regarded as a high wire act. Traditionally, the difference is in style of performance.
- Slackwire is when the tension on the wire is mainly provided by the load, i.e. the performer and props. The difference is that to balance on a tight wire the performer must keep his centre of mass above his feet, while on a slack wire he moves the wire with his balance to under his centre of mass. Without the wire under your centre it wobbles.[clarification needed]
- Skywalk is a form somewhat akin to highwire, but generally defined by its length and height, often taking place outdoors at great heights, often between skyscrapers, gorges, mountains or other natural and man-made landscapes.
- Slacklining is a balance sport which utilizes nylon webbing stretched tight between two anchor points. Slacklining is distinct from tightrope walking in that the line is not held rigidly taut; it is instead dynamic, stretching and bouncing like a long and narrow trampoline.
- Freestyle slacklining (a.k.a. "rodeo slacklining") is the art and practice of cultivating balance on a piece of rope or webbing draped slack between two anchor points, typically about 15 to 30 feet (9.1 m) long and a couple feet off the ground in the centre. This type of slackline provides a wide array of opportunities for both swinging and static maneuvers. A freestyle slackline has little tension in it (relative to the weight of the performer,) while both traditional slacklines and tightropes are tensioned. The slackness in the rope or webbing allows it to swing at large amplitudes and adds a different dynamic to the art.
- Funambule (French)
- Jultagi (Korean)
Acrobats maintain their balance by positioning their centre of mass directly over their base of support, i.e. shifting most of their weight over their legs, arms or whatever part of their body they are using to hold them up. When they are on the ground with their feet side by side, the base of support is wide in the lateral direction but narrow in the sagittal (back-to-front) direction. In the case of highwire-walkers, their feet are parallel with each other, one foot positioned in front of the other while on the wire. Therefore, a tightwire walker's sway is side to side, their lateral support having been drastically reduced. In both cases, whether side by side or parallel, the ankle is the pivot point.
A wire-walker may use a pole for balance or may stretch out his arms perpendicular to his trunk in the manner of a pole. This technique provides several advantages. It distributes mass away from the pivot point, thereby increasing the moment of inertia. This reduces angular acceleration because a greater force is required to rotate the performer over the wire. The result is less tipping. In addition the performer can also correct sway by rotating the pole. This will create an equal and opposite torque on the body.
Tightwire-walkers typically perform in very thin and flexible, leather-soled slippers with a full length suede or leather sole to protect the feet from abrasions and bruises while still allowing the foot to curve around the wire. Though very infrequent in performance, amateur, hobbyist, or inexperienced funambulists will often walk barefoot so that the wire can be grasped between the big and second toe. This is more often done when using a rope, as the softer and silkier fibres are less taxing on the bare foot than the harder and more abrasive braided wire.

Metaphorical use[edit]
The word funambulism or the phrase "walking a tightrope" is also used in a metaphorical setting not referring to any actual acrobatic acts. For instance, politicians are said to "walk a tightrope" when trying to balance two opposing views with little room for compromise. The term can also be used in satirical or acidic contexts. Nicholas Taleb uses the phrase in his book Black Swan. "You get respect for doing funambulism or spectator sports". Taleb is criticising scientists who prefer popularism to vigorous research and those who walk a fixed and narrow path rather than explore a large field of empirical study. [5]

Williamsport's track and field athletes were like polar bears Friday at the Clear Spring Invitational.In the frigid conditions, they were at the top of the food chain, convincingly sweeping the team titles in the outdoor season opener.
The Williamsport girls outscored runner-up Berkeley Springs 176 to 107.5, while the Williamsport boys racked up a whopping 223 points, more than doubling the output of second-place Mountain Ridge (82).
"The kids showed a little toughness today," Williamsport coach John Bailey said. "For as cold as it is, they did real well today — some good early-season performances. But we still have a lot of work to do. Most of these schools don't have indoor track, so we're at a little advantage there."
Williamsport's Evan Hardy picked up Friday where he left off last month indoors as a two-time Maryland Class 1A state champion.
Hardy easily won the 1,600-meter run in 4:32.41 and then came back to win the 800 in 2:04.65.
"I like the cold," he said. "It seems like the cold makes my heart rate go faster, or something like that. It just feels good.
"It's a good start to the season. ... I don't plan on slowing down."
The Williamsport boys also got individual victories from Collin Linton in the 100 (11.52) and 200 (24.63), Chima Ezidinma in the high jump (5 feet, 10 inches) and triple jump (36-8 1/2) and Cody Grams in the 3,200 (10:25.48).
"I came prepared," Linton said. "I dressed warmly and warmed up a half-hour before each event."
He was more than ready to go when the gun fired.
"I ran a lot faster than I thought I would. The fastest I ran all last season in the 100 was 11.82," Linton said. "I'm just really excited for the season. I've trained really hard, and I just want to get faster."
The Williamsport girls got victories from Megan Suder in the 100 (13.60), Lauren Johnson in the 200 (27.81), Kaelii Stout in the 800 (2:39.47), Tori Boward in the 1,600 (6:04.46), Andrea Nunnally in the 100 hurdles (17.44), Stacey Christy in the high jump (4-8) and Kaitlin Bailey in the pole vault (6-6).
The Williamsport boys and girls also prevailed in every relay — 4x100, 4x200, 4x400 and 4x800.
Devin Repp and Cayla Garner were winners for host Clear Spring. Repp won the 400 in 52.35 and the long jump at 19-0, while Garner, Repp's girlfriend, won the same two events — the 400 in 1:06.72 and the long jump at 14-3 1/2.
"I coach her, just kidding," Repp said.
"No, the other way around," Garner said.
They were the first victories of Garner's career.
"I was surprised," she said. "I didn't expect to win anything today. I just wanted to place in the top three."

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Dear Cindy,
I am a doubles tennis player and know that winning is part physical and part mental. I feel I have a great partner and that our skills are proficient enough to win matches. But we've had bad tournament results because one or both of us not handling the pressure on the court. We bash ourselves when we don't play well or miss a shot. Then we're distracted and play goes downhill. How can we stop the negative self-talk and concentrate only on the physical game? -- Tim
Dear Tim,
You can't just concentrate solely on the physical part of any sport because the mental side is woven into every point. Success, whether it's a team sport or a solitary one, will most often go to those who combine solid physical skills with a durable outer shell. This outer shell acts as an emotional thermostat and keeps the heat down to a nice comfortable level.
No, no, no!
Self-bashing can have a huge effect on a person's ability to play their best. Those who know how to win will tell you they have learned how to stay calm yet aggressive during competition. Being able to embrace both is what enables an athlete to maintain fluid strokes yet stay keenly focused.
Once a player starts a conversation inside his head, his game will suffer. As you said, half the battle is mastering the mental game, which in a sense means not thinking about it during a match. Experience is one way to mature on the court. In tennis, mental toughness is equal to an ace every now and then just when we need it and, believe me, we always need it. Based on your question, you may be able to identify with the scenario below.
A day on the court

Use Armoflex.
Are there foam insulation tubes that melt onto the copper pipes? I do not want this to happen. I have a boiler with several feet of exposed 3/4" tubing in the basement and am trying to find the best way to do it.
Thanks for any replies!
"Any American who is prepared to run for President should automatically, by definition, be disqualified from ever doing so."
Gore Vidal.
Use Armoflex.
I've insulated my boiler lines with the grey foam insulating tubes from Home Depot. (1/2", 3'4", and 1" lines.) They've been there, unmelted, for nearly 15 years. The temp of those lines never gets above 180, even those coming right out of the boiler.
The box-store stuff typically only comes in 3/8" wall (~R2) varieties. It's better than nuthin', but 3/4"-1" wall thickness stuff is "worth it" for temps over 130F. Even the cheap stuff can handle temps up to 160-180F, but over 200F a lot of it starts to break down. If you can't find it locally find it online. Grainger sells a pretty good selection, if nobody else in your neigborhood does. Some Ace Hardware stores carry 3/4"-wall stuff.
I'm not saying that insulating is a bad thing and in some locals it is the code. But the truth of the matter is that in an average basement, when you run the numbers, insulating the pipes would take a few hundred years to pay itself back.
If there is ever a fire in the house the foam insulation will produce toxic smoke when burned. Fiberglass insulation will not burn.

It's About Time: A Bacon Of The Month Club
Hell yeah a bacon of the month club. Truthfully, I only thought there was one kind of bacon (delicious), but what do I know? I'm just a man who has all his meals prepared for him by a non-robotic bartender. Anyway, for a staggering $315 you can join the Grateful Palate BOTM Club and get:
- A different artisan bacon delivered to your door each month for 12 months- Informative notes on all bacon selections
- Discounts on The Grateful Palate bacon products and bacons

The best efficiency will be at 8R load impedance on each channel in SE mode or 16R in BTL mode. but the output power will be lower. If the speakers are used for bass only, i recommend to drive the amplifier one channel out of phase to reduce the pumping effect or use the amp in BTL mode, and speakers connected in series across the outputs of the amplifier. you can connect them in parallel too, but due to the low impedance the amp will enter in overcurrent limit at high output.

DA-1 or alternative
Hello Christi!
I am interested in refitting an already existing Class D amp based on two UcD 180 ST modules with one (stereo) or two of your modules. The amp powers two of those: ADM Mystery PA Center, and the UcD are not capable of running the speakers at very (very!) high volume. I have my eyes on the DA-1, but please correct me if another module would be better suited. Goals: - Stereo amplifier with more than 200 W per channel at 8 ohms - At least the same sound quality than with the UcD ST modules If the DA-1 really would be the best bet for me, what of your SMPS modules would be the best fit (running with the maximul possible voltage of 72V)? Thank you for your answers, Arndt

All three modules are based on IRS2092 ic with some differences. The IRS2092 modular amplifier Connexelectronic features speaker protection circuit with on-board rely, and is mounted on a 64x100x18mm heatsink, the total height is ~30mm up to 38mm, and it can be installed into 1RU unit.
CxD400 module Connexelectronic has smaller footprint, 50mm wide, 100mm long and ~30mm tall, does not have on board speaker protection circuit, but has balanced input, complete protection set (under-votlage, over-voltage, over-temperature, over-current) and requires only one differential voltage. the output power is scalable depending on the supply voltage and if instead the two small heatsinks, on heatslug is used, the output power can be higher, up to 600W on 4R with proper cooling. CxD300-8R uses the very popular IRFI4020 for up to 300W on 8R or IRFI4019 for up to 200W on 8R dual transistor. the board size is just 35x95mm, and is probably the smallest board available, with the best price performance ratio. Please contact me by mail for further discussions.

Add/View Comments (0)Darwin's enduring finches
Nigel Williams
- Small, unassuming birds in the Galápagos islands proved to be a linchpin in Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection and they are still a source of new insights for researchers. Nigel Williams reports.
Main Text
"The curious fact is the perfect gradation in the size of the beaks in the different species of Geospiza, from one as large as that of a hawfinch to that of a chaffinch, and… even to that of a warbler… Seeing this gradation and diversity of structure in one small, intimately related group of birds, one might really fancy that from an original paucity of birds in this archipelago, one species has been taken and modified for different ends."
This is what Darwin wrote in 1839, as he contemplated the evolution of the Galápagos finches named after him as he gathered growing evidence of natural selection.
But the potential insight took some time. As Kenneth Petren, at the University of Cincinnati, and colleagues write in a paper in a special issue of the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society published last month (online), Charles Darwin was not impressed by the Galápagos finches during the Beagle's visit during 1835. While he was appreciating the island forms of the mockingbirds, "he overlooked the task of recording which islands most of his finch specimens came from".
Darwin thought the Galápagos finches were formed by perhaps five separate colonisations of very different-looking mainland taxa. It was not until some time later that John Gould informed him that all were finches and they were closely related to each other.
"There are some indications that Darwin wanted to use the finches as an example in his Origin of Species because he felt sure that they would support the pattern of different forms occurring on different islands, yet he was uncertain that his reconstructions of island origins were accurate, and the resulting patterns did not present a strong case for natural selection."
While Darwin may have initially had doubts, the birds came to be a symbol of natural selection and are celebrated in the new journal issue as a continuing source of evolutionary insight.
Arkhat Abzhanov, at Harvard University, introduced the series of papers based on the continuing study of Darwin's finches, commissioned to celebrate the double Darwin anniversary last year.
While well known for their different-shaped beaks to allow handling of different foods, one feature of their biology that is often overlooked is the range of behavioural adaptations these birds display while searching for their food. Ground finches explore the soil and large rocks for seeds, cactus finches penetrate cactus flowers and fruits with their pointed beaks, warbler finches probe leaves of trees and bushes for small arthropods, and sharp-beaked finches peck on the feather buds to drink blood from boobies or crack their eggs by pushing them over rocks. And woodpecker finches will make a tool from a twig or branch to remove an insect larva from a crevice in tree bark when they are unable to reach it with their beak.
While many papers highlight the bird's continuing interest to evolutionary biologists, others highlight the environmental threat to the birds. The paper by Kenneth Petren, Peter and Rosemary Grant at Harvard, and Andrew Clack and Ninnia Lescano at Princeton is the first to report a genetic analysis of specimens collected by Charles Darwin and his shipmates on the voyage of the HMS Beagle. The authors used modern genetic tools, such as cloning and sequencing ancient DNA and multilocus microsatellite markers, to genotype modern and historical finch samples and populations from the Galápagos, to investigate the loss of diversity in this island ecosystem since the visit of Darwin in 1835.
The study revealed that much more biodiversity has been lost in the Galápagos than was previously acknowledged, despite the fact that these island habitats are considered to be amongst the least influenced by humans owing to a relatively late exploration and low settlement activity.
Despite the apparent loss of several island populations of Darwin's finches, none of the species has gone extinct. However, in recent years, owing to a combination of increased human activity, habitat loss and invasion by introduced species, the mangrove finch is now on the brink of extinction, with a total population of around 100 individuals, and is among the rarest birds on the planet. A paper by Birgit Fessl at the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust and the Charles Darwin Foundation in the Galápagos, along with colleagues at the Universities of Bath, Vienna and the Zoological Park in San José, Costa Rica, provides new quantitative information on this species in the context of conservation efforts and new techniques. The mangrove finch is low in numbers in all the small patches of mangrove it inhabits and its existence is threatened by rats and parasitic flies at almost all sites. Using software for population projection analysis, the team show just how vulnerable the populations are under current levels of predation, and how this could be useful for planning effective conservation of this and other species.
The paper by Jeffrey Podos at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, examined whether members of the medium ground finch Geospiza fortis population at a particular location called El Garraptero on Santa Cruz Island, discriminate between two beak-size morphs based on song alone, and also they tested whether these birds can discriminate the songs of local and distant (24 km away) singers of the same species.
The first question is of interest, as these two morphs are known to mate assortatively and thus may provide a good model for studying the formation of species boundaries through sympatric differentiation. Podos provides evidence that they respond differently to local songs produced by different morphs but do not discriminate between small-morph songs recorded from different locations, counter to the results of a previous playback study in which local and distant songs elicited different responses.
The higher significance of the morph of the singing male than the location where the song was produced thus supports the hypothesis that song in Darwin's finches can serve as a behavioural mechanism for assortative mating and sympatric evolutionary divergence.
A paper by Peter and Rosemary Grant, veterans of Darwin's finch research and authors of a new book, How and Why Species Multiply∗, provides an intriguing look at the pattern of gene flow between species of Darwin's finches on Daphne Major Island, as well as gene flow owing to immigration of conspecifics and heterospecifics. The main result, that gene flow from the heterospecifics appears to be higher than the gene flow from the conspecifics on different islands, challenges usual conceptions regarding species boundaries and the role of gene flow in keeping populations of the same species cohesive and populations of different species separate.
"Darwin's finches continue to be a very valuable source of biological discovery. Certain advantages of studying this group allow further breakthroughs in our understanding of changes in recent island biodiversity, mechanisms of speciation and hybridisation, evolution of cognitive behaviours… as well as the underlying developmental genetic mechanisms in generating morphological diversity," writes Abzhanov.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. —
The weather in February recently has been beneficial to Tulips, as is evident at the bountiful bunch that are blooming in San Francisco at Pier 39's annual 'Tulipmania'.
The pier has been importing bulbs from Holland for years now and puts on walking tours for guests. They were planted this year in November and December since they thrive in temperate climates and need a period of cool dormancy to bloom.
Even though the pier ended their 'Tulipmania' walking tours on Feb. 24th, they are still expected to be in bloom for about two or three weeks.
Pier 39 is located at 2 Beach Street in San Francisco. For more information, go to pier39.com.

News Release
Seattle Heats Up -- Power in Good Supply
For Immediate Release:
For More Information Contact:
Scott Thomsen (206) 386-4233
Record Demand in the East Not the Same in the West
As temperatures rise during the summer all across the U.S., the demand for electricity to run air conditioning and cooling equipment also increases. Many East Coast cities are facing heavy power demand with potential wide-spread outages. The Northwest isnt experiencing the same situation. Demand for electricity is not as high because fewer homes in our area have air conditioning. Also, power supplies in the Northwest are doing well because of a combination of late spring snows and cooler, wetter weather during June.
City Light is in a good position going into this first heat wave of the season, states Superintendent Jorge Carrasco. While we had a low snowpack earlier this year, the late snow in April has helped us out.
Another factor is the much cooler and wetter temperatures in June. Unlike last year, Seattle hasnt seen temperatures above 75 degrees until just recently.
The biggest issue for our system when we get a stretch of hot weather is in our underground vault system, adds Phil West, Customer Care and Energy Delivery Officer. What happens is the underground power lines that are designed to withstand water that sometimes fills the vaults, can become dry and brittle when it heats up, and the insulation will crack. The increased flow of electricity puts more stress on the cable connections, increasing the potential for failure. If the insulation on an underground cable cracks, any water in the vault will cause a short. (For more information on summertime outages, please see the attached fact sheet.)
City Light had a handful of small, isolated outages in the underground system on Wednesday, July 7. Power has been restored to all those customers.
City Light offers customers some tips for conserving electricity, staying cool, and what to do if an outage does occur:
One of the best ways to keep your house cool is not to let the outside heat inside. Keeping the windows closed during the day and covered by blinds or drapes can significantly reduce the amount of heat gained through a window. Better yet, install an exterior shade. Also, good insulation not only keeps your house warm in the winter, it helps keep you cool in the summer. Other money-saving tips include:
1. Give appliances a break. Limit the use of ranges and stoves, dishwashers, dryers, washing machines and other heat-producing equipment especially during mid-day.
2. Prepare cool meals, such as salads and sandwiches. If you must cook a hot meal, wait until later in the evening when it's cooler.
3. Use a ceiling fan, A typical fan consumes 98 percent less electricity than most central air conditioners use.
4. Adjust ceiling fans to turn counter-clockwise, which will push down warm air trapped near the ceiling.
5. If you have central air conditioning: Cool only the rooms you use. But don't close all vents. Closing too many actually reduces operating efficiency.
6. Turn off the air conditioner when you leave the house for several hours.
7. An air conditioner thermostat is not a throttle, so don't switch your air conditioner to a colder setting when you turn it on. It won't cool the room any faster but it will waste energy when you forget to turn it up again. Keep it set at 80 degrees.
8. Install a timer on your room air conditioner, or use a programmable thermostat on your central air conditioner.
9. Keep your air conditioner shaded to improve its efficiency.
10. Set your furnace thermostat as high as possible. The minimum recommended energy-efficient summer temperature is 78 degrees.
High temperatures can add strain on our electrical equipment. Should the power go out, first check your main switch for a blown fuse or an open breaker. If that is not the problem, call City Light's Outage Hotline at (206) 684-7400 for a recording of all known outages. If your area is not mentioned, please let us know by calling (206) 684-3000.
City Light urges its customers to be prepared for outages.
1. Customers relying on electric life-support machines should let City Light know about their needs. Please call (206) 684-3000 and let us know. They also should have emergency backup power and know how to operate it. The backup system should have an alarm to alert the user if the power goes out.
2. Have an emergency kit ready. The kit should include a working flashlight, glow-in-the-dark light sticks, a wind-up clock, a portable radio and a manual can opener.
3. Cordless phones will not work without electricity. Have a corded phone or a cell phone available.
4. In most cases, food should be safe if refrigerators and freezers are kept shut when the power is out. If the power is out for longer than 12 hours, perishables should be discarded. When it doubt, throw it out.
For more ways to conserve energy, please go to City Light's Website
MEDIA NOTE: For current conditions or to reach City Light media relations, please use the 24-hour Media Line: (206) 386-4233. Your call will be returned immediately.
Seattle City Light is the ninth largest public electric utility in the United States committed to providing low cost, reliable, renewable and environmentally responsible power to nearly 1 million Seattle area residents. City Light has been greenhouse gas neutral since 2005, the first electric utility in the nation to achieve that distinction.

Tetanus-Diphtheria; Tetanus-Diphtheria-Pertussis (Td/Tdap)Tetanus is disease caused by bacteria. These bacteria live in all outdoor environments, most commonly in soil. Any open injury to the skin (for example, from a dirty cut, puncture wound, or animal bite) can produce a port of entry into the body. Once inside, the bacteria may germinate and produce a poisonous substance that interferes with nerve conduction. This can result in uncontrolled muscle spasms and may be fatal. Adults younger than 65 years may receive the tetanus, reduced diphtheria, and pertussis vaccine (Tdap) as a one-time alternative to tetanus and diphtheria (Td) if the pertussis component is indicated. The combination vaccine (Tdap) is composed of vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus (lockjaw), and pertussis, another bacterial disease (whooping cough). This vaccine is given routinely to children and is recommended for adults under 65 years of age who have never received a dose of Tdap.
Diphtheria is an infection caused by bacteria. The bacteria usually attack the respiratory tract, especially the throat. Toxins produced by the bacteria cause damage to nerve fibers and to the heart that can result in an irregular or very slow heartbeat or heart failure.

Thankfully this happened underground. A fire on top of a pole would have set fire to the pole and caused a lot more damage and potential danger to homes full of people fast asleep.
We need to get the undergrounding all over town.
on Jan 28, 2013 at 9:39 am
Thanks to the Weekly for this information.
I wish the City would do the following: use a dedicated Twitter feed to release updated information; when the phones are swamped -- as they were this morning -- use a voice mail system giving residents the option of hearing a pre-recorded message with updates on the power outage.
Clearly, though, the use of Twitter -- particularly if the Utilities crew in the field could provide at least a little real-time information -- would be very helpful.
on Jan 28, 2013 at 10:28 am
Busy morning for the PAFD. First this vault fire, then a fire in a commercial dryer in the 3800 block of El Camino in Barron Park. PAFD is now assisting MVFD with a two alarm fire at a house on Spring Street (near 101 and Old Middlefield Way).

Crazy...heard the sirens early this morning...experienced the black out. Thank you PAFD for being so competent.

I saw that fire this morning in Mountain View too...looked bad.

I too would like a place to get news. Heard the sirens, three rounds -- would have liked to get "instant" news...

CO2?! (sigh) there goes our carbon footprint.
on Jan 28, 2013 at 2:30 pm
No need for Climate Panic. New research by the Norwegian government indicates carbon emissions produce far less global warming than had been thought.
on Jan 28, 2013 at 3:21 pm
Wow, that is very scary....i heard all the sirens. Too close for comfort. What next?
on Jan 28, 2013 at 4:34 pm
Should the AlertSCC system been used? Could it have been used to notify residents in the area affected?

I found more twitter accounts:
on Jan 28, 2013 at 6:39 pm
My goodness. Is it up to us to hunt around to look for the twitter accounts of the utilities? Wouldn't it be wise if they put the twitter address (? or whatever it is called) in large print on every utilities bill?
Shouldn't they be reaching out to us not us searching for a needle in a haystack to find where to look for news of an outage?
on Jan 28, 2013 at 7:59 pm
I'd be asking why this happened, particularly given how little time and effort our city gives to infrastructure maintenance. Which underground transformer will be next?
