The investigators have currently finished conducting an international multi-center trial that compares the efficacy and safety of pamidronate and zoledronate in the treatment of moderate to severe forms of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). This trial has included only children above one year of age. The aim of the current study is to extend the observations of that currently finished study to infants below 1 year of age. Moreover, it is possible to administer zoledronate in a single short infusion instead of the three-day cycles with Pamidronate, therefore decreasing patient and family burdens with shorter stays in the hospital.

Students boost SUV mileage numbers
Davis, Calif.—One of the problems with a sport utility vehicle (SUV) is it gets incredibly poor gas mileage. But engineering students at the University of California at Davis see that as a challenge.
They turned a 2002 Ford Explorer into a low-emissions vehicle with at least 25% higher fuel economy—without sacrificing performance, utility, safety, and affordability.
The students are among the Top 15 North American university engineering schools that competed in the 2002 FutureTruck competition.
UC Davis's entry, called Yosemite, is a "plug-in" hybrid electric vehicle. An onboard battery and electric motors power the vehicle during low-speed city driving and on trips of up to 50 miles. A small, fuel-efficient gasoline engine powers the vehicle for extended highway driving. Drivers can charge Yosemite's batteries at night using inexpensive off-peak electricity, or they can drive it indefinitely, stopping only to refill the fuel tank.
Using electricity from the wall plug to power the vehicle is extremely efficient and results in doubling fuel economy and reducing tailpipe emissions to below California's strictest Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle standards. For people concerned about global warming, "plugging in" reduces Yosemite's carbon dioxide emissions below that of other, much smaller hybrid electric vehicles that cannot be plugged in.
FutureTruck is a joint government/industry project the Department of Energy created to explore alternative propulsion systems and fuels through student competition. The program's goal is to help raise the environmental performance of popular SUVs while keeping the amenities and features that have made them so popular.
The winner of the event was the University of Wisconsin at Madison, which scored 839 points out of a possible 1,000. Michigan Tech took second place, and UC Davis came in third. Last year, UC Davis won first place overall with Sequoia, a modified 2000 Chevrolet Suburban.

Ann Arbor residents will decide on new library building this November
By Kate Wells
Ann Arbor residents can add a new tax levy to the growing list of issues on the November ballot.
The local library board wants $65 million for a new downtown building.
After 60 years, the Ann Arbor library's main branch has done its job, according to the board.
But now they say they're running out of space, so they want to tear down and rebuild on the same site.
The plan would mean a 30-year tax hike. It would add roughly $54 dollars to the annual tax bill of anyone with a home worth $200,000.
If residents vote no, it would be the first time in 20 years the town's rejected a tax increase for the library.

Last morning in Bariloche
I've come to Bariloche (Llao Llao area) with my family (all adults) just for 3 days and we've had a wonderful time.
On the first day, we biked Circuito Chico. We spent the second day at Vila Angostura, and now I still have tomorrow from 9 to 1 to do something nice.
We like adventure and sight seeing.
Do you have any special recommendation? Does anyone know Canopi?
Thank you in advance -

Can you tell me what is the actual weather on that time period based on your experience? -

Actual Weather/Ash Condition
I will be travalling to Argentina in early December. I have been told that the Airport at Bariloche will remain closed until late December because of maintenance work after due to the ashes from the volcano.
It is an option to take a bus, BUT I would like to know how are the conditions right now in Bariloche. I don't want to spend 8hrs in a bus just to find a cloudy-gray Bariloche covered with ashes.

Driving in Bariloche in late April
We are going to Bariloche and the surrounding Lake District area in next late April. I was told that it would be rainy during those days. Will there be a good chance that we will get good weather?

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Air Travel to Bariloche
My daughter said that she can fly to Bariloche from Buenos Aires in a couple of weeks for about

It's Eric Rieger's first time in a 3-way and boy does he have two hot studs to break him in. Trevor Hanson and David Grant really works Eric over, giving him the best they've got. The two handsome studs stuff his cock and his firm white ass with their huge pricks, but first they prime his hole for their big intruders by rimming his sweet pink hole with their probing tongues. After a wild fuckfest, the three studs are so hot that they've got to release the heavy loads churning in their groins. The heat is on as all three erupt geysers of cum and collapse in sweaty sex-spent satisfaction.

In the famous library scene in James Joyce's Ulysses, Stephen Dedalus expounds a theory of artistic creation based on an account of Shakespeare's relationship to his plays and the characters contained in them. Buck Mulligan, Stephen's mocking nemesis, sums up the theory by saying that it "proves by algebra that Hamlet's grandson is Shakespeare's grandfather and that he himself is the ghost of his own father." Peter Conrad's book, Orson Welles: The Stories of his Life, makes a similar case for the relationship of Welles' own life to his various artistic productionsfrom Citizen Kane through The War of the Worlds to Touch of Evil and multiple productions of Shakespeare. Conrad's thesis is that Welles took "possession of Europe," its art and literature, and turned "texts into commentaries on himself."
The book, organized around Welles's preoccupation with character types such as Faust, Kurtz, Quixote, Falstaff, and Prospero, breaks from the traditional film-study analysis to be found, for example, in James Naremore's fine book, The Magic World of Orson Welles (1978). Conrad's book moves with ease from scenes in a variety of films to observations about Welles's own artistic quest and his multifarious sources, which range from Homer to Joyce. The result is a gem of a book, at once a biography and a filmography, on nearly every page of which one finds illuminating insights.
In lesser hands, such an interpretive approach would prove disastrous. But Conrad relies very little upon the fatuous one-to-one correspondences between art and life. Instead of diminishing drama to augment psychology, Conrad expands our understanding of both work and author. Orson lost both his parents while still a child and this, according to Conrad, prompted him to construct various tales about his origin and nature. He certainly felt free to make up stories about his father's death, which he variously and falsely called a suicide and a murder, committed by his son, Orson. But Conrad does not give us yet another deconstruction of greatness. Welles was not just working out private psychoses on the screen; instead, he was exploring great questions about the nature of art, the resources and afflictions of creativity, and modernity's apparent erosion of knowledge and purpose. Of his many and contradictory self-descriptions, Welles perhaps came closest to the truth when he said, "I am really a man of ideas. Yes, above all else."
Welles aspired to be what he called a Renaissance man, to draw "scattered things together and make sense of them." Of course, drawing together fragments in the hope of discovering intelligibility is a distinctively 20th century-occupation. Like both Joyce and Nietzsche, Welles is obsessed with the elusiveness of truth in the modern world, with the erosion of the old metaphysical framework.
Welles's thinking seems to reflect the Nietzschean thesis that the Christian concept of creation, coupled with the decline of belief in the deity, causes the ground to shift beneath our feet. Everything now is, as Joyce's Dedalus puts it, predicated "on the void." In such a context, creation itself comes to portend destruction. As Grisby, a character from Welles's The Lady From Shanghai, proclaims, "the world had a beginning, why not an end?" In this sceneshot on the edge of a cliff, with camera angles that make the characters appear as if they will at any moment plunge to their doom, Grisby prophesies a nuclear apocalypse. Conrad sees more than a flirtation with nihilism in Welles's obsession with annihilationTouch of Evil begins with an explosion, his film version of Kafka's The Trial ends with a blast, and The Lady from Shanghai ends with the famous shattering of images in a fun house.
Welles had a certain devotion to, or sympathy with, romantic poets such as Byron and Coleridge, who experienced the creative compulsion as a curse. Welles reinterprets Macbeth in this light. He depicts the witches themselves as "generative forces," a theme that suggests the identification of creation with the demonic. Welles' first and definitive film, Citizen Kane, opens with a traditional metaphor of creation, a mouth whispering, but just as the word is spoken, the speaker dies, as his little world, in the form of a glass ball, crashes to the floor and shatters. Kane's attempt at self-deification issues, not in creative productivity, but in the capitalist project of owning everything, a version of the romantic, "exorbitant, self-dissipating culture." Modernity, it seems, exacerbates to the point of exploding the central theme in Western culture, which Welles identifies as "the lost paradise."
Welles is drawn to characters that can easily be cast as parables concerning the self-destructive tendencies in modern humanity's project of self-deification. In this sense, his apparently contradictory assertions that "all my characters are Faust" and that he was "against every Faust" can be seen as perfectly compatible; something very much like this dramatization of modern humanity's self-destructive quests is at the heart of film noir, a style of filmmaking for which Welles had a special affinity.
Preoccupied from his youth with the ancient media of books and oratory (he began declaiming Shakespearean speeches at the age of ten), Welles became wedded to the distinctively modern media of radio, especially for his The War of the Worlds broadcast, and cinema. Like one of his great contemporaries, Hitchcock, Welles makes films that are reflective of the process of filmmaking itself. The inference to be drawn is, according to Conrad's persuasive case, a very pessimistic judgment about the possibility of redemption or transcendence through art. Film "ought to stop time," but it does the opposite, "depleting reality, using it up, and reducing it to a replica."
Laboring against the very tendencies of the medium in which he practiced his craft, Welles sought stability. Hence, his attraction to Shakespeare, whom he describes as "profoundly" opposed to the modern world. According to Conrad, Welles eschews the "upward historical" thrust of progressive modernity in favor of a return to myth, with its "cruel cyclical justice" and its "reassurance that, although all is mutable, nothing changes." This, too, sounds awfully Nietzschean or Joycean. What is Ulysses but an attempt through a return to classical mytha myth that in Joyce's hands now encompasses all the great literary epicsto discover some sort of shape in the form of recurring patterns? That is the upshot of Molly's comically erotic mimicking of Nietzsche's eternal return in her concluding repetition of "yes I said yes I will Yes."
Welles never seems quite capable of Joyce's comic embrace of the void. And Truffaut was only partially correct to call Welles a liberal, on account of his "sad, smiling acknowledgment that nothing can be conserved." At least on occasion, Welles glimpses the possibility of an alternative to liberal progressivism and mythic nihilism. Very late in his career, in F for Fake, a film explicitly about art and the personality of the artist, Welles pauses to venerate the anonymously constructed Cathedral at Chartres and its song of statuary, from which speak the "dead artists out of the living past." Despite Conrad's assertion that it is Chartres and not the romantic paradise of Xanadu to which Welles is most devoted, Welles never enters the cathedral. His enduring romanticism leads him to treat the Cathedral as no more than an object of wistful nostalgia. For him, there is no way out of the noir labyrinth, caught between his longing for a sense of continuity or purpose and his sense that everything erodes as rapidly as it appears.

When a team wins a tournament, it is very difficult to find flaws. When a team dominates its opponents as Canada did after losing their first game, out scoring them 21-2, it speaks to a complete and coordinated team effort in all aspects. That was the case with these young men.
I must mention the coaching staff. After losing 5-1 to Sweden on day one, they worked tirelessly to help the players understand what they needed to do better to experience success. As the players grasped the system of team play the coaches instilled, the team became stronger and stronger with each passing period. In the semi-final and final, Team Canada was in such complete control, that they not only won, they did it by beating two very good teams in Russia and Sweden leaving no doubt as to who was the best team in the tournament.
I am not assessing these players based on points or such but on their ability to play to their strengths and help their team win. These players have all been very good players throughout their young careers. To be part of a successful team requires a lot of unselfish play, an understanding of what they can do to help the team win and a respect for the contributions of each and every player. I believe this group has earned an A+ in all categories.
Daniel AltshullerAfter losing the 1st game 5-1, he only surrendered 2 goals in the next 4 games. While going through some long stretches of inactivity, he showed strong concentration when scoring chances came his way.
Domenic GrahamPlayed sparingly but did share in the shutout win vs. Switzerland
Adam PelechReally stepped up his game as the tourney progressed. Was a physical presence and he played a strong defensive game, always in the right position.
Slater KoekkoekNot a lot of flash in his game but was competitive and really established a defensive intensity for the team.
Morgan RiellyIf he made a mistake, I didn't see it. When he was on the ice, there was a higher sense of calm and he was able to control play in all areas and situations.
Griffin ReinhartLooked a little hesitant at the outset but progressed along and was a strong force defensively, eliminating opponents and turning them aside at every turn.
Michael MathesonDid not play a lot but when he did; he showed that he has the requisite skills to be a very good defenseman. Excellent skater who appears effortless and has very good sense.
Matt DumbaWas a factor, offensively, defensively and physically and he went up against tow of the biggest and best forwards in the tourney, Grigorenko & Forsberg and not only fared well, he completely shut them down. The Captain played with confidence and showed the ability to forget his mistakes and get on to the next task.
Derek PouliotMade excellent plays with the puck and was a real catalyst for jumping into the offensive zone and keeping the puck in the opposition end and thus helping wear down the opponents. Very poised and with his puck play, made the opposition chase the puck.
Andreas AthanasiouHas speed and quickness and he used it continuously to create scoring chances for himself. Took the puck to the scoring areas and really showed that he was capable of being dangerous.
Hunter ShinkarukHad a lot of jump and created sustained play in the offensive zone along with line mates, Smith & Rychel. Did not get rewarded with goals but had chances & played with purpose and determination.
Brendan GaunceAs the games became more important, he got better. With his size, he made himself very difficult to play against & was a smart player without the puck & scored the backbreaking goal vs. Sweden in the final, forty seconds into the 3rd period.
Scott LaughtonHe was another player who got better with each passing game. He was presence in the game without the puck because he was always in the right position and he used his skating to shut down any hint of an offensive foray by the opposition. Scored the Gold Medal winning goal.
Charles HudonA skilled player who brought the power play to life and made it very successful. Is smart and he finds a way to get & create scoring chances despite not being the biggest of players.
Matthew CampagnaHe used his skating very well to be the catalyst for a very effective fore-check, hurrying opponents & forcing mistakes. Had some scoring chances but most importantly he played with a desire and tenacity that makes him difficult for opponents.
Kirby RychelAnother player who brought a strong desire to make a difference physically. He got on top of the defense & really forced them to make plays quickly and forced mistakes that created chances. Had some excellent chances to score but was using his Father's sticks!
Gemel SmithHe was strong along the boards and with his skating, really shut down the amount of time opponents had to make a play or gain ice. In terms of sustained play in the offensive zone, his line with Shinkaruk and Rychel, were excellent.
Matia MarcantuoniGot hurt in the 1st game and was unable to participate the rest of the tourney.
Sean MonahanMoved over to the wing and he played very strong in that position. When a player is accustomed to moving more freely, his attention to detail and willingness to do the things a winger must do, shows the excellent sense and awareness he has and the important quality of adaptability.
Jarrod MaidensRegardless of the situation, he was able to make the necessary play. He is smart and really understands the game and he leaves himself in position to make plays either offensively or defensively.
Felix GirardHe was a tireless worker throughout and battled along the boards and at the net and if had any 'give' to him, it never showed. Played a strong determined game on a consistent basis.
Thomas WilsonWhat looked like a little awkwardness early in the tourney, he continuously evolved into the main catalyst for the physical tone the team wanted to establish. He was strong in his efforts, and he knew exactly how to get his strengths into the game and made a significant impact when he was on the ice.

And speaking of hurricanes, all SuperClubs resorts provide the "No Hurricane Guarantee" year-round. Should a hurricane happen to strike, the resort will issue a voucher for the same number of disrupted nights for use for a stay during the same month of the following year. Ditto for its "Jamaica Sunshine Guarantee" should one encounter a sunless day — a rare occurrence in Jamaica. www.superclubs.com/brand_grandlido/resort_braco/

New York • The stock market crept higher Wednesday ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday. Major market indexes got a slight lift after news broke of a cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
The truce was announced by Egypt's foreign minister and confirmed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. A week of fighting has killed more than 140 Palestinians and five Israelis.

The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose three points to 1,390. Bank stocks and utilities fell the most, while industrial companies rose the most, but no category moved more than 0.5 percent.
The Dow Jones industrial average climbed 54 points to 12,842. Two expensive Dow stocks — IBM and United Technologies — each rose more than $1, giving the blue-chip average a lift. High-dollar stocks in the Dow carry more weight.
The Nasdaq composite index gained nine points to 2,926.
Deere, the maker of tractors and other farm and construction equipment, was down 4 percent. It reported a quarterly profit of $1.75 per share, missing Wall Street expectations of $1.88.
Chipotle Mexican Group, the restaurant chain, climbed 1.7 percent. It announced late Tuesday that it would buy back an additional $100 million of its own stock. That's in addition to a $100 billion buyback plan launched Oct. 18.
The quiet open Wednesday followed an uneventful finish Tuesday. The Dow dropped as much as 94 points after a warning from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke about federal budget talks, then recovered to close down just seven points.
The stock market will be closed Thursday for Thanksgiving and will close early Friday.
In the bond market, the yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note inched up to 1.68 percent.

Higher Ed Board approves fall '08 tuition, UO arena bonds and contracting
Di Saunders –Cell: 971-219-6869 (today, Friday, and over weekend); Office: 503-725-5714
Tuition increases of 3% maintained for 4th straight year
PORTLAND, June 6, 2008 –The State Board of Higher Education (the "Board") met yesterday and today at Eastern Oregon University in La Grande to consider fall 2008 tuition increases, items related to the planning and construction of the University of Oregon arena project, and proposed programs to be considered by the 2009 Legislature in the OUS budget, among other items discussed by the Board.
Tuition & Fees Rates and Changes Jay Kenton, OUS vice chancellor for finance and administration, and Brian Meara, OUS interim director of budget operations, reviewed the tuition and resource fees transition plan developed jointly with the Oregon Student Association, and approved by the Board earlier this year. Meant to increase transparency of tuition and fee charges at OUS institutions, among other goals, the plan begins to fold resource fees into base tuition rates. The plan also includes availability of financial aid for students in programs that begin charging differential tuition, which is higher than standard tuition rates, so that cost is not an impediment to students when choosing a major. The Board authorized the chancellor or designee to report on these transition plans and details to the Legislative Emergency Board, and related information in the 2008-09 Academic Year Fee Book.
Kenton and Meara summarized, and the Board reviewed and approved, tuition and fee increases for 2008-09. The recommendations are in compliance with the Legislative Budget Note which limits tuition increases to 3.4% for undergraduates on average, across the system, and resource fees to 8.6% of tuition revenue. Room and board increase recommendations were also approved by the Board. Below is a summary of the resident undergraduate tuition and fee increases and comparisons with the current year; more detail of nonresident and graduate program tuition and fees is available at: /sites/default/files/state_board/meeting/dockets/ddoc080606.pdf, beginning on page 67.

UO Arena After a thorough review of the UO arena project and history from UO president Dave Frohnmayer, and representatives from the state Treasurer's Office and consultants related to the project, and discussion by the Board, the resolution for the sale of $200 million in Article XI-F(1) Bonds was approved by the Board. The Board also voted approval of the finding that the UO Athletic department buildings and structures, including the arena, conservatively appear to be wholly self-liquidating and self-supporting. The Board separately approved the UO's request for a sole source determination made by president Frohnmayer to enter into a sole source contract with National Championship Properties (NCP) related to design, pre-construction and construction of the arena, and to delegate to president Frohnmayer the responsibility to ensure performance of all related obligations. The Board also approved UO's request to continue to authorize NCP to contract with Ellerbe Becket, TVA, and Hoffman Construction; and approved that any protests submitted related to these contracts be filed with the OUS Chancellor's Office. The Board also approved a motion that OUS conduct a formal review of the entire arena process to determine lessons learned, especially in the case where a major private donation is a component of a capital projects.
OUS Policy Option Packages Chancellor George Pernsteiner reviewed the proposed policy option packages to address priorities and issues of critical importance related to higher education in Oregon. Budget priorities for 2009-2011 include: (1) Educational Quality and Delivery investments that will: decrease faculty/student ratios and increase academic quality and access; bring faculty salaries closer to peer averages; increase OUS competitiveness to attract advanced degree students; and ensure safe and efficient campus facilities through critical capital repairs and deferred maintenance; (2) Student Affordability, Access and Success investments that will: freeze tuition costs at the smaller OUS institutions; increase underserved students in pre-college preparation and in-college retention programs; support previous and current enrollment increases; support the preparation and retention of K-12 teachers; continue alignment and ease of transfer between K-12, community colleges and OUS; increase degrees through support of university centers on community college campuses; and develop ways to identify and measure learning outcomes; (3) Research and Sustainability investments that will enhance research competitiveness through strategic partnerships and a focus on sustainability and biotechnology, elevate research connections via workforce and economic development, and improve research communications and assessment; support a collaborative effort to create a National Life Sciences Center in Portland; and create increased collaboration between OUS research faculty and the manufacturing cluster; and (4) Economic and Workforce Support investments that will: increase the number of engineers, technology workers and applied scientists to meet Oregon's workforce needs, hiring research faculty and improving laboratories, and expanding the pre-college pipeline; and through Statewide Public Services, continue and expand enabling partnerships with natural resource industries, environmental and natural resource agencies, and stakeholders to enhance Oregon's economy and environment. The Board discussed the need to further prioritize and hone the proposals at the staff and Board levels prior to and at the July board meeting, with a final version presented to the Governor and the Legislative Fiscal Office in the fall.
In other action and discussion at the meetings, the Board:
- Discussed the 2009-2011 capital construction request which the Board will be asked to approve at the July 2008 Board meeting. Staff will present priorities built through an application of criteria.
- Approved the following new academic programs: (1) Oregon State University – Graduate Certificate in Fisheries Management, effective spring 2008; Graduate Certificate in Marine Resource Management, effective spring 2008; (2) Portland State University – Master of Architecture, effective spring 2008; B.F.A. in Visual Art, effective fall 2008; (3) UO – Graduate Certificate in Ecological Design, effective fall 2008; and (4) Oregon Health & Science University – Graduate Certificate in Public Health, effective fall 2008.

Elective Courses
The iCollege electives offer intellectually demanding and academically challenging courses that allow students to pursue professional interests and acquire specific knowledge and skills in information resources management-related fields of study. These courses are open to students from the iCollege Advanced Management Program as well as students attending the Industrial College of the Armed Forces (ICAF), the National War College (NWC), and the School for National Executive Education. The College elective courses enable these students to broaden their knowledge or to delve deeper into the areas that are covered in their core programs. For example, students can pursue studies in the areas of multimedia technologies, knowledge management, capital planning, network security, and information operations. Because the iCollege electives are open to students from ICAF and the NWC, these course officially support the Department of Defense's Joint Professional Military Education Phase II program.

Check out the story: http://nwsportsmanmag.com/2013/04/10/wardens-nab-netters-with-242-lenore-lahontans/ Leland.
That's awesome! Too bad about all the dead fish, but at least there are four arseholes off the streets and hopefully into jail. At a minimum, this will cost them big $ and will serve as a deterrent.
And you gotta wonder....WHY? I'd imagine that few things taste as nasty as an alkaline-water lahontan!
They said that they were cited. They were probably released the same day. Now they can sneak around and do it again.
Yup. The counties say they don't have the money to keep any but the most violent criminals in jail. So there's no doubt they let them out ... which makes the guy who most likely died trying to escape from the police really stupid.
Sorry for the Michael Vick reference everybody, but if killing a few dogs gets you jail time, how does killing 242 cutts keep you from having an extended stay in the clink??? It's rhetorical, so don't answer. My point is, these 4 derelicts should have paid for their crimes with more than just money and a vehicle seizer.
Great police work !!!! Hope they can keep the seized truck and fine these poachers. I seriously doubt they do any jail time for this crime
Awesome and sad at the same time. That will certainly put a hurting on the fishery. Let's hope they were done with the spring spawn before getting netted...netted for hell sakes...what the hell is wrong with people? I wonder, what do you suppose they planned to do with them? Hope they get their truck seized, pay some hefty fines and spend some time meeting some of our other upstanding citizens...good grief.
A follow up would be nice, bet they don't get any time and a minimum fine. I would have just driven them into the lake and cast to them with a #12 chironomid on a 7x tippet, in case they wanted rescue.
so they think one of the poachers might have drowned? Tough shit. I wonder why they weren't cited for felony eluding?
Im sure its the States fault for not placing signs in the appropriate language saying its illegal....Yeah...i said it.. these were clearly for sale on the market...
Eh, it would have just been misdemeanor eluding. Felony is only if driving, and putting officers or others in danger. Not that maybe that cops couldn't have come up with something for the guy trying to flee in the truck.
A little further into the story it said they found him 10 miles away. 2005 Tundra is a nice truck. Police auction?
Thank you Leland for sharing that. I hope they get a harsh sentence and im glad they seized the vehicle. That had to hurt one of those guys bank pretty good. Sad really though how someone would steal trout. I dont know what you would do with all those fish but its shameful. We need game wardens and police officers doing this much much more. Especially at the protected fisheries.

JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) - A newspaper's review of practices at county animal shelters in West Tennessee found that some shelters were not adhering to state regulations for spaying or neutering animals and the state has no oversight procedures to make sure counties follow the rules.
The Jackson Sun (http://bit.ly/U7i6KV ) checked several county and municipal shelters for their adherence to state law, which says shelters must spay or neuter animals before they are adopted or require an animal's new owner to do so.
The newspaper found several shelters that failed to comply with the law that requires them to charge owners refundable deposits for adopting unaltered animals that are designed to encourage spaying and neutering.
Animal activists say spaying and neutering prevents unwanted animals that have to be euthanized.

Store > Shop By Category > Supplements > Hammer Premium Insurance Caps, 120 Capsules
Though all people, especially athletes, should strive to eat a healthy and balanced diet, few do. Additionally, our food supply is desperately lacking in the nutrients once had, up to 90% less than a few decades ago. These reasons are why advice such as "you can get all the nutrients you need from your food" is hopelessly outdated and why the consistent use of a multivitamin/mineral supplement is essential. The key to obtaining noticeable benefits is to provide your body with optimal amounts of nutrients, not just minimum "daily recommended" amounts, and that's where Premium Insurance Caps comes in. Formulated with Optimal Daily Intake (ODI) amounts of the highest quality vitamins and minerals, along with an impressive array of "super foods", digestive enzymes, and amino acids, Premium Insurance Caps is one of the best, yet remarkably inexpensive, investments you can make for your health.
INGREDIENTS: (7 capsules)

Filiger was the Pont-Aven School's most consistent creator of religious images. The left panel of this Last Judgment scene presents the saved souls, gathered near a cliff rendered in banded zones of flat color. The right panel depicts the somber but remarkably calm souls of the damned. The central panel was never completed.
Filiger's emphasis on detail and his meticulous use of gold and silver set him apart from most of the Pont-Aven School. He was educated in Jesuit schools and inspired by Italian medieval painters, such as Cimabue and Giotto.
Provenance Research is on-going at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, and information will be added to this record as research is completed. Please contact Annette Schlagenhauff, Assoc. Curator of Research, at email@example.com with any questions.

More copies of this ISBNThis title in other editionsThe Illuminatus! Trilogyby Robert Anton Wilson
Staff Pick I had grown bored with reading, until I found this book. Anything and everything can be found here: conspiracies, drugs, sex, talking gorillas, dolphins with scuba gear, a yellow submarine, undead Nazi soldiers, rock 'n' roll, ritual magic, quantum theory, Mafia dons who collect Atlantean art?.Even after finishing it, I continued to carry it around with me for weeks, just opening to a page at random and reading. I then sought out everything I could find by Robert Anton Wilson and the myriad of sources he borrows from, but this is the starting place of my intellectual quest. Maybe it's because I found this book at just the right time in my life, but I cannot recommend it highly enough. Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:It was a deadly mistake, Joseph Malik, editor of a radical magazine, had snooped into rumors about an ancient secret society that was still alive and kicking. Now his offices have been bombed, he's missing, and the case has landed in the lap of a tough, cynical, streetwise New York detective. Saul Goodman knows he's stumbled onto something big — but even he can't guess how far into the pinnacles of power this conspiracy of evil has penetrated.
Filled with sex and violence — in and out of time and space — the three books of The Illuminatus! Trilogy are only partly works of the imagination. They tackle all the cover-ups of our time — from who really shot the Kennedys to why there's a pyramid on a one-dollar bill — and suggest a mind-blowing truth. Review:"The biggest sci-fi cult novel to come along since Dune." The Village Voice
Review:"An epic fantasy....A devilishly funny work, loaded with humor, puns, up-level ironies that make you burst out laughing." New Age Journal
Synopsis:Filled with sex and violence--in and out of time and space--the three books of The Illuminatus are only partly works of the imagination. They tackle all the coverups of our time--from who really shot the Kennedys to why there's a pyramid on a one-dollar bill.

The first production since its Broadway run, The Scottsboro Boys boasts the original direction and choreography of Susan Stroman, re-created by Jeff Whiting.
The company includes original Broadway cast members Derrick Cobey, Rodney Hicks, Kendrick Jones, Forrest McClendon, JC Montgomery and Clinton Roane, who are joined by newcomers Andrew Arrington, Gilbert L. Bailey II, Nile Bullock, Ron Holgate, Eric Jackson, David Bazemore and Kaci Fannin.
The Scottsboro Boys features music and lyrics by the legendary team of John Kander and Fred Ebb (Cabaret, Chicago) and book by David Thompson. Read Playbill.com's story about Kander and Thompson's response to the project's multiple 2011 Tony Award nominations.
"The Scottsboro Boys is about nine boys who are just trying to survive — to get a job, get back home, start a life. And, above all, prove to the world that they matter," said librettist David Thompson in a previous statement.
Continued Susan Stroman: "A uniquely American story about an important chapter of American history, The Scottsboro Boys is a story that still has relevance today. So many of those issues are unresolved, and threaten to remain so unless we engage in a dialogue about them. I look forward to working at Philadelphia Theatre Company. Our hope is this production will be a way to get the conversation started, and to carry it forward."
The Scottsboro Boys reunites the original creative team of set designer Beowulf Boritt, lighting designer Ken Billington, costume designer Toni-Leslie James and sound designer Peter Hylenski. PTC favorite Eric Ebbenga returns as music director.
Tickets starting at $25 are available by calling the PTC Box Office at (215) 985-0420 or by visiting PhiladelphiaTheatreCompany.org. Philadelphia Theatre Company's Suzanne Roberts Theatre is located at Broad and Lombard Streets.

Gov. Cuomo's rant on education funding, and an expert's response
By Dave Bullard/WRVO
WRVO – Governor Andrew Cuomo unloaded on the state's school districts last week and school officials are taking the unusual step of firing back in public.
The association for superintendents of school issued a long rebuttal of the Governor's comments.
In his press conference, Cuomo claimed schools were playing a game of threatening to harm a child's education because they don't want to make cuts.
We asked Dr. Rick Timbs of the Statewide School Finance Consortium to respond directly to pieces of Cuomo's comments.

MacStories reports today on a new record that has just been set in the App Store by Apple and third-party developers, with the news that in the 453 days since the original iPad was released on April 3, 2010, the App Store now has over 100,000 iPad-exclusive apps available for download. This represents a big jump from the last time MacStories reported on the number of iPad apps in the App Store, back in March, when there were 75,000 apps available. 9to5 Mac breaks this down to on average 280 new apps per day for the iPad. 9to5 Mac also wonders why Apple isnt making more of a song and dance about this news today, as it generally likes to point out things that set it aside from Android! However Im sure something will be said by the time the next keynote address comes round, by which time the total may well be closer to 200,000 than 100,000!

Eucardic 12.5 mg Tablets
Please read all of this leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine.
Keep this leaflet. You may need to read it again.
If you have any further questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
This medicine has been prescribed for you. Do not pass it on to others. It may harm them even if their
symptoms are the same as yours.
If any of the side effects become serious or troublesome, or if you notice any side effects not listed in this
leaflet, please tell your doctor or pharmacist.
In this leaflet:
1. What Eucardic is and what it is used for
2. Before you take Eucardic
3. How to take Eucardic
4. Possible side effects
5. How to store Eucardic
6. Further information
What Eucardic is and what it is used for
Eucardic contains a medicine called carvedilol. This belongs to a group of medicines called 'beta-blockers'.
Eucardic is used to treat the following:
Chronic heart failure.
High blood pressure (hypertension).
Angina (chest pain or discomfort that happens when your heart isn't getting enough oxygen).
Eucardic works by making your blood vessels relax and widen.
This helps to lower your blood pressure.
If you have chronic heart failure, this makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body.
If you have angina, this will help stop the chest pain.
Your doctor may give you other medicines as well as Eucardic to help treat your condition.
Before you take Eucardic
Do not take Eucardic if:
You are allergic (hypersensitive) to carvedilol or any of the other ingredients of Eucardic (listed in
Section 6: Further information).
You have ever had wheezing due to asthma or other lung diseases.
You have severe fluid retention (swelling of your hands, ankles and feet) which is being treated by
medicines given into one of your veins (intravenously).
You have problems with your liver.
You have problems with your heart (for example 'heart block' or slow heart beat). Eucardic is not
suitable for some people with certain types of heart problem.
You have very low blood pressure.
You have a problem with the acid levels in your blood ('metabolic acidosis').
You have a growth on one of your adrenal glands ('phaeochromocytoma').
If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Eucardic.
Take special care with Eucardic
Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking Eucardic if:
You have problems with your kidneys.
You have diabetes (high blood sugar).
You wear contact lenses.
You have problems with your blood vessels (peripheral vascular disease).
You have ever had problems with your thyroid.
You have ever had a serious allergic reaction (for example, sudden swelling, causing difficulty breathing
or swallowing, swelling of the hands, feet and ankles or a severe rash).
You have an allergy and are having treatment to desensitise you.
You have problems with the blood circulation in your fingers and toes ('Raynaud's phenomenon').
You have had a skin disorder called 'psoriasis', after taking beta-blocker medicines.
You have a type of angina called 'Prinzmetal's variant angina'.
If any of the above apply to you, or if you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you take
Taking other medicines
Please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines. This
includes medicines that you buy without a prescription and herbal medicines. This is because Eucardic can
affect the way some medicines work. Also some other medicines can affect the way Eucardic works.
In particular, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of the following medicines:
Other medicines for your heart or blood pressure, including water tablets (diuretics), 'calcium channel
blockers' (for example diltiazem or verapamil), digoxin and amiodarone.
Catecholamine-depleting agents (for example reserpine and Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs, such
as isocarboxide and phenelzine (used to treat depression)).
Fluoxetine (used to treat depression).
Medicines for diabetes, such as insulin or metformin.
Clonidine (used to treat high blood pressure, migraine and flushing in the menopause).
Rifampicin (used to treat infections).
Ciclosporin (used after an organ transplant).
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, for example aspirin, indomethacin and ibuprofen).
Beta-agonist bronchodilators (used to treat chest tightness and wheezing due to asthma or other chest
conditions (for example salbutamol and terbutaline sulphate)).
If you are going to have an operation, tell the doctor that you are taking Eucardic. This is because some
anaesthetics can lower your blood pressure, and it may become too low.
Pregnancy and breast-feeding
Do not take Eucardic if you are pregnant, trying to get pregnant or breast-feeding, unless your doctor has
told you to.
Driving and using machines
You may feel dizzy while taking Eucardic. This is more likely when you start treatment or if your treatment
is changed, and when you drink alcohol. If this happens to you, do not drive or use any tools or machines.
Talk to your doctor if you notice any other problems that might affect driving, using tools or machines while
you are taking Eucardic.
Important information about some of the ingredients of Eucardic

that you cannot tolerate or digest some sugars (have an intolerance to some sugars), talk to your doctor

When used for heart failure, treatment with Eucardic should be started by a specialist doctor.
You should take your tablets at the same time as eating some food.

Your doctor will then increase the dose slowly, over several weeks, up to 25 mg twice a day.
If you weigh more than 85 kg (187 lb) the dose may be increased up to 50 mg twice a day.
If you have stopped taking Eucardic for more than two weeks you should talk to your doctor. They will
need you to go back to the starting dose again (see section 'If you stop taking Eucardic').

The usual starting dose is 12.5 mg once a day for two days.
After two days the dose is usually 25 mg, once a day.

The usual starting dose is 12.5 mg twice a day for two days.
After two days the dose is usually 25 mg, twice a day.
Your doctor will decide both your starting dose and the best dose for you to take in the longer term.
The usual maximum dose is 50 mg each day, taken in smaller amounts (divided doses).
If you take more Eucardic than you should
If you take more Eucardic than you should or someone else takes your Eucardic, talk to a doctor or go to
a hospital straight away. Take the medicine pack with you.
The following effects may happen if you have taken more tablets than you should: a slow heart beat,
feeling dizzy or light headed, becoming breathless, wheezy or extremely tired.
If you forget to take Eucardic
If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is nearly time for the next
dose, skip the missed dose.
Do not take a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose.
If you stop taking Eucardic
Do not stop taking this medicine without talking to your doctor. They may want you to stop taking
Eucardic slowly over 1 to 2 weeks.
If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Government chief whip Andrew Mitchell has apologised to a police officer he is said to have insulted during a foul-mouthed rant in Downing Street.
Mr Mitchell said sorry for the "disrespectful" comments in a telephone call, according to sources.
The move came after police groups and Labour questioned whether Mr Mitchell could hang on to his job after details emerged of the confrontation earlier this week.
According to The Sun, the MP reacted angrily after being told he was not allowed to cycle out of Downing Street.
He apparently branded the officers "plebs" for not letting him use the main gates on Wednesday and said they should "learn your f****** place".
Mr Mitchell, who became chief whip in the reshuffle earlier this month, has denied using some of the reported language but apologised for not treating the police with proper respect.
