Randal Maxxon towels off after a session in the sauna and comes upon a naked Christian Fox, down on all fours fellating Max Grand's thick dick. Randal jumps right in and starts rimming the blond's hole, jamming his finger inside the puckered slit and slapping the butt cheeks red, before sliding his engorged cock in. Then Max takes his turn screwing his big dick deep inside Christian's crack. Having his ass split open by both horny studs makes Christian cry out in pain and pleasure until they all climax and cum.

A true culinary classic
A Stonewall Kitchen twist on an original.
The gold standard of all chutneys, based on the British influence of bringing chutney back to Europe from mythical Major Grey's journeys abroad in Indian, South Africa and the Caribbean. We at Stonewall created our own take on Major Grey's (Major Jon and Jim's?) by combining nothing but all natural ingredients including plenty of mangos and red peppers.
Mango, Pure Cane Sugar, Onion, Red Bell Pepper, Apple, Red Wine Vinegar, Raisins, Brown Sugar, Candied Ginger, White Vinegar, Canola Oil, Lime Juice Concentrate, Curry Powder, Salt, Ground Ginger, Cayenne Pepper.
This is a beautiful major grey's chutney, and in fact the only one I buy. Not only is this delicious it's the only one on the market I can find without high fructose corn syrup.
Complex, deep flavors that remain distinct and unmuddled.

Changing mentorship in oncology
Christine Simmons, Artsci'98, Meds'01, has created an online mentorship program for women in oncology.
Christine Simmons, Artsci'98, Meds'01, has always looked to guidance from mentors throughout her career development from a medical student at Queen's to a medical oncologist at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto. One of her first mentors was Kathleen Pritchard, Arts'69, Meds'71. After noting the benefits of a good relationship with a trusted advisor, Christine wanted to facilitate the development of such relationships across the country.
In order to accomplish this, she spearheaded the creation of Women in Cancer (WinC), Canada's first online initiative to establish and maintain mentoring relationships amongst oncologists across the country. "I realized that there is a wealth of support and resources that we could share with each other based on our individual experiences," she says. "We just needed a way of connecting with one another and establishing our support networks."
The challenges that women physicians face in career development are very different from those faced by male doctors. Oncology is a specialty that has seen a significant gender shift over the last decade, with residents in subspecialty training programs across the country now being predominantly women.
WinC was conceived as a way for these dedicated women to share their knowledge, mentor each other, and provide leadership training that would capture the gender shift in oncology.
"The WinC initiative has certainly brought us all together," says Kathleen. "It's clearly important that senior and junior people collaborate. Perhaps women, having some common issues and values, find this more useful or useful in different ways, although i think mentoring between women and men can also be extremely effective."
WinC offers its members literature resources, event information, a discussion forum, and video-conferencing technology to improve leadership tools and the mentoring relationship.
WinC also allows members to search across the country to find mentors who are their "perfect match". Kathleen and Christine are good examples. Kathleen is able to offer Christine insight into treating patients, doing academic research, and managing a career and family.
"There have been many difficult decisions to make over the course of my career so far, and Kathy has been an incredible support to me throughout these times," says Christine.
The mentor-mentee relationship, as she calls it, does not just benefit the mentee, it allows the mentor to celebrate her career and share her success and knowledge. Kathleen says, "I've been delighted to be part of a mentor/mentee relationship with Christine. I think as mentors we often gain more in enthusiasm, new approaches and knowledge from our mentee than vice versa."
WinC invites all medical, radiation, and surgical oncologists, and trainees, to join by visiting www.womenincancer.org. Membership is free and WinC is a fully registered not-for-profit organization.

Review: File Converter Free converts from and into one of dozens of file types
File Converter Free promises to convert just about any type of file on your iOS device into a comparable file, and for the most part it delivers on that promise. The issues we experienced were largely with upload and download time -- as it appears the conversion process takes place on the developer's servers. This is both a good and bad thing. It's good because it opens up the number of options. It's bad, however, because the conversion process is completely reliant on the speed of your device, the server, and your network connection.

Whirly-Girls International plans to award more than $60,000 in scholarships to help its members and other female pilots further their flight training.
The nonprofit organization is dedicated to advancing women in helicopter aviation. It is offering 10 scholarships that will be awarded at Heli-Expo in February 2014, Anaheim, Calif.
Offerings include a AS350 turbine transition course at the American Eurocopter Factory School; a Robinson R22/R44 safety course; initial type training, recurrent training, and inadvertent IMC training using a Bell 206 FAA Level 7 qualified flight training device; advanced mountain training; aircraft ditching; and general flight training. While these require membership in the organization to apply, an add-on flight training scholarship designed for female pilots rated in aircraft other than helicopters is open to nonmembers.
The deadline to apply for scholarships is Oct. 1. Additional information and an electronic application may be found on the website.
Topics Helicopter, Aircraft Types, Scholarship, Pilot Training and Certification, Helicopter Association International, Aviation Organizations
AOPA thanks our members for their continued support in protecting the freedom to fly.

In spite of the bad rap surrounding the banking sector of late, most of us continue to use checking and savings accounts associated with the very same banks implicated in the financial crisis. When it comes to storing your money, and earning interest on that money, banks are far more useful than a box under the mattress. But if your checking account requires a minimum balance, doesn't reimburse for ATM fees, or assesses a monthly service charge, consider switching to a no-fee banking arrangement. Most no-fee banking accounts are offered by online banks that cut expenses by not having to pay personnel, rent, and basic overhead to keep branch locations open. These savings are passed on to customers in the form of higher interest rates, lower fees, and free services.

A no-fee banking option might be ideal for your needs.No-Fee Banking Providers. Ally Bank, formerly GMAC bank, offers 24/7 phone-in customer service (chat is also available) and receives an above-average rating from hundreds of customer reviewers on its own website. Reviews posted at My Bank Tracker are less effusive, citing problems such as difficulty making electronic deposits, opening accounts, and transferring funds, as well as unhelpful customer service agents. Still, the no-fee banking options are a powerful inducement to sign on. The Interest Checking Account, for example, requires no minimum opening deposit and no monthly fees, regardless of the balance. The current APY is 0.40% for balances less than $15,000; higher amounts push the APY to 0.75%. Although Ally doesn't field any ATMs of its own, the bank reimburses all ATM fees incurred when making withdrawals in the U.S. Finally, Ally Bank offers free online and mobile banking with Bill Pay and Popmoney services.
A lesser known online bank, Bank of Internet USA, offers many of the same services as Ally Bank in addition to the promise of a much higher interest rate. The no-fee banking Rewards Checking account reimburses ATM fees nationwide, does not charge monthly maintenance fees or require a minimum balance, and offers free mobile and internet bank services (including Bill Pay) and Quicken FinanceWorks, which helps track your spending. The no-fee banking account, which requires a minimum $100 opening deposit, has a variable APY depending on monthly account activity. The starting APY is zero but each of the following actions is rewarded with an additional 0.3125% APY for the month: receive direct deposits of more than $1,000, pay two bills using online banking, make one to five purchases using your debit card, and make at least six purchases using your debit card. In total the APY can climb as high as 1.25%, which is 125 times higher than the 0.01% offered through the Regular Savings account at Bank of America.

Save money on no-fee banking.No-Fee Banking for Travelers. Although the Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking account only offers a variable 0.15% APY, this is the best no-fee banking deal for world travelers. To open a Charles Schwab Bank checking account, you must first open a brokerage account; neither requires a minimum balance or assesses monthly service charges, and both offer free online banking. You can easily transfer all the funds in the brokerage account to the checking account, although both accounts must remain open. Like the no-fee banking deals discussed above, Charles Schwab Bank reimburses any ATM fees at the end of the month, but unlike the other two, this applies to ATMs worldwide, not only within the U.S.
No-Fee Banking Limitations. These no-fee online accounts come with one severe limitation: it's difficult if not impossible to make cash deposits. The financial institutions all offer free direct deposit services and provide envelopes to deposit checks through the mail, but mailing cash is never advised. With Charles Schwab Bank and Bank of Internet USA you can deposit checks by snapping a picture of the check with a smartphone, and along with Ally Bank, you can scan check images and make a deposit online from your computer.
Charles Schwab Bank offers a simple solution to the cash deposit dilemma: Put the cash into your Charles Schwab brokerage account at one of the branch locations and then transfer the funds to your checking account online. That said, this is a non-starter if there's no nearby branch. State Farm Bank, another online bank with no-fee checking accounts (a minimum $25 initial deposit is required), lets customers deposit cash through special deposit-sharing ATMs.
Related: Inexpensive tablet reviews
Another method for dealing with the cash issue is what we'll call the "two bank accounts" approach: Maintain one account with a local bank or credit union where you can deposit cash and initiate online transfers, and a second with an online financial institution that offers no-fee banking with a good interest rate and ATM-fee reimbursement. Research the available options in your community, but note that federal law limits monthly withdrawals from a savings account to six before penalties kick in.

For Immediate Release
New York, October 31, 2008 — Community members and the registered nurses of Terence Cardinal Cooke Medical Center (TCC) will hold a candlelight vigil on Wednesday, Nov. 5, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. to protest proposed cuts in nursing positions. The vigil will be held outside the hospital on Central Park East (Fifth Avenue) between 105th and 106th Streets.
The facility is planning on eliminating 18 RN positions, leaving very fragile patients with fewer skilled nurses to care for them. TCC plans to replace the RNs with LPNs, who by law cannot assess the condition of patients, develop and adjust nursing care plans, administer certain treatments and medications, or function independently of an RN or other authorized professional.
"Many TCC patients require the level of care that only a registered nurse can provide," Christina Terranova, RN, New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) nursing representative "We are concerned that this could be the first phase in a long-term plan to replace RNs with LPNs, to the danger of the patients we serve."
TCC is a long-term care facility treating patients with Alzheimers, Parkinson's Disease, AIDS, and Huntington's Disease; and also children and adults with severe developmental disabilities. TCC is a member of the Catholic Health Care System.
The New York State Nurses Association is the voice for nursing in the Empire State. With more than 36,000 members, it is the state's largest union and professional association for registered nurses. It supports nurses and nursing practice through education, research, legislative advocacy, and collective bargaining.

Turnover (employment)
This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2009) |
In human resources context, turnover or staff turnover or labour turnover is the rate at which an employer loses employees. Simple ways to describe it are "how long employees tend to stay" or "the rate of traffic through the revolving door". Turnover is measured for individual companies and for their industry as a whole. If an employer is said to have a high turnover relative to its competitors, it means that employees of that company have a shorter average tenure than those of other companies in the same industry. High turnover may be harmful to a company's productivity if skilled workers are often leaving and the worker population contains a high percentage of novice workers. Companies also often track turnover internally across departments and divisions or other demographic groups such as turnover of women versus turnover of men.
In the United States, the average total non-farm seasonally adjusted monthly turnover rate was 3.3% for the period from December 2000 to November 2008.[1] However rates vary widely when compared over different periods of time or different job sectors. For example, during the period 2001-2006, the annual turnover rate for all industry sectors averaged 39.6% before seasonal adjustments,[2] during the same period the Leisure and Hospitality sector experienced an average annual rate of 74.6%.[3]
When accounting for the costs (both real costs, such as time taken to select and recruit a replacement, and also opportunity costs, such as lost productivity), the cost of employee turnover to for-profit organizations has been estimated to be between 30% (the figure used by the American Management Association) to upwards of 150% of the employees' remuneration package.[4] There are both direct and indirect costs. Direct costs relate to the leaving costs, replacement costs and transitions costs, and indirect costs relate to the loss of production, reduced performance levels, unnecessary overtime and low morale. The true cost of turnover is going to depend on a number of variable including ease or difficulty in filling the position and the nature of the job itself.
In a healthcare context, staff turnover has been associated with worse patient outcomes.[5]
Internal versus external[edit]
Like recruitment, turnover can be classified as "internal" or "external".[6] Internal turnover involves employees leaving their current positions and taking new positions within the same organization. Both positive (such as increased morale from the change of task and supervisor) and negative (such as project/relational disruption, or the Peter Principle) effects of internal turnover exist, and therefore, it may be equally important to monitor this form of turnover as it is to monitor its external counterpart. Internal turnover might be moderated and controlled by typical HR mechanisms, such as an internal recruitment policy or formal succession planning.
Internal turnover, called internal transfers, is generally considered an opportunity to help employees in their career growth while minimizing the more costly external turnover. A large amount of internal transfers leaving a particular department or division may signal problems in that area unless the position is a designated stepping stone position.
Skilled vs. unskilled employees[edit]
Unskilled positions often have high turnover, and employees can generally be replaced without the organization or business incurring any loss of performance. The ease of replacing these employees provides little incentive to employers to offer generous employment contracts; conversely, contracts may strongly favour the employer and lead to increased turnover as employees seek, and eventually find, more favorable employment.
Voluntary versus involuntary[edit]
Practitioners can differentiate between instances of voluntary turnover, initiated at the choice of the employee, and involuntary turnover initiated by the employer due to poor performance or reduction in force (RIF).
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics uses the term "Quits" to mean voluntary turnover and "Total Separations" for the combination of voluntary and involuntary turnover.
Causes of high or low turnover[edit]
High turnover often means that employees are unhappy with the work or compensation, but it can also indicate unsafe or unhealthy conditions, or that too few employees give satisfactory performance (due to unrealistic expectations, inappropriate processes or tools, or poor candidate screening). The lack of career opportunities and challenges, dissatisfaction with the job-scope or conflict with the management have been cited as predictors of high turnover.
Each company has its own unique turnover drivers so companies must continually work to identify the issues that cause turnover in their company. Further the causes of attrition vary within a company such that causes for turnover in one department might be very different from the causes of turnover in another department. Companies can use exit interviews to find out why employees are leaving and the problems they encountered in the workplace.
Low turnover indicates that none of the above is true: employees are satisfied, healthy and safe, and their performance is satisfactory to the employer. However, the predictors of low turnover may sometimes differ than those of high turnover. Aside from the fore-mentioned career opportunities, salary, corporate culture, management's recognition, and a comfortable workplace seem to impact employees' decision to stay with their employer.
Many psychological and management theories exist regarding the types of job content which is intrinsically satisfying to employees and which, in turn, should minimise external voluntary turnover. Examples include Hertzberg's two factor theory, McClelland's Theory of Needs, and Hackman and Oldham's Job Characteristics Model.[7]
Thomas suggests that there tends to be a higher level of stress with people who work with or interact with a narcissist, which in turn increases absenteeism and staff turnover.[8]
On the other hand, low turnover may indicate the presence of employee "investments" (also known "side bets")[9] in their position: certain benefits may be enjoyed while the employee remains employed with the organization, which would be lost upon resignation (e.g., health insurance, discounted home loans, redundancy packages). Such employees would be expected to demonstrate lower intent to leave than if such "side bets" were not present.
How to prevent turnover[edit]
Employees are important in any running of a business; without them the business would be unsuccessful. However, more and more employers today are finding that employees remain for approximately 23 to 24 months, according to the 2006 Bureau of Labor Statistics[citation needed]. The Employment Policy Foundation states that it costs a company an average of $15,000 per employee, which includes separation costs, including paperwork, unemployment; vacancy costs, including overtime or temporary employees; and replacement costs including advertisement, interview time, relocation, training, and decreased productivity when colleagues depart. Providing a stimulating workplace environment, which fosters happy, motivated and empowered individuals, lowers employee turnover and absentee rates.[10] Promoting a work environment that fosters personal and professional growth promotes harmony and encouragement on all levels, so the effects are felt company wide.[10]
Continual training and reinforcement develops a work force that is competent, consistent, competitive, effective and efficient.[10] Beginning on the first day of work, providing the individual with the necessary skills to perform their job is important.[11] Before the first day, it is important the interview and hiring process expose new hires to an explanation of the company, so individuals know whether the job is their best choice.[12] Networking and strategizing within the company provides ongoing performance management and helps build relationships among co-workers.[12] It is also important to motivate employees to focus on customer success, profitable growth and the company well-being .[12] Employers can keep their employees informed and involved by including them in future plans, new purchases, policy changes, as well as introducing new employees to the employees who have gone above and beyond in meetings.[12] Early engagement and engagement along the way, shows employees they are valuable through information or recognition rewards, making them feel included.[12]
When companies hire the best people, new talent hired and veterans are enabled to reach company goals, maximizing the investment of each employee.[12] Taking the time to listen to employees and making them feel involved will create loyalty, in turn reducing turnover allowing for growth.[13]
This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. (January 2010) |
Labour turnover is equal to the number of employees leaving, divided by the average total number of employees, multiplied by 100 (in order to give a percentage value). The number of employees leaving and the total number of employees are measured over one calendar year.
For example, at the start of the year a business had 40 employees, but during the year 9 staff resigned with 2 new hires, thus leaving 33 staff members at the end of the year. Hence this year's turnover is 25%. This is derived from, (9/((40+33)/2))*100 = 24.66%.
Over the years there have been thousands of research articles exploring the various aspects of turnover, and in due course several models of employee turnover have been promulgated. The first model and by far the one attaining most attention from researcher, was put forward in 1958 by March & Simon. After this model there have been several efforts to extend the concept. Since 1958 the following models of employee turnover have been published.
- March and Simon (1958) Process Model of Turnover
- Porter & Steers (1973) Met Expectations Model
- Price (1977) Causal Model of Turnover
- Mobley (1977) Intermediate Linkages Model
- Hom and Griffeth (1991) Alternative Linkages Model of Turnover
- Whitmore (1979) Inverse Gaussian Model for Labour Turnover
- Steers and Mowday (1981) Turnover Model
- Sheridan & Abelson (1983) Cusp Catastrophe Model of Employee Turnover
- Jackofsky (1984) Integrated Process Model
- Lee et al. (1991) Unfolding Model of Voluntary Employee Turnover
- Aquino et al. (1997) Referent Cognitions Model

Editor's Note: Broncos' Vice President of Corporate Communications Jim Saccomano is in Canton, Ohio, this weekend as part of the team's contingent for Floyd Little's enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Throughout the weekend, Saccomano will be phoning in some thoughts and observations on Little's big weekend.
Tonight, Floyd Little will see himself in bronze. He'll come face-to-face with the bust of a much younger man, a symbol of all the years that went by before his recognition. His son Marc will present him, and nobody would be surprised if Little shed tears during his speech.
"Floyd's in his 60s," Saccomano said. "Many of the people that he played with, many of the coaches he played under are no longer with us. His mother has passed away. There will be a lot of emotion tonight I'm sure."
Yesterday, Little participated in an equally emotional ritual at the Canton Civic Center. At a Hall of Fame ceremony, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell handed Marc Little an emblematic gold blazer on a center stage surrounded by every living member of the Hall, families, and friends like Jim Saccomano. Marc Little slipped the blazer onto his father, marking him a member of one of the most exclusive fraternities in sports.
Little saved the speech for tonight. As Saccomano tells it, the Bronco legend embodied pure class, looking out 360 degrees from center stage and taking a bow to all four corners of the room.
"Floyd acted like Floyd acts. He took the stage elegantly," Saccomano said.
Ther ceremony was held after an exclusive luncheon for Hall of Famers, informally called the Nitschke luncheon because of how much former Green Bay Packers linebacker Ray Nitschke used to love the event. A terror on the field but a warm man off of it, Nitschke used to work the room at the luncheon with somuch affection that his name attached itself to the event. The luncheon is an opportunity for all the members of the Hall to share what the membership means to them, and the jacket ceremony is held afterward.
Saccomano compared the experience of entering the jacket ceremony for the former players to that of a new bride walking down the aisle.
"The part where he's walking in there, it had to be staggering," he said. "This is the moment where it's all about you. Seriously, how different from a young woman walking down the aisle for a wedding?
The Hall of Famers were all doling out hugs, kisses and handshakes to the newest members of their club in accordance with the happy occasion.
Another newly minted Hall of Famer, Pete Rozelle Radio-TV Award winner Chris Berman, spoke for 23 minutes. Saccomano said the speech wasn't a minute too long.
"It was one of those, 'I love pro football' speeches," Saccomano said. "He was long, but he was riveting. Anytime someone has a passion for what he does, I think you appreciate it more. It was terrific."
Berman's broadcasting partner, former Broncos linebacker Tom Jackson, was also at the event. Saccomano said Berman mentioned Jackson in his speech, hoping that one day Jackson would be standing at the same podium as a recipient of the Rozelle award.
Once Jackson and Saccomano made eye contact, the old friends rushed over to catch up with each other. Since 1973, Jackson has had an uninterrupted career in pro footall as either a player or an announcer
"We've known each other a long, long time," Saccomano said. "Every time Tom and I see each other it's literally a hug and a kiss. Tom's had quite a career."
Some other attendees with Broncos ties included announcer Jim Gray, a huge Little fan who has long lobbied for his induction, Tom Graham, father of Daniel Graham and Broncos alumni himself, Billy Thompson, a Broncos Ring of Fame member, and Fran Lynch, Little's roommate throughout his professional career.
Little's Broncos head coach Lou Saban's grandchildren were also in attendance. Saban's grandson now plays quarterback at Mullen High School under Dave Logan.
Each inductee had a following of family and friends in town to support them in addition to the town of Canton itself, which completely centers on the induction ceremony this time of year.
Canton held a parade today, and Saccomano said there were around 200,000 people attending. Here's a little perspective. There are only about 80,000 people in canton and about 210,000 people in nearby Akron.
Close to 4,000 civic volunteers contribute to the event by helping shuttle people around the crowded town and work the logistics of the event.
It's all for the stars like Little, who comprise around one percent of the population to play pro football, and who's contributions inspired a nation of fans.
"It's the league where nobody can make a play," Saccomano said. "Nobody can cover the wide receiver, but nobody can beat the defensive back. Nobody can block the pass rusher, but you can't get past the stud offensive tackle. Every guy is great. Every guy is a Hall of Famer."

Basketball: Utah scouting report
By Jeff Faraudo
Friday, January 13th, 2012 at 8:17 pm in Basketball, Gameday.
TIPOFF: 7:30 p.m. Saturday at Haas Pavilion. TV: CSNCA. Radio: 910-AM.
A trap game for the Bears?
Not likely.
First of all, Utah's competitive 68-65 loss at Stanford on Thursday — in which the Utes led by four points with 15 minutes left — allows coach Mike Montgomery to get his team's attention.
Then there is the simple fact that Cal is the Pac-12′s best home team this season, and the Utes the league's worst on the road. The Bears will have to play better offensively than they did in a 57-50 win against Colorado, but they will.
The subplot here is the connection between Montgomery and Utah first-year coach Larry Krystkowiak.
Krystkowiak played the low post for Montgomery at Montana, averaging a double-double each of his final three seasons, including 22.2 points and 11.4 rebounds as a senior in 1985-86.
"A long, long time ago, his senior year, he ended up getting drafted in the NBA and I got the Stanford job," Montgomery recalled this week. "We shook hands and said, `That kind of worked out for both of us, didn't it?' He's a really good guy."
Krystkowiak spent his rookie season in the NBA playing for the San Antonio Spurs, where his teammates included rookie guard Johnny Dawkins, fresh out of Duke and Krystkowiak's coaching adversary two nights ago at Stanford.
Krystkowiak played nine NBA seasons, but his best was in 1988-89 when he averaged 12.7 points and 7.6 rebounds for the Milwaukee Bucks. That same year, Montgomery coached Stanford to the NCAA tournament for the first of 12 times.
Montgomery said early in the week he hadn't seen enough of Utah to provide much of an evaluation. But he remembers how Krystkowiak attacked the game.
"He played like his life depended on it," Montgomery said. "He was very, very tough — a tremendous competitor. He was a load inside, trust me."
ABOUT THE UTES: Clearly the most helpless team in the Pac-12 for the first month of so of the season, Utah has made strides recently. The Utes are better defensively and more competitive. They surprised Washington State, winning 62-60 in overtime at home, just six days after losing by 44 points to Colorado. Since then, they lost 57-53 to Washington, then 68-65 at Stanford. Thursday's performance left Krystkowiak encouraged.
"The focus for us has been battling and competing on the road, we haven't done that all year," said Krystkowiak, whose team lost its first four road games by an average of 30 points. "There have been stretches in games where we played with a road mentality. But I thought our guys couldn't have played any harder. It came down to some little things, missed blockouts on free throws, and any time you're 1-of-9 at the free throw line . . .
"It was encouraging that we did this on the road. Beyond that it's still pretty rough because we were in a position to win so it always hurts. I told our guys a long time ago, if we play hard I don't care if we win lose or draw, as long as we don't cheat the game. I think they are starting to grasp that concept a little bit."
While the Utes have climbed to fifth defensively in conference-only games, allowing just 64.5 ppg, they remain a poor offensive club. They are averaging only 52.8 points the past five games. They are shooting just 52 percent from the FT line in Pac-12 play, 39.6 percent from the field, 25.6 percent from the 3-point arc. Plus, they rank last in the league in rebound margin.
THE SERIES: Cal leads 9-8. The Bears won the most recent meeting, a 72-69 decision at Salt Lake City on Dec. 10, 2008. Harper Kamp scored 12 points off the bench in the win and Jorge Gutierrez, then a freshman, played 17 scoreless minutes. The only Utah player still active is Carlon Brown, who scored 15 points but is now playing for Colorado.
MISCELLANY: Cal was the top-rated Pac-12 team according to the RealTimeRPI.com rankings on Friday, sitting at No. 33. No other conference school was in the top 50. Utah was No. 266 . . . Cal is 12-0 at Haas Pavilion this season . . . Thursday's win over Colorado was the Bears' first all season after trailing at halftime.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Good golly! I recent spent nearly a week in our nation's capital, where the temperature was a sizzling 98 degrees. And while I perspired through a few business meetings, I knew that at the end of the day I would be sipping some lovely beverages. I did just that and then enjoyed an anniversary dinner at my favorite D.C. restaurant.
Washington is a very underrated food town, and that's a shame because the city just brims with a bevy of eateries that rival establishments in some of the more recognized culinary burgs such as New York City, Chicago and San Francisco.
My absolute favorite dining address is the Obelisk Restaurant, on P Street in northwest Washington. There is no sign on the unimposing building housing the small, one-room Tuscan restaurant, but once you've experienced the food, you'll always find your way back for more.
The four-course prix fixe menu is $70 a person, but it is worth every cent and more. The wine list is very small, but well selected with an excellent sampling from Tuscany.
Before the meal began, we were treated to four appetizers that were so good it was hard to imagine that the courses to come could be any better. They weren't -- but they were just as good!
How about these little ditties for starters: imported Italian Burrata (a fresh cheese made from mozzarella and cream) with extra-virgin olive oil, thinly sliced smoked duck breast with black cherries, fried stuffed baby artichokes and cheese-stuffed zucchini flowers.
The meal that followed included porcini ravioli with a sage butter sauce, black bass with peppers and fennel, and lamb chops with sweet onions and rapini. A cheese course and dessert capped off the meal. A bottle of 1999 Podere Brizio Brunello Di Montalcino was liquid silk and a perfect match for the ravioli, lamb, appetizers and cheese course.

Optical-Resolution Photoacoustic Microscopy: Auscultation of Biological Systems at the Cellular Level Biophysical Journal, Volume 105, Issue 4, 20 August 2013, Pages 841-847 Song Hu and Lihong V. Wang Abstract Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) offers unprecedented sensitivity to optical absorption and opens a new window to study biological systems at multiple length- and timescales. In particular, optical-resolution PAM (OR-PAM) has pushed the technical envelope to submicron length scales and millisecond timescales. Here, we review the state of the art of OR-PAM in biophysical research. With properly chosen optical wavelengths, OR-PAM can spectrally differentiate a variety of endogenous and exogenous chromophores, unveiling the anatomical, functional, metabolic, and molecular information of biological systems. Newly uncovered contrast mechanisms of linear dichroism and Förster resonance energy transfer further distinguish OR-PAM. Integrating multiple contrasts and advanced scanning mechanisms has capacitated OR-PAM to comprehensively interrogate biological systems at the cellular level in real time. Two future directions are discussed, where OR-PAM holds the potential to translate basic biophysical research into clinical healthcare. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (2208 kb) |
Photoacoustic imaging in cancer detection, diagnosis, and treatment guidance Trends in Biotechnology, Volume 29, Issue 5, 1 May 2011, Pages 213-221 Srivalleesha Mallidi, Geoffrey P. Luke and Stanislav Emelianov Abstract Imaging modalities play an important role in the clinical management of cancer, including screening, diagnosis, treatment planning and therapy monitoring. Owing to increased research efforts during the past two decades, photoacoustic imaging (a non-ionizing, noninvasive technique capable of visualizing optical absorption properties of tissue at reasonable depth, with the spatial resolution of ultrasound) has emerged. Ultrasound-guided photoacoustics is noted for its ability to provide in vivo morphological and functional information about the tumor within the surrounding tissue. With the recent advent of targeted contrast agents, photoacoustics is now also capable of in vivo molecular imaging, thus facilitating further molecular and cellular characterization of cancer. This review examines the role of photoacoustics and photoacoustic-augmented imaging techniques in comprehensive cancer detection, diagnosis and treatment guidance.

Photoacoustic spectroscopy of bacteriorhodopsin photocycle Biophysical Journal, Volume 44, Issue 2, 1 November 1983, Pages 211-218 M. Renard, P. Thirion and M. Delmelle Abstract Photoacoustic spectroscopy was applied to study the energetics and the kinetics of the slow intermediates of the bacteriorhodopsin photocycle. An analysis of the modulation frequency dependence of the photoacoustic signal allowed us to estimate the enthalpy changes and the kinetic parameters associated with those intermediates. The effects of pH, salt concentration, and protein aggregation were studied. Three photoacoustic transitions were found. The two low frequency transitions were attributed to O660 and M412, respectively. The third transition was interpreted as resulting from a protein conformational change undetected spectrophotometrically. The frequency spectra were simulated between 5 and 180 Hz at pH's 5.1, 7.0, and 8.9 assuming a branching in the bacteriorhodopsin photocycle at the M412 level. The enthalpy changes associated with M412 and O660 were computed and compared with the experimental values. Abstract | PDF (891 kb) |

A method that can rapidly quantify variations in the morphology of single red blood cells (RBCs) using light and sound is presented. When irradiated with a laser pulse, an RBC absorbs the optical energy and emits an ultrasonic pressure wave called a photoacoustic wave. The power spectrum of the resulting photoacoustic wave contains distinctive features that can be used to identify the RBC size and morphology. When particles 5–10 μm in diameter (such as RBCs) are probed with high-frequency photoacoustics, unique periodically varying minima and maxima occur throughout the photoacoustic signal power spectrum at frequencies >100 MHz. The location and distance between spectral minima scale with the size and morphology of the RBC; these shifts can be used to quantify small changes in the morphology of RBCs. Morphological deviations from the normal biconcave RBC shape are commonly associated with disease or infection. Using a single wide-bandwidth transducer sensitive to frequencies between 100 and 500 MHz, we were able to differentiate healthy RBCs from irregularly shaped RBCs (such as echinocytes, spherocytes, and swollen RBCs) with high confidence using a sample size of just 21 RBCs. As each measurement takes only seconds, these methods could eventually be translated to an automated device for rapid characterization of RBC morphology and deployed in a clinical setting to help diagnose RBC pathology.

Fregola with Sauteed Cherry Tomatoes & Basil...& Grilled Porterhouse
It's been a hectic Friday, one that began at 2 am when Nick screamed "MOMMY!!!"
It was indeed an emergency: Ducky (the lovey of his life) was lost. Or more precisely, on the floor. A few more hours of fitful sleep (me, not Nick), then it was off to teach step class at 6am, and a full morning and early afternoon of filming cooking videos for GalTime. Nick and I whopped it up at the park for the rest of the afternoon, and by 6:30 pm, I was utterly pooped. I could think of few things more comforting than a glass of wine and big bowl of pasta.
"Let's have steak," Kevin announced.
But it all worked out.
I appreciate Kevin for so many things, including broadening my eating habits. When we met in graduate school, my mealtimes were more sporadic, and I did not eat anywhere near enough protein (except excessive amounts of peanut butter). This was mostly due to the expense of meat (and my meager funds), but also because I am, apparently, part rabbit. Vegetables, fruits, salads, yogurt, and pasta are my default comfort foods (ok, sweets, too), whereas Kevin is a meat-first man. He firmly believes that steak, for instance, is brain food, and that anyone denied an occasional Friday-night steak is surely suffering from some gross form of neglect.
And now, after a few years of mealtime tug-of-war, that's ok with me. I've come to appreciate the occasional grilled steak, and Kevin is not so much conceding to vegetables and pasta as he is savoring them. So it was both grilled porterhouse and fregola with tomatoes and basil for dinner. And it was exactly what we both wanted and needed. Here's to happy marriages of all kinds.
Fregola with Sauteed Cherry Tomatoes & Basil
Fregola sarda is a small, bead-like pasta made from semolina; sometimes it's called Italian or Sardinian couscous. If you live in a more urban area than mine, you may be able to find it in your supermarket. Central Market in Texas carries it, as does Whole Foods. I've also ordered it from my second favorite grocer, Amazon. If you cannot find it, you can substitute any small pasta or Israeli couscous, which is quite similar.
1 cup fregola sarda (or Israeli Couscous, Orzo, or other small pasta)
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 cup packed fresh basil leaves
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the fregola until al dente, 10 minutes. Drain.
2. While pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and garlic. Cook and stir 5-6 minutes until tomatoes burst and begin to break down. Add the drained fregola, basil, lemon juice, and cheese., tossing to combine. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

For the reasons set forth in the court's Memorandum Opinion, the court finds that plaintiffs have not shown that they are "likely to prevail" nor that they have a "substantial case" on the merits. The court carefully and thoroughly reviewed all issues raised by the parties and its lengthy Memorandum Opinion represents the product of its time and effort. It does not foresee a "substantial" case for reversal. ... The court has found that plaintiffs are not likely to be able to show that Sections 10, 12, 27, 28, and 30 [of the law] are due to be enjoined. Alabama has an interest in enforcing laws properly enacted by its Legislature and not likely to be found unconstitutional.
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website], joined by several rights groups, appeared before the court last month [JURIST report] to make arguments against the law's enactment, at which point Blackburn issued the temporary injunction to forestall enactment of the challenged provisions while she evaluated their contention with federal statute. Religious groups and representatives of several rights groups including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the National Immigration Law Center (NILC), the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) [advocacy websites] have stated that the Alabama law is the most extreme of the recent state anti-immigration laws influenced by controversial Arizona SB 1070 [JURIST news archive]. Alabama lawmakers have defended the legislation, which was signed into law [JURIST reports] in June. Since that time, 16 countries filed briefs [JURIST report] in the Alabama district court against the controversial law, arguing that it provides unfair treatment to citizens of those countries currently residing in Alabama and sanctions discriminatory treatment based on ethnicity.

I saw this flick many times as a child and always enjoyed. However, until I chanced upon this article from Jewish World Review, I had no idea that my beloved Stooges were the the second in Hollywood to release a film mocking Hitler:
It turns out that the screen comedy trio of Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard (Moe's little brother) made the first Hollywood films to satirize and lampoon Adolf Hitler and his Nazi government. And these shorts, daring for their time, are included in the just-released DVD set "The Three Stooges Collection, 1940-1942, Volume Three" (two discs, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, $24.96, not rated).
"You Nazty Spy!" hit the theaters in January 1940, nine months before Charlie Chaplin's "The Great Dictator." It was a time when most of the Hollywood studios remained reluctant to address — dramatically or comedically — the Nazi state, its persecution of Jews and the war Germany had started in Europe in 1939.
The timidity of the studio heads was based on several factors — they didn't want to close down the European market for Hollywood films, and they were being pressured from conservatives and isolationists in Congress who opposed U.S. involvement in the European war and were concerned about Hollywood making "propaganda" films attacking the fascists. Warner Bros. broke the ice with its 1939 production of "Confessions of a Nazi Spy," but, as film historian Michael E. Birdwell writes in his book, "Celluloid Soldiers: Warner Bros.'s Campaign against Nazism," the studio faced the opposition of the Production Code Administration (Hollywood's censors). Its director, Will Hays, stated that given the nation's policy of official neutrality, no studios could produce any more anti-Nazi films.
But that didn't deter the Three Stooges and Columbia Pictures from making "You Nazty Spy!," written by Clyde Bruckman and Felix Adler and directed by Jules White. Historian Lynn Rapaport, writing in the San Diego Jewish Journal, points out that film shorts were not as closely regulated or censored as feature films, so perhaps the Stooges' efforts were unnoticed or ignored.
"You Nazty Spy!" was released with a disclaimer, "Any resemblance between the characters in this picture and any persons, living or dead, is a miracle," which was patently ridiculous because the short depends on Moe's physical resemblance to Hitler — particularly after he pushes his hair back on one side and gets a piece of black tape stuck to his upper lip.
But at one particularly perilous time in history, these three Jewish comedians, these Three Stooges, fought back against the fascists with the only weapon they had — their sense of humor.
