Unless I am reading it wrong, "Spatial and temporal heterogeneity of marginal emissions" is making a rather unfortunate mistake. At night, coal-fired power plants are generally online but trying to run at low capacity. They often have to simply not generate as much electricity as the fuel allows, because the demand is not there while at the same time a complete shut down is difficult.
In those conditions the fuel mix may be 100% coal and extremely dirty, yet the marginal CO2 emissions are zero! If I read the paper correctly, they assume the marginal CO2 emissions per kWh at that time are the same as the average CO2 emissions per kWh, which is obviously completely wrong. I must have missed something, because surely no one could make such a mistake in an actual paper.

Krauthammer Rips Krugman's Claim Republicans Are Stealing Food From Babies and Pregnant Women
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman on Friday made the idiotic claim that House Republicans are stealing food from babies and pregnant women.
Later that evening, appearing on PBS's "Inside Washington," syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer demonstrated just how foolish Krugman's assertion was (video follows with transcript and commentary):
GORDON PETERSON, HOST: New York Times columnist Paul Krugman: "House Republicans are literally stealing food from the mouths of babies — nutritional and pregnant women and very young children, one of the items on their cutting block — so they can pose, falsely, as deficit hawks."
Peterson got that quote wrong. Here's the correct one from Krugman's column Friday:
House Republicans, in particular, are literally stealing food from the mouths of babes — nutritional aid to pregnant women and very young children is one of the items on their cutting block — so they can pose, falsely, as deficit hawks.
But I digress:
CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: Let me explain to you what these cuts are, the so-called cuts. Obama increased the baseline budget of all of the departments by an average of 24 percent in two years. If you add in stimulus, it's over 80 percent. The cuts are from this artificially inflated, hugely inflated, baseline he created it. If you compare, for example, the home heating oil subsidy, it is cut in half, that's the worst. It's a barbarian measure?
NINA TOTENBERG, NPR: It's his cut, too.
KRAUTHAMMER: It's because since 2009, it's been doubled. So all that's happening is with the cut you are going back to pre-recession levels. The norm. These are called Draconian cuts.
COLBY KING, WASHINTON POST: That is the difficulty in talking about this issue. Yes it's right about that particular provision, but there also other provisions in the debate where it's not, your scenario does not apply. For example, if you are going to zero out spending for the Presidio, a small item, the impact has nothing to do with the baseline budget. It is because somebody wants to do that. Or if you want to cut out money for enforcement of the SEC. These are legitimate issues to talk about.
TOTENBERG: Or you cut out enforcement of Medicare fraud.
KING: Don't trivialize the debate over food for infant children. Those are important discussions, but that's not the only discussion. The bigger ones will come later.
KRAUTHAMMER: I'm trying to say that with all of the cuts, we are higher than we were in 2008 and 2009, and I didn't hear any of you complaining in those years about women and children going hungry.
One of the things that worried conservatives regarding the explosion in spending in the past two years was that the claim much of it was emergency oriented to end the recession was absolute nonsense, and instead the raised level of outlays would become the new baseline from which future budgets would start.
As we can now see from the squawking of people like Krugman, King, and Totenberg, that's exactly what's happened.
These folks totally ignore that the budget has grown by a staggering 41 percent in the past four years, and that much of the additional spending was sold as temporary.
Now that Republicans - and voters in the last elections! - want to cut this budget back down to something approaching pre-recession levels, the Left and their media minions are predictably accusing them of stealing food from babies and pregnant women.
It would be laughable if it is wasn't so serious.

The superficial twit
Submitted by stratman on Sat, 02/19/2011 - 8:36pm.
The superficial twit Totenberg probably read a headline about the $225 Million Medicare fraud busts this week. Some were in your neck of the woods (see here and here). Some of my favorites are the Russian owned physical therapy businesses that billed $57 Million for what are alledged "back rubs", the Detroit podiatrist who billed $110 per clip for 20 toenail clippings on just 3 toes of a single patient (a little cut here, a little cut there and it adds up!), and the Brooklyn proctologist who billed 10 hemorrhoidectomies on a single patient (yeah, right!)

Wow, Noel, you really are on a roll today! It's good to see that the liberals are so, how shall I put it, desperate to try to show some type of improvement under the Obama administration while, in actuality, showing us all how badly Obama has handled the situation. All they can offer to date is that, after only thee years of Obama policies, the situation is far, far worse than it was in 2008, when Bush was still in office!
Do they even know what their telling us? They're saying: cut federal spending and people will now die of starvation because they can't even afford to feed themselves any more. According to Krugman himself, twice as many people need federal assistance, are facing starvation, after just three years of the Obama administration than needed that assistance during all 8 years of the Bush administration! Let me repeat that: TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE! That's NOT a very good indicator of how well Obama has handled the economic situation.

It's my pet peeve when people misuse the word literally then proceed to use a metaphor. They are not "literally stealing food from the mouths of babes." That would mean they are physically sticking their fingers in infants mouths and removing actual food. To me it makes the speaker seem ignorant. As if he's using words he doesn't quite understand the meaning of.
It seems as if they use literally instead of truly, which I suppose they have to use to differentiate it from the rest of the deceptive lies and half-truths they spew.

This dissertation examines three chamber music pieces by contemporary Syrian composers that use the clarinet, looking for different elements drawn from traditional Arab music and how they are used in a western contemporary context. The three works studied in this dissertation are: Qunitet by Shafi Badreddine (b.1972), Buhur by Kareem Roustom (b. 1971), and Quintet for the Damascus Festival by Dia Succari,(1938-2010). From analysis of these works and from conversations I had with the composers, these central topics emerged: 1) how they use the muwashshah as a source of inspiration and 2) how they use maqam. Using the muwashshah as a departure point, Roustom uses poetry meters in the entire piece, Badreddine only uses its general form and titles, while Succari based a number of his compositions on the main theme of a famous muwashshah. While Roustom and Succari approach the maqams in a way that is somewhat less unconventional, Badreddine subjects them to a microscopic treatment that focuses on the qualities of a specific interval (or intervals) in a given maqam. A central aim of this dissertation is to study how knowledge of Arab music affects the overall performance of these works, and to question whether these works challenge the performer differently from other western classical music works. Through this research it became clear that such challenges do exist, and that a comprehensive performance of any musical work can only be achieved if work is put into learning the fine nuances specific to the culture from which the composer drew inspiration.
My chief objective in this project is to draw some connections between queer studies and environmental studies within the more general context of literary studies. I will propose an alternative understanding of literary environmentalism, rich in tropological abundance, poetic complexity, and hermeneutic indeterminacy, and I will magnify a queer sensibility, present in varying degrees, in this history, or what I call "queer environmentality." In order to develop this queer-environmental literary theory, I perform careful exegeses of four key figures in the American tradition: Thoreau, Melville, Cather, and Djuna Barnes. Each writer problematizes conventional notions of the strange matrix between the human, the natural, and the sexual, and thus challenges the assumption that the subject of American environmental literature is essentially and consubstantially heterosexual. Each brilliantly demonstrates the ways in which the queer project and the environmental project are always already connected, that is to say, in which the questions and politics of human sexuality are always entwined with the questions and politics of the other-than-human world. Like Charles Darwin, the four primary objects of my analysis--Thoreau, Melville, Cather, and Barnes--believe in reconsidering the human as a natural being, as a species, or type of being, that occupies a particular niche in the order of things, and, therefore, as subject to the explanatory gestures afforded to other species that also constitute and populate their particular biological kingdom. But figuring the human as natural does not provide a stable ontology, nor does it permit an escape from all kinds of epistemological problematics. Like Henri Bergson, each thinker takes seriously the profound connection between ontology and epistemology and offers long meditations on the super-saturation of life--human and otherwise--with desires and aims, with indeterminate geneses and inexplicably deferred endpoints. Thoreau's sinewy sense of "sensuality" within the animal-human-divine matrix, Melville's symbolic struggle with extra-human forces, Cather's cryptic musings on the singularity of organic composition, and Barnes's biologically inflected--perhaps infected--decadence all point to an environment as explosive with meaning, with "interlinked terrors and wonders" (Moby-Dick 139), as the creatures that dwell within.
This study offers a new approach to understanding the role of nostalgic performances carried out by second-generation Indo-Guyanese Americans through ethnic institutions as a route into the American mainstream. The Indo-Guyanese are an Indian Diaspora group who arrived in the Caribbean during the Indian Indenture and who have been "twice removed from India." They have limited or no ability to speak Hindi, but their religious beliefs (Hinduism and Islam) have enabled them to maintain certain Indian traditions (e.g.. wearing saris). However, they have also adopted several Caribbean cultural practices, such as musical tastes, that have augmented their cultural hybridity. There has been a significant Indo-Guyanese migration to Queens, New York since the early 1990s, which has led to the creation of an Indo-Guyanese ethnic enclave which facilitates the provision of cultural goods, services and houses of worship. Taking Gans' (1979) concept of symbolic ethnicity a step further, my research shows how the American born children of this unique immigrant group carefully select traditions from their hybrid mix of Indian and Afro-Caribbean cultures to attain racial recognition in New York. Additionally gendered expectations significantly shape the Indo-Guyanese identity. Gendered pressures create and augment disparities between men and women in the second generation as they move towards negotiating their ethnicity within the American mainstream. Inter and intra-generational gendered expectations usually place women in the position of maintaining ethno-religious traditions, which may set limits on their ability to achieve an assimilation status similar to second-generation Indo-Guyanese men within the American mainstream. Therefore, I show how New York provides a space for ethnic navigation and negotiation with gendered constraints.
ABSTRACT Carbohydrates as Scaffolds for Bioactive Agents By Stewart Bachan Mentor: Professor David. R. Mootoo Carbohydrates are attractive templates for drug design because of their accessibility, highly functionalized structures and rich synthetic chemistry. The goal of this research was to design mimetics of two classes of biologically interesting molecules using carbohydrate scaffolds. These are beta-D-galactosylceramide (GalCer) and the tetrahydrofuran (THF) containing AAs. The emergence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains of HIV-1 has created a need for new therapeutic agents. The glycolipid GalCer has been shown to be a cofactor in HIV-1 infection as it mediates the binding of the HIV envelope protein gp120 in CD4+ cells. Mimics of GalCer can serve as potential entry inhibitors of HIV-1. 1,1-Linked galactose-mannose (Gal-Man) and glucose-mannose (Glu-Man) disaccharides with an ester on the Man subunit were found to bind to the V3 loop peptide of gp120 and inhibit HIV infectivity in single round infection assays with the TZM-b1 cell line (a derivative of the HeLa cell line that express CD4, CXCR4, and CCR5). IC50 values were in the 50 micromolar range with no toxicity to the cells at concentrations up to 200 micromolar. These compounds appear to inhibit virus entry at early steps in viral infection since they were inactive if added post viral entry. Although these compounds were found to bind to the V3 loop peptide of gp120, it is not clear that this interaction is responsible for their anti-HIV activity because the binding affinity of closely related analogs did not correlate with their antiviral behavior. The low cytotoxicity of these 1,1-linked disaccharide fatty acid esters, combined with their easy accessibility to structurally diverse analogs, make these molecules attractive leads for new anti-viral agents. The THF-containing AAs have drawn much attention because of their potent antitumor activities. Their mode of action involves the inhibition of the NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase, Complex 1, of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. Their generally high cytotoxicity to both normal and tumor cells has hampered their development as anti-cancer agents. Thus acetogenin analogs that show increased specificity towards cancer cells are of interest as new therapeutic agents. Acetogenin analogs in which the THF core was replaced with either a monosaccharide or disaccharide framework were synthesized and evaluated against various cancer cell lines. The monosaccharide analogs showed antitumor activity in the low micromolar range and were generally more active than their disaccharide counterparts. It is also noteworthy that varying the degree of oxygenation on the monosaccharide ring did not show any significant effect on cytotoxicity. These structure activity observations open up possibilities for the design of tumor selective monosaccharide analogs that target carbohydrate receptors that are overexpressed on tumor cells.
Policy makers and correctional authorities are seeking ways to enhance effectiveness of incarceration and reduce recidivism. Equine-facilitated prison-based vocational programs aim to rehabilitate inmates. Informed by the theories of attachment and desistance, this study evaluates the emotional and behavioral effects of such an intervention utilizing a quasi-experimental methodological triangulation design. Recidivism and disciplinary misconduct are examined by clinical data-mining of institutional records. Propensity Score Matching, binary and multinomial logistic regressions are applied in a discrete-time event history analysis. Semi-structured interviews revealing the subjective experiences of participants are analyzed via the Listening Guide methodology. Quantitative questionnaires, exploring attachment and closeness to horses as compared to humans, are analyzed by linear regressions. Quantitative findings suggest that program participants have a statistically lower chance to recidivate as compared with the control group. Otherwise, a reduction in the severity of disciplinary misconduct was not found. Findings of the questionnaires suggest that horses are approached as attachment figures, including all four features, while higher levels of attachment and closeness to horses were evident among older participants with stronger attachments to their mothers. Qualitative findings show the roles of human-horse relations within prison-context. Emotional features highlight the importance of providing alternative opportunities to experience companionship, which may help inmates process their relational issues and improve competencies. Additionally, the program helps inmates to cope with psychological impact of imprisonment. Behavioral features demonstrate how the program allows inmates to perform as mature individuals while being involved in meaningful activities, which can generate pro-social skills. Social learning exhibit how participants interpreted herd dynamics by projecting human interactions on horses. These could be further discussed to enhance social awareness and develop alternative approaches toward social situations. Furthermore, participants' evaluation of the program and vocational features reveal vocational skills that may be transferable to other settings. Adding an intervention that would help bridge between experiences in the program and other vocations after release could enhance the program's broad impact. Knowledge gleaned from this inquiry has practical implications for the program, and suggests that rehabilitative approaches toward corrections can contribute to a more humane treatment of this population while also benefiting society.
Community colleges have been criticized for having lower graduation rates than four year colleges, but few studies have looked at non-graduation transfer, in which a student leaves the community college for a four-year college without taking an associate degree. The current study utilizes institutional data and a discrete-time event history model to predict non-transfer attrition in community colleges. The data utilized include five years of institutional data from 21,724 first-time freshmen from the six community colleges of the City University of New York. The study includes students who resided in New York City and its two adjacent suburban counties and who matriculated in the fall of the 2004 and 2005 academic years. Multinomial logistic regression was employed in an event history model of student absence and transfer; models were developed for both the first and second spells. Data on students who transferred were obtained from the National Student Loan Clearinghouse (NSLC). Continuation or type of leaving following each semester constituted the dependent variable. Many of the risk factors for leaving were related to academic performance. Students who were writing proficient and who had higher GPAs and more credit completion were more likely to remain enrolled or to transfer; students who failed were more likely to leave. Notably, course withdrawal was a greater risk factor for leaving than course failure. Financial aid in the form of grants and loans was associated with a decreased risk for attrition, and weekly travel was associated with an increased risk for leaving as well as an increased risk for transfer. Smaller class size and time spent on campus and especially in class was associated with lower risks for attrition. Three models were employed, two of these modeled transfer as separate form of leaving; one included transfer together with graduation and continuation as a successful semester outcome. Parameters obtained from the 2004 cohort were applied to the 2005 cohort to assess each model's predictive validity in a naïve dataset. The most successful model for the first spell correctly identified 34.6 percent of the leavers in the semester in which they left, with a 35 percent false positive rate. The most successful model for the second spell identified 49.6 percent of leavers with a 30.8 percent false positive rate. If a false positive rate of 50 percent is allowed, about 60 percent of leavers in the first spell and about 80 percent of the leavers in second spell can be detected. Remedial study does not present a risk, but the data suggest that remedial education may be using too much of a student's grant money. It is suggested that additional study may be needed to determine how to effectively remediate students in math and writing, and that a model for course withdrawal and failure using interim grades be developed. Since withdrawal and failure present acute risks, it is suggested that a student's fitness and prerequisite skills for courses be assessed prior to course enrollment. Since many of the risk factors are interrelated, it is suggested that a structural model may be needed to assess each predictor's relevance.
The splicing of precursor messenger (pre-m) RNA, during which noncoding intervening sequences are excised and flanking coding regions ligated, is an integral reaction of gene expression. In eukaryotes, it is carried out by a dynamic RNA-protein complex called the spliceosome, in which five small nuclear (sn) RNA components are actively involved in recognition and chemical aspects of the process. A complex formed between U2 and U6 snRNAs is implicated in the chemistry of pre-mRNA splicing. The catalytic activity of the U2-U6 snRNA complex is dependent on the presence of Mg2+ ions, and the complex has been shown to have several specifically bound Mg2+ binding sites in vitro. The overall goal of this research is to characterize the conformational changes of the human U2-U6 snRNA complex upon addition of Mg2+. In order to pursue this question, we attempted to characterize the lowest energy structure of the complex in the absence of spliceosomal proteins using a combination of biophysical and biochemical techniques in the solution state. We first used enzymatic structure probing to evaluate the secondary structural fold of protein-free human U2-U6 snRNA complex. Cleavage patterns resulting from probing reactions were consistent with formation of four stem regions surrounding the junction, therefore favoring the four-helix model consistent with previous results of in vivo studies of the human U2-U6 snRNA complex. However, 19F NMR studies from our laboratory also identified a lesser fraction (up to 14%) of a three- helix conformation. Upon addition of up to 100 mM Mg2+, a slight increase in cleavage by enzymes specific for both single-stranded and double-stranded regions was observed at the junction region, suggesting that this region is becoming more accessible, perhaps because of an increase in the fraction of the three-helix conformation. Analytical ultracentrifugation studies revealed that the Stokes radius of the RNA complex decreased slightly from 31.3 Å to 27.9 Å in the presence of 100 mM Mg2+, suggesting a slight compaction of the tertiary structure in the presence of divalent metal ions. Hydroxyl radical footprinting experiments on this complex showed signs of increased protection in some areas near and more distant from the junction upon addition of Mg2+, suggesting a change in three-dimensional conformation. Therefore, it appears that Mg2+ induces a small three-dimensional conformational change on human U2-U6 snRNA complex. In order to build a three-dimensional model for the four-helix conformation, we designed a mutant that favors the formation of four-helix conformation and performed SAXS experiments on it. The preliminary SAXS studies suggest that the human U2-U6 snRNA complex and the mutant complex may also be amenable to further study by SAXS. These results act as a good starting point to characterize further the overall global conformation of human U2-U6 snRNA complex and effects of spliceosomal proteins on it.
This dissertation repositions "aesthetic" in its ancient Greek context, meaning to apprehend by the senses. The project is framed around my idea of the aesthetic autobiography, a creative work that phenomenologically conveys the embodied experience of its author. I do not use "aesthetic" as a transcendentalist term of critical assessment, as defined by Kant; instead, the term denotes the immanent realm of the senses. This move allows me to connect the aesthetic to affect, whose etymology I trace from the mid 18th Century to contemporary affect theory. I theorize the aesthetic as a dynamic and relational biophysical force. I aim to extend the boundaries of autobiographical "truth" in order to accommodate the feeling body, which exists in excess and often beyond the reach of conceptual language. Specifically, I examine how five post-war authors formally confront the challenge of conveying the sensation of depression. By focusing on formal experiments in rhythm, syntax, structure, imagery, and genre, I look at texts by Allen Ginsberg, Joan Didion, Tim O'Brien, Art Spiegelman, and Darryl Cunningham. Grounding the project in mid-twentieth century America, chapter 1 begins with Edmund Wilson's "The Wound and the Bow" (1941), which situates the psychologically wounded artist as a vital and connective social force. In chapters 2 and 3, I juxtapose the respective approaches of Ginsberg and Didion in articulating the physiological experience of a depressive breakdown. Chapter 4 focuses on The Things They Carried, by Tim O'Brien, as a self-consciously constructed aesthetic autobiography: I show how "postmodernism" responds to representing the sensational body after the "death of the subject" and I argue for its affective possibilities. Finally, in chapter 5, I turn to graphic memoir, with Art Spiegelman's "Prisoner on the Hell Planet" and Darryl Cunningham's Psychiatric Tales: 11 Graphic Narratives of Mental Illness. I explore the formal strategies available to cartoonists in conveying the bodily affect of despair
Various metal and semiconductor nanowires have been developed as building blocks for electronics, optics, and sensors devices. Among these, new nanowires developed on biomolecular templates got more attention since the molecular recognition functions of these biomolecules with specific ligands can be employed to immobilize nanowires onto specific locations to establish desired device geometries. In order for their application in electronics, optics, and sensors device fabrications, after configuring device geometries with nanowires by the biomolecular recognition, we focused upon the biomineralization function of peptides on the nanotemplate sidewall to develop various material coatings such as metals and semiconductors for electronics and sensor applications. It should be noted that the coating morphology such as particle-domain size and inter-particle distance on the nanotemplates could be tuned by peptide sequences and conformations. We launched the genetically modified recombinant collagen-like triple helix proteins as a biorecognition, size-controlling and rigid biotemplate. This collagen-like triple helix is the genetically engineered polypeptide assembly that contains a fragment from the natural collagen sequence and has attractive features in hybrid nanomaterials. The length of the protein nanowire is uniform since it is determined by the number of amino acids. The length can be flexible if we genetically modify the sequence, which can also add chemical functionality by the genetic engineering procedure. Genetic engineering is more advantageous than the chemical synthesis for the functionalization /deritivization of peptide nanowire because only the desired specific residue of the peptide is functionalized by the genetic approach. The specific sequence can also increase stability so that the mechanical property can be tuned to be suitable for device application in harsh environment. By using the recombinant technology, it is possible to design and amplify a collagen-like triple helix that is monodisperse, easily mineralized with metal/ semiconductor precursors, and therefore can be applied as a rigid biomolecular template for metal/semiconductor nanowire fabrications. Moreover the production of triple helix can be large scaled up by means of the cell multiplication. As continued work based on previous study of the application of C7 glycylglycine bolaamphiphilic peptide, the self-assembly of doughnut-shaped nanoreactors from monomer peptides with silica precursors was studied, and uniform size silica (SiO2) nanoparticles were obtained. Possible mechanism in terms of chelating and catalysis functions of the peptide was formulated.
Gauss' identification of a composition law for primitive integral binary quadratic forms of given discriminant D--which provides the set FD<\sub> of SL2<\sub>(Z) equivalence classes of such forms with a group structure--essentially amounts to the discovery of the class group of an order in a quadratic number field. We consider quadratic extensions of the field of rational functions k(u), where k is an algebraically closed field, and seek an analogue of Gauss composition in this context. A quadratic extension of k(u) corresponds to the function field of a curve C with affine model t2<\super> = D(u) for some polynomial D = D(u) in k[u], which is of odd degree if and only if C has a smooth ramified point at infinity. Focusing on this case--the analogue of quadratic number fields with one complex place at infinity--we extend the notion of the degree of a Weil divisor on a curve to Cartier divisors on C, and find a bijection between the set of SL2<\sub>(k[u])-equivalence classes of primitive forms with coefficients in k[u] of discriminant D, and the group Pic0<\super>(C) of isomorphism classes of degree zero lines bundles on C. In parallel fashion, we reinterpret the arithmetic case using Arakelov's invention of metrics associated to the infinite places of a number field. Given an invertible R-module L for R a quadratic ring of discriminant D and fraction field K, we have for each infinite place v of K a corresponding one-dimensional C-vector space Lv<\sub>, with a positive non-degenerate hermitian metric. Using a notion of degree of an invertible metrized module--which mirrors the notion of degree used in the geometric case, yielding in both cases a "product formula" deg(f) = 0 for a principal divisor (f)--we establish for D < 0 a bijection between FD<\sub> and the compactified Picard group Picc<\sub>0<\super>(R) of isometry classes of degree zero invertible R-modules.

Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
Seen a lot of posts on concerns people have with different areas of the vikings right now. On the positive side here's what I've seen so far:
1) Daunte Culpepper is the man, with him running the offense you gotta believe the Vikings are going to put points on the board.
2) Deep receiving corps. I've yet to see a dropped ball by a Vikings receiver in the pre-season. Burleson impresses me, Taylor impresses me, Williamson has shown flashes of brilliance, Robinson hasn't made the catches I would have liked to seen, but he's being productive with yardage (defensive penalties on his man, good yardage on simple routes). Even the 5-6 guys like howry and hoag don't drop the balls. TE's same thing, they all catch it. With culpepper delivering the ball you just want to know your guys are going to catch it.
3) Defensive talent. No they haven't gelled yet, but I've seen a lot of great individual talent. P. Will much needed. Quarterback pressures and sacks at times look impressive. E. james I think will make big plays this year. The linebacking corps is better than last year (still have a long ways to go in understanding their reads). I'll leave the d-backs out for now as the games I've seen haven't shown me much there yet (although I believe this will be one of our biggest strengths as the year goes on and will highlight a lot of the linemans talents by giving them a chance to bounce the quarterback around).
4) Edinger. Hey we might have a field goal kicker. Not saying he's the best in the league, but 4-4 with a 50 yarder is better then I've seen in a long time with the Vikes.
5) Adimchinobe Echemandu --- gotta love saying that name. He was impressive in a banger style of running against the Chargers. This guy is built for 30+ carries a game. Like to see a kid who plays this hard make the team.
Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
I dont feel like typing that much, but i'll stat a few things that I thought went good for us so far..
Pep is definitley the man.. He can run and complete 85 percent of his passes in preseason.. Im stoked to have him running the show..
We need work on the running game and our O-line
Sharper is definitley an upgrade over Russell..
EJ has been a plesent surprise for sure..
Erasmus has been getting pressure and p-will stopping the run
Smoot is being vocal
Im about done its not much but we have alot to look forward to! SKOL VIKES!

Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
Hey guys,
I haven't seen someone say it so far, but, Chavous is playing pretty solid! The games I have watched, he has made some good sticks flying up from his spot. I definatly think he is the hard hitting safety we all so coveted in Darious. Just give Sharper and Chavous a bit more time to gel, and they will be a solid duo.
Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
the vikings are doing some really solid tackling. not many missed tackles, it seems."There is good and there is evil. And evil must be punished. Even in the face of Armageddon I will not compromise."
Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
I definitely agree on the tackling. It seems to definitely have improved. All the missed tackles I saw last year made me cringe.Zygi Zagi Zygi Zagi Oy Oy Oy!!!

Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
I think one of the biggest surprises of the preseason so far have been the LB's, and especially EJ. I remember us having a debate about who the starting WLB should be, and we left EJ out of it. He came out of nowhere and has had a monster preseason.
So far from what I've seen of the preseason, and I missed the Chargers game, the LB's have been around the ball and have actually made tackles. The last few years, you could never say that. One guy would have the odd good game where he'd have a bunch of good tackles, but mostly they were out of position and missed tackles.
Thanks PPE for the sig.

Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
I'm gonna say it again cuz I think he'll go unoticed a lot this year. Kenechi was a monster on friday, that S.O.B. can fight. Our front D line is going to eat offenses for breakfast (mostly morning games out west). They are seriously going to crush the pocket this year. Like poppin' ugly zits. QB puss all over the field.
was that too far? over the top?
Go D!
Re: Positives from the Vikes in pre-season.
Ive only seen the Jets game, being here in florida without sunday ticket....But I did notice that I liked the way Corey was playin. He was movin to the ball and makin beautiful tackles. From what I've herd our LB corps is lookin better, especially E.J. and that makes me really excited. I think our dline will come in tact. I listened to a interview with Kevin Williams and he predicted us in the top 10, maybe even better, so i like that. I cant be happier with our WR's...well robinson is showin his age. But the Rook, twilly is makin me happier every game. Nate boogy is lookin like a proven number 1. Our running game as exspected is gonna need so work. But we have talent. The O-line has realy pi$$ed me off...the penalties and not creating the holes for the backs isnt good. But given its preseason i'll let it slide. I dont even need to say how amazing culpepper is. He will have a great year! so thats my opionion!-SKOL!
Theres NOTHING greater then a Florida Gator!

One Way for Margaret Street Merewether NSW 2291
We, the undersigned, petition Newcastle City Council to make Margaret Street Merewether NSW 2291 into a one way street. Traffic flow is to be from Morgan Street to Llewellyn Street with parking restricted to the left hand side of the flow of traffic.
When vehicles are parked on both sides of the street there is often not enough space to allow vehicle access or services like garbage collection to pass.
As property owners or residents or regular users of this traffic way we ask that this change be made as soon as possible.
Thank you.

Sarbanes Announces Nearly $600,000 for Enhanced Prenatal Care at Hopkins
Funding will improve care for low-income women and children in Baltimore
WASHINGTON – U.S. Congressman John Sarbanes (D-Md.) today announced the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has awarded nearly $600,000 to Johns Hopkins for enhanced prenatal care through its Strong Start for Mothers and Newborns initiative.
"All women deserve high-quality health care as they prepare for motherhood," said Congressman Sarbanes. "This funding will allow Hopkins to deliver quality care to more women in Baltimore and help give their children a healthy start in life."
Children born pre-term require costly medical attention, often require early intervention services and special education, and can develop conditions that may affect their health and productivity as adults. HHS has awarded $590,904 to Johns Hopkins to test prenatal care initiatives aimed at reducing pre-term births among high-risk women in Baltimore who are enrolled in Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
The Strong Start for Mothers and Newborns initiative is an effort by HHS to reduce pre-term births and improve outcomes for newborns and pregnant women. Grants made through the program will enhance care by expanding access, improving coordination, and providing psychosocial support to pregnant women.

text: Found this at our local Stock Sales which has a Tuesday morning flea market. The guy was asking $400 for it it took me about 3 weeks but I ended up trading him some stuff for it. It's a monitor drinking fountain well pump. Works and looks kind of like a toilet bowl. You pump the handle a few times and it fills the reservoir allowing you to stop pumping and come around and get a drink. It flows just like a school water fountain with a single stream of water lasting around 20 seconds. I had never seen anything like it. They were primarily used in state parks and campgrounds. This one can be ran by a windmill or pump jack also. I restored it over the winter and fixed it up to take to shows.

MALONE — Organizers hope events like the Winter Carnival parade here today will continue to spark a revival of community spirit in Malone.
Beginning at 10 a.m., more than 50 participating groups and organizations will make their way down Main Street (Route 11) from Brewster Street behind the Franklin County Courthouse to Morton Street, said Parade Coordinator Andrea Dumas.
"We've got schools, the fire department and several local businesses that are going to be part of it," she said.
The theme of this year's parade is "Let's Make a Scene from Stage to Screen."
The grand marshal is Ann Main, wife of late County Court Judge Robert G. Main and mother of current County, Surrogate and Family Court Judge Robert G. Main Jr.
Mrs. Main, who was salutatorian of her class at Franklin Academy in 1944, worked in the office of U.S. Sen. Alexander Wiley of Wisconsin before returning to Malone to work.
Following her 1950 marriage, she served as a religious educator and later as the longtime director of the Notre Dame Catholic Church program and was a founding member of the St. Vincent de Paul store.
Mrs. Main, 85, designs and knits baby caps and has been a volunteer at Alice Hyde Medical Center, served on the Academic Board of Trustees at Franklin Academy and was inducted into the school's Academic Hall of Fame in 2012.
Leading the parade will be the Malone American Legion Post 219 Color Guard and Upstate Correctional Facility Color Guard, with Malone Village Police Chief Chris Premo.
Members of the Franklin County Legislature, Malone Town Council and Village Board will walk the parade route, along with an assortment of floats, clowns, horses from Sayward's Classic Carriage Service, children from St. Joseph's Elementary School dressed as Dr. Seuss characters and more entries.

vacation rental description
Stunning 7 bedroom villa located in Emerald Island. Emerald Island
is a gated resort community with a clubhouse which boasts a
playground for the kids, workout facilities, game room, internet
cafe, a receptionist to help with any questions, public pool, tiki
bar, and sand volleyball. It's entrance is absolutely beautiful with
a lighted fountain and bridges to the gates with "spitting" dolphins
to greet you and sometimes our friendly neighborhood armadillo.
Our home is literally a five minute drive from Disney. Convenience
is everything when you're on vacation. We searched for a home that
allowed us to visit the parks and run "home" to relax for awhile and
then go back, maybe to see the fireworks etc. We found Emerald
Island to be that place. It's located in a quiet area but still so
close to everything.
We have 2 ensuite bedrooms, each having king size pillowtop beds.
One ensuite master is downstairs with a separate shower and soaking
tub combination and private doors to the pool area. The other

Bio and Links
I'm a Yankee transplanted to South to pick up the pieces of a life gone awry. After spending a great deal of my life in school studying history and working in the museum field, I have now settled on computers as a new outlet for my interest in history. My family's history can be traced back to at least the Norman Invasion of England and I (with my sister) descend from kings of the Scottish Celts, Irish Celts and Norman Scots, which I have known for as long as I can remember -- my history always being a part of my present. Because I grew up going to cemeteries with my parents to visit the graves of relatives, I have a long-standing affinity for burial places, whether a dolmen in Ireland or a weed filled forgotten family plot. My idea of relaxing when my mind is in turmoil is to go clean the graves of those long gone and forgotten, just to let them know that someone thought about them. My blog will be a place where I can showcase my interest in death art via photographic journeys through cemeteries and finding noted articles of interest. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in having me perform any research or photograph a grave in my area for your genealogy.

I was wondering if you could take a picture of my grandfather's grave marker. His name is Charles Dilke O'Connor and is buried in Evergreen Cemetery.
I just created his memorial and intend on adding to it, as he is buried in a family plot.
If you could do this I'd greatly appreciate it.

King of the Nerds, Episode 5: on physical labor, booty-shaking, and swords
Ben's thoughts
Genevieve was the image of success at the beginning of this week's episode and, as expected, there was very little mourning for Alana. The first challenge involved putting together a large cube, and then solving a Sudoko puzzle that cube's faces. As Genevieve pointed out, each piece was just a little too big and heavy to be moved by one player, so teamwork was essential. This was kind of a theme with both competitions this week. Mental ability is one thing, but solving puzzles and remembering the location of objects in the final matching game becomes much harder when you add in physical challenges. Trying to put that cube together, when you can't move single pieces by yourself without help, is a hard challenge. Sudoku may have been easier if they let one person tackle it, instead of everyone putting their hands in to try to figure out the puzzle. It's hard to focus under these circumstances and, sometimes, one person is better than a team.I felt the same way about the final challenge of the Nerd-Off. Matching the items may look easy on your television, although the existence of a barbarian and knight sword was kind of cruel, but try to do so after getting hit in the privates with a tennis ball, or getting tossed around by a sumo wrestler. In fact, did anyone else notice how much fun that wrestler seemed to be having? He was getting paid to toss nerds around! It was like a workout and a paid gig all in one. The flight simulator seemed interesting, although far from the most advanced simulator I've seen, and Ivan's weird little power trip when he tried to intimidate Virgil was weird. Sophie, do you think that was appropriate? The whole thing made me feel uncomfortable. I will admit that there is nothing wrong with Danielle and Moogega spanking each other with Nerf swords. That's quality television. Yes, I know I'm being a hypocrite.
Sophie's thoughts
Ivan's power trip was one of the most uncomfortable things I have ever seen on television, tantamount to an abusive partner lording over their significant other. "Look me in the eyes…" Uh… No. Dude, you are in peoples' personal space when you're clearly not wanted, acting like a petulant child. Piss off. Or, take your own words to heart from earlier in the episode and realize people need to vote with their heads, not their hearts. Take it as a compliment that you were the one they chose! They see you as a threat; a strong competitor!Ivan's not the only one, either. When Team Blextrophy came from behind to pull off the surprise win in the Nerd War, Danielle started badmouthing them. It's one thing to be disheartened that you lost, another to say someone sounds like a hyena and make fun of the fact that they're happy. This is the second Nerd War Team Blextrophy has won, and (unless editing removed it) the first time they've gotten a reward for their efforts. Give 'em a break. I'm sad. I really liked Orange Team right from the beginning. Josh was charming in a way, Danielle embodied sassy girl power, Brandon was a-dork-able and funny, and Ivan gave off an air of confidence. Help me Moogega, you're my only hope. Ben, have I been rooting for the wrong team all this time?
Ben's advice
Are we really rooting for teams? The reality game strategy is usually to start with two teams, whittle them away, combine the remaining contestants into a single team, and then whittle that down to a winner. I'm not really concerned with this or that team, I'm looking at individuals and how they play the game. At this point it does seem like the cracks are starting to show. Danielle threw that hissy fit when her team lost, Ivan did the weird threatening maneuver, the booze was consumed a little quicker. I think people are starting to feel the pressure, and things are going to get a little intense.Overall though, this was a fun episode. The two challenges combined brains and brawn in an interesting way, the flight simulator looked fun, the final challenge was tense and showed both men really struggling for the win. It's interesting that Joshua was knocked out, as I had assumed he was going to go farther in the game. That's what I've said about damn near everyone knocked out except Alana though, so what do I know? Also, any episode where the hosts chide each other for incorrect use of the word "literally" is worth watching. I also thought the drunk scenes were fascinating. You have two women who are clearly having a good time with each other, but the sexual nature of the play makes the guys nervous and anxious, and it seems like they want to stick around and participate, but they also want to leave the situation. I thought this was a pretty relatable situation for many of us. I'm tired of the suave, confident people I see in most reality shows, so it was kind of nice to see that environment cause insecurity and fear instead of people just hooking up. I also wonder if all the sexual play acting continued the way it did BECAUSE it made the men in the room so uncomfortable. It was an interesting dynamic. Sophie, did this make you feel uncomfortable, or were you cheering it on?
Sophie's response
This was probably my least favorite episode thus far, due in large part to how uncomfortable several of the scenes were, the drunken butt-spanking among them. I'm not going to lie, Danielle and Moogega are very pretty ladies, and they were wearing booty shorts, and… ahem. Somehow I've lost my train of thought. God I feel creepy. Like that time Peter Griffin went to sensitivity training at a woman's camp and told the girl hugging another girl, "Now smell her a little."I wonder if, now that we've lost so many contestants, the show will turn into more of a Real World-style program. With fewer and fewer people to highlight and show to the cameras, perhaps personal drama and life in Nerdvana will take center stage. I liked that idea when there were still multiple people I enjoyed watching, but now all my favorite contestants have been knocked out! Josh grew on me quick, and I was genuinely sad to watch him go. As soon as I could see he wasn't going to win, I wanted to turn the TV off and scream. Tell me it's not true! I'm glad that each episode is starting to feel more distinct from one another, with more memorable moments outside of the Nerd Wars and Nerd-Offs. Last time it was the slap to Josh's cheek, this time it was butt spanking. Ivan took the competition to more aggressive place that didn't fit the light-hearted feel of the show, so I hope that goes away. A little bit of drama between contestants is enjoyable, but watching someone get into someone else's personal space to try and intimidate them was just creepy. Still, I'll remember what he did, and I'm sure the network likes it when people remember their show, for good or bad behavior. Also, apparently Moo loves sex. Which is… I guess that's nice, and something we needed to know. I don't… hey, is it hot in here? I feel like it's… really, really warm in here. Ahem.

"My cards turned out great. The colors are fantastic. I thought the wording/title went nicely for my situation... a VERY late new year's card. I liked that it didn't say Happy New Year on it."
"I couldn't be happier with this card! I've been sending holiday cards through Tiny Prints for several years and have always been impressed with the quality of the products but I have to say that this card is my very favorite of all! I love the bright colors and unique design and how every photo just naturally blended beautifully with the rich color palate. This is a very busy time of year for me at work and Tiny Prints makes it possible for me to send cards to friends and family by offering the "address and mail " option, saving me precious time that I can't spare. It's so worth it!"
"We wanted to find a card that had some "non-traditional" colors to go along with our pink cozy coupe that our daughter was driving in the photo. This card was PERFECT! Every single person that received one absolutely loved it. We have even had people tell us it was their favorite card of the year. I loved having the option of adding additional photos on the back."
"The card arrived quickly and was beautiful and of high quality. Our photograph printed wonderfully and fit perfectly with the card's design. We have ordered from TinyPrints in the past and will continue to do so, so long as this level of quality,beauty and service continues. Thank you."
"This was the easiest time I've ever had creating a Christmas card. I used the live chat while deciding which photo to use, and the gentleman that answered my questions couldn't have been any more helpful and patient! I sent attachments of photos and he would suggest which ones would look best, based on hi res quality. It was nice to be able to craft the cards at home---choosing B&W, with a white vignette feel---all while knowing that help was just a few keystrokes away. The cards arrived quickly and I was impressed with the quality. I've already received so many complements on the beauty and quality of the cards. Thanks again!"

The ALDS matchup between the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers has already been a bit odd, thanks to the rain on Friday that threw off the schedule. On Sunday, the rain returned, and nearly cost the Tigers a shot at the win after Alex Avila slipped on the on-deck circle in the ninth inning, just as the Yankees were mounting their comeback. What could've been a dear mistake ended up being a footnote, though, as the Tigers evened the series with a 5-3 Game 2 win.
Below are a few of the highlights from Sunday's live-blog.
The Tigers got Sunday's game started on the right foot in the top of the first, when Miguel Cabrera went deep to right. To get the full experience of the following blockquote, I wholeheartedly recommend you read the update it came from.
Miguel Cabrera got a fastball and sliced it over the right-field fence, just a few rows into the seats. This wasn't a huge surprise, considering Cabrera's one of the greatest hitters on the planet, and hit six home runs to the opposite field this season.
And surprise! Max Scherzer had something going through four innings. That something was a no-hitter. It also didn't last, but it was fun for a while!
But the fact of the matter is that, four innings in, the Yankees are still searching for their first hit. They looked to have Scherzer on the ropes in the first when he walked two straight guys and fell behind a third 3-and-0, but since then he's been outstanding, retiring ten in a row.
The Tigers added insurance in the sixth, tacking on two more runs to push their lead to 4-0, which was good because Scherzer's no-hitter wasn't going to last forever. And in the sixth, the no-hitter came to an end, but Scherzer did make it out of his start both alive and unscathed.
Don't feel too bad for Max Scherzer. By the time he escaped the inning with no damage done, he'd thrown 97 pitches and wasn't going to throw a no-hitter anyway. We can expect the parade of Detroit relievers to begin in the seventh, and this game's not nearly over yet.
After walking Nick Swisher and giving up a single to Jorge Posada in the bottom of the seventh, Scherzer's day was done. Joaquin Benoit was given the ball and he delivered, getting out of the inning unscathed.
Curtis Granderson hit a solo home run in the eighth to cut the Tigers' lead to 4-1, but that was all the Yankees would get as Benoit retired the next three batters to end the inning. Jose Valverde came on to pitch the ninth, and you'd think the Yankees would've been dead in the water. But not so!
Home run
Sac fly
As Jeff Sullivan pointed out, this was what the first six batters did. Robinson Cano came to the plate with the chance to win it, but after a wild start to the inning, Valverde buckled down and closed out the game. The Tigers hung on to win, 4-3, and head back to Detroit with the series even at one game apiece.
For more on this game, check out the rest of the live-blog and Jeff Sullivan's recap.
