Knot Theory Basics
"In the old days a love-sick sailor might send the object of his affections a length of fishline loosely tied in a true-lover's knot. If the knot was sent back as it came the relationship was static. If the knot returned home snugly drawn up the passion was reciprocated. But if the knot was capsized tacit advice to ship out."
The Ashley Book of Knots
As you can tell, love knots have a symbolic significance of tying a couple together. What other meanings can knots offer?
Imagine a piece of rope tied into a simple knot. Then imagine the two free ends of the rope spliced together. This is a mathematical knot: a closed curve. The curve may be a simple loop or it may have a number of twists and crossings. Some of the crossings may be unknottable and some may not. The central question in knot theory is whether two knots can be rearranged without cutting to be the same.
Study the following diagram. The unknot is the simplest of all knots with no crossings. Its crossing number is zero. The crossings in knot #1 are unknottable without cutting the rope. Since knot #1 can be rearranged into the unknot, they are really the same knot. Simplifying knot #1 to equate it with the unknot is like simplifying a fraction, e.g., simplifying 3/6 to the equivalent fraction 1/2.
Trefoil #1 in the diagram below has three crossings. Can you visualize why knot #2 is the same knot? (Hint: Compare the crossings.) Trefoil #2 also has three crossings, but it is not the same knot as trefoil #1 because the corresponding crossings in trefoil #2 go under where in #1 they go over, and vice versa. Trefoil #2 is the mirror image of trefoil #1.
Knots can also be added together by pulling a loop from each of two knots, cutting the loops open, and splicing them together:
The arithmetic laws of commutativity and associativity also apply to knots. A knot that cannot be unknotted to fewer crossings is called a prime knot.
This section has just been a sampler of some of the basic concepts in knot theory. For more information, visit one of the following knot theory tutorials:
All Knotted Up
Knot Theory as Mathematics
Knot theory enables mathematicians to examine and apply the following concepts:
For the Teacher:
A strand of DNA is only a few molecules wide, but it can be several centimeters long. The strand can easily become tangled inside the cell nucleus, preventing the double-helix from separating in order to replicate itself during cell division.
When the DNA strand has become knotted, special enzymes in the cell nucleus cut the strand to enable it to replicate. The enzymes then splice the loose ends once the DNA is unknotted. Chemical changes occur in the DNA structure during this process. Molecular biologists have discovered that knot theory and geometry help them analyze these changes.
For more information, see "DNA and Knot Theory Today," at the Knot Theory Online site.
| Other Tie-Ins
Physicists have also found relevance in knot theory. They have identified knotted patterns in the fluid flows, such as the atmosphere around Earth.
Knot theory has also found its way into art. See some examples of such sculpture at Symbolic Sculptures and Mathematics. Also visit the Knot Plot Site to see that art and math are sometimes difficult to distinguish from one another.
The definitive reference book on tying knots is Clifford W. Ashley's 1944 classic, The Ashley Book of Knots. In the book Ashley describes close to 4,000 knots, not only explaining how and when to tie them, but also providing a wealth of knot history and anecdotes. Ashley writes: "There are still old knots that are unrecorded, and so long as there are new purposes for rope, there will always be new knots to discover."

Reader comments are listed below. Comments are currently closed and new comments are no longer being accepted.
Consumers are very influenced by the bottle and label of a wine. And if you hype it up with a story about the soil, the weather, and the vintners, they will pay more. And enjoy it more than wine from a cardboard generic box bought at the corner supermarket.
Similarly, if you hype an instrument and highlight its legendary status, DNA genealogy and Cremona craftsmanship, many listeners will be biased to enjoy it over an new cheap generic instrument--even if there is no discernible difference in sound.
It is high expectation and marketing rather than a true rich experience.
And think most violinist should do better if they made a little speech about their violin before each performance:
Concoct a story of how their violin was hewn from 1000 year old oak tree that was felled in a great mid summer lighting storm. Constructed by blind craftsmen monks who custom select each bit of wood and use only hand tools. Their work is are considered wood sculpture and their art hangs in many world museums. All are pitch perfect musicians. And have Julliard degrees. Many have Phds in aerospace or acoustic science. And the varnish is magic made from 100 ingredients from all 7 continents and is mixed by a Doctorate in materials science who designed the ceramic tiles on the Space Shuttle.
Now let me play the scales.
It's a nice article - combining music, biology, human ingenuity and, refreshingly, something positive instead of humans blowing each other up or stealing each other's money.
But didn't you miss a trick from the science section - where the merits of the blind study are often explained? It would have been relatively simple to allow the reader (soon-to-be listener) to listen the the wav file *then* press a button to reveal the instrument?
I can indeed hear the difference in the sound of two violins.
The two violins sound new and probably by the same maker, but the violin with treated wood has a more complex sound. I can "taste" the pithy quality of the sound, which is a characteristic of Old Italian violins.
I would be pretending if I were to give an opinion on which is truly better. To my novice ears, the treated one sounded better but it could be psychological having read the article first.
My ears are too dumb to hear the difference.
As a violinist, I would advocate allowing the violinist to grade the violin rather than untrained audience. We are able to decern different bow pressure and playing technique will memifest in different violins.
Just like a food lover's desire to taste good food rather than watch someone taste it... :)
As a person with "young ears" the treated violin sounds far better than the untreated one, but I can see how some people may have a hard time spotting the difference. Now I know why people freak out over the Old Italian violins.
There are about 200 Stradivarius violins in existence. Most have been modified through the years in pursuit of a more powerful sound that could be heard through the orchestra (which itself has grown bigger and louder).
It would be interesting to know what "sounds like" means, vis-a-vis those many Strads refitted with longer necks, new coats of paint, metal strings, and played with a modern bow.
they do sound different but I wonder if some details are warped through recording. Would like to hear them in real life. Reminds me of a story told by Perlman, about how Heifetz sounded so warm and intense live in concert, but that everyone says he sounds 'cold' on recordings.
Both clips have the same pieces: 1) Brahms violin concerto 1st movement 2) Mendelssohn violin concerto 2nd movement.
The untreated violin generally has a brighter - some would say "sharper" - sound than the treated one, which gives it more brilliance in the Brahms but less warmth in the Mendelssohn. It's all a question of what you like.
Hello all,
I just read the article today on magic mushrooms and remembered a crazy theory I had once upon a time,...and that was that Stradivari was finishing his fine violins by actually dipping them in wine and then letting them dry, somehow I thought that this would actually "tighten" the wood and if done with red wine, would also add a bit of iron to the wood, there by giving it is fine sound....
Please call me crazy.
listening... I find they both play the Tchaikovski, strange nobody noticed... and neither instrument sounds really wonderful
You have reported it now.
You really haven't missed terribly much. As two other commenters noted, the treated one sounds a little smoother on the lower notes and the difference is harder to discern in the higher notes.
Too bad they did not play and record the same musical piece on the treated and untreated violins! I could tell the difference, but to ask which I like better "apples" or "oranges" is NOT a fair comparison!
That's Brahms' violin concerto in D major
The recording of the myco wood violin appears to have disappeared??
"knew that sound travels faster through healthy wood, which is stiff and dense, than it does through the soft stuff left by a fungal attack"
Sound actually travels slower in materials that are dense, it is the stiffness that makes the sounds travel faster (the increase in velocity due to an increase in stiffness in this case must be greater than the decrease in velocity due to an increase in density).
If you look at a standard equation for velocity in an isotropic elastic medium it is defined as Velocity=sqrt(modulus/density) where the modulus is some stiffness property. So we can see density is actually the denominator. interesting article though.
Oh! That! My bad! I apologize!
Thanks for the correct spelling. I learned. :) and more :)
We are getting pretty close to producing instruments which would be a technical match for the very best instruments produced by the Cremona masters.There of course would be, given human nature, those who would be prepared to pay a premium to have what they consider the genuine article.Snub appeal is priceless and there would always be retailers prepared to take advantage of this.It is human nature. As for me I cannot wait for the day when I can pay perhaps a hundred pounds to have an instrument which for all practical purposes is no different from some of the finest instruments ever made and which for most people produces music just as sweet. We've come a long way.
You said, "...picking your nit".
I don't understand at all what you mean. I don't know this English expression.
If it is rude, you have marked yourself as a rude person.
If it is not, it has no content other than what it says - neither here nor there.
In the event it is meant to be rude, there are people who go into these things a great deal more than the surface scratching contained in my reply to @Niske. The instruments resulted are coveted by professionals who'd pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for them.
I assume you are not that uninformed.
Have I picked yout nit? Or helped you get rid of something much bigger? :)

RMHC Phoenix provides a "home-away-from-home" for families traveling to Phoenix to receive medical care for their children.
If your child, or the child of somone close to you was in the hospital, you'd do anything to help. You'd do whatever it took.
That's what we do... 365 days a year.
Ronald MCDonald House Charities of Phoenix provides a "home-away-from-home" for families traveling to Phoenix to receive medical care for their children.
The families who benefit from RMHC travel far from home to receive treatment for their child at world-renowned pediatric centers located around the Valley of the Sun. Their child's treatment may last a day, a month, or even longer, and we're here for as long as they need us. Families are away from home, and often times commuting or staying at a hotel is impossible or financially challenging for a family, especially if the family cannot be together. We ask $15 per night from families, but never turn families away due to inability to pay.
Not only do we provide a place to stay for families who need one, we do our best to provide the comforts of home. Seven days a week community groups have the opportunity to provide dinner at each of our Phoenix Houses. This allows families a warm meal, and the opportunity to talk with other families who are going through similar situations. In stressful times, the simple comforts of home can make a world of difference.
By the numbers:
Give on 1 day, and RMHC will give a "home-away-from-home" to families who need it 365 days a year.

When O-lan, a servant girl, marries the peasant Wang Lung, she toils tirelessly through four pregnancies for their family's survival. Reward at first is meagre, but there is sustenance in the land - until the famine comes. Half-starved, the family joins thousands of peasants to beg on the city streets. It seems that all is lost, until O-lan's desperate will to survive returns them home with undreamt of wealth. But they have betrayed the earth from which true wealth springs, and the family's money breeds only mistrust, deception - and heartbreak for the woman who had saved them. THE GOOD EARTH is a riveting family saga and story of female sacrifice - a classic of twentieth-century literature.

Incumbent Birgit Fladager held a dominant lead late Tuesday in the race for Stanislaus County district attorney and was well on her way to winning a third term in office.
Fladager said she felt the voters recognized the good work her staff has done in the past eight years. She said, "It means a lot to me that the voters have that much trust in me and the office."
But her challenger, defense attorney Frank Carson, wasn't ready to concede the election just yet. Even if Fladager's commanding lead holds up, Carson said his effort to hold her accountable has not ended.
"I'm gonna run against her again in four years," Carson said Tuesday night. "We're not going to quit."
Fladager had 71 percent of the vote in the district attorney's race, according to unofficial results as of 10:15 p.m. Carson had garnered 29 percent.
Carson is a longtime, boisterous critic of the District Attorney's Office while working as a defense attorney in Modesto. In this contentious race, he called Fladager's management style "profoundly dysfunctional." He said her leadership was based on fear and intimidation.
Carson also was critical of Fladager's dispute with Superior Court Judge John Freeland. She ordered prosecutors to move criminal cases out of Freeland's courtroom for months until he was reassigned to civil court.
The defense attorney said the boycott of Freeland had a long-lasting negative effect. He suggested that other judges will be less likely to rule against prosecutors, for fear they also might be transferred.
Fladager spent time in her campaign responding to her challenger's claims. She said the election results show that the voters saw through all the negativity coming from Carson.
"All that nonsense Frank was putting out there was not true," she said.
Carson's campaign made about 31,000 so-called robocalls to voters. The automated calls focused on Carson's criticism of wiretaps by Fladager's office that have produced no convictions.
Fladager calls the wiretaps an effective tool to investigate homicides, criminal gang activity and major drug trafficking. She said less serious criminal activity doesn't meet the criteria needed to obtain a wiretapping order, which can be approved only by a judge.
Carson said he is gratified by the show of support for his campaign. He said it might take a grand jury or the FBI to uncover the "misconduct" carried out by Fladager's office. He said, "We're going to keep pursuing the truth."
Carson in his campaign has had to explain his connection to the Korey Kauffman murder investigation. He says any suggestion he is involved in a homicide is absurd.
Kauffman's body was discovered by hunters in an isolated area of Mariposa County in August. Carson's property was searched as part of the investigation not long after Kauffman went missing in late March 2012.
Robert Woody is the only suspect identified and arrested in the Kauffman homicide case. Three suspected co-conspirators are mentioned in court documents, but their names are not listed.
Carson has hired an attorney, who advised him not to speak about specific details with news media. His attorney says Carson wants to clear his name, which frequently has been brought up by investigators questioning witnesses and suspects in the Kauffman case.
Fladager said she had a difficult time imagining Carson as the county's top prosecutor after he has spent more than 20 years saying "terrible things" about the District Attorney's Office and its employees.
"I don't think the voters really looked at him as someone who really wanted to be DA," Fladager said.

Another in an attempt to look over the over-looked news in baseball books.
I've only just begun listening to the unabridged audio book of Bill Bryson's newest, One Summer: America, 1927, but if Richard "Pete" Peterson says it's "a good read for Cards, Cubs fans," that's good enough for me. Kevin Baker, who worked with Reggie Jackson on his Becoming Mr. October, wrote this review for The New York Times book supplement. Baker's own baseball work includes Sometimes You See It Coming: A Novel
Nicholas Dawidoff, author editor of some of my favorite baseball books, including The Catcher Was a Spy: The Mysterious Life of Moe Berg and Baseball: A Literary Anthology turning to football? Say it isn't so!
I remember when the Mets had The Worst Team Money Could Buy. Now it seems to be the Blue Jays, whose 2013 disappointment has been chronicled in Shi Davidi and John Lott's Great Expectations: The Lost Toronto Blue Jays Season, as reported by CTV News. Here's an excerpt of the book from the National Post.
I still have to post the interview I did with the editor of the new Sports Illustrated Baseball's Greatest. Actually I'm surprised there aren't more pieces like this one from the Baltimore Sun about such books "disrespecting" local favorites or omitting them altogether.
Paul Dickson, the author of too many baseball titles to mention here, contributed this review of Steve Rushin's The 34-Ton Bat: The Story of Baseball as Told Through Bobbleheads, Cracker Jacks, Jockstraps, Eye Black, and 375 Other Strange and Unforgettable Objects to The Wall Street Journal. Unfortunately, it's behind a paywall. Maybe you can access via from other methods. In the meantime, here's a review of the book, from the Eagle Tribune of N. Andover, MAss, that you can read.
And now for something completely different: Nothing's Certain in Baseball and Life, "a collection of essays from baseball color commentator Ha Il-sung, 65, who describes his passion for the sport and how it influenced other aspects of his life." This piece comes from the Korea Times.
Richard Michelson came out with a kids' book on Lipman Pike: America's First Home Run King a few years ago. Now he's spearheading a movement to have Pike enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Here's a piece on hyper-local baseball, a History of Chatham Minor Baseball Association in Canada.
An oldie but a goodie: Baseball Prospectus has rerelased Kevin Kerrane's Dollar Sign on the Muscle: The World of Baseball Scouting, the classic about baseball scouts and their process, as reported by Andy McCullough on Sports on Earth.

The San Antonio Spurs had the upper hand in the first half of the de facto three-game series against Golden State Warriors. The Spurs led Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals, 54-51, at the halftime.
A 10-5 run to start the second quarter got the Warriors back in the game after being down by as many as 12 points. The bench, led by veteran Jarrett Jack's nine points, came alive for the Warriors.
Tim Duncan led the way for the Spurs with 10 points on 3-of-9 shooting and added six rebounds. He got off to a strong start in the first quarter, scoring all 10 of his points in the first 12 minutes before the Warriors bottled him up in the second. Kawhi Leonard added nine points on 4-of-5 shooting. The Spurs shot an unsustainable 72.2 percent from the field in the first quarter and finished at 51.3 percent from the half.
The Warriors shot well in their own regard in the first half, particularly in the first quarter with a 52.4 percent mark from the field, including 3-of-6 from beyond the arc. Stephen Curry continued to show signs of injury and was clearly still hobbled by the left ankle that nearly kept him out of action in Game 4. He finished the half with seven points, while Klay Thompson added just two. Harrison Barnes picked up the slack and led all scorers with 15.
SB Nation's Rodger Sherman broke things down before the action began and looked at some keys to the game. Here's a look at them after 24 minutes of action:
How do Klay and Curry do?
Thanks to head coach Mark Jackson, the Bay Area's dynamic duo now has to live up to the "best backcourt in NBA history" moniker. So far, it's been rough going for the young guards who have struggled to find their shot early on, shooting just 4-for-16 from the field combined.
Fortunately, Barnes is emerging as a star and made up for their deficiencies.
Can the Spurs snap out of their shooting slump?
The Spurs looked like they were going to snap out of their shooting slump in a big way in the first quarter, but reverted to their old ways in the second as the Warriors' defense flustered them into tough looks.
It was a tale of two quarters for San Antonio, who shot a blazing 72.2 percent from the field in the first before coming back down to earth in the second with a sub-40 percent performance.
Can anybody grab defensive rebounds?
In such a tightly-contested game and series, extra possessions mean a lot. In the first four games of the series, one team has had 10 or more offensive rebounds seven times. That means that second chance opportunities have been abundant.
In Game 5, though, each team has cleaned up their act on the glass.
Both teams have nine offensive boards combined, and they've also managed to take care of the ball with just nine combined turnovers.
It's going to be a fun second half.

Three Annual Town Meetings Open Tuesday:
Oak Bluffs
By JAMES KINSELLA
A proposal to fund the design of a new town hall tops the warrant facing Oak Bluffs voters next Tuesday.
Additional issues to come before the town meeting include a $20.3 million budget for the pending fiscal year, the expenditure of $94,000 in ferry embarkation fee revenue, and adding the North Bluff to the Cottage City historic district.
The annual town meeting is also a prelude to two questions that will come before the voters at next Thursday's election: whether to approve the state Community Preservation Act for Oak Bluffs, and to back a nonbinding question for the creation of a new Martha's Vineyard Housing Bank.
The meeting is slated to begin at 7 p.m. in the performing arts center of the Martha's Vineyard Regional High School. Town moderator David Richardson will preside over the session.
The town hall renovation committee is recommending that the town spend $225,000 to design of a new town hall to replace a former school building on School street.
The committee said the town needs to either build a new town hall at the current site, or to renovate the existing structure. Committee chairman Michael Dutton has said that town departments need more space, and that the existing heating and other systems in the building are in poor condition.
The committee also has recommended that the town create a campus around the town hall that would include the town library now under construction and possibly a new police station.
The committee has estimated the cost of building a new town hall at about $4.1 million, with overall costs, including demolition of the existing building, coming in at about $5.4 million.
The town finance and advisory committee voted 4-1 to recommend the $225,000 design expenditure.
The town would borrow the money. Because the expenditure is within the Proposition 2 1/2 levy limit, no debt exclusion vote is needed. Debt payments are estimated at $10,000 in fiscal year 2007 and $55,000 per year for fiscal years 2008 through 2011.
Voters also will decide whether to pass a town operating budget of $20,288,457. No Proposition 2 1/2 override is needed to fund the budget, which includes a property tax levy of $18,544,593. The overall budget is up about 2.5 per cent over last year. The town finance committee voted 6-0 in favor of the budget.
Voters also will consider whether to spend $94,000 in ferry embarkation fee funds as recommended by the board of selectmen. The proposal calls for spending $42,000 for summer police officers, $25,000 for ambulance training, $15,000 for marina repairs and equipment;,$10,000 for harbor beautification and bathhouse repairs and $2,000 for civil defense radio equipment.
The Cottage City historic district commission has proposed including North Bluff in the historic district. Renee Balter, a member of the commission, said the inclusion is justified by the historic Victorian and post-Victorian buildings in the area. But businessman Mark Wallace has questioned whether the area, whose buildings are more recent than in other parts of Oak Bluffs, merits being included in the district. The proposal failed at the January special town meeting after it failed to win a necessary two-thirds majority.
Also Tuesday voters will consider whether to back a nonbinding resolution favoring the creation of a Vineyard housing bank, which would be funded by a fee of one per cent on property transactions over $750,000. The fee would be assessed on the seller of a property.
Thursday's election ballot also will include a nonbinding question to support the housing bank.
The Thursday ballot also will include a related item: whether to put the Community Preservation Act into effect in Oak Bluffs. The act would use a three per cent surtax on town property taxes to fund affordable housing, historic preservation, open space and recreation. A town committee would be established to determine to how to spend the funds. The funding mechanism would exempt the first $100,000 of all residential properties, and the tax would not apply to people who qualify for low income housing, or low or moderate income senior housing.
Advocates see the CPA and the housing bank as ways to address the lack of affordable housing on the Vineyard. Opponents question imposing more taxes on Island residents.
The community development council, a committee appointed by the selectmen to explore short and long-range issues in town, has recommended that the town adopt the CPA. The council estimates that 77 per cent of the town's taxable property owners would pay $100 or less in an annual CPA fee.
The council estimates that the CPA will raise $343,882 in local fees, which would be matched 100 per cent by state funds, generating an annual total revenue of $687,765.
A third ballot question asks whether the position of tax collector be appointed rather than elected. Voters at last year's annual meeting approved the proposed change.
If voters next Thursday approve the change, the current tax collector, Cheryll Sashin, who was elected last April, would remain in the position until April 2007.
Ms. Sashin said she has mixed feelings. On one hand, she said, the job is a skilled position, and there's no guarantee that the voters would elect a qualified person for the job. On the other hand, she said the elected nature of the position allows her to steer clear of internal political considerations in between elections, but to be responsible to the electorate for her job performance.
Ms. Sashin, who said she believes she would be appointed to the job if the change is approved, said she would like to do the job for the long haul.

New World Technology promised to remake the world through digital evolution. Having already revolutionized the way people live and work with computer implant technology and personal holographic assistants, New World Technology's teleportation devices were almost universally embraced, eliminating the tyranny of distance.
But when Jason Smith — co-founder of New World Technology — discovers the dark underside to his company's technology, he realizes he must fight everything he has ever worked to create or risk being remembered as the man who enslaved humanity.
Set in the near future, d.evolution fast forwards some of the technologies we use today and presents a time where it is commonplace for people to have neural implants and continually interact with artificial intelligence on a personal level.
The story engages with some of the ideas George Orwell first put forward in Nineteen Eighty-Four and updates the technology that Big Brother uses to control the people. In d.evolution, Big Brother isn't just watching you, Big Brother is inside your head.
d.evolution is available from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Barnes and Noble, and Smashwords.

Emergency Contraception to Go Over-the-Counter?
July 18, 2005 -- The FDA will decide by the end of the summer whether to allow the morning-after pill to be sold over the counter in U.S. pharmacies.
Health and Human Services Secretary Michael O. Leavitt stated in a letter released over the weekend that the agency will rule on nonprescription status for the Plan B emergency contraceptive pill by Sept. 1.
In response, two Democratic senators agreed to remove a block on the nomination of Lester Crawford, President Bush's pick to be the next permanent FDA commissioner.
Plan B has been available to American women with a prescription since 1999.
Concerns Over Sex Habits
Plan B is thought to prevent pregnancy principally by preventing ovulation or fertilization (by either altering transport of sperm or the egg). In addition, Plan B may inhibit implantation into the lining of the uterus. It is not effective once the process of implantation has begun.
Plan B is effective up to five days after unprotected sex, but it is most effective when used within 72 hours.
The FDA has yet to act on a year-old application from Plan B manufacturer Barr Laboratories to allow sales of the drug to women 16 years of age and older. The delay spurred complaints from family planning supporters that the Bush administration was politicizing approval of the controversial drug, which some feel may encourage teen promiscuity or discourage condom use.
A U.K. study released earlier this month showed making emergency "morning after" contraceptive pills available over the counter had not changed rates of contraceptive use or unprotected sex. Emergency contraception has been available without a prescription in the U.K. since 2001.
In late 2003, an FDA advisory panel recommended 23-4 that a similar application from Barr be approved. But the agency rejected the bid, saying that the company had not proved that Plan B is safe for women under 16. The company submitted a new application in July 2004.
FDA Weighing Scientific Evidence
"This decision rests solely with the FDA and must be made according to the scientific evidence and FDA's authority," Leavitt wrote in his letter to senators. "However, I have spoken with the FDA, and based on the feedback I have received, the FDA will act on this application by Sept. 1, 2005."
Leavitt's letter prompted Sens. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) to lift the "hold" on Crawford's nomination, which they enforced in June in an effort to force the FDA to issue a decision on Plan B.
"After more than two years of waiting, American consumers and American women will finally get an answer," the senators noted in a joint statement.
If the FDA backs over-the-counter status for the drug, women 16 and older with proof of age will be able to buy it without a prescription.
Small but vocal groups of pharmacists in several states have refused to fill Plan B prescriptions and have also vowed not carry the drug on shelves if it is approved for nonprescription sales.

It was maddening before now I look at this brochure for new bows and Im going crazy. So many good choices. Its like buying a video game system. I would like it in writing that there will be no more technological advancements after I purchase said bow. I have to admit that I'm kind of one of those speed guys. I know I'll catch some flak about shot placement and and 250fps is plenty to kill deer. What can I say I like big caliber firearms and fast bows. But I am gonna try to just soot them and pick the one that feels right for me.

Miesha Tate and Cat Zingano are set to fight at The Ultimate Fighter 17 finale in April.
Meisha, whose arm was broken backwards and beyond function, is unimpressed with the application of the same move used to wreck her?! oooook….
Cat is f****** hot, and she was nervous, which is even hotter.
"Are the juices flowing?" LOL
Steroids in general are taking a lot of the fun out of professional sports for me, especially women's MMA.
Cyborg put her opponent's safety in jeopardy with her cheating, and now it's hard for me to look at any exceedingly ripped woman like Zingano without wondering hmmmmm…. bummer.
Hating ass biatches! I'm joking..but to BE the woman, you have to BEAT the woman! Helwani stays instigating as usual..
man, id like to the the meat in that sammich
After the interview Ariel asked them if they would like to be the bread to his ugly meat sandwich.
The fight did open up holes in Ronda's game though. She taiotoshi/uchimata takedowns gi-style by wrapping left around around the neck. if she adjusted by utilizing an underhook with her left arm instead, she wouldn't rick givin up her back. In judo, giving up your back is no big deal, so you commonly see competitors doing takedowns straight to the scarf hold, then hold the position for 25 seconds and get the victory. If she keeps doing this style takedown she could actually tear cartilage in her ribs as well. It'd really be better just to change over to a left underhook and takedown to side control instead.
miesha tate I love u…hhuhhhhh huuhhh butthead sounds
I like Cat her face is a little off with a big nose but that body.
"There are holes in the game to be filled"….drifting off in to dream land…..SNAP!!…Awakened spontaneously. Estrogen and progesterone in the UFC. Silly drama. And the Janitor got the boot.
Women's mma sucks. No talent.
Cat Zingano looks like she wants to get meishas juices flowing. Shes a sexy beast
i hate rhonda with a passion.. she's the grown up Honey Boo Boo Honey Child. But it is weird hearing these ladies say they are not impress with Rhonda when rhonda already beat one of them. But i'll root for them not being impressed because i hate honey boo boo child Rousey.
Never heard of Cat, gonna look her up on YouTube and see what she's got. Miesha is sexy and talented but she is a hater talking she's not impressed with Rhonda. How could she even say that after getting her arm snapped! I don't know who's the ugliest: Cat or Cyborg. Lol.
Man, Cat is an explosion of Hotness
Good point wow.
Haters gon hate.
Ariel is getting annoying with his instigating bitch s***. "Blahblahblah one trick pony…"
And Miesha… really? You got handled by Rhonda and you're not impressed. I know a lot of people don't like her, but if you've competed against her and have been bested, you should probably show some respect.
fighters are supposed to talk s***….GSP "I am not impressed by your performance" case in point!
Juices flowing and fill in the holes sounds to me like a p*** match.
Girl on left is CUUUUUUUTE! Girl on right isn't bad either!Both better than Rousey!
omg i want a threesome with those girls right now! me rikey!
Did you guys see how Rousey was pulling on Carmouche's fingers? Big John had to warn her 3 times.
I think that's about as bad as a low-blow or an illegal knee. Breaking a finger hurts, and hinders the fighter's grappling. Not to mention it will MAKE you loosen your grip and adjust to avoid having the finger broke.
Seems really bush, and shows Rousey will cheat to win if she has to. I know some agree with cheat to win, but it's still dishonorable.
I feel like this has the potential to turn into a 80′s dance exercise video. What the hell are they wearing? Cat still manages to be cute though shes got enough color and anxiety to mimic a parrot being poked at. Also, it makes her boobies look nice.
Ronda was in a bad position with the neck crank and still come out on top..Ronda has proven her self way before mma.
how could either of these losers talk about ronda…… get out of here you men scum female fighters
Womens…Can't help theirselves,they have to bitch about other womens.Even womens who are better then them in what they do….
I wanna see these two team up against Rousey and have a massive spunk fest instead of fighting each other !!!
Ariel interviewing 2 post op transsexuals, interesting…
Im really glad womens MMA is in the UFC, these two ladies look hot, so does Rhonda…so looking forward to many more wardrobe malfunctions..but that aside, I think it adds to the sport, nothing wrong with that. I am just a bit concerned about the fairness of it, when you have a 100% woman battling someone that is a female/male hybrid such as Carmouche or Cyborg..it may not be fair to the other females …but hey..thats up to them.
Petty comments from these two ladies Tate felt the arm bar twice in one round and could not stop it even knowing Rousey was going to do it. And why didn't Tate or Cat call Dana White for the first women's UFC fight. Petty Petty ladies
Yumm yumm give me some.
miesha is f****** hot!!!
she is 1000 times hotter than rhonda, i hate that ugly bitch
They coming from a That 70′s show convention or something?

Linda Bryant
Bryant's winning project "Keeping Track, While on the Run," uses heart monitors as a means to motivate and evaluate student performance through the use of heart rate monitors. Students will wear the heart monitors during physical education class. They will use the information recorded on the monitors to compile a "sportfolio" showcasing the student's increased physical activity. Students will learn how to calculate their resting, maximum and target heart rate. They will learn the importance of training within their target heart rate zone and will keep a training log of their progress. The objectives of the program are to improve student learning by thoroughly discussing the features and purpose of the heart monitors, the risk factors for heart disease, the need for obesity prevention and the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Using the heart monitors provides a more accurate way to determine physical activity levels and student participation. Bryant lives in Ayden.

Rumors are circling that actor Bruce Willis is considering suing technology giant, Apple. According to 'The Daily Mail', he's doing it over the rights to his private iTunes account.
He reportedly wants to make sure his online music collection goes to his daughters, when he dies. Under iTunes' current terms and conditions, when users pay for songs and albums, they are essentially only 'borrowing' them.
Other online music retailers, such as Amazon and Google's Android Marketplace, impose similar legal restrictions on downloads.
Willis's wife has reportedly dismissed the lawsuit claims.

Going Mobile High-speed, wireless connections to the Internet are popping up everywhere. Here's our up-to-the-minute guide to boosting your bandwidth.
(FORTUNE Magazine) – The poor slob is sitting cross-legged on the floor of the airport waiting lounge, still sweating from his dash through the triple-digit Texas heat. He's balancing his laptop on one knee, and a phone line is stretched taut from his laptop's modem to the data port on a pay phone. He may be trying to send a file back to the home office, or maybe he's grabbing e-mail before boarding his flight. The only thing broadband about him is his waist.
Me, I'm stretched back on an almost comfy chair near my gate, a bit-eating grin on my face as I strum a laptop on my knees. I'm sucking down Web pages at maybe a couple of megabits per second--at least 20 times the speed of the dial-up modem tethered to the pay phone.
Look, Ma, no wires. The small fin of a radio-based Ethernet local area network card protrudes from a PC slot on the side of my laptop, and millions of bits are swimming between it and a little black box hidden somewhere near my gate at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. That transceiver box, in turn, taps into the Internet on a high-speed fiber line operated by an Austin company, Wayport. Transceivers are strategically placed throughout the airport, allowing me to roam seamlessly from the gate to the baggage claim area without losing my broadband connection.
Why would I want to get fast, wireless Internet access at the baggage carousel? Because it's there! The point is that the future of wireless broadband connectivity is upon us, and it promises to open up a rich new frontier of mobile services, encompassing not just data but voice, video, and audio.
Well, sort of. The Austin and Dallas airports, which went wireless this summer, are rare convergence spots for two of the hottest Internet trends today: going faster and going wireless. (Wayport says the next airports to go wireless this year will be LaGuardia, Kennedy, and Newark, in the New York area, and Seattle-Tacoma.) But as soon as I leave the airport, the trends diverge. I can be wireless, or I can be broadband, but with a few isolated exceptions--a hotel conference room, a convention center, and my home office--I cannot be both wireless and broadband at the same time.
We're still years away from the widespread availability of cheap, high-speed, wide-area, wireless connections to the Internet. So-called 3G (third-generation) cell phones and pocket communicators will eventually supplant personal computers as the most common way to swap electronic messages and grab snippets of information from the Internet, but they are just beyond the horizon.
Still, we can get a sneak peek at this wireless broadband future by looking at a variety of new products available now or coming in the next few months.
For example, Metricom (www.metricom.com) is rolling out a second-generation wireless radio modem system this fall in San Diego, Atlanta, and a few other major cities. The company says the system will eventually enable travelers to send and receive information through a laptop computer at up to 128 kilobits per second (Kbps), even while they are in the back seat of a taxicab hurtling down a New York City sidewalk at 70 miles per hour.
Metricom's Ricochet modem, about the size of a videocassette, costs $299, or less with a long-term service contract. The fixed monthly cost for Internet connectivity was not set at press time, but Metricom said it would be higher than the $50 charged for current 28.8Kbps Ricochet service. Even so, 128Kbps is so much faster than other wide-area wireless networks that it seems destined to be popular.
While we're waiting for 3G phone systems, which will start showing up in Japan and Europe next year, look for phones using the Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) wireless standard. Unlike current Web-enabled phones, which require the user to dial up an Internet connection each time he or she wants to use the Web, radio-based CDPD devices are always connected to the Net, 24 hours a day, at a data rate of up to 19.2Kbps.
CDPD can be tested today with a Palm V handheld organizer and a Novatel Wireless Minstrel 5 modem, which has a list price of $369 but is often available for less than $200 with a service contract. Novatel Wireless (www.novatelwireless.com) is also preparing to introduce a Minstrel S modem for Handspring Visor handhelds, at about the same price.
Palm Computing, meanwhile, has promised that its entire line of Palm organizers will be able to connect to cell phones via infrared link or cable to provide Internet access at cell-phone speeds--typically 9.6Kbps to 14.4Kbps. Still, that's better than the 8Kbps rate of the Palm VII. Palm's rivals, Handspring and Sony, as well as Compaq and other companies that make handheld computers based on the Microsoft Pocket PC operating system, also plan to make wireless access a standard feature.
Today's wireless speeds of 14.4, 19.2, and even 128Kbps are decidedly narrowband, but AT&T Wireless Services and Nortel Networks have said that in coming months they will begin testing wireless technologies with speeds up to 384Kbps. By 2002, if the forecasts are correct, High Data Rate CDMA technology will allow mobile connections at up to 600Kbps. And by 2003, when analysts expect 3G communicators to start proliferating in the U.S., wireless connection speeds will reach between 400Kbps and 2Mbps (megabits per second)--wireless broadband at last.
Before going any further, sticklers will note that broadband is a technical term that has nothing to do with data transmission speed. In common usage, however, it has come to mean high-speed, interactive data transmission. For our purposes, let's define broadband as at least 384Kbps, which is where video over the Internet starts to look tolerable. Some people define it as 2Mbps, some as 10Mbps. Like the definitions of "rich" or "supercomputer," the standards for earning "broadband" status will keep getting higher.
No matter what you call it, the faster you go, the better it gets (and the more it costs, of course). How good can it get? TeraBeam, a startup in Seattle, says it will begin offering gigabit wireless data services in Seattle later this year, bringing up to a billion bits per second through your office window via a laser beam and a special holographic receiver.
But we're getting way ahead of ourselves.
For most people, broadband involves wires. An estimated three million homes in the U.S. have high-speed Internet access through cable modems or digital subscriber line (DSL) services, which typically cost between $40 and $60 a month. The numbers will swell to 16 million by 2002, according to the market research company Cahners In-Stat Group.
For those who live in remote areas, or neighborhoods where cable and DSL are unavailable, not-quite-broadband alternatives include fixed wireless local loop, terrestrial television data casting, and direct broadcast satellite services like Hughes' DirecPC (www.direcpc.com).
Consumer satellite systems aren't really broadband or wireless, at least not yet. While the theoretical top download speed of DirecPC is 400Kbps--in good weather, with a clear, unobstructed view of the southern sky--mouse clicks and typed commands travel to the Internet on a regular phone line at 56Kbps. This is not ideal, but if your only alternative is a 56K modem, satellite can be an attractive option.
On top of the average $50 monthly Internet service fee, you'll need a satellite dish ($150 to $250). Plan on spending an equal amount to have it installed professionally. The companies say anyone can install his or her own rooftop dish, but don't believe them.
Once you get broadband Internet access at home, whether it arrives via wire or through the air, it is unfair not to share it with other family members or roommates. So you'll have to set up a home local area network. Consumers with a high geek quotient will want to string Category 5 Ethernet cables through the house, using power drills, 12-inch bits to bore through the walls, and a Stanley IntelliSensor DigiScan stud sensor to avoid accidentally drilling into live power lines. In other words, kids, don't try this at home. If your spouse doesn't kill you, something else might. A much safer alternative is to set up a home network using either the home's existing phone line system or--my favorite--a wireless network.
A Home Phoneline Networking Alliance (HomePNA) version 2.0 network takes advantage of existing phone lines to transfer data at up to 10Mbps. A HomePNA 2.0 card (about $70) is installed on each computer to be networked, and the PCs are plugged into a nearby phone jack.
The cleverest new use of HomePNA is in Dell's forthcoming Digital Audio Receiver, a small box that allows MP3 music files stored on a PC's hard disk drive to be played through a home stereo system. The digital audio receiver ($249, or $199 when purchased with a new Dell PC, beginning in October) has both Ethernet and HomePNA ports. The trick for many people will be finding a phone jack or Ethernet port near the stereo.
Finding a phone jack in the right location can be frustrating, which leads us back to the wireless world.
Last year, Apple kick-started the wireless home network by introducing a low-cost, high-speed system called AirPort, based on the 11Mbps IEEE 802.11b (WiFi) technical standard. Despite the daunting name, 802.11b has emerged as the leading wireless networking system.
All new portable and desktop Macintosh computers come with wireless antennas built in, and all Macs equipped with a $99 AirPort networking card can talk to one another. A sleek $299 AirPort base station allows up to ten AirPort-equipped Macs to share a high-speed Net connection, with a maximum range of 300 feet.
Both IBM and Dell said they would soon add wireless networking capabilities to their notebook computers, using the same standard that Apple pioneered. IBM's i-Series ThinkPads with a built-in wireless antenna will be released in October. But IBM's wireless networking card costs $179, compared with $99 for Apple's card, and the IBM base station costs $999, vs. Apple's $299. Dell's offerings are $167 and $909, respectively.
All 802.11b systems use the unlicensed 2.4 gigahertz frequency band, which is getting very crowded. Microwave ovens and many cordless phones use the same frequency, and the potential for interference is there.
A rival technical system, called the HomeRF shared wireless access protocol, recently won approval from the Federal Communications Commission to increase its speed to 10Mbps from 2Mbps, suddenly making it a viable challenger to the 802.11b system. The two incompatible standards will duke it out in the marketplace.
And finally, this fall will bring the first wireless networking products based on the short-range-radio Bluetooth standard, which is likely to have an impact even on people who hate personal computers. Some 2,000 companies have signed up to support the Bluetooth standard, which enables electronic devices to communicate with one another wirelessly at distances of up to 30 feet. Toshiba has just begun shipping Bluetooth cards for its laptops, as well as a Bluetooth modem. With the modem connected to a phone line, the Bluetooth-equipped laptop can tap into the Web from a nearby easy chair, without wires.
A few years from now all new household appliances--smart phones, cell phones, TV sets, kitchen appliances, digital cameras, printers, garage-door openers, air conditioners--will come with Bluetooth networking capabilities and will be able to talk to one another.
With human intervention no longer needed, I might as well take a vacation. But there is no getting away from broadband. Wayport, the company that is unwiring the Austin, Dallas, and New York-area airports, has also signed deals to offer wired broadband services to travelers in dozens of hotels and conference centers, including a deal with the Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts chain. Hotels, always looking for a way to squeeze another few dollars out of their guests, are quickly adding high-speed Internet lines and Ethernet connections to selected rooms, usually at a cost of $10 to $12 a day. Another company, CAIS Internet, is racing to offer high-speed wired services not just in Hilton hotels and shopping malls, but also on cruise ships and in truck stops.
All very comforting, but how could I enjoy my cruise knowing that back home my garage-door opener and my refrigerator might be talking about me?

Dexter is very good and adjusts very well to new situations so I shouldn't have much trouble with him settling when we move. But that doesn't stop me worrying about it. Lol. He'll be 7 months old when we move and I'm worried he won't like his new room and not sleep well. At the moment he's sleeping 10 to 12 hours a night and has done since he was 2 months old. I'm worried he won't sleep in the new house because it's different.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it as smooth As possible for him? Any suggestions would be good :)
Thank you ladies.
We lived in 4 houses during my dds first 8 months (not by choice)
She adjusted well. I always made sure her room was completely unpacked the first day and set up in as similar ways as possible, so that all her familier items were visible to her.
She adjusted well and it didn't upset her sleeping.
It's not quite teh same thing but when I go back to Scotland to visit etc we stay for a few weeks. I always make sure that I take his favourite comforters, blankets etc and stick to his routine. Maybe try and make his room smell as like the old house as possible or put a tshirt or something with your smell in the bed with him - I never had to, it was enough for Calum just to have his blankets and toys.
It might be hard to avoid over stimulating him the first day though if there are laods of people around etc but normally after the first night he should be fine I think.
Thank you :) ye the first night is always a bit hectic. That's a good idea getting his room done first. I could do that while all the men unload the rest of the van. Haha :) his got his favourite dragon toy an shark toy so I'll make sue he's got them :) x x
My son was 8 months old when we moved. We moved into a much bigger place with tons of room for him to crawl and explore so he seemed more fascinated by that then the fact that it wasn't the same place anymore. We also moved him into his own room on the first night and he was fine with that too.

December had been the month of long winning streaks in the NBA. Four teams -- the Celtics, Mavericks, Heat and Knicks -- had winning streaks of at least eight games coming into Monday night. Now, that list is down to three, thanks to the Milwaukee Bucks rallying for a shocking 103-99 win over the Mavericks in Dallas.
Brandon Jennings scored 23 points, Andrew Bogut added 21 and the Bucks' bench had 54 combined for Milwaukee in the win. Dirk Nowitzki led the Mavericks with 30 points, but nobody else had more than 14. Milwaukee trailed by 20 points at one point in the game, but used a 14-0 fourth-quarter run to take control and come away with the win.
How'd they do it? SB Nation's Bucks blog Brew Hoop credits coach Scott Skiles with using a different lineup to start the second half of the game.
The Bucks then made their move in the third, due in part to Skiles' decision to change things up at the start of the half. Ersan Ilyasova and Chris Douglas-Roberts were rewarded for their good first halves by starting in pace of Larry Sanders and Luc Mbah a Moute, respectively, and they wasted little time in helping the Bucks erase a nine point halftime deficit. CD-R slashed to the cup first in transition for the hoop and foul before drawing a bail-out foul on the next possession. Jennings also got to work, shaking off a slow start to score ten in the period--two threes and a pair of nice drives to his left.
Then, in the fourth quarter, the Bucks picked apart a Mavericks zone defense that has been shutting teams down all season. Milwaukee got some motion in their offense, keying their success. Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle was pretty blunt in his postgame assessment, via Mavs Moneyball.
"They kicked our ass. I don't know of any simpler way to say it. We're not where we need to be yet.''
Don't look now, but the Bucks have won four of their last five games, with their only loss in that stretch coming to the Heat. They're beginning to show why they were a darkhorse contender in the Eastern Conference.

Bayern Munich continue their stellar form this season with a fairly comfortable 2-0 victory against Wolfsburg on Friday evening.
The visitors controlled play from the beginning ending up with around 60% of possession. Thomas Müller had the first chance of the match for either side with a header, but it went wide of the goal.
Mario Mandzukic returned to the starting lineup and scored a spectacular bicycle kick in the 36th minute. The former Wolfsburg man scored twice in the reverse match earlier this season, but he made sure his return to the Volkswagen Arena would draw all the headlines with the stunning strike.
Müller thought he made it 2-0 just after halftime when his shot beat Diego Benaglio, but Naldo managed to get back and clear the ball before it crossed the line. Bayern continued to press forward up the pitch and were clearly in control.
Wolfsburg came close to equalizing in the 77th minute with a great free kick, but Manuel Neuer was able to stretch out and make a fantastic save. The put into perspective how dominant Bayern has been since returning from the winter break, this was the first shot on goal Neuer has had to defend in over four hours of gameplay.
Arjen Robben made it 2-0 in stoppage time after Müller sent him one-on-one with Benaglio with a great cross. The goal was Robben's first in league play this season and could be a huge confidence booster for the Dutchman. He's struggled with injuries and a lack of playing time so far in this campaign.
Bayern now have an 18 point lead at the top of the table before Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, and Eintracht Frankfurt play this week. They have now outscored their opponents 57-7 for an astronomical +50 goal differential. Since returning from the winter break, Bayern have won all 5 games while scoring 11 goals and conceding 0. However, the best stat of all is Bayern's road record. They have played 11 matches with 10 wins and 1 draw. In those matches: 27 scored 1 conceded.

4.06/5 rDev +3.6%
Poured from a bomber into a stemmed tulip glass and shared with friends.
A: It pours a deep brownish red color (mahogany?) with a short tan head that leaves some decent lacing.
S: There is pleasant malt nose highlighting some toasted grains, caramel and bread. The predominate aroma however is a big blast of hops with lots of fruit (tropical and citrus) and some spicy/piney notes.
T: The taste follows suit, but the malt comes through a bit more and the hops transitions nicely from juicy fruit to dry, bitterness!
M: There is a good amount of carbonation and medium-high body making the brew smooth and round.
O: This is a really nice (imperial?) red ale with a tasty malt backbone with lots of diverse hop notes.

Deep dark red with pretty ruby highlights. Mocha head, great retention and lacings.
Boozy nose, almost whiskey-like. Intriguing hop presence, bittering.
Tongue coating bitterness right from the start. Toasty caramel playing a predictably important role here. Finish is nice and nutty with lingering bitterness.
Lovely body on this one. Super smooth and substantive. Beer to savour.
Good one.

400th review!
Appearance- Pours a chestnut brown with a finger of frothy beige head.
Smell- Caramalts, papaya, gauva (mosaic hops)
Taste- Caramalts and then goes right to the Mosaic hops (papaya, guava). Finishes with a pleasant bitterness.
Mouthfeel- Medium to full bodied with moderate carbonation. Has a pleasant stickiness.
Overall- A well executed collaboration brew between Central City and Flying Monkeys. The mosaic hops add a unique flavour profile that makes this brew quite enjoyable. Glad I got my hands on a bottle.

On-tap during Sessions 2013 festival.
Beer is dark red/reddish brown in colour.
Smell contains sweet caramel malt, perhaps a bit of rye. Some hoppy notes, a bit of fruit and floral scents. Toasty.
Hoppy flavours, fruity flavours that are hard to pin. Sweet caramel malt, floral. Toasted malt.
Medium bodied, moderately carbonated. Chewy and a bit oily. Really hides the ABV well.
Overall, pretty good.
