Kimi Raikkonen claimed the first victory of the season in Australia, beating Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel.
Lotus F1:
Kimi Raikkonen: "I'm happy for the team and for myself also. We've had a quick car all weekend and there were no issues with it either, so we could just focus on trying different things and getting the setup how we wanted. I had a good feeling that we would be ok with the tyres after practice and the team got the strategy perfect. I made a few places at the start and then had a good battle with Lewis [Hamilton] but after that it was quite simple; probably one of my easiest wins. You can't start the season much better than winning the first race and of course we hope we can be fighting at the front of the Championship, but there's a long way to go still and we need to keep pushing hard all the way."
Romain Grosjean: "Something felt wrong with my car, so I have to sit down with the team and analyse where the issue came from. It felt so good all weekend until the race itself, but in the end the race was long and quite difficult for me. We know that Albert Park can be a tricky circuit and the weather has certainly not helped today. It's been a great weekend for the team with Kimi's win so it's clear there's pace in the car. Let's hope I can unlock that pace too next weekend in Sepang."
Fernando Alonso: "We can claim to have started this season on the right foot, immediately in the fight with the best. Along with the results from winter testing, it is a very encouraging sign that we managed to get the most out of a weekend that was full of unknown factors, both in qualifying and the race. I think the three stop strategy was the right one: with the degradation we had, it would have been impossible to manage on one less and bringing forward the second one by a few laps meant I was able to pass Vettel and Sutil. Finishing ahead of the Red Bull tastes like a win, even if we know that despite today's race result, they are still the quickest. Now we can expect another weekend with very changeable weather and one that also puts a lot of stress on the cars from a mechanical point of view and on the drivers, from a physical one. But we can tackle it calmly on the back of this good result."
Felipe Massa: "This is definitely a very positive start to the season, especially because this is a track where I have always suffered. We have shown that our car is competitive, with a good race pace and that is down to all the hard work done during winter testing. I had an attacking start to my race, in which I was immediately fighting for the top places. Maybe if we had brought forward the second stop, as Fernando did, the podium would have been within my grasp, but I am still very happy with my result. Definitely, we are at a good level, but now we must carefully analyse every smallest detail to try and improve our car."
Red Bull:
Sebastian Vettel: "I think you're always a little disappointed when you start first and don't finish first, but overall it was a good weekend for us. We had a good day today with a pole and a podium - but in the race we were a little too aggressive with the tyres and lost the front and the rears, while others did a little better. There are always areas where you can improve, but the result we got today is fair. We didn't see Kimi on the track, he was too quick and Fernando jumped us at a vulnerable time - but we can be happy with third."
Mark Webber: "We had a few issues on the grid, getting the telemetry from the car to the pits, which wasn't ideal in terms of the guys knowing where to set everything up for the start. We lost KERS also for the first part of the race. It looked like we were quite heavy on the first set of tyres and we weren't that quick to challenge for the win as a team today. We had a slow pit stop (which was due to a front jack failure), which put me behind Jenson. We salvaged something in the end, but that was Melbourne today and it was disappointing not to get more out of it. It was hard to fight against others on a two-stop."
Lewis Hamilton: "I'm happy with our result today and it's much better than we expected for the first race of the season. The car felt really good out there; I had a strong first stint and was able to make the supersofts last longer than most of the others. We'd planned for two stops but converted to a three-stop strategy during the race. I don't quite know where we lost the ground to the cars ahead so we'll have a look at the race again now and figure it out. The important thing is that we have a car that we can really work with and the team have done a fantastic job to get us to this position. Thanks to everyone here and back at base for their support over my first race weekend with Mercedes. Now we'll look forward to Malaysia next weekend and hopefully build on this positive start with an improved performance."
Nico Rosberg: "An electric problem finished my race which was a shame as I was on a two-stop strategy and in a good position to score a decent result. There are lots of positives that we can take from the weekend however. The team have developed a solid car over the winter, I had a good qualifying pace and the car also ran well in the wet. It looks like we have started to close the gap to the front runners and we can build on that."

FREDERICK, Md. (AP) - The NAACP's Frederick County branch is seeking answers about Frederico Talley's departure last month as president of the county community college.
Talley, the first African-American president of Frederick Community College, left his job after a closed-door meeting with the board of trustees. He hasn't explained his departure, and neither has the board.
The Frederick News-Post reports ( http://bit.ly/UMFLEb) that the local NAACP president has requested a meeting with the board. The president, Guy Djoken, says there's great public interest in Talley's departure and a "lack of clarity" from the board.
He says the African-American community was very proud when Talley became president.
A college spokesman says he understands the interest in Talley's departure, and that he hopes more information will be available when discussions between the board and Talley conclude.

Breeders' Cup
Let's start the story on Tuesday. I got out of work around 10 p.m. after putting last week's issue of the paper to rest and drove downtown to one of my favorite places, PRIME Lounge for JOCKTAILS at the Breeders' Cup. Presented by the J Wagner Group, Breeders' Cup, & Grey Goose Vodka, JOCKTAILS is the only place you can go to see Jockeys bar tend where 100% of tips and donations go to the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund.
Skipping ahead a couple of days, on Friday I left work with my co-worker and Voice-Tribune Staff Writer, Ashley Anderson and headed down to Churchill Downs for our Fascinator& Fedora Friday event. We got there around 2 p.m. to set up and say hi to everyone at our booths by the Aritides Garden and in the Grey Goose Fascinator & Fedora Lounge. At 4 p.m. the contestants were lined up and ready to walk down the purple carpet for a chance to win $5,000. My job was to photograph and upload on site. I decided to make it a little more fun and also live-blogged about it along with photos, which sounded easy enough but turned into a mad rush between taking pictures, transferring to my laptop and uploading pictures live to the website all while the competition was still going on. Things ended up going super smoothly until my battery died and I had to sit on a stairwell with my computer as it recharged for 15 minutes.
After the checks were handed out I took a walk around Churchill Downs for a bit with Miss Anderson (always have a Matrix moment when saying that) before calling it quits before the last race and took the media shuttle (school bus) back to the lot and called it a night at the tracks. Later in the evening I went back to PRIME for the official after party but ended up leaving after only a drink from being so tired.
Yesterday I allowed myself to skip boot camp at Proformance and sleep in an extra hour. At around 2:30 p.m. I met up with my date for the day and we headed down for my first day at Breeders' Cup where I wasn't walking around with a camera around my neck.
Growing up I had no interest in going to watch horse races and even my first two times there I didn't enjoy it much. It wasn't until last year's Breeders' Cup, which I went to alone, that I finally fell in love with watching horses run around in an oval.
So we got to the track, wandered around aimlessly for half an hour trying to find the first floor grandstand. We lucked into sitting behind 7 New Yorkers that said "fuhgettaboutit" more times than I could count, had a pile of beer cans under their bench that would rival any trash can from a frat party and were probably the friendliest guys there (just don't ask my co-worker that I ran into, she probably won't agree). Needless to say, the 45 minutes between races flew by as we let their drunken antics entertain us for the 4 hours we were there. I only bet on the last race which I lost but still had a brilliant time regardless. It's a shame that Breeders' Cup won't be returning next year (the world championship races split time between CA, NY and KY) but I'm already looking forward to Derby. We are exactly half way there after all.
You can see my pictures from Fascinator & Fedora Friday here.

My 9-year-old daughter wets the bed sometimes. She's afraid to go to sleepover parties in case it happens there.
- Darleen
Your daughter's not alone — lots of older kids (and even some adults) wet the bed. The medical term for this is enuresis, and it often runs in families. There are many possible causes for enuresis, and it's not something your daughter can help. But it is something she can get help for — your doctor can look into why it's occurring and help solve the problem.
In the meantime, when your daughter goes to sleepovers, she should try not to drink a lot of fluids close to bedtime and should use the bathroom right before going to sleep. Luckily, most people with enuresis eventually outgrow it.

Gender Equity in STEM
Close examination of the status of women science and engineering faculty at four-year colleges and universities reveals that women not only remain disproportionately underrepresented in STEM disciplines, such as engineering and physics, but also are precipitously lost through transitions to upper professorial ranks in all STEM disciplines, generally. This issue explores current trends in higher education related to recruiting, retaining and advancing STEM women and women of color faculty.

Washington (CNN) -- U.S. officials are discussing with Middle East governments the steps needed to ensure that Syria's chemical and biological weapons sites are secured when President Bashar al-Assad leaves office, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Thursday.
"We're not talking about ground troops, but it depends on what ... happens in a transition," he told reporters.
Asked whether he had ruled out putting U.S. troops in Syria to secure such weapons, Panetta said: "You always have to keep the possibility that, if there is a peaceful transition and international organizations get involved, that they might ask for assistance in that situation. But in a hostile situation, we're not planning to ask for that."
Preventing Syria from using chemical weapons once its military has moved to use them "would be almost unachievable," said U.S. Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
"You would have to have such clarity of intelligence, you know, persistent surveillance, you'd have to actually see it before it happened, and that's unlikely, to be sure," Dempsey said.
The discussion came as the Syrian government accused the diplomat leading the international effort to forge peace of being biased in favor of the enemies of Damascus.
Lakhdar Brahimi, the U.N. and Arab League joint special envoy to Syria, has "deviated from the essence of his mission and clearly unveiled his bias to circles known for conspiring against Syria and the interests of the Syrian people who have not read the political program for solving crisis objectively," a state report said.
The state-run Syrian Arab News Agency quoted an official source at the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry.
Syria's remarks came after the BBC interviewed Brahimi, who has been trying to persuade the government and rebels to cease hostilities and to urge world powers to move toward a political settlement and end a civil war that has killed more than 60,000 people.
Brahimi told the BBC that al-Assad told him last month that "he was thinking of taking a new initiative." Brahimi was quoted as saying he told al-Assad that "it would have to be different from initiatives in the past ... which had not changed the situation one iota."
But, Brahimi said, "what has been said this time is not really different. It is perhaps even more sectarian, more one-sided."
Brahimi is scheduled to meet with Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov and U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns at the U.N. offices in Geneva, Switzerland, on Friday.
Washington backed up the diplomat. "From our perspective, Special Envoy Brahimi was simply giving voice to the same sentiments that we've heard from Syrians across this political spectrum, that 40 years of the Assad family is enough," U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters Thursday.
In a public address on Sunday, al-Assad laid out a plan to solve the crisis, which he said should start with regional countries ending their support for "terrorists." The government frequently uses that term to describe dissidents.
It includes a national dialogue and the writing of a new constitution that would be put up for a public referendum. A major caveat to the plan: Al-Assad said he will not deal with "terrorists."
Brahimi said that al-Assad told him he was considering running again next year for president. Al-Assad and his late father, Hafez, before him have run Syria for decades.
"I think what people are saying is, a family ruling for 40 years is a little bit too long," Brahimi said, according to the BBC.
Brahimi said al-Assad has discussed a transition, "but whether he means the transition that is needed is uncertain."
The Syrian source said Damascus "expected the U.N. envoy to read and analyze the political program for solving the crisis, which we provided his office in Damascus with a copy of, as the only way out of the crisis, for it is based on the comprehensive dialogue among all elements of the Syrian society to agree on a national pact to be put to referendum and charts the political, economic and judicial system of Syria on democratic pluralistic bases."
Top British diplomat: "All options are on the table"
British Foreign Secretary William Hague told the House of Commons on Thursday that the country will ramp up its help for the opposition in an effort to achieve a political transition.
But he said that "all options are on the table."
Syria minister: Enemies 'brainwashed' slain rebel son
He talked about taking steps in six areas: intensifying diplomatic support, helping the opposition Syrian National Coalition, increasing pressure on the regime to stop violence with sanctions, increasing humanitarian assistance, planning for a future Syrian government and backing the United Nations effort to "document and deter" human rights abuses.
Humanitarian crisis
The United Nations has announced a global humanitarian pledging conference, set for January 30 in Kuwait.
The conference will address the funding gaps for the Syria Regional Response Plan and the Syria Humanitarian Response Plan, which together seek $1.5 billion to help Syrian refugees as well as those in need inside the country, said the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
Most of the money would help support the more than 540,000 refugees who have fled to Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon, Turkey and Egypt. Many of those refugees are enduring frigid conditions in tents as a winter storm pounds the Middle East.
Special coverage: The Syrian refugee crisis
Meanwhile, the aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres says that people seriously wounded in bombings and other fighting can count on a dwindling number of places to get help. The group detailed the work of one of its teams that traveled to the northern city of Idlib, which has been attacked repeatedly by government forces.

Another ballistic missile launched inside Syria
NATO detected the launch of an unguided, short-range ballistic missile inside Syria on Wednesday, the alliance said Thursday. It said similar launches took place January 2 and 3.
The missiles struck northern Syria, NATO said.
"The use of such indiscriminate weapons shows utter disregard for the lives of the Syrian people," NATO said in a statement. "It is reckless and we condemn it."
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Thursday that Patriot missile batteries recently moved to Turkey's border with Syria to repel any such missiles would stay there only as long as there is a threat, the semi-official Anadolu News Agency reported.
Davutoglu was responding to questions from members at an Istanbul Chamber of Commerce meeting.
Davutoglu added that the number of Syrian refugees inside Turkey has reached 152,000 and vowed to "stand by Syrians who are being oppressed."
U.N.'s Syria death toll jumps dramatically to 60,000-plus
The crisis started in March 2011, when peaceful protesters demanding democracy and reforms were met by a fierce government crackdown, which spiraled into an armed opposition movement and a civil war.
At least 46 people -- three of them women -- were killed Thursday, the opposition Local Coordination Committees of Syria said.
The toll is lower than it has been in recent days, perhaps because cold weather and snow has descended on much of the region.
In response to the weather, the Turkish Red Crescent Society on Thursday sent nearly 625 tons of flour to Syrians who face a shortage of bread.

Hi everyone
I wished to share what has been happening for me over the last week or two. I got this infection (bacterial) in which these kinds of blisters broke out on a few places on my body. Also at one stage my right index finger had swelled up like a balloon and had to be lanced and drained. The doctor told me that I must take an antibiotic cream, combined with oral antibiotics, to overcome it all. I took the piece of paper he handed me (prescription) politely, but with years of experience in healing things naturally, I had no intention of following this advice. I just wanted to know what it was, I didn't want his recommended 'fix'.
How I healed it: by giving my own body's natural immune system extra support so that it could be 'firing on all cylinders' as it were, and overcome the infection by itself. And it worked. For me, I tried to really cut down (tried to eliminate, but in the end just managed to cut down) how much tobacco I smoked, because even the organic tobacco I smoke (and in quite small amounts) contains nicotine, which is immuno-supressive. But first and foremost, I went straight to the Plant Kingdom, source of healing for millennia (actually, if we count mammals in general, it's always been where healing can be found). My first 'meal' of the day has been an organic juice of carrots (both for some sweetness and energy) with lots of added green leaves - parsley, kale or any other mineral/vitamin rich blend (NB: freshly pressed, not bottled). So, no solid food as yet. Lunch has been a puree of apples, prunes (for sweetness and their cleansing action), with some cinnamon, clove and ginger for flavour. Once again, high in vitamins and minerals, bursting with life, but easy on the digestion - thus allowing my body to direct more energy towards fighting the infection. Only at the end of the day would I eat a basically healthy 'normal' (in my case, vegan if I am unwell) meal, which kind of 'rewarded' my discipline during the day (I tried to keep this meal moderate, not to overeat and preferably no sugar as refined sugar also lowers immune function somewhat). And a few times a day, I would have a drink of this wonderful Vitamin C powder mixed in to some juice. I've had no trouble at all in overcoming this infection, despite the dire warning of the doctor that "you must take antibiotics to cure this, it's 'systemic". How sad that the mainstream medical profession, although they can be very useful when it comes to diagnosis of things, or if you need an arm or a finger sewn back on etc, nevertheless are so amazingly ignorant when it comes to healing. Everyone was worried for me, and had this kind of inculcated fear that one must follow mainstream medical advice in these situations. Only the naturopath at my health food store and myself had no doubts at all, and knew that with the support of plants, my own immune system could overcome the infection entirely, without the need for any drug.
Antibiotics can save lives in rare instances, I agree. But in general they are either overprescribed, or just unnecessary. When we take antibiotics, they wreak havoc in our intestinal tract, by killing off not only the 'bad' bacterial infection we are trying to eradicate, but also millions and millions of the 'good' bacteria in our gut that are essential for the proper digestion and assimilation of our food. It is actually much harder to replenish the natural balance of these friendly bacteria than some think. One might have to take probiotic supplements to try and redress this imbalance for a long time after antibiotic use has ceased.
I wanted to share this healing journey with all here, because it's actually not the first time I've done this. I've been healing things naturally for many years, and I use plants because they work. Simple. Support your own immune system properly, and it can normally fight off most things. Don't underestimate the self-healing power of your own body, properly cared for and nourished.
EDIT: Upon reflection, I thought I ought to add, that if one has no knowledge of natural medicine, one would need to be under the guidance of a professional before disregarding medical advice. I'm not suggesting anyone just read what I said above and do the same, if they are inexperienced in this area. I am describing what works for me, but others might need a different approach. Also, when it comes to naturopaths, be sure to check that they are properly qualified and have years of experience (as mine does). Just as not all doctors are of the same quality, neither are all naturopaths. In my own case, I incline towards those who advocate herbal medicine (plants). But not all do so, there are a few different systems out there, and I do not recommend all of them.

Delays in construction, a hiring freeze, cuts in family and youth programs and maintenance contracts. Army officials are outlining everything that could happen if Congress can't reach a deal on a spending plan by Friday. But that's not all. As our Brian Dwyer reports, cutbacks in training could mean soldiers who are ready for battle could be overseas longer than expected.
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- It was a statement early on that basically set the tone for an hour long discussion with Army officials about sequestration.
"The fiscal crisis that we face today can be framed by three numbers: Six, six and six," U.S. Army Director for Budget Maj. Gen. Karen Dyson said.
Dyson talking about billions of dollars in cuts the Army has faced or will face just this year. There's $6 billion in base cuts. There's a $6 billion shortfall in war funding and $6 billion of cuts in operations money from sequestration.
"The reductions that we're going to talk about today define a fiscal outlook that is dire and as far as I know, unprecedented," Maj. Gen. Dyson said.
Among other things, there'd be an Army-wide hiring freeze. Family and youth program would see reductions. Also, there'd be construction delays on new buildings and fixing up old ones.
"A soldier living in a barracks that has a leaky roof, we may have to just throw a tarp over it," Brigadier General Curt Rauhut of Installation Management Command said. "Say a window was broken. We may have to provide a piece of plywood or a piece of electrical tape."
Posts could also see service and maintenance contracts canceled. Soldiers could be doing trash runs and mowing fields. Civilian workers lucky enough to keep their jobs will see a 20 percent pay cut as they work four day weeks.
"We're looking for ways to make information available to them about financial counseling, about community support that may be available in their communities and we plan to establish emergency assistance centers," Maj. Gen. Dyson added.
Did you know civilians help set up and organize soldier training events? Training will also be cutback because of that and other costs. If a soldier doesn't get proper training, he or she can't deploy. The effect would be extended deployments.
"We won't send them down range until they're ready," Major General Robert Dyess, the G8 Director of Force Development said. "That means we may have to look at an option like in the 2006-2007 time frame to keep some units longer."
The officials made it clear: Sequestration puts meeting the nation's demands and American lives at risk.
Another problem the Army has is it is not able to transfer all money. Sometimes it can't take from one program to pay for another.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Alohagirl This is beautiful!! We bought this as an addition to our koi pond. It's the perfect size, we have it peeking out behind some landscaping, so it's subtle but a nice surprise when people notice it! It also can be hung, but we love it just where it is! July 12, 2012

Jenson Button is confident he will work well with Sergio Perez, saying despite the Mexican's age he is "very sensible" and has a good understanding of the car.
This season Button will be partnered by Perez for the first time following the departure of Lewis Hamilton to Mercedes.
And although there are still questions about Perez's ability, Button, who is ten years older than the Mexican driver, believes the duo will have a strong partnership as they bid to bring the trophies home to Woking.
"I had three fantastic seasons racing alongside Lewis, but nothing stays the same in Formula 1 and people move on," the Brit said in a McLaren Q&A.
"It's always interesting to have a new team-mate - there's that inevitable getting-to-know-you period when you're settling in, but I'm really pleased to have Checo at McLaren.
"We all saw what he was capable of doing behind the wheel of a Sauber last year and I think he's a very good addition to this team.
"The most important thing is that you have a good working relationship, that you can share ideas and information freely and that you're working together with the engineers for the good of the team.
"That's never been an issue at McLaren and I think we're going to work well together - Checo may only be 22, but he's very sensible and he knows what's needed to get the most from the car, so I predict it'll be a very strong partnership."

March 21 - City National Bank now offers City National Book2Bank, a new online and mobile business banking solution that connects with accounting systems like QuickBooks to automate and simplify payment activities. This new solution allows a business owner to more easily manage invoices, generate electronic payments and streamline the payment approval process.
City National is deeply committed to helping our business clients succeed and to offering solutions that help them reach their goals, said James Daley, executive vice president and manager of Treasury Services for City National Bank. City National Book2Bank streamlines and secures the payment process, improves controls and gives our clients the simple, intuitive experience they expect.
The system is designed to solve a financial challenge for small and mid-size businesses. Many of these firms find the majority of online business payment systems either too small and geared for individual consumers, or too complex and geared for large corporations that process as many as 500 payments a month. City National Book2Bank synchronizes automatically with QuickBooks, simplifying payment processes and eliminating the need to enter information more than once.
Key benefits of City National Book2Bank include:
Its very easy very transparent, said Greg Gallup, chief operating officer for Royal Coach Tours, a charter bus transportation firm in San Jose and a City National client that uses City National Book2Bank. Our president likes it because she can make approvals from her iPad, which is convenient and saves time. You can also see the entire invoice, which is really helpful.
To create City National Book2Bank, City National partnered with MineralTree Inc., a Cambridge, Mass., firm that delivers online payment solutions to the financial services industry.
City National Bank is always looking for new ways to make banking easier, especially for small businesses, said BC Krishna, founder and CEO of MineralTree Inc. Were pleased to partner with City National in this effort.
