EAU CLAIRE -- Music fans of all kinds can enjoy the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's 14th annual OcTUBAfest 1997, which will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 1 in Phillips Recital Hall of the Fine Arts Center.
OcTUBAfest, which will feature the last of its four programs on Oct. 6, kicks off festivities on Oct. 1 when the BASSically BRASS Quartet will perform the program it presented at the International Tuba/Euphonium Conference in Italy in July. Preparations for its Italy performance were sponsored by the Undergraduate/Student Faculty Collaboration Program at UW-Eau Claire.
The group will perform works originating from Italy, as well as original works for the euphonium/tuba quartet by UW-Eau Claire faculty member Dr. Michael Cunningham and Vermont composer David Uber. Senior music major Edward Jacobs, Stillwater, Minn., and Wisconsin arranger Ronald Knoener, Howards Grove, also arranged pieces to be performed in the show.
Members of the quartet include Sarah Hanks, a sophomore from Altoona; Jacobs, a senior from Stillwater, Minn.; Nathan Vlcek, a junior from Chetek; and UW-Eau Claire faculty member Dr. Jerry Young.
The program will continue at 5 p.m. on Oct. 2 in Phillips Recital Hall of the Fine Arts Center. It will feature solo works performed by students from UW-Eau Claire's Tuba/Euphonium Studio. A variety of solos will range from spirituals to classical works to light jazz.
Young, tuba, and Dr. Barbara Young, piano, will present a joint faculty recital at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 5 in Gantner Concert Hall of the Fine Arts Center. The program will include the Sonata for Tuba and Piano by Donald White, Four Serious Songs by Johannes Brahms, Aboriginal Voices by Neal Corwell, and "A Taste of Alec Wilder," a suite of favorite movements from works by Wilder.
"This program was selected to be sort of something old, something new experience for the audience," Young said.
The final OcTUBAfest recital will begin at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 6 in Phillips Recital Hall of the Fine Arts Center. It will feature ensemble works performed by the Euphonium and Tuba Studio and members of BASSically BRASS.
"This event allows our community and students and players of low brass instruments from our area to come together and celebrate good music and our great instruments. It also gives our UW-Eau Claire students a unique opportunity to perform for a very diverse audience, which is important to their development as performing musicians," Young said.

Likud is no longer the largest party in the Knesset
Netanyahu now has the same number of seats as his main coalition partner, Yair Lapid. This leaves him at the mercy of his arch-rival, President Reuven Rivlin, if the coalition would need to be reshuffled without new elections being called. Up until mid last month, Netanyahu's coalition enjoyed a reasonably obvious hierarchy. The Likud-Beitenu list led with 31 seats; Yair Lapid's Yesh Atid followed with 19; Naftali Bennett's Jewish Home barely caught up with 12; and Tzipi Livni's Hatnua closed the list with 6. This classical enough arrangement suffered its first blow in mid- July, when Avigdor Liberman unilaterally broke…Read More... | 3 Comments

Players suing NFL knew risks football posed
BY RICK MORRISSEY email@example.com June 8, 2012 8:40PM
People watch the NFL to see Brian Urlacher knock the snot out of Adrian Peterson. | Sun-Times Media
Updated: July 11, 2012 10:18AM
When was the last time you heard a boxer complain about the dangers of boxing? Can you imagine Manny Pacquiao saying: ''This isn't funny, guys. One of these days,
somebody's going to get hurt''?
Boxing is inherently dangerous. The participants know it, and the people who enjoy watching the sport know it. When fighters punch each other in the head, there's a reasonable expectation someone is going to fall down in a heap. Actually, there's a lust for it.
In football, the idea is to score more points than the other team, but it's as much about violence as boxing is. To pretend it isn't is to live in a lost world in which your best girl is waiting for you under an oak tree after the game while an apple pie cools on a nearby windowsill. You don't watch Brian Urlacher to see him execute a perfect ankle tackle on Adrian Peterson; you watch him to see him try to force a snot bubble out of Peterson's nose with a hard hit.
That brings us to the lawsuit that more than 2,000 former players filed Thursday against the NFL, claiming the league concealed information connecting football injuries to brain damage.
If fighters sued one of the governing bodies about the dangers of boxing, they would get laughed out of a courtroom. There's a long line of former boxers who are ''punch drunk,'' which is a kind way of saying ''brain-damaged and needing to be spoon-fed.'' There was scientific research that told people the sport was dangerous. And boxers kept boxing anyway.
We're finding out now that football might be just as dangerous and . . . hold it a second: Remind me why we're surprised? Weren't all the head-on collisions a hint?
I'll cop to some mixed emotions here. I believe the former NFL players knew the risks of football while they were playing, and I believe most of them would do it all over again knowing what the latest research shows. How many current players have sworn off the game as the frightening data about brain injuries has come to light? Just about none.
But I also believe the NFL is the kind of monolithic corporation that would hide information to protect its hugely profitable product, just as I believe tobacco companies hid the hazards of smoking cigarettes from the public. Call it cynicism run amok, but there it is.
We're watching a pitched battle over the honor of football, with some former and current players stepping up to defend it. Is this the hostage sympathizing with his kidnapper?
Former NFL offensive lineman Ross Tucker recently wrote a blog entry about why he would allow his son, if he had one, to play football. He talked about all the positive values the game instilled — teamwork, determination, resiliency, etc. All are indeed a byproduct of football, but they're also a byproduct of other sports, pursuits and jobs that don't involve people in hard helmets battering each other.
And if football is so good at building character, why do we see so many college and NFL players getting into trouble with the law? If you answer ''brain trauma,'' you're adding one more reason not to play the sport.
As long as the possibility exists of heads hitting heads, there's only so much you can do to make football safer. I'd love for someone to tell me the difference in force between a gloved fist hitting a face and two helmeted football players colliding at full speed. The former is considered acceptable; the
latter isn't.
The brain moves around inside the skull like a cork would inside a bottle of water. No matter how thick the glass might be, the cork will bang against the sides if the bottle gets rattled. Football-helmet companies can make all the safety modifications they want, but they can't stop the brain from sloshing around inside the cranium. Hence, concussions. And, hence, the risk of permanent brain damage, if you believe the research.
The players suing the NFL will have to prove the league hid information. And if the league did, it would be despicable. But when players say they weren't aware about the possibility of head injuries, it's like buying a house next to a nuclear reactor and being surprised when there's an ''event.''
I still enjoy watching football. That means I knowingly take part in something that could ruin the lives of players. Maybe I should sue them for making me want to watch it.

-- The post-rut is over. Impregnated females are searching for the best nutrition amid winter's dormancy, while bucks, having lost body weight and energy, are also replenishing themselves. This is a critical time for whitetails to obtain food and continue their yearly cycle to survive facing the elements.
Photo: Deer can survive off cool-season grasses like fescue. This grass, used primarily for cattle is about 16 percent crude protein; however, it is rough for the whitetails' digestive process.
As the clouds darken and settle in, the deer herd shoves the snow away. Their keen sense of smell and inherent drive for nutrition stimulates them to dig through the snow with their noses while front hooves paw at the ground. Their objective is red oak acorns buried beneath the wintry landscape.
The matriarch doe locates an old cluster of acorns, and soon her offspring are quick to investigate. Yet the whitetail gathering becomes unfriendly as the older female swats at the younger deer intruding on her find. Obviously, the scattered red oak crop and the deer's disposition for survival brings competitiveness to the herd.
Winter is a lean time for whitetails - especially north of the Mason-Dixon Line where snow and cold temperatures can create a barren land at times. These conditions put an end to warm-season flowering plants called forbs. Therefore, woody browse consisting of tree twigs, maple sprouts, and hemlock, along with an available hard mast like acorns, are vital for the whitetails this time of year.
Due to the whitetail's digestive process, deer prefer to feed upon tender herbaceous foods, which are easier for them to digest. Once winter sets in, most of these foods go dormant, yet whitetails display an amazing ability to adapt to such extreme conditions.
Research from leading biologists has shown that although whitetails tend to avoid woody browse like tree twigs, they are certainly capable of surviving off this course forage which is more difficult to digest. Northern white cedar has been known to sustain deer along with other small trees and undergrowth.
Photo: After a snowfall, deer seek out food. When an ice pack takes place, deer will eat vegetation on the surface like grasses. They can also rake snow away with their front hooves or shovel it with their noses to locate food.
Whitetails have even adapted to the consumption of coarse fescue grasses, a cool-season grass which doesn't effect their reproductive system the way fescue toxicity does horses. In the Appalachian mountain regions, deer do occasionally digest the toxic leaves of rhododendron and laurel.
Any amount of hard mast left over from the autumn season is highly sought after by whitetails during the winter. Native mast such as red and white oak acorns, along with hickories and the like, can usually provide deer with nutrition during the winter. If the oak crops are abundant, they will even consume the acorns on into spring. So in many areas of the country, a hard mast is a major component in whitetail survival.
Photo: Acorns are vital for deer during the late fall and winter months. The better the crop, the longer deer will be able to consume these nutrients.
Research biologists have also learned that whitetails can shift their metabolism to prepare for the winter - breaking down fat to store up energy. Also, deer can consume only about 70 percent of their normal diet during the summer and autumn months. So, when the winter sets in, they're basically adjusted and prepared for food being scarce.
Despite the whitetails natural ability to adapt, it is still vital to provide supplemental food sources for deer in the winter. Of course, piles of corn aren't highly recommended due to deer concentrating too much over one area - increasing the risk of spreading disease.
This is where a few acres of various working food plots come into play. If feasible, providing deer with cool season legumes, such as clover types, is one of the best things you can do for whitetails during the winter. So when native food becomes scarce, it's imperative that the sportsman/conservationist works to provide for the whitetail's diet - giving the deer proper nutrition.
Lastly, when whitetails face winter's dormancy, the scarce conditions can bring about occasional outbreaks amongst the herd. The aggressive act of flailing erupts at times as the deer compete for food and dominance - the topic for the next installment at Buckmasters.com.

Sound Test
A sound test full of Engrish is accessible by holding A + B and pressing Start on the title screen. Strangely, only the last melody ("MEDOLEY") locks the cursor in place while it plays.
Stage Select
In the Japanese version, hold Down + Select at the title screen, then press Start. Select the area with Up / Down, then press Start to go there.
Regional Differences
|To do:
List all differences, rip graphics.
The European version has many graphical differences:
- The title screen was changed to Probotector II Return of the Evil Forces
- The two main characters were changed into robots, and their names were changed from "Mad Dog" and "Scorpion" to "RD008" and "RCO11".
- Four enemies were changed to robots in sidescrolling stages.
- Three enemies were changed to robots in top-down stages.
- The helicopter that drops off the heroes was changed to look more futuristic.
- The first helicopter boss was changed to look more futuristic.

From Director Nora Sarvetnick, PhD
Regenerative Medicine is considered by many, to be one of the most important fields in 21st-century medicine. I am honored to have the opportunity to be involved in this cutting edge scientific field that holds so much potential to help those suffering from acute and chronic conditions. The regenerative medicine program will become a new center of excellence at UNMC, allowing us to make an impact on disease and patient care while enhancing the economy of Nebraska by offering more jobs and research income for the university.
Researchers at UNMC have been pioneers in the use of peripheral stem cells and bone marrow transplantation to treat patients and I am excited to expand on this and other clinically relevant research. The field of regenerative medicine involves innovative medical therapies that enable the body to repair, replace, restore and regenerate damaged or diseased tissues and organs. It encompasses a variety of research areas including cell therapy, tissue engineering, biomaterials engineering, growth factors, and transplantation science. UNMC's numerous clinical and scientific strengths will be further advanced through the collaborations of this project.
In order to move forward and be successful, here are some of the of growth have been identified for this project:
- Bone Development and Remodeling– Re-growing limbs and appendages has been a foresight of the future but is now coming to life through advances in Regenerative Medicine.
- Cardiovascular Repair – more than 1.5 million people in the United States suffer from a heart attack each year. Tissues for heart valves and prosthetic patches for the aorta could be grown using the person's own stem cells, which would lessen the chance of transplant rejection
- Intestinal Cell Biology– Many children are affected by intestinal failure each year, and there is considerable morbidity and mortality associated with intestinal failure. Waiting for a small bowel transplant can be fatal, but with the hopes presented by Regenerative Medicine therapies, sections of new intestine could be grown and used as a temporary fix for children waiting for a transplant or to repair the damaged organ completely.
- Liver Development and Repair– chronic hepatitis C is the 10th leading cause of death among adults in the United States and one of the most common reasons for liver transplants. Even then, the virus may attack the new organ. Hepatic cells that are resistant to viruses like hepatitis could be engineered to protect the new liver.
- Pancreas Development & Diabetes– islet cell replacement or regeneration therapy may offer therapeutic benefit and perhaps a cure for people with diabetes. By understanding the processes involved in cell growth and response we hope to develop pathways to produce new, functional beta cells, which are depleted or destroyed in type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
A necessary component for the success of this project is clinical translation. Without the help of involved/collaborative clinicians here at UNMC we cannot bring our current research into the clinic. By taking a collaborative, interdisciplinary group approach we have identified critical problems in different organs or diseases and work out ways to solve them. We hope to help grow the field of Regenerative Medicine at UNMC, but also give both junior and senior faculty the chance to participate in research and therapy development. By focusing on adult and embryonic stem cell research and utilizing UNMC's new Biologics Production Facility, we hope to develop new treatments that move quickly into clinical trials.
There are several avenues of Regenerative Medicine that will require many more years of research, but as we want to focus on developing therapies that can help treat patients now. Our goal is to conduct outstanding basic research that will result in therapies and biomaterials that can be manufactured and applied in our community hospitals and facilities. We are very excited about this new adventure, and have been working hard to establish the infrastructure of this project. We look forward to making Regenerative Medicine a successful part of UNMC.

Banquet honors MRP racers
Bob Burbach
Marysville CA - November 19, 2012
Last Saturday night was a time for the Marysville Raceway Park stars to shine. The gala event was held at the Colusa Casino. Champion drivers Billy Wallace, Misty Castleberry, Brent Hall and Jeremy Hammons picked up championship trophies in their respective divisions. It was also a time for promoters Paul and Kathy Hawes to say thanks to the staff that helped make 2012 so successful.
Promoter Paul Hawes gave his annual State of the Raceway address. Hawes was justifiably proud of the strides made by MRP in the season just past. In an economy that has killed off a number of famous short tracks nationwide and caused others to struggle, MRP had its best year since the Hawes family took the reins.
Hawes said that the wingless 360 spec sprint cars will return for a full season of championship point racing at MRP in 2013. While other wingless spec series appear to be wavering, promoter Hawes will offer a season long home for those who want a consistent, 1st class approach to the class without the travel necessary to compete in other series. New tire rules in this class appear to be on the horizon to help some of the low dollar teams stay competitive with high horsepower/high dollar operations. More on this later as it develops.
The MRP Winged Sprinters will headline the 2013 season in MRPs 45th consecutive year of operation. The wildly popular Super Stocks will head the fendered divisions. The revitalized MRP Mini Stock division will return as will the fastest growing class, the MRP Hobby Stocks. Negotiations are now underway for a return of the California Sprint Car Civil War series. Multiple dates are being considered by promoter Hawes.
Promoter Hawes also announced that the relationship with the popular Contigency Connection will continue in the 2013 season.
The Limited Late Models will likely have available dates in the Taxi Cab Opens that book-end the season. BCRA Midget Lite programs will be peppered throughout the season as will the Nor Cal Dwarf Cars. As mentioned above, the Pro 4 Sprinters will also have several dates. A schedule of events will be forthcoming in the weeks to come, sometime after the annual RPM Promoters Workshop in Reno, in December.
After promoter Hawes words, Mike Dehoogh offered an emotional, photographic panorama of a season filled with enough twists and turns that it almost took your breath away.
The affair was filled with good cheer and lively discussions amongst the attendees regarding racing at MRP, and racing in general.
Taking his 2nd consecutive crown, Billy Wallace was his classic, unassuming self as he accepted his awards for a year that found him winning a title after having missed an event for personal reasons earlier in the season. Its the 1st time in the history of winged sprint car racing at MRP that a driver has captured the title without competing in every event (1991 was the 1st season of point racing at MRP for the winged cars).
MRP Super Stock Champ Brent Hall thanked a host of people as he kept the championship in that division firmly implanted in the Hall family.
1st year driver Jeremy Hammons put a period on a season that had him up front throughout. He was a gracious champion and thanked all those who helped him get to the top in the Hobby Stock division.
If there is any stock in all of the rumors surrounding Misty Castleberrys future, she said goodbye to the Mini Stock division with the acceptance of her 4th consecutive championship trophy. Castleberry who will move into wingless 360 sprint car racing next year (along with Pro 4 appearances) hasnt miss-stepped to any large degree for 4 consecutive seasons. New challenges and steep competition doesnt seem to faze her as she moves on. The veteran campaigner will saddle up in the Flyin Ford vacated at the end of the season by Joel Giusti.
Surprisingly enough, a noteworthy synopsis of the raceway came from an unexpected source late in the evening after the festivities had subsided. Car owner Mark Moore (owner of Billy Wallaces championship winning car) said to this observer in the course of conversation, that, We will be running next year. Heres a couple of things It is now the safest track to run at and thats a big deal. Its got big white walls all around. (Easy to see). Now its finally got the best surface. And it has great lighting now (referring to the improved turn ¾ complex with the bright white wall), Paul has made it better every year. Apparently, having a fully equipped on site fire truck and 1st class rescue teams at the raceway are a big factor these days for many drivers who have seen the importance of a safety first attitude. It was a tough season on sprint car drivers this year and apparently MRPs immediate response to an accident scene is becoming a growing factor in how drivers and car owners alike view the raceway. Moore, who can be a little more than constructively critical at times, turned a head or two in the group that surrounded the 2-time champ, Wallace. Moore was most complimentary in his assessment of MRPs progress.
This Saturday MRP will host the annual Racers Swap Meet at the track from 8am to Noon. Bring your stuff! Its going to be a sunny 68 degree day at the raceway. Cmon down and share a lie or two with friends as some of the best deals in racer related stuff goes on sale for a fraction of retail. Sale spaces are $35 and admission for shoppers is free. There are concessions available. See you there.
Please contact Kathy Hawes for a prompt response if you have any questions about the event at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Note: Please make this observer aware of any names that are misspelled or incorrect. The text is based on information we have at the time of its release.

The color is really a sea foam light green vs light blue. It is very large and flowy and shows some side unmentionables (can't use certain words apparently) - which I don't mind but when it is mumu style it isn't what I was looking for. would have worn this when I was pregnant

Now im not trying to beat a dead horse and i know we are all surfers and bbers here but i was just making preliminary plans for my trip and i just cannot understand the ration behind not charging fat people for an extra seat and charging me 200 bucks roundtrip to take a 20lbs boardbag. Coming back from PR i got stuck inbetween a family of fat ass black people who all boarded the plane with McDonalds bags!! I would guess average weight of at least 250-275. I just dont understand the logic behind it!!
And secondly, what do you guys think it would take to bring enough attention to this issue that someone would even care to adress it, let alone come to a resolution?
Furthermore, I just came back from Hawaii and really got into it with the airline manager because of what they were charging me, yet when i looked online SKIIS and SNOWBOARDS were free to Hawaii for the few times a year the 1 mountain gets snow!! UNBELIEVEABLE!!

K-Palette Real Lasting 24-Hour Eyeliner offers liquid liner with the convenience of a pencil liner (or pen, rather). Ranked as one of the best selling eyeliners in Japan and Singapore, K-Palette has sold over 1 billion pieces of this baby in three years -- that's a lot of eyeliners!
Needless to say, I was keen to have this and got Bee to pick one up for me during her trip to Singapore a couple of months ago.
Read on for the review and swatch...
See? Not completely black. The eyeliner holds up to its claim for being super long lasting and smudge-resistant.
I don't usually read instructions on the packaging but I'd advise you to read this one. This eyeliner is not water-resistant so you can remove it with warm water. In other words, I wouldn't recommend swimming or getting wet with this liner on. The formula is meant to repel oil and that's a bummer for me because I use a cleansing oil to remove my makeup. I did ignore the instruction and I ended up having eyeliner stained on my lids. So if I do use this eyeliner, I'd have to remove it first with a cotton bud saturated in warm water or cleansing milk before I proceed to removing the rest of my makeup with cleansing oil.
As advised, I store this eyeliner upside down in my brush holder so that the ink doesn't sit at the bottom of the pen.
Overall, this is a decent eyeliner and probably one of the best liquid eyeliner pens I've ever used so I can see why many people are so impressed with this. Unfortunately, I simply don't reach for it very often as I prefer my lines to be controlled, opaque and straight, which I obtain from gel liners. Also, the fact that I can't remove it one shot with the rest of my makeup annoys me.
The K-Palette Real Lasting 24-Hour Eyeliner is not available for sale in Malaysia. It's easily found in selected Watsons in Singapore. I can't remember the exact the price but I remember paying less that SGD$20 for it. Anyone care to clarify?

As the nation holds memorials to remember the seven fallen astronauts, a local man is offering his tribute in a very special way. Flags across the country fly at half-staff to honor the lives of Columbia's seven fallen astronauts.
A Beloit man has turned his store window into a makeshift memorial so that people remember the lives and dreams that were lost. In the window of The Overflowing Cup on West State Street Dave Anderson doesn't want people to forget.
He says he personally wanted to pay his respects as a veteran and give tribute to the sacrifices theses men and women gave. Anderson's memorial is more than a shrine; he says it's also a reminder that the space program must live on.
Anderson says to quit now would be a tragedy to those who gave their lives so others could move forward.

Based on the Harold Gray comic strip "Little Orphan Annie," this heartwarming musical takes place in the beginning years of the 1930s which were some of the hardest years in American history due to many economic events -- the stock market crash; the dust bowl; the great depression. Americans needed hope and a reason to believe that things were going to get better, and a young red headed orphan name Annie showed that optimism could be contagious. With the help of the other girls in the Orphanage, Annie escapes to the wondrous and magical world of NYC. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan's evil plans and befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. She finds a new home and family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

Conservative media figures attacked Americans for reelecting President Obama, with most claiming that those who voted for Obama did so because they see him as Santa Claus and just "want free stuff." Others, like Fox News' Greg Gutfeld, likened Obama voters to "the wife who ignores a horrible husband because she can't imagine an alternative."
Right-Wing Media: Americans Voted For Obama Because They "Want Free Stuff"
1. Rush Limbaugh: Obama Won Because "People Are Not Going To Vote Against Santa Claus, Especially If The Alternative Is Being Your Own Santa Claus." On his radio show, Rush Limbaugh posited that the election was not a rejection of conservatism but rather an embrace of "Santa Claus":
LIMBAUGH: Let me tell you, small things beat big things yesterday. Conservatism, in my humble opinion, did not lose last night. It's just very difficult to beat Santa Claus. It is practically impossible to beat Santa Claus. People are not going to vote against Santa Claus especially if the alternative is being your own Santa Claus. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Rush Limbaugh Show, 11/7/12]
2. Bill O'Reilly: "The Voters, Many Of Them Feel Like The Economic System Is Stacked Against Them, And They Want Stuff." Fox News' Bill O'Reilly explained Obama's likely election-night victory by deriding half of the voting public as people "who want stuff" and "things." He added: "And who is going to give them things? President Obama." He went on to say:
O'REILLY: The voters, many of them feel that the economic system is stacked against them, and they want stuff. You're going to see a tremendous Hispanic vote for President Obama. Overwhelming black vote for President Obama. And women will probably break President Obama's way. People feel that they are entitled to things, and which candidate, between the two, is going to give them things? [Fox News, America's Election Headquarters, 11/6/12]
3. Greg Gutfeld Compared Obama Voters To "The Wife Who Ignores A Horrible Husband Because She Can't Imagine An Alternative." On Fox News' The Five, co-host Greg Gutfeld said that "Obama voters ignore the metrics of success" in that "they don't care that income is getting lower" and "they don't care about" unemployment and debt. He added: "It's like the wife who ignores a horrible husband because she can't imagine an alternative." [Fox News, The Five, 11/7/12]
4. Eric Bolling Accused Half Of Americans Of Voting For "Class Warfare." On Fox News' The Five, co-host Eric Bolling said he couldn't believe 50 percent of Americans would want four more years of "the class warfare guy":
BOLLING: We can't blame President Obama. We knew who he was. For four years, we've known exactly what he is. He's the class warfare guy, he's divisive, he's the maker versus taker guy. I have to sit back and go, Americans -- 50 percent of people who voted voted for more of that? Four more years of that? It's our own fault, people. [Fox News, The Five, 11/7/12]
5. Monica Crowley: Election Results Show More Americans "Now Are Dependent On Government Than Not." Saying that the election results "point to something much bigger" than the quality of the campaigns, Fox News contributor Monica Crowley claimed that President Obama and the left have "accelerated this process of changing the very nature and character of the country where more people now are dependent on government than not. He tried to accelerate us to that tipping point. The results last night, I think, show that perhaps he's gotten us there." [Fox News, America Live, 11/7/12]

About 1 in 90 spontaneous human births (1.1%) results from a twin pregnancy.
There are three different kind of twins:
- Dizygotic Twins
- Monzozygotic Twins
- Polar Body Twins
Dizygotic twins are twins which result from the fertilization of 2 different eggs with 2 different sperms. Dizygotic twin pairs can be girl/girl, boy/boy, or girls/boy. Other words for dizygotic twins are also fraternal or non-identical twins. The rate of spontaneous dizygotic twins varies by population. It is highest among African-Americans and lowest for Asians.
Dizygotic twin pregnancies are more likely when the following factors are present in the woman:
- You are on fertility drugs
- You are over 40
- You are of West African descent (especially Yoruba or Hausa)
- You are greater than average height and weight
- You had several previous pregnancies.
- You are yourself a dizygotic twin
- You have a family history of dizygotic twinning.
Infertility treatments increase the rate of dizygotic twins, with about 35% of pregnancies from IVF being twin pregnancies. All dizygotic twins have separate placentas.
All dizygotic twins are dichorionic, which means they have two separate out sacs and two placenta.
Monozygotic (MZ) twins result from the fertilization of one egg and one sperm. The fertilized embryo then splits within days after fertilization resulting in two individuals which usually share the same chromosomes. Monozygtic twins are also known as identical or maternal twins.
The rate of monozygotic twins remains at about 1 in 333 across the globe, further suggesting that pregnancies resulting in identical twins occur randomly, though with IVF the rate of monozygotic twins is also increased.
One third of MZ twins have a separate placenta (dichorionic or didi), and 2/3 of monozygotic twins share a placenta (monochorionic-diamniotic or monodi). About 1% of twins will share their inner sac (monochorionic, monoamniotic or monomono).
When identifying twins, it is important to find out whether they are dichorionic or monochorionic. Twins that share a placenta (monochorionic) are at increased risk of certain complications such as twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.Monochorionic twins must be watched in pregnancy much closer thatn dichorionic twins.
Polar body twins happen very rarely, and they results from one egg fertilized by two different sperm. Polar body twinning would result in "half-identical" twins.
Whether twins are MZ or DZ can be determined by analysis of DNA samples from blood or other tissues. All unlike sex twins are DZ. All monochorionic twins are MZ. Thus DNA analysis is required for the approximate 50% of twins who are like sex with dichorionic placentas.

Want to buy my Dad a laptop, but cash is a bit strapped at the moment so could do with a couple of months to get the money together.

The same day I heard about this I heard Adam Carolla say earlier that "Katy Perry always looks like she's thinking of something stupid". Well, Katy Perry is hott, aint she? Tadaaa – SCIENCE.
It's a well known fact what a fan I am of the publication, Evolution and Human Behavior — actually, that's too plausible. I was starting that as a joke but on second thought, peopledontknowstuff and I have a lot of random and esoteric interests so the gag isn't as obvious. I withdraw that as well as my follow up about what a giant follower I am of Texas–Austin graduate student Cari Goetz and her colleagues, whom have just released a tease on an exploration in sexual exploitability in humans.
Slate boils it down to a more easy to digest premise and outcome: Men are more attracted to women who appear stupid.
Ask a straight man, "How do you like your women?" and it's unlikely he'll answer, "Dumb and sleepy." But according to new findings, these characteristics—and any other traits suggesting that the lady isn't particularly alert—are precisely what the human male has evolved to look for in a one-night-stand.
For ancestral women, casual intercourse with an emotionally unattached man who had no clear intention of sticking around to raise any resulting offspring constituted a massive genetic gamble. By contrast, for a man with somewhere around 85 million sperm cells churned out every day—per testicle—the frivolous expenditure of gametes was far less detrimental to his genetic interests. Goetz and her team began with the assumption that—because our brains evolved long before prophylactics entered the picture—female cognition is still sensitive to the pregnancy-related consequences of uncommitted sex and women remain more reluctant than men to engage in it. They set out to test the idea that any indication that a woman's guard is lowered—that she's "sexually exploitable"—is a turn-on for your average man. "[T]he assessment of a woman's immediate vulnerability," surmise the authors, "may be central to the activation of psychological mechanisms related to sexual exploitation."
This is an inflammatory hypothesis, of course, and the language employed in the field doesn't help matters. It's worth noting that in the evolutionary psychology sense, the word exploitablesimply means that a woman is willing or can be more easily pressured into having sex—which takes her own desires, rather disturbingly, out of the equation. Even if she's the aggressor, a prostitute, or a certifiable nymphomaniac, having casual sex with her would still constitute "exploiting" her (or at least her body), according to this model.

Libya: Intervention and the Hostage Problem
In our most recent post, we argued that the Europeans have the capability to intervene (aircraft carriers, support vessels, aircraft, etc.). Why, we asked, does it have to be an American aircraft carrier that gets the job done? We neglected to mention the fact that an actual aircraft carrier may not even be necessary, as there are three large floating aircraft carriers in the Mediterranean:
- Malta: Pilots defecting from Libya landed their jets here; also serves as a rallying point for fleeing Americans.
- Sicily: ENI's Greenstream natural gas pipeline runs from Libya to Sicily.
- Crete: Already being used as a rendezvous point for evacuation ships; in terms of aircraft, it could cover part of eastern Libya, but much of that territory already belongs to the rebels anyway.
The first two could definitely be used as bases for land-based aircraft.
In terms of the Westerners still stuck in Libya, reportedly some 5,000-6,000 Europeans remain. Without a significant ground component in addition to the aerial units enforcing the putative no-fly zone, the intervening power would be setting up the mother of all hostage situations. Assorted tribes, Libyan military, and mercenaries could all respond by seizing these hapless foreigners as bargaining chips, human shields, and so forth.
As always, if you do anything, do it right.

Wolfpack are a three piece punk rock band hailing from the mean streets of Melbourne with members coming from bands such as Sin City, Halfmast and Screaming Queens. If you've seen a show you'll know it's a dynamite live show driven by belting vocals, intense riffs & a turbo charged rhythm section. They've supported bands such as The Business (UK), The Casualties (US), Guttermouth (US), British India, The Go Set, The New Christs, Cockfight ShootOut, Digger & The Pussycats, Wild Turkey. Tom took the time to have a chat with me yesterday and this is what he had to say.
So what's happening in your world right now?
Wolfpack have just undergone a major line-up change with our old singer moving from Melbourne back to Adelaide. I used to do a lot of back-ups and wrote half of the lyrics so we just kept those songs and I made the natural move to lead singer, it is bloody hard work playing drums and singing though. The revised line-up actually had our first show last week and it went down even better than before so good times indeed.
How long have you guys been playing and how did you meet?
Wolfpack has only been going since October last year but we've already played about 30 shows and done a national tour.
Josh, our guitarist and I have played together in 3 other bands before (Sin City, Screaming Queens & Lowdown) and always enjoy working with each other so it was logical as soon as he got back from holidays in the states (and with Sin City still on long service leave!) that we fire up again. Kane the bass player we know from our home-town Perth, luckily he is living in Melbourne now (he also plays in a cool hardcore band called Halfmast, check 'em out) and anyone who has seen him play will know exactly why he was the only choice for us, the guy is a fucking demon.
Why the name, what does it mean?
Wolfpack sums it up nicely: we aren't in it to make money or conquer the world but we are really damn serious about being the best band we can be and also with being really strong friends prior to the band the concept of a pack of wolves where it is about everyone's happiness, strength, stability and enjoyment fits well. Plus we are all horror movie fiends so it sets the tone for our dark lyrical themes.
Where do see the band in 5 years time?
Still digging the absolute shit out of ripping it up live and doing whatever it takes to make sure people who come out and see us get their $10 worth. We are all punters first and foremost, that is why we started playing instruments after being influenced as kids growing up going to punk gigs so for us it is all about playing live and we really value everyone taking the time to come to see us. So fuck yeah we will bleed, sweat and play so hard that we spew or pass out, fucking whatever, to ensure the crew are entertained and we can keep doing this fucking fun, touring and rocking thing.
What shows are coming up that you're playing at?
Saturday 10th March at The Retreat, Brunswick (VIC). Free.
Saturday 17th March at The Pot, Belconnen (ACT). Entry by donation.
Sunday 18th March at The Community Cup, Henson Park in Marrickville (NSW). All-ages, entry by donation (to Reclink) with Front End Loader & Frenzal Rhomb.
Friday 23rd March at The Den, Inglewood (WA).
Saturday 24th March at Prince Of Wales, Bunbury (WA). Free.
Sunday 25th March at Newport, Fremantle (WA). Free.
Friday 13th April at Pony Bar (late show), Melbourne (VIC). Free.
Saturday 28th April at The Corner, Richmond (VIC) supporting UK punk legends The Exploited.
Any albums, ep's released or coming out?
We'll be recording some stuff in April that will come out as a benefit release in June for The Lost Dogs Home in North Melbourne who do awesome work over here for our four legged friends.
Who is you're fav band you've shared the stage with, so far?
It is out of The Casualties and The Business but please don't make me pick outta those two, we are good mates with both bands and anyone who has seen how hard they rock will know it is not only too tough a call to make but also one we'd be doing at quite possibly our own peril. Ha, Ha!
Got just one good story you care to share?
I got a bit carried away at the end of this gig one night and was doing the 'smashing head into cymbal' trick but clearly the adrenalin was pumping a lot more than I realized and I had actually hit a wing nut on top of one of my stands and busted my head open BIG time. Anyways I sometimes do the old 'mangina' trick, especially if the crew are having a particularly loose one which everyone was up until I made my way to the front of the stage, tucked my member between my legs and then wondered why everyone was so disgusted? Because you are covered, head to toe, "Carrie" style in blood you idiot. Fucking gross and MY Bad.
What about an embarrassing one?
Pretty sure the ending to the above story where I pass out back-stage from blood loss and get taken to the hospital to get 13 staples in my head after epically failing at being a rock star counts as embarrassing yeah?
What do you guys mainly sing about?
We're wolves obviously but also some social commentary, I studied politics at Murdoch and am still disgusted everyday by the attitudes prevalent not just in society but also our local community and even punk scene. So yeah things that piss me off will get sung about, I still don't get why females get treated like shit at punk shows. I thought punks had a belief system but apparently this no longer applies when they are in their own surroundings and wanna score. I also didn't realize racism was acceptable if you put it in the form of a joke. My bad… I don't think so. Stop being fucking bigots and if you think I am being too staunch with what I say then please come up and discuss it with me over a cider at a show. Always up for a good chat, debate, argument or fight and don't mind which it ends up being as long as people think their own thoughts and stand up for what they believe in. For me I believe the day we stop caring about our surroundings and trying to make this world a better place to live in is the day punk fails… Your round eh bro?
Most people don't like to be fit into a genre, but if you had to place your music in a CD shop, where would you put it?
Right between Rihanna and Christina Aguilera. Anyone who picks up their CD and not one by an independent Australian act is clearly the fucking enemy… Attack Attack!

"There isn't much more to say - I'm ready to go. Boxing is about style and I think with his [Angulo's] style and my style it will be a war. We are going to give you a war. I always say talk is cheap so we'll see what happens on Saturday night.
"It is a big responsibility to headline on pay-per-view. It shows the end result of everything I've done in the gym.
"I'm going to give it my best. I'm going to get the victory.
"Angulo is a very dangerous opponent. He doesn't mind getting hit as long as he can hit back. It's a fight that can change in one punch on either side.
"I'm calm and tranquil because that's part of the preparation for this fight.
"I know I'm strong, I know what I have to do. I will follow my game plan and come out with the win.
"Angulo keeps coming forward, breaks you down and keeps coming. It'll be challenging to get a knockout against a guy like Angulo, but you can't blame me for trying."
