Rockies routed 10-0 by Diamondbacks
PHOENIX Jeremy Guthrie was worried about his place in the big leagues after his worst road start of the season. His manager isn't ready to take the ball from him yet.
Guthrie (3-4) allowed seven runs to surpass his previous four road starts combined and the Colorado Rockies followed a shutout victory with a 10-0 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks Tuesday night.
"If they kick me off the team today it wouldn't surprise me," Guthrie said. "I haven't earned a spot here to pitch very well and I respect the game. I understand how it works. I have seen guys come up and do very well and earn it and I have seen guys who have done very well and lose it. If I don't make another start here it wouldn't surprise me. I will come to work every day as long as I have a jersey and do the best I can."
Guthrie had felt at home on the road this season, allowing six earned runs in 24 1-3 innings in four starts away from Coors Field while going 1-2 with an 8.87 ERA in the thin air.
He wasn't so good in his first start in the desert, allowing seven runs on 11 hits in 3 1-3 innings, but Rockies manager Jim Tracy wasn't ready to give up on him just yet.
"We are going to keep pitching him," Tracy said. "He is a guy we need, simply put. We have kids in this rotation and the kids the two previous days stepped up and gave us tremendous performances. He has to realize that he has to step up. We need him in the fold."
Arizona ace Ian Kennedy (5-5) has put together a couple of solid performances after making a tweak to his mechanics.
Working to keep on top of the ball, the right-hander matched career high with 12 strikeouts in six innings for his second straight strong start. He wouldn't say what the adjustment was, but it sure seems to be working.
"It's a secret," Kennedy said after joining Randy Johnson as the only Arizona pitchers to strike out at least 12 in six innings or less. "It was just a minor mechanical thing. Sometimes when I'm out there, I can feel myself get under pitches and it just tells myself that little key."
Finally getting some run support certainly didn't hurt.
A night after being shut out by the Rockies, the Diamondbacks hit early and didn't really stop, roughing up Guthrie on their way to a season-high 17 hits.
Jason Kubel hit a two-run homer and drove in five runs. Gerardo Parra had a solo homer among his four hits. Aaron Hill hit a two-run shot and finished a double short of the cycle.
By the time they were done, the Diamondbacks had their most lopsided shutout victory since beating San Francisco 11-0 on Aug. 27, 2009.
"It was an all-around great effort," Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said.
Kennedy seemed to have good command of everything, despite struggling in the bullpen before the game.

Offbeat Accessories for a Harvey Faircloth Kind of Girl
Before launching vintage-inspired clothing line Harvey Faircloth, Katie Hatch, Mara Papa, and Abby Clawson Low each worked in a different arm of the fashion industry. The trio, whose NYC shopping haunts were featured in our February issue, are blogging this week on Luckymag.com.
This week we'll be sharing the fashion, home, and lifestyle pieces we wish we had received for Christmas. There's not too much really--just a couple of things that would come in handy to add a little spark to the rest of the winter.
When choosing these could-have-been stocking stuffers (and everything this week, actually), we looked for the things we love best: the utilitarian, the almost forgotten, the clever, the off-beat, the strange and unexpected--the off-kilter classics. We hope you love them, too.
"A minimalist leather wallet in bright tomato red is equal parts utilitarian and luxe."-Katie Hatch (Alice Park wallet, $50, OK Store)
"A Klein tool bag is the daytime equivalent to an eveningclutch. Throw it into a larger tote, or use it solo. And look at that price!"-Mara Papa (Klein zipper bags, $12.75, mytoolstore.com)
"I was really hoping someone would remember how much I likeRonni Kappos jewelry. It's a graphically chic version of what you'd make atcamp, and it pairs perfectly with our serape dress."-Mara Papa (Ronni Kappos necklace, $195, Beklina)

The Jabra GN2000 CIPC headset enhances the user experience with the Cisco IP Communicator softphone by providing intuitive inline call control and crystal clear audio, even in noisy work environments.
The headset is certified for CIPC, meaning you can simply plug-and-play with your unified communications voice client. Just plug it into the USB port and you're ready to go. CIPC will automatically recognize the device, and you can answer/end calls and adjust volume levels via integrated inline control buttons on the cord.
The Jabra GN2000 CIPC headset series raises expectations of a professional grade headset in terms of durability, comfort and quality.
While most "wideband" headsets cut-off around 4,000 Hz, the Jabra GN2000 CIPC provides a full frequency response up to 6,800 Hz. This reduces misunderstandings and communication difficulties.
The headset features a noise-canceling microphone to combat background noise and PeakStop technology that protects the users hearing by cutting off sudden loud noises.

Video: What Happens When a Whale Falls?
The deep sea floor can be a hard place to find a good meal, so when a 40-ton whale carcass drops from the heavens, it's a veritable harvest festival for deep sea scavengers.
The fascinating, if morbid, process is illustrated by this excellent animated video by Sweet Fern Productions, a visual complement to a recent episode of RadioLab:
Whale Fall (after life of a whale) from Sharon Shattuck on Vimeo.
So what happens when a whale falls to the seafloor?
Large animals, like sleeper sharks and hagfish are the first to the scene, and tear into the fatty tissue with delight. Depending on the size of the whale, this "mobile scavenger" phase can last up to two years.
The next to arrive are the mussels, clams, and other opportunists who ferociously devour the leftover tissue and clean the carcass down to the bone. The sulfophillic stage begins once the skeleton is all that's left and the bigger creatures have moved on. Special bacteria that can break down whale bones settle in for a 50 year banquet.
Whale falls create opportunities for critters big and small, and can act as stepping stones between ecosystems in the deep sea. An oasis for animals, mollusks, and bacteria, these whale fall sites support life in the deep sea for up to 75 years.
Pretty neat, huh?
Ariel Kagan is an intern for Oceana's Seafood Fraud campaign.

Safeway Inc (NYSE:SWY)
The Company is a food and drug retailers in North America.
I can't believe I didn't think to call this when the stock was at $35. My husband works at Safeway, and the inefficiencies he witnesses are absurd. This might be long, but at least you'll know how your Safeway works!
There is almost no incentive to work hard or be efficient (and I've heard it's nearly impossible to get fired). Instead, all the emphasis is placed on the secret shopper program. If you shop at Safeway and get annoyed at constantly being asked if you need help finding anything, you should know that it's because you might be a secret shopper, and store management thinks the world will end if an employee "misses" a shop.
As a consumer, I don't like to shop at Safeway. The prices are much higher than other area grocery stores, and I don't think the secret shopper program actually improves customer service. They don't have a good selection of merchandise, either. The store by our house just started selling boogie boards. We live in the Pacific Northwest; it's cold and rainy here, not to mention a two-hour drive to the ocean. But does the store sell umbrellas? No. They sell boogie boards.
Safeway pharmacies lose business to drugstores with low-priced generics. About the lowest price you could expect to pay for meds at Safeway would be $19.99. If you can get the same thing for $4, you're saving almost $200 a year by going to Target, Walgreens, Wal-Mart or Costco.
If you wanted to determine how much bread to bake in a store, you would probably keep a spreadsheet of daily sales. You know what Safeway does? They look at the week's bread sales from five weeks ago. So if bread was on sale five weeks ago, or if there was a holiday and people were buying stuff for dinner, you're going to bake too much this week, and then throw it away -- because they don't have clearance racks for day-old goods.
I know this is all anecdotal information, but I think the waste and misdirection that employees and customers experience is indicative of the failure of management to focus on running the business well -- which includes finding, retaining and training good candidates for store and district management. With that intro, here is my favorite item: A display of Axe body spray near the pharmacy was aggravating an employee's asthma. After she complained to management several times, they came back with a solution: she could move to another store!
The thing that made me think "underperform" was that my husband had to call HR, and the phone line was *busy* for 35 minutes. What is this, Ma and Pa's Corner Market? Did Ma go to lunch and leave the phone off the hook? Seriously!
I worked for Safeway for 10yrs at a pak n save and regular safeway stores all over the bay area and in Hawaii. I have slowly watched the Company go from the safeway of old involved in the community and the lives of its employees to this cheap watered down version of what the company and its stores used to be.
as a former safeway sd i share your pain...when safeway was run out of texas over 20 years ago i stayed and started over with a texas based TOM THUMB STORES that believed in selling their way into profit and total control of store operations in the sd hands...safeway came back a few years ago and bought tom thumb along with a struggling randalls stores..i stayed on the one year i promised to before leaving the exact same poor operation that got ran out of texas 20 years ago...safeway stores are operated by "yes" management at store level.....a bunch of mindless followers...directed in ever area from merchandising to customer service...management of operators by the numbers...like the old paint by the numbers with big brother watching and guilding your every stroke....no leadership skills required....your husband needs to get out while he still may have a mind of his own....try whole foods or harry teeter if they're in your area...or perhaps his own thing.....freedoms great but only if you exerctse it....regretfully
Having worked at Genuardi's (owned by Safeway) for 12 years I have seen first hand the destruction Safeway leaves in it's wake after buying a chain of supermarkets. I now work for Whole Foods and I cannot believe I stayed at Genuardi's as long as I did. I am now a happy, satisfied team member of a top 15 "best places to work" award winning, eco-friendly company. Safeway is a destructive, morally corrupt company will disgruntled employees and puppet management.
As a family member maybe you are biased against this company. Walmart treats their employees a lot worse than Safeway. Non union employers treat their employees worse also. Grocery is a tough business and Safeway competes agressively in all its markets. Without the secret shopper program the employees can treat customers badly and get away without any concern. This just makes the employee accountable. Get over it. This is a tough company in a tough market and Safeway will continue to perform competitivety.
I tried shopping at Genuardi's (SWY in PA). The people are terrible. They are morons and unhelpful, and even rude. I'm going to Whole Foods where people are friendly and food is healthy.
Good info slick and I concur based on my shopping experience.
I am not going to give too much detail as I do still respect my immediate supervisors. I worked at the corporate level for Safeway for a few years and found they are very resistant to change in any manner. It is like walking into a big corporation from the 60s to 80s where you are promoted based on time of service and no one wants to hear any new ideas. Just wait your turn, do your job and do not do anything to bring attention to yourself.
This company will never do anything to innovate and even when they try they do it poorly. Their projects use flawed business metrics such as ROI to determine whether or not to do something. ROI is fine as a piece of the puzzle but should not be the sole determining factor of a projects necessity. ROI also assumes all the factors in the return equation are known which more often than not is not the case.
Anyway all things considered I have to agree that SWY is not going to be making any big moves upward in its stock price so if the market is rising in general thumbs down.
hi i retired from safeway after 37 full time years and saw a lot of changes. they were great until walmart started under cutting there prices and taking there bussiness.i would totally agree with jmack48. the thing that i havent heard mentioned is that steve burd owns a lot of stock that he is willing to protect and with the recent sale of the canadian operation they can pay down the debt and have 3.7 to buy back there own stock. a big advantage. steve burd is now retired and working behind the scenes and i think he has something in mind. also the money from black hawk ipo which they still have total control of riverjunction

I recently took some time to do some birding in one of my favorite habitats: short-grass open country. Some species seek out this type of habitat, and since it is in generally short supply for public access in our area, those species can be hard to find around here. I waited until a very cold morning. I love walking through open fields with frost on the ground, bundled up against the cold. It's invigorating, and depending on the birds, can be very exciting.
I chose to drive out to the parking fields at Charlotte Motor Speedway. There are spots where there are no trees for hundreds of yards, with grass just a few inches high and numerous scattered bare areas. To the casual observer, it probably looks totally devoid of birds. A walk through, however, proves otherwise.
Within a few seconds, I heard the distinctive high-pitched calls of horned larks. They love this type of habitat and are dependable here. I scanned the grounds and found a flock of about two dozen birds hunkered down in the cold wind. These flocks of horned larks occasionally have some real rarities mixed in with them, such as Lapland longspurs. I flushed the flock several times, hoping to hear the characteristic rattle of a longspur, but there were none present.
A bit farther along, I started flushing small sparrows from the grass. Savannah sparrows like this habitat too.
A bit farther, an Eastern meadowlark started flying off the ground in front of me. When they are sitting low, meadowlarks are perfectly camouflaged. When they stand up, the bright yellow underparts become evident. In flight, the white outer tail feathers are conspicuous, too. I noticed some larger birds that opted to run away instead of flying. A small flock of killdeer was moving away from me, giving shrill warning calls to each other. Eventually they took flight with a chorus of loud, incessant complaints.
Though I saw no rarities, I was still glad to see these common, open-country birds that are not generally found in more conventional habitats. I can't wait for the next cold snap.

For anyone interested:
I don't know if anyone has read his tweets today (maybe he's been hacked), but he's been hinting at retiring, saying his last match was today.
For anyone interested:
One year ago, this guy was standing toe to toe with Cena, as the last two men vying for a shot at the title at Wrestlemania.
And thank the lord he didn't win.
What a whack job.
One of those tweets say he is talking to "chubbs" from Happy Gilmore, well... considering the dude is dead... I don't see how.

Vince created a monster. Just not the monster he wanted. Instead of a beast that people feared in the ring, he created an egomaniac.
He's on Kurt Angle levels right now.
How quickly they fall. He's certaintly been frustrated at points. I remember one Raw as he came out for a match, he waited till a camera was on him in the ring and then screamed "Pull the damn trigger on me"

Ryback is the walking, talking personification of the phrase "Million dollar body, ten cent brain."
The sky was the limit for this guy. Vince dreams of wrestlers who look like him. All he had to do was not be a complete blathering idiot backstage and he would have been a superstar.
It's quite a shame to be honest. Ryback was the hottest man in the company just over a year ago. Then he was ruined. I genuinely feel sorry for him.
Ryback is terrible, and apparently has caused nothing but issues backstage. I hope he is gone.

Sounds pretty legit but I'll wait until WWE releases statement.
Trollback is trolling like guys like the trolliest bunch of trollies I've ever seen.

If this is true, then it's a shame. His "Feed Me More" thing caught on so good, but they destroyed him by pushing him into the championship feud that they knew he was going to lose.... over and over and over and over again.
Its apart of his character guys...he's a bully/troll who is suppose to be delusional.
Ryback rules.

Its hilarious how many people fell for his trolling Tweets.
Being a dumbass is a perfect character for him, I agree.

I enjoy Ryback.

Shout out to Bender for the Sig.
Ryback is a master troll he should just do this instead of wrestling
( ?_?) - 97% of PW suddenly think Michael Cole is awesome. If you're part of the 3% that still thinks he is an annoying tool, copy & paste this into your sig.
Currently Playing: Suikoden 1, Max Payne 1, Beyond Good and Evil, MGS Peace Walker
There's a chance (slight) that he really was hacked.
If not then just fire him. Let him go to TNA, become Ryan Goldberg and get a push there. Might actually make me want to watch the show.

Home Free Organization is a non-profit initiative to eradicate homelessness in urban environments through the provision of free wireless internet, social networking and resource allotment. We take donated bread trucks which have come off route and add donated computers and hardware to create mobile wireless access hubs for homeless individuals to utilize for finding family, jobs, resources and ways off the street. The goal is simple: Provide a resource for the homeless which will allow them to find ways off the street. Of course there are many who prefer the streets to a 9-5 and home life, but for those who are stuck and cannot find there way, Home Free will provide the tools to try. We give every visitor an email address to be used for networking and contact. We provide a focused set of search engines geared toward geneology, people searching, available jobs and other resources available to homeless individuals. Finding the Home Free Truck will be easy, as we will be providing the streets with an 800 number that can be called from any public phone to give the exact location of the truck. It could be at Union Square in Manhattan or Downtown Brooklyn.

Gunvor Group Ltd., a trading company partly owned by billionaire Gennady Timchenko, hired Andrey Churin as head of its coal business in Russia.
Churin, former coal managing director at Oleg Deripaska's En+Group, was made chief executive officer of the Kolmar coal business from July 3, Gunvor said in an e-mailed statement today. Gunvor and Timchenko's Volga Resources are now closing a deal to jointly buy 60 percent in Kolmar, Anton Kurevin, a Moscow-based spokesman for Timchenko, said by e-mail.
The two companies last year funded the purchase of 51 percent of Kolmar from billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov by businessman Anatoly Mitroshin. Kolmar has licenses for steelmaking coalfields in East Siberia's Yakutia region.

Fasting During Ramadan Does Not Cause Preterm Delivery
The study included 201 women from Beirut in their third trimester who fasted during the day for the entire month of Ramadan. The results of the observation were compared to data from 201 pregnant women who did not fast during this period. The number of preterm births i.e. babies born before the age of 37 weeks was equal in both groups. Preterm delivery before 32 weeks was slightly more common in the women who fasted (3 preterm births as compared to 1); however the difference was not statistically significant.
The average birth weight of babies in the group who fasted was 3 kg. This was less than the average birth weight of babies in the group who had not fasted during this period; the average weight of babies from this group was 3.2 kg. The effects of this decrease in birth weight due to fasting over prolonged periods have not been studied. The weight gain of the mothers during the fasting period was an average of 1.6 kg in those who fasted as compared to 2.3 kg in those who did not fast.
The study is quite small to generalize the results on larger populations. The duration of fasting during Ramadan varies between countries; this factor should be taken into account while applying the results of this study to other populations.

DENVER (AP) — Pavel Datsyuk knocked in a rebound at 4:45 of overtime, and the Detroit Red Wings beat the Colorado Avalanche 3-2 on Friday night to hold onto seventh place in the Western Conference.
Datsyuk, who had two goals, ended the game after Henrik Zetterberg put a shot on net that goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere didn't cover. Datsyuk reached out to poke in the puck as defenseman Matt Hunwick was draped all over him.
Jimmy Howard had 32 saves, and Gustav Nyquist had a goal for the Red Wings, who are locked in a tight fight for a playoff spot.
P.A. Parenteau and Mark Olver scored for Colorado, which gave Detroit all it could handle before losing for the 11th time in 13 games.

Keep up with the news by installing RT's extension for . Never miss a story with this clean and simple app that delivers the latest headlines to you.
Renowned German code-breaker Karsten Nohl, who uncovered a design flaw in around 750 million SIM cards around the world leaving them vulnerable to hack attacks, told RT that phone users are helpless against hackers.
View full story
hacking this mans system to know what he knows
lots of nonsense and more just claims no evidence
Good thing the article included vague details to give all those criminals a head start....
It's not a flaw - it's a feature..
first off I have a prepaid cell phone, this cell phone does not have a name or address attached to it. this is perfectly legal. I do not use this phone for business or any illegal activity. I remove the battery until I feel I have to use it.
I can also give this phone to anyone I choose and get another.
They use it all to exploit the people into submission. to install a great fear that everyone is suspect, EVERYONE, you , me, our friends and family
we are the suspects, treated as if we are guilty until we are proven innocent.
t hese electronic devices are nothing more than leashes and we are not the owners.
Really? Smashing a Smartphone against a concrete wall renders it stupid.
It is a backdoor installed by security agencies
so that german did'nt discover the spying done by englsih and americans to sabotage german industry?
Criminals the biggest threat? Don't make me laugh. The gov is the biggest threat.
All mobile phones, and ESPECIALLY "smartphones&qu ot;, are government & corporate surveillance devices.
I'm curious if these are the techniques the NSA uses...
call your phone provider tell them to block your text messages so no hack gets in
the police in the u.k can get into anyones phones the want and do what ever they want! FACT!
I have had police send a text msg from my phone to a mates phone even though i had no credit!!
NSA has all the back doors to monitor anti-USgovt letfy activity.
He picked the lock. I wondered how long it would take before someone broke down the NSAs back door.
obvious NSA backdoor
Its a NSA back door!
This flaw was probably left on purpose for the NSA

Sandcastle supported by Sandcastle Help File Builder - both found on Microsoft's CodePlex site.
A while back I was tasked with replacing our company's previous build-time documentation generation using NDoc (now deceased). Sandcastle was the proposed new method. After researching it, I found that Sandcastle is a mess of utilities produced by Microsoft to generate documentation. Trying to implement those utilities on their own is a nightmare.
Sandcastle Help File Builder is an incredibly useful layer that uses the Sandcastle utilities but makes the creation of a documentation project a million times easier. The developer behind it has been very responsive in the CodePlex forums when I've requested help.
It provides a GUI for configuring your project and produces a project file that is compatible with MSBuild. I set ours up to generate the SHFB project on the fly, run it with MSBuild, and output to our internal API web server. Works great.
There is a very good explanation of how to use XML Comments and Sandcastle (and a nice wallchart too) here http://www.simple-talk.com/dotnet/.net-tools/taming-sandcastle-a-.net-programmers-guide-to-documenting-your-code/

Berkmar grad Martin Lugo's score just before halftime stood as the game-winner as the Georgia Gwinnett men's soccer team posted a 2-1 victory at Truett-McConnell College on Saturday afternoon in Cleveland for the team's 10th victory of the season.
The Grizzlies are now 10-4 on the year and 25-6-1 over the program's first two seasons. The Bears fell to 7-6-2 with the loss.
David Burke opened the scoring in the 10th minute, with Ibrahima Sissoko picking up the assist as GGC took a 1-0 lead.
Lugo added to the lead in the final seconds of the first half, tallying his team-leading eighth goal of the season with an assist from Patrick DaCosta.
Truett-McConnell cut the Grizzly lead in half with a score from Gavin Duff in the 54th minute, but the GGC defense allowed just three shots on goal and held on for the victory.
Lewis Sharpe made a pair of saves in goal for the Grizzlies, who outshot TMC, 18-7.
The game marked the middle of a five-game road trip for the Grizzlies, who are 6-1 away from Lawrenceville this year. GGC returns to action Saturday with a 3 p.m. contest at Montreat College (N.C.) on the NSCAA TV Game of the Week.

The United States' Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is funding new research that could reduce the dimensions of lithium-ion batteries used in phones, laptops and other electronic devices to the size of a grain of salt. It is hoped that the mini-batteries will be able to power micro- and nano-devices that are been developed for medical research purposes.
According to Medical Daily, one of the researchers involved in the creation of these micro-batteries is Jane Chang, an engineer at the University of California, Los Angeles, who is designing part of the batteries' components. She is working on the electrolyte that the team hopes will allow a charge to flow between electrodes.
Speaking to the medical website, Chang says, "We're trying to achieve the same power densities, the same energy densities as traditional lithium ion batteries, but we need to make the footprint much smaller."
In order to achieve this, the research team is working with engineers at UCLA to maximize the surface-to-volume ratio of micro-pillars and nano-wires. Doing this will increase the batteries' energy density, allowing current to flow through the battery. The team is harnessing a technique called atomic layer deposition, a process that allows layers of material only an atom thick to be sprayed on a surface. Chang has reportedly already applied a solid electrolyte lithium aluminosilicate to these nanomaterials.
While this research is still in the early stages, it opens up a world of possibility for next-gen nano-devices.

Ron Johnson ousted as JC Penney CEO
One of the key aspects of Apple's resurgence under Steve Jobs was the rollout of Apple's insanely profitable retail stores. And the man spearheading Apple's efforts was Ron Johnson, a retail veteran who made a name for himself at Target.
In June 2011, Johnson announced he was leaving Apple to take on the CEO position at J.C. Penney. At the time, Johnson described it as a dream job.
Johnson officially assumed the role of J.C. Penney CEO in November 2011 and struggled to turn things around at the nationwide department store.
Now, CNBC is reporting that Johnson has been ousted from his role as CEO.
Ron Johnson is out as chief executive of the department store chain J.C. Penney, CNBC reported on Monday, citing a source. The company did not return calls for comment. The report did not say who would replace Johnson.
The report notes that during his helm as CEO, shares of J.C. Penney have plummeted by 51 percent while the company's market cap dropped from $6.84 billion to $3.49 billion.
While at J.C. Penney, Johnson attempted to implement the same magic that made Apple's retail stores so successful, albeit with little success. Johnson streamlined the company's brand selection and experimented with doing away with sales racks in an effort to lend an air of premium value to the J.C. Penney shopping experience. Johnson also went so far as to bring in former Apple executives Daniel Walker and Michael Kramer to help him transform J.C. Penney from a has-been department store into a premium shopping location.

It`s great that science can be used to understand the universe instead of trying to destroy it.

Published November 19, 2012
The sun is acting up again.
A virtual solar tsunami was caught on video early Friday morning, with back-to-back solar arcs so large that NASA's cameras couldn't capture the explosions in their entirety.
NASA Video: November 16 Double Solar Prominence
NASA's space-based Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) recorded the images over a four-hour period. The giant loops, called solar prominences, occurred between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. ET on Friday.
Many times larger than the entire Earth, the prominences were so large that they expanded beyond the high-definition camera view of the SDO. (See some of SDO's first sun pictures.)
In the video, hot waves of charged gas—released when tangled solar magnetic fields destabilized and exploded before reconnecting again—arc away from the sun in vast red loops, according to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.
Sun Now at Its Most Active
Both solar prominences will likely have little to no effect on Earth, as they don't appear to be aimed toward the planet.
These giant arcs are the latest in a series of increasing eruptions on the sun as its 11-year cycle of magnetic fluctuations—a time of periodic change in the sun's activity and appearance—nears its peak.
Earlier last week a moderate flare was seen on November 12 and later caused a geomagnetic storm above Earth, resulting impressive northern lights displays by supercharging the Earth's auroras.
Known as a solar maximum, the peak of a cycle sees an increase in sunspots and large solar flares and prominences. Solar maximums can last a couple of years, said Leon Golub, senior astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
"We are in the peak of the cycle right now," Golub said. "The sun is in its most active state." (Related: "Solar Flare Sparks Biggest Eruption Ever Seen on Sun.")
Solar Storms Could Zap Modern Life
This peak could have serious consequences for the electrical grid that surrounds the Earth: Solar flares and prominences, when aimed at the planet, have the potential to disrupt electrical systems and satellites.
"Every technological aspect of our society can be affected by these events," Golub said. "Satellites can be damaged; astronauts can receive a lot of radiation."
The most damaging emissions from big solar storms travel slowly enough to be detected by satellites well before the particles strike Earth, Tom Bogdan, director of the U.S. Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado, told National Geographic News in 2011 (see "What If Biggest Solar Storm on Record Happened Today?").
Scientists are working toward a better way to predict and prevent the damaging effects of a solar storm on Earth.
"We have satellites in space now that can detect these events sooner and better than ever before," the Smithsonian's Golub said. "What we're trying to do is predict which ones to worry about, which ones might be damaging."

Our Mission
The Amy foundation was established to enable women without health insurance to obtain free screening mammograms, and to work with individuals in the medical field to detect breast cancer in its earliest stages. Statistics show that the earlier a tumor is diagnosed the better the survival rate.
Over the past seven years, The Amy Foundation has donated more than $300,000 to our medical partners: Saint Peter's University Hospital in New Brunswick, Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, and University Medical Center at Princeton. In turn, these medical facilities have provided several thousand free mammograms for women in need. A few of those mammograms have resulted in the detection of breast cancer in its earliest stages. Your support of the Amy foundation may have saved the lives of women who received this diagnosis.
Being told that you have breast cancer is surely terrifying news. But knowing that the disease has been discovered when it is most easily treated provides the hope for women and their families.
Most doctors feel that more lives can be saved by taking advantage of early detection tests. Yet uninsured and under- insured women lack the resources needed to get tested. The Amy Foundation remains committed to making the early detection of breast cancer accessible to all women. Please be a part of this effort today.

Pantyhose LoverI love my pantyhose so much! I have worn thigh highs and stockings with garter belts over the years because everyone says they are sexier, more classic or have "easier access". Pantyhose always got a bum rap as far as I'm concerned, they can be very sexy and...

This time of year, many golfers are starting to take lessons and work on their games.
One day at the range, a student of mine, Brian, mentioned that the range reminded him of a laboratory.
Making solid contact when chipping is often tough for the average golfer, many of whom struggle with that aspect of the game because they tend to scoop the ball.
One of the foundation skills in good putting is hitting your putts solidly, on the sweet spot every time.

Had 4 treatments and it was painful. Showed no results and now half of my lower stomach looks lumpy and I have a big bump in the lower area that will not go away. The doctor told me it looks like a hernia.... went to get a second opinion and that doctor said no it is not a hernia appears to be from the lipodissolve. Received all my money back but I look worse than I did before. I am 112 and 5'1" so I just needed the small pooch from having 3 kids go away and now I hate my lower stomach even more. The second opinion doctor suggested I get regular lipo done to even out my stomach. I don't know what to do.
