A tissue engineering solution for segmental defect regeneration in load-bearing long bones
Reichert, J. C., Cipitria, A., Epari, D. R., Saifzadeh, S., Krishnakanth, P., Berner, A., Woodruff, Maria A., Schell, H., Mehta, M., Schuetz, Michael, Duda, G. N., & Hutmacher, D. W. (2012) A tissue engineering solution for segmental defect regeneration in load-bearing long bones. Science Translational Medicine, 4(141), 141ra93.
The reconstruction of large defects (>10 mm) in humans usually relies on bone graft transplantation. Limiting factors include availability of graft material, comorbidity, and insufficient integration into the damaged bone. We compare the gold standard autograft with biodegradable composite scaffolds consisting of medical-grade polycaprolactone and tricalcium phosphate combined with autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 7 (rhBMP-7). Critical-sized defects in sheep - a model closely resembling human bone formation and structure - were treated with autograft, rhBMP-7, or MSCs. Bridging was observed within 3 months for both the autograft and the rhBMP-7 treatment. After 12 months, biomechanical analysis and microcomputed tomography imaging showed significantly greater bone formation and superior strength for the biomaterial scaffolds loaded with rhBMP-7 compared to the autograft. Axial bone distribution was greater at the interfaces. With rhBMP-7, at 3 months, the radial bone distribution within the scaffolds was homogeneous. At 12 months, however, significantly more bone was found in the scaffold architecture, indicating bone remodeling. Scaffolds alone or with MSC inclusion did not induce levels of bone formation comparable to those of the autograft and rhBMP-7 groups. Applied clinically, this approach using rhBMP-7 could overcome autograft-associated limitations.

What is arthroplasty?
Arthroplasty, sometimes called joint replacement surgery, is the replacement or repair of a diseased joint. Joints are the areas where two bones meet. Common types of arthroplasty include hip, knee, and shoulder repair or replacement.
Joints contain ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and lubricating fluid. Arthroplasty involves removing arthritic or damaged surfaces of bone and replacing them with artificial material or an implant called a prosthesis. Arthroplasty can restore pain-free motion and full function in a diseased joint.
Arthroplasty is a common but major surgery with significant risks and potential complications. You may have less invasive treatment options. Consider getting a second opinion about all of your treatment choices before having an arthroplasty.
Types of arthroplasty
The types of arthroplasty procedures include:
- Hemiarthroplasty (partial arthroplasty) is the removal and replacement of one side or part of the joint.
- Total arthroplasty is the removal and replacement of an entire joint.
Why is arthroplasty performed?
Your doctor may recommend an arthroplasty to treat severe joint damage caused by:
- Joint infections, also called septic arthritis
- Joint injuries, including fractures, torn ligaments, and torn cartilage, which may lead to irreversible joint damage
- Osteoarthritis, or degenerative joint disease, a breakdown of cartilage and bones within the joint, resulting in pain, stiffness and swelling. It is the most common reason for arthroplasty.
- Osteonecrosis, or death of bone. Osteonecrosis is a rare condition.
- Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease characterized by joint inflammation
Your surgeon may only consider arthroplasty for you if other treatments that involve less risk of complications have been ineffective. Ask your surgeon about all of your treatment options and consider getting a second opinion before deciding on arthroplasty.
Who performs arthroplasty?
An orthopedic surgeon or podiatric surgeon performs arthroplasty. Orthopedic surgeons specialize in conditions of the bones and connective tissues. Podiatric surgeons are podiatrists who specialize in foot and ankle surgery.
How is arthroplasty performed?
Your arthroplasty will be performed in a hospital. The surgery involves making an incision in the joint to remove damaged cartilage and bone. Your surgeon then replaces the damaged areas with artificial material or an implant called a prosthesis.
Surgical approaches to arthroplasty
Your surgeon will perform an arthroplasty using one of the following approaches:
- Minimally invasive surgery involves inserting special instruments and an arthroscope through small incisions in the joint. The arthroscope is a thin, lighted instrument with a small camera that sends pictures to a video screen. Your surgeon sees the inside of your joint on the video screen while performing the surgery. Minimally invasive surgery generally involves a faster recovery and less pain than open surgery. This is because it causes less trauma to tissues and organs. Your surgeon uses small incisions instead of a larger one used in open surgery. Surgical tools are threaded around structures, such as muscle or tendons, instead of cutting through or displacing them as in open surgery.
- Open surgery involves making a large incision in the joint. An open incision allows your surgeon to directly see and access the joint. Open surgery generally involves a longer recovery and more pain than minimally invasive surgery. Open surgery requires a larger incision and more cutting and displacement of muscle and other tissues than minimally invasive surgery. Despite this, open surgery may be a safer or more effective method for some patients.
Your surgeon may combine a minimally invasive procedure with an open surgery. Your surgeon will advise you on which procedure is best for you and how long you need to stay in the hospital based on your diagnosis, age, medical history, general health, and possibly your personal preference. Learn about the different types of arthroplasty and ask why your surgeon will use a particular type for you.

Are Today's Leadership Lessons Getting in the Way of Your Success?August 24th, 2013 . by Cathy Standiford
For years, professional business women like me learned (sometimes the hard way), that in order to succeed we had to behave more like "the guys." Look at business fashion for women over the last 20 to 30 years, and you'll see what I mean. Remember those button-down blouses with the bow neckties (that were always coming undone)? Remember the boxy pantsuits? Today's business fashion for women has changed, and fortunately, so has some of the conventional wisdom on what it takes to be a successful leader. The corporate world is beginning to recognize (albeit slowly) that some characteristics commonly demonstrated by women are actually good for business.
But there's just one little problem.
A recent article by Dana Theus in SmartBlog on Leadership warns us that current day messages about what it takes to be an effective leader may be dangerous for us women. Why? Because some of them are intended "to help men overcompensate for some testosterone-induced bad habits. These bad boss habits include lack of empathy, rigidity and egotism."
Unfortunately, those particular characteristics are typically not problem areas for women. Discover three leadership "truths" women should ignore and why we should be "filtering out the stuff the guys need", but we don't.

Singing Tesla coils perform the theme to Doctor Who
We love Tesla coils for all their spectacular lightning-throwing abilities, but one their underappreciated abilities is making music. The bolts that the coils fire happen to create "crisply distorted" square waves that sound a bit like synthesizers. Some clever folks noticed this and founded ArcAttack! which uses a unique DJ system combined with the coils to put on the kind of music show we can't help but love — the kind with lightning bolts flying back and forth.
Seen here the ArcAttack! crew gets their tamed Tesla coils to sing the oft-synthesized theme from Doctor Who. Once you're done watching the impressive performance, check out some candid pics of the coils below.

Marsh Vincent, Mick McCarty, and Tommy Lewis were inseparable friends during their naval academy years, each man in love with the beautiful, unattainable Glory Hawthorne. Only Tommy wins her heart and marries Glory after graduation. Different skills set the three men on separate paths in the Navy, but they are all forever changed by the Pearl Harbor attack on December 7, 1941.
Glory, now Tommy's widow, is a tough Navy nurse still grieving her loss while trying to save lives at the Pearl Harbor naval hospital. Marsh, a surface ship officer, finds himself in the thick of terrifying sea combat from Guadalcanal, through the turning point at Midway, to a climactic showdown with the Japanese fleet at Leyte Gulf. Mick, a hotshot fighter pilot with a drinking problem and a chip on his shoulder, seeks redemption after a series of failures leaves him grounded and ashamed.
Filled with wide-screen action, romance, and heroism tinged with the brutal reality of war, Pacific Glory is an old-fashioned military adventure of the first order.
©2011 P. T. Deutermann (P)2011 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
Praise for Pacific Glory:
"Epic, eloquent, stirring...a war novel that is both sweeping and intensely personal." (Library Journal
"Pacific Glory is a tale brilliantly told for anyone who loves history or an adventure in the spirit of Patrick O'Brian. Deutermann's eye for capturing the romance, valor, and sacrifice of life at sea is unforgettable. From the first pages, as Deutermann reels you in, you are hooked, drawn into the past and finally delivered back to the future, a journey taken with unforgettable characters." (Doug Stanton, New York Times bestselling author of Horse Soldiers and In Harm's Way)
"Authentic down to the last riveting detail, Pacific Glory will mesmerize anyone who wants to relive the U.S. Navy's war with Japan – while a mysterious love story about three Annapolis men in love with the same exotic woman winds through the bomb blasts and salvos." (Thomas Fleming, New York Times bestselling author of Time and Tide)
"A real hit"
Simply an outstanding book. This is the first time I have read/listened to Deutermann and it will not be my last. Very good author in my book. Dick Hill is most likely my favorite narrator and as always he did a fantastic job.
I was born in 1946 after WWII but it was a big part of my parents life and learned much about it over the years. I like the human part of this story. Bringing in the human element is not often done in books about this war. It was needed and incredible. In the last part of this story, I cried a lot. I needed to do that and the story was incredible, not to mention the author notes at the end of the book. It is totally special and a time in our history that we can be proud of. That doesn't seem to be the case with today's wars. I'm not certain why that it because our men and women in the Middle East deserve all of the best we have to give them. Read this book, consume it and get into the human's in this incredible story. Get it, consume it and cry about it. I cry for our soldiers today also.
"Intriguing storyline - great historical detail!"
I would listen again because it presented fascinating historical details about WW 2 as well as having a great storyline with enough twists to make it fascinating to the end.
One of the most memorable moments was when Beauty Vincent made the decision to turn Evans and torpedoe the Japanese ship.
My favorite scene was when Commander Vincent was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Truman. I can't remember the last time a book brought me to tears.
The graphic details about the battles depicted in the book make me want to call every friend and family member who has been or is currently in the military and thank them for their service. We can never repay them.
Speaker, Coach, Author - in Reno, NV (A GREAT place!) I've been an avid Audible fan for several years. Listen on my iPhone many hours each week.
"Best of PT Deutermann"
I have listened to all of the previous PT Deutermann books and almost didn't buy this one because it seemed like it was out of his normal writing genre. WOW! Am I glad I bought it and I have recommended it to many others. Compelling on so many levels - and Dick Hill, as always, is excellent. He spoils us with his amazing narration. Buy this and listen soon.
"Pacific Glory"
One of the best books that Mr Deuterman has writen and Mr Hills Narration was wonderful Thanks.
I love books!
"a good story"
PT Deutermann is a pretty good author. My first book of his was set in Israel where current day people were trying to solve an ancient mystery and it was pretty good. I hadn't heard of this author prior to that and when i started looking at his other works only then did I realize most were World War II stories, specifically the Navy in the Pacific theater. This book is pretty far ranging starting around the time of Guadalcanal and going right up until the time right before the Philippines were liberated. The author has an extensive Navy background so you feel like the descriptions of the battles are about as realistic as one could get, pretty brutal. I'm not much of a boat expert so I didn't know many of the technical terms aboard a ship but that didn't really distract from the story. Throw in some fiction, some romance and you have the makings of a good tale. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will look forward to my next Deutermann.
"Great Book, Great Narration"
The story was great and Dick Hill is one of Audible's best narrators
Good, as Always.
"Captures you from the start"
War stories are not something I typically enjoy, but Deutermann is easily my favorite author so I thought it was worth a try. I am so glad I bought it. I was engaged by the end of the first chapter. Characters were really brought to life. Absolutely wonderful!
"Pacofic Glory"
This is a Deutermann classic. I have listenened to most of his books and found Pacific Glory to be his best. Narration by Dick Hill was outstanding.
"A fantastic listen!"
I've always been a Deutermann fan, but seldom read much WWI or WWII fiction - it's just not my thing. That said, I found this book to be exceptional in every way; the characters are extremely well written and fleshed out, and the story is funny and sad and scary and exciting in all the best possible ways.
On the narration side, I was very pleased; I've always been a Dick Hill fan, but in the past, have found his rendering of female voices to be kind of whiny and grating; for me, this book was a huge improvement.
Overall, I highly recommend this book, even if you think the topic isn't one you're normally interested in.

Product Details
Producers: Jed & Lucia; Letherette
SummaryJust a few months after the birth of their son, and the release of their debut Ubiquity album, Jed and Lucia return to the studio having dreamed-up a new EP which features a brand new track, a remix by Letherette, and two remixes of tracks from the "Superhuman Heart" album.
"Helium" finds the duo locking in on the best aspects of their album, which All Music called "The perfect soundtrack to your lazy autumn days." By combining breezy vocals that breathe life into a wash of pristine keyboards and evocative piano, Jed and Lucia have created a beautiful synth-pop welcome to spring sunshine. Letherette take the original version on a beat-driven journey from sparse mellow-shoe gaze hip hop to head-nodding irresistible force, allowing wisps of vocals to leak out into the atmosphere amidst a crescendo of pulsing synths.
The flipside sees the machines in their studio infiltrate the Jed and Lucia files, and they reconfigure their folksy songs, spitting them out covered in a new shiny format. "These re-workings were inspired by the Shlohmo remix on our first 10"," explains Mark Reveley. "Painted Stairs" and "The Park" have transformed from gentle laid-back album-style songs to more aggressive beat-heavy joints fueled by a barrage of scattershot mechanical finger snaps and heavyweight low end persuasion.
"Painted Stairs" was leaked on the Label Love digital compilation (from Ubiquity, Tru Thoughts, Plug, Ninja Tune MPM and One Handed) which RCRDLBL re-posted saying, "Every so often, an artist will alter their sound to such a degree that it makes you listen to their music in a different way...Berkeley duo Jed & Lucia make you realize that you were watching Avatar without the 3-D glasses. Gentle, electronic-tinged folk-pop."
Jed and Lucia are Emma Lucia and Mark Reveley. Mark comes from Bainbridge Island, Washington, while Emma grew up as a second generation Swede in Los Angeles. They met and started making music together in 1995, playing together in various groups until starting Jed and Lucia in 2005. They lived together in various desert outposts at the fringes of Los Angeles until 2008 when they moved up to the Bay Area and to the hills of Berkeley. "Superhuman Heart" was released in 2010 and is a kaleidoscope of tunes dreamed-up and recorded in the parks and woods around their house. Their pastoral setting and sensibility has been warped by a love for electronics and while their vocal harmonies smack of classic 1960s Cali-pop, Jed and Lucia's acoustic guitars and poignant lyrics are subverted by sun-drenched synths and bass lines.

Happy anniversary! AmeriCorps turns 20
Pres. Obama was joined by Former Pres. Bill Clinton last Friday for a special AmeriCorps swearing-in ceremony on the White House lawn in celebration of the program's 20th anniversary. Several thousand AmeriCorps volunteers were sworn into service at more than 80 ceremonies across the country.
The first class of AmeriCorps volunteers were sworn into service on Sept. 12, 1994. Since that day, more than 900,000 volunteers have worked with community organizations across the country, particularly those providing afterschool and summer learning programs. AmeriCorps currently engages more than 75,000 men and women at more than 15,000 locations including nonprofits, schools, public agencies, and community- and faith-based groups across the country. During their year of service, AmeriCorps members help communities with a wide range of issues including disaster services, economic opportunity, education and healthy futures. AmeriCorps volunteers are a key part of the afterschool workforce. They provide essential staffing for many programs, where they mentor, teach skills such as computer programming, and coach sports. AmeriCorps members make it possible for afterschool programs to serve children and youth in many communities.

Jim Jeffords: A founder of the movement to expand afterschool programs, a hero to children and families
By Jodi Grant
This post was originally published on Huffington Post's Education Blog. Read the original post and share your thoughts with the HuffPost community.
Before former Sen. James Jeffords of Vermont introduced the first legislation to provide federal funding for afterschool in 1994, the federal government played essentially no role in providing meaningful support and programming for young people in the hours after the school day ended and before parents arrived home from work. Sen. Jeffords, who passed away on Aug. 18 at the age of 80, was a pioneer in the national afterschool movement. He worked tirelessly to build congressional and presidential support for a national afterschool and summer learning program infrastructure that lives on today as the 21st Century Community Learning Centers initiative (21st CCLC).
Sen. Jeffords had many proud accomplishments, including chairing the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee and helping to shape the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the No Child Left Behind Act and the Higher Education Act. But advocates for afterschool remember him best as one of the original authors of the legislation that created the 21st CCLC.

Engaging a Problem: Auburn Girl Attends STEM Camp in Syracuse (Citizen, New York)
Syracuse University opened its doors this summer to promote talented seventh and eighth grade girls
' interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) curricula. "The idea is that a lot of girls at that age turn away from science and math," Project Engage Summer Program Coordinator Carol Stokes-Cawley told the Citizen, explaining how Project Engage is there to show the girls that STEM is for them. The students explored STEM topics to a greater depth of what they would in their schools' science labs, pushing the limits of nanoparticles to determine their breaking points and creating prosthetics out of ordinary objects, afterwards calculating their properties, volume, flexibility , and strength.

Rally Offers Pittsburgh Public Schools' Youth Chance to Grow Through Art (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Pennsylvania)
Once again, students in the Art Activism summer program displayed a wide range of artistic abilities at the annual MGR Youth Rally for Change. The program provides free academic and artistic instruction for Pittsburgh students in grades K-8 and encourages them to pursue the art form they find most appealing. Some chose to sculpt and take photographs, others, dance. Art Activism does more than help the students learn these mediums, but also promotes using these new tools as a way to express themselves, giving them a voice or an outlet with which to cope with problems, reports the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. The Pittsburgh Public Schools' Summer Dreamers Academy offers free academic and arts instruction for k-8 students seeking to close the summer learning gap for children from economically disadvantaged families.
Go2College Gives Silver Spring Students the 411 (The Gazette, Maryland)
Middle school students in Silver Spring discovered this summer that it's never too early to start thinking about college. The new Go2College summer program introduced the students, many of whom would be the first in their families to go to college, to everything from college lingo and dorm rooms to questionnaires designed to help the students decide what careers would best suit them. Cynthia Rubenstein, executive director of Passion for Learning, one of the nonprofits supporting Go2College, told The Gazette that the program is intended to help the students understand what a college experience entails and what they can do to prepare for it, saying, "It's become less abstract for them."

Guest Blog: The summer camp's academic achievement link
George Garrow is the executive director of Concerned Black Men National.
This week, the CBM Summer Camp Experience comes to an end. Concerned Black Men National sponsors a "camp" for low-income elementary school kids in the nation's capital every year. The children who attend the five week, day-long sessions come from families whose parents otherwise might not be able to afford to send their kids to a summer program that offers free meals, safety and structure, and equally important, a quality out-of-school-time experience. The young people in our program are wide-eyed and curious about the world like those who attend summer camps throughout the country. They join the tens of thousands of children who attend a variety of camps or similar events during the summer months.

New BGCA Great Futures Campaign elevates the role of out-of-school time
This week the Boys & Girls Clubs of America launched the Great Futures Campaign to call attention to the crisis facing America's young people and to "redefine the opportunity equation" by elevating the role of out-of-school-time programs in reversing negative trends like poor academic performance, obesity, drug use, and youth-related violence. The Great Futures Campaign seeks to mobilize the nation in support of afterschool and summer learning programs that tackle these issues to inspire and empower more youth toward success.
The campaign identifies out-of-school-time programs as a key component of the solution to America's youth crisis—but emphasizes that every day, 15 million kids (1 in 4) leave school with no place to go, putting them at risk of being unsupervised, unguided and unsafe. During the summer, an alarming 43 million (3 out of 4) kids in America lack access to summer learning programs, increasing their risk of learning loss and putting them at a disadvantage for the next school year.
The Afterschool Alliance supports the Great Futures Campaign in its mission to build additional support for afterschool, before school and summer learning programs. Research shows that out-of-school-time programs work: young people who attend afterschool and summer learning programs have better attendance, improved behavior, higher grades and improved test scores among other outcomes. Boys & Girls Clubs offer a variety of programs in the areas of education, health and nutrition, and character and leadership development at its more than 4,100 clubs nationwide. BGCA is also developing new programs to close the achievement gap for children most in need, including expanding programs like Summer Brain Gain to prevent summer learning loss, enhance STEM programs to nurture 21st century skills, and deploy a robust teen engagement strategy to ensure more young adults are on track to graduate from high school and become college- or career-ready.

Young Kids Learn Spanish at Nebraska Summer Camp (Associated Press, Nebraska)
Students at Grand Island's YWCA's Immersion Ranch Summer Camp are finding that learning a foreign language is fun! The summer program is teaching young students Spanish through games and activities. Participating preschool and elementary aged students can only speak English freely for ten minutes per day during this weeklong program. The rest of the three hours is spent learning the basics, including directions, animals and much more. Instructor Lisa Brown-Olsen told the Associated Press that at this age, the children are predisposed to learning the language well because their minds are like sponges.
New York Students Are Spending Their Summer in City's Top Kitchens (Wall Street Journal, New York)

The aspiring chefs are part of the Careers through Culinary Arts Program, a nonprofit dedicated to creating opportunities for at-risk young people to enter the food industry. Chef Daniel Boulud told the Wall Street Journal, that for young people this program is essentially "like opening one of the greatest cookbooks and living through it." The students gain valuable, real-life experiences, from honing their knife skills to balancing flavors to plating intricate dishes.
Young Riders Earn Their Bikes in Church Program (Cape Cod Times, Massachusetts)

Multidimensional scaling of proximity matrix
[S,E] = mdsProx(B)
[S,E] = mdsProx(B,'param1',val1,'param2',val2,...)
[S,E] = mdsProx(B) returns scaled coordinates, S, and eigenvalues, E, for the proximity matrix in the ensemble B. An earlier call to fillProximities(B) must create the proximity matrix.
[S,E] = mdsProx(B,'param1',val1,'param2',val2,...) specifies optional parameter name/value pairs:
|Array of indices of observations in the training data to use for multidimensional scaling. By default, this argument is set to 'all'. If you provide numeric or logical indices, the method uses only the subset of the training data specified by these indices to compute the scaled coordinates and eigenvalues.
|If you supply this argument, mdsProx makes overlaid scatter plots of two scaled coordinates using specified colors for different classes. You must supply the colors as a string with one character for each color. If there are more classes in the data than characters in the supplied string, mdsProx only plots the first C classes, where C is the length of the string. For regression or if you do not provide the vector of true class labels, the method uses the first color for all observations in X.
|Indices of the two scaled coordinates to plot. By default, mdsProx makes a scatter plot of the first and second scaled coordinates which correspond to the two largest eigenvalues. You can specify any other two or three indices not exceeding the dimensionality of the scaled data. This argument has no effect unless you also supply the 'colors' argument.

China said Friday it was sending a warship to help a COSCO Shipping cargo ship that was attacked by pirates in the Indian Ocean near East Africa.
China's Xinhau news agency said 26 crewmembers of the COSCO Lecong had fought off the attack, which occurred on Thursday, and that one crewmember had been injured.
The agency said the warship was sent from escort duty in the Gulf of Aden, off the coast of Somalia, to help the cargo vessel.
Piracy news from JOC:
Marad Warns of Increasing Pirate Attacks.
COSCO Group lists the 10-year-old Lecong as one of about 65 multi-purpose general cargo vessels in the shipping group's fleet.
Maritime groups have warned that Somalia-based pirates have grown more aggressive in their attacks on ships in recent months, and launched attacks further from shore. The International Maritime Organization says the pirates hold at least 20 ships and have kidnapped some 100 crew and passengers from ships in the region in the past month.

Juneteenth parade celebrates history, tradition
A parade in Omaha Saturday celebrated Juneteenth, which marks the abolition of slavery in the United States.
"If we weren't free, nothing that's going on in the world today would be possible," said Marquisha Chandler.
Saturday's Juneteenth parade kicked off near 30th and Lake.
Not many spectators showed up, but participants said they would march, rain or shine.
"If April showers bring May flowers, in June you just don't know what you're going to get. In Nebraska, that's just how it rolls," said Symone Sanders. "There's no reason we shouldn't have this parade, so even if no one's out here, people are still going to march just for history."
It lets the city know that whether you're in North South East or West Omaha we can all come together for a good cause, Sanders said.
The Juneteenth celebration continues with a flag raising ceremony, fair for the family and a events in the evening.

I'd been looking forward to Melissa & Eric's Ritz Carlton Wedding ever since she reached out to me about working together. The Ritz is one of my favorite venues for so many reasons. Having the perfect October day for their outdoor ceremony and reception was exactly what I'd hoped for. Every detail was perfect and beautiful. After their ocean front ceremony, everyone enjoyed dinner, dancing under the stars and an after party inside to finish out the night. I loved working with them and am excited to share some of my favorites from the day.

Rovio releases the conclusion to Angry Bird Star Wars with 30 new levels and Death Star showdown
Just in time for the holidays, Rovio has dropped a new update of Angry Birds Star Wars into the App Store that features the epic conclusion of pigs versus birds. Angry Birds Star Wars version 1.5 adds a whopping 30 new levels to the first Angry Birds/Star Wars mashup.
Players can now fight their way through 15 space battles featuring an Imperial Star Destroyer and another 15 levels that take place on the rebuilt Death Star. At the end of the game, players will finally face the Emperor and "Lard Vader" and find out who's behind Vader's mask in the finale.
Upon its release a little over a year ago Angry Birds Star Wars received both user and critical acclaim, with many noting the care Rovio took to remain faithful to the source material. Angry Birds Star Wars was one of the most popular Angry Birds games ever, which led to a sequel, Angry Birds Star Wars II, released earlier this year.
Angry Birds Star Wars is US$0.99 for iPhone and Angry Bird Star Wars HD is $2.99 for iPad.

BOSTON, Massachusetts (Bloomberg) -- ArcLight Capital Partners LLC is seeking $4 billion for a private-equity fund to take advantage of rising demand for infrastructure to support the shale boom.
The firm's sixth fund will focus on North American investments in pipelines, storage, terminals, electric transmission and production of oil and natural gas, said two people with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be named because the information is private. The amount sought is more than the $3.3 billion raised by ArcLight's last fund in 2011.
Heidi Milne, a spokeswoman at Boston-based ArcLight, declined to comment on the fundraising plans.
A surge in exploration and production of North American shale formations is creating a demand for infrastructure to support the transport and storage of crude and natural gas, spurring private-equity firms to target a collective $39 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Mergers and acquisitions of North American energy companies rose to about $215 billion in the past 12 months, the most since at least 2002. Richard Kinder, chairman of Houston-based Kinder Morgan Inc., is signaling that he may target pipeline competitors for takeovers after a consolidation freed up billions of dollars.
ArcLight committed $400 million in July to Republic Midstream LLC, a new venture that will build and operate a crude-oil gathering system in the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas. This year it formed AL Warwick Holdings LLC, which develops oil and gas leasehold interests at Eagle Ford.
Fund Returns
ArcLight-backed Enable Midstream Partners LP, which operates natural gas and crude oil infrastructure assets, went public in an April stock sale that raised $575 million.
The firm's 2011 fund was producing a 17% net internal rate of return and a multiple of 1.2 times invested capital as of June 30, according to one of the people. A 2007 pool was generating a 13% net IRR and 1.4 multiple.
Founded in 2001 by Daniel Revers and Robb Turner, ArcLight has invested more than $11 billion in 84 deals, according to the firm's website.

US Economy Gets Lift From Housing, Other Tailwinds
A temporary Social Security tax cut expired this year, reducing Americans' take-home pay. It will cost a typical household making $50,000 a year about $1,000. A household with two high-paid workers will lose up to $4,500. The drop in pay could slow consumer spending.
The Social Security tax cut, in place for two years, was allowed to expire in the deal reached between the White House and Congress to avoid the fiscal cliff.
Most economists expect the higher Social Security tax to bite hardest in the first three months of the year. But after Americans adjust to the sudden cut, its impact should lessen over time.If federal budget issues can be resolved, the economy could start to accelerate. Analysts forecast only modest growth this year of about 2 percent. But they think growth will strengthen as the year goes on. JPMorgan Chase, for example, forecasts that the economy will grow at an anemic annual rate of just 1 percent in the January-March quarter. But as the drag from higher taxes fades and the debt ceiling is resolved, growth could pick up to a decent 3 percent pace by the October-December quarter. Diane Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow Financial, expects housing and other tailwinds to accelerate growth this year â¿¿ as long as budget "shenanigans" don't dampen consumer and business confidence as they did in 2011. "Could we get 3.5 percent growth by the end of this year?" she asks. "If we can get over this budget stuff, absolutely." __ Follow Chris Rugaber on Twitter at https://Twitter.com/ChrisRugaber

Cover model, BSN athlete, and martial arts expert Julien Greaux takes you to the gym and shows you how he Gets Ripped and Stays Big, 365 days a year. Check him out!
Julien Greaux's 12-Week Diet Plan
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese
- 1 cup Strawberries
- 2 Whole Grain Tortillas

- 2 Lean Beef Patties

- 1 cup cooked Oatmeal

I'm going to be doing this, but ... Any tips on how to go shopping for this kind of stuff? I mean, buying the same thing for 3 months is going to get old really fast. Even if you have chicken like twice in a row then beef twice in a row, pretty soon you'll be sick of eating chicken and beef...
Any tips/suggestions for substitutions?
u can ground turkey, turkey cutlets, salmon and different white fish for protein variation.
Plain greek yogurt with fresh fruit could replace the cottage cheese. Also consider cooking your meats with different spices. There are literally millions of posibilities.
chicken breast and outmeal? .....!what happened to sweet patato
I would just follow the diet to the best of your ability. I think to achieve the body of your dreams it takes sacrifice there is no way around it either man up and chase it or you can cut it short along with your gains.
It seems like a lot of food, has anyone done this diet and had good results ?
have been at this plan for a while... by far the best fat loss solution out there... a lot of times i have found myself eating right but still slightly gaining..as i keep progressing i am going on slightly increasing speed and intensity... the results r getting better and better...
I agree^
i went through a bulking phase and gained a little too much fat
and this program cut it all off in 4 weeks
o try the lean beef with the tortillas
Yeah. . .it'll still work. Supplements do exactly what the name implies. They supplement your results and bring out that little extra to help you meet your goals. If you arent getting results on a program as it is, you probably won't see major results from adding supplements. That being said, the protein shakes on this program make up for calorie deficits that limit gains.
Cottage cheese has a lot of sodium. there are sodium-free cottage cheese products, but they are hard to find. Look at how much sodium is in one serving of cottage cheese. I like simple, so I am going to try this. when you add garlic for heart health, and peppers for metabolism, cilantro, etc. this diet can be very creative.
Is there anything I can replace "Day 5 - 6 Exercise Upper Body Circuit" with?
The reason being I have a home gym and do not have a cable machine
Cheap fix for not having proper equipment is Rubber Bands. I am very limited here in Afghanistan but with creativity and my bands I manage to still do most of the exercises in any of the programs I have tried. Bands that have clips ti hook up multiple colors are best so your not trying to hold to many seperate handles at once
i'm gonna pass on the rice because of this: http://www.voanews.com/content/tests_show_levels_of_arsenic_in_us_rice/1512805.html
There would't be any objections if you exercised every day? Not just doing the program (just on days 1-5) but doing your respective sport as well? Including during the 3 off days (being day 3,6 and 7)? All you would have to do is incorporate the supplements accordingly, right?
Also I would do this workout (On days 1-5) in the morning right before school and then after school work on my sport training. Is it best if i would have meal one in the morning when I wake up then head to the gym to do the program, then after the workout have my supplements? Or meal 1 after workout with supplements?
Hello, I want to start this program to shed extra flab around my belly. I want to ask that what should i eat pre and post workout because i m not taking the supplements which are mentioned in this program. The only supplement i can afford is Universal Uniliver Tablets. Waiting for your valuable suggestions . Thanks

This seems somehow outdated, would it still work in 2013? I mean, the training and supplements.
Julien I have some questions! Should I eat, then work out, then take my shake? Where should the workout fit in between all this, or just take the shakes as 2 meals a day and not after a workout unless its the next meal? Anyone got any ideas?
Question: how much food should girls eat on this workout?
I doubt you'll see this reply, but for any other ladies that are curious: the same of everything just a little less protein.
You will typically have less muscle mass than men, so your daily protein requirement will be lower.

My research broadly spans security and privacy. A few of the research questions I'm now exploring or interested in are:
- Honey objects: How can we create fake data that deceive adversaries, and how can we deploy them to defend real-world systems?
- Post-privacy systems: If privacy erodes to the point of indefensibility, how can we enforce fair use of data and fair decision-making?
- Virtual currency: Bitcoin is intriguing, but just one point in a large design space. How might we make virtual currencies better and more relevant to ordinary users?
- Cloud security: How can cloud providers best provide security for their tenants? How can tenants best protect themselves from threats in the cloud?
- Security, privacy, and physiology: I'm interested broadly in data security perspectives on biometrics, neuroscience, and medical data.
You can find my publications here.

CHAPEL HILL UNC system leaders are temporarily setting aside their request for $74 million in new construction money for 2014-15 in response to concerns from State Budget Director Art Pope, who called the original UNC budget request unrealistic.
In a memo to Pope that was copied to Gov. Pat McCrory and legislative leaders, UNC Board of Governors Chairman Peter Hans and UNC President Tom Ross said they were "keenly aware" of the budget challenges facing the state.
"We understand that resources will once again be tight and that state leaders will be forced to make hard choices about how best to use those limited resources," they wrote in the March 11 memo.
Pope, in an interview Wednesday, said he has had constructive meetings and discussions with the UNC leadership.
"I think this is a very positive response and step forward," Pope said of the plan described in the memo.
Pope did not rule out the possibility that the UNC campuses might receive state money for new construction. Some was funded last year, he said. "We'll look at specific capital projects," he said.
The university system is standing by its requested increase of more than $108 million in additional operating money, or 4.6 percent more than the 2013-14 appropriation.
In the memo, UNC leaders argued that the request is only 1.5 percent more than the university spent in 2012-13 and $8.2 million less than was expended in 2007-08.
The university system is also prioritizing a more modest request for repair and renovation funds. The original request put forth by the governing board was $163 million for repairs. Now, according to the memo, the system will put its needs in priority order in $30 million, $40 million and $60 million increments.
Coping with cuts
The university has made significant steps in recent years to cope with budget cuts while producing more degree earners, thus becoming more efficient, Ross and Hans said in the memo. Controlling for inflation, spending per degree has decreased by more than 16 percent since 2007-08, the university said.
As for new spending, UNC has proposed to spend $38 million on strategic priorities through other savings and cost-cutting measures within the university.
The UNC system wants the legislature to restore about $50 million in prior cuts, including the repeal of mandated tuition increases and cuts to the medical school at UNC Chapel Hill.
The memo may ease tensions between UNC and Pope, a retail magnate and Republican campaign financier who has been a critic of the university's spending in the past.
Pope's letter
Two weeks ago, he wrote to the UNC board, saying it had not heeded his office's instructions to state agencies in December to come forward with budget expansion requests of no more than 2 percent. The legislature will convene this spring in a short session to tweak the state's spending plan for the second year of a two-year budget cycle.
In the current year, the UNC system received $2.5 billion in state money for operations and $64 million for building repairs and construction.
In his memo, Pope had combined UNC's operating request and its construction and repair requests into one figure of $288 million, or 11.3 percent over this year's budget. And, he pointed out that UNC didn't even include salary increases in that total.
UNC leaders said it did not include salary requests because university employees are considered in the overall state employee raise pool.

The locking latches are off of 96-02 4Runners and are the correct ones that will work for our trucks, according to the mod link on TTORA. These need to be brought to a locksmith so they can rekey it to work with your ignition key or to have them create a separate key for it.
I went with a different key from the ignition so that service techs and valet wouldn't have access to snoop around in my glove box. Cost me about $15 at my local locksmith

Piers Morgan has a growing list of people he doesn't want on his new show.
The host of CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight, which debuted Monday, calls his fellow America's Got Talent judge Howie Mandel irritating, and tells Entertainment Weekly that "he has a chance to redeem himself on Season 6" of the reality competition show. "I don't hold out any hope," he adds.
One show down. A mere 25 years to go. That's if Piers Morgan is going to last as long as the guy he's replacing on ratings-challenged CNN — Larry King.
The British host, best known in the U.S. as a judge on America's Got Talent, will now be judged. Apparently, he hopes the judges will be as kind as they were with his predecessor and first guest, Oprah Winfrey, someone else with a quarter-century endurance record on television.
