Trainer David Pipe has hinted that Red Sherlock is likely to head for the Neptune Investment Management Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham in March.
The five-year-old maintained his unbeaten record with a gutsy display to hold off Rathvinden on Saturday and will head to the Festival with leading claims.
While he will also have an entry in the Albert Bartlett over three miles, Pipe already has the ante-post favourite for that contest in Kings Palace.
"The way in which the front two pulled readily clear of the remainder of the field suggests that this was a very good performance," the Pond House handler wrote on his blog on www.davidpipe.com.
"Heavy going has been known to exaggerate winning distances, although I see no reason why he shouldn't be at least as effective on better ground.
"He can progress further and looks a leading contender for the Neptune in March. He will be given an entry in the Albert Bartlett as well, although we have another likely candidate for that in the shape of Kings Palace."

how many calories should i be eating if i run 20miles a day
Hi everyone! Apologies if i do not put this in the right place/forum as it's my first time.
Background info is i've lost nearly 6 stone through running and until the last 6months i haven't watched my diet but i have now. Thing is i'm running on average 20 miles a day (i know it's become obsessive) and my psychologist is trying to keep me eating over 2000 calories but i like margin for error as i love chocolate and everything that's bad for me! Ideally i'd like to lose another stone to take me to 8 stone but i fear i've plateaued and the weightloss is very slow now despite the exertion of 20miles daily which is, as you can imagine frustrating! Could someone give me some advice as to how much i should eat in order to speed up my weightloss and continue to run like i am?
Thanks in advance. It's probably important to know that i have an acute eating disorder (hence the psychologist) so my fear of putting weight on is extreme so hopefully i won't be trying anything that might enhance my weight AT ALL.
Thanks for being honest about your ED. I think you know that if you are running 140 miles per week it is unlikely that you would need to restrict your calorific intake. No-one on here can comment on whether 8 stone is a sensible target weight for you or not (I say this in light of your extreme fear of gaining weight). You may not need to lose weight at all. I hope that in addition to a psychologist you have been referred to a nutritionist. They will be able to give you the specific advice tailored to your own background which you need.
Thank you for your very prompt responses! I wish i'd have thought about coming on here before. I know that running this much is probably not recommended but the truth is i don't do very well with my thoughts when i have time to myself and so this is kind of a distraction from other problems i have, i think it's the lesser of two evils lol. I'm 23 years old and around 5ft 4/5ft 5inches. Believe it or not i don't particularly like running but can't imagine my life without it- weird yes. As for the psychologist.. well i don't think she really knows what to suggest in terms of calorie intake as it seems there aren't many people who run this much so kind of focusses on other things like body image.
I think 8 stone is what i would like to be or at least see if that's how i feel comfortable as i am yet to feel this. Unfortunately, my goals with running are centred on weightloss but i am running the great north run in aid of the mental health foundation.
Joolska, thank you for giving me the idea that i may not need to worry about calorific intake, i seem to find it difficult to remember how much i've run and in terms of how much i can eat when i have people around me worrying that they have eaten too much when they clearly haven't. The mind boggles lots!
Thanks to cake and m..eldy too, i will keep all in mind.
Ps cake, i luuuuuurrrrvveee your picture lol shameless rules!
Just to add my bit, Jordana, be careful about running so much, quite apart from any other issues, it's a lot of stress on the same parts of the body. If you are not careful, you could end up with an injury which might then mean that all exercise would be out completely.
If your goals are centred on weight loss, then chances are you're not following a running plan which is why I've mentioned injury.
I've got experience of teenagers with eating disorders, so while not experiencing what you're going through, can relate to it.
It's up to your pysch to help you with this, but my advice would be, if you have to exercise, rather than run 20m every day (and I can understand the feeling of "need") try to find an alternative that would allow you to get similar benefits, but at same time, rest the running muscles.
There are plenty of experienced long distance runners on here, they don't run 20m a day because they understand what it might do to their bodies - give it some thought because I'd imagine that if you ended up unable to do any exercise, that would be really bad for you.
Also, if you're running that much, your body may have gone into "self-protect" mode, so that if you're not eating enough calories to support that level of exercise, it's storing them to use when you run, otherwise you'd keel over.
There are lots of books around on nutrition - you could try looking at some of those - Anita Bean does some that might be useful for you.
Great weight loss so far, but take it carefully from here.
How nicely put.
You're running 20 miles a day?
How long have you been doing this?
You are literally running yourself into the ground. And you say you don't even enjoy it.
It's all too easy to become addicted to running - the endorphin rush and feeling of power/control over something is all too tempting if you feel lost in other areas of life.
However, in time you will find this grating on you - physically and emotionally. 140 miles a week is an absurd mileage for a non-elite runner - and it's not necessary whatsoever. You can control your weight and maintain a healthy BMI with regular exercise and healthy eating.
You seem like a character of extremes i.e. all or nothing - a classic trait of ED sufferers. My feeling is that you need to get things in moderation - your eating and your exercise need to become more balanced and less regimented.
It's hard to loosen up when you've created set rules for yourself and feel like your inner demons have control over you but it seems like you've made the first step by admitting you need to change.
Have you talked this through with friends and family? I'm sure people close to you will be worried by the intense training and restricted diet you are enforcing on yourself. It can be scary and your ED can make it seem like they're just out to stop you reaching your goals i.e. losing weight/training harder, longer, faster, farther. Hopefully, with time and patience, you will see that everyone is just there to support and help you out of this hard time though.
You're still only young so you've plenty of time to break these nasty habits and look forward to a more fulfilling life - one where you don't feel trapped by your own rules and restrictions.
Hope you get it sorted.
Jordana - I think you're missing the point. You're not doing anything to be proud of. You're screwing yourself over and the long-term effects could be with you for the rest of your life. I could try to sweeten that in some sort of shit-sandwich if you prefer, but what's the point? You're in a bad place, and you don't yet seem to realise how bad.
I for one most certainly hope that you have not been referred to a nutritionist but have, instead and far more sensibly, been referred to a dietician.
I agree with Intermaut.
Jordana. There are lots of threads on this website that provide fantastic support and encouragement for folk wanting to lose weight or get better at running. Some of them are truly inspirational.
But Im afraid that yours acts only as as a warning to others as to what can go wrong.
I see that you are having treatment with a psychologist. Please, please, take his/ her professional advice, not advice from what essentially is a free website that anyone can post to. You dont sound in good health mentally, and following RW thread advice instead of the Experts could only lead to more trauma for you.
For heavens sake talk to your psycologist and ask his/ her opinion about what you should be doing.
Good luck.
Moving one obsession to another isn't progress IMO.
Listen to the posts above.
Jordana, I have to agree with Water Vole that these forums offer great support and advice. Please hear what people are saying, 20 miles a day is too much, you will hurt yourself, simple as that.
I hated myself before I started running. I was an 18 stone bloke who stuggled to climb the stairs. I'm still 15 stone but can run a half marathon. I run four times a week, my weekly total is 25 miles. I have not put on a pound in weight since this schedule. A healthy diet with the occassional treat and a sensible amount of exercise creates a good balance. I'm happy and fit. Sure I could do even more, but frankly, I'm not going to allow an obsession to control me.
Take care.
Devoted2Distance wrote (see)
Could you possibly do something to ensure you STOP running this mileage i.e. leave your trainers at work or something - just something to physically hinder you so you can get the rest you need?
Or you could have a stress fracture and ignore the advice of everyone else and do what you think is bestSurely if she is obsessed with running she will have several pairs of trainers or is more likely to try an run in some form of unsuitable shoes risking more injury.
You dont need advice from here you need professional help, all you have done is switch from one obsession to another.
Jordana is your psychologist aware of the amount of running you are doing? I find it hard to believe that you have been completely honest with them if they are recommending 2,000 calories a day.
I think you are kidding yourself if you think you're using running to manage an ED. As others have said you have simply swapped one obsession for another. Also, at 20 miles a day you run a very real case of injuring yourself. And then what do you do?? Exercise can be used to manage an ED but I am increasingly convinced that is only when people are in recovery and committed to that recovery. Otherwise it's just another symptom.

It's pretty simple, as-is Windows 8 will be another OS everyone skips till Windows 9 comes out. Like Vista and Windows ME.
Windows 7 works great, does everything I need it to. I'll just stay put.
Posted Fri, Jul 27, 2012 by Martuk
"Valve wouldn't exist if it weren't for the PC. Id Software, Epic, Zynga, Facebook, and Google wouldn't have existed without the openness of the platform. I think there's a strong temptation to close the platform. If people look at what they can accomplish when they can limit competitors' access to their platform, they say, "Wow, that's really exciting." Even some of the people who have open platforms, like Microsoft, get really excited by the idea that Netflix has to pay them rent in order to be on the Internet, said Newell."
Newell worries that some of the top-tier PC manufacturers will exit the market if that happens. This is one reason Valve is pushing to make the games on their Steam platform Linux friendly, to ensure that there is an alternative open platform in case Microsoft makes a move in that direction.
Newell isn't the only one concerned about Windows 8. Blizzard Executive VP of Game Design Rob Pardo has also sounded off on his Twitter feed about Microsoft's restrictive new platform.
nice interview with Gabe Newell - "I think Windows 8 is a catastrophe for everyone in the PC space* - not awesome for Blizzard either— Rob Pardo (@Rob_Pardo) July 25, 2012
Valve and Blizzard aren't alone in their concerns. Google and Mozilla, makers of their own web browsers, are also lashing out over Microsoft's Windows 8 restrictions.
In a May blog, Harvey Anderson, general council for Mozilla, stated:
It's reported that Windows RT (the name Microsoft has given to Windows running on the ARM processor) will have two environments, a Windows Classic environment and a Metro environment for apps. However, Windows on ARM prohibits any browser except for Internet Explorer from running in the privileged "Windows Classic" environment. In practice, this means that only Internet Explorer will be able to perform many of the advanced computing functions vital to modern browsers in terms of speed, stability, and security to which users have grown accustomed. Given that IE can run in Windows on ARM, there is no technical reason to conclude other browsers can't do the same.
Why does this matter to users? Quite simply because Windows on ARM -as currently designed- restricts user choice, reduces competition and chills innovation. By allowing only IE to perform the advanced functions of a modern Web browser, third-party browsers are effectively excluded from the platform. This matters for users of today's tablets and tomorrow's PCs. While ARM chipsets may be primarily built into phones and tablets today, in the future ARM will be significant on the PC hardware platform as well. These environments currently have intense browser competition that benefits both users and developers.
Anderson also called Microsoft's browser practices for Windows 8, "an unwelcome return to the digital dark ages where users and developers didn't have browser choices." The vocal concerns have even drawn the attention of anti-trust regulators, something that Microsoft is no stranger to.
Windows 8 is due to release this October, and while Microsoft hasn't gone into great detail about their plans, it's clear that many have some deep concerns about what may happen if they get too heavy handed with restrictions.
What are your thoughts on Windows 8 and its possible impact on the gaming and browsing experience? Tell us in the comments below.

well said - its clear to me tho that windows 8 is nothing but a OS for the casual Computer and tablet users, something for those who arent gamers/software engineers etc to use casually. Win 7 and Linux are staying on this machine for me and i dont think they will be going anywhere anytime soon.
hahaha at all the lamers leeching off MS who will have to pay now or make ya own damn OS
Its like they don't want customers.
This shows that it is about time other developers create their own Operating system. My computer could handle several so could most computers. One could develop a Blizzard operating system and a Steam (Valve) operating system and so on. Imagine operating systems devoted to specific tasks :) So all you developers out there start making operating systems for around 30 to 40 dollars or forbid for FREE and give MicroSofa a swift kick in the nads. They need some competition to get them off their sofa.
(the Microsofa is intended)

Statoil ASA's Management Hosts Exploration Seminar (Transcript)
Our plan was and still is with this seminar to give you some more insight to dig deeper behind the successful exploration program, which we have run over the last year and a half, tried to explain to you what we do and why we do it, what things are important for us. So, that hopefully through this afternoon, you will understand more about our strategy, more about why we have had the success we had. And hopefully I can build even more trust and confidence in our ability to deliver similar kind of success in the future.
You are all familiar with the updated corporate strategy and hopefully you will recognize that one of the most important or one of the important building blocks on this is to develop a leading global exploration company. As I mentioned to many of you before, that this part or this chapter of the exploration story really started about three years ago. When I was asked to take over the responsibility for the global exploration unit in Statoil, we quickly made a decision that we should revisit our strategy. We should thoroughly examine what we had been doing, what others were doing, and then make a conclusion as to whether we need to change how we were doing things. That strategy was approved at the end of 2009 and subsequently implemented. I'll come back to that.
Then on 1st of January 2011, year and a half ago, there was a major reorganization of the company and the decision was made for exploration to have a seat on the Executive Committee of Statoil. I was asked to take on that position. I was very glad to accept. And that was also one of the elements, which we've drawn up in the strategy that we – it would probably be beneficial for us to have one exploration unit rather than have three. Previously, we had a separate unit for Norway. We had a separate unit for the international exploration. We had a separate technical unit. And I think what it has allowed us to do it's allowed us at least to prioritize in a truly global fashion.

Aran Embleton, one of the stars of up and coming Whitley Bay FC Women is poised to sign for nearby Premier League team Sunderland.
Aran, who has previously played for Sunderland and Doncaster Belles, regularly appeared in England squads before taking a break from the game. She returned to the sport in 2005 playing for newly formed Whitley Bay and scored 46 goals in helping the Bay to win the Durham and Northumberland County League at their first attempt with a 100% winning record.
Whitley have now received official notification from Sunderland that they wish to approach the player.
Manager Colin Phillips has commented - "Within hours of us playing Sunderland in a friendly one of our best players informs me that she wants to sign for them. Losing players to teams from higher leagues is a problem Whitley Bay must now face and is indicative of the progress we have made in a short time"

Sensing that Paul Atreides, the son of Duke Leto, is the Kwizatz Haderach, a super-being, the Spacing Guild, which has a monopoly on inter-planetary travel, asks the Emperor to make sure that Paul dies. The Emperor sends Duke Leto, his family and his army to the water-starved planet Arrakis, known as Dune, where the life-prolonging spice "Melange" is mined. The Emperor goes in league with the evil Baron Harkonnen and the mythic drama unfolds: the murder of Duke Leto, the escape of Paul and his mother from the Harkonnen onslaught. But Paul gradually develops mystic skills and, allied with the desert people and mammoth sandworms they have tamed, defeats the Harkonnens. As the Guild had feared it, Paul Atreides is the man destined to bring the universe out of darkness.

Systems & Software
Video: Automatic Part Verification Through Reference Comparison
Because the CNCs on this shop's largest five-axis machining centers accept vector coordinates as program input instead of traditional G codes, critical jobs can be shifted readily from machine to machine.
An MTConnect-enabled monitoring system gives this shop a clear and simple picture of machine tool usage.
Introduced at IMTS 2008, this communications protocol for CNC machines and other manufacturing equipment is already helping shops and plants implement effective machine monitoring systems. Although these "early adopters" are motivated by the long-term promise of enterprise-wide efficiency gains, their experience with pilot projects shows that benefits derived in the short term are substantial and worthwhile.
Lori Beckman
One of the biggest challenges to tool monitoring on a multitasking machine is coping with simultaneous cutting operations. Caron Engineering (Wells, Maine) designed a system to meet this challenge.
Mark Albert
Smooth Technology is the umbrella term Mazak (Florence, Kentucky) is using to describe its new concept for the programming and control of complex, multi-axis machine tools.
Chris Felix (editor)
Many traditional turning shops are expanding their capabilities to meet other machining requirements. Multitasking machines have helped these shops to naturally transition into smaller lot sizes and highly complex parts.
Edited by Jedd Cole
The Power PMAC machine controller from Delta Tau features a powerful CPU and a 2-GB program buffer for better computational power and trajectory generation.

Mencom has introduced its expandable T35 terminal modules to ease mounting a variety of connectors to DIN rails.

- Title:Alcatraz
- Premiere:January 16th, 2012
- Genre:Action, Drama, History, Mystery, Sci-Fi, Thriller
- Official Site:fox.com/alcatraz
Alcatraz PlotFrom executive producer J.J. Abrams (FRINGE, "Lost," "Star Trek," and the recent blockbuster "Super 8") comes ALCATRAZ, a thrilling new series that follows a unique trio investigating the mystifying reappearance of 302 of Alcatraz's most notorious prisoners and guards, 50 years after they vanished.
When San Francisco Police Department DET. REBECCA MADSEN (Sarah Jones) is assigned to a grisly homicide case, a fingerprint leads her to a seemingly impossible suspect: JACK SYLVANE (guest star Jeffrey Pierce), an Alcatraz inmate who died over 30 years ago. Given her family history – both her grandfather and surrogate uncle, RAY ARCHER (Robert Forster), were guards at the prison – Madsen's interest is immediately piqued. When the enigmatic, knows-everything-but-tells-nothing government agent EMERSON HAUSER (Sam Neill) tries to impede her investigation, she becomes doggedly committed to it.

Added Apr 11, 2011

Here they are, my very first attempt at making jeans. I started these by taking one of my favorite pairs, trying to measure them and draw a pattern based on the measurements. As I went along, I made some more changes and added different details such as different pocket on the back and my signature groin-buckle :)
I have really learned a lot from this project, the pockets and closure are so much better than the first pants I made (this is my second pair of pants ever) and I'm sure that next one I'll make will be better again. But the truth is, they ain't bad at all, and are already my favorite jeans. On top of that, other people like them too :)
You can get more info and detailed pictures at my blog: sartorialdiy.com
Apr 11, 2011, 10.38 PMby tanitisis
Those are great! I love your little details—-and your signature fly buckle :)

Thanks Tanit-Isis, thanks a million :)
Apr 11, 2011, 09.21 PMby urbandon
Great looking jeans. Loving the details and the narrow fit. Very cool. Yep, the Schmetz needles are the way to go.

wow these look really professional! and they fit beautifully. i love the belt loops, what a cool and clever detail :)
Apr 11, 2011, 09.07 PMby joost52
Thanks Lila, I am far from professional but it's a really sweet thing to say :)
Apr 11, 2011, 08.43 PMby janene
What an amazing job. So happy to see that signature buckle! And I love the lining pieces inside. Did you use a regular machine and needle? I've not worked with denim before. Is it tricky?
Apr 11, 2011, 08.47 PMby joost52
I used a regular machine and denim needles. Broke 4 of them on a single button hole so yes, it is tricky ;)
However, in the end I bought needles from the 'Schmetz' brand in a shop in another town and those were so much better than the ones I can get in the shop close to where I live.
It's not so easy, but it's super rewarding. People just can't believe that I made them myself. Good thing I sewed in my label. That buckle helps too ;)

Prepaid products such as credit cards and cell phones have become increasingly popular for both cash-strapped adults and parents trying to teach their children financial responsibility. Based on this trend, Horizon Software International LLC has released MealPay (www.mealpay.com), a unique meal payment system that lets parents prepay and manage their child's meal cards via the Web, telephone, or at on-campus kiosks. For schools, this means no longer having to worry about students with lost or stolen lunch money.
The easy-to-use, fee-based system allows parents to create a user name and password that lets them make payments toward their child's meals using a check or credit card. MealPay also enables parents to keep track of their child's balance in real time and provides the option to set low-balance reminders so they know when to add more money to the account. In addition, parents can use MealPay's automatic replenishment system to add a set dollar amount to their child's account whenever necessary.
"It's a win-win [situation] for everybody involved," says Director of MealPay Tina Bennett. "Since we handle everything for the schools, it's easy for them, and parents can rest easy knowing the money they give their child can only go toward eating."
Currently being used in 65 school districts nationwide, MealPay relies on 128-bit SSL encryption -- the same security encryption as typical banking and financial e-commerce Web sites -- for secure transactions.
"From a technical stand-point, we havent had any troubles," says Jeff Peohank, a tech support specialist and parent at Cobb County Public Schools in Georgia. He adds that the only problems experienced by the district since the system has been in place have been human arrors such as parents setting their reminder system at zero and not being notified that their child's card was running low until it was too late.
According to Cynthia Downs, director of nutrition and food services at Cobb County Public Schools, the most significant aspect of the program is that it has considerably cut the number of non-sufficient checks the school district receives, since MealPay notifies the district within two days of receiving a bad chack (instead of the two weeks it took for notification before the system was in place).
MealPay collects all meal payments and transfers those monies to the districts, which means far less work for them. Fees for the MealPay program are charged as a percentage of a district's total bill, and districts set their own guidelines for how the transaction fees associated with the program are paid. While some districtssuch as Cobb County choose to pay the fees themselves at a 4.75 percent rate of their total bill (no transaction fees are charged to users), others charge the parents a flat fee to use the system. And like Cobb County, some districts even have plans to set up the system so that their students will be able to pay for anything at school, using their MealPay cards.
"We plan on trying to use the system for other things on campus, like paying for pictures or annuals," says Downs. "Next year, we're going to change it so that the parents will start paying the fees themselves, which will help free up money for the district for other projects."

As my cake writing is terrible, I use merkins chocolate, and ABC molds. For my daughter's 40th birthday theme: (Fabulous, Fly, Forty) I need to make the letters sliver or grey. So I have used the white chocolate disks and Chef master candy color. the colors I am getting are a light purple, a dark purple, and a color that doesn't have a name yet. Any suggestions on how to get sliver/grey. Thanks.
PS: The frosting on the cake will be a shade of pink, and the purple coloring will go with it; but her party colors are pink and sliver. The cake is due Saturday, so I'm working out the lettering now.

I drafted this pattern myself using Sewaholic's Renfrew top as a sloper. Check my blog for more pics. And check it for a tutorial on how to turn the renfrew into a batwing shirt! The goal was a simple but interesting sweater that would go with lots of things in my wardrobe.
The skirt is self drafted as well, check my tutorial here!

Like the idea with the buttons in the back! That totally inspires me to do something similar. But I guess they can be uncomfortable when leaning back on a chair? ;)
Mar 25, 2012, 07.57 AMby onehundredsocks
I think it depends, I thought they would be too (after making them ofcourse :)). But my backbone sticks out a little bit, and the buttons sort of shift next to it so I actually don't feel them. I'd still be sure not to use bigger buttons though :)

Coating Materials
A National Science Foundation grant is expected to light a fire under research aimed at developing a coating that can repel snow and ice—a performance characteristic that could hold critical safety implications for a variety of surfaces.
University of Illinois at Chicago mechanical and industrial engineering professor Constantine Megaridis has received the $320,000 NSF grant to investigate so-called "icophobic behavior" by select surfaces.
Beyond Water Repellent
While scientists and engineers have developed several products that repel water and, to a lesser degree, snow and ice, considerable room remains for something "new and improved," the university notes.
Megaridis hopes that he and his Micro/Nanoscale Fluid Transport Laboratory team at UIC will find new ways to meet this goal.
Megaridis uses coatings with so-called "tunable" properties such as controlled micro-to-nanoscale texture that display superhydrophobicity (the ability to repel water) or the ability to self-clean.
His recent research to develop coatings that are both superhydrophobic and self-cleaning has yielded promising results, the university reports.
Phobic and Conducting
Now, Megaridis wants to begin research to see if such coatings can be improved, adding the "icephobic" quality and testing surface coatings that both shed water and conduct electricity.
"The main idea is to be able to provide a skin that's both phobic and electrically conducting—the latter meaning you can heat it up," he said.
He explains: "Imagine you have a chunk of ice anchored in a rough, cold surface. Trying to remove it is challenging, because the ice is stuck. But if you add heat locally and melt the contact area between the ice and the surface skin, you create a thin lubricating layer for the ice to slip off."
Turbine, Aviation Applications
Megaridis's lab work will focus on characterizing various surface coatings to better understand how to make these surfaces improve water beading and roll-off. The shape of the water bead and inclination of a surface for water to roll off are two key properties characterizing surface phobicity, or surface energy, which defines the affinity between a solid and liquid.
"Teflon, for example, has very low surface energy. Water won't stick to it," Megaridis said. "Water sticks on metal preventing roll-off. Metals have high surface energy."
His team hopes to learn how to make more durable, ice-repelling coatings for critical and high-value applications, such as energy-generating wind turbine blades.
"When ice deposits on turbine blades, it can rob a big portion of the turbine's output," he said. "Aircraft wing icing is another long-term problem we'd like to work on."
Megaridis says his laboratory has the right tools to study the problem. "We're trying to push science so that products get better in this area," he said. "We want to produce something that has value for the real world."

Topic Outline
Globally, diarrheal disease remains one of the leading causes of childhood mortality and morbidity. Loss of intestinal fluid caused by gastroenteritis may lead to severe hypovolemia, shock, and death, particularly in children younger than five years of age in areas of the world with limited resources. In developed countries, such as the United States, diarrhea caused by gastroenteritis remains a major cause of hospitalizations. (See "Viral gastroenteritis in children: Epidemiology, clinical presentation, and diagnosis", section on 'Epidemiology' and "Approach to the child with acute diarrhea in developing countries".)
Although the total number of deaths globally from diarrheal diseases from gastroenteritis remains high, the overall mortality rate has steadily declined over the last few decades. This decline, especially in developing countries, is largely due to the use of early and appropriate oral rehydration therapy (ORT), improved nutrition and water sanitation measures, and effective vaccination for rotavirus. (See "Approach to the child with acute diarrhea in developing countries", section on 'Prevention' and "Viral gastroenteritis in children: Epidemiology, clinical presentation, and diagnosis", section on 'Epidemiology' and "Viral gastroenteritis in children: Prevention and treatment", section on 'Prevention'.)
The composition of oral rehydration solutions and the clinical application of ORT in patients with diarrhea due to gastroenteritis are discussed in this topic review. The assessment and treatment of hypovolemia, and prevention and treatment of viral gastroenteritis in children are discussed separately. (See "Clinical assessment and diagnosis of hypovolemia (dehydration) in children" and "Treatment of hypovolemia (dehydration) in children" and "Viral gastroenteritis in children: Prevention and treatment".)
The terms volume depletion (hypovolemia) and dehydration often are used interchangeably. However, these terms differentiate physiologic conditions resulting from different types of fluid loss. Much of the clinical literature does not differentiate between the two terms and uses them interchangeably. Thus, we will follow this convention and use the terms hypovolemia, volume depletion, and dehydration interchangeably as referring to all types of fluid deficits. (See "General principles of disorders of water balance (hyponatremia and hypernatremia) and sodium balance (hypovolemia and edema)".)
Although oral rehydration therapy (ORT) was first introduced in 1945, its use declined because of reports of multiple cases of hypernatremia due to the use of oral rehydration solution (ORS) with inappropriately high carbohydrate levels [1]. However, the success of intravenous hydration in decreasing mortality and morbidity in children with diarrhea in developing countries led to renewed efforts in the 1960s to develop an effective ORT that would be less expensive and easier to administer [2,3]. Subsequently, improvements in ORS formulations have led to ORT's successful use in treating hypovolemia caused by gastroenteritis [4-6]. (See 'Efficacy' below.)

CheckConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf.
The structure of Escherichia coli succinate dehydrogenase (SQR), analogous to the mitochondrial respiratory complex II, has been determined, revealing the electron transport pathway from the electron donor, succinate, to the terminal electron acceptor, ubiquinone. It was found that the SQR redox centers are arranged in a manner that aids the prevention of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation at the flavin adenine dinucleotide. This is likely to be the main reason SQR is expressed during aerobic respiration rather than the related enzyme fumarate reductase, which produces high levels of ROS. Furthermore, symptoms of genetic disorders associated with mitochondrial SQR mutations may be a result of ROS formation resulting from impaired electron transport in the enzyme.

If the government can use eminent domain to seize private property for public use could it do the same with drug patents
in order to make necessary drugs affordable?
I don't think the government can seize the the patents on the drugs. Why? Because drugs are intellectual property and the government doesn't have the ability or the inclanation to do such a thing.
Best Answer
Guess one could say that when the FDA has a drug pulled from the market, it is a seize of drug patents.

she hits like 30 winners per match if you count volleys, smash and lobs. She hits super hard and super flat as well.
Goerges just has to work on that backhand. She missed like every return in their last match;)

Based on the US Open, i think Peschke and Gorges makes a good pair, the only problem is the Gorges returns.

Sarasota's Peschke doubles up on tennis career
SARASOTA - When Kveta Peschke first picked up a tennis racket, at the age of 6, the nearest court was at a club just a quick five-minute walk from her home in the eastern part of the Czech Republic.
Today, at the ripe old age of 37, Peschke's trip to a court is even more convenient. All she needs to do is take a few quick steps out the back door of her home in eastern Sarasota County and she can begin another long practice session on her own private hard court.
Success has its perks and Peschke has found her reward, with the help of a tennis racket, as one of the world's top doubles players.
At an age when most professional tennis players are on the sidelines recalling past triumphs, Peschke continues to compete. Not ready to leave the game, she remains excited about the present. And even guardedly confident about the future.
"It's a funny thing when you are playing against girls who are 20 and you are beating them," Peschke said. "It gives you satisfaction, because you are fit and you can do it."
A doubles specialist, Peschke — who appears as fit as she has ever been — has been having lots of laughs beating up on the younger generation with regularity.
Whether it is women's doubles or mixed doubles, Peschke has found her groove late in her career and has discovered a way to remain in the game while collecting money and memories.
Her latest achievement came at the U.S. Open a little more than a week ago when she teamed with Marcin Matkowski to reach the final of the mixed doubles event. The run to the final in this year's final Grand Slam tournament comes a little more than one year after she won her first Grand Slam title, teaming with Katarina Srebotnik to win women's doubles at Wimbledon. That triumph resulted in Peschke becoming the oldest woman to be ranked No. 1 in the world.
Though a Grand Slam title came late in her career, her success in doubles began quickly after Peschke made the conscious decision to concentrate on that part of the sport in 2007 — at the age of 32.
"We thought, I always played well in doubles and maybe this was a way we can still enjoy being a part of the sport," Peschke said about the decision she made with her husband. Tortsten. "We thought we would give it a chance for a while and see how it went."
Five years later it is still going. And going splendidly.
Peschke has earned nearly $4 million in a career that that has included 23 WTA doubles titles and eight more ITF wins. In addition to winning Wimbledon with Srebotnik the two combined to reach the doubles final at the French Open in 2010.
But maybe more impressive is that Peschke has reached the final in three U.S. Open tournaments — with three different partners.
In 2006 it was Martin Damm, who now lives in Bradenton. In 2010 she got there with Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi. And this month she reached the final with Matowski.
Three different years, three different partners. The only constant was Peschke.
At this year's U.S. Open, Peschke and Matowski held a pair of match points in the super tiebreaker before falling 6-7 (10-8), 6-1, 12-10 to Ekaterinia Makarova and Bruno Soares in the championship match.
"The super tiebreaker is always a little tricky," Peschke said. "It can go either way. We had two match points and couldn't make them.
"Sometimes match point can be the hardest to win. That hurt a lot."
That pain pales in comparison to the pair of knee surgeries she underwent early in her career and the abdominal injury she suffered in 2009. Injuries, along with the success she had when she did play doubles, played a part in the decision to concentrate on doubles.
"We just felt it would be a good idea to go in that direction," Peschke said. "We thought maybe doubles would not be as hard on the body, that maybe the body needed a break,"
And here it is 2012 and Peschke is near the top of her game.
Peschke picked Matowski just two weeks before the U.S. Open after Mike Bryan — who she had been playing with her in a couple of events — chose to stick with Lisa Raymond, who he won Wimbledon with earlier in the summer.
Changing partners is part of the process for many players and Peschke has chosen a new partner in women's doubles for next year. She will be teaming with Anna-Lena Groenefeld, who has won 11 doubles titles and has been ranked as high as No. 14 in singles in 2006. Groenefeld spent time in Sarasota this past week working with Peschke on their doubles strategy.
"We will see how it goes," Peschke said. "It seems very positive. We want to make some more titles."
Peschke has always had a penchant for doubles, even when she was concentrating on singles — where she reached a career-high ranking of No. 26 in 2005. By 2007, already in her 30s, she had played her last singles match on the WTA tour and was convinced her future was in doubles.
"I think my volleys are the best part of my game," she explains about her strengths in doubles. "And I have a strong return game."
What's more, she has what her husband Torstenclaims are the best hands on the women's tour as far as reflexes.
"When she is playing mixed, she is not scared," Torsten Peschke says. "A lot of the girls are scared because the man is so powerful. Kveta will not turn away."
"I love winning points against the men," Kveta admits.
Kveta Peschke chooses a tournament at Indian Wells in California and an event in Stuttgart, Germany as her favorite events on the tour. And While her win at Wimbledon remains the highlight of her career, perhaps Peschke's favorite match was a loss in the 2006 U.S. Open.
Peschke lists Martina Navratilova, who was born in Czechoslovakia, as her favorite player. In a touch of irony, Peschke played against her tennis idol in Navratilova's last match as a professional. Navratilova and Bob Bryan beat Peschke and Damm to win the U.S. Open mixed doubles crown. It was Navratilova's final Grand Slam title and came just a month before she turned 50.
"What she did was so impressive," Peschke said.
So does that mean Peschke might be still kicking around professional tennis at the age of 50?
"Fifty? I don't think so," Peschke says. "I will probably not be a second Martina.
We would like to focus on next year, and then we will see. You never like to say there is an end and players have a tough time calling it."
Though the traveling gets tougher as the years add up, at least Peschke doesn't have to go far to locate a practice court.

AUSTIN, Texas -- The Texas Rangers, the top cops in the Lone Star State, are getting to the bottom of a new case: Who s behind a series of tweets lampooning a local city council.
The parody Twitter accounts target council members in Huntsville, home to the nation s busiest execution chamber. One of the confessed tweeters says it s political parody. But a local prosecutor thinks the accounts could be criminal and asked the Rangers to investigate.
That s absurd to some constitutional experts, who say the tweets are a cut-and-dry case of First Amendment protections. The investigation is ongoing.
Few badges pack more lore than those of the Texas Rangers. Tom Vinger, a spokesman for the Texas Rangers, says that the Rangers have invested only a matter of hours so far.

Cloud CRM company Salesforce.com has announced a large expansion and "permanent home" in the UK, revealing it is opening a UK data centre, as well as rebranding its City of London-based headquarters at Heron Tower as "Salesforce Tower London".
Making the announcement at the firm's Salesforce 1 World Tour conference in London today was Salesforce COO George Hu. He said that the company was proud to be opening the UK's first skyscraper named entirely after a company brand. The UK data centre is due to open later this year, with other data centres to follow in France and Germany in 2015.
Salesforce EMEA president Miguel Milano called the UK "fundamental to [Salesforce's] global strategy", ading that next year will see Salesforce "build on its positive impact in the UK with Salesforce customers, partners and application developers".
Typically for a Salesforce keynote, a parade of customers were asked to join the stage, including the UK Alzheimer's Society and the Big Issue.
The keynote proceeded to function as another opportunity to market the Salesforce1 mobile app, which was originally announced at 2013's Dreamforce conference in San Francisco, and serves as a way to tie together the company's various products and APIs through a smartphone-based wrapper.
Successful leaders are infusing analytics throughout their organisations to drive smarter decisions, enable faster actions and optimise outcomes
Focus on cost efficiency, simplicity, performance, scalability and future-readiness when architecting your data protection strategy
