Wanaka's Braden Currie has impressed on debut on the Europe Xterra scene finishing a close second to the 2013 world champion in the Switzerland race on Saturday.
After making a last minute decision to race earlier this week, Currie was unsure what to expect and was rapt to find himself not only competitive in his series debut but only 20 seconds behind Spain's Reuben Ruzafa in the Vallee de Joux-based off-road triathlon.
"I was stoked with the first race, especially to finish so close to double world Xterra champ Reuben."
Currie's month-long training at altitude in France's Font Romeu paid off as he was second out of the 1.5km swim, 30secs ahead of the third-placed athlete.
Setting off at a hot pace on the 40km mountain bike he took some time out of his rivals Ruzafa and British world number two Asa Shaw.
"I held them off for the whole first lap then Reuben shot past me going into a technical downhill section but I managed to get him back on the inside, which I don't think he was expecting," Currie said.
Ruzafa, Shaw and Currie all left the transition to the 10km off-road run together and Currie turned on his trademark speed, hoping to leave his rivals behind.
"Asa dropped off but Reuben caught me at the end of the first lap and we ran together until the last kilometre when he just took off and I couldn't stay with him on the climb," Currie said.
"I was pretty happy with the transition out of altitude, especially as we arrived in Switzerland the day before the race. At altitude you feel unfit as your body is battling to take on oxygen so when you race at a lower level, everything seems easier."
Currie will travel to Xonrupt, in north-east France for the Xterra France race next weekend, on July 6, where he will be doing his best to finish one step higher up the podium.

Title: History of the Texas Bluebonnet
Answered by: Barbara Medford
Hi, I'm working on an article for a newspaper and wondered if you could point me in the right direction to find out the history of the bluebonnet. When did it become the state flower? Is it really illegal to pick them? Were there other state flowers before the bluebonnet (like maybe a yellow rose)? Thanks for any help or guidance you can offer!ANSWER:
The first thing you need to know is that there is not one state flower of Texas, there are six. They are all of the genus Lupinus and they are all called Bluebonnets, so that's a trick question for party conversation. The six are Lupinus havardii (Big Bend bluebonnet), Lupinus perennis (sundial lupine), Lupinus plattensis (Nebraska lupine), Lupinus subcarnosus (Texas bluebonnet), Lupinus texensis (Texas bluebonnet), and Lupinus concinnus (bajada lupine).
To get more concise dates, go to this website on Texas State Flower. When, in 1901, the Texas Legislature decided the state really needed to have a state flower, the cotton boll and the cactus were two that were hot contenders. The Chapter of the Colonial Dames in Texas suggested that the bluebonnet would be the most appropriate, and their opinion prevailed. The bill approving Lupinus subcarnosus (Texas bluebonnet) as the state flower was signed on March 7, 1901 by Gov. Joseph D. Sayers. The debate then went on for 70 years, as there were a number of other species of bluebonnet native to the State of Texas. On March 8, 1971, the Legislature amended the 1901 statue to include Lupinus texensis (Texas bluebonnet) "and any other variety of bluebonnet not heretofore recorded." Essentially, all bluebonnets found in Texas are now considered the official flower of the state; at this point in time, that consists of the 6 listed above.
As to the legality of picking bluebonnets, we went straight to the source, as it were, and found this website of the Texas Department of Public Safety from which we learned: There is no law prohibiting the picking of bluebonnets. There are laws of criminal trespass; so make sure you're not on private property. There also are laws against damaging or destroying rights-of-way, so pick a few flowers, but don't dig up clumps of them or drive your vehicle into the midst of them. And be aware of your own safety-don't walk out into the roadway to position your camera, pull your car off of the improved roadway, and don't walk across lanes of traffic to get to the flowers. Oh, and one other thing. Are you aware that snakes and fire ants love bluebonnets, too?
And, finally, the yellow rose. The yellow rose of Texas is a traditional folk song of the Southern United States. One author dates the song to 1927, considerably after the selection of the Texas state flower. Moreover, the native wild roses were all pink or white. In the 18th Century, wild yellow roses were discovered growing in the Middle East. The yellow roses of today are the product of extensive hybridizing and all come from non-native to North America origins.

Illinois receives $20 million in landmark settlement with Abbott Labs for off-label marketing of Depakote
Online Staff Report
CHICAGO — Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan (D) joined her federal counterparts, 44 other states and the District of Columbia in announcing two national settlements with Abbott Laboratories, totaling $1.6 billion, over allegations of illegal off-label marketing of its Depakote drug. Madigan said Illinois will receive $20 million under the agreements.
In the first settlement, Madigan and the states alleged in a civil complaint that Abbott engaged in deceptive practices to market Depakote, which is FDA-approved for treating seizure disorders, mania associated with bipolar disorder and prophylaxis of migraines. But Madigan alleged the company deliberately opted to bypass the regulatory approval process and instead promoted off-label uses, including as treatments for schizophrenia, dementia and autism, when medical studies failed to adequately prove the drug to be effective for these conditions.
Off-label drug use occurs when a drug is used for certain treatments and conditions that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved.
In a separate agreement with federal authorities, Madigan and the states alleged the company's off-label marketing resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars in false claims to Medicaid, Medicare and other federal health care programs. Madigan said Abbott improperly marketed Depakote for off-label uses in nursing homes and illegally paid health care professionals and long-term care pharmacy providers to promote or prescribe the drug.
"Abbott made a deliberate decision to circumvent the regulatory approval process, opting instead to deceptively market Depakote for treating seniors with dementia and mental health patients despite a lack of convincing medical evidence for such uses," Madigan said.
In the civil complaint filed May 7 along with the settlement, Madigan and the states detail how Abbott allegedly conducted off-label promotions through a variety of deceptive practices. The company distributed studies that showed Depakote could be used to treat off-label conditions and instructed its sales representatives to draw attention to the studies. In one such study, Abbott sought to determine Depakote's effectiveness to treat schizophrenia. The final results showed the drug was mostly ineffective for treating schizophrenia, but the company allegedly delayed releasing the negative results while it continued to promote Depakote for treating the mental condition.
As a part of the civil settlement, Abbott has agreed to significantly change how it markets Depakote and cease promoting off-label uses, in addition to a $100 million payment. Additionally, under the settlement, Abbott is prohibited from making false or misleading claims about Depakote, and the company is required to ensure financial incentives for sales of the drug to not promote off-label uses. Abbott also must restrict other specific practices it used to promote off-label uses of the drug.
The second settlement with the states and federal government resolves false claims to Medicaid, Medicare and other federal health care programs. As a condition to that agreement, Abbott pled guilty May 7 to a violation of the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. As part of this settlement, Abbott has agreed to pay a criminal fine and forfeiture of $700 million.
Joining Madigan in the announcement were attorneys general in Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

hi, i really cant get to the bottom of this, but what fuel do i put in my S3?? ive heard it could be the actuator
Hi mate, first of all is it a genuine s3, or is it a different engined a3 that you have stuck the bumpers and badges on?
its a genuine 5 door S3 with the AGU engine. i first tried bp ultimate diesel, but it didnt seem to like that. so i then heard about these nos fuel additives that double the horse power, so i put about 5 of them in. it DEFFO went alot faster, but it didnt last long
I've used them before as well, I think i read somewhere that you can use them instead of petrol for maximum BHPs. The problem with your fuelling is that you are using BP diesel, when you should be using V-power diesel, as that gives you more BHP and V power points.
V Power? DOes the V stand for virtual, as in virtualy no difference in power? May be thats the issue, its all virtual? Is there a P(Placebo) Power as well?
yeh that makes sense! il try that tomorow! im just waiting for delivery of my new actuator does anybody else have any concerning problems, ive been a mechanic for a week now and can pretty much solve anything
I've removed my rear springs to get that slammed look but the car feels very strange when going round bends now. Any ideas?
You want to take that back to wherever you bought it, either that or try and fit a 206 s3 front end on it...
If you take the wheels off and put the car on bricks with the slammed look, it will give the impression of it floating...
Yeah common issue, you need to uprate your rear anti roll bar, i've got a special 8mm bamboo cane and springs out of a BIC pen
I read that having a smaller steering wheel will help you turn quicker and sharper. I was unable to get a steering wheel as small as I wanted so I used a set of mole grips. The trouble now is that I find it very hard to do a full roation. can you offer any help or advice?
those 206 front ends look good dont they! i did an oil change the other day actually. i had loads of oil left from changing it on my 2 stroke crosser, so used the rest of that.
scott - i also tried the molegrip mod, but found donuts really hard. so i switched to using a really big jubilee clamp, its just like a small sporty steering wheel, plus, i can now do most of the stuff ken block can do
Hello buddy, I think you are in the wrong section, as judging by how 'stripped out' your car is, that looks like it's a track car. Bet it weighs nothing! Anyway, have you thought about supergluing a £1 coin to the end, almost like a miniature steering wheel. Actually, use a penny as it'll save weight.
Are you trying to achieve 300bhp with the back seats still in the upright position? If you lie them flat the K07 will easily blow over 308.976whp.
i really dont think its the rods. my tuner told me that if i get a fmic il have to change them because of the power increase, so ive stalled that mod for a while. but its been running 500ftlbs of torque for a few months now with no issues, i also have a friend with an S3 that uses standard rods and he has around 500hp from his ko3 hybrid, based on his airflow of 200 and the 0.4 rule of course
you would pay full gold for a car with a weird engine and a 8mm antiroll bar made of bamboo with BIC pen springs, a 1p steering wheel to save waight and no springs? . . . . . . if so i have one for sale
If you're looking for speed, you need to carbon wrap various internal components. The wrap will reduce weight by a good 100kg. That corroborated with 173psi in the front tyres will see you over 200mph no worries!
I always thought the irony of carbon wrapping is that it actually adds weight to the car - obviously I was wrong!

ABP Dutch pension fund. (photo credit:Courtesy)
Dutch pension fund ABP, one of the largest pension funds in the world, announced on Wednesday that after looking into the matter it sees no reason to end its relationship with three Israeli banks.The fund's announcement runs firmly against the grain of the increasing public perception that Israel is on the verge of wholesale boycotts by European financial institutions.In January, another Dutch pension firm, PGGM, announced it was divesting from five Israeli banks, because of "their involvement in financing Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories."ABP posted an announcement on its website on Wednesday saying that publicity about boycotts of Israeli banks has led the fund to explain why it does not exclude Israeli banks from its investments.The fund said that its environmental, social and corporate governance policy – a catchall phrase for what is known as socially responsible investing – is based on two objective criteria: international law and the principles laid down in the UN Global Compact.The compact is a policy initiative for businesses that want to align their operations with 10 universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption.The fund said its directorate discusses these matters each year and it has concluded that the Israeli banks – Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi and Mizrahi- Tefahot – "do not act contrary to international law and regulations," and that there are no court rulings indicating a need to end investments in them.Danske Bank, the largest in Denmark, recently said on its website that it is boycotting Bank Hapoalim for "legal and ethical" reasons. The Stockholm- headquartered Nordea Bank, the largest in Scandinavia, has asked for clarifications from Bank Leumi and Mizrahi- Tefahot regarding their activities beyond the Green Line.It was later reported that Danske Bank featured unflatteringly in a State Department cable from May 12, 2009 – released by WikiLeaks – which said that the bank had a "correspondent account" with Tanchon, a North Korean trading company that has been involved in financing a ballistic missile sale to an Iranian group.ABP is a pension fund for some 2.8 million government, public and education workers, with invested capital last year of some €292 billion.Meanwhile, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Wednesday again slammed countries for applying a double standard to the country, saying Israel is "a light unto the nations, but only for those in the international community who want to see the light, because there is a lot of hypocrisy."Netanyahu, speaking at a ceremony recognizing fighters against human trafficking, said that Israel battles for human rights and does everything to preserve human dignity amid a "struggle against us with endless cruelty."Israel is characterized as a war criminal and serial violator of human rights, while "around us the most horrible things are taking place," he said."This hypocrisy harms efforts to eradicate the evil and promote the good. But we will not be deterred, we will continue our efforts to be a light among the nations, if only they want to see the light," the prime minister said.

I have a RIR who just started to lay eggs. She is 5 months old right now. Sunday morning I found her first eggs in the coop. One was small but nicely formed. The other did not have a complete shell and the shell was very very thin and flexible. I did not think anything of it at the time figuring since these were her first eggs they may not be perfect. Well now it has been over 4 days and she has not produced another egg yet. Is this normal? Do I just need to be patient? I am new to chicken raising but I thought RIR produced a large number of eggs, almost 1 a day.

It's normal for some young pullets not lay regularly for a few weeks. Just getting their pipework in good working order. When my pullets first lay ing I switch them to the layer feeds and offer oyster shell out in a dish 24/7.

They free-range and have access to layer feed. My other RIR (well not a purebred I found out) and Americana are laying just fine. I have been taking the shells from the eggs we eat and drying them out really well (usually after I bake something in the oven I just throw them in there while the oven cools off) and then crushing them up fine and mixing them in their food. I will give it some more time. Just wanted to make sure she is ok.

Smiling, I thought my buff orp. had quit too. But 5 days later I find a covered nest with 4 eggs in it. She had covered the eggs with wood chips. It did not look different from the area around it no nest. Little smart aleck. I put a basket over the spot and the next day she layed in the reg. nest. It is not unusual though for first time egg layers to have problems. Watch her, it is the most dangerous time for a hen. Things can get stuck or just not work right. Jean

Even with the layer feed and egg shells I would still put out some oyster shell free choice just to be on the safe side. The thin eggshell is definately an indicator that your bird isn't getting enough calcium and the oyster shell will help. I just put it in a little bowl in one corner of their pen and fill it as needed (they really don't eat a lot of it) If I remember right the last I bought was around ten dollars for a fifty pound bag from Southern States and it has lasted for 2 years . A lack of calcium can really cause problems with chickens so better safe than sorry. Good luck!
Finally she laid another egg this morning. Appears that she laid it from her roost. This one too had an extremely thin shell and was broken when I found it.
I went yesterday and bought the oyster shell and I put a bowl of it out for them this morning. I hope she is ok. My other 2 hens are laying just fine and they are on the same diet as this one.
Just a little worried, at least she laid an egg so I guess she is not egg bound.

I've got a barred rock who started laying at 6 months on 12/28. She laid normally for 2 weeks, then laid 2 thin-shelled eggs in mid-January. Then nothing.
Finally something...! She just started laying again around March 1. She has been laying 51-55g eggs ever since.
I will note that during the no-egg period she developed coccidiosis and got quite skinny. We treated her for that and she put on some weight before she started to lay again.
One of the toughest parts about being a chicken owner is being patient! I was getting really fed up with her, and she's the heartiest eater of the flock.

I have two 1-yr old Rhode Island Red hens, they both started laying right when expected, around 5 months old. I have since added a Barred Rock and Americauna, both hatched 3/1/13. Today is 8/19/13, they're both 22 weeks old. My Americana has not started laying eggs yet. I hear they start later than some breeds? My Barred Rock started laying eggs in July, when she was around 18 weeks old. She laid 4 small eggs in 4 days, skipped a few days, then a bigger egg, skipped a few days, then laid 3 eggs in 3 days while she was roosting on the top of their smaller coop's pitched roof, so the 3 eggs rolled down and broke. They have a nice nesting box inside this same coop, and a nest inside the large walk-in shed, and she knows where they both are because she's laid in both spots. After the 3 broken eggs (so she's laid maybe 8 eggs total), she skipped more days, then she laid an egg with no shell, just the rubbery outer membrane, then no more eggs after that. She hasn't laid an egg in at least 2 weeks, maybe 3! Is that normal? They get good food - poultry lay mash and grains with appropriate protein, oyster shell calcium supplements, fresh water, greens, tomatoes as a snack, figs as a snack from my tree. And they don't seem stressed, they roam the yard happily all day. I'm not sure why she stopped laying. Except perhaps that maybe she's not quite full grown? They're both 22 weeks.

We've all read those "fashion must haves" posts where some expert tells you what every woman should own. I've even had people ask me this very question for their own stories. But why should I be telling you what your closet needs? Is it a universal thing? Does every woman need to own an LBD and a leather jacket? Let's find out.
The New Skinny
Are you sick of taking an extra five minutes just to wiggle into your jeans? Do you find yourself not being able to breathe after taking only a few bites of your dinner when you wear such jeans? Great news, friends! Skinny jeans are out, and there's a new skinny in town…
The Best Monday Of The Year
Each time I check any form of social media on a Monday, it seems like everyone I follow is having the worst day ever. There's something about starting off the week again that we all seem to share a hatred for, and take our hatred to Facebook and Instagram. But there's one Monday of the year where you can feel optimistic…BECAUSE PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE IS ON SALE TODAY.
Let's Get Bundled
The one thing us Chicagoans all seem to want is a warm winter coat, but one that's actually stylish…and doesn't make us look like a marshmallow. It's something I struggled with in the past but either designers have really stepped up their game in the outerwear department or I've gotten really good at finding stylish winter coats (perhaps a little bit of both?) This is a secret I simply cannot keep to myself. So if you're freezing your ass off right now, this should be able to help.
Oh My, It's Black Tie!
Although I go to several events a week, it's very rare when the dress code calls for cocktail, or even worse…black tie. For these reasons, I have very few "fancy" dresses in my closet, but the same three or four are always on call when it comes to these special occasions. After having two of these events last week (and Harper's Bazaar practically reading my mind), this seemed like the perfect opportunity to get a little fancy and share some key tips to black tie dressing.

For team chairman Clay Bennett, one game during the Thunder's inaugural season — a New Year's Eve win over Golden State — will always have special relevance.
"I remember thinking, 'We've turned the corner,' from being a purely raw, start-up organization to more of an organization that had found its footing and was beginning to understand our relationship with the community," Bennett said. "That's also when the basketball team began to develop its own identity."
The Thunder sold out nearly half its home games. Combined with solid attendance during the Hornets' two seasons in the Ford Center, the Oklahoma City market showed it can support an NBA franchise.
One reason the New Year's Eve win was significant is that's the night fans seemed to accept the Thunder was their team, not an adopted team that was transplanted because of Hurricane Katrina.
As the organization heads into its second season, the next step is having fans emotionally invest in all 82 games.
"When the Hornets were here it was clearly a home phenomenon," said OKC mayor Mick Cornett. "You didn't sense the community was following them on the road. With the Thunder there was a little bit of that.
"Early in the season if you went into a restaurant, it wasn't a given a road game would be on TV. But at the end of the year you started seeing it a little more. That's a growth area, especially if the franchise gets to a point it's competing for a playoff spot."

Polls Show Growing Public Support For Gay Marriage
Associated Press
Originally printed 5/23/2014 (Issue 2221 - Between The Lines News)
(AP) - Over the last decade, public opinion on whether gay couples should be allowed to marry legally has reversed, with more now in favor of legal same-sex marriage than opposed to it. The latest Associated Press-GfK poll shows that the share of Americans who favor legal gay marriage in their state outweighs that opposed -- 46 percent to 39 percent. Only 1 in 7 say they're neutral on the question, and strong supporters outnumber strong opponents, 35 percent to 28 percent.
Fast Printz
Other findings of the poll:
-- Republicans are sharply divided by ideology on whether gay marriages ought to be legal, with three-quarters of conservative Republicans opposed to gay marriage in the AP-GfK poll, while those Republicans who identify as moderate or liberal are almost evenly split, 43 percent opposed and 42 percent in support.
-- Support for gay marriage by region tends to mirror laws, with those in the Northeast and West where more states allow legal marriages for gay couples more apt to support it than those in the South or Midwest. Majorities support legal gay marriage in the Northeast and West (56 percent in each region), compared with 44 percent in the Midwest and 36 percent in the South.
-- Younger Americans are more supportive than older ones, with about half of those under age 50 in favor of legal gay marriage in their state compared with just 33 percent of seniors. That trend holds across party lines, with Republicans under age 30 nearly three times as likely to support legal gay marriage as Republicans age 65 and older. Among Democrats, 78 percent under age 50 support legal gay marriage compared with 55 percent age 65 or older.
The AP-GfK Poll was conducted May 16-19, 2014 using KnowledgePanel, GfK's probability-based online panel designed to be representative of the U.S. population. It involved online interviews with 1,354 adults, and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.0 percentage points for all respondents.
Respondents were first selected randomly using phone or mail survey methods, and were later interviewed online. People selected for KnowledgePanel who didn't otherwise have access to the Internet were provided with the ability to access the Internet at no cost to them.
