FirstEnergy Stadium, Cleveland, OH
CLEVELAND -- A meaningless exhibition win for the Browns turned troubling, and then deeply serious.
From good to bad to worse.
Rookie linebacker Barkevious Mingo sustained a bruised lung, running back Dion Lewis broke his left leg and the Browns came away battered in a 24-6 victory over the Detroit Lions on Thursday night.
Mingo, the No. 6 overall pick in April's NFL draft, will be hospitalized in the Cleveland Clinic overnight with his injury. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski did not know how Mingo got hurt and didn't provide any other details of the young linebacker's condition.
A team spokesman said Mingo was taken to the Clinic's main campus before the game ended.
Mingo left in the first half with what the team initially reported as a rib injury. However, Chudzinski reported the bruised lung following the game and said Lewis, the team's valuable backup to starter Trent Richardson, had fractured his fibula.
"They're unfortunate," quarterback Brandon Weeden said of the injuries. "It's a preseason game, guys are flying around, a lot of adrenaline and all that stuff. We just got to get those guys back as soon as we can and the guys that are right behind them have to step up."
The Browns also lost starting right guard Jason Pinkston (sprained ankle), tight end Gary Barnidge (sprained shoulder) and rookie kicker Brandon Bogotay (groin). Pinkston left FirstEnergy Stadium wearing a walking boot and on crutches.
Lewis' injury could be especially costly for the Browns, who will be without running back Montario Hardesty for at least a month following knee surgery.
The injuries cast a pall over another solid performance by Weeden and both Cleveland's offense and defense.
"It was a tough night from an injury perspective," Chudzinski said. "But we made some strides from a performance standpoint. That's the game, guys get injured and other guys get opportunities and have to step up -- and that's what good teams are able to do. And that's what we'll have to do."
Weeden threw two touchdown passes to Jordan Cameron and perhaps ended any more discussion about a quarterback competition in Cleveland. He connected on TD passes of 10 and 5 yards to Cameron in the first half as the Browns (2-0) opened a 17-0 lead.
Weeden finished 8 of 12 for 117 yards. In two weeks, he's 18 of 25 for 229 yards and three TDs.
On Tuesday, Chudzinski would not commit to a starter for Week 1, saying the competition between Weeden and backup Jason Campbell was "still close."
If it was, it's not anymore.
"Competition sells newspapers, I understand that," Weeden said. "Really all I can control is going out and playing well. Try to play mistake-free football, do the things that I can control and that's being accurate, managing this offense. And for the most part, I think I've done that through the first two games."
Richardson made his NFL exhibition debut and gained 33 yards on six carries, showing some elusiveness and power.
Matthew Stafford completed 11 of 16 for 74 yards for the Lions (1-1), but was without superstar wide receiver Calvin Johnson, who sat out with a bruised knee.
Detroit rookie kicker Havard Rugland, the Norwegian YouTube sensation, made a 33-yard field goal in the third quarter. He has converted all three tries during the preseason.
Weeden led the Browns on three scoring drives in the first half before turning things in the second quarter to Campbell, who went 12 of 14 for 106 yards and one TD.
Richardson missed all four preseason games as a rookie last year, when he was coming off knee surgery. The Browns sat their young star last week as a precaution because of a shin injury, but Chudzinski gave Richardson clearance to play and he made the most of his two series.
Richardson broke two tackles, made a spin move and got loose on a 17-yard run in the first quarter.
"It was good to get him out here," Chudzinski said. "He took a couple hits and delivered a couple as well."
While Cleveland's offense hummed, Detroit's sputtered -- again.
The Lions' starters didn't cross the 50 until midway through the second quarter and settled for a 48-yard field goal by David Akers.
Detroit's first-team offense hasn't scored a TD in the preseason.
"We didn't have Calvin, but that's no excuse," Stafford said. "We can't use that as a crutch. We didn't take too many shots downfield. We didn't stay on the field long enough to get a chance to."
Without Johnson, Stafford didn't have his primary target and Lions coach Jim Schwartz kept the play calling conservative, perhaps not to reveal much to the Browns, who will host the Lions on Oct. 13.
Reggie Bush showed signs of being the breakaway threat Detroit has coveted since Barry Sanders retired. The Lions signed him to a four-year, $16 million deal in March. He rushed for 15 yards on eight carries and caught five passes for 44.
Detroit was called for three personal fouls in the first half, including a roughing-the-passer call on surly defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh on Cleveland's first TD drive.
Schwartz couldn't find anything to be happy with.
"There's plenty to go around, that's for sure. We played poorly in all three phases," said Schwartz, who was most displeased with the penalties. "That's another thing we've got to do a better job at. It doesn't matter what happens out there. It gets called. We pay the price for it. Last week we did a better job of controlling our emotions."
Game notes
Johnson didn't practice Tuesday and his injury is not believed to be serious. Last season, he led the league with 122 catches and set the NFL single-season receiving record with 1,964 yards. ... Browns RB Brandon Jackson had a 14-yard TD catch in the fourth. ... Lions RB Joique Bell twice shoved down a streaker who ran onto the field in the third quarter. Undaunted, the nearly naked man ran the length of the field before he was tackled near the end zone by security. "My technique was awesome," Bell joked. "I didn't really tackle him. I had a couple of knockdowns that might get me some more points in the special teams room."

New carbon emission scheme for cars to start on Jan 1
The new Carbon Emissions-based Vehicle Scheme (CEVS) will apply to all new cars, taxis and newly-imported used cars registered from Jan 1 next year, said the Land Transport Authority in a statement on Friday.
Car buyers are advised to look out for the mandatory Fuel Economy Labelling Scheme (FELS) labels with LTA's logo at car showrooms. The label is required to be affixed on cars that have been LTA-approved and provides the carbon emissions and fuel efficiency performance of the car model.
Only cars that are approved by LTA under FELS can be registered for use from Jan 1 and low emission models will qualify for CEVS rebates.
Under the new scheme, registered cars with low carbon emissions of less than or equal to 160g carbon emissions per kilometre (CO2/km) will qualify for rebates of between $5,000 and $20,000. This will be given as an offset against the vehicle's Additional Registration Fee.

BATON ROUGE - Football isn't the only rivalry playing out this week between LSU and Alabama.
The tigers and tide swim teams squared off today at the LSU Natatorium.
The meet also brought out plenty of LSU and 'Bama fans who said the competition in the pool is just as intense as the one on the football field.
"The rivalry's been so big... I feel like the hype in this meet with continue on into the football game," said LSU fan Gloria Johnson.
"They enjoy it every year," said Tami Buch, who was rooting for Alabama. "And this year especially being one and two, I think there's even more excitement surrounding it."
In last year's meet the Lady Tigers defeated the Crimson Tide 198-101 in Tuscaloosa, the men's team lost to 'Bama 161 to 139.

Engineer's Children's Book Wins National Recognition
"Engineering Elephants" is geared for children ages 4 to 8.
Written by Leslie Cranford
Pantoya reads "Engineering Elephants" to children in Texas Tech's Child Development Research Center.
A children's non-fiction book coauthored by a Texas Tech engineering professor is recognized as a "Best Books 2010″ Award finalist by USABookNews.com, the premiere online magazine and review website for mainstream and independent publishing houses.
"Engineering Elephants," coauthored by Michelle Pantoya, a professor of mechanical engineering at Texas Tech, and Emily Hunt, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at West Texas A&M University, seeks to educate very young children about who engineers are and what they do.
Learn more about Michelle Pantoya.
"Children know doctors and teachers and police and firemen and soldiers, but not engineers," Pantoya said. "This is a way of introducing young children to engineering. Our goal is to inspire some of these young people to think about an engineer as something they want to be when they grow up."
Between them, Pantoya and Hunt have seven children ages seven and under. The women discovered that there is a lack of children's books on engineering geared toward young children ages 4 to 8 and began work on the book about two years ago.
Jeffrey Keen, president and CEO of USABookNews.com, said this year's contest yielded an unprecedented number of entries, which were then narrowed down to more than 500 winners and finalists in more than 140 categories covering print and audio books. Awards were presented for titles published in 2010 and late 2009.
A complete list of the winners and finalists of the USABookNews.com National "Best Books 2010″ Awards are available online.
The book is available online authorhouse.com and at amazon.com .

Shreveport LA (KMSS) - — The Northwest Louisiana Volunteers of America chapter is implementing a new free program for teenagers that focus on life skills, healthy behaviors, and community service.
The organization is implementing The Wyman's Teen Outreach Program®, an evidence-based, youth development program.
According to a study, kids who participated in the program were at lower risk for suspension,class failure and teen pregnancy.
"We feel like those are important measures of success for our children and one of the things that attracted us about the program is that it is evidence based, they have statistics to support the fact that they reduce teen pregnancy, reduce suspension and its helps the children improve in school," said Chris Gabriel who is over the program.

Appliqué, Cutting, Embellishing, Fabric, Fall, Felt, Foam, Glass, Hand Stitching, How-To-Projects, Lisa Storms, Thread,
This year I came up with a monster costume for my son. I had lots of other costume ideas, but when I went shopping for a sweat suit found it difficult to find specific colors. This makes a monster a great costume option since monsters can be any color! And they are versatile for both boys and girls. And just plain cute. (Or scary if you wish.)
I, obviously, went for cute! I asked my son what kind of monster he wanted to be. One request was to have a bunch of tentacles like an octopus. To save on time, I compromised and added 'suction cups' under the arms to mimic tentacles.
These are very easy to make. Trace the smallest circle from the Circles shape template multiple times onto white craft foam. Tip: Use a Sharpie marker so you don't need to worry about smudging. Simply cut right inside traced line. Punch the center of each circle with a 1/4 inch circle hand punch and adhere to sweat shirt arms using a glue gun. This technique would of course work well for an octopus costume as well.
There are not any rules when it comes to monsters as they are full of imagination, so just have fun! I grabbed my Circles shape template again and went crazy tracing and cutting out felt circles (I use Razor-edge Softgrip Scissors which cut through felt like butter) to add fun and texture. I have found that my Circles shape template is one of my top go-to tools in my crafting collection. Even when Iím not using it paired with the Ultra ShapeXpress to cut out cardstock and paper, it is a great tool for tracing assorted circles. I love that it is sturdy and versatile with many circle sizes all in one place. A must-have in my opinion!
I used a rather unexpected material for the horns. Kitchen sponges! I wanted something that could stand on its own without adding much weight and came in fun colors. I've been using sponges a lot in crafting lately.
To create a simple horn template, cut out a large oval using the Ultra ShapeXpress and Ovals shape template from cardstock. Move the oval over a little and cut an oval shape from one side and snip off a straight edge as shown. Trace onto a sponge and cut out. I used thick, soft sponges so I could kind of 'sculpt' rounded edges.
I used a low-temp glue gun to attach the horns, foam balls for eyes, craft foam teeth, and a felt tongue. Iím so glad my son said he wanted its tongue sticking out, because I think itís just the cutest!
For my daughter's costume, I came up with a ruffled skeleton!
My daughter is obsessed with ruffles. I'm pretty sure I've sewn ruffles onto just about everything she owns. So why should her costume be any different? Skeleton meets trendy.
Use a rotary cutter with an acrylic ruler on a cutting mat to cut out strips from a white t-shirt. Tip: When purchasing a shirt to cut up, buy the largest size. Shirts are usually the same price regardless of size, so you might as well get the most bang from your buck.
Run a long basting stich down the center of each strip (I just did this by hand). Pull material to gather, knot, and pin to a black shirt for machine sewing.
Tip: If I were to make this costume again, I would add the arm 'bones' to the front of the arms instead of down the center of the sleeves so they would be more visible from the front.
I pinned a bow (at my daughter's request) to the white hat I purchased to be the top of the 'skull'. To make your own felt bow, check out the directions from my lemonade stand article here.
These are two examples of creating fun, one-of-a-kind costumes quickly and easily. Try these or come up with your own ideas to craft up a memorable Halloween.

Plumbing a remodeled kitchen is a relatively easy job if your kitchen includes only a wall sink. If your project includes an island sink, however, the work becomes more complicated.
Plumbing a remodeled kitchen is a relatively easy job if your kitchen includes only a wall sink. If your project includes an island sink, however, the work becomes more complicated. An island sink poses problems because there is no wall in which to run a vent pipe. An island sink requires either a complicated configuration known as a loop vent or a device called an air admittance valve (AAV), now approved by most codes. An AAV eliminates the need for a loop vent in most island sink installations. Check with the local plumbing inspector before designing an installation with an AAV or a loop vent. For our demonstration kitchen, we divided the project into three phases:• How to Install DWV Pipes for a Wall Sink • How to Install DWV Pipes for an Island Sink • How to Install New Supply Pipes Our demonstration kitchen includes a double wall sink and an island sink. The 1 1⁄2" drain for the wall sink connects to an existing 2" galvanized waste-vent stack; since the trap is within 3 1⁄2 ft. of the stack, no vent pipe is required. The drain for the island sink uses a loop vent configuration connected to an auxiliary waste-vent stack in the basement.From: The Complete Guide to Plumbing, 978-1-58923-378-2
drillhole sawreciprocating sawmetal cutting bladesolvent gluescrewdriverratchet wrenchpipetubing cutter or hacksawbanded couplings
Insulate exterior walls if you live in a region with freezing winter temperatures. Where possible, run water supply pipes through the floor or interior partition walls, rather than exterior walls.
Use existing waste-vent stacks to connect the new DWV pipes. In addition to a main waste-vent stack, most homes have one or more auxiliary waste-vent stacks in the kitchen that can be used to connect new DWV pipes.
Loop vents makes it possible to vent a sink when there is no adjacent wall to house the vent pipe. The drain is vented with a loop of pipe that arches up against the countertop and away from the drain before dropping through the floor. The vent pipe then runs horizontally to an existing vent pipe. In our project, we have tied the island vent to a vent pipe extending up from a basement utility sink. Note: Loop vents are subject to local code restrictions. Always consult your building inspector for guidelines on venting an island sink.
Determine the location of the sink drain by marking the position of the sink and base cabinet on the floor. Mark a point on the floor indicating the position of the sink drain opening. This point will serve as a reference for aligning the sink drain stub-out.
Mark a route for the new drain pipe through the studs behind the wall sink cabinet. The drain pipe should angle 1⁄4" per foot down toward the waste-vent stack.
Use a right‑angle drill and hole saw to bore holes for the drain pipe. On non-loadbearing studs, such as the cripple studs beneath a window, you can notch the studs with a reciprocating saw to simplify the installation of the drain pipe. If the studs are loadbearing, however, you must thread the run though the bored holes, using couplings to join short lengths of pipe as you create the run.
Measure, cut, and dry-fit a horizontal drain pipe to run from the waste-vent stack to the sink drain stub-out. Create the stub-out with a 45° elbow and 6" length of 11⁄2" pipe. Note: If the sink trap in your installation will be more than 3 1⁄2 ft. from the waste-vent pipe, you will have to install a waste-T and run a vent pipe up the wall, connecting it to the vent stack at a point at least 6" above the lip of the sink.
Remove the neoprene sleeve from a banded coupling, then roll the lip back and measure the thickness of the separator ring.
Attach two lengths of 2" pipe, at least 4" long, to the top and bottom openings on a 2" x 2" x 1 1⁄2" waste-T. Hold the fitting alongside the waste-vent stack, then mark the stack for cutting, allowing space for the separator rings on the banded couplings.
Use riser clamps and 2 x 4 blocking to support the waste-vent stack above and below the new drain pipe, then cut out the waste-vent stack along the marked lines, using a reciprocating saw and metal-cutting blade.

Oliver + S Bucket Hats
Summer is here! The kids needed hats. Enter the Reversible Bucket Hat from Oliver + S Little Things to Sew (also available as a free pattern download here).
For Finley's hat, I extended the brim by 1.5 inches à la A Little Gray and I love it. It makes the hat much more feminine and even offers better sun coverage. I highly recommend it.
I also assembled the hat using A Little Gray's no hand stitch method because I hate hand stitching.a.lot. It worked like charm.
I used shot cotton in lilac on one side and some random hobby lobby fabric on the other.
I made the size large for Finley. Large is supposed to fit 6-8 year olds. Finley just turned 5 and the hat is snug. I guess she has a larger than average head…to accommodate her larger than average brain, of course .
Nash's hat situation is a work in progress. I actually made his hat first. I made him a size small, which is meant for 12-24 months. Nash is almost 2, so SHOCKER, the hat is too small. I'm not sure why I decided to size down on this one…it must have been late. Oh well, let's just call this my practice hat or future hat for baby boy #2.
I don't love the prints on this hat. I think I will go the solid color route on at least one side next time. Don't you think?
UPDATE: I made Nash a new hat. Check it out here.

Perfect timing for the beach trip ! I like the car/building material, but not with the green circle for Nash…I agree with a solid for the other side. BUT, very cute !
Ana Sofia says:
Beautiful hats! (and great reminder that I need to start the summer hat production as well)
I also love it with one-solid side – makes it a bit more easy to match with the summer clothes -
Melissa L says:
I find they run small too. Measured son's head at 19″ so I made the small….too small! Thanks for the link to the no hand sew method, I'll use that on the next one!

Antigua - Sailors Valentine Pendant with Aquamarine Nuggets, Labradorite and Freshwater Pearls Necklace The Sailors Valentine originated as a way for sailors to not only express their love for wives and family, but to also while away the endless days at sea. Fashioned from varieties of colorful shells found during their travels, these beautiful mosaics were originally housed in wooden boxes and covered in glass. I first became aware of these highly collectible works of art early during our 10 year sojourns to Nantucket for the summer. Imagine my delight in finding these miniature versions of Sailors Valentines encased in vintage/antique pocket watches! An exquisitely detailed pre-ban ivory flower is the focal point of this unique Sailors Valentine pocket watch. A painstaking arrangement of the most miniature shells in creamy ivory and aqua blue reminds us of the exotic origins of these petite shells. Gorgeous step-faceted aquamarine nuggets with hand-coiled loops are interspersed with freshwater baroque pearls and mystic labradorite hand-linked chain. In addition to the unique antique Sailors Valentine pocket watch, a generous amulet of aqua flash labradorite is joined with a diminutive heart and a bronze cast charm made from a wax seal dating back to the 1700s. This wonderful armorial seal depicts a square rig ship, a mermaid above - and below, a banner with the French motto non dormit qui custody which translates to the sentinel sleeps not. These necklaces are truly one-of-a-kind designs that will mesmerize your friends! 28.5 long with 4 pendant drop. Reference: 28763

Mob1p is an essential Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein, identified from a two-hybrid screen, that binds Mps1p, a protein kinase essential for spindle pole body duplication and mitotic checkpoint regulation. Mob1p contains no known structural motifs; however MOB1 is a member of a conserved gene family and shares sequence similarity with a nonessential yeast gene, MOB2. Mob1p is a phosphoprotein in vivo and a substrate for the Mps1p kinase in vitro. Conditional alleles of MOB1 cause a late nuclear division arrest at restrictive temperature. MOB1 exhibits genetic interaction with three other yeast genes required for the completion of mitosis, LTE1, CDC5, and CDC15 (the latter two encode essential protein kinases). Most haploid mutant mob1 strains also display a complete increase in ploidy at permissive temperature. The mechanism for the increase in ploidy may occur through MPS1 function. One mob1 strain, which maintains stable haploidy at both permissive and restrictive temperature, diploidizes at permissive temperature when combined with the mps1-1 mutation. Strains containing mob2Delta also display a complete increase in ploidy when combined with the mps1-1 mutation. Perhaps in addition to, or as part of, its essential function in late mitosis, MOB1 is required for a cell cycle reset function necessary for the initiation of the spindle pole body duplication.

Hi, I'm new to here as I thought I would come straight to the experts and ask!
I have a fiesta mk2 1984 A reg, red, 32000 miles from new sat on my drive. I inherited it with the house. the 1 owner from new always had it garaged until I moved it on to the drive 3 years ago, where it has stayed since. My daughter has lost the key and i dont have the logbook. Its sound condition, bit of rust on the bottom of the front wing and the colour has started to fade. Interior is imaculate. It use to start first time every time (when i had a key!). Some say its worth £200+, some say its worth nothing. Is it worth advertising or is the scrap man my best bet?
Thanks, bazz.

While wire services are lighting up with news that eBay has lowered insertion fees, the truth is that eBay has increased fees in many cases.
If you list 100 items with a starting and ending price of $9 with a 50 percent sell-through rate (50 items out of 100 actually sell), it would cost you a total of $63.63 in fees under the old structure and a total of $74.38 under the new structure. This is a fee increase of 17 percent.
This is based on the old insertion fee of 40 cents plus commission fee of 5.25%, and the new insertion fee of 35 cents plus 8.75% FVF.
If you list 100 items with a starting price of $9 and sell 50 percent of them at a selling price of $35, you would have paid $121.75 in total fees under the old pricing structure. Under the new pricing, you would pay $162. That is a 33 percent fee increase.
Despite this, John Donahoe just announced in his keynote address at the Ecommerce Forum that the majority of sellers will see a decrease in fees - let me know if this makes sense in your specific situation.
Check my math, and let us know how these changes will affect you!
Call 1-877-222-0856 and leave a 60 second message about what you think of these changes.
Update: As the first person comments below, Gallery fees make a difference.eBay is now making the Gallery feature free. Here's how the numbers work:
$9 starting and ending price with 50% sell through, with gallery: Old fees: $98.63, new fees: $74.38: A decrease by 25%
$9 starting price with $35 ending price with 50% sell through, with gallery: Old fees: $156.75, new fees: $162: An increase of 3.35%.

Lifting 2.0: The New Biology Of Bigger Muscles
In the fitness world, certain truths are held to be self-evident: Big lifts produce big gains, greater intensity fuels greater results, and less rest equals less fat and more strength. But science is now finding that many of these hard-and-fast muscle rules are not as immutable as we once thought.
"We're a lot smarter than we were even five years ago," says Bill Hartman, C.S.C.S., co-owner of Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training. "Researchers and trainers are all starting to agree on what works and what doesn't."
The guessing game, in other words, is finally coming to an end. Read on to discover how the nation's top fitness coaches are incorporating lab-tested strength secrets into their workout plans, and how you can do the same to lift more weight, build more muscle, and lose those 10 extra pounds you've been complaining about since college. The path to the body you've always wanted starts here.
New Way /// Warm Up with Jumps
There is a reason why sprinters hop a few times before stepping into the starting blocks. Practice jumps kickstart the central nervous system, helping to activate more muscle fibers.
"The name for this neuromuscular priming is post-activation potentiation (PAP)," says Tony Gentilcore, C.S.C.S., co-owner of Cressey Performance in Hudson, Massachusetts. "And it's a key to greater strength both in and out of the gym."
Consider this: Separate studies published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research show that inducing PAP through jumps can help you leap more than seven percent higher and squat nearly 18 more pounds.
Apply It: For an immediate boost prior to a lower-body exercise, do three quick countermovement jumps: Push your hips back, bend your knees, and leap vertically. For upper-body moves, Gentilcore recommends a single, extra-heavy rep at the beginning of an exercise. "It fires up your nervous system and makes the subsequent reps feel significantly lighter."
New Way /// Do Less Work, Better
You don't have to push your body to the limit to see results, says Martin Rooney, C.S.C.S., CEO of Training for Warriors. "Training eventually becomes less effective as you tire and your form breaks down," he says.
After that threshold, gains dwindle and injury risk increases. The key is to figure out the dose that helps you meet your goals without jeopardizing your health.
Apply It: Don't do more than a total of 22 good sets in a workout if you're looking to bulk up, says Rooney. Also, limit yourself to 4 sets per exercise. Researchers in Australia found that more than 4 sets offers diminishing returns.
New Way /// Go Light to Grow Big
"High weight, low reps" is the classic mantra of men who are trying to pack on size and strength.
But a new study in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that lifting lighter weights for more reps—3 sets of up to 30 reps—can boost growth as much as lifting heavy weights in the 8-12-rep range.
"As long as your muscles reach fatigue, they'll grow," says John Romaniello, N.S.C.A.-C.P.T., owner of Roman Fitness Systems. "And some muscles, like those in your lower body, respond better to high reps."
Apply It: Do "breathing reps" for several of your lifts. Load a bar with a weight you can squat, press, or lift 12-15 times, and do those reps.
Without letting go of the bar, set it down, take two breaths, and do 1-or-2 more repetitions.
Continue the process until you reach 20 reps. That's 1 set; do 3 sets total.
"Including both high- and low-rep sets in your workouts ensures that you hit both your fast-and your slow-twitch muscle fibers," says Romaniello.
New Way /// Haul More Weight
Most men are accustomed to lifting, pushing, and pressing heavy loads. But when asked to carry one—whether it's a sandbag, kettlebell, or air conditioner—many become a stumbling mess after a few paces.
"They challenge your entire body, especially your lateral core strength, which is critical for everything from fast cuts to powerful serves," says Stuart McGill, Ph.D., author of the seminal study on the subject, published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. That's because "loaded carries" simultaneously test your stability, mobility, balance, and grip while keeping your muscles under constant tension.
Apply It: Add the suitcase carry to your next workout. Grab a heavy kettlebell or dumbbell (45 pounds is a good starting weight) and walk forward and backward for 30-75 seconds.
"The asymmetrical load works your obliques—which are important for lateral core strength—as well as your glutes, which are essential for athletic power," says McGill.
New Way /// Personalize Your Rest
Trainers know that exercise affects everyone differently, and Brazilian researchers recently confirmed that notion when they found that people differ significantly in their recovery needs. Without proper recovery, performance suffers, especially if you're doing circuits.
"Use a heart rate monitor to customize your rest," says Rachel Cosgrove, co-owner of Results Fitness in California. "Waiting until your heart rate reaches a certain level results in true recovery between work periods, which is particularly beneficial for losing weight."
Apply It: Determine your maximum heart rate: Multiply your age by 0.7 and then subtract that number from 207. Then strap on a heart rate monitor and track your pulse between circuits.
When it drops to 75 percent of your maximum, begin your next one. "Your rest periods will become longer the farther you get into your workout," says Cosgrove. "But your form—and performance—should be better throughout."

this is all real ! Working in metaphysics programs : 18 training of 6-8 reps, 18 of 10-40 reps, 9 of super set between 12-15 reps and come back to streng. It works for growing. Never droped lower than 6 reps and I progress. The form is important and the feeling of the muscle working too. Graet article, 20/10

I have found working in the 20-30 rep range (sets taken to complete failure) is highly beneficial for new muscle growth. It's helped me add some great new size.
But this method doesn't work because you're stimulating the "slow twitch fibers," as this article suggests. Rather, it works because it creates chemical damage in the muscle (the build up of metabolic toxins). And this is shown to stimulate protein synthesis.
If you're in a rut, I highly recommend trying this for a couple weeks. Do one week in the 20-30 rep range. The next in the 15-20 rep range. The re-introduce the heavier loads to help keep strength levels up.

I hit a wall where my work outs felt non effective even though I was lifting as much as I could for each set. Started a similar principle on my own noticing some real positive results.

This is certainly great advice. Some of it already worked for me in the past. I'm gonna apply it all to my routine, asap.

This is so true, we are just now beginning to understand how the body works. We are better understanding the proteins in our bodies and how they react for muscle growth. The pH levels and balance of the body is so important for overall health, the testosterone levels of both men and woman is what allows us to have good energy and healthy growth.

BA in Religion and Global Society |
Religious Studies is an academic discipline in which you'll study the religious systems of the world (large and small, past and present) in their socio-historical contexts and critically examine the phenomenon of religion as it relates to issues of personal meaning and international affairs. At Webster University, we encourage you to explore contemporary issues in an open, sharing atmosphere.
We see the religions of the world as complex, living traditions, not simply history and scripture. We study all forms of expression of the religious life -- myth, art, meditation, ritual, ideas, festivals, mysticism -- whether the expression is found in individual feelings or in historical traditions like Buddhism or Christianity.
We do not consider religious experiences or ideas to be right or wrong. Rather, we try to understand religious expressions within the cultures of the world, and we try to understand religious expressions as resources by which we can find meaning in our lives today. As an international university, Webster has students with roots in all of the major religious traditions of the world. Thus, a respect for the views of others is mandatory.
Religious Studies majors have pursued a wide range of careers and graduate studies including ministry, social work, education, social action and business. Many students who major in religious studies also major in other departments.
Points of Distinction
- Develop practical and ethical skills by doing field projects in which alternative practices and beliefs are encountered
- Achieve individual, creative excellence through individualized assignments enabled through the online technology
- Opportunities for international study at our campuses in Geneva, Switzerland; London, United Kingdom; Vienna, Austria; Leiden, the Netherlands; and Thailand and China.
Degree Requirements
This degree has a minimum of 128 credit hours consisting of the following: 30 required credit hours in religious studies,12 required credit hours in arts and sciences courses, applicable university global citizenship or general education program hours, and electives.

Wow! I was just thinking how much the pelvic girdle had to change by evolution before species could stand up and walk. And there must have been a lot of failed births until the female body evolved to the point where everything worked right for the pregnancy and the birth was successful.
I can't imagine how much trial and error went on in the evolution of hormones. Hormones produced during pregnancy signal the joints in the pelvic girdle to loosen up.

This program examines the interconnections between the economics, politics, geography, and science of climate change and its effects on human society. Students learn about the varied impacts of climate change — extreme weather, desertification, ocean acidification, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, loss of biodiversity, and dangerous social upheavals — and are encouraged to think seriously about realistic solutions.
Key Questions:
Please note that in order to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, program excursions may occasionally vary.
(2 weeks)
The program begins in the San Francisco Bay Area, where students examine basic climate science both globally and regionally. Students also explore the fossil fuel industry and California's burgeoning renewable energy sector involving wind, solar, and geothermal energy. The program looks at the health of San Francisco Bay and examines the politics and economics of aquaculture. South of the city, students study the state's massive agricultural sector, both organic and chemical based. Students also meet activists struggling to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
(4 weeks)
Students pass through Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city in Vietnam, on their way to Can Tho, the main city in the Mekong River Delta, which is a site of major rice and fish production and is, in many ways, the heart of the Vietnamese economy. The Delta, along with being economically important, is very vulnerable to rising sea levels caused by anthropogenic climate change and is threatened upstream by massive dam building. In the Delta, students stay with local families, meet farmers, spend time in an eco-reserve, and possibly tour a new wind farm. Next, the group travels north to Hanoi, Vietnam's capital city, to meet with NGOs and government officials and to tour sites like a major hydro-electric dam and to visit the Red River Delta.
(4 weeks)
Students are based in the port city of Rabat, Morocco's capital and political and diplomatic center, and travel to other important sites within the country. They visit Casablanca, Morocco's largest city and economic center, and have an excursion to the Atlas Mountains, where they study issues around water and development. Further north, in Tetuan, students visit a major wind farm.
(5 weeks)
Students are based in Cochabamba, one of Bolivia's most socially progressive cities and, in 2000, the location of successful protests against the privatization of water. They take excursions to La Paz, Bolivia's seat of government, and Lake Titicaca, which, since 2000, has experienced consistently receding water levels because of changes in climate. Bolivia is a politically complex country; on one hand it has very strong social movements, has elected the first indigenous president in the world, and has passed a new constitution that recognizes the "rights of Mother Earth." On the other hand, Bolivia's economy is still structurally dependent on mining and exporting natural gas.
The program takes a holistic, interdisciplinary view of academic topics, drawing not only on articles and faculty lectures, but also student observations, guest lectures, and homestay interviews to facilitate learning. Assignments typically involve written essays, oral presentations, and more creative projects such as posters and photo stories.
A major portion of the curriculum will be based on field trips, interviews, and guest lectures. The field trips and interviews must be structured around the core themes of the curriculum as laid out in the four classes. In addition to classroom time and field trips, students will have time to reflect on and write about their learning and experiences on the program. At the end of the program, students will produce a cumulative project involving data collection and qualitative research undertaken in each of the countries visited.
Students enrolled in this program will take all courses listed below for a total of 16 credits.
The following syllabi are either from a recent session of this program or for an upcoming session. Because courses develop and change over time to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, actual course content will vary from term to term.
The syllabi can be useful for students, faculty, and study abroad offices in assessing credit transfer. Read more about credit transfer.
Political Economy and Environmental History: 1492 to the Present – syllabus
(ECON 3010 / 4 credits / 60 hours)
This course analyzes the development and history of modern capitalism on a global scale. Topics of consideration within this context include state formation, war, imperialism, technology, energy, environmental change, economic crisis, and "long waves of accumulation." There is a particular focus on post-World War II developments, including the rise of Keynesianism globally; the role of socialist economies; the political economy of the Cold War; Third World development; the global crisis of profitability in the 1970s, the resultant economic restructuring, and the turn toward neoliberalism; the collapse of communism; the acceleration of neoliberalism and its deepening crisis; the rise of developing economies such as China; and the possibility of alternative economic models.
Comparative Issues in Food, Water, and Energy – syllabus
(SDIS 3070 / 4 credits / 60 hours)
This course looks at agriculture and energy, and the attendant resources upon which those sectors depend. Students visit farms, fishing communities, food processors, and food transportation companies, while examining the history and political economy of food production in each country visited. A similar approach is taken in examining the energy sector; fieldwork complements detailed studies of geography and political economy as students encounter the natural sciences, companies, technologies, and regulatory arrangements that constitute "the energy sector." The course also examines the technologies of emerging alternatives such as solar, wind, and tidal power.
The Science and Policy of Climate Change – syllabus
(ECOL 3010 / 4 credits / 60 hours)
This course unpacks the basic science of the climate system by examining the state-of-the-art science collated by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and through regular engagement with scientists and researchers. Students learn how to read scientific papers and analyze the policy process at local, national, and international levels. They also consider the tangle of acronyms — such as IPCCC, UNFCCC, and CDM — that define international policy discourses on climate change. The course looks at smaller scale, regional initiatives such as California's state-level efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions and its investments in renewable energy; Morocco's green plan; and Plan 2020.
Fieldwork Ethics and Comparative Research Methods – syllabus
(ANTH 3500 / 4 credits / 60 hours)
This course enables students to understand and benefit from experience-based learning processes. It provides students with skills related to gathering, analyzing, and interpreting information from a range of sources, maximizing the knowledge provided by local contexts. The course intends to assist students in assessing their own cultural assumptions and in understanding people from different cultures. Students are familiarized with the World Learning/SIT Human Subjects Review Policy. The seminar provides a framework for a cumulative project involving data collection and qualitative research undertaken in each of the countries visited.

AIN provides information and analysis to NGO colleagues, the media, and international policymakers on developments in Bolivia and the impact of the US government and European policies. Working closely with civil society organizations in Latin America and the United States, AIN promotes policy dialogue and the development of pragmatic alternatives that address the underlying economic, social, political, and cultural needs of Bolivia. Kathryn lives in Cochabamba, Bolivia, and has been AIN's director since 1999. She is the author of numerous articles as well as the chapter on Bolivia in the book Drugs and Democracy in Latin America (2003).

Michael Shanks first came to Bolivia in 1996 as an undergraduate student in SIT's study abroad program. The experience sparked a passion and love of Bolivian culture and history that continues to this day. After completing the semester, Michael stayed in Bolivia to work as a research assistant with the Andean Information Network (AIN) and later produced a documentary video with AIN on human rights, coca production, and alternative development. Since 2013 Michael has lived and worked in Cochabamba, Bolivia: raising a family, building a house, and fundraising for a local equine therapy program that serves at-risk youth.
Michael's professional experience also includes many years employed as a field examiner with the National Labor Relations Board. During that time he investigated unfair labor practices, administered formal hearings on union representation issues, and held elections on the question of union representation in the workplace.
Michael received his bachelor's degree in international relations at San Francisco State University and his master's degree in Latin American studies at U.C. Berkeley. His master's thesis focused on the emergence of indigenous political parties, the reaction of traditional elites, and how concepts of "race" influence society, politics, and governance. While at Berkeley, Michael was a teaching assistant for courses on international political economy and economic history.
Phuong earned a master's degree in sustainable development from SIT Graduate Institute in 2010 and a bachelor of science in international relations from Edgewood College, Madison, Wisconsin, in 2007. After ten years studying and living in the US, Phuong moved back to Vietnam in late 2010 and worked for UN-REDD Programme Vietnam as a communication and network officer, and now she is a coordinator for Participatory Governance Assessment for REDD+ with UNDP Vietnam.
Ayesha Siddiqi is an idealist. It is what brought her to the world of international development and climate change. After completing an MA at the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) at the University of Sussex, she worked for a while as a climate change consultant for a large energy and environment consulting company. As part of her job she provided technical assistance to the government of Tajikistan on a large donor-funded project on climate resilience and also provided policy advice to governments in Europe. She promptly returned to academia to pursue a PhD in war studies and geography at King's College London. Ayesha's research examines the impact of climatic disasters on local politics in vulnerable communities and is based on months of anthropological fieldwork conducted in one region of southern Pakistan that was affected by large scale flooding in 2010 and 2011. Spending time with regular people facing extraordinary challenges in the face of environmental and political change renewed her belief that attempting to understand, study, and make sense of dynamic social and political processes as academics is a noble intellectual and academic pursuit. Her idealism restored, she has published her research on climate change and development issues in leading journals and publications and will soon be defending her PhD thesis on this subject as well. Ayesha particularly enjoys teaching and takes pride in her reputation for challenging students to think outside the box. Besides idealism, she has also successfully taught courses in theories of war studies and postcolonial and development theory.
Before joining the Climate Change program, Dr. Niels Hahn convened and taught courses on the political economy of war, conflict, and development at the University of London. His research interests include issues such as political economy of industrial development, labor, energy, environment and climate change, neoliberalism, international relations, power, knowledge, propaganda, war, and conflict. His research and teaching is partly based on his professional experience with Médecins Sans Frontières. Niels has worked in countries such as Afghanistan, China, Ethiopia/Ogaden, Liberia, Tanzania, Somalia, and Sudan/Darfur.
Mae Quilty is a native of Boston, MA, with a passion for the environment. She graduated from Saint Michael's College in 2011 with a degree in political science and a minor in English. During her junior year, Mae had the opportunity to study abroad in South Africa where she focused on HIV/AIDS prevention and deepened her passion for community engagement. After college, Mae worked in Grand Teton National Park for two summers before returning home to Massachusetts to complete a year of service with AmeriCorps at United Teen Equality Center. Most recently, Mae began the pursuit of her master's degree in sustainable development at SIT Graduate Institute in Brattleboro, Vermont. During her first year, Mae helped launch a divestment campaign on campus and focused her coursework on environmental policy both in the United States and abroad. She also did an independent study in Costa Rica where she completed a permaculture design course on an off-the-grid farm on the Caribbean Coast. She is passionate about alternative food systems and solutions to the climate crisis and looks forward to an exciting fall with IHP.
Caitlyn Clark is pursuing her degree in sustainable development at SIT Graduate Institute in Brattleboro, VT. She received her BA in cultural anthropology from Bryn Mawr College in 2007 and spent the following summer studying Maya archaeology in Mexico. Caitlyn then moved to Philadelphia where she served under Americorps for two years, working in public high schools. She also rehabbed an abandoned elementary school garden, taught summer school, coached soccer, and frequented many farmer's markets. But it was a humanitarian trip to Cuba in 2006 that fostered Caitlyn's passion for traveling, more specifically, traveling with the purpose of engaging with people in different countries, while studying the cultural, socioeconomic, and political factors within a specific context. Before moving to Vermont, she returned to Cuba and then backpacked through Latin America for eight months, setting up volunteer gigs along the way. She started in Peru, where she served as the coordinator for undergraduate students in an archaeological field school, and ended in Guatemala, at a health and nutrition nonprofit serving youth in the Tz'utujil community. Caitlyn's studies at SIT have merged her interests in Latin America, sustainable food systems, climate change, and community development.
Students live with a host family for between two and four weeks at each program site, with the exception of the first US location. Homestays are the primary form of accommodation on the program; other accommodations can include guest houses, hostels, dormitories, and/or small hotels.
Homestay families provide students with the opportunity to live as integrated members of their host communities. In sharing daily life, conversations, family stories, celebrations, and community events, students not only learn a tremendous amount, but also develop lasting friendships.
Family structures vary in every place, and SIT values the diversity of homestay families. For example, the host family may include a single mother of two small children or a large extended family with many people coming and going all the time. Please bear in mind that the idea of what constitutes a "home" (i.e., the physical nature of the house) may be different from what one expects. Students will need to be prepared to adapt to a new life with a new diet, a new schedule, new people, and possibly new priorities and expectations.
Country coordinators in each location arrange homestay placements. In most cases, students will be placed in homestays in pairs, with placements made to best accommodate health concerns, including allergies or dietary needs. Students do not receive information about homestay families until they arrive in each country.

NEW YORK – Wanted: A few good recruits to serve coffee and help combat terrorism at 30,000 feet.
American Airlines said Wednesday that it will post job openings for 1,500 flight attendants next month. It will start hiring in December and put the new staff in training beginning in January.
That may seem like a strange move for a company trying to cut labor costs under bankruptcy protection, but the airline needs to replace some of the 2,205 flight attendants who have accepted a $40,000 buyout to leave the company – the equivalent of about a year's salary. It's the first time the company has hired flight attendants in 11 years.
The departing flight attendants all started working before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that included the crashes of two American Airlines jets.
Since then, they've seen their company lose more than $10 billion. In 2003, workers accepted pay cuts to keep American out of bankruptcy, then were outraged to discover that hundreds of management employees have received bonuses.
The flight attendants' final departures will be staggered over the next year.
The job they're leaving has lost the allure it had back when passengers flew in their Sunday best and received free meals in coach. It often involves long hours and responsibilities ranging from basic hosting duties to medical interventions – and even terrorism prevention.
Briefings on the buyouts were standing-room-only, according to representatives of the flight attendants' union.
The offer was open to those with at least 15 years at the airline, which currently has about 16,000 flight attendants.
The buyouts were part of a concessionary contract approved by flight attendants in August and were aimed at reducing the number of layoffs.
The contract would impose tougher scheduling rules but give the attendants a 3 percent stake in American's parent, AMR Corp., after it emerges from bankruptcy protection.

quote:We lost b/c the fans question the coaches.
quote:Yes, the fans were the ones that put grease on OBJ's hands
quote:For those thinking the loss will change Les, the NC embarrassment didn't so why would this loss?
quote:Perhaps catching very catchable passes or after a huge pass play don't fumble when being tackeled. these things change the dynamic.
quote:Would you suspect any changes in coaching style just might help some receivers to learn the basics about catching passes and holding onto the ball? Would that be drastic? I'd say that if LSU's receivers began catching and not dropping or fumbling, the changes would be drastically for the better. And I'd give props to both players and coaches for the change.
quote:so why would this loss?
quote:why do we have to keep looking at the NCG as if it makes any difference to the 2012 team.
quote:Clearly the 1/9 loss exposed *CLM for the stubborn and shockingly clueless blockhead he can be. And since the Alabama game, for some reason, instead of rising above, learning from his errors and moving on to bigger and better things with LSU, he's showing what appears to be a self-destructive determination to prove himself right by continually repeating what has now repeatedly been exposed as ineffective about his coaching style and offensive staff's coaching styles (when allowed to coach).
quote:the NC game was lost at the f-ing O-line...no QB would have fixed that.
quote:This loss individually sin't going to do shit, but if LSU struggles offensively all year and loses 4 or 5? he's not going to have a choice.
quote: Seriously Miles knows as long as does not do worse than the Peach Bowl year after year he is not going anywhere
quote:Probably not but it is obvious he does not give a sh-t. It showed on the sidelines on 1/9/12 and it has shown all season long.

Nerdist Podcast: Diani & Devine
By Katie Levine on July 27, 2012
Gabe Diani & Etta Devine are a wonderfully hilarious comedy team and longtime friends of Chris (Nerdist Stand-Up Cluster 2). They ran a successful kickstarter campaign to make "Huck Finn: Robotic Edition" and are currently raising money to get their film The Selling a theatrical release. Because we have a lot of creative-y types who listen to the show, we brought them on to share their insight about making film, sketch comedy, and books from scratch. They are the ultimate DIYers, so pull up a chair (or stand if you really feel like it) and take some notes. If you've been on the fence about making a thing you want to make, the time is now!
Didn't care much for their comedy on the cluster but this was cool. Ill have to give em another shot
K, I'm good.
Albacore — Who's your friend?
omg, that Geriatric phone sex worker bit they had in the cluster made me laugh so much. downloading…. now!
What was that site mentioned around 1:01:30 that sounded like "Hora"? I've never heard of it, but it sounded very interesting and helpful. I can't seem to locate it online. :/ Please help? Thanks.
The site they mentioned is Quora. Cool site, for sure.
@Colton Myers – Much thanks. I appreciate it.
Chris, I believe you should rename your fists ":Compounded" and "Interest."

Nice podcast. Very informative, even if you don't want to make a film. Interesting.
I thought that was them! I didn't want to say it without checking though and look like an idiot if I was wrong. I loved that bit along with the tortoise and the hare bit. Super clever.I also learned a lot from this ep, including the importance of surrounding yourself with people who will support you and push you to follow what you're passionate about like these two do for each other.

Loved their Kickstarter project. Gave my two sons both copies of "Huckleberry Finn Robotic Edition" for Christmas last year. The book was a huge hit, and my younger son read it out loud to family members. Much raucous laughter all around. For my family of bibliophiles, this parody really added to our festivities.
Thanks Nerdist, for this great interview with Diani & Devine. The Selling trailer is very funny.

(Backlog listener) Very funny people. Robotic Edition is a genius idea. And for such funny and smart people, "Asperger-y" really seemed in poor taste.
