GMO. Vet Recommends Medical Marijuana for Pets in Pain. (KTLA) — A growing number of veterinarians across the U.S. support the idea of using medical marijuana to treat pets in pain.
Local veterinarian Doug Kramer, who runs the Vet Guru animal center in Chatsworth, said the active ingredient in pot, THC, could be the key to helping Fido feel better. Kramer, 36, said a friend told him she used marijuana to treat her dog when other traditional medications failed. So when his own dog, a Siberian husky, was diagnosed with terminal cancer Kramer felt he had nothing to lose. Marijuana didn't cure Nikita, but she seemed to feel less pain during her final days, Kramer said. But uncontrolled use of the drug has some veterinarians concerned about the possibility of toxicity. » Confirmed: Navy Yard Shooter Was On Anti-Depressant Trazodone Alex Jones.

HuffNatural News September 19, 2013 Widespread consumer demand for plastic products that are free of the hormone-disrupting chemical bisphenol-A (BPA) has led to some significant positive changes in the way that food, beverage and water containers are manufactured. But a new study out of Germany has found that thousands of other potentially harmful chemicals are still leeching from plastic products into food and beverages, including an endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC) known as di(2-ethylhexyl) fumarate, or DEHF, that is completely unregulated.

France confirms it will continue ban on GMO corn, despite council ruling. (NaturalNews) It has been confirmed that France will extend its moratorium on the cultivation of Monsanto's genetically-modified (GM) MON810 corn within its borders, despite a recent ruling by the French Council of State that the longstanding ban violates European Union (EU) law.
As reported in a recent AFP article translated into English by GMWatch.org, French Head of State Francois Hollande made an official public announcement that the moratorium will, indeed, be extended in order to ensure the integrity of the nation's agricultural system. France first enacted a temporary ban on MON810 more than six years ago, citing an array of environmental threats posed by the untested "Frankencorn. " The decision came after the European Commission (EC), of which France is a member, failed to suspend approval of the crop after studies had shown that the transgenic corn carries with it "important risks" to the environment.

President Barack Obama hugs HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi after signing the Obamacare law on March 23, 2010.
(White House photo/Pete Souza) (CNSNews.com) – In a final regulation issued Wednesday, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) assumed that under Obamacare the cheapest health insurance plan available in 2016 for a family will cost $20,000 for the year. Under Obamacare, Americans will be required to buy health insurance or pay a penalty to the IRS. The IRS's assumption that the cheapest plan for a family will cost $20,000 per year is found in examples the IRS gives to help people understand how to calculate the penalty they will need to pay the government if they do not buy a mandated health plan.
The examples point to families of four and families of five, both of which the IRS expects in its assumptions to pay a minimum of $20,000 per year for a bronze plan. Soda, candy out under USDA's proposed school snack rules. The Obama administration proposed regulations Friday that would prohibit U.S. schools from selling unhealthy snacks.
The 160-page regulation from the Department of Agriculture (USDA) would enact nutrition standards for "competitive" foods not included in the official school meal. In practice, the proposed rules would replace traditional potato chips with baked versions and candy with granola. Regular soda is out, though high-schoolers may have access to diet versions. "Although nutrition standards for foods sold at school alone may not be a determining factor in children's overall diets, they are critical to providing children with healthy food options throughout the entire school day," the proposed rule states.
"Thus, these standards will help to ensure that the school nutrition environment does all that it can to promote healthy choice, and help to prevent diet-related health problems.

This is well illustrated with regard to the relation between atom bomb tests and thyroid cancer.
In 1983, responding to public protests and demands, Congress enacted Public Law (97-414). This directed the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to investigate the risks of thyroid cancer from Iodine-131 (I-131) radioactive fallout following atom bomb tests at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) in the 1950's and early 1960's; DHHS delegated this investigation to the NCI.

Ten Studies Showing the Link Between Sugar and Increased Cancer Risk. How cancer feeds on sugar (and other big reasons to avoid refined sweets) (NaturalNews) Not only is sugar the primary source of excess calories in the United States, but the latest research also shows that cancer cells lap up high-fructose corn syrup, adding yet another reason to avoid it. A couple of years ago, researchers from the University of California-Los Angeles found that pancreatic tumor cells use fructose to divide and reproduce, debunking earlier assumptions that all sugars were the same. Tumor cells that were fed glucose and fructose used those sugars in two different ways, the research team said.
'Major significance for cancer patients' Their findings, which were published in the journal Cancer Research, could help explain earlier studies that have linked ingestion of fructose with pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest forms of the disease. "These findings show that cancer cells can readily metabolize fructose to increase proliferation," Dr. Top 10 Natural Cancer Cures No One is Talking About.
Chinese Plant Compound Wipes out Cancer in 40 Days, Says New Research. A little-known plant with a truly bizarre name is now making headlines as a cancer killer, with the compound of the plant vanishing tumors in mice with pancreatic cancer. Known as the 'thunder god vine' or lei gong teng, the Chinese plant is actually integrated into Chinese medicine and has been used for ages in remedying a number of conditions including rheumatoid arthritis. According to the new research out of the University of Minnesota's Masonic Cancer Center, the thunder god plant compound led to no signs of tumors after a 40 day period — even after discontinuing the treatment.
Published in the journal Science Translational Medicine and funded by the National Institutes of Health, even the scientists working on the project were stunned by the anti-cancer properties of the compound.

We had great time in Singapore last year and so we decided to go again for the second race in the Lion City. And I am glad we did so.
There was not that much wrong with organization in 2008 but there were some annoying things especially when it came to food and beverage. Clearly the organizers listened to the feedback because the improvement this year was obvious. But let's start with basic – the logistic.
It all begins at the airport. I arrived sometime about noon on Friday. In matter of minutes I passed the immigration and picked up the luggage from the belt. The only slight delay was the process of getting the prepaid card for mobile. In Singapore they do record the identity of the SIM card buyer and as a result the whole thing takes about 5 minutes. That includes scanning the passport but also getting the phone set up and running by the friendly staff.
There was significantly less F1 at the airport this time than last year. The arrival hall was all about F1 in 2008, it looked like a normal day in business this year. With no time to waste I moved towards the taxi queue. It looked a bit long at first but with plenty of taxis around I was on my way almost immediately.
We expected a bit more hassle with getting to and from the track. Last year we were a large group traveling around in minibus. This time all we needed was one cab. But on Friday we decided to test the subway + shuttle route. It passed the test, I can highly recommend that. The only thing that could see some improvement are the tickets. The multi-day passes were sold out. The single trip tickets were only available from machines. There were not that many of them and as most of the buyers were tourist who need a while to work out how the machine exactly works the queues were long and moving very slowly. The whole procedure was a bit painful. (And then after journey you also need to return the used ticket to collect the deposit). On the first day we probably spent more time getting the tickets than traveling to our destination. But once we got on the train all was OK. The race tickets clearly marked the station we needed to get to. Right at the station exit there were organizers shouting "F1 gate 1″ and pointing us in the direction of shuttle buses. The longest we had to wait for the bus was about a minute. Top marks. The best part about the shuttle bus is that it brings you very close to the track unlike taxis that have to drop you quite far away.
Leaving the track was easy as well. We aimed for taxis as out post event destination was the city and the party. The walk from gate 1 to nearest taxi stand took about 15 minutes. It was almost impossible to miss with all the people helping with directions. On Friday and Saturday we were sitting in the taxi in no time. On Sunday we spent about 10-15 minutes in the orderly queue. Obviously the F1 surcharge (SGD5.00) motivated the taxi drivers to go and pick up F1 spectators.
Now, back to the venue itself. I can only talk about the area around the Turn 1,2,3 grandstands as that is all I could see. There were some obvious layout changes. The stage was moved back, further from the grandstand closer to the gate. The same happened with some of the merchandise booths. The newly created space close to the grandstands was filled with bars. This made the food and drinks much more accessible than last year. And as there were more outlets the queues were shorter, one did not have to plan 2 hours ahead when thinking how many drinks or how much food to buy to avoid lining up again. The whole set up combined with the fact that all was happening late in the evening made the waiting time between FP1 and FP2 or FP3 and qualifying a very pleasant experience. Here are few pictures (click on thumbnails to enlarge):
There was always something happening at the stage. For me the worst part was accidentally ending up at Backstreet Boys concert for a minute or two , the best was the performance by Strange Fruit – a group of performers swinging around on 4 meters tall flexible poles (I believe there must be some videos somewhere on YouTube). Different people have different tastes and different tastes were served. I think the organizers have done a great job here. The F1 tickets are not cheap, especially in Singapore, but the effort to provide value in return is obvious in Singapore (see the program highlights here).
It was also great to see rather full grandstands. I heard on Kangaroo TV that the organizers failed to sell only about 6,000 tickets. The grandstands at turns 1,2 and 3 were pretty full except the seats at at and towards the corner between the Turn 1 and Turn 2 grandstands. I think those are the worst seats at that rather expensive area, perhaps that is the reason for them to remain empty…
We may argue if the race itself was exciting or boring. We had the safety car, we had Mark Webber hitting the barrier, we had cars falling apart, we had Nico Rosberg throwing possible podium away. On the other hand we also had very little on track overtaking and Lewis Hamilton running away with the race. I have no idea how the race looks on TV. But live it is one of the best races to visit.

Police Capt. Paul Toussaint
ROCHESTER — The city's crime statistics — at least in the willful concealment line — have risen, but this may be a consequence of the city being a big box hub drawing shoppers from neighboring communities, and not the result of Rochester residents being outstandingly dishonest.A check of the Rochester Police Log, as published in the Rochester Times, from January through mid-August, shows that there were 151 people charged with willful concealment (the official term for shoplifting), but of that number only 65 had Rochester addresses (see accompanying chart). The actual number of Rochester arrestees may by closer to 70, as seven juveniles are included in the 151 figure, and those addresses are not divulged, but even so, this still means that fewer than half of willful concealments in Rochester are being committed by city residents.There is an adage in the local commercial world that people tend to "shop south," and that is also true of shoplifting. For example, there were twice the number of Farmingtonians (20) arrested for shoplifting, than people from Dover (4) and Somersworth (6) combined.
POLICE CHIEF Michael Allen
Meanwhile, large, popular stores like Walmart and Kohl's continue to draw shoppers from the greater Rochester area, and shoplifters among them, who, when caught by store security, are passed over to Rochester Police Department, usually along with video surveillance evidence. As the city's retail base increases with more planned developments on Route 11, for example, the expectation will be that incidences of willful concealment will also rise, placing further demands on police, prosecution and district court systems.Sgt. Michael Brinkman adds, "The Rochester Police would like to remind the public that shoplifting will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and that accordingly, RSA 637:3-a (g) states a person who has been twice convicted of shoplifting (637:3-a II) within a 36-month period shall be charged with a class B felony."Police Chief Mike Allen said that tackling shoplifting was a priority of his department this year."Nationwide, it is an epidemic that costs businesses and consumers hundreds of millions of dollars. In Rochester we are trying to take an innovative approach through enforcement, education and collaboration with businesses," he said. "We advise stores on surveillance equipment and no tolerance policies, and we hope, in the end, it will reduce the incidences of shoplifting and the strain on our resources."

In one week, 739 Americans lost their lives due to the weather. The American Journal of Public Health definitively established that the medical examiner's numbers actually undercounted the mortality by about 250 since hundreds of bodies were buried before they could be autopsied. From the moment the local medical examiner began to report mortality figures, political leaders, journalists, and in turn the public actively denied the disaster's significance and questioned whether the deaths were - to use the popular phrase - "really real." It was 1995 and there was a Democrat in the White House.
There was no blame on global warming, despite the fact a heat wave was the cause.
There were no charges of racism, though deaths were concentrated in the low-income, elderly, African-American, and violent regions of the metropolis.
There was no questioning of the President or his response, despite an inadequate local heat wave warning system, power failures, inadequate ambulance service and hospital facilities, and city officials did not release a heat emergency warning until the last day of the heat wave.
There were no calls for Congressional inquiries, even though long before 1995, American public-health officials warned of the dangers of extreme summer weather.
After cities including Philadelphia, St. Louis, and Chicago itself experienced heat disasters in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began prodding government agencies to develop plans for preventing heat-related casualties. But few cities took this advice seriously. Chicago's Health Department shelved its heat-emergency plan in the office's back regions.
The Chicago Heat Wave was dubbed "one of the greatest and least-known American disasters in modern history."
There was certainly a lot of heat… but not on the President. Where was the outrage? Where was the concern? Where was the blame?

The 13th edition of the Giro d' Italia was presented today and one pleasant surprise was that the overall distance to be covered has been shortened from previous years.
The stage race will be run over 10 days when previously there were 14 days, and go into 4 Regions; the change was made to provide a better spectacle without "damaging riders health" quote Guiseppe Rivolta. A new feature will be the second stage which is based on the men's Coppa Sabatini and the first mountain top finish will be on stage 3 to Cascina. There will be just one time trial which is on stage 6 and covers 19.5 km; it will have an uphill finish which was used for the Italian Time Trial Championship in 1997.
Perhaps the decisive stage will be stage 8 with the climb of Villa Vergano. Listed favourites include Fabiana Luperini, Nicole Brandli, Zinaida Staburskana and Allessandra Cappellotto.
The Giro starts on 5 July

Operating Guidelines
While the Bio-Circle parts cleaning system is very effective and easy-to-use, the following tips will help you get the most out of your system:
Leave the unit plugged-in and turned on at all times
For the remediation of oil and grease to take place and maintain peak cleaning performance, the cleaning fluid must be heated and aerated permanently. The fluid pump however, should be turned off after cleaning.
Do not introduce disinfectants, bleach, solvents, acids or chlorinated substances into the system
These substances will prevent the bioremediation process and substantially reduce the cleaning performance.
Maintain the fluid at an optimum level
Don't wait for the low liquid level light to turn on before adding Bio-Circle L. Never add water. Always keep the fluid level to the top level line molded into the tank wall.
Use a brush that is suited to the shape of the part being cleaned
The combination of heat and mechanical action delivers a solvent-like performance. When cleaning greasy parts, use your brush with a scooping motion to lift the grease from the surface so it can be flushed away by the stream of cleaning fluid.
Pour cleaning solution over the sink, the brush and the part before cleaning
Bio-Circle L will act just like an anti-spatter and prevent grease and grime from sticking so your equipment stays clean longer and your parts become cleaner faster.
Remove excess oil and grease from your parts before cleaning
Even though the Bio-Circle system has been designed to effectively handle heavy-duty parts cleaning applications, 'dumping' large quantities of oil and grease into the system will reduce its performance.
Do not leave parts inside the sink after cleaning
Bio-Circle L temporarily protects steel parts from corrosion but the humidity inside the sink could cause corrosion-sensitive steels to flash rust. Since parts are cleaned to bare metal, after cleaning, wipe your parts dry or use compressed air to remove fluid from blind holes and inside corners. To protect parts before storage, apply Omni™.
Use only Bio-Circle L liquid in the system
For the liquid to effectively clean and digest contaminants, use only Walter Bio-Circle L (55-A 007) liquid in the system. Never add other liquids. Furthermore, to maintain peak performance, it is recommended to remove any sludge accumulation once a year and at this time to replace the cleaning solution. Use cleaning kit 55-B 020 to make this preventive maintenance easier.

So what's the deal with the Wii U Virtual Console anyway?It's frustrating to see yet another week go by without any sort of announcement in regards to the Wii U eShop -- whether it's new games, or most notably, Virtual Console support. It's easy to see that the Wii U eShop has a lot of potential. Playing classic games on your Wii U GamePad would be a dream. Buying a game on the 3DS eShop and having said games link to your Wii U account would literally eat me out of house and home. Let's just say this: if Nintendo announces GameCube VC games, and I'm able to play Super Mario Sunshine solely on the GamePad, you may never see me again. Make it happen, Nintendo, and be more forthright with your development of it. Comments not appearing? Anti-virus apps like Avast or some browser extensions can cause this.

Board members for Pueblo Child Advocacy Center say child abuse is on a sharp increase this fall. The center typically helps around 200 children a year, but in the past three months that number has doubled.
The center held a Run or Ride fundraiser Sunday morning at the Pueblo Memorial Airport. Walkers, cyclists and runners all came out for some exercise and to make a donation.
Board member Janice Williams can't say for sure that the economy is causing the spike in abuse, but she suspects it plays a big part.
"With the economy; parents are stressed, families are stressed, and a lot of times they take it out on the children," Williams said.
She is hoping to raise about $5,000 because, she says, every penny will be crucial this year.

Chicagoist - A penny saved may be a penny earned, but what do you do when you've amassed a small copper fortune? If you're South Loop residents Emily Belden and Ryan Lange, you glue those pennies—all 59,670 of them—to the floor. The couple invested nearly $600 in pennies and has plated their bedroom floor entirely in Lincoln's striking profile. Lange and Belden have never lacked for original design sense. According to Belden, "We had renovated the rest of our condo with cool things like zebra-wood cabinets in the kitchen, marble subway tile in the bathroom, etc., but the bedroom floor just had a cement floor. It was the only space that was unfinished and we wanted to go big."
So they decided to live large on top of the country's smallest coin. Requiring 128 man and woman hours, the project became a true labor of love, one that involved its fair share of back pain. But the process wasn't entirely monotonous, mostly because the pennies themselves possess both aesthetic and historical variations. For example, the couple discovered an Indian head penny from the 1800s before Lincoln became president. They also made an exception to their heads-only rule and turned the pennies tails side when they encountered any wheat pennies, which were minted between 1909 and 1958 and feature two crescent sheaves of wheat on the Lincoln obverse.
How about these hipsters trying to find some sort of silver lining to this stupid fucking thing. We discovered an Indian head penny from the 1800′s! We found some wheat pennies from last century with different designs on the back! Well whoop dee doo you fuckin' idiots! Try and sell me on that sentimental shit all you want, I'll be focusing on the fact that you just wasted $600, 128 hours of your life, and probably blew out the L4 and L5 in your spinal column on a gay art project creating what is undoubtedly the most useless bedroom floor on the planet. Can't wait until you pull the Dirt Devil out of the closet and suck up $17.68 of unglued copper vacuuming that piece of shit.
PS – These are the worst people to meet at parties. Talking your ear off for half an hour about their penny floors and zebra coated kitchen cabinets. I'd rather beat myself over the head with a crow bar than talk to people like this.

Builder pattern in Objective-C
1 November 2011
Over the past few months I've spent a fair bit of time on a project using my MacBook Pro for development. This got me to run CCMenu again and, perhaps predictably, made me work on that in the evenings. While doing some long overdue refactorings I came across the need to construct domain objects in unit tests. So far I had used simple helper methods in the unit test itself, but the Java/Scala project I was on during the day made heavy use of the Builder pattern with fluent interfaces, and that got me thinking.
In the end I've come up with three variations of the Builder pattern in Objective-C, all of which have their pros and cons. In this post I want to show these patterns and invite comments on which one you prefer.

On the Blu-ray discs
Firefly has a picture that's a little softer than most Blu-ray discs (especially in the effects shots), but it is an improvement over the DVDs (even in an upconverting DVD player or Blu-ray player), and the punchy sound (DTS HD 5.1 compared to the DVDs' 2.0 surround) is a definite upgrade. In addition to the original bonus features, there are a couple new ones: a 25-minute conversation among Whedon, Nathan Fillion, Ron Glass, and Alan Tudyk in which they discuss the series and a number of specific episodes (Fillion recalls thinking he was getting fired after the first episode), and a new commentary track by the four fellows on "Our Mrs. Reynolds." And since it's easy to get sucked into watching multiple episodes, it's nice to have a Play All feature on the BDs. --David Horiuchi

Those frustrated with their morning commute on Columbia Pike aren't likely to see relief come until the spring.
The backups that have caused rush hour delays for drivers going eastbound on Columbia Pike in the morning are likely due to the temporary traffic pattern that makes cars turn left to get on northbound I-395, Virginia Department of Transportation spokeswoman Jenni McCord said. The temporary traffic pattern shift is expected to be in place for the next six months.
After that time, the traffic will again go back to using a right exit off Columbia Pike to get on the interstate in the direction of D.C.
The complete project's end date is Sept. 14, 2015.
The left turn isn't the only headache Pike drivers will have to deal with as the $48.5 million construction of the Washington Blvd bridge over Columbia Pike continues. Scheduled to start in early December, McCord said, S. Queen Street will be closed to traffic at Columbia Pike for six months. "Local traffic will enter/exit Arlington View and Carrington Village via S. Quinn or S. Rolfe Streets," McCord said.
On Washington Blvd, the temporary signal at the Columbia Pike exit ramp has been removed, and crews will be pouring the concrete deck for the second bridge on Monday after steel beams were installed in September, McCord said. There will continue to be daytime lane closures in the area until the project is complete in a year.
File photo
(Updated at 11:40 a.m.) Starting today, drivers heading eastbound on Columbia Pike toward I-395 will be following a new traffic pattern.
Drivers heading toward northbound I-395 will now turn left at the traffic signal on S. Quinn Street and bear right to merge onto the interstate, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation. Those going south will drive through the intersection with S. Quinn Street and use the ramp on the right.
That's a change from before, when northbound and southbound traffic could both take the ramp. VDOT workers will be on the road today making the switch, which is expected to be complete by 5:00 p.m.
VDOT also announced that Columbia Pike will be closed to drivers between S. Queen Street and Orme Street each of the next three weekends as workers demolish the old Washington Blvd overpass. The closure will begin at 9:00 p.m. tomorrow night until 4:30 a.m. Monday, Feb. 3, and it will be closed again at the same times Feb. 7-10 and Feb. 14-17.
The demolition is the next phase in the $51.5 million Washington Blvd improvement project, still slated to be finished in the summer of 2015.

Northbound traffic on Washington Blvd is now going over the newly-constructed overpass over Columbia Pike.
The bridge, which has been under construction since 2012, was built to replace the previous structure. The old bridge was built in the 1940s as part of the original Pentagon Roadway Network and had been in "poor condition," according to VDOT.
Construction on the project is still expected to wrap up at some point in 2015, according to VDOT's project website.
Lane closures will continue on Columbia Pike into 2014 while the new bridge is finished and the old bridge is demolished. Demolition is expected to happen as soon as January.
A major closure of Columbia Pike is planned this coming weekend due to bridge construction.
The road will be closed between S. Quinn Street and S. Orme Street from 9:00 p.m. Friday, Aug. 2 to 4:00 a.m. Monday, Aug. 5, the Virginia Department of Transportation announced today. The closure is part of the ongoing Washington Blvd interchange project.
VDOT is building a new bridge for Washington Blvd over Columbia Pike, a $51.5 million project that's expected to be completed by summer 2015. This latest closure will allow crews to place steel beams for the new bridge over the Pike. Subsequent closures will be needed during the demolition of the old bridge.
Columbia Pike traffic will be able to get around the closure by following the on-ramps to Washington Blvd to a temporary traffic signal. More detailed detour information, from VDOT:
- Columbia Pike traffic, including pedestrians and bicyclists, will be detoured around the work area to a temporary signal at Washington Boulevard.
- Northbound Washington Boulevard to westbound Columbia Pike will be detoured to Second Street South interchange and back to Columbia Pike via South Courthouse Road.
- Southbound Washington Boulevard to eastbound Columbia Pike will turn left at the temporary signal on Washington Boulevard and follow the detour back to Route 244.
- South Queen Street will be closed at its intersection with Columbia Pike.
Construction will close the righthand lane of eastbound Columbia Pike in the area of the Washington Boulevard bridge through 2014.
VDOT will close the lane as soon as tomorrow as part of the ongoing Washington Boulevard bridge and interchange project. Drivers should expect new traffic patterns on eastbound Columbia Pike as a result.
"Motorists in the right lane must take the exit ramp to Washington Boulevard," VDOT said in a press release. "Motorists on eastbound Columbia Pike can use the left lane to continue east or to access the ramp to Washington Boulevard."
The closure is expected to be in place through 2014. The overall project is expected to be completed in the summer of 2015.

Daytime lane closures will begin this week for the Washington Boulevard bridge project.
The three year, $51.5 million project will ultimately result in the construction of a new, wider Washington Boulevard bridge over Columbia Pike, complete with a reconfigured ramps, additional bridge clearance and a new shared use path along Columbia Pike. To help facilitate the construction, daily lane closures on Washington Boulevard will start this week.
"Drivers can expect single lane closures daily on Washington Boulevard in both directions from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m.," VDOT said in a press release. "Drivers can also expect periodic traffic shifts, the first this summer to new temporary pavement crews will construct over the next few months."
VDOT also announced additional closures Tuesday night.
"On Tuesday, May 15, crews will close a lane in each direction from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m. between I-395 and the entrance to Fort Myer," the press release said. "Beginning at midnight, crews will also stop traffic for up to 30 minutes at a time on southbound Washington Boulevard just prior to the ramp to Columbia Pike to remove an overhead sign structure. Drivers should use an alternate route on this night if possible."
The Washington Boulevard bridge carries more than 80,000 vehicles over Columbia Pike every day, according to VDOT.
In addition to the closures on Washington Boulevard, Columbia Pike will be completely closed up to five weekends per year to allow for bridge demolition and other work.
"These closures will begin after rush hour Friday evening and reopen by rush hour on Monday morning," VDOT said. "Traffic will be rerouted between S. Quinn Street and S. Orme Street around the north side of the intersection. Message signs will notify motorists of these closures in advance."
Construction crews are on site as a large scale construction project on Washington Boulevard and Columbia Pike begins. The Washington Boulevard bridge will be replaced, and the interchange with Columbia Pike will be revamped.
The project has been about two decades in the making, and VDOT spokeswoman Joan Morris says it finally got underway this week. Right now, it's still in the very preliminary stages while workers set up a field office and work out logistics.
The revamp is supposed to have eight stages, and is slated to run through August 2015. Once the first stage gains steam, a detour will be constructed for use on certain weekends. VDOT says traffic may need to be re-routed during off-peak hours, but efforts will be made to keep lanes clear during the morning and evening rush hours on weekdays.
The project is budgeted to cost $51.5 million, with federal and state funds paying for most of it.
Get ready for major construction on a new Washington Boulevard/Columbia Pike interchange and bridge.
Starting this spring — as soon as final regulatory approvals are issued — crews will begin work on the first of eight construction phases that will stretch through August 2015. During that first phase, a detour will be constructed, using the north interchange ramps to provide a signalized, at-grade intersection on Washington Boulevard.
That detour is expected to be used for 3 to 5 weekends per year, starting this summer, when crews need to shut down Columbia Pike for demolition of the existing Washington Boulevard bridge and construction of a pair of new spans, just east of the existing bridge. The detour will also include facilities for pedestrians.
During the week and on weekends when the detour is not in place, the project contractor has promised to keep existing travel lanes and pedestrian access open during construction, with the possible exception of one eastbound lane of the Pike.
By next fall one of the new Washington Boulevard bridge spans should be in place. We're told that bridge will be able to carry all four lanes of Washington Boulevard in a temporary configuration while the existing bridge is torn down and the second span is built in its place.
The VDOT-led construction project is budgeted at $51.5 million, which will be paid for primarily with federal and state funds.
The project has been nearly 20 years in the making, but VDOT has finally nailed down rough a construction schedule for the Washington Boulevard bridge over Columbia Pike.
At a community meeting on Tuesday, VDOT project manager Christiana Briganti-Dunn said land acquisition and construction is expected to begin this spring and will be complete by Aug. 2015. The $51.5 million project is being paid for primarily with federal and state funds, although Arlington is expected to contribute about $1 million for utility relocation and upgrades.
The project will replace the crumbling Washington Boulevard bridge, which dates back to the 1940s, and replace it with a new, wider span that will be dubbed the Freedman's Village Bridge, in honor of the enclave of freed slaves that was established nearby in 1863 and remained until the 1890s.
The new, wider bridge will allow a turn lane to be placed in between the four existing lanes of Columbia Pike. It will also allow for a 10-foot mixed-use path next to the westbound lanes, and the possible future addition of dedicated bicycle lanes. The design of the bridge was elevated by couple of inches to accommodate the planned Columbia Pike streetcar, Briganti-Dunn added.
Another planned change is the addition of two traffic lights on Columbia Pike, at the intersection with two sets of reconfigured Washington Boulevard ramps. The intersection of S. Quinn Street and Columbia Pike will be reconfigured as a one-way only entrance into the Arlington View neighborhood, and the traffic light there will be moved to the intersection of Columbia Pike and N. Queen Street, where reconfigured ramps onto and off of eastbound Washington Boulevard will converge.
There's some good news and some not-so-good news to report for people who regularly travel over or under the Washington Boulevard bridge.
The good news is that both thoroughfares will remain open during construction of the new Washington Boulevard bridge, a three-year process that's expected to begin next fall. Plus, all original travel lanes on each will be open during rush hour and during certain special events and federal holidays.
The bad news is that during the day, during construction, the re-routing of Columbia Pike traffic around the bridge may get a bit funky and cause some delays. The contractor selected to undertake the project will ultimately be able to design their own traffic management scheme, but the plan initially envisioned by VDOT involves directing Columbia Pike traffic up the existing ramps to a makeshift stop light on Washington Boulevard, turning Washington Boulevard and Columbia Pike into a four-way intersection.
"[The contractor] will need to demonstrate to [VDOT] that they will be able to adequately maintain the traffic demand," said VDOT senior engineer Christiana Briganti-Dunn.
Residents who live in the area can breathe easier, however, since VDOT says it will not consider any plan that routes traffic onto neighborhood streets. Also, the intersection of Queen Street and Columbia Pike will remain open during construction, we're told.
"We don't want to adversely affect neighborhood streets with detours," Briganti-Dunn said. "We want the least disturbance possible."
The project, which will cost an estimated $59 million, will ultimately result in the demolition of the crumbling, 65-year-old Washington Boulevard bridge, likely in late 2014 or in 2015.

Reports » India
Indian stock market and companies daily report (March 27, 2014, Thursday)
The Indian Markets are expected to open on a flattish note tracking flat opening in SGX Nifty and negative opening in most of the Asian markets.
US markets finished lower on Wednesday after mid-afternoon selling intensified when President Barack Obama, in a speech in Brussels, called for further economic sanctions against Russia over its annexation of Crimea. The Commerce Department's report on durable goods orders indicated that the durable goods orders surged up by 2.2% in February following a revised 1.3% decrease in January, however, when excluding a jump in orders for transportation equipment, durable goods orders inched up by just 0.2% in February compared to estimates for a 0.3% increase. Meanwhile, European markets rallied on Wednesday, extending recent gains amid renewed talk about monetary stimulus from the European Central Bank.
Indian markets ended a choppy session modestly higher on Wednesday, with sentiment underpinned by continued foreign fund inflows and firm global cues. FIIs invested around US$2.5bn in Indian equities over the past one month on growing expectations that a stable pro-reform government at the Centre will be able to push through reforms.
Markets Today
The trend deciding level for the day is 22,096 / 6,603 levels. If NIFTY trades above this level during the first half-an-hour of trade then we may witness a further rally up to 22,171 - 22,248 / 6,626 - 6,650 levels. However, if NIFTY trades below 22,096 / 6,603 levels for the first half-an-hour of trade then it may correct 22,020 - 21,944 / 6,579 - 6,556 levels.
Indian Court panel recommends resumption of mining in Goa
A panel of Indian Court has recommended to resume mining in Goa with certain conditions and lower production. Mining in Goa has been banned in Goa since October 201 2. The iron ore mining capacity has been recommended with a cap of 20mn tonnes which is 40% lower than Goa's FY2012 production. Supreme Court is likely to accept most recommendations in our view. However, resumption of mining in Goa is unlikely to affect domestic iron ore pricing as the Goan low-grade is mainly meant for exports.
Sesa Sterlite is likely to be a beneficiary once the mining resumes in Goa. However, the clearances of regulatory hurdles (permissions, R&R etc) are likely to take their own time (as witnessed in Karnataka) in our view. Moreover, there is no clarity on the quantum of production capacity limit recommended for Sesa Sterlite's iron ore mining. We await further clarity on this matter. Until then, we maintain our estimates and Accumulate rating on the stock.
Infosys gives salary hike of 4-10% from April 1, 2014
As per media reports, Infosys has given salary increments of 4% - 10% for employees between job levels 2 and 6. The increments will be effective April 1, 2014. Level 2 comprises junior employees, including non-engineering graduates and customer support executives, and level 6 are project managers and senior project managers. In February, the company had said it would give an average of 5% to 7% salary increase for employees between job levels 2 and 6.
In the last two years, increments were delayed, following the company's mediocre performance. Last year it was given effective from July, soon after Mr. Narayana Murthy's return to the company. The year before that it was given in October. Mr. Murthy had recently stated that the company would return to the April-March cycle this year. Last year, there was an average ~8% increase in salaries for employees in India and ~3% for those based overseas. Given that and the company's objective to revert to April cycle, we had already factored wage hikes from April 1, 2014 (7% offshore and 2% onsite). We maintain our Accumulate rating on the stock with a target price of Rs.3570.
J&J Pharmaceuticals resumes the supply of Doxil
J&J Pharmaceuticals has resumed the supply of Doxil (doxorubicin Hcl liposome injection) by manufacturing it through an alternative manufacturing approach. As per the new approach, J&J will source the bulk product from the Ben Venue plant, while another manufacturer will make the finished product. The new approach has not been approved by the US FDA. However, the launch has been facilitated with US FDA regulatory discretion. As a result, the supply has been restricted to one lot of Doxil 20 mg/10 ml vials. The re-entry of J&J into the market is negative for Sun Pharmaceuticals. In the absence of the innovator, Sun was enjoying sole player status in the Doxorubicin Hcl liposome injection market. However, given, the only generic in the place, the company should not face much pressure, thus we expect that the event, would have a marginal impact on the Sun Pharmaceuticals numbers. We remain neutral on the stock.

Follow Up: Error Proofing my Keurig?

This really cracked me up… as you can see, green arrow up = good. Red arrow up = bad.
As was pointed out by a Twitter follower, when I shared this there, the color coding wouldn't work for those who are color blind, which I'm not. The mug also has the Lean Blog logo to help tell if the mug's right side up or not. As far as I know, my mug is a one of a kind. Thanks, Mike!

More Play – Free upgrade for VoiceLive Play and Play GTX
We're proud to announce the "More Play – Direct Effects Control & Preset Mega-Pack", a free firmware update to VoiceLive Play and Play GTX offering more presets, more looping time and more control.
You spoke and we listened. Since we released VoiceLive Play in January it has become one of our most popular units, and you've had tons of feedback for us on how to improve the functionality of it and its big brother, VoiceLive Play GTX. The requests have been many but most have revolved around adding more control, more looping time, and more presets to the machine. So, we have done just that.
More presets
A whopping 500 new presets awaits in our biggest preset pack ever. Covering all styles and genres, it should be enough to keep any singer happy for a long, long time. Discover your sound via the songs you like, or go on a random walk of presets for inspiration.
More looping
Everyone likes to loop, so we've expanded the original 15 seconds of looping to a full 60 seconds, still with infinite overdubs, of course. Extra looping time requires Mono output mode and "undo" off.
More control
Add a Switch-3 pedal to your VoiceLive Play or Play GTX and you've got an entirely different beast at your feet. Direct access to looping, tap tempo, guitar boost (only on Play GTX), on/off control of all effects with momentary options for harmony and delay, custom programming of the footswitches, and more, means no compromise and no holds barred when performing live. With this update adding the Switch-3 makes all the difference.
How to get the update
Just connect your Play unit to your computer via the supplied USB cable and fire up the VoiceSupport app to 1) update the firmware and 2) start draggin' and droppin' the presets to your Play or Play GTX unit. Switch-3 is sold separately.
Since the preset pack is so large, we suggest selecting presets individually and moving them to your device.
The episode of Craig's Corner below suggests some ways to manage the large preset pack within VoiceSupport.
With such a large group of presets we thought you could use a list to find what you're looking for. There are 3 columns showing: Original Artist, Original Title, Preset Name.
Download the More Play A-Z Preset List HERE
If you need help on how to use VoiceSupport you can download the manual HERE.
Update Features:
- 500 new factory presets
- 60 seconds of looping time
- Expanded control options with Switch-3:
– On/off control of all effects
– Direct access to tap tempo
– Guitar boost for Play GTX
– Custom programming of switch functions
– Momentary delays and harmonies mode
- Footswitches now increment/decrement Tap Tempo when Tap window is active (press/hold to scroll)
- Reduced 2-button (enter loop or set key mode) hold time based on user suggestion
- Added guitar Reverb decay parameter
- Added Delay "filter styles" to guitar
- Added uMod speed control for voice
- Added low-cut filter to RoomSense mics to improve performance/clarity in bass-heavy environments (adjustable in setup menu)
Bug Fixes:
- fixed Harmony Key/Scale not applied to HardTune "CorrectNatural" style
- fixed preset naming bug that would replace deleted characters incorrectly

The HD Hero2 is a pocket-sized camcorder made to capture HD video in extreme circumstances.
When placed in its plastic housing the camera can take some serious punishment, with many examples on YouTube showing the camera falling out of cars, crashing with the bike rider and other mayhem.
It can also take extremes in temperature, with a battery warmer to keep you shooting in cold climates.
We take a look at the HD Hero2's:
The camera itself is a simple block (42mm x 60mm x 30mm) weighing less than 100g with three buttons, three connections and a fixed-focus lens with the ability to capture video at 170 and 127 degree wide angle in 1080p resolution and a narrow 90 degree field of view at 720p.
CHOICE tested the motorsports pack (all packs are the same price), which includes a suction cup bracket mount and several arms and screws to place the camera in the best position when attached to the helmet, side of the car or whatever flat surface you could imagine.
If you want to use your helmet, skateboard, bike etc for extended videoing, a selection of additional bracket bases with 3M tape are included.
The outdoor edition has straps and wearable brackets instead of the suction cup mount, while the surf edition has a selection of mounts made to stick to a surfboard as well as cases that can float.
In an effort to keep the durability at its highest level, the camera has very few parts that can snap off, shatter or otherwise break. An LCD viewer is an optional extra and very useful for framing a shot. However, if you plan on doing anything outrageous, shooting without the LCD viewer attached is recommended.
Although the company claims the menu controls are an improvement over the previous model, the controls on the HD Hero2 are simple yet often frustrating.
The various menu items, such as video, playback and still camera, are available as a button selection. Unfortunately, if you miss one selection you can't simply go back - instead you need to cycle through all the choices to get back to the appropriate menu. However, we suspect most users are willing to forgive the ease of use issues if it delivers the extreme video.
Our testers, including a group of teens hell-bent on making a funniest home video, soon realised that the suction bracket that comes with the motor kit needs a smooth surface or it falls off and tumbles along the road.
However, the mishap does illustrate the unit's durability when placed in the clear plastic mount. The camera can be attached in areas not normally the domain of the HD camcorder.
One session involved placing the camera on the side of a pool and another strapped to the pet dog (no animals were harmed in the making of this video).
Some of the more interesting features on offer include:
It's not the easiest camera to use, and when all the extras are added up its not cheap either, but it's a lot of fun to use and limited only by your imagination – and willingness to put yourself in crazy situations.
27 Sep 2013 | We review 21 of the latest high definition (HD) camcorders, including models from Sony, Canon, JVC, Panasonic and Samsung.
23 Sep 2011 | CHOICE's latest pocket camcorder review has test results for 15 models priced from $179 to $499.
29 Sep 2014 | In our latest digital camera test we review 156 compact digital cameras, priced from $87 to $749.
15 Feb 2012 | The JVC GC PX-10 looks like a still camera on steroids but performs well as a video camcorder.

Super Aguri F1 Team have announced an all-Japanese driver line-up for their debut Formula One season.
As expected, Takuma Sato will lead the team, following two seasons as Jenson Buttons partner at BAR Honda. He will be joined by Yuji Ide.
Satos best result came at Indianapolis at the 2004 US Grand Prix when he became the first Japanese driver in 14 years to stand on the podium after finishing third. Interestingly, the last Japanese driver to do that was
his new team principal Aguri Suzuki in Japan in 1990.
Ide will make his F1 debut in Bahrain. Little known outside Japan, he came second in the 2005 All Japan Championship Formula Nippon Series (the equivalent of Formula 3000), and since 2003 Yuji has driven in both the Formula Nippon and Super GT Series (formerly All Japan GT Championship) GT500 Class Series and has gained experience in French Formula 3 with the Signature team. He has also raced in the All Japan GT Championship GT300 Class, the All Japan F3 Championship and a number of Japanese national Kart Championships since his motorsport career began back in 1990.
"Everyone at Super Aguri has done a great job to make the team happen in such a short period of time," Sato said. "I am extremely excited to be working with the team and especially with Aguri-san who has achieved huge success in motorsport.
"Yesterday I was delighted to shake down the car for the very first time with all of the boys who have done such a great job. We know that there is a lot of hard work to do, but we are up for the challenge and I am really looking forward to it."
Sato's new driving partner Ide said: "This year will be very exciting and challenging. I would like to thank Suzuki-san for giving me the opportunity to drive in Formula One. I drove an F1 car for the first time yesterday and I was nervous, but very excited. The car is powerful! I would also like to thank the whole team for working so hard to get the car ready for yesterdays shakedown. We had no problems and now I am very much looking forward to testing in Barcelona next week."
On his return to Formula One, Suzuki commented: "I am grateful that these highly experienced drivers are joining my team. Although I expect a tough year as it is our first in Formula One, with these two drivers I will put all my efforts into creating a positive outcome."

When it comes to fitness, I will be the first to admit that I'm a tricky customer. I don't like running and I don't have any rhythm, so finding an activity where I don't look and feel like a hot mess is difficult. Lately, I've been obsessed with spinning, but I have been getting a little bit bored. So when I was invited to test out the latest outpost of SoulCycle in my NYC neighborhood, I will admit I was intrigued. The 45-minute class involved an intense 45-minute cardio workout that combines spinning with upper body toning using hand weights and core exercises. I'm happy to report the new studio is fabulous. Located on the corner of 77th Street and Amsterdam, the 1,900-square-foot, ground-level facility features a 54-bike studio, as well as a 300-square-foot SoulCycle Boutique. The studio also boasts 96 lockers, two bathrooms, and a changing room. I was a little nervous when I arrived this morning to try my first class, but after 45 minutes of fun music, total toning, and cool cardio, I am totally hooked. Can't wait for my next ride. For more on the new studio or to find a SoulCycle near you, visit www.soul-cycle.com.
