Leinster see off Edinburgh
Contepomi leads Irish province to crucial win in Pool Six
Felipe Contepomi's 18 points led Leinster to a 28-14 success over Edinburgh in Dublin on Friday evening.
Argentinean fly-half Contempomi scored the game-clinching try - Leinster's third - eight minutes from time and also booted three penalties and two conversions.
A bonus-point success looked on the cards for the hosts when tries from James Heaslip and Keith Gleeson helped them race into an 18-3 lead at half-time.
However, Edinburgh - who have yet to win in the Heineken Cup this season - got back in the game after the break with John Houston's try in the 45th minute.
And when substitute David Blair landed a long-range penalty in the 65th minute, the visitors had pulled back to 21-14 and appeared to have all the momentum.
But it was Contepomi who proved the match-winner when he crossed in the 72nd minute and added the conversion to seal the win for Leinster.
Fast start
Inside the opening minute, the video referee ruled that Leinster full-back Rob Kearney did not have full control when he attempted to touch down after beating Mike Blair in a race to the line for Shane Horgan's kick.
Opposing stand-offs Contepomi and Phil Godman traded early penalties but it was Leinster, with a strong wind aiding their cause, who dominated possession and territory during the opening stages.
The pressure eventually resulted in a try for the hosts after 15 minutes. A rolling maul was stopped just short but, from the next phase, No.8 Heaslip forced his way over from close range. Contepomi added the conversion for a 10-3 lead.
That was extended to 13-3 on 28 minutes with Contepomi's second penalty after Blair was penalised for entering at the side of a ruck in an effort to stall a promising Leinster attack.
And the hosts' second try arrived four minutes later when openside flanker Gleeson finished off a scintillating move in the right corner from an attack that began at a lineout on the opposite side of the field.
Contepomi failed with the touchline conversion attempt and Edinburgh held their deficit to 18-3 at half-time.
No problem for Houston
Edinburgh required a quick start to the second half and got just that when left winger Houston raced over for their first try on 45 minutes.
But Leinster retained an 18-8 advantage when Godman - who moments earlier had hooked a penalty attempt wide - was off-target with the conversion.
Edinburgh replacement Callum MacRae was then dispatched to the sin bin by referee Romain Poite after killing the ball in front of his own posts after Leinster hooker Bernhard Jackman was stopped just short.
Contepomi added the simple three points that set-up the perfect opportunity to go to work on Edinburgh's 14 remaining men. However, the Scottish side defied their numerical disadvantage with a penalty from Godman in the 58th minute.
And Godman's replacement David Blair - the younger brother of skipper and scrum-half Mike - landed another three points from long range in the 65th minute. At that point Edinburgh were 21-14 behind and looked capable of pulling off a shock result.
But Leinster's forwards regained control - prop Ollie Le Roux was stopped inches short and Heaslip knocked on as he attempted to force his way over.
The pressure finally told in the 72nd minute when Contepomi took the ball on a great angle and had enough pace to get himself across the whitewash.
He then added the conversion to cap a superb individual display and ensure his side remain in contention to reach the knockout phase.
The result moves Leinster to within one point of Toulouse at the top of Pool Six, although the French side have the opportunity to extend their advantage when they play Leicester at Welford Road on Saturday.

Originally designed around the frequency range of the human voice for peerless vocal accompaniment.
One of the most iconic instruments ever developed is the acoustic guitar. Whether it's being played onstage, around a campfire or in the living room, no one can deny the well-deserved popularity of this great instrument. When you're searching for a new guitar, you'll find a ton of options to choose from, so it's a sure thing that you can get something perfect for you no matter your experience level and preferences.
A great starting point along the way to choosing your guitar is to decide on the body type and style of instrument. This is going to depend on where you expect to play the guitar: for example, an auditorium, concert or orchestra model gives you classic sound for large performances. In a more intimate setting, a folk guitar could be a better option. And, if you're looking for a guitar with a big, commanding sound, you can't go wrong with a dreadnought.
Of course, one of the realities of acoustic guitars is that even the biggest ones have a limit on volume output. That's why, if you play really big venues or outdoor stages with sizeable crowds, it's a good idea to consider an acoustic-electric model. These are great because of their versatility - in normal circumstances, they're a regular acoustic, but when you need an added boost all you need to do is hook up an amp or PA system to get all the power you could ask for.
Are you looking to follow in the footsteps of your favorite guitar legend? If so, you should do yourself the favor of looking for a signature model. Instruments like the Tim Armstrong Hellcat Acoustic-Electric Guitar from Fender, or Epiphone's Dave Navarro Signature Model, are the perfect way to nail those artists' characteristic sounds in your own performances.
Whatever it is that you're looking for in a guitar, you can rest assured that it's represented here. The selection is as impressive as the individual instruments themselves, with everything from traditional 6-string dreadnoughts to jumbo 12-string powerhouses. For your next acoustic guitar, there's no better place to start (and finish) looking.

Google AdWords has brought in new some new local targeting choices for advertisers in 11 nations including the USA, Canada and 9 others. The new tweaking options include postal code targeting for Canada and switching to Nielsen DMAs for USA metropolitan areas. Location extensions and local targeting options have been given a welcome twist across the other 9 countries as well.
Google AdWords has launched a new feature called- Congressional District Targeting. This new feature has been developed keeping the upcoming elections in mind. This is because candidates (as well as regular people) can use this District Targeting to target their campaigns as per Congressional District. Google said, "Now, with congressional district targeting in AdWords, campaigns can quickly and easily target their search, display, mobile and video ads *solely* within that particular district's border. You can start by heading into AdWords and selecting your District number from the location menu populated with district information in simple Google Maps format, prepared by Azavea. Build your ad and you're on your way."
Google AdWords has added a Flexible Reach feature to the Google Display Network. This feature's settings will give the advertiser greater control of the ad group level settings. Google said, "The Networks and devices section of your Settings tab in AdWords will include a new targeting option called "Flexible reach." Flexible reach enables you to fine-tune where your ads show by choosing your settings at the ad group level instead of the campaign level. This will give you more control over where your ads appear and who sees them." In other words advertisers will be able to target better and will not have to create a separate campaign for each targeting method
Google has rolled out a new AdWords interface which is simpler and faster than before. The new look includes newly designed menus, tabs, navigation, and buttons. The new "Display Network Tab" makes it easier for SEO experts to manage display network campaigns within the Google Adwords interface. The interface has been made visually appealing while the sense of familiarity is maintained with the features remaining in their old positions.
Google is close to unveiling an improved AdWords with a redesigned interface. The new look is now under the preview mode and they're asking for feedback before introducing it finally.
Google programmers have taken an objective look on AdWords functionality asking 'How can we make it better?' It has resulted in the introduction of 'campaign types' which is a major change to functionality. The design philosophy is to keep the interface simple for a simple campaign.
Google AdWords has released an infographic answering the question- how do the travel advertisers prepare for the vacation season. The infographic shows five decision making stages of anyone's travel plans.
If advertisers can reach their target at any of these stages, then they are most likely to make a sale. What do you think of these stages? Do share your views.
Google has limited the ad rotation in Adwords to 30 days. Google announced that this change will come in effect next week. Once the 30 days are over, the ads will be optimized by AdWords to provide a list of ads doing well (top in converting and getting clicks).
Google AdWords has made some tweaks in the Keyword Tool and Traffic Estimator. The standalone Traffic Estimator has been retired and with the Keyword Tool changes, advertisers can now see keyword ideas with themes related to their keyword.
Google has made two improvements to the AdWords interface so that advertisers can manage their accounts better. The Quality Score for AdWords has had three components added; and account labels have been launched to streamline accounts by easier grouping of keywords, ads, ad groups and campaigns.
Quality Score will now be segregated into three components:
- Expected click-through rate
- Ad relevance
- Landing page experience
Google Adwords for Video program is out of the group testing phase and has been 'officially' launched. As the blog post on the YouTube blog said, now the paid search advertising model has been integrated with video content. Advertisers can now promote their businesses with new ad formats and bidding models. Advertising is expected to go to the next level by being targeted, affordable as well as measurable for businesses.

Spring Ahead
By Todd Nelson
The weather seems to be about as groggy as I feel today with that dreaded time change... Ugh! It always seems harder to 'spring' ahead than it does to 'fall' back, doesn't it? Not sure I'm a big fan of losing an hour, especially when it seems like there isn't enough time to get everything done as it is. The only nice thing about the change is that our sunsets will be one hour later now!
March is a big transition month for us. Not only do we see a significant increase in the amount of sunlight we get per day, but the strength of the sun increases dramatically too. This improvement helps to promote warming, which helps to eat away at our snowpack. Since 2003, the average date when the snow depth reached zero officially at the MSP Airport in spring was March 31st. Earliest was last year on March 7th and the latest was in 2008 on April 27.
Sunday's rain put a big dent in our current snow pack, which topped out at 13" officially last Wednesday. I wouldn't doubt it if by the end of the week we start seeing a few more brown spots on area lawns as snow continues to melt.
In the meantime, we'll have to keep puddle jumping, hope your feet stay dry! -Todd Nelson
Todd's Star Tribune Outlook for the Twin Cities and all of Minnesota:
SUNDAY: Waking up to a little slush? Sidewalks could be a little icy too. Windy, cooler. Few flurries. High: 30 Winds: North 10-20
SUNDAY NIGHT: A few lingering light snow showers possible, mainly south and east. Low: 19
MONDAY: Partly sunny and brisk. Wake-up: High: 31
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy, a cool wind with a flake or two possible. Wake-up: 19. High: 31
WEDNESDAY: Clipper, light mix? Wake-up: 18. High: 32
THURSDAY: AM shower, turning milder. Wake-up: 20. High: near 36
FRIDAY: Mix of clouds and sun. Wake-up: 24. High: 37.
SATURDAY: Partly sunny with a few sprinkles north? Low: 28. High: 39
A Bit Puddly
Thanks to my sister Michelle Musil for the picture below who noted a large puddle on Saturday afternoon. Thanks to an early March 'tournament' snowstorm and some recent mild weather/rain... puddles are showing up in neighborhoods near you! The Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport had a maximum snow depth on March 6th of 13" -- Midday Friday, that snow depth had dropped to 11" -- thanks to 0.40" of rain Friday night/AM Saturday, it had dropped to 8"
Flood Reports
With the recent heavy rains and rapid snow melt, there were a number of standing water reports. A few more 'substantial' reports came in from the St. Peter/Mankato area. Portions of hwy 169 near St. Peter were closed due to a mud slide.

Between its launch in Maranello and the opening flyaway rounds of the season, Ferrari introduced a number of important updates to their F138. This video guides you through the most significant, including a heavily revised front wing, repositioned exhaust exits, bodied driveshafts and...»
For the first time in Formula One racing, the two brake fluid cylinders (shown in the inset picture) have disappeared from view in the Red Bull RB9. This is because the team needed to save space in order to run the vertical ramp and slotted hole that feature on the top of the nose section. As you...»
Arguably one of the most relevant technical stories in Melbourne was Ferrari's choice not to use the inlet in the F138's nose and chassis (see main drawing). The Australian track is not considered to be as aerodynamically demanding as other circuits. The inlet (see inset) they could have used is...»
The two Williams drivers, Pastor Maldonado and Valtteri Bottas, tested two new exhaust solutions on Friday morning, eventually deciding to revert to the 'standard' version (red arrows) rather than a new configuration. A Red Bull-inspired floor section, featuring an inlet in the lower section of the...»
As a result of 2013's technical stability, a lot of research and time has been spent on the finer details, with brake ducts and suspension parts being used more and more as aerodynamic devices. In this drawing we can see how McLaren have used the first section of the top pick-up point to the upright...»

Tom Sturridge and Sienna Miller got into the Costume Institute Benefit's punk theme as they hit the red carpet together at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC on Monday night. Sienna covered up a white Burberry gown with a studded leather jacket by the same designer and even sported studs in her hair and on her ears.

We are both students. Frederik studies literature and is writing his thesis about a russian sing a song writher and I study geography. We love to travel and get to know new places and people.
Naja has completed online and offline ID verification.
Great appartment, great area Naja was so free to answer our questions Wonderful holidays !
Although this was our first expirience with AirBnb,it was a great time to stay in Naja's appartment. Small one but had everything we needed and felt like home. Naja was waiting for us to give us some directions and the key from the appartment. Thank you Naja.
We (four friends and I) rented Naja's flat for the easter weekend. It was the best choice we could make, we had a great time in Copenhaguen, although we were unable to meet Naja in person. Naja was however always available on the phone or by email to answer our questions. The flat is very cosy (you indeed fell like you are home) and its location is good with an easy access to a bus (that comes and goes very frequently) taking you to the center of Copenhaguen and to the subway (to/from the Airport).
We had a great stay at Naja's cozy apartment. It is nicely decorated and it feels like you're at home. It is also well located so getting from and to airport or main station is easy. The neighborhood is very quiet and in the nearby there are lots of shops, Turkish kebabs, bakeries and cafes. This was a greatl place to stay in Copenhagen!
The appartement is lovely and really well located ! A little cold on winter nights...but other than this everything was perfect! Thank you for the stay... If I am back in Copenhagen I would go back to the same appartment!
It was our first experience with AirBnB and I think we can't dream better. The appartment of Naja and Frederik is really warm and quiet. The situation in Norrebro was perfect, We rent bikes and it's 15 minutes from the center. Moreover Naja and Frederik give us a lot of very good advises : nice restaurants, design shops and nice places to visit. To resume, this is a very nice place!!!
We really enjoyed our stay at Naja's apartment. It was furnished comfortably and creatively. It really felt like a home away from home. We particularly enjoyed spending time on the top floor terrace. Naja was very friendly and quick to respond when we had questions during our stay. Norrebro is a little outside of the city center, so is a long walk but a pretty quick subway or bus trip.
We had a lovely stay at Najas Clean and tastefully decorated space with a great balcony I highly recommend Naja and her apartment Cheers! Linda
The Apartment is Relatively close to city center, We took the bus, walked , and rented bikes to get back and fourth. The apartment building and neighborhood was quiet. Wonderful accommodations, had everything we needed. Great location, friendly and (very) helpful hosts! Wish we could have stayed longer. Overall this was a wonderful place to stay with wonderful hosts!
My friends and I were very lucky that Naja and Frederik were going on vacation and rented us their great apartment. It's beautifully decorated, cosy, fresh, and practical. It was sunny in Copenhagen, so we enjoyed sitting on the terrace, and cooking dinner in the evenings while listening to music. When we arrived, everything was ready, and Naja even provided us with an extra mattress for an extra guest. I also think that the neighborhood (Norrebro) was the perfect spot for us. Cheaper than the city center, and definitely cooler and livelier. It has fun cafés, turkish and arab shops, helpful and interesting people on the bus and in the streets... The center is about 15 minutes away by bus. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and a big part of it was thanks to the apartment.
Naja e i suoi amici sono stati davvero perfetti! Sono arrivati puntuali all'appuntamento e sono stati subito entusiasti della casa. Quando sono partiti mi hanno mandato un sms per avvisarmi. In casa dopo la loro partenza ho trovato la casa in ordine, cucina perfetta, nessun piatto da lavare, lenzuola e asciugamani usati tutti in un angolo. Davvero gentili a prendersi tutto questo disturbo. Inoltre hanno lasciato una bellissima rosa sul tavolo e un biglietto di ringraziamento. Gli ospiti perfetti! Sono stati i miei primi ospiti perchè ho appena cominciato con Airbnb e sono davvero molto contenta. Grazie Naja! siete stati perfetti, nulla da dire. Grazie per la vostra estrema gentilezza! Verrò di sicuro da voi a Copenaghen

PM Meeting With Prime Minister Mark Rutte
Prime Minister David Cameron met the Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte to discuss Europe and the situation in Ukraine
Published on 22 February 2014 |
by Prime Minister's Office, 10 Downing Street
London, England
No. 10 Downing Street
A Number 10 spokesperson said:
"The Prime Minister and Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, met this afternoon at Chequers before an informal dinner.
"Their discussions focused on EU affairs: specifically how to reform Europe to make it drive economic growth.
"Ahead of this year's European Parliament elections and the appointment of new Presidents of the Council and Commission, they agreed that it is important to set out priorities for the European Union for the rest of the decade. They agreed we should complete the single market and do more at the appropriate level, following the Dutch dictum 'Europe if necessary, national when possible'. They also discussed the need to tackle the abuse of free movement and to explore future co-operation in this area.
"They also discussed the situation in Ukraine. Today's agreement is a chance to end the bloodshed and to put the country on the path to peace and stability and all sides must seize this opportunity and stand by their commitments.
"The Prime Minister said that we had appreciated the specialist flooding assistance provided by Dutch companies, particularly in the Somerset levels. And they agreed that, as the government considers how to strengthen our resilience to flooding, there would be opportunities for Dutch and British authorities to share ideas and experience.
"Finally, they congratulated each other on both countries enjoying their best performance ever at a Winter Olympics."

Finishing Poinsettias Cooler
High fuel costs have our industry searching for opportunities to lower the thermostat, and poinsettias provide a unique opportunity for reducing greenhouse fuel inputs. Initially, the options may appear to be limited since poinsettias have historically not grown well at cooler temperatures. However, poinsettia has several attractive features. First, the scheduling and marketing calendar is identical from year to year. This makes it easier to compare data from previous years to determine how a current crop is progressing. Second, cooler temperatures can be compensated for by adding time to the front of the schedule. This is not usually a problem since greenhouse space is often available during the summer. Third, several new cultivars are extremely early to flower and thus a one- or two-week delay in flowering may be ideal for hitting the peak market dates. In 2006, experimental trials were conducted at four greenhouses situated in different parts of the […]

NEW YORK (AP) — They frolic in empty boxes and stick their heads under faucet streams of water. They dance on tippy toes and fly through the air with Pop-Tarts. They play piano wearing little frocks and get tickled to distraction to the delight of millions on YouTube.
I speak, of course, of the cat stars of the Internet, a place filled with felines and their wacky uploading humans since the dawn of bandwidth. Now, after years of viral viewing, they're coming into their own in lucrative and altruistic ways.
The first Internet Cat Video Film Festival drew a Woodstock-esque crowd of more than 10,000 — people, that is — to a Minneapolis art museum in August. Police closed a span of highway clogged with cars trying to get to the Walker Art Center for the free outdoor slate of 80 videos culled from 10,000 submissions that covered the simple, funny moment to polished animations and works made by trained filmmakers.
"People were spilling out into the streets. It kind of took our breath away. You hit the people that are the cat lovers but you also get people who just like sharing something on the Internet, and it kind of reaches across age groups," said the museum's Scott Stulen, who worked on the festival and helped curate entries.
Corporate kittydom is happy with the higher profile for the cat meme, which actually goes back to the '70s, when swapping VHS tapes was big and the word meme was barely known. It means, by the way, all the crazy, viral themes that spread online faster than you can say nom, nom, nom (cat-vid speak for the sound of a cat eating.)
In addition to the Walker's free night in cat video heaven, Fresh Step litter sponsored Catdance, an evening of felines on screen that coincided with January's Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. A fan-voted winner among five scripted finalists — 10 films were commissioned at the launch of the program — will earn $10,000 after online voting ends later this month.
In November, Friskies gave a lifetime achievement statue to angsty existentialist Henri, le Chat Noir, at the brand's own awards ceremony and donated 250,000 cans of cat food to shelters around the country. Henri, the troubled Tuxedo, won another statue in Minneapolis and will soon begin a collaboration of food-focused videos with Friskies.
Oh, and Henri's putting out his first book in April.
Roly poly Maru, the megastar in Japan with millions of views for nearly 300 videos since 2007, has three books and a calendar, among other swag for sale. The squishy-faced, often blissed-out Scottish fold who loves boxes and bags was used by Uniqlo when the Japanese brand launched its San Francisco store in October. Maru chose boxes, called "Lucky Cubes," stuffed with giveaways for human contest winners.
Not to be outdone, Simon's Cat, a funny feline in a series of line-drawn animated videos out of London, has a book and an online store, as does Henri, who lends his fame and some of his dollars to cat charities.
Even the funny faced Grumpy Cat, whose real name is Tardar Sauce, coughs up some bucks to animal welfare groups, while captions for her still photos fly around the Internet and she sells T-shirts off her website. She put out some videos after her existence as a living, breathing and not digitally altered feline was questioned, according to her site.
So why cats?
Cats are fluffy and unpredictable and usually kept behind closed doors, which lends them allure and appeal that other common pets — I'm talking to you, dogs! — don't seem to have when it comes to vapid, funny or deranged video. At least that's what cat fans think.

what are my other pain relief options besides the epidural during?
Comments (4)
Are you looking for medicinal or natural relief?
I just had a post about a favorite website of mine: givingbirthnaturally.com. They have a lot of good ideas for coping with pain. Even if you're planning on doing some sort of medicinal pain reliefe, it would still be wise to know how to cope w/ the pain naturally, in case the meds don't work. (Not to scare you, just being practical) :)
For what it's worth, I'm with you on the epidurals. :/ I know LOTS of women have done them and loved them, but I read through a handout my sister received from her hospital and decided that I'd take the pain of labor of the risk of any of those side affects, even if they were rare.
If you're interested in trying a med-free or minimially-medicinal birth, do some research on natural childbirth. If it's any encouragement, I'm on baby #5 and have never taken a drop of anything. Yeah, it hurts, but it's worth it!
Good luck! :)
One amazing husband,
Six kids in my arms,
Two babies in my heart.
...and yes, life gets crazy. We love it. :)
God is good - wait on Him ~ Psalms 127:3
There are IV medications. They don't take away the pain as much make you not care about it. But I think if you are wanting to avoid an epidural, you should look into natural options.
Bug is A Boy!

When Garin Higgins took over Emporia State's football program in 2006, there was little success to promote.
So, the Blackwell native turned to Oklahoma high schools for recruiting.
When Garin Higgins took over Emporia State's football program in 2006, there was little success to promote.
So, the Blackwell native turned to Oklahoma high schools for recruiting.
Eight recruiting classes later and with a much more successful team on the field, Oklahoma is still a big recruiting stop for the Kansas Division II school. Ten players from Oklahoma signed with Emporia State almost two weeks ago.
"Now, first and foremost we do want to emphasize getting kids out of our own state," Higgins said. "Oklahoma football players have been good to us. There's a lot of reasons why we've turned this football program around, but these guys have been successful for us."
The Hornets were 9-2 last season, losing in the opening round of the Division II playoffs against Minnesota Duluth. In 2012, they went 10-2 and won the Kanza Bowl after finishing 5-6 the previous year.
That's the kind of success that has star players in Oklahoma choosing to head north instead of remaining close to home.
"I like it because we're gonna win up there," Carl Albert tight end Trenton Ball said about signing with the Hornets. "I know we're gonna be really good. The next couple years, we're gonna be amazing. Hopefully we'll get a national championship up there."
Star players alongside Ball like Guthrie's Kai Callins and Kingfisher's Landon Nault are joining a roster that already had 14 Oklahoma players on it last season.
"It tells you how much about that staff for them to come down here when those kids could go to Tahlequah and Edmond — which is a huge draw — and play football when they're going to Emporia and they want to win," said El Reno coach Taylor Schwerdtfeger, who played for Higgins and coached alongside him.

I decided to go for something new and different. I love Michelin in terms of sticky handling, but was concerned about their seemingly quicker than expected wear. Dunlop gave me the most durability and good traction but tended to slip out sometimes. So I thought I'd give the Pirelli Scorpions a shot. Bad decision. Two rides in and the back tire soon will need replacing likely after a third. Under heavy throttle, it breaks loose far sooner than any tire that's been on the bike, even the Bridgestones that came stock. Front tire gets better marks in terms of handling, and is wearing better than its rear counterpart. But neither tire comes close to the sticky feel of Michelins nor the great combination of good traction and bulletproof durability of the Dunlops. Save your money and skip the Pirellis. Every other tire I've had (Michelin, Dunlop and Bridgestone) is a far better buy and provides way more bang for the buck.

Great cornering traction. Good durability through knarly AZ single track. Fair price as always. Game. Set. Match. Less than 100 miles, started blowing off side knobs. Cornering traction was also greatly reduced. Back to the michelins for front tires.

Murch wins Sloan Research Fellowship
The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation announced Feb. 23 that Kater Murch, PhD, assistant professor of physics in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis, has been awarded a 2015 Sloan Research Fellowship. He is among 126 outstanding U.S. and Canadian researchers selected as fellowship recipients this year. The fellowships are given to early-career scientists and scholars whose achievements and potential identify them as rising stars, the next generation of scientific leaders.
Why do so many of us cry at the movies? Why do we flinch when Rocky Balboa takes a punch? What's really happening in our brains as we immerse ourselves in the lives being acted out on screen? These are the questions that Washington University in St. Louis neuroscientist Jeffrey M. Zacks, PhD, explores in his new book, "Flicker: Your Brain on Movies."
In the quantum world, the future affects the past
In the quantum world, the future predicts the past. Playing a guessing game with a superconducting circuit called a qubit, a physicist at Washington University in St. Louis has discovered a way to narrow the odds of correctly guessing the state of a two-state system. By combining information about the qubit's evolution after a target time with information about its evolution up to that time, the lab was able to narrow the odds from 50-50 to 90-10.
Making teeth tough: Beavers show way to improve our enamel
Beavers don't brush their teeth, and they don't drink fluoridated water, but a new study reports beavers do have protection against tooth decay built into the chemical structure of their teeth: iron. The research team, which was led by scientists from Northwestern University, included Jill D. Pasteris, PhD, professor of earth and planetary sciences in Arts & Sciences.
Stressed bees die sooner, leading to abrupt collapse of colonies
Restoring function after spinal cord injury, which damages the connections that carry messages from the brain to the body and back, depends on forming new connections between the surviving nerve cells. With a five-year, nearly $1.7-million grant from the National Institutes of Health, Shelly Sakiyama-Elbert, PhD, professor of biomedical engineering in the School of Engineering & Applied Science, is using novel methods to study how these nerve cells grow and make new connections to reroute signals that could restore function and movement in people with these debilitating injuries.

I hope you love it.
really "Madness Combat" <3
that was awesome really madness!
More greatness
After all these years the Madness flashes never seem to get old with you Krinkles,the kills were creative as always and the music was really jammin to so nice selection there,overall this was real cool and it's just another day at the office for ya. =)
last madness after 10 and 6.5
well hank had a good run but hes gonna finish his killing spree at madness 10 cuz krinkels is gonna stop madness and give it to someone for 2,000,000$ and he said it on his news like a month ago more or less so what im gonna do when madness 10 comes out im gonna watch all of them from 1 to 10 and you can do it too but go like this, madness 1,2,3,4,5,5.5,6,6.6,7,8,9 and then 10 if you want to im not saying you have to but you can if you want to and krinkels if your reading this hope you loved making madness combat cuz we loved watching it! everyone of your madness we loved from marshmello madness to madness 10 when it comes out hope we can see madness combat from someone else now.
I just don't feel like these newer Madness episodes even come close to how awesome some of the previous ones were. The action in them is a bit stale for the most part. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty cool, but it just doesn't have that punch like it used to

Kain Colter is the quarterback for the Northwestern Wildcats and right now he isn't too happy with EA Sports and NCAA Football 2013. Apparently they gave him red hair and that is "#disrespectful" to him per his Twitter account. Colter is a sophomore at Northwestern and made his first start in the 2011 TicketCity Bowl. I guess Kain doesn't like being a "ginger" in NCAA Football 2013.

The accommodations were good and the staff friendly and helpful - Robert
Great location right on the beach with a lovely view of the sunset in the evenings. The food was very, very good, smallish portions so not quite enough for my husband. Nice quiet, smaller hotel with very good service. No problems with having our 7 year old with us, although he was the only child in the hotel! Would definitely stay here again, very quiet resort but would make a great base with a hire car. - Anonymous
Lovely location and views. Nice apartment - the photos don't do it justice. Small development, well kept and clean plus bar and pool on site. Quiet surroundings. Ten minutes walk to restaurants and grocery shop: five to rocky shore and 15 to beach. - Anonymous
Good location for us as a family.Hotel food good.Many were staying all inclusive & were very satisfied.We only stayed one week & had two evening meals which were excellent value.The rest of the time we ate at the local restaurants which were also very reasonable & suited us as they were very Spanish, If you prefer more basic you could not do better than the hotel restaurant The rooms were spacious & cleaned daily. Pool great We had a car & explored the many beautiful beaches - Anonymous
We had a two bedroom apartment which was comfy and spacious. Kids room had a single bed and a pull out bed. Would have been better with twin beds. Kitchenette was adequate, but no sharp knife or small bowls suitable for cereals. Full size fridge with small icebox. Some balconies were huge, but ours was big enough for a table and four chairs which was fine. Pool area spotless and well maintained. Never a problem finding a sunbed. Mainly Spanish and British families. Didn't use the restaurant but - Anonymous
I will confidently give this hotel a 10/10 rating. Spacious rooms, extensively equipped with everything, starting from several air-conditioning systems, 2x TVs, an oven and a dishwasher, an iPhone docking station to paper towels and dish-washing soap. Well thought out, very respectful and handy for guests. The reception staff was polite and friendly, well-aware of the events in the area. Booked as a part of a honeymoon trip, absolutely satisfied. Will come again once in Menorca. - Anonymous
location (if you have a car) / quiet fellow guests / staff - Anonymous
The apartments were spacious and in a very good condition. The pool area is lovely, the pool itself is plenty big and good amount of space around the sides for sun worshippers so you don't feel cramped. Lots of resturants and Cala en Blanes square (with 4 resturants and entertainment every night) within easy walking distance of apartments. Bus stop for Cituadella right outside the apartments. - Anonymous
Was allocated a nice ground floor apt. overlooking the swimming pool with small garden. Plenty of sunbeds. Apts. well fitted and clean. Staff friendly and always helpful. Excellent value for money. Will certainly stay again. - Anonymous

The former Karnataka Chief Minister, B.S. Yeddyurappa, has initiated talks with BJP leaders on his return to the party, amid indications that it has no issues with his coming back. After the disastrous performance of the BJP and the new Karnakata Janata Paksha headed by Mr. Yeddyurappa in the Assembly elections, there is a realisation on both sides that they need each other. Mr. Yeddyurrpa was forced by the BJP to step down as Chief Minister after the Lokayukta indicted him on charges of illegal mining. — Special Correspondent

Editors' Review
+For children, animation seems like magic. As adults, we want to create our own magic. Animationist for Mac tries to help fulfill this wish by making it feasible for the average person to animate graphics.
Animationist for Mac takes graphics and animates them in a completely user-defined format. You can modify and customize graphics easily using a variety of features. However, creating animations with this program can be a little confusing and complicated. The video tutorials are a good place to start figuring out how to animate. The program also includes samples that show a wide range of possible animations that the program can create. In order to animate, the user first needs to create or upload graphic elements. Next, the elements need to be sequenced. The sequencing is shown in the interface and is easily adjusted. The interface is easy to use and the functions are readily accessible. The demo version is free to use but it places a watermark on all animations. The complete version retails for $29.99.
Animationist for Mac succeeds at creating animations using made or imported graphics, although the process may require a steep learning curve. This program seems suitable for student and amateur animators. Although the program is loaded with options, professional animators may feel restricted by some of the preset features that are not adjustable.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of Animationist for Mac 1.0.
Publisher's Description
+Create perfect title art animations for your YouTube videos, iMovie or Final Cut projects, showcase videos and even TV broadcasts. Animationist brings everything you need for professional intro and title art animations. Animationist comes with many presets, samples and tutorials and an easy to use yet flexible user interface.

Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Just got an update from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 for my unlocked Moto G in the UK, running on an EE sim card.
Download and install was fine with no problems, it seemed to take longer than the update from Jelly Bean to Kit Kat which concerned me while it was doing the install but everything is fine.
I was a bit annoyed that they had updated the gallery, I purposely didn't install the new gallery from the Play store because I prefered the original one, I suppose I'll get used to it. The new contacts page is ok, although I'm not convinced the multi colours fit in with the rest of the android design look, again I'll probably get used to it.
A couple of things I did notice is how much faster the phone is, apps are opening a lot faster than before. Some apps like my Yahoo mail app has always been slow to open, but now it's instant. Chrome has speeded up considerably, my phone isn't full of lots ofapps, I try and keep it down to those I really use, but yeah a definite and obvious speed increase in general use.
One thing I noticed, which may well be connected with the speed increase, is that my phone is heating up more than before...a few minutes on instagram and I can feel the heat which didn't happen to that extent before the update. I checked in developer settings to se if the update had increased any animation/transition scales but they're the same as before.
Anyway, those are my initial thoughts.
I'm glad Motorola are still providing updates for the Moto G, hopefully we'll get "L" whenever that comes out.

re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Very good review, and thank you.
As I don't use the stock launcher, dialler, messaging etc. a lot of the update doesn't apply to me, but since downloading it yesterday evening its most definitely faster with apps in particular opening a lot quicker.
As mentioned the facility to hide the carrier name is a brilliant touch, although if you're on the Three network like me obviously not so much of an issue.
Anyway, looking good so far....

Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
With regards battery drain, mine is now back to the same rate of drain that I had on jellybean i.e. it lasts ages. On jellybean I could get 48 hours out of the battery with my typical usage. Following the upgrade to KitKat that went down to 24 hours (I did a couple of factory resets too with no difference). But on 4.4.4 I am back to 48 hours and I haven't done a factory reset either. So I'm very happy with it.
Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Definitely a slightly better battery life compared to 4.4.2, but I never really had any complaints for 4.4.2. Again easy 48 hours life now with 4-5 hours screen on in that time - best screen on since the update is just over 10 hours now. Was probably about 10-20% less under 4.4.2.
Also I think there is a change in app access to more advanced battery stats as it looks like third party apps can once again access some wakelock details (kernel wakelocks) without root. Thought that was gone for good with KitKat. -
Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Bah - still one outstanding and very annoying bug that's been with me since JB - Use GPS for more than about 15 minutes and (for me) about 3 times out of 10 the battery will continue draining at an inflated rate after GPS is closed down (extra 1 to 2% per hour drain) until the phone is rebooted.
Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Hi all,
A quick review of posts on AC about the Moto G's performance shows some people have faced the following issues (one or more) - I've included URLs where it could. Can you guys please see if you're facing any of these issues?
1. Phone heating up (battery and display both, ranging from somewhat-warm to HOT)
2. Wi-Fi connectivity issues, particularly loss of range or frequent disconnections (this seems to be solved by clearing the cache)
3. Problems with auto screen rotation
4. Music player not playing some files, perhaps .wma files or pirated music (?)
5. Google Hangouts freezing
6. Battery drainingThanked by: - 07-27-2014, 06:22 AM #15
Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
I don't believe in them, just use my common sense.
I manually adjust the brightness to the minimum comfortable setting for the light conditions (I've never found auto mode to be particularly satisfactory on any phone); all locations services permanently off unless or until I actually need them; likewise Wi-Fi off if I'm not actually using it; the only apps I allow to sync are Gmail and WhatsApp; I only use vibrate for notifications whilst at work and never use haptic feedback; and NEVER use a task manager to kill your apps or keep manually killing them yourself, Android takes care of everything so just leave it alone.
Quite a few others I could mention but those are the main ones above. And of course, the BEST battery saver is to use your phone as little as possible!!

Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
The only apps I use mainly are WhatsApp and some games like candy crush saga, doodle jump,etc... My location settings is on. But it is on battery saving mode...my brightness is really low..
In spite of all this the battery drains quite fast when my screen is on for a couple of minutes.. That's what bothers me.
I have reseted my phone to factory settings once... There was a good improvement.
But the battery started draining a little now.
I used to use battery doctor and du battery n all... Didn't find it very helpful. :/
I thought Facebook played a major role in the draining of my battery. So I uninstalled it too..Thanked by: - 07-30-2014, 05:49 AM #23
Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
I think its narfed my phone. Hadn't had the no sim icon till a day after I went up to 4.4.4 ... Now it happens every minute or so and I have no signal. At first I thought it was a problem with the three network, till I noticed the no sim icon showing up. Which means the sim definitely is not being detected right?
Anyone else got this or is it just me? - 07-30-2014, 06:17 AM #24
Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Try wiping the SIM with a lint free cloth and remount it.
I've noticed that with this and my previous XT890 that sometimes it can be a little tricky for the SIM to engage in the slot so make sure it properly clicks in.

Re: Moto G Kit Kat 4.4.4 first impressions
Tried this to no avail. Seems like a dodgy sim could be to blame. Vodafone simcard worked fine in it. Three are sending me another one out to be delivered tomorrow hopefully. Will see how that goes.
Weird how it coincided with the update pretty much. At least it's not looking a problem with 4.4.4.
Mentioning the sim slot it does seem a bit flimsy. -

topAssisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with coordination of services by outside health careproviders. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes. A place in a retirement home can be paid for on a rental basis, like an apartment, or can be bought in perpetuity on the same basis as a condominium. A nursing home, convalescent home, Skilled Nursing Unit, care home or rest home provides a specific type of care for its residents. An assisted living facility may be a good choice if you need more personal care services than are feasible at home or in an independent living retirement community. Independent Living Communities enable residents to live as independently as possible, while providing certain services and social activities. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. Nursing Home residents include the elderly and younger adults with physical or mental disabilities. Assisted living is a philosophy of care and services promoting independence and dignity. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. There is a wide range of home care services that can help you maintain your independence within the comfort of your own home, from in home help to day care. The housing is friendlier to older adults, more compact, with easier navigation and assistance in outside maintenance.

Plank wings on their own without any stabilisation don't fly very well.
And that's not a very good airfoil. Way too much camber, too sharp on the edges and the high point is too far back. I have made wings of cardboard (for conventional looking planes) and they can fly. But cardboard is quite weak and quite heavy. Far better to use corrugated plastic as in the thousands of SPADs that have been built. See http://www.spadtothebone.com/ Steve |
Apr 04, 2009, 06:08 AM | |
Here's some very simple shapes you could try. (Picture below)
They are sometimes referred to a Kline-Fogelman type sections, if you look in the Flying Wings forum you should find more information. Straight wing planks as they are called, are quite difficult to get the CG in the right place, (usually well forward, 15 to 20% of wing chord), also the section needs some 'reflex', as BMatthews pointed out. If you want to use cardboard for experimenting, I would suggest a fairly conventionally looking model with a fuselage and tail so that you have a good stable base to work with. If you do an Advanced Search here on RCGroups, enter cardboard as the search word, then set the box just underneath to Search Titles Only, you should find plenty of threads where people have used it. Good luck with your projects. |
Apr 04, 2009, 08:43 AM | |
Google cardboard models and you will find some amazing scale models made from card the construction tips will help you http://home.earthlink.net/~charlesfelton/index.html here's a start.
Find your section, build it as a Jedelsky then cover the underside in plastic,cloth or another layer of card.........its an idea I saw applied to a German glider wing the results were very good according to the owner. |

American Retailers Report and Cramer's Energy Plays
Description:It will be a busy morning for traders watching the U.S. retail sector: Urban Outfitters reported numbers after the bell, and disappointed. We're still awaiting earnings from Dick's Sporting Goods and American Eagle Outfitters. Caesars Entertainment will report after the bell, and Jim Cramer is selling one energy stock that has traded up over the last six months - and replacing it with a bet he feels is set to outperform.
