Chief Minister Jayalalithaa and Governor K. Rosaiah condoled the death of eminent playback singer T.M. Soundararajan on Saturday.
Ms. Jayalalithaa said, TMS, who entered the Tamil film world with the song 'Radhe nee ennai vittu pogathaedi,' had sung more than 10,000 film songs. He had also sung a few songs in Telugu and Malayalam films.
TMS had also sung several devotional songs in praise of Lord Muruga. He was an unparalleled singer. The Chief Minister recalled that during her tenure in 2001-06, TMS was awarded the Padma Shri.
In a message, the Governor said the veteran playback singer was 'known for his rich voice and had stirred the audience by imitating the voices of most of the heroes he sang for.'
"His death is an irreparable loss to the Tamil film industry and Tamil music world in particular," he said.
DMK president M. Karunanidhi said his association with TMS went back to the days he penned the script for the film Mandirikumari.
TMS' mellifluous voice, Tamil pronunciation, emotional songs and his ability to match the voice of the heroes he sang for brought him fame. The State government conferred the title 'Kalaimamani' on him in 1974.
DMDK president Vijayakant said TMS' death was an irreparable loss.

As of 9/4, there have been 1252 total arrests. On we fight #TarSandsProtest http://www.tarsandsaction.org
On Monday, CREDO CEO Michael Kieschnick, Political Director Becky Bond, campaigner Josh Nelson, and I were arrested in front of the White House for protesting the proposed Keystone XL pipeline.
More than 700 people have been arrested since daily sit-ins began on August 20th, and over 185,000 CREDO members have signed our petition to President Obama asking him to reject this project.
This is a crucial test for the President — to see how far we will go in our use of destructive fossil fuels; if he will dig us in deeper, at greater and greater cost, or if he will stand up, and just say no to reject the madness of this project. It is his decision.
On Saturday at a rally in front of the White House, our petition will be delivered to the President. More than 1,000 people will have been arrested by then and after two weeks of protests, the White House is going to take special notice of this petition.
We need your name to be on it, too. Can you add your signature to help reach 200,000 signers?
Tell President Obama: Stop the Keystone XL Pipeline. Click here to automatically sign the petition.

Tell President Obama: Stop the Keystone XL pipeline.
Clicking here will automatically add your name to this petition to President Obama:
"The tar sands represent a catastrophic threat to our communities, our climate, and our planet. President Obama, you have the final word. You do not have to negotiate with Congress or industry. We urge you to demonstrate real climate leadership by rejecting the requested permit for the Keystone XL pipeline."
Learn more about this campaign
Dear Eric,
"Essentially game over" for the climate.
That's what climate scientist James Hansen calls the proposed Keystone XL pipeline — which would carry oil out of Canada's vast tar sands oil fields to Texas, where it will be refined, then burned across the globe, dealing a catastrophic blow to our chance of returning earth to a stable climate.
This project requires a presidential permit to start building — and it is President Obama's decision alone to grant or deny that permit. He will make the decision as soon as September.
Tell President Obama: Stop the Keystone XL pipeline. Click here to automatically sign the petition.
The Alberta tar sands are a carbon bomb. The 3rd largest oil field in the world, the difficult extraction and transportation of the tar sands oil ultimately produces up to three times the carbon emissions of traditional oil. (And extreme environmental devastation along the way.)1
The Keystone XL pipeline is the fuse to this bomb — a highway to swift consumption of this dirty, dangerous crude. As if that wasn't enough, it poses a massive spill risk in the six states along the pipeline route, including over the Ogallala Aquifer which provides up to 30% of our nation's agricultural water.
We. Must. Stop. This.
The administration's previous decisions on climate do not inspire confidence that they will deny the permit. Just last week, the administration approved offshore oil drilling in the Arctic. They have opened vast new areas to coal mining, and late last year, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton even said that she was "inclined" to approve Keystone XL.
But President Obama still has the final word. He does not have to negotiate with Congress or industry. As his State Department reviews the permit, the decision — which could have a devastating impact on the livability of our nation, and our world — is entirely in his hands.
We've lost too many climate fights already. We need a massive, historic show of pressure to make sure we don't lose this one. Please sign the petition and read below for other ways to get involved.
Thank you for fighting for an oil-free future.

WALLINGFORD — High school students will portray historical figures from the town's past during a tour of the historic Center Street cemetery on Oct. 4.
The tour has been held periodically in the past, with town officials and other notables playing the parts of those buried in the cemetery, including Rev. Samuel Street, Rev. Samuel Whittelsey and Katherine Miles. This year, students from the drama clubs at Sheehan and Lyman Hall high schools will play the roles as part of an effort to incorporate local history into education. It starts at 6 p.m. The event helps kick off Celebrate Wallingford, which will take place Oct. 5 and 6.
"It's one of those things that came to me," said cemetery groundskeeper Bob Devaney Jr., "It's a great way to get the drama club involved in learning a little history of their town."
Devaney approached Assistant Superintendent for Personnel Colin McNamara with the idea.
"It's a win for the students; a fantastic win for the community to get to see these kids and a win for Bob to have really good players in his production." McNamara said.
Devaney said he met with the students and drama teachers. He told them to focus on accurately portraying the early settlers. Rather than standing and reading from a script, Devaney encouraged them "to play the part."
Kellie Kennedy, who is in charge of the drama program at Lyman Hall, said she is working with the students on developing "the look of the characters and creating what they would look like and how they move and speak." Sheehan drama teacher Linda Ventura-Clemons said her students are looking forward to it.
"Hopefully it's a new tradition for years to come," Ventura-Clemons said. "It's a wonderful way to include students in living the history and learning of the community and doing something they enjoy doing."
With cemetery tours becoming more popular it's fitting to have the students involved, Devaney said.
"The cemetery is turning into a more educational thing," he said.

On cusp of new year, Chavez's health keeps Venezuleans fixated on future
(Read article summary)Over the weekend, the Venezuelan government informed the nation that ailing President Hugo Chavez has suffered 'new complications' from surgery earlier this month.
Marcelo Garcia/Miraflores Press Office/AP/File
Mexico City
Dec. 31 is typically a time to recap the biggest events of the year. But in Venezuela this year, news that President Hugo Chavez has suffered "new complications" after surgery on Dec. 11 has kept Venezuelans anxiously fixated on what's to come in 2013.
In downtown Caracas, an annual free concert in Plaza Bolivar to welcome the New Year has been canceled, government officials said. They instead called on Venezuelans to unite in prayer for the prompt recuperation of President Chavez, according to the Venezuelan daily El Universal.
President Chavez underwent surgery in Cuba on Dec. 11 for a recurrence of cancer. Since then, the nation has been faced with uncertainty about his chances for recovery, whether he'll be able to attend his Jan. 10 inauguration – after winning a fourth presidential election in October – and if not, who will be Venezuela's new president.
That uncertainty increased a notch after Venezuelan Vice President Nicolas Maduro went on television to say the following (translated into English by VenezuelanAnalysis): "Nineteen days after having undergone his surgical intervention, President Chavez's state of health continues to be delicate; he has presented complications that are being attended to with treatment that is not without risk."

Queen Mary 2 (QM2) Cruise Review by Canuker: Free Cruise
Member Rating
Compare Prices on Queen Mary 2 (QM2) Transatlantic Cruises
Free Cruise
Having got your attention with that subject line, I can tell you that, in practical terms this is a reality. As I write this we are in the middle of the North Atlantic, en route from NYC to Southampton, UK. It is day 5 of a 7 night "crossing" on Cunard's Queen Mary 2.
We decided, because this is Cunard, that we would set our expectations high (we've cruised before with several lines). We are constantly amazed at how those expectations have been met and significantly exceeded on this ship. Being an ocean liner, rather than a conventional cruise ship, QM2 and its staff have a bewildering variety of top-notch activities on board. No belly flop contests here, folks. The word that keeps coming to mind is "elegant". If you ever wanted to be treated like a queen or a king, or wondered what it might be like to stay at the world's best hotels (say, the Savoy in London), without the humongous bills, book a trip - any trip - on the QM2.
So, if it's so darn good, why do I say More
it's a free cruise? Top quality theatre and shows, music concerts (we especially love all the jazz on board). If "enrichment" lectures sounds a bit stiff, don't believe it; they are entertaining as well as informative and very well presented; you know, by people who really do know how to work an audio-visual computer presentation. The variety show last night was as good as anything I might expect at the London Palladium; I just wished my British father was there too, he would have loved it, God rest his soul. I confess, I wept as the show proceeded on what must be the biggest stage afloat, all to a (count 'em) 20+person live orchestra.
The planetarium is awesome. The glamour and glitz of the formal nights and the grand balls (there's a disco / live night club too) is a must, even if you never set foot on the dance floor. If I was to price all the events we have been to so far on this cruise, by going to them in our home town IT WOULD HAVE COME TO MORE THAN WE PAID FOR THIS CRUISE. So put it another way, the cruise itself has been a free bonus. I'll leave others to talk of the fabulous food, service and facilities on board.
Our regrets? We have two. Firstly, there is no way we can possibly get to all the events we want to each day. Secondly, we have to get off this magnificent ocean liner in three days time. But we have more to come. The cost of a one-way fare back home is way more than the cruise fare, so we are taking her back to New York! Less

Since 2002 Perimeter Institute has been recording seminars, conference talks, and public outreach events using video cameras installed in our lecture theatres. Perimeter now has 7 formal presentation spaces for its many scientific conferences, seminars, workshops and educational outreach activities, all with advanced audio-visual technical capabilities. Recordings of events in these areas are all available On-Demand from this Video Library and on Perimeter Institute Recorded Seminar Archive (PIRSA). PIRSA is a permanent, free, searchable, and citable archive of recorded seminars from relevant bodies in physics. This resource has been partially modelled after Cornell University's arXiv.org.
> I talk about a method to determine the anomaly polynomials of genera 6d N=(2,0) and N=(1,0) SCFTs, in terms of the anomaly matching on their tensor branches. This method is almost purely field theoretical, and can be applied to all known 6d SCFTs. Green-Schwarz mechanism plays the crucial role.
One hallmark of topological phases with broken time reversal symmetry is the appearance of quantized non-dissipative transport coefficients, the archetypical example being the quantized Hall conductivity in quantum Hall states. Here I will talk about two other non-dissipative transport coefficients that appear in such systems - the Hall viscosity and the thermal Hall conductivity. In the first part of the talk, I will start by reviewing previous results concerning the Hall viscosity, including its relation to a topological invariant known as the shift.
In AdS/CFT, the HRT prescription relates the entanglement entropy of a region of a CFT to the area of an extremal surface in the dual AdS spacetime. But there exists a class of spacetimes in which the HRT prescription is ill-defined. These spacetimes consist of planar AdS wormholes containing an inflating region. I will introduce these so-called AdS-dS-wormholes, discuss how the HRT prescription fails in them, and suggest possible modifications to remedy the problem.
From Feynman diagrams via Penrose graphical notation to quantum circuits, graphical languages are widely used in quantum theory and other areas of theoretical physics. The category-theoretical approach to quantum mechanics yields a new set of graphical languages, which allow rigorous pictorial reasoning about quantum systems and processes. One such language is the ZX-calculus, which is built up of elements corresponding to maps in the computational and the Hadamard basis.
Instead of formulating the state space of a quantum field theory over a single big Hilbert space, it has been proposed by Jerzy Kijowski to describe quantum states as projective families of density matrices over a collection of smaller, simpler Hilbert spaces. I will discuss the physical motivations for this approach and explain how it can be implemented in the context of LQG. While the resulting state space forms a natural extension of the Ashtekar-Lewandowski Hilbert space, it treats position and momentum variables on equal footing.
In this talk I will present some results of an upcoming paper where we study four-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories using the conformal bootstrap.
We focus on two different four-point functions, involving either the superconformal primary of the flavor current multiplet or the one of the chiral multiplet.
Numerical analysis of the crossing equations yields lower bounds on the allowed central charges, and upper bounds on the dimensions of unprotected operators (for unitary theories).
Two-dimensional interacting electron gas in strong transverse magnetic field forms a collective state -- incompressible electron liquid, known as fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state. FQH states are genuinely new states of matter with long range topological order. Their primary observable characteristics are the absence of dissipation and quantization of the transverse electro-magnetic response known Hall conductance. In addition to quantized electromagnetic response FQH states are characterized by quantized geometric responses such as Hall viscosity and thermal Hall conductance.
Renormalized perturbation theory for QFTs typically produces divergent series, even if the coupling constant is small, because the series coefficients grow factorially at high order. A natural, but historically difficult, challenge has been how to make sense of the asymptotic nature of perturbative series. In what sense do such series capture the physics of a QFT, even for weak coupling?
The cosmological model based on cold dark matter (CDM) and dark energy has been hugely successful in describing the observed evolution and large scale structure of our Universe. However, at small scales (in the smallest galaxies and at the centers of larger galaxies), a number of observations seem to conflict with the predictions CDM cosmology, leading to recent interest in Warm Dark Matter (WDM) and Self-Interacting Dark Matter (SIDM) models. These small scales, though, are also regions dominated by the influence of baryons.

India's current distribution situation poses greater risks for biotech products, which require careful climate control throughout its transit period. The relative lack of awareness toward the importance of these requirements makes biotherapeutics even more vulnerable to spoilage during distribution. Moreover, the infrastructure for cold-chain management is still developing in India. This situation has forced both pharmaceutical and biotech companies to consider alternate distribution systems. These attempts, however, have faced severe resistance by the lobbies of traders involved in the channel.
India is a geographically diverse country with extreme climates that make distribution a critical function. The long channel of distribution and high incidence of brand substitution makes it mandatory for a company to make all its stock keeping units (SKUs) available at all levels at all times. In India, most brands have generic versions of drugs and retailers can usually obtain higher margins with generics than for branded products. To reduce risks of substitution, innovator companies must make sure their products are made available to the stockists and retail shops.
Drug distribution in India has witnessed a paradigm shift. Before 1990, pharmaceutical companies used a different distribution system, in which they established their own depots and warehouses that now have been replaced by clearing and forwarding agents (CFAs). These organizations are part of the distribution chain, and are primarily responsible for maintaining storage (stock) of the company's products and forwarding SKUs to the stockist on request. Most companies keep one to three CFAs in each Indian state. On an average, a company may work with a total of 25–35 CFAs. Unlike a CFA that can handle the stock of one company, a stockist (a regional distributor) can simultaneously handle more than one company (usually, 5–15 depending on the city area), and may go up to even 30–50 different manufacturers. The stockist, in turn, after 30–45 days (a typical credit or time limit) pays for the products directly in the name of the pharmaceutical company. The CFAs are paid by the company yearly, once or twice, on a basis of the percentage of total turnover of products.
In 2006, the market size of India's pharmaceutical logistics segment (distribution) was valued at around $200 million and the logistics/distribution industry has been growing at an average annual growth rate of 4% since 2002. According to the Indian Retail Druggists and Chemists Association, in 1978, there were roughly 10,000 distributors and 125,000 retail pharmacies in India. Today, the total number of stockists in India is around 65,000 and the number of pharmacies is about 550,000, an increase of around six- and four-fold, respectively.

Margaret first worked in the Department of Alien Assimilation which focused on migrants post arrival, before moving to the Assisted Division which handled the reception of assisted European migrants arriving in Melbourne. Her final position was working for the General Assisted Passage Scheme, assisting migrants from the US, Scandinavia and Switzerland who came individually on general ships as opposed to migrant ships. She recalls her time with the Department with great pleasure. She was a young single woman and had just finished an Arts degree at Melbourne University. When she applied to the Public Service, she was placed with the Department of Immigration, as she spoke German. She left when she married in 1961 as per the policy at that time. - Description:

My site will be directed at Victims/Survivors of Law Enforcement Officer-Involved Sexual Assault. While I anticipate my readers won't have much of a sense of humor or creativity- at least during the initial phases of recovery – many will suffer from Post Traumatic Stress. When recovery starts to take hold, many can benefit from a creative outlet. As they transition to emotional stability, I hope celebrating Mad Pride Month will help draw them back into creative expression.
I think there's nothing wrong with embracing humanity's diversity, and I never heard of this movement before this post. If a person isn't significantly bothered by something they do or feel, then, by definition, it's not something others need to concern themselves with. If someone feels it's just a personality quirk that they wash their hands 40 times a day, and they're basically fine with it, it may be OCD-like behavior, but it wouldn't be diagnosed as OCD by most.
There's been a long-standing argument that some of the world's most creative and greatest artists, writers, poets, actors, etc. have had a touch of madness which is why they were so great. By treating all such maladies, we may be inadvertently also treating ourselves to a world of mediocre and mundane artistic and creative types.
So, indeed, Happy Mad Pride Month!
I don't think Mad Pride is against choice to pursue treatment if wanted at all. And it has nothing to do with Scientology which tells people there is something wrong with them, just a different something than psychiatry tells them.
All types of treatments should be available but are not and lots of folks are driven away from ever seeking treatment voluntarily by the prejudice against people with psychiatric labels as bad or dangerous. So if Mad Pride can help change that, well Happy Mad Pride Month!
The problem I have with forced psychiatry is that it is forced. My friend is dead because of psychiatry's abuse. In far too many cases psychiatry does more harm than good. Unfortunately psychiatry does not admit the harm. If somebody dies because of psychiatry's abuse, the finger still gets pointed at the person who is dead. If there are people who want to celebrate their way of being I'd say more power to them. And let's stop the oppression.

Hens fan goes nuts for Inge
It was just another day at the ballpark for this Mud Hens fan. Sit back, have a few beers, throw peanuts at former Tiger Brandon Inge…wait, what? Yes, fans do heckle players at the games, especially at the minor league games where the fans are so close to the action. Last night, however, one fan took things a little too far and began belittling Inge, and even started throwing peanuts at him. Inge, who signed with the Pirates this spring, was playing for the Indianapolis Indians on a rehab assignment against the Mud Hens in Toledo.
"It was just an agitate fan that took it a little too far", Inge told The Toledo Blade. "That stuff is unfortunate. You can't avoid it. There's always going to be a couple of idiots at every game. There's nothing you can do about it. You can handle it the best you can, and I think we did."
When the fans assaults became unbearable, Inge's teammates were quick to defend him. Pirate prospect Jerry Sands and Felix Pie had to be restrained from going after the unruly fan. Sands actually cleared the fence between the stands and dugout, an action that brought a one game suspension from the International League. The fan was escorted out of the ballpark, but still tried throwing beer at the players on their way out (alcohol abuse?). Inge did his best to continue the game, and make it enjoyable for the remaining fans, especially the kids in attendance. He handed out more than a half-dozen baseball to kids.
"Everything was handled very professionally," Inge stated. "The Mud Hens handled it professionally and I think we handled it as professionally as we could." Uh, except for Sands, though, Brandon? He did take care of the kids, though: "I know the face of a kid that's scared. And that man was definitely scaring those kids around the area. I actually saw a couple of kids sitting by themselves, I'm sure their parents were nearby, and I saw them actually get up and move a couple of seats back. They were just like, 'Wow, we need to move,'. I didn't want them to feel like that. So I pulled them over and gave them some baseballs. It turned to be, I think, ok."
None of the Mud Hens players were involved. The Detroit fans have always had a love/hate relationship with Inge, though. Personally I've never had a problem with him. He always worked hard and wanted to contribute the best he could. He's also recently stated he'd like to come back to the Tigers organization when his playing days are done. This is prediction I've made many times, however.
"I'd probably, one day, like to stay part of that organization in some way," Inge stated to the Detroit News. " One thing I learned through the years in this game is reading people. It's why I respect Al Kaline so much. He's still helping the Tigers in so many ways. But what impresses me is that he's such a great personality reader." He also stated to the News, "Detroit is home for me. It's not something you experience for as long as I did and not call it home. In my mind, I'll always be a Tiger."
There you have it, folks…. Any way you slice it, though, the fan was in the wrong, and I'm glad he got tossed without anyone getting hurt. Best of luck in your rehab, Brandon.

Indy on Super Bowl Weekend
I have to say, I'm really glad it's time for the Super Bowl. Really, I am. To me, it means the end of the football season, and we can finally concentrate on baseball. The fact that this years 'sporting' event of funny commercials and laughable half-time shows takes place in Indianapolis, does hold a special place in my heart. The city's football stadium (I'm sure it has a name, I just don't care) is right next to one of my favorite Minor League venues in Victory Field. This house of baseball mastery has been around since 1996, and has been voted the best Minor League stadium in the past. While there on our baseball trip in 2009, there was a lot going on already to get the city Super Bowl sound. Out over the left field wall, we witnessed constant construction on a brand new hotel big enough to house all the players and celebrities. That didn't distract us from seeing some great baseball, though, or taking in all of the ambiance of one the best stadiums to feature the best sport.
Victory Field has been, and will be a part of the festivities this weekend, however. So far Dan Patrick has been broadcasting his syndicated sports show from there this week. Today it will also host the DirecTV Celebrity Beach Bowl, and will be transformed into a nightclub tonight and Katy Perry will put on a show. I'd prefer Avril, but, hey, that's just me. Making a beach atmosphere on a baseball field in February is no easy task for the Victory Field grounds keepers, either. Along with a million pounds of sand, there will constructed a concert stage, LED robbonboards and specially constructed bleacher sections. It's basically a giant airplane hangar, that can house a beach, stage, and fit in 5,000 rapids fans. Below is a promo pic and a good photo of the preparation being done on the field.
Photos courtesy of the Indianapolis Indians
Here are some artists rendition of the completed beach and night club. Looks like a lot of fun to me, but he grounds crew will have their work cut out for them getting the field back to being baseball ready in a couple of months. Last year, Victory Field was voted Triple-A 'Field of the Year' and head groundskeeper Joey Stevenson was named Triple-A 'Sports Turf Manager of the Year', so there is a reputation at stake, here. In all, though, it's good to see this field get a little publicity, even if it's not just for baseball.
M.I.B. Prime 9: Favorite Minor League Ballparks
With the MiLB season over, it's time to look forward to next year. I can do this with some good ol' American plagerism-ripping of MLB Network' Prime 9 show for a littlle countdown of my own. Narrowing the list to just nine parks wasn't as easy as I thought, but here we go.
9) Fox Cities Stadium-Appleton, WI: Wisconsin Timber Rattlers/Class A Midwest League. Picking number nine was the hardest of all. Fox Cities Stadium barely beat out the ballparks in Dayton, Cedar Rapids, and Charleston, respectively. The stadim itself isn't huge, with a capaicity of only 5500, but it's a nice place to watch a game. The fans gave this ballpark the egde, with it's spacious parking lot perfect for tailgating. And Wisconsin fans love to tailgate. The beer and the brats are always perfect for a game, before and after. The affiliation with the Milwaukee Brewers has really helped the atmosphere here, and the attendance. The park itself is basic, with no real site lines, but not a bad seat to watch baseball. The park is very easy to find, but with only one entrance and exit, there might be a wait.
8) Pilot Field-Buffalo, NY: Buffalo Bisons/Triple A International League. Now called Coca-Cola Field, Buffalo is a major league city with a nice minor league park. At a capacity of almost 21,000 it's a good sized ballpark to watch a game. There are still no bad seats in the house, though, and the sightlines of the city are pretty awesome. We always got there by train, so I'm not too sure about the parking situation. The concessions are good and there is a resteraunt in the right field area. The Bisons draw a good crowd, which is probably even better now that they're affiliated with the Mets. I was able to watch the Bisons play here in 1993 along with some of the World University Games matchups. If I can ever find my pictures I took back then, I'll scan them and get one put up. Until then you can check it out here. This is probably as close as you can come to a major league feel for the minor league price.
7) Fifth-Third Field-Toledo, OH: Toledo Mud Hens/Triple A International League. Opening in 2002, this ballpark is great all round. It's carved into the downtown, and even has and area of seating in right field called the 'Roost' which is attached to a neigboring building. These have been dubbed the best seats in Minor League Baseball. The sightlines of the downtown area arn't quite as good as Buffalo, but are more than enough of an eyefull. The seating is great, and the prices are very reasonalbe. We paid $8 and sat behind the dugout. You can't really beat that. Parking is tough because it's right downtown, so get to the park early, and even eat at Tony Paco's accross the street, who you've might have seen Klinger on MASH talk about. Of all the the stadiums, this is one I'd love to visit more often. Throw in the fact that the Hens are the Tigers affiliate, and it's a winner in my book.
6) Baseball Grounds-Jacksonville, FL: Jacksonville Suns/Double A Southern League. The Baseball Grounds was like my second home in the summer of 2005 when I was training in southern Georgia for over four months.Being at the ballpark was about the only thing that could take my mind off the fact that I was missing my wife and kids hundreds of miles north in Michigan. Add to the fact that it's a great ballpark and the Suns won the Southern League in 2005, and this could easily be moved up on the list. The park holds about 11,000 and is nestled next to the Jaguars Alltel football stadium and Jacksonville's indoor arena. It's located right on the river and has great seating. Solid promotions and cold beer make this one of my favorites also. This is another parks I wish I could find my pictures of, but here are some good pics of it.
5) Louisville Slugger Field-Louisville, KY: Louisville Bats/Triple A International League. The front of the stadium is unique, as it's built into an old train depot, which they also built two resteraunts into. The seats are great on right on the field where fans like them to be. It sports a large concourse and a huge party area in the outfield for all of the drinking crowd. The kids park is really put together nicely, too, with a carosel and all. Not much for sightlines, other than the bridge over the Ohio River. With the Louisville Slugger Museum/Factory down the street, this is a baseball experience every fan should take part in.
4) Modern Woodman Park-Davenport, IA: Quad Cities River Bandits/Class A Midwest League. USA Today billed this as the best Minor League ballpark in the country. It's easy to get to and has one of the best views of probably any ballpark in the country with the brige over the Mississippi in right field. The concourse is set up so you can walk all the way around, which I like, and get a good view of the river and riverfront. The baseball atmosphere wasn't as good as I thought it would be, which is why it didn't make the top three. This is a must see for any baseball fan.
3) Victory Field-Indianapolis, IN: Indianapolis Indians/Triple A International League. I really enjoyed the games here in Indy. The whole town is sports nuts and the atmosphere is great. The entrance to the stadium is in the outfield, which makes it unique from other parks. There are also some kids games going on in the concourse which makes it very kid friendly. The whole park is set up with the family in mind, and it seems to be working. The sightlines downtown are great, but there was a lot of construction going on at the time that was a little distracting. The seats in the upper deck are some of the best I've had and are the perfect spot to watch the game. The wost part is there is a very small parking lot, so you have to find a parking garage downtown. The best part is there is a parking garage right accross from Hooters…
2) Fifth-Third Ballpark-Comstock Park, MI: West Michigan Whitecaps/Class A Midwest League. Yeah, I'm a bit of a homer here, but this is the list of my favorite ballparks. With a seating capacity of 10,000 it makes it pretty large for a Class A stadium, competitive with some Triple A and Double A stadium. It's run and taken care of like a big stadium, too, with lots of unique concessions. The Fifth-Thid Burger was even featured on Man vs. Food last season. Located just north of Grand Rapids, there is a great atmosphere for baseball. The Whitecaps being a Tigers affiliate helps with that. All the memories of my kids and I here easily puts this ballpark toward the top of the list.
1) Grayson Stadium-Savannah, GA: Savannah Sand Gnats/Class A South Atlantic League. The reason historic Grayson is at the top of my list is quite simple. I just really really like it there. In truth, I have a love affair with the whole city of Savannah. I got a taste of it while down there training in 2005, then last summer I was actually stationed there for a week. Luckily the Gnats were in town, and I couldn't get enough. The horrible pics I took with a disposable camera can not do this ballpark justice. It's small and cozy, and as a baseball fan you just feel at home. You can actually feel the history of the sport sputter though you're vains while watching a game here. It's like actually taking a step back in time and seeing the game in it's pure form. The brick exterior is classic baseball, while the weeping trees make it classic south. Nothing really fancty about the park, other than pure baseball. Savannah offers so much to look at, but catching a game here would be worth it.This is defiately a place I'd like to bring my kids down to someday.
So, there you have it. Again, it was very difficult choosing just nine, but truth be told I have never been to a ballpark I didn't like. Everyone is unique and meeting the great fans everywhere makes every team worth checking out. So that's my Prime 9. What's yours?

2009 Baseball Trip
Tues. May 5-South Bend, Indiana: Our first trip to Coveleski Stadium in South Bend pitted the home Silver Hawks against the Cedar Rapids Kernels. We fought off the rain all week, and it started here with some drizzle, but the rain actually held off and we got the whole game in. Trevor made the trip with us this year, and he was uccessful in getting two game balls. The stadium is a little plain, but cut into the ground which I like and had good seating. We had good seats in the front row.

Re: Muse
For realz. That's how Kirk and Spock explained the device in Metamorphosis. My favourite episode. But that's because I thought it was self-criticism, that Menoski (The author) was slapping around the rest of the writers and producers on Voyager for being asshole hacks... And he might have been. He's complaining that sex and violence make for shit stories. How is that not a tailor-made kick in the nuts for Braga and Berman? Never mind. Joe was probably talking about the rest of television that actually made money for their networks.

Loved the epilogue. CHORUS 1: And so ends the rescue of B'Elanna Torres, half-Klingon. B'Elanna Torres, half-human. B'Elanna Torres, Chief Engineer. KELIS: These stories will continue for as long as we have the breath to tell them, and as long as our patrons remain wise and compassionate. And Voyager will continue on her journey to the gleaming cities of Earth where peace reigns, and hatred has no home. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJLUHs3Pi0E Loved the way B'Elanna got into the writing process and the idea of being someone's "muse". Loved Kelis' interpretation of her explanation what it means to be Vulcan and its juxtaposition to Tuvok's efforts on Voyager to find them. Loved her complaint about Chakotay Kissing the Captain. Loved seeing "Star Fleet" and "Maquis" back as a team again. Loved seeing how beat up the Captain was over their loss. Loved B'Elanna's solution to the end of Kelis' story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF13pMAyiFE Loved the ep!

I often like these types of simple episodes (where they encounter species vastly less advanced rather than the ones that are vastly more advanced......or for that matter, the standard aliens who are bizarrely pretty much on a parr with Federation levels) They're more human and the story is often more compelling and has a point to make (also have a soft spot for "The Thaw" cos it keeps it very simple) Becoming one of my favourites

Re: Muse
In one story I wrote that was a space opera parody, there was a concept of 'Convenience energy' which causes the plot to work out conveniently for the protagonists. It is the energy source behind both warp engines and universal translators. Muse was a nice idea for an episode but I don't think it was well executed. |

Re: Muse
If you see one Star Trek episode titled 'Muse', make this it (seriously, DS9's "The Muse" is horrible). It seems to be one of the most overlooked/underrated episodes in Season 6. "Riddles" is also quite good (best Tuvok/Neelix episode and one of the few times Neelix actually shines. And he lays on one hell of a guilt trip too). |

As to tasking the rest of the writers and Berman/Braga, I don't know. The only thing I can pin down as possibly against another specific writer is Kelis' envisioning Seven of Nine as the Borg Queen. That is what Ron Moore did in Survival Instinct. Then, where Kelis' version of Seven and Janeway was about peacemaking (possibly the heart of Star Trek,) Moore's was about, well, how people are assholes and should kick themselves for their shameful deeds? Seems a little bit of a stretch to view it as a blast, though. On the other hand, it is very probable that the Protector is either the collective suits at UPN. Maybe Berman, but I can't see anything referring to Braga. There was a little exchange about eschewing dramatic tricks but the episode itself followed the structure outlined in the conversation!

Joe Still Has The Hart For The Title!
Joe Hart has warned arch-rivals Manchester United that the title race is far from over despite their seven-point lead.
The 25-year-old England international was beaten by former club-mate Adam Johnson's long-range shot at the Stadium of Light on Boxing Day to condemn City to a third successive 1-0 Barclays Premier League defeat at Sunderland.
Joe Hart: "The only way we can change it is by winning here next year - but for now, we only have Norwich on our minds.
"Simon Mignolet has had a magnificent game. He's a brilliant goalkeeper, I have watched him closely in other games.
"Sunderland defended for their lives and it just wouldn't go in for us.
"First and foremost, someone stamped on Zaba - it was a blatantly obvious foul - but what can you do?
"I was in my position for the shot, and that's where you will see me again on Saturday.
"But he struck it well with just enough wobble to beat me."

text: I'm running fcron in a way similar to how RedHat sets up their cron. In the crontab I just have 4 jobs (for hourly, daily, weekly and monthly) each of which is simply running a script called "run-parts" that walks through a folder and executes each of the scripts in it (fcron.hourly, fcron.daily, etc). When you compile this crontab it just compiles in the run-parts calls, but not what each of the run-parts scripts actually ends up calling when they are invoked. This way you can modify the actual stuff that fcron ends up running without having to ever recompile the script. I wonder if that would solve your problem as well, since if fcron does in fact check whether the things it spun up on a previous run have run their course, it would just look for "run-parts" not for the actual daemon that you invoked from there. Here's the run-parts that I use, based on the one from RedHat 8: [durk at tuxedo durk]$ cat /usr/bin/run-parts #!/bin/bash set +e if [ $# -lt 1 ] ; then echo "Usage: $0 <dir>" exit 1 fi if [ ! -d $1 ] ; then echo "Not a directory: $1" exit 1 fi for i in $1/*[^~,] ; do [ -d $i ] && continue if [ -x $i ] ; then $i 2>&1 | awk -v "progname=$i" \ 'progname { print progname ":\n" progname=""; } { print; }' fi done exit 0 Here's the crontab itself: [durk at tuxedo durk]$ cat /etc/fcrontab SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO= HOME=/ # run-parts 01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/fcron.hourly 02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/fcron.daily 22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/fcron.weekly 42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/fcron.monthly

Susan for Model Number mdb7100
Answer Hi Susan. Sorry but no, most model racks wont accept a folding tine assembly. Unless it was designed to have one from the start. Most manufacturers have adjustable shelves or convertible tines in their upper end units. Good Luck, and thanks for the inquiry.

Mice with beta cell overexpression of glycogen synthase kinase-3β have reduced beta cell mass and proliferation

Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) has been implicated in the pathophysiology of several prevalent diseases, including diabetes. However, despite recent progress in our understanding of the role of GSK3 in the regulation of glucose metabolism in peripheral tissues, the involvement of GSK3 in islet beta cell growth and function in vivo is unknown. We therefore sought to determine whether over-activation of GSK3β would lead to alterations in islet beta cell mass and/or function.
Transgenic mice overexpressing a constitutively active form of human GSK3β (S9A) under the control of the rat insulin promoter (RIP-GSK3βCA) were created. Studies using mouse insulinoma cells (MIN6) were conducted to investigate the regulation of GSK3β activity and its impact on pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein-1 (PDX-1) levels.
We demonstrated that phosphorylation of GSK3β was decreased, indicating increased GSK3β activity in two animal models of diabetes, Lepr −/− mice and Ins2 Akita/+ mice. In MIN6 cells, the activity of GSK3β was regulated by glucose, in a fashion largely dependent on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. RIP-GSK3βCA transgenic mice showed impaired glucose tolerance after 5 months of age. Histological studies revealed that transgenic mice had decreased beta cell mass and decreased beta cell proliferation, with a 50% decrease (p < 0.05) in the level of PDX-1.
We showed direct evidence that GSK3β activity is associated with beta cell failure in diabetic mouse models and that its overactivation resulted in decreased pancreatic beta cell proliferation and mass. GSK3 modulates PDX-1 stability in both cultured insulinoma cells and islets in vivo. These results may ultimately facilitate the development of potential therapeutic interventions targeting type 2 diabetes and/or islet transplantation.

Getting Big & Strong On A Vegan Diet!
There is no way that you can get big and strong on a vegetarian diet! I used to hear this all the time from my meat-eating friends. I say, used to as I never hear it anymore from people that know me or from people that have seen my photos on my website. Yes my friends, you can in fact get bigger and stronger on a vegetarian diet. You can even do it on a vegan diet (no animal products whatsoever).
How To Get Started
When I was fifteen I read an interview with Harley Flannagan (lead singer of the legendary NYC hardcore band, the Cro-mags) in which he stated that he became a vegetarian to lead a more peaceful life and that one cannot talk about peace when they have a steak on their plate, as an animal died in agonizing pain to end up there. That really struck a cord with me and got me thinking about the thousands of animals that suffer daily on factory farms. Next, I visited Kenya with my parents and experienced a feeling of oneness with the animals over there.
I realized that I did not want to contribute to the unnecessary suffering of other beings and I knew that I needed to make some changes. Finally, I saw a movie called "The Fly II" in which a golden retriever is mutilated in an experiment gone bad. That got me thinking about how animals are abused in labs and further solidified the new direction that I was taking. In addition, to giving up meat, I decided that I would make sure to purchase products such as: toothpaste, shampoo, soap etc that were not tested on animals.
I gave up meat gradually. I stated off by giving up all meat except fish. Then I gave up fish, but continued to eat eggs and dairy. Once I realized that most eggs and dairy products came from animals that lived miserable lives on factory farms, I gave up all animal products. That was ten years ago and I have never looked back. While I am an ethical vegan, there is no doubt in mind that a vegan diet is healthy and that I can get everything that my body need for my intense lifestyle. Regardless, like any other diet, planning is required.
The number one thing that people always ask me is where do I get my protein. Many vegans that I have met make the mistake of thinking that you do not need much protein at all. I even had one guy tell me that only 5% of one's diet should come from protein. Of course this guy looked like Don Knots and would be blown off like kite if a strong wind came by. I had another guy tell me that I can get protein from a cucumber and that I should not even worry about it.
Of course, this guy was not in shape either and was in no position to give me nutrition advice. We have to be much more sensible than that. Especially, if we expect anyone to give up meat and adopt a vegetarian diet. Telling people that they can get all of the protein that they need from eating spinach and leafy green vegetables is impractical. Just because it works for the gorillas does not mean that it will work for us. Not getting enough protein and thinking that only 5% of your diet needs to be comprised of protein are sure fire ways to be spindly and weak for the rest of your life. Now I am not saying that you need two grams of protein per pound of bodyweight like the bodybuilding magazines state.
That is way too much protein and a case of overkill. For athletes, 0.7 to 1 gram of protein per pound of lean muscle is optimal for increasing strength and size. For example, if you weigh 180lb and have ten percent bodyfat, then you should shoot for 150-160 grams of protein to build more muscle. If you want to maintain your size, then 100-120 will probably be sufficient.
Next, vegans like anyone else need to load up on healthy sources of fat. Without enough fat in your diet, your skin will dry up, your energy will plummet, and you will look like death. Getting 20-30% of your calories from fat is a good way to go. Load up on healthy fats such as: flaxseed oil, olive oil, almonds, walnuts, almond butter, and avocadoes. Also, vegan diets are free of all saturated fats, which is great for the most part. However, some saturated fat is required for optimal health, so get some coconut oil or coconut milk in you diet as well.
Finally, make sure that you eat a variety of food to get a full array of muscle building amino acids. Some examples of good combinations include: black beans and quinoa, lentils and brown rice, almond butter sandwich, Rice protein/soy milk shake, green peas and almonds. Have some veggie burgers and other fake meat products from time to time, but make sure that the majority of your diet comes from fresh organic food.
Sample Diet
- Raisins
1/2 cup
- Veggie Burger
- Protein Shake
3 scoops
- Salad
- Lentils
1 cup
- Quinoa
1 cup
- Apple
- Dark Chocolate
- Red Wine
1 glass
Sample Four Day Program
Okay, now that we have the diet taken care of, let me address the most important part of getting bigger and stronger which of course is training. If you do not have a solid training regimen, it does not matter what your diet looks like, you will not make any progress.
Many trainees make the mistake of doing way too much volume and focusing way too much time on isolation exercises. If strength and size is what you want, then focus on compound movements that work a lot of muscle groups such as: Deadlifts, Squats, Military Presses, Dips, Chin-ups, Bent-over rows, and Bench Presses.

If you have always wanted to be vegetarian or vegan, but though that you would melt away, your worries are over. Follow my guidelines and I have no doubt that you will get stronger and pack on some size.

I'm all for being vegan, I did it once for about two months and the benefits were astounding. Weight loss and feeling amazing was something I want back. Thanks for listing your diet, I may try it again

Thanks a lot for this great article. I have tons of skin and digestion problems from eating the typical "bulking" diet. I am desperately looking for something else, and i also want to treat animals better. My questions are:
How many calories per day are you getting and are the macros ok for actual weight gain or just maintenance?
Does the soy have negative effects on male hormones. My male hormones are on the low end and it's pretty hard to build muscle. My goat physique is a fit 185 at around 10%. Would this be possible on a vegan diet? Thanks

t3/t4, I read this article today along with your comment. since there was no reply, I thought I'd chime in with my experiences. I've been a vegan for 11 years, and only actually bodybuilding as a vegan for about half a year.
It seems I'm getting way more calories and protein than this guy, but this diet plan looks great. I'd just.. double it possibly! I'm eating around 3500 calories a day, 4000 on big days. I was 190lbs when I started in January and I'm around 210lbs right now. Stocking up on brown rice, oats, black beans, greens, almonds, avocados, along with tofu, vegan turkey, veggie burgers, etc. I'm twice as strong as I was when I started, my arms, lats, chest, and legs are all way bigger. With the amount of food I'm eating, I'm not losing much fat, but I plan on doing a cutting phase soon to maintain some of my growth but lose quite a bit of chub, for a leaner strong build. I feel like you can rock 185/10% since that's what I'm going for.
I've eaten WAY more soy than people recommend, and 11 years later, no man boobs. I don't know if I have a lot of testosterone, or the average amount, but I haven't felt any difference. I rage pretty hard when I work out, and feel great eating compassionately. My skin has been great, my digestion is fine (just smelly), and since I've gone vegan, I rarely get headaches or bad poops. Like hardly ever. It's been great!
I love the workout routine. But I have a question about the upper body workouts. Now, how I've been doing it, is doing supersets with incline dumbbell presses and bent over dumbbell rows. Wait two minutes, then do another superset, until I do 5 supersets with those two exercises. Then I do the same with the dumbbell shoulder presses and pullups.
Now, I know that's not completely how your workout is laid out. So you want me to do incline dumbbell presses, wait 2 minutes, then do bent over dumbbell rows, wait 2 minutes, do shoulder presses, wait 2 minutes, and do pullups?

Excellent feed. I too am a vegan bodybuilder. At 63 I lift quite an amount of weight. Feel good all the time. Physically as well as mentally . Physically because vegan food is clean and the body works fine 24x7. Mentally because I am kind to animals, our co-owners of this world, the sentient beings. Thanks for sharing the article
Great Article, I was just wondering what type of protein powder you use, as a vegan i take Vega one and it seems to do the Job but is very $$$$ is there a cheaper alternative, that is just as good?

thanks I have been trying to find a good diet since I am now exercising and didn't know how much protein I needed and such since I don't consume animal products ... so basically do you still stick with 1oz of protein to one pound of body fat on a vegan diet??
