Diet helps prevent heart disease
Study this: The Mediterranean diet and heart disease, the flu vaccine's efficiency and cochlear implants in adults.

A Mediterranean diet high in olive oil, nuts, fish and fresh fruits and vegetables may help prevent heart disease and strokes, according to a new large study from Spain.
Past research suggested people who eat a Mediterranean-like diet have healthier hearts, but those studies couldn't rule out that other health or lifestyle differences had made the difference.
For the new trial, researchers randomly assigned almost 7,500 volunteers, all older adults with diabetes or other heart risks, to a Mediterranean or standard low-fat diet for five years, allowing the team to single out the effect of diet, in particular.
"This is good news, because we know how to prevent the main cause of deaths — that is cardiovascular disease — with a good diet," said Dr. Miguel Angel Martinez-Gonzalez, who worked on the study at the Universidad de Navarra in Pamplona.
Flu vaccine worked in 56 per cent of people
A U.S. government analysis of this season's flu vaccine suggests it was effective in only 56 per cent of people who got the shot, and it largely failed to protect the elderly against an especially deadly strain circulating during flu season.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the findings underscore the need for more effective weapons in the fight against influenza, which kills between 3,000 and 50,000 people in the United States each year depending on the severity of the flu season.
"We simply need a better vaccine against influenza, one that works better and lasts longer," CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden said in a statement on Thursday.
Experts generally estimate the effectiveness of flu vaccines to be between 50 per cent and 70 per cent, but this vaccine appears to have fallen on the low side of that range.
Cochlear implants boost adults speech, quality of life
Cochlear implants can improve speech and quality of life in adults with severe hearing loss — and two implants seem to work better than one, according to an analysis of past research.
The study, which appeared in JAMA Otolaryngology — Head & Neck Surgery, included 42 studies that compared hearing, speech and quality of life in eligible adults before and after they received a cochlear implant or compared having one versus two functioning implants.
"Cochlear implantation is just a hugely beneficial procedure for the people who need it. It's almost like magic," said Pamela Roehm, an otolaryngologist from the NYU Langone Medical Center, who wasn't involved in the study.
"Their hearing isn't completely normal, but for speech (and) understanding, it's so good."

Ian Rankin: Serial thriller
It's a bit of a jump, both culturally and geographically, from Auld Reekie to the Big Apple. Yet Edinburgh-based crime writer Ian Rankin has been offered one of the highest accolades Manhattan can bestow - the first non-American to have a story serialised in the 'New York Times'
Monday 05 February 2007
It is a stunning piece of news that would undoubtedly have persuaded Detective John Rebus to order another double whisky.
Ian Rankin, one of the leading exponents of what has been called "Tartan Noir" and the creator of the hard-living, hard-drinking Rebus, is to become the first non-American author to have a specially commissioned work serialised by The New York Times.
It is a signal honour for an author who started the hard way, working as a swineherd and a grapepicker to finance his literary studies. And it is also a crowning moment for the literary genre of which he is the master.
James Ellroy, who coined the phrase 'Tartan Noir', has already acknowledged Rankin's singular merits. Now the notoriously fastidious and demanding readers of America's most prestigious newspaper will get a chance to do the same.
Already a popular novelist among literary crime fans across the USA and throughout the world, Rankin, who is credited with being one of the top 10 bestselling fiction writers in Britain, now looks set to be on the verge of promotion into the super-league of American authors.
The 46-year-old, who lives in Edinburgh with his wife Miranda and two sons, Jack, 14, and Kit, 12, was approached by the renowned newspaper at the end of last year with the specific request for a new story set in Edinburgh.
It is rare for any author to be commissioned by the paper to specifically create an entire novel for serialisation and the honour has not been lost on the writer who published his first Rebus novel 20 years ago this year.
"Since previous "serial providers" have included Patricia Cornwell, Michael Connelly, Elmore Leonard and Michael Chabon, the offer was hard to turn down," said a delighted Rankin.
The new story, which is expected to run in the newspaper every Sunday for 14 weeks from April, will not feature Rebus.
Nonetheless, NYT readers will be introduced to a number of renowned Edinburgh landmarks already familiar to fans of the hard-bitten detective. The plot, apparently, will revolve around an audacious art heist.
The Rebus novels, of which there are now 19 associated titles, have become an important part of Edinburgh's literary landscape in the past two decades with thousands of visitors coming from all over the world to see the sites associated with the surly sleuth.
Landmarks such as St Leonard's Police Station, Arden Street, the Oxford Bar in Young Street have all found fame, and in some cases earned a small fortune, cashing in on the fame of books that are now published in 29 languages. The novels have also been made into a string of popular television programmes starring first John Hanna and then Ken Stott as the main character.
"This won't be about Rebus," said Rankin. "It will have a thriller element but will be lighter in tone. When I think what people want to read on a Sunday morning, they don't want anything too heavy. It will be a chance to write something lighter about Edinburgh".
The call from The New York Times came out of the blue. Rankin said he spent most of January writing about 2,500 words every day in an attempt to get the work completed on time.
"It was quite intense but not bad at all," he said. "I had the idea and I just ran with it really."
Rankin's books are estimated to account for at least 10 per cent of all UK crime fiction sales. As the leading exponent of Tartan Noir, which covers Scottish detective fiction over the past 30 years by writers such as Christopher Brookmyre, Val McDermid and Denise Mina, the serialisation is expected to provide Rankin with invaluable exposure.
By happy coincidence, he is about to make a string of public appearances in the United States to promote his latest Rebus novel, The Naming of the Dead.
"The Tartan Noir thing is already pretty big over here and Ian Rankin is definitely one of the most well respected of that set," said Elisabeth Vincentelli, Time Out New York's arts & entertainment editor, who claimed the kudos of being commissioned by The New York Times was a big boost for his US profile.
"Crime books from Scotland are becoming more and more popular," she added.
Ironically, Rankin has previously admitted much of the motivation for his stories and his most famous creation comes from his early interest as a youngster in American crime novels.
Indeed, the first name of John Rebus is said to have been inspired by the 1970s books on John Shaft, the gun-toting black private eye from New York, written by Ernest Tidyman.
Unable to get into see the film of the same name starring Richard Roundtree, the young Rankin bought the book and became hooked on the American detective stories.
However, despite his enthusiasm for the genre, Rankin, who has broken Irvine Welsh and Iain Banks' records to have six titles in the Scottish top 10 bestsellers list simultaneously, claims he became a crime writer by accident.
Following in what he thought were the literary footsteps of the likes of James Hogg and Robert Louis Stevenson, Rankin, who has also wrote three thrillers under the pseudonym "Jack Harvey" during his early career, has always maintained that he never set out to write crime fiction. In fact, he didn't realise that was what he was doing.
For a man who says he used to go into bookstores and remove copies of his work from the crime shelves and put them in the Scottish Literature section, he has come a long way since he first began dreaming about a writing career.
Born in April 1960, in a small mining town of Cardenden, Fife, Rankin wrote and drew his own comic books, before going on to Edinburgh University, where he achieved a first class degree in American Literature.
After graduation, he worked in a series of jobs, including grapepicker, swineherd, taxman, alcohol researcher, hi-fi journalist and even as a singer with a short-lived punk band called The Dancing Pigs.
It was while struggling with a PhD on the Scottish novel and preparing to be a professor of English literature that he began writing his own book, The Flood. Soon the thesis on Muriel Spark was taking a back seat.
His second book, Knots & Crosses, was published the following year in 1987. Soon, his idea for a crime novel involving a bitter and slight dysfunctional detective with a compellingly flawed character took off and spawned an industry of its own.
Part of his appeal is that Rankin rarely describes his characters at length but rather leaves it to the reader's imagination to put a face and voice to individuals - a tactic that has worked especially well with Rebus as his personality has emerged over the years.
While Rankin has amassed a wealth of personal honours over the years, his creation has been equally prized. There are now tourist walks, a whisky and a beer named after Rebus.
For years, the cobbled streets and narrow blood-soaked streets of Edinburgh have been associated with the grave-robbers, body-snatchers and serial killers of history but now more and more tourists queue up to visit the real-life haunts of Rankin's fictional character.
And the prizes have kept coming. Rankin's accolades include being elected as a Hawthornden Fellow and winner of the Chandler-Fulbright Award; two Crime Writers' Association (CWA) Dagger prizes for short stories; the CWA Macallan Gold Dagger for Fiction; the Mystery Writers of America Edgar Award; the CWA Cartier Diamond Dagger to mark a lifetime's achievement in crime writing; honorary doctorates from the Universities of Abertay Dundee, St Andrews and Hull; culminating in an OBE in the 2002 Golden Jubilee Queen's Birthday Honours List for services to literature.
Recently however, at an age 10 years younger than his hero, Rankin has admitted that he faces a dilemma.
In the normal course of events, Rebus should be about to retire from the police which means that unless he can be brought out of retirement in some way for further adventures, the Rebus stories could come to an end.
Rankin has already said the next novel, due to be published next autumn, will be Rebus' last as a serving policeman
However, now that Rankin looks set for a renewed surge of interest from the American book market after the call from The New York Times it looks as though demand for Rankin's gritty style of storytelling is going to be even greater than before.
Already, there have been hints and suggestions that the Rebus character will appear in some spinoff story in the future. There is talk a story revolving around his current side-kick Siobhan re-opening an old case that would require Rebus' help.
As for Rankin's next move however, read all about it in The New York Times.
The stars of Tartan Noir
Son of a Kilmarnock miner, the former English teacher has been cited by Ian Rankin as one of his foremost influences. McIlvanney's most acclaimed novels, such as Laidlaw, depict the gritty and often violent reality for the hard men and women of 1970s Glasgow.
Creator of the investigative journalist Jack Parlabane whose first appearance in the 1996 novel Quite Ugly One Morning - a satire of Tory NHS reforms - picked up the First Blood award. Brookmyre is acclaimed in equal measure for his grit, wit and wildly profane dialogue.
Kirkcaldy-born former newspaper journalist and creator of three successful series of books, the Lindsay Gordon Mysteries, Kate Brannigan and in 1997 the Tony Hill & Carol Jordan series for which she won the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger for best crime novel with Mermaids Singing.
Former PhD student who used her grant money to write Garnethill, the first in a trilogy of crime novels set in Glasgow, for which she won the Crime Writers' Association John Creasey Memorial Dagger. Mina drew on her academic studies to examine the tortured world of sexual abuse victims.
The bestselling author of The Cutting Room, an examination of attitudes to pornography, which won her a nomination for an Orange Prize as well as a Creasey Dagger and Saltire First Book Award. Her third novel, The Bullet Trick, is the story of a magician set in Glasgow and Berlin.

We love teams. They become ours. Their fate becomes ever more crucial to our day-to-day well-being as the season—whatever the sport or activity may be—wears on to its inevitable conclusion. Then if "we" were good enough, it's on to the playoffs, and—if we're really blessed—to winning it all. Of course whether we win it all or not it all begins anew after a break of a month or three. The slate's wiped clean and we reinvest ourselves in the hopes of the ultimate outcome once more.

Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals seem a lot further from their years of happy near-transendence than they actually are.

I sat there watching his every move. How he would jump slightly everytime he would make a kill, I laughed at him quietly not trying to make known. "Bre'Na come on" Rissa said breaking my looks at her father, I turned and looked at her funny. "What" I asked scratching my neck a little bit.
Rissa has been my bestfriend since pre–k days, she's my ride or die. "What do you wanna do this weekend. You know since your spending the weekend with me" She said smiling and i smiled also. I'm pretty sure we was smiling for diff reasons but hell she doesn't know.
" Daaad . Can you take us to the store" She yelled as if he wasn't sitting Three feet away from us. He looked over at us after pausing his game. "Get yall s***. And come on" He said rising from his seat, I laughed. Chris was always cussing around us; I guess because he still conciders himself our age still, it's funny to me.
We made our way to his 2012 Range, and piled in. It wasn't my first time i'd been in it but for some reason he told Rissa to let me sit in the front seat. "So. Bre'Na, how's school" He asked as he pulled out of the driveway. I rolled my eyes at his question, but still answered it. "Fine. Im just ready to be done with it" I said looking out the window.
It's me and Rissa's Senior year and trust me im ready to go. "That's nice. When I was your age I was feeling the same way" He said as we pulled up at the liquor store. "Ill go in just give me the money" Rissa said as Chris passed her the money and she went into the store. It was somewhat of an akward silence until i felt a hand grip my thigh. I looked down to see Chris's hand firmly on my thigh. "Umm. Chris" I said reffering to his hand. He gave me a dimpled smile. "You like it. Just like I like you" He whispered in my ear. I wanted to feel nervouse but he was right.

Well then.. Ice Beam ALL those motherf***ers!
Aipom? they're not that hard are they? just squirt your delicious honey onto that piece of wood

Lol , Beaverbarrel!
Use a Seaking. It can actually be somewhat useful , because I'm pretty sure it gets Swords Dance.
Gyara not so much , mainly that Feebas is so godamn Rare...
dirkac, no offense, but I think we should close up shop here. There isn't very much activity anyways.
Anyways, I had to like, switch Staravia in 3 times just for Maylene's Lucario to get -3, so I can deal with it and it won't 1HKO it. And that annoying moment when you realise Staravia evolves IMMEDIATELY at the next level, and learns Close Combat *FUUUUUUUUUUUUU*
Buneary is like at Gym 4 and lv 33, and it still doesn't want to evolve I think it hates me.
My team so far:
Then I'm going to go for Lickitung (forgot to catch one when I went past that route) and somethign else... Maybe um... ??
Err, you need last Pokémon... Maybe Bibarel or Aipom :P
Yeah... Was almost gonna just wait for this place to get one month old.
If another drop like this happens, I'm just gonna request a close and maybe Remake it when XY Hypes down.
I once caught a bnuneary to my Platinum Team in etera Forest. just give it the Soothe Bell you get from Cheryl, and it'll evolve in no time at all.
Well, mine evolved at lv. 24 or something but.. Still

Casio XJ-S57 DLP Data Projector Review
As many business projectors only offer a two-year parts and service warranty, with 90 days on the lamp, Casio's three-year warranty on the projector and 180-day warranty on the lamp is a welcome feature. In addition to the solid warranty, live technical support is offered via telephone seven days a week. For assistance setting up the wireless networking ability, there is a video on a website specifically for the XJ-S57 and its brothers at www.superslimprojector.com.

About That Warning On U.S. Debt: Bond Investors Don't Care
If the U.S. doesn't figure out how to cut its long-term deficits, it could lose its top-notch credit rating, Standard & Poor's said today.
This was big news, and lots of stories this afternoon suggested that the announcement caused stock prices to fall.
I don't have any idea why the stock market fell today. But if you want to see the effect of the S&P announcement, the bond market — not the stock market — seems like the first place to look. After all, the bond market is where the U.S. government goes to borrow money.
And bond investors didn't seem to care.
If they were worried, you'd expect them to be selling Treasury bonds. That would drive up interest rates, making it more expensive for the government to borrow money.
But that didn't happen. The interest rate on 10-year and 30-year Treasury bonds actually fell a little bit today.
In other words, after S&P issued its warning about government debt, investors were more eager, not less, to lend the government money.

Aprilaire 800 Steam whole house humidifier/de-humidifier
Whole House Steam Humidifier - this is something that the owner of the HVAC company highly recommended when he saw 8 boxes for portable humidifiers in our basement Furnace area. We've gone through 2 units for each of the 4 bedrooms on the upper level of the house in the past 4 years. He said that the AprilAire 800 Steam humidifier will help keep the humidity level in the whole house at a constant level (making it a more comfortable home) - The humidifier supposedly can humidify and De-humidify....depending on what the house needs. I really like this add on - but the cost quoted was $2000. That seems a bit on the very high side....Could it be the fact that there is an additional cost for it to be connected to our circuit breaker? I went online and I can buy the humidifier myself for $650-$800. I know how to fish wires through walls and ceilings....but I'd hire an electrician to connect to the circuit breaker.....or is the $2000 realistic?
Any opinions, thoughts, questions, issues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
The model 800 is a steam Humidifier--it does not dehumidify.

Maximization, Whatever the Cost: Race, Redistricting, and the Department of Justice
Praeger, 2001 - Political Science - 178 pages
During the early 1990s the Department of Justice used its Voting Rights Act power to object to racially unfair redistricting laws to force states to maximize minority congressional districts. The results were dramatic: Congressional Black Caucus membership swelled from 25 to 38 and nine new Hispanic congresspersons were sworn in. Only three years later, the maximization strategy lay in ruins. The courts forced many of the new minority districts to be redrawn and the judiciary reserved especially harsh criticism for the Department.
Cunningham examines and analyzes how the Department came to adopt the maximization strategy. He explores the bureaucratic culture of the Division's Voting Section, its history, and the interaction of its progressive career staff with more conservative political appointees. The Division works amidst a vibrant interest group environment, with civil rights advocates, the state, and political parties eager for influence. Cunningham shows how that influence contest was won by the civil rights groups, how their preferred interpretations of fair redistricting and discriminatory purpose were adopted by the Division, and how their chosen districting models were forced upon states by the Division. He examines the effect the Department has had on federalism, representation, and its own impaired credibility with the judiciary. Finally, he suggests how the Division might resurrect its damaged reputation for balanced enforcement. An important study for scholars, students, and public policy makers involved with civil rights, public administration, and public law.

I borrow my games from the library. Fuck em all.
Interesting tidbit: The argument that piracy funds terrorism is based on the idea that terrorists sell counterfeit CDs and DVDs to raise money. The thing is, all of those people have pretty much been put out of business by The Pirate Bay and co., because nobody is going to pay actual money for a pirated DVD when it's free on the internet.
In other words, internet piracy fights terrorism.

I think just owning a Sony product makes you a terrorist.
People who where 14 and wanted the top 10 games just got a paper route and bought them.
Ah, the good old days. I remember I had to deliver the morning paper for three weeks before I was able to afford Paperboy...
