Bowers & Wilkins C5 In-Ear Headphones Review
Posted on Dec 25, 2011 at 1:47PM
Bowers & Wilkins has a tendency to make the most incredibly unique audio products in the world. First we took a look at Bowers & Wilkins' highly regarded P5 headphones early this year and liked them so much that we've given them our Editors' Choice award. Since then Bowers & Wilkins has introduced the C5, the in-ear headphones so differently designed that you would naturally think the $180 price tag is all about the looks. Exactly how good these are? Will they be worth your hard earned cash? Check out the full review to find out!

US Presswire photo
Jayson Werth is back in the Nationals' lineup for tonight's game.
Updated at 8:00 p.m.
Davey Johnson said all along the man who would decide when Jayson Werth came off the disabled list would be Jayson Werth.
So when the veteran outfielder sent word late Wednesday night through general manager Mike Rizzo that he was ready to return after nine games on a rehab assignment with Class AAA Syracuse and Class A Potomac, the Nationals manager didn't need to hear any more information.
"That was what I was waiting for, him to say: 'I'm ready,'" Johnson said this afternoon.
Thus, for the first time since May 6, Werth is in the Nationals' lineup, starting in center field and batting sixth against the Phillies. He makes his return slightly less than three months after breaking his left wrist trying to make a sliding catch in right field against the same Philadelphia club, with the same left-hander (Cole Hamels) on the mound.

Puts Werth down in the lineup instead of Lombo … starting him off slow batting eighth in front of Leon.
- RJD - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:36 PM
- Grandstander - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:36 PM
How many times will Henry go to the DL this season do ya think?
- baseballswami - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:36 PM
Full circle with Cole on the mound, playing the Phils. You think that had something to do with Werth being so insistent that he is ready? Things certainly have changed in the division since then, though.
- MicheleS - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:37 PM
Glad to have Jayson back! And per SJM from other post, now Henry isn't around to drive us nuts for the next month.
- MicheleS - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:39 PM
Davey is going to be on PTI
- pRAA - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:40 PM
Back injury is the new oblique.
- DaveB - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:41 PM
I had thought that we needed to clear a spot on the 40 man as well, but just counted and it seems to still be at 40, so I guess no action is required until / unless Cole Kimball needs to come off the DL?
- baseballswami - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:45 PM
Someone on a previous post said that we are at 39.
- JD - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:46 PM
DaveB,That's a good point. Werth was on the 60 day DL so he wasn't on the 40 man roster.
- Laddie Blah Blah - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:52 PM
Wasn't it just yesterday that Davey said he would go with 8 in the BP? He made the right decision, whatever the reason. The extra bat on the bench is more valuable than Henry in the BP. When Desi comes back, I hope they finally DFA DeRosa. We would still have Lombo and Tracy as IF backups, with TyMo backing up both 1b and LF, with Bernie as the 4th guy in the OF. Two lefties, a rightie and a SH, plus the backup catcher, on the bench, whoever that turns out to be.
- baseballswami - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:52 PM
I know we just lost two games to the ( gag) fils. But I am excited about Werth being back, HRod being stashed and Jordan's honor. It's been a good season for a Nat's fan. They have showed the baseball universe that they are for real and a force to be reckoned with for a long time to come.
- peric - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:52 PM
Someone on a previous post said that we are at 39.I was thinking there would be another catcher by now … so I discounted the 39 assuming that's why that slot was still there. I guess they can always release Maldonado but then he would be unavailable in Syracuse for 10 days. Guess they could use a filler catcher until then if they needed to do something. Maldonado, CMW, and Yunesky Maya seem to be the three most likely to lose their slots should the Nats decide to make a move.
- Gonat - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:52 PM
MicheleS said… Swami.. i bet based on Mark's tweet that Tyler was hiding all day from Davey. But thankfully we have the DL/Witness protection program for Henry. I really hope he gets it worked out. Just love watching him scare the beejeezzus out of the opposing hitters. ______________________________I don't believe for a minute that there was any other plan. They say it but no way do you keep Henry up. Rizzo takes him away so its not an issue.When rosters are expanded on Sept 1 he will reappear and the Nats no longer have to worry about a DFA.
- MicheleS - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:54 PM
Laddie, Desi might not be back until the end of the month, so DeRo could be here as rosters expand in September. Would love for Desi to come back quicker
- baseballswami - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:55 PM
I love the witness protection plan comment – so funny. I think they have been cooking up this plan for days. In September he can terrify people.Who knows – maybe he will locate his command? Maybe there is a spot in that program for Wang, Michele?
- MicheleS - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:56 PM
Gonat.. that was said as a joke.. because we all knew Henry was a marked man
- MicheleS - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:56 PM
Swami, Wang is more complicated. That one could be a DFA.
- peric - Aug 2, 2012 at 9:58 PM
When Desi comes back, I hope they finally DFA DeRosa.By then it will be September 1st and it won't matter. Davey can keep him around as a mascot as long as he doesn't put him on the playoff roster … if there's a playoff roster … but he probably will. Perez, Brown, Lannan, Severino, Maldonado or Hill (if they swap places) possibly Anthony Rendon (adding another infielder) would join the team. Rendon would need to keep in shape for the AFL. Marerro is still injured and seems unlikely. I think by September 1st they will really want to have Hill up on the roster.
- Kevin Rusch - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:03 PM
With Mike Fontenot being DFA'd by the Phillies yesterday, I think the nats might be able to grab the MI-backup that they need, at least until Desmond's healthy again. He's hitting well (.289) and plays decent defense.
- f7a17860-d840-11e1-b2b2-000bcdcb8a73 - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:06 PM
Wang's rehab time is almost up, no? Agree w Michelle.
- JD - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:09 PM
I would like to see Rendon move up and play a month in Potomac or even Harrisburg. That would set him up nicely to start at AA next year with an eye on the bigs by the end of the year.
- JD - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:10 PM
I don't see how we can hide CMW for a month. We can send Mattheus down for a few weeks but I don't know if Rizzo is inclined to do that.
- NatsLady - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:13 PM
Wang's time is up August 11.
- JD - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:13 PM
Fontenot sounds pretty good to me; better than DeRosa. But I think he bats left.
- JD - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:14 PM
'Wang's time is up August 11'. They might just send Matheus down to keep CMW as insurance for post SS schedule.
- natsfan1a - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:15 PM
Glad to have Werth back but hope he's not rushing it. Feel better, Henry.
- JD - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:16 PM
Big game for Det tonight. He has to seize the opportunity and win a big one for the team.
- Davide - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:45 PM
Please,tell me that somebody has hurt Rodriguez on purpose..
- Nattering Nat - Aug 2, 2012 at 10:47 PM
MicheleS said… Swami.. i bet based on Mark's tweet that Tyler was hiding all day from Davey. But thankfully we have the DL/Witness protection program for Henry. I really hope he gets it worked out. Just love watching him scare the beejeezzus out of the opposing hitters. This is the right attitude, IMO. I've always wanted to give Oh Henry the time to work out the mental aspect of his pitching, thinking of Hanrahan as the poster child for this. Come September, there's room for Henry again, so this should be a "fish or cut bait next year" problem, not for this year.
- SCNatsFan - Aug 3, 2012 at 12:21 AM
Bet Henry's back gets better right around September call ups

Perfect Belt
12th September 2013
This belt is adorable! It is very high quality and feels luxurious when you put it on. It instantly elevates any outfit and makes the outfit look expensive. It also goes with almost any outfit... the type of belt you'll get a lot of wears out of. It's on the expensive side, but the quality of the leather and making of the belt make you see why and you'll definitely get your money's worth out of it! A note on size: I am a IO size 4 (between US size 8/10/Medium), and the belt fit fine. However, the ties don't dangle down my waste like in the model picture. They tie with more than enough room, but the ties land sort of right below the belt (a short knot). It still looks adorable, but I guess the models in the picture just have littler wastes. The secret key-hole on the side is genius! You don't have to retie the knot over and over throughout the day; it stays tight all day long. Also: this is a belt you can wear after pregnancy, so it's a good investment. |

desperate to get 8.37.x for fedora - is there any news of even an approximate date - looking on the website 5 times a day is a pain.
If there was a way of knowing that it wont be at least for a couple of weeks my sanity might be saved. I am guessing this might be covered in your forthcoming article?
cool, that helps. its the only thing not working (including wireless and fingerprint reader on my laptop, frustrating after using feisty fawn).
thanks very much, and fingers crossed for next week
Sorry for having gotten completely lost here - the last I tried it, F7 && fglrx == no workee due to F7's Xorg returning a version of (I think) 1.3.something as opposed to the 7.2.whatever that the driver was expecting.
How the heck did you get it to work; did you have to downgrade the X server, or ??
is there any way to solve the video playback problem with 8.36?
Beside waiting for 8.37
going back to 8.35 is what i did.
Just want to fill out the details on *how I got my ATI X1650Pro AGP card working *
I've update the bios to latest on the motherboard -- a good thing as I now can see both cores on my athlon 64 *woot*
Chasing around the one path that left me feeling warm and fuzzy was memory allocation.
I found 'no more mtrrs' errors on occaisions in the logs, and I noted that DRI would actually start -but teh screen would go black appearing to hang, and trying to kill the X server in that state inevitably lead to hard lock.
1) ATI Radeon X1650Pro (ati branded box)
2) 2*256Mb Heads
3) Gigabyte GA-K8NSC board
4) 1.5Gb DDR(single channel atm)
5) AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800
Bios on motherboard to F8 version - brought up second core on the CPU .. presented memory errors on two boots with AGP GART set to 64Mb and 128Mb in the BIOS.
Was able to boot several times with 128Mb AGP GART size set, bring X up in NoDRI "yes" mode -
I was still logging "no more mtrrs" messages in dmesg. Noted that **none** of the memory allocations in /proc/mtrr lined up - it looked like it was splitting my main ram to two allocations, and completely misreading the video card.
many many many reboots later I now have this
512MB AGP GART set in BIOS, *** the kicker here, was to add the feature to enable >4Gb ram on the motherboard. This closed up the MTRR allocation for my ram to ONE line.
in GRUB boot line video=vesa,ywrap,mtrr,vram:512 vga=791
in xorg.conf Option "MaxGARTSize" "512"
also in xorg.conf Option "NoDRI" "No"
for the record, this is all on the ati 8.37.6 drivers... but if wow behaves like this after I rebuild wine I'm gonna roll back.

Updated at 5:08 p.m.
Needing to clear a roster spot for newly acquired outfielder Jonny Gomes, the Nationals designated Matt Stairs for assignment today, likely ending the veteran's career after 19 seasons.
The Nationals signed Stairs over the winter, hoping even at the age of 43 he could provide a potent bat off the bench. But the pinch-hitting specialist never got on track, beginning the season 0-for-16 and finishing with a .154 average (10-for-65 in 56 games).
Baseball's all-time leader in pinch-hit home runs with 23, Stairs recorded only one extra-base hit (a double) and two RBI with the Nationals. His lone contribution of significance came July 1 against the Pirates, when he roped a run-scoring single off the right-field fence to secure a 2-1, walk-off victory.
"He never got sharp, and we never really got him sharp," manager Davey Johnson said. "And he didn't have the kind of productionRead more »

- Section 222 - Jul 27, 2011 at 7:23 PM
Yes @unterp I'm happy. Should have been done long ago. And no, I don't think this move means the Nats will make the playoffs. The legions of fans who cringed when Stairs came to the plate (much less started at 1B) never thought getting rid of him would be a silver bullet. We just couldn't understand why the team would waste a roster spot on somoene who couldn't hit, run, or field.

He'll be back . . . as a coach or manager.
- natsfan1a - Jul 27, 2011 at 7:25 PM
Actually, I'm kinda sad for him, UNTERP. Despite how his career ended, if this is the end for him, Stairs did have noteworthy accomplishments over time, particularly as a pinch-hitter, and nobody can take that away from him. Also, despite the fact that his offense was not what we'd hoped for, the success or failure of a team never rests on one player, imho (that said, I'm confident that another scapegoat will emerge, this being the interwebz and all). I wish Stairs well whatever the future holds for him.

19 year career in the big leagues, he will have great stories to tell for years to come. Hope he managed his money well because that is 19 years of pretty hefty earnings. I also hope he returns in our organization as a coach. I believe he helped Storen earlier in the year and I imagine he was a resource in the clubhouse and dugout as well.That being said, I also could not understand why he continued to dodge the bullet so to speak. We were looking at Jordan Zimms offense stats on the scoreboard last night, higher batting ave. and more rbi's than Stairs which is really a joke when you consider Zimmnn is not even our best hitting pitcher.Back at it tonight, one less CF prospect on the board. Does that help or hurt us?

UNTERP – I'm never happy to see someone lose a job (with the exception of certain politicians and a few media types), but I am glad to see the Nats make a move that should have been made weeks, if not months, ago. Like Section 222, I don't expect Mr. Stairs' departure to lead to a quick, new ten-game winning streak. But replacing Mr. Stairs with Mr. Gomes is a huge upgrade, regardless of their respective BAs. Whatever faults Mr. Gomes may have as a hitter, fielder, or baserunner, he's clearly superior to Mr. Stairs as an all-around baseball player. As the Nats strive to maintain respectability (and that's about all we can really expect with the remainder of this season), Mr. Gomes will give the manager many more — and much better — options that did Mr. Stairs. I wish Mr. Stairs well in retirement (or whatever new career he chooses), but I'm happy to see him replaced on the Nats' roster.

If the Nats re-sign Gomes, Bernadina might be the odd man out next year.Figure the five outfielders will include:1. New cf (via deadline deal or offseason FA).2. Morse starting in LF (LaRoche at 1b)3. Werth starting in right4. Nix as good LH bench bat.5. Gomes as good RH bench bat.As we go forward, the interesting/troubling thing is that we could have a disconnect in personnel.Rizzo built this club on the Giants model, emphasizing pitching and defense. Davey Johnson prefers a Weaver-style team with a slugging Roenicke/Lowenstein tandem on the bench.I hope this club solidifies and is .500 or thereabouts. But if it goes south and Davey does not return, how will they construct next year's model?P.S. FWIW, MLBTR speculates that the Nats are the mystery team among the half-dozen in on Ubaldo Jimenez. That would not surprise me, especially after the failed romance with Greinke.Rizzo has often said that Ace 1A is the Nats' chief need. There won't be one on the market this fall, given that CC probably will re-sign and CJ Wilson probably will re-up with Texas.I love Ubaldo, but hands off Znn, Espi and Storen, please.

It was gonna happen, but good luck Matt. Just in time to help coach the University of Maine hockey team.As a teen-ager, hitting semi-pro ball against ex-Expo Spaceman Bill Lee convinced you that you could have a pro career—and you did. I was watching your Expo debut when you joined Larry Walker as the first two Canadians in the same ML outfield. You said you were proud of that—so were we!
- rmoore446 - Jul 27, 2011 at 7:35 PM
He had a great career but this had to happen. I would imagine his average as a pinch hitter this year was lower than the overall .154 but don't have time to check due to work.
- Scoohter - Jul 27, 2011 at 7:35 PM
OMG where are the GNatinals going to find another player like this? They had him RIGHT THERE, he was ON THE ROSTER, a big hairy left-hander with experience, and they just DUMP HIM???!??!??Next year, when the club is running Ross Gload out there as the stagger toward 100 loses again, you people will BEG to have Mahtt Stares back!He was just going through a rough patch and needed Lasik and new approach and to get a lighter bat and choke up, and he would have COME AROUND like he ALWAYS DOES because he is PROFESSIONAL who KNOWS how TO win. WHY is this SO HARD to SEE?????????? At least hold on to him and maybe he'll be a Type A and you get a draft pick!!And instead they get NOTHING for him, that's NOTHING, and nothing from nothing leaves … (carry the 1) … NOTHING!!!!! The trade deadline isn't for FOUR MORE DAYS and they could have at least gotten Tugboat Backman or SOMEbody for him, who is running this place??!!!!???Rizzo FAIL. >:-( I'm rooting for the Tigers now.
- Anonymous - Jul 27, 2011 at 7:37 PM
I am guessing that he may not be done. Given his track record, and, though his season has been woeful, he hit .250 in July (3 for 12), not terrible for a pinch hitting type guy, and he can still pull a walk now and then. There might be a spot for him on an expanded roster in September. dfh21

Stairs is probably already at the point that his full year's salary is guaranteed. And after an August in Syracuse getting his stroke back, he could get a September call-up.

Mr. Desmond, your official Whipping Boy dinner jacket has just arrived. Please enjoy the full vitriol of the blogging community.But seriously, I hope Stairs enjoys a well deserved cold one tonight and considers taking a coaching opportunity in the organization.
- JD - Jul 27, 2011 at 7:51 PM
IMO neither Nix nor Gomes will return next year. They are both filler type players which can always find in the off season; you don't sign them to multi year deals. Every once in a while you sign a player like that and you get surprisingly good results ALA Nix this year but his career numbers indicate that this is an exception which you have no right to expect to repeat. I disagree with the overall opinion on Upton. To me he is exactly the type of player you acquire on the low and the fact that he only has this year and next remaining on his contract is a good thing because it prevents you from being stuck with a bad contract if things don't work out. I wouldn't go crazy in a trade for him but I would do Detwiler + Peacock.

Scooter, Rizzo's biggest failing is probably that he does not have broad-based experience with fantasy baseball teams. Thus the need for fans who have such experience to share their know-how with him via posts to blogs such as this, with supplemental radio-show call-in advice also coming into play on as as-needed basis.Good call, NatInBeantown, though he may have to arm-wrestle Werth for the jacket.

My worry is that we buy high, not low, on him, and I think that would be a mistake. And imo, Peacock would be an overpay.

Stream of consciousness on Whally's retweet:Don't know how reliable Rosenthal is… Just finished listening to KLaw trash teams who overpay/overvalue relievers, including "closers"… Mattheus can develop as a closer… What is with the Twins??? Didn't they learn from last year? Do they think they are in contention? … Don't trade Clippard…
- Anonymous - Jul 27, 2011 at 8:29 PM
The Nats can live without Storen, they really need every day guys with upside. Span is likely one of those guys.
- Whally - Jul 27, 2011 at 8:31 PM
NatsLady – I think the theory about why starters or position players are worth more than relievers is just the sheer amount of time that they are in the game. A reliever gets in there maybe 70 innings a year; a good starter goes for 200 innings, and a position player might see 1,300 innings. So a good position player or starter is worth more than a great reliever. That is the theory, anyway (and I admit to buying into it).Law's point on overpaying is a little different: he thinks that small sample sizes for relievers make it impossible to predict with any confidence how one of them will perform over a two month stretch. So he thinks it is crazy for contending teams to pay a lot for a Heath Bell for the stretch run.For the Twins and Storen (if they are actually looking at him), they can at least project him over the next 4 years.

- Gonat - Jul 27, 2011 at 8:45 PM
I think this is a Davey move as Riggleman wasn't allowed to get rid of Stairs. Still think that a wiser move would have been to bring up a youngster to bring some youthful exhuberence.
- sjm308 - Jul 27, 2011 at 8:51 PM
Despite the fact that Rosenthal is wrong far more than he is right I would be excited to see Span here. If I had to pick a new closer right now its kind of a slam dunk for Clippard don't you think? I also agree that Mattheus and heck even our "wild child" could possibly develop. I mean where we are right now is the perfect time to see what others can do (if we do lose Storen). Its not like we are in the midst of a pennant race. Hoping that is not true next year.

sjm308 said… Wow – just saw tonights lineup over at MASN benching Werth, Desmond, Ramos, BernadinaWell, the Nats couldn't do any worse, hittingwise — except that Zim and Morse still seem to be hitting. And I see they are in there. Nix hit a homer last night, he's in. Espi hit the ball very hard last night, and he's in.Whether it's intentional or not, the non-performers of late are all benched today. I'm thinking that's a good thing at this point.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Jul 27, 2011 at 9:40 PM
Put me in the camp that nobody is untouchable here–Clipp, Storen, Desi, hell, FoF could go if the price were right. I have no problem trading a closer for an 150-game everyday player. Does anybody remember the Matt Capps-For-Ramos trade? How's that working out? Would more of you like to see Jesus ("E-2") Flores behind the plate for 120 games or so?
- Anonymous - Jul 27, 2011 at 9:57 PM
I think we could have traded Stairs to the Vikings for a 5th rounder and a player to be named later.
- NatsLady - Jul 27, 2011 at 10:34 PM
How about instead of innings, you looked at times the player touches the ball? Then relievers might be more comparable to outfielders…

So far I've found out that the machine indeed contains 4 CPUs so that I need an SMP kernel to use them all. Unfortunately, Debian Lenny only has a non-SMP vserver kernel for sparc64.
I have also read about people using openvz on sparc64 but all I could find were some rather dated packages supplying Etch kernels (2.6.18) for openvz with SMP.
So, first question solved. The second one remains: What would be the best virtualisation technique on this machine?

Senate Finance Committee rejects House-approved tax hikes
The House votes today on Senate Bill 152 to allow one casino with up to 5,000 video slot machines and 150 table games. Budget writers agree the casino will not produce revenue for the upcoming biennium, but could provide the state with $80 million in revenue from a licensing fee that Gov. Maggie Hassan included in her budget.
The House vote is expected to be close. The House has never approved casino gambling, although the Senate has done so a number of times.
The Senate, which is crafting its version of the state $11 billion two-year operating budget, has passed SB 152 but the finance committee has not included the $80 million in its budget and won't unless the House passes it, according to committee Chairman Sen. Chuck Morse, R-Salem, and a sponsor of SB 152.
Morse released a list of $28 million potential reductions in health and human service programs Tuesday which include $4 million to reduce the developmentally disabled wait-list for services. The reduction represents about 25 percent reduction in the money Hassan and the House included in the budget to eliminate the wait-list.
Hassan's decried the reductions.
"The cuts outlined today by Senate Republicans are nothing short of devastating for the health and well-being of the people of New Hampshire," she said. "From cuts to our plan to strengthen our mental health system, to cuts in funds for the developmentally disabled, to cuts for CHINS, critical access hospitals, community health centers, local communities and more, Senate Republicans have decided to ignore the calls of Granite Staters to restore our priorities and meet our fundamental responsibilities, opting instead to continue the irresponsible actions of the last legislature."
"The information distributed at this morning's executive session was intended to start the conversation on how we deal with millions of dollars in unrealistic estimates proposed by the governor and passed by the Democratic-controlled House," Morse said. "Going forward, the Senate will continue to make tough decisions based on honest revenue estimates and not in response to political gamesmanship."
While Senate budget writers proposed cutting $28 million from Health and Human Services, they increased spending in other areas, adding $20 million over the biennium for hospitals to match federal disproportionate share money, bringing the total to $40 million.
Senate budget writers decided to return $19 million to the Medicaid Quality Incentive Program for nursing homes which is matched with the same amount of federal dollars.
Charter schools fared better in the Senate Finance Committee than they did in the House.
The committee added $3.4 million to fund charter schools the state Board of Education has yet to approve.
The Senate Finance Committee hopes to finish work on its budget plan by next week and vote on it June 6.

Jewish Women Ceramicists from Germany after 1933
Cabinet Exhibition
In the early 20th century, women in Germany were finally finding
acceptance and visibility in the male-dominated field of art. Yet they
were still largely side-lined to the applied arts, such as textile
design, graphic design and ceramics, rather than being embraced as equal
players in the male-ruled field of the fine arts. With the rise of the
National Socialist regime in the 1930s, Jewish
women applied artists were among those whose work possibilities and
means of independent existence were threatened. Some had the foresight
to leave Germany and their timely exits saved their lives.
Margerete Loebenstein was a well-known ceramics designer and co-founder of the successful Ha�l ceramic workshop in Velten, around 25 miles north of Berlin. In 1933, she was denounced by the local National Socialist group for "subversive activities." Shortly thereafter, she decided to sell her company. Ha�l was sold, well below its value, to an NSDAP member who invited the young Hedwig Bollhagen to take over as artistic director of the workshops. Margerete Loebenstein left her German homeland to begin a new life elsewhere. This exhibition follows her to England and shows her attempts to re-establish herself as an artist.
Other Jewish women, who left Germany in the 1930s, settled in Palestine and worked in the field of ceramics. These skillful women chose Palestine for both ideological and pragmatic reasons.
Trained in Germany, they brought their technical expertise with them.
Moreover, they had sharp visual sensibilities, a strong sense of determination and the willingness to address the challenges of life in a new environment. What local clays are appropriate for pottery? How should the glaze recipes be adapted? How does one build a kiln? How can one communicate without knowing the local languages?
Hedwig Grossmann from Berlin, Hanna Charag-Zuntz from Hamburg and Eva Samuel from Essen are considered the founding mothers of modern Israeli art ceramics. As refugees and pioneers, they and their colleagues developed new ceramic traditions in Palestine and Israel. This exhibition looks at their work and at the influence of German ceramic traditions in the emerging State of Israel.
10 October 2013 - 1 June 2014
Libeskind Building, basement, Rafael Roth Learning Center
with the museum ticket (8 euros, reduced rate 3 euros)
This exhibition of the Jewish Museum Berlin is part of the Berlin theme Year "Diversity Destroyed: Berlin 1933-1938." The Museum is also participating in the theme year through the online project "1933: The Beginning of the End of German Jewry."

Toy Story 3 trailer online
Everybody is going to have something to say about this, for sure, so be certain to comment and have your opinion heard!
What stands out for me is the animation —it's brilliant. I wasn't expecting such a stark advancement from Toy Story and Toy Story 2. Technically and visually, Toy Story 3 is going to be miles ahead. It's going to be a rollercoaster of a movie, especially in 3-D.
Notice how everything that should be more fluid is, like the human characters and Woody in particular, but within reason so as to not diverge excessively from the look and feel of the first two films. However, a discerning viewer will still be able to recognize a difference.
The trailer also does a good job of explaining the plot without giving away too much. Going off to college is often a sentimental experience for everybody involved so it's good that that was emphasised for audiences. The first half runs on emotion, wonderfully anchored by the Randy Newman melody "Losing You" playing in the background.
If there was an Oscar for Best Motion Picture Trailer of the Year, this trailer would probably be a strong contender. It's certainly one of Pixar's very best, right up there with the second trailer for A Bug's Life, with its epic intro to the sounds of The Who's "Baba O'Reilly".
Expect a second full-length 'TS3' trailer sometime in the first quarter of next year. A good bet would be with Walt Disney Pictures' live-action Alice in Wonderland, out March 5.
Toy Story 3, Pixar's eleventh animated feature film, directed by Lee Unkrich, arrives in North American theatres on June 18, 2010.

I got to see one of the leaked versions yesterday and I was blown away. I definitely noticed the difference in animation, especially the facial animation in the humans. Also, I was glad to hear that Slinky Dog does not sound noticeably different to me. It didn't even cross my mind the first time I saw the trailer. And of course, the reseting of Buzz was absolutely hilarious.
This is certainly one of their best trailers. It sells the movie as both an emotional experience and a comedy/adventure, which is what all Pixar movies are but too often it seems the trailers only represent the latter half. But this is great. I seriously can't wait to see this movie. - October 12, 2009 at 11:52 AM

If you go to apple.com to see the trailer in HD (http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/toystory3/hd/), the quality is startling. I definitely agree that it keeps the original feel of the characters while still showcasing the incredible advancement in the technology over the last 15 years. The movie is going to be awesome.

Definitely agreeing with acooper2. My beef with the Up commercials and trailers was that they just sold the movie as being "FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY! Funniest movie in America! #1 comedy!", and not in any ways preparing you for what ended up being such an emotional ride. The sentimentality of the TS3 trailer is great, and the way it goes from emotional to comical is done in a very Pixar-esque fashion.

Did anyone catch Andy's calendar (turned to August)? It has a picture of a non-anthro Snot Rod on it. Also, he still has the "I want you to join Space Rangers" poster he got when he was (how old was he in the first movie, 8?). Also, seeing Molly Davis at my sister's age was cool. I relate to Andy in more ways than one.

Some other things -
Slinky Dog (as confirmed by Lee Unkrich today via video on FB and Twitter) is being voiced by Blake Clark. Apparently, he was the longtime friend of Varvey that Lasseter referred to in an interview back in July. Clark was a fan favorite for years and several people pointed out how much he sounds like Varney.
In the trailer, a few nuggets also to point out besides SnotRod (good eye Jordan!): Boost (I think) is also on a poster in his room, Buzz's batteries are Buy 'N Large, right before one of the kids pick up Buzz in the daycare, on his behind is Disney/Pixar, if you look at the map above Andy's bed there are 2 post-it notes - 1 in california and 1 on Florida (bets on whether those are there because of Walt Disney World and Disneyland or Pixar Animation Studios locations?), there is a postcard on Andy's board that is addressed to Carl and Elli Fredrickson...
I think that's it! Anyone else spot any others?! - October 12, 2009 at 8:05 PM
- Jordan said...
@ Leirin: If he turned 5 in the first film (he looked older than that), then he is 8 in the sequel?
@ Anonymous #?: I had heard about people saying they saw that, and I've paused and examined Andy's shelf there before, but I never noticed that postcard until you pointed it out. What if Carl and Ellie Fredricksen are somehow his grandparents? Nah! That's crazy talk.
@ Kevin: Yes! I knew Blake Clark would be doing it. Thanks for the confirmation! - October 12, 2009 at 10:00 PM

Well, it looks like what I thought... much better then the original, but not quite as good (nearly there, however) as Toy Story 2.
This will be an instant winner for Best Animated Feature. I mean instant. - October 13, 2009 at 9:34 AM

Jordan: He turns six, I think--he's nine in TS2.

Ooh that was amazing!!
And I'm Max, this would probably be eligible next year? Maybe not? - October 14, 2009 at 3:36 PM
- Brandon said...
Simply amazing!! And I love how you can find Pixar secrets just in the trailers! Buzz's batteries say buy n' large, and there's a doc hudson poster on the wall.
Man, this trailer is sadder than any actual movie I've ever seen. I can't believe it's finally coming. - October 14, 2009 at 5:09 PM

I have a different opinion. I liked the Teasers of the Double Feature more than this trailer - they were more charming.
The beginning of the trailer is quite moving, telling the "story" of Andy and his toys. But the latter part has something of a Rat-Pack-Feel to it. It's just about cracking jokes, Woody being stressed out by Buzz, expressions as usual.
After like 10 years together in Andys Room you'd expect some progression in their characters and in their behaviour towards each other...
Sure, you can say "it's just a movie". But I expect more from Pixar. They handled it well with Toy Story 2 in my opinion. There was absoluteley a progression of the characters.
But I have hope, because the first Ratatouille-(teaser) trailer was also worse than the following ones. And the movie had been awesome!!! - October 14, 2009 at 9:46 PM

In Hispanic, he probably is saying "Buzz Lightyear to Star Command," and "To infinity and beyond!" It would've been funny if he said "To infinity and even further" like that Buzz robot did in the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command episode, "Lost in Time."
And speaking of BLOSC, for anyone's interest, many episodes are now up on Youtube. - October 15, 2009 at 10:11 AM
- Mike said...
There is no such language as "Hispanic". There's Spanish, but it sounds like Spanish Buzz is speaking Catalan or something in the trailer becuase I speak/understand Spanish fluently and I have no clue what he's saying.
The second shot of him speaking in a foreign language sounds like Japanese. - October 15, 2009 at 4:20 PM
- PixarFanatic said...
Ooops, sorry. Some guy said it was Hispanic, and that sounded strange. I thought it was Spanish too.
"TO INFINITY... AND EVEN FURTHER!" - October 15, 2009 at 4:38 PM
- Anonymous said...
Yeah, but he says "espania" in the first shot. Maybe it's spanglish (spanish and english...), yeah the second one sounds like japanese. Haha.

I know older graphics are not really supported anymore, but how does this changes affect older graphics?, did anyone compare it with PTS?
I'd love a bit more performance out of my 945GME but I know it's difficult.
Anyone knoes if only the codepaths of sandy bridge are updated?, can this be "ported" to older hardware?
I'm going to speculate the reason Linux driver performance is now so close to Windows is because Windows driver doesn't expose full potential. The latest graphics driver for Windows, 2361 claims up to 43% benefit in the games tested: http://downloadmirror.intel.com/2003...se%20notes.pdf
Someone also benched it and verified the results, although the gains are lower, its still there: http://communities.intel.com/message/124739
Here's what the release note claims: "Hardware Transform and Lighting support in OpenGL added. Increases performance in certain
OpenGL applications."
That sounds similar to the Linux patch for enabling 60 VS threads, doesn't it?
I just got a new sandy bridge laptop, can't wait for this kernel The performance of these integrated graphics is already seem faster than my dedicated ati card was in linux.
What was your dedicated ati card? Can you be more specific about the performance?
I know there was a joke somewhere but I am seriously wondering about Intel's graphics support w/ Sandybridge especially when it concerns laptops.
The integrated Intel gpu in say i3-2410? How is the support?
I was actually wrong that my laptop was a sandy bridge, mine is one gen before that (Arrandale) The processor is an i5 460m
And support has been excellent. My old card was a 512mb hd2600. Felt like garbage in linux compared to this. I also have vaapi working perfectly with VLC player without having to do any dicking around, I haven't had a problem with the graphics yet.
I'm running gnome 3 on it and its super responsive and great for web browsing/video. Scrolling was total garbage on the ati card with any compositing enabled, with the intel card I can use smooth scrolling in firefox/opera/chrome with no issues, just as smooth as windows.
Ok, something in my system should be wrong.
I have seen reports from phoronix on i3-2100 with 2.6.39 openarena 800x600 tests at 180fps.
My system can only run 110fps with mesa from git.
What am I doing wrong?

Many nutrition experts suggest that the rising incidence of health problems in people is due to changes in our diet. In past generations, fruits and vegetables made up a much larger portion of our diets, and researchers are just beginning to understand the vital qualities plant foods have that protect us from disease. Our pets' diets commonly mirror the state of our own, and as a result, many commercial pet food formulas lack the nourishing, vitamin-rich, plant-based ingredients that are present in the diet of wild canines and felines.
Without the benefits of the grasses, fruits, and plant material their wild counterparts get from eating their herbivore prey, our pets are developing "human" health problems at alarming rates. Fortunately, Only Natural Pet Super Daily Greens can help you reverse this trend by getting health-building greens into your pet's diet. A daily dose of this powerhouse powder can offer your pet a world of good health.
The Greatness of GreensGreens are super foods rich in vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other nutrients. They assist the body in detoxification, and in healing and repairing tissues. They contain a wide array of amino acids in an easy to assimilate form. Greens help create a less acidic internal environment, and help the body in becoming more pH alkaline balanced. They also provide enzymes that help with digestion, and help provide oxygen to cells.
What is the key to the vibrant health-nourishing quality of greens? Chlorophyll! Greens get their color from their high chlorophyll content. Chlorophyll is a natural cleanser and is often referred to as nature's "green magic." Research consistently demonstrates that natural chlorophyll from plants may help reverse a wide array of health disorders affecting many organs, including the skin, intestines, and liver, as well as helping to normalize cardiovascular functions, and helping the body overcome obesity.
Grasses Greenest - Wheat Grass and Barley GrassAstounding amounts of vitamins and minerals are found in grasses, and we included an ample supply of them in the Super Daily Greens formula. These are easily assimilated throughout the digestive tract, giving the body instant access to vital nutrients. These potent greens can promote detoxification, improve digestive system functioning, promote cellular health, and normal blood sugar levels, promote cardiovascular wellness, help the body remove heavy metals from the bloodstream, and cleanse the liver.
Gifts From the Sea - Spirulina, Chlorella, Dulse & KelpThese algaes (Spirulina & Chlorella) and sea vegetables (Dulse & Kelp) contains rich amounts of vitamins, trace minerals and vital health co-factors like beta carotene and essential fatty acids. They contains an excellent supply of easy-to-digest vegetable protein without the fat and cholesterol of meat, and offer a complete set of essential amino acids.
Grandma's Greens - Broccoli, Kale & SpinachGrandma got it right in encouraging us all to eat these greens – they're rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and many phytochemicals recently identified that offer health protective benefits. Contemporary research has demonstrated strong antioxidant and cellular health maintenance properties of cruciferous veggies like broccoli and kale. Spinach is loaded with antioxidants, Vitamins A & C and calcium, and has the same health protective properties as the other greens on our grandparents' dinner table.
Berry GoodnessOkay, they aren't actually green when they're ripe, but berries earn a top ranking as honorary greens in our Super Daily Greens formula. Research shows that berries are among the fruits highest in antioxidant content. They are rich suppliers of several phytochemicals that are believed to help maintain cellular health. All berries are an excellent source of vitamin C, and their plant leaves carry health benefits as well.
Cleansing Herbs – Burdock and NettlesRich in phytonutrients, vitamins and trace minerals, these unique leafy herbs are included in the recipe for their many health-supportive properties. Burdock is known for its blood cleansing, skin-supportive, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Nettles are immune system supportive and help the body eliminate waste through the urinary system.
Plant Enzymes – Papain & BromelainRounding out the Super Daily Greens formula are two more honorary greens, papain and bromelain, proteolytic enzymes found in papaya and pineapple respectively. These botanical extracts help the body with digestion and help break down protein into amino acids for use in repairing tissues and maintaining the body. These healthy enzymes are known to ease digestive discomfort and are also believed to support the inflammatory response throughout the body.

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Only Natural Pet Super Daily Greens:
We add this to our dogs food for extra health benefits. It contains many types of greens to help maintain health. It must not taste bad because they gobble the food up. I feel they are getting extra doses of healthly foods.

Good product, but......
By Sandy
from Franklin, NC
I think the ingredients in this product are incredible and I love giving it to my dogs but I wish it were available in a chewable tablet form because if you have dogs that weigh 40 and 80 lbs that's a lot of powder to add to their food. Just for my 40# it would be 2 tsp per meal and that's just too much powder to mix in their food, it turns it almost completely green and I can't imagine that it tastes too good. If it were offered in a tablet form you could give it to your animals throughout the day as treats. So please make this incredible product in a tablet form!!

Helps stop grass eating!
By altavita
from Madison, WI
My 2.5 year old dog just started eating grass this summer. I tried feeding him pureed spinach but he wasn't a fan. This supplement was the perfect solution! Within a couple days he stopped eating grass. I ran out and he started eating grass again so time to stock up!
I love it!
By Dog Nut
from Cincinnati, OH
I have had this product for my Chiuahua for quite some time, and I love it! It is a very good vitamin supplement for her, and none are synthetic! I like how all the benifits are derived from whole food sources. It is easy to administer, I just take a tiny scooper and spinkle it on her food. She LOVES the taste!And she is very healthy. Clear eyes, a silky coat, strong muscles, and a strong immune system! I also love the fact that there are some greens in here that cleanse.I would recommend it for a dog of any age. Especially old dogs because of the high amount of the anti-oxidents in here.
Wonderful ingredients.
By Halley
from Valentine, NE
I mix this with my older cat's wet food, and he eats it right up. My younger cat doesn't accept anything mixed with his food. It seems to be easy on the system, and the ingredients look like great nutritional support from high quality vegetable sources.
Good product
By Cocker Mom
from Louisiana
When I saw the ingredients listed in this product I couldn't wait to purchase it. I gave the amount according to his weight and mixed it in yogurt. He didn't want to eat it. I then mixed it in canned food and he still didn't want it. I wish it came in tablet form or capsule form for easier administration. I put his Get UP and Go tablet in a spoon of canned food and he eats it right up.

Helps dog who likes to eat grass. In the winter there is no grass to eat but my dog still looks in all her favorite places this helps with her need to eat grass.
I will not buy again
By Barbara J.
from Quakertown, PA
I liked the ingredients listed and administered as directed to my 3-year-old Longcoat Chihuahua. Even though I started with the minimal dose, my dog began scratching at his ears and eyes.I had not changed any of his foods, I just added the supplement.Thinking his scratching might be temporary, I continued with the minimal dose. By the 5th day, he was scratching almost non-stop.I discontinued the supplement and within 3 days, he was no longer scratching.Two weeks later [on the same diet as before] I started using the supplement at minimal dosage again. Within two days, he started the scratching again and I stopped the Super Daily Greens. Again, his scratching stopped within a few days.I know he is not allergic to Barley, Wheat, broccoli or spinach, so one of the other ingredients is what caused the side effects.I think Super Daily Greens should come in a sample supply that would have meant less cost and not having to throw away the product.

My dog loves it, even by it's self
By Eskie Mom
from Seattle, WA
Feeding my dog a raw food diet, I needed a source of greens to add. Bought this and just on a whim to see if she like the taste I took a 1/4 teaspoon and mixed it with water and gave it to the dog, she drank it up like it was the best thing on earth. I add it to her food or water now and we have no problems, she loves it.
Good Blend
By EquineLady
from Pennsylvania
This is a very good blend of greens and I am happy to have found it. I got it on sale so the price was very good for the quality of the blend. None of the cats I have fed it to have minded the taste - some really enjoy it. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good mix of greens.

AngelaSan Francisco, CAHairMedium BrownNormal HairThick or Coarse HairGreat... When It WorksAfter using the same BaByLiss dryer for 6 years, I was ready for something a little more powerful and purchased this hair dryer on Amazon.com through Folica in November 2012. A few months ago the dryer wasn't getting as hot as usual and was extremely loud. Something was obviously wrong, so I sent it in for a replacement. Folica and Sedu were prompt about sending me another dryer which was great. I've used the second dryer maybe 20 times since receiving it. I dry my hair once a week and it sits in my bathroom drawer untouched. The other day, within 30 seconds of turning it on, I heard a loud popping sound and a rattling. Again, the dryer is exceedingly loud and not getting hot. I am so annoyed that I now have to go through the hassle of paying to send the dryer back, be without a hair dryer for a few weeks, and pay for replacement shipping. There is no reason a hairdryer this expensive should break as often as this one does, especially considering how lightly I use it. I went back the old, cheap BaByLiss dryer I've had for 6 years that still works like the day I got it.
That said, the dryer is great when it works. It gets pretty hot, the cool function works quickly, the air flow is strong, and the cord is long. In hindsight, I wish I would have purchased a lighter hair dryer as this one is somewhat heavy, but not unbearable.
I'm glad the dryer has a 2 year warranty and I can get a replacement, but this is getting ridiculous. My next dryer will definitely NOT be a Sedu. I would not recommend this dryer to anyone and highly recommend going with another brand.posted Nov 1, 2013Link to this post -
AngelaNyHairMedium BrownNormal HairVery Disappointed.I got this dryer after all the crazy good reviews but unfortunate people
Forgot to mention that is SO heavy and big that is so hard to work with
The cord is short and it doesn't seem to strong as everybody says.
This was my dream hair dryer but tomorrow it's going back to folica.
Love you sedu. But I need you lighter and ionic !!!

Patti E.HairBlondeNormal HairColor Treated HairJust What I Was Hoping ForI want to thank the person who's review stated not to be fooled by the amount of watts.

I am extremely pleased and have just purchased another for my daughter!!!!!posted Oct 22, 2013Link to this post
LaurieCA, USAHairBlackOily HairThick or Coarse HairGlad I Splurged For My SeduI've been using the Revolution 6000i for over two months now, and I quite like it. Needless to say, my retired 15-yr.-old Conair can't compete with today's hair dryers. I have thick, straight, long Asian hair that suffers flyaways more than frizz. I appreciate the Sedu's setting options (cool/low/high heat, hi/lo speed, ionic on/off) but mostly leave the unit on high heat/hi speed/ionic, which leaves my hair dry, smooth, and shiny in less than 10 minutes without making my head feel uncomfortably hot. My hair is typically dripping wet at the ends when I turn the dryer on, and the ends are barely damp when I turn it off. In addition to the high price point, downsides are that the unit is a bit heavy (though not weighty enough to be a deal breaker for me) and how easy it is to accidentally change the settings mid-use. The controls are located on the handle, and for lack of better terminology I'll describe them as teeter-totter switches (vs. sliders). I tend to inadvertently turn the speed from hi to low when I adjust my grip on the handle, but it's easy enough to flip the switch back to my desired setting. I am very happy with my Sedu. One extra note: I am very impressed with the Revolution 6000i's packaging—nicely designed and great quality, much like the product inside.posted Oct 13, 2013Link to this post
KimChicagoHairDark BrownDry HairCurly HairHigh Power & HeatDon't be fooled by the lower wattage! I have long frizzy curly hair and my 2000 watt dryer just bit the dust. I was apprehensive to order this dryer as the wattage is much lower; however to my surprise this dryer is very hot and powerful. My drying time is greatly reduced. My hair is left sleek and frizz free. Love this dryer!posted Sep 24, 2013Link to this post
Holly G.FloridaHairDark BrownDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairGreat DryerI ended up buying this dryer after reading the reviews. This is a lightweight dryer which helps me a lot since I have a bad neck and back and because it dries my thick hair a lot faster it helps to alleviate the pain from holding my hands over my head and standing for a long time.All the ones I have previously owned were too heavy and just did not dry my hair well. This dryer got hot enough but didn't make my hair frizzy.
My stylist made several suggestions about buying a better and more expensive flat iron and hair dryer.. glad I listened to her and glad I found this website. Some things you just can't skimp on and expect a good outcome This was a great deal with the offer of trading in the old hair dryer (what a smart idea). Thank you Folica for carrying so many great brands and at good prices, with a great incentive.. 5 stars to youposted Sep 18, 2013Link to this post -
Donna B.BostonHairMedium BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairLove It!!I have had the Super Solano for years and it broke so I wanted to try something new. I absolutely love this dryer! I have wavy thin hair and this dryer allows me to blow it straight and keep body to it. It looks smooth and shiny when I'm done. I absolutely love it!!posted Aug 20, 2013Link to this post
Hayley M.United StatesHairBlondeNormal HairOily HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairGame ChangerThis hair dryer changed my life. I had been toying with the idea of spending money on a professional hair dryer for a while and couldn't seem to bring myself to spend the money. I bought it when Folica had a summer promotion going on so it was a little cheaper. (They have promotions for different things all the time so hold out if you must, though I recommend purchasing this tool immediately.)
The heat settings are awesome. I use the "cooler" one (not the cool button), because the hot one gets really hot, which I imagine would be useful for someone with a lot of thick hair. There are two speed settings, I use the slower one, which is still pretty fast. The cool button is great because you don't have to hold it down, just press and it will stay cool until you press it again.
This dryer literally cut my blow drying time in half. I'm able to style my hair, which is naturally straight, without having to go over it with a straightener afterwards because it does such a great job. My hair is shiny, smooth, and looks overall healthier. The hair dryer itself probably isn't the lightest one available, but it isn't heavy.
I highly recommend this hair dryer if you are serious about having great looking hair. If you want your hair to look frizzy, take forever to dry, and damage it, just stick with your regular old drug store dryer. I never want to own another hair dryer after using this one. If I could give it 100 stars I would!

Robin S.United StatesHairDark BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairBetter Than The 4000iI was debating whether to get another 4000i when my last one started fading or getting the 6000i. After much back and forth I chose the 6000i and I'm glad I did. It works better than the 40001 and my hair gets straighter and a bit shinier. I still haven't found a dryer that makes my hair stick straight and not frizzy at all, but this one is pretty good.posted May 19, 2013Link to this post

Understanding Evidence-Based Practice
Translating Research into Professional Practices
Translating Evidence into Clinical Practice
The Choosing Wisely® campaign was launched in 2012 by the American Board of Internal Medicine as a way to spark conversations to improve care and minimize unnecessary testing. The goals of the campaign are to ensure that care is supported by evidence; not duplicative of other tests or procedures already received; free from harm; and truly necessary (ABIM Foundation, 2014). Many organizations have released recommendations in support of the campaign – a full list is available here.
Systematic reviews, especially with meta-analysis, are often considered scholarly works at the top of the pyramid (See the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine for example.) This is because they typically combine randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that may be limited by small sample sizes, enabling stronger conclusions to be better derived. Yet, this seemingly golden offering of scholarly literature may have its limitations. A systematic review by Boyd, Quigley, and Brocklehurst (2007) on donor breast milk for preterm infants compared to formula is a frequently quoted reference on the subject. The seven studies examined included five randomized controlled trials. The section of the review that receives the most ongoing attention in the literature is the combined effects of three of the studies by meta-analysis on the variable of confirmed necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a complication of high concern in premature infants. This analysis combined two RCTs and one observational study. Separately, the sample sizes for these studies ranged from 39 to 162; the combined sample size became 268. Individual study results did not meet the minimal level of statistical significance of p=0.05. Combined evidence from these studies created a relative risk (RR) of 0.21, 95% CI of 0.06-0.76, p=0.017. The conclusion was that donor milk reduces NEC by about 79% compared to formula. At face value, this is an enticing result. Why the worry? The concerns with this analysis are partially acknowledged by the authors. The articles used for this study are dated no later than the early 1980's with data from the 1970's and the beginning of the 1980's. Babies included in the studies were 30-33 weeks of age and 1310-1954g, much larger than the premature infant surviving today in our neonatal intensive care units. These studies involved non-fortified milk and exclusive feeding of the control and treatment groups. This too is contrary to today's practices as fortification is much more the standard practice now. One of the authors (Quigley) went on to perform an updated review. This review (Quigley, Henderson, Anthony, McGuire, 2007) is published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, a much revered source of scholarly literature. Here five studies were combined in meta-analysis with the addition of a more recent study (Schanler, 2005) of sizeable impact. Unlike several of the other comparisons in this document, the heterogeneity is assessed to be low (I2 of 0.00%) and results favored donor breast milk, with a RR of 2.46, 95% CI 1.19-5.08, p=0.015. This confidence interval was much better than some of the singular studies that reported such wide variances as 0.11 to 60.38. Yet, more limitations exist in this review. Growth restricted preterm infants that are already at high risk for NEC were noted here as excluded. Again, many of the studies came from the pool described in the article by Boyd and colleagues and infant size and age along with the fortification issue remain. Preparation of the donor milk may also have differed in the early studies compared to today. In summary, the golden scholarly product is tarnished. A final note is that evidence reviews cannot end with the statistical analysis. Donor milk costs $3.50 per ounce or more via standard milk banks. Cost effectiveness needs to be evaluated in order to make this costly recommendation. Given the limitations of the literature and the cost involved, a local team of experts decided against widespread adoption of donor breast milk for premature infants.

Tony Rock
Performing Artists (Click on Artist for Reviews and Previews
Born in the same Brooklyn, NY hospital where most of his seven brothers and one sister found their way into the world, Tony Rock was born laughing. He grew up in one of the toughest neighborhoods in New York and developed a natural knack for entertaining.
"On a daily basis I'd see a dozen characters (and I emphasize the word characters). One moment, I'd be fighting for my life. The next minute I'd be laughing hysterically. There's a lot of drama in the city and I took it all in."
Tony has been performing for years and he has gained a reputation as a young star in the making. The Hollywood Reporter recently picked him as one of the hot young talents to come out of New York.
Tony just finished shooting the film "Three Can Play That Game" with Vivica Fox in Atlanta and recently wrapped his fourth season of "All of Us" on the CW, playing the role of Dirk Black. He starred in the films "Life Support" with Queen Latifah, and "Homie Spumoni" with Whoopi Goldberg and Joey Fatone. He is currently featured on the TV screen as the host of TV One's "The Funny Spot".
Tony's stand-up comedy talents were showcased in the recent revival of "Def Comedy Jam" on HBO. He was previously the host of "Can You Tell?" on Oxygen, and a feature reporter on "Battlebots". He's also been featured on Howard Stern, Extra, and Craig Kilborn. Tony can be seen headlining comedy clubs across the country, including Caroline's, the Apollo, the Laugh Factory, and the Comedy Store.
