Brock captured a Zubat when he spotted it on his way inside the cave but its capture was not seen on screen. He later sent out Zubat to battle Team Rocket. He rarely used Zubat for direct combat, instead focusing on confusing opponents with Supersonic.
In Johto Brock encountered a doctor who had a female Zubat. Brock used his Zubat in a fight against Team Rocket. While battling, Zubat evolved into a Golbat. Brock's Golbat was only a Golbat for a short period of time. He soon evolved into a Crobat in another battle with Team Rocket.

On "Summit Day," PH patient Kellie Tasto (pictured in a plaid cap) gathered family and friends for a walk honoring her specialist, Dr. Frantz, and celebrating the Path to a Cure climb team's overall success. The walk was preceded by an online virtual Unity Walk, which Kellie organized. The Twin Cities walk participants, dubbed "Kellie's Krew," raised over $1,700 to support the climbers and their campaign.
Kellie describes this memorable evening:
"We had a beautiful evening for a moonlit walk through the woods on Friday, February 26, in support of the Kilimanjaro summit day. We were thrilled to have about 40 family members and friends join us as we hiked one mile up and down hills, through the woods, to a cozy little cabin. After warming up, most made the one mile trek back by foot, while others (PH'er and little ones) enjoyed a ride back to the house.""It was a fun-filled evening in support of a great cause!"

The Dixie Classic Farmers Market, located at the Fairgrounds, is open on Saturdays year-round, 6 am to 1 pm. Winston-Salem and Forsyth County has several other Farmers Markets open through November. Please check with your local Farmers Market for specific hours of operation.
Here are three reasons to buy local:
1. Better for the environment - Although grocery stores carry a wide variety of foods – many produce items found in grocery stores comes from other states or countries. The cost of transporting food across county (or the ocean) is expensive and burns fossil fuels (gasoline). Locally grown foods have a shorter commute to market!
2. Freshness, quality and taste - If you have not tried locally grown foods, you are missing out on foods that taste great, last longer, and are high quality. Local produce lasts longer (because it does not spend time being transported). Many local farmers follow sustainable growing methods that avoid chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
3. Buying local helps our local farmers and supports a stronger local economy - Buying locally not only helps support farmers and their families but also supports other businesses in our community where farmers shop and buy products. This creates jobs and supports local merchants and small businesses.

Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Clay Matthews (52) talks trash to San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick (7) after a sack during the third quarter of last week's 34-28 loss to San Francisco. / Kelley L Cox, USA TODAY Sports
GREEN BAY, Wis. - Clay Matthews on Thursday wouldn't reveal whether he was fined for his late hit on Colin Kaepernick or respond to San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh derogatory comments about him.
But for all the outside linebackers' attempts to sidestep questions about his hit on Kaepernick and the criticism from Harbaugh after the game last Sunday, Matthews when asked directly said he's not a dirty player.
"Next game!" Matthews said with a smile. "I'm an awesome player, not a dirty player."
Matthews acknowledged seeing Harbaugh's comments early this week comparing his tackle to the clothesline tackles of the 1940s, '50s and '60s that now are outlawed in the NFL. Harbaugh also chided Matthews for not being as tough as he purports to be because he used an open hand rather than his fist to slap at offensive lineman Joe Staley, who confronted Matthews after the tackle.
"Nah, I don't have any reaction," Matthews said of Harbaugh's comments. "I'm on to the next game."
Players usually know by Thursday whether the NFL has fined them, and Matthews presumably was fined for the tackle, which was penalized as a personal foul. He said he can recall only one other time he's been fined in five NFL seasons.
"Well, I had a facemask (penalty) in 2010 on Jay Cutler," he said. "Monday Night Football, when we had something like 17 penalties. It's all I can think (of) right now."
Pete Dougherty writes for the Green Bay Press-Gazette, a Gannett property.

the newer than i965 chipsets (i5 etc) are not covered at all by g3d right????
Phoronix: Intel Gallium3D Continues Seeing Changes
Last week I mentioned that it looked like Google was interested in Gallium3D for Chromium OS. That has turned out to be the case and the flow of changes to the community Intel Gallium3D driver has only continued to increase...
the newer than i965 chipsets (i5 etc) are not covered at all by g3d right????
Shouldn't it be Google squeezing?Basically Intel can squeeze better performance out of a Gallium3D driver than a classic Mesa driver for the older Intel integrated graphics they are using right now for their mobile Chromium OS notebook/netbook.
I think i965 as the driver name is meant to imply from i965 and upward, similar to how the r300 driver covers r300, r400 and r500.
I have a 965-based ultraportable ThinkPad. Too bad it can't run on the i915g code that Stephane is hacking on; I suspect that code will be looking quite good by the time Google is shipping that driver in production machines.
OTOH, the Intel-sponsored mainline i965c driver works extremely well here, with SNA. It drives Gnome 3 perfectly.
Well, the firt time i tried i915g from git it was really faster then classic mesa, the second time it featured about 35fps with extreme tux racer (this was about 2 weeks ago) while mesa did about 15.
Looking forward for new commits!
Please, please, please, make sure that LLVM is enabled in the driver even if it isn't the default. It clearly will be in anything Google ships, as that's the main reason to prefer the gallium driver right now. If you have to show the non-llvm version as well, ok, but don't leave the llvm version out completely.I'll be sure to deliver a fresh set of Intel Gallium3D benchmarks to see how it compares to the classic i915 Mesa driver.

fun sweater
This is a very pretty sweater, but you definitely need a long sleeve shirt to underneath because it is ITCHY on its own. Otherwise, I haven't had any problems with it snagging and, yes, it is sort of shapeless but I consider that being forgiving (especially after all the holiday cookies).
March 1, 2014
Loved this for the holidays
This is a fun blouse. Very pretty on and is flattering if you want to hide the flaws. Runs a little bit large. Must hand wash by itself because it will snag. Otherwise, a great buy.
January 17, 2014
I bought this sweater in red and in camel. A little disappointed because the camel colored one is a little darker than shown. It seems to be more of a champagne color on line but when I got it I thought it had more of a golden oatmeal color to it. Not as festive of a color as I was hoping but it's still nice.
December 19, 2013
Definitely Size Down...
I initially purchased this sweater online in Red, for upcoming holiday parties. As other reviews mentioned, the sweater is incredibly over-sized (and not in an attractive-wear-with-skinny-jeans-or-leggings sort of way). I exchanged the sweater in-store but was disappointed to learn the Red is only available online. I tried-on the Blue, in a size smaller, and it looks wonderful! The only issue I faced when sizing-down was that the sweater was a tad snug in my biceps. I don't have unusually thick arms, so I have to assume it is due to the construction of the sweater, but I am sure that the knit will give a little once wearing it. It is my opinion that the luster of the sequins is accurately portrayed in the picture; there's "some" sparkle without being obnoxious or something my 12-year-old would wear during a dance recital. Lastly, other reviewers seem fearful about snagging: I can't empathize with this fear… just stay clear of snag-worthy obstacles, just like you would with any nice article of clothing, and I think it will be fine! Definitely a keeper and can't wait to wear!
December 17, 2013
I wanted to love this...
Ok, on the website this is the perfect holiday sweater.....in real life it's a train wreck! Way oversized with no shape and loose knit that is guaranteed to snag. It looks and feels like a bad thrift store sweater. Soooooo sad!!!
November 29, 2013
Crew Neck Sequin Sweater
I personally really like this sweater. Yes, it might be a little looser fit bit I like that because I can wear it with skinny jeans or fitted pants. I don't think it's oversized to the point where it looks sloppy. I agree though that if you want the fit shown you would need to size down. I purchased this in the store and actually bought both colors-and maybe that's the difference because I knew what I was getting with this sweater. Yes, it's knitted and you will have to be careful not to snag it-in the store there's a tag that warns you of that. And yes, it's not glittery sparkly but to me that's ok because it means the sweater doesn't scream "party" and is versatile enough to dress up or down.
November 28, 2013
Nice slightly oversized holiday sweater
I bought this sweater on gold and love it! Although this sweater has sequins, it is relatively muted so you can certainly wear it to the office without feeling like a disco ball. It does run a little large however it makes a nice oversized sweater. It's warm and comfortable and I haven't felt any itchiness.
November 28, 2013
I'm surprised no one has n=mentioned the quality. While this sweater is beautiful, I doubt it will make it past this season bc of the high likelihood it while get snagged on something. Poor quality. I got this sweater and will be keeping it bc I got it on sale but don't think I would invest in it otherwise. If you want it to fit the way it is pictured on the model I would recommend going down a size. I got a small, which is what I typically wear in Limited tops and it has a tunic fit. Which I like.

Office Star Saddle Stool Review
The Office Star Saddle Stool features a unique way of sitting unlike most traditional office chairs, with its distinct saddle seat that aids in improving muscle strength, back pain relief, improving posture, and musculoskeletal disorder prevention. This saddle stool in particular is a highly affordable back pain solution that is adaptable for both home or office usage.
Many seek out to purchase a saddle stool to relieve their back pain that can often occur from sitting in a regular office chair for extended periods of time. Not only are saddle chairs helpful in relieving back pain they can also alleviate neck and shoulder pain along with related headaches. The larger angle between the hips and knees at 135° is a much more natural position to be in than the 90° angle, typically associated with sitting on a traditional chair. As a consequence, posture is improved and tension in the upper back and neck is reduced. The backless feature on saddle stools also eliminates pressure that is typically felt on users backs from leaning on a back rest, causing discomfort while sitting.
This saddle stool features seat angle adjustment that can adjust the front and the back of the seat, pneumatic seat height adjustment, a thick padded vinyl seat, and tilt tension control (controls the rate and ease with which the chair reclines for different weights and strengths of users.
Quick synopsis - affordable and comfortable to sit in for short periods of time. As with anything that is different and not what you are accustomed to, the saddle chair does take a bit of getting used to. I sat on the chair for 2 consecutive weeks, working my way up in time intervals until I was able to comfortably sit for up to 5-6 hours at a time. This is both recommended and encouraged for users who have not sat on a saddle chair before. I found that the stool relieved a lot of tension and stress that had been accumulating in my back as well as some headaches I had been experiencing. I also noticed that my posture had greatly improved and that this came naturally with no effort or thought required. The saddle stool naturally places you in the correct seated position, forcing you to sit upright and with your spine in perfect alignment. It was also very easy to use with the limited number of adjustments needed to properly adjust the chair and also was a good fit for my frame. Another benefit of this stool is that it is designed to fit individuals of varying heights and weights with its wide range of height adjustment and appropriately sized seat.
The Bad:
After sitting on the saddle stool for more than 2 hours at a time without getting up to take a break, I found myself fidgeting and trying to find ways to get comfortable. That being said, it is important to always take breaks every hour no matter what chair you are sitting in for various health reasons. The stool also took awhile for me to get used to sitting on; the saddle position can at first be awkward and takes awhile for your body to adjust to the concept of sitting in this position, especially if you are accustomed to sitting in a traditional office chair. I also found the vinyl seat to be a bit thin, perhaps if the seat foam was a little bit thicker it would be easier to sit on for extended periods of time.
This saddle chair is a great value for what you get, especially compared to similar items on the market that can sometimes cost two hundred dollars more in price. It is sturdily constructed and comes in a sleek black vinyl with a black plastic frame that will blend in to just about any office environment. It is almost certain that you will experience some level of back pain relief from sitting on the stool, with its backless design it does not put any pressure on the back that can often occur when leaning back in traditional office chairs. You will also find yourself sitting with improved posture that often carries on to overall better posture in your everyday life. If anything, it is a great complement to any office chair. If your back needs an hour or two of relief, you can quickly and easily switch between your traditional office chair and your saddle stool.
4/5 Chairs
Overall, the Office Star Saddle Stool is a great investment for those looking for an alternative seating solution or for those who have never had a saddle stool before. Between its health benefits it provides, ease of use, and affordable price point, this saddle stool is the perfect choice for anyone who is looking to find a quick way to relieve back pain at an inexpensive price.

The Benefits of Owning A Saddle Stool
Saddle stools are more popular now than ever before. They can typically be found in hospitals, clinics, hairdressing and beauty salons, veterinary offices, laboratories, architect firms, and in art industries. What once was a predominant form of seating solely in the medical industry is now quickly making its way into homes and businesses worldwide. While most used and seen in medical offices, particularly in dentistry offices used by both dental hygienists and dentists themselves, more consumers are becoming familiarized with what a saddle stool is and how it can provide them with back support. The main health benefits received by sitting on a saddle stool are improved muscle strength, back pain relief, improved posture, and musculoskeletal disorder prevention.
A saddle chair simply put is a stool with a saddle seat, very similar in look, design, and feel as an equestrian saddle. It does not have a back rest but does come with a five-star chair base with a pneumatic gas cylinder for adjusting the correct seat height. They have a small footprint conveniently fitting under just about any desk and into just about any work area of any size. One of the main benefits received from sitting in a saddle stool is improved muscle strength which is achieved by using both your abdominal and leg muscles to sit up straight. After using a saddle chair for just a few weeks you should be able to feel improved core strength and enhanced muscle tone, all from simply sitting correctly on your stool.
Perhaps the greatest health benefit received from sitting in a saddle stool is back pain relief that can often occur from sitting in a regular office chair for extended periods of time. Not only are saddle chairs helpful in relieving back pain they can also alleviate neck and shoulder pain along with related headaches. The larger angle between the hips and the knees at a 135° is a much more natural position to be in than the 90° angle, typically associated with sitting on a traditional chair. As a consequence posture is improved and tension in the upper back and neck is reduced. The backless feature on saddle stools also eliminates pressure that is typically felt on users back from leaning on a back rest, causing discomfort while sitting and especially when trying to focus while working.
Sitting on a saddle chair essentially forces you to have to sit with correct posture with the chair's design. It also prevents you from slouching and hunching, a common occurrence when sitting in a traditional office chair that is often overlooked by not being brought to your attention. You are much more likely to notice yourself slouching over in a saddle chair with your back not being supported, providing a constant reminder to sit up straight. By promoting good posture the stool is also improving blood circulation, your spine by putting it into a healthy lordotic curve, and digestion. Leg circulation is improved by your legs being in a more open position with no edge pressing behind the back of your knees as with a normal chair seat.
Musculoskeletal disorder is a condition where a part of the musculoskeletal system is injured over time typically occurring when the body part is called on to work harder, stretch farther, and impact more directly at a greater level than it is prepared for. Most commonly this is associated with repetitive stress injuries, one of the most common workplace injuries that can be attributed to sitting in a bad chair that causes strain over a long period of time. Saddle chairs reduce work related limb disorders such as pain and aching in the wrists, arms, and shoulders associated with regional musculoskeletal disorder, cumulative trauma disorder, and repetitive stress injury. They decrease pain and fatigue associated with muscular tension that often occurs from continuously sitting or typing in an unnatural position.
Saddle chairs take time to adjust to the new unique sitting style and it is recommended to only sit in for an hour or two a day to start while progressively increasing your sitting duration over a period of a month. They can also be used in conjunction with your current office chair or as an alternative seating solution when your back needs relief. Whether you want a saddle stool for the health benefits or because you want to try something new, you will surely not be disappointed when you make the switch.

Office Stools - The Different Types and Uses
A well designed office stool is one of the most critical elements of an ergonomic workstation, after all it will be the piece of furniture you use most throughout the day. Whether sitting in an office stool or office chair, prolonged sitting or standing in the same position throughout the day can cause discomfort and can even lead to unnecessary aches and pains. An ergonomically outfitted workstation coupled with an appropriate office stool to sit in and proper sitting posture can lead to increases in productivity and efficiency. With the vast amount of unique job professions and tasks out there, there are a myriad of office stool solutions designed to fit specific jobs. When deciding between all the different variations of office stools on the market, it is important to figure out what your individual office needs will be and how much time you will be spending sitting in your stool.
Saddle stools are among the most diverse stools out there, and break away from the traditional office stool mold with its distinct seat shape. A saddle stool features a different way of sitting with its seat shaped in the form of a saddle similar to one that you would see on a horse's back. This seating option works best for dentist or medical offices where the ability to sit in one sturdy position is helpful. For example, when a dentist is cleaning a patient's teeth and wants to stay in one place without having to slide around to get comfortable, a saddle stool would definitely be of use. With seat height adjustment and seat angle adjustment, saddle stools are also an ergonomic option as they have quite a few adjustments and aid the user in sitting with proper posture.
If you spend little time sitting down throughout the day and only require a stool for a few hours of usage, then a medical stool would be an adequate seating option. Medical stools are basic stools that come with a fabric, leather, or vinyl seat covering on top of a base with rolling casters. They are budget friendly, simple, easy to get around on, and a great choice if your job does not require much sitting. Medical stools are also compact allowing them to fit in just about anywhere without taking up too much space. As their name implies, these stools are mostly used in medical settings but are often found in schools, file rooms, home offices, and anywhere that an inexpensive seating choice is needed.
Many jobs require the need for seating that will permit the ease of transfer from a sitting position to a standing position in a quick fashion. A sit stand stool allows for quick adjustment from sitting down to standing up due to its extended seat height, and occasionally seat angle adjustment. The seat angle adjustment allows for a more ergonomic way of sitting and lets the user adjust from sitting to standing briskly. Sit stand stools are best for use in environments where workers stand for most of the day at higher workstations such as labs, pharmacies, or in production lines where little time is spent sitting.
Some job professions call for heavy-duty seating where a typical office chair or stool would not withstand, and damage resistant furniture is required. Industrial stools provide a high quality seating solution for factory, clean-room, laboratory, and other harsh environments where durability, damage resistance, and ergonomic seating support is needed. Most industrial seating stools come with a tough polyurethane material on the seat and back of the chair. Polyurethane withstands stains, spills, rips, and tears; ideal for even the toughest work environments.
Along with the aforementioned stools, there are many other office stools out there that serve a wide variety of purposes. When searching for an office stool, it is essential to know what kind of environment the stool will be used in as well as how ergonomic you need it to be. Also take into account how long you will be spending sitting on the stool everyday to determine ergonomic necessities and how adjustable you will need to the chair to be.

text: GeographyTanzania is in East Africa on the Indian Ocean. To the north are Uganda and Kenya; to the west, Burundi, Rwanda, and Congo; and to the south, Mozambique, Zambia, and Malawi. Its area is three times that of New Mexico. Tanzania contains three of Africa's best-known lakes—Victoria in the north, Tanganyika in the west, and Nyasa in the south. Mount Kilimanjaro in the north, 19,340 ft (5,895 m), is the highest point on the continent. The island of Zanzibar is separated from the mainland by a 22-mile channel. GovernmentRepublic. HistoryArab traders first began to colonize the area in 700. Portuguese explorers reached the coastal regions in 1500 and held some control until the 17th century, when the sultan of Oman took power. With what are now Burundi and Rwanda, Tanganyika became the colony of German East Africa in 1885. After World War I, it was administered by Britain under a League of Nations mandate and later as a UN trust territory. Although not mentioned in old histories until the 12th century, Zanzibar was always believed to have had connections with southern Arabia. The Portuguese made it one of their tributaries in 1503 and later established a trading post, but they were driven from Oman by Arabs in 1698. Zanzibar was declared independent of Oman in 1861 and, in 1890, it became a British protectorate.

FYI, in January of 2005 the 1960's Cold War drama Ice Station Zebra, starring Rock Hudson as a sub driver and Patrick McGoohan & Ernest Borgenine in supporting roles was finally released on DVD.
I bought a copy immediately because I REALLY like the first 2/3 of this movie and always wanted a copy. The transfer is well done and clean. The first 2/3 of the movie is spent preparing for and embarking on a rescue mission to the top of the world via a nuclear attack sub. The remaing 1/3 is handicapped by funky sets and model shots but it's still entertaining.
Just an FYI if you, like me, were wanting this for years.

Harang eyes payback as Angels hit Atlanta
Braves righty, who will oppose Wilson, was roughed up by Halos in '13
The Angels roughed up Aaron Harang in four meetings last season, tagging the veteran right-hander for 20 earned runs on 35 hits in 17 1/3 innings. His 10.38 ERA against the Halos paled in comparison to his 4.71 mark against other teams.
The visiting club's MLB-best 90-46 record in Interleague Play since 2007 also bodes well as the Angels begin a three-game set in Atlanta.
Unfortunately for the Angels, the Harang they will face on Friday night at Turner Field is not the same hurler who struggled mightily against them while wearing a Mariners uniform in 2013. His 11 quality starts in 13 turns for the Braves this season fall only one short of his 12 in twice as many starts last season.
His most recent quality start had the look of something special when he two-hit Arizona through six shutout innings on Sunday before melting down in the seventh.
Harang doubled his hit total by giving up knocks to Aaron Hill and David Peralta to lead off the seventh before walking Cody Ross. That ended Harang's night in what turned out to be a six-run inning for the D-backs.
"You've got to run him back out there," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said of his decision to leave Harang in for the seventh inning at Chase Field. "He's got a two-hit shutout. You've been watching it. We get into the seventh and [the bullpen] can't bridge it. So we tried to run him back out there and let him get us through that seventh inning somehow. He had some walks, but you felt comfortable that he could maneuver through the lineup. That seventh inning just unraveled on us."
So as Harang carries his 3.33 ERA -- which is nearly three-tenths lower than his career-best 3.61 mark in 2012 -- the Angels could use some history on their side as they try to return to their winning ways after having a five-game winning streak snapped with a 4-1 loss to the A's on Wednesday night.
The Halos have occupied second place in the AL West since May 13, and they send C.J. Wilson to the mound on Friday in a continued pursuit of Oakland.
Wilson will face the Braves and pitch at Turner Field for the first time as he tries to build off his last start. He limited the White Sox to only one run on three hits in 7 1/3 strong innings that earned him his seventh quality start in his past nine outings.
Angels: Club on upswing
Even after seeing its five-game winning streak end on Wednesday night, Los Angeles is only 3 1/2 games behind Oakland in the AL West. The Angels were 12 games out of first and 10 below .500 on June 14 last season.
Manager Mike Scioscia believes this year's results are more indicative of the team fans and media envisioned when the Halos added Albert Pujols, Wilson and Josh Hamilton in free agency the past two offseasons.
"I know I'm very excited to see how this team keeps improving and evolving through this season," Scioscia said. "I don't think there's anybody in that room that doesn't feel that we're going to contend for a championship, and that's what we want to do.
"You can talk about putting all the ingredients together and coming out here and playing hard and playing with confidence, but winning ballgames is that most important ingredient. That's what really builds the confidence of the club and moves you forward."
Braves: B.J. will battle history against Halos
B.J. Upton's batting average has fluctuated between .207 and .221 since May 23, as the Atlanta center fielder continues to try to rebound from a tough 2013. He'll head into Friday's matchup with a .210 batting average, after going 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBIs in a 10-3 loss to the Rockies on Thursday.
He will need to keep grinding this weekend due to tough numbers against Wilson and the Angels.
Although Upton's nine career homers against the Halos are his most against a non-divisional opponent, he is batting only .237 (44-for-186) against them. Worse, his clip against Wilson is .115 (3-for-26), with 13 strikeouts in 31 plate appearances.
But before overwhelming Upton's prospects against the Angels with the past, he has reached base safely in eight of his past 11 games at Turner Field.
Worth noting
• Braves catcher Evan Gattis enters Friday with a 12-game hitting streak. Gattis entered Thursday's game against the Rockies after Gerald Laird was injured in the eighth. Gattis' only plate appearance was in the ninth, when he was hit by a pitch, but official rules determined a consecutive-game hitting streak does not come to an end if a batter's only plate appearance results in being hit by a pitch.
• Pujols finished 2-for-4 on Wednesday for his first multi-hit game since May 24.

It is a pleasure to remember Mildred Cohn as a friend and scientist. Her pioneering use of oxygen-18 for probing enzymatic reactions of phosphate compounds served as a basis for my later investigations. She cordially shared her knowledge of methodology and readily participated in discussions of mutual interest. Much of what I and my colleagues were able to accomplish was made possible by her contributions.
Paul D. Boyer Nobel Laureate (1997) Emeritus professor of chemistry University of California, Los Angeles
Mildred Cohn was a brilliant, nationally and internationally respected scientist who was a wonderful role model for her fellow scientists, especially for women. In her quiet way, she broke glass ceilings and was an innovative leader in her field. She was one of a handful of scientists who attended the ASBMB 50th anniversary celebration in 1956 and the 100th anniversary celebration in 2006. At the centennial celebration, at the age of 93, she gave a priceless presentation, highlighting her career at the female scientists' reception. The presentation captured her resilience and clarity.
Judith S. Bond Professor and chair biochemistry and molecular biology The Pennsylvania State University
I first met Mildred Cohn at the International Society of Magnetic Resonance meeting in Israel in 1971. I was an associate professor of physics at the Indian Institute of Technology in Kanpur. My expertise was in nuclear spin relaxation in liquids. I was fascinated by the possibility of applying this technique to investigate some biological problems. At one of the conference lunches, I serendipitously ended up sitting next to Mildred and her husband, Henry Primakoff. During the lunch, I sought Mildred's advice about my desire to apply NMR expertise to biological problems, considering my unfamiliarity with biology. She said that it is possible to overcome the barrier with some effort and stressed the importance of collaborating with biochemists who can identify significant questions to answer. She mention)ed that she knew of physicists who used sophisticated methods to study trivial biological problems. This discussion was at the back of my mind when I wrote to her in 1972 about coming to her lab to explore my goal. She arranged a visiting scientist position for me, and, thus, a pivotal turn in my professional career occurred.
I started working in her group in December 1973. During the first six months, I was clueless as to how I could carve a niche for myself in this new field. Fortunately, Mildred knew how to communicate with and utilize the strengths of a physicist, and before long some significant results emerged.

If the Mammoth Lakes committee on trails has its way, future visitors to the townŌĆÖs trail system will do less head scratching and more learning.
The committee, made up of members from a variety of federal, state, and local agencies, along with nonprofit entities, accepted a sweeping, 92-page outline of how to enhance MammothŌĆÖs trails with a series of trail-side education pieces on Wednesday.
ŌĆ£This document is a great start,ŌĆØ said Jon Kazmierski, the recreation officer of the Inyo National Forest.
ŌĆ£It needs some refinement in detail but the authors did an excellent job of writing itŌĆöwhere we are, where the opportunities lie.ŌĆØ
The report is called ŌĆ£Interpretive Services PlanningŌĆöOpportunities for Interpretation along the Mammoth Lakes Trail System.ŌĆØ
It is an outgrowth of a study contracted in 2011 by the Mammoth Lakes Trails and Public Access Foundation (MLTPA), and was prepared by two local interpretive specialists, David Scott and Christie Osborne.
Their mission was to prepare and deliver a draft report and presentation on the opportunities available to interpretive programming on the trail system.
ScottŌĆÖs draft report, available for download on the MLTPA website (along with a PowerPoint presentation by Osborne), details how current technology can enhance and deliver interpretive information to the trail system.
The effort fits in nicely with current Forest Service planning, Kazmierski said.
ŌĆ£The Forest Service is in a major transition when it comes to interpretive programs,ŌĆØ he said.
Much of the interpretive education would be through signage, although other media pieces, such as information via smartphones, also would be at the ready for visitors who want to know more about what it is, exactly, that is before their eyes.
John Wentworth, the executive director of MLTPA, said both pieces are meant to guide and inform future efforts to incorporate educational materials related to local geology, arts and culture, biology, and other topics into the growing signage and wayfinding system.
The report itself is encyclopedic, but makes a clear distinction between information and interpretation.
Where information provides facts, interpretation tells a story that gives context and meaning to facts.
For example, a mere informational statement about Mammoth Rock might read something along the lines of ŌĆ£Mammoth Rock is made of marble, metamorphic limestone, which began as sea floor approximately 450 million years ago, was uplifted over a period of millions of years, and was eroded by glaciers into its present form during the last one million years.ŌĆØ
An interpretive statement, on the other hand, might read something along the lines of this:
ŌĆ£Mammoth Rock is a proud survivor. Born as ancient sea floor some 450 million years ago, it has endured millions of years of tectonic pressure and upheaval and even stood its ground during ice ages when glaciers scraped at and scoured it from all angles.ŌĆØ
According to the report, ŌĆ£both convey the idea that Mammoth Rock is made of old rock that has been eroded over time, but that idea is explained in different terms.
ŌĆ£Without going into great detail, the difference between the two is that the second contains less of the raw information that a geologist might desire, but more of the emotion and basic ideas that a non-geologist can relate to and appreciate.
ŌĆ£Whereas most people have trouble comprehending timescales measured in millions of years, everyone understands what it means to be born, to be a survivor of something, and to ŌĆśstand oneŌĆÖs ground,ŌĆÖŌĆØ the report states.
ŌĆ£While the second is less precise than the first, it is no less accurate. Admittedly, some precision has been sacrificed for comprehension. While such a sacrifice would be inappropriate in a scientific article, it is expected in interpretation.ŌĆØ
Whether the report will find traction or merely find space on someoneŌĆÖs shelf is unknown.
ŌĆ£My thinking,ŌĆØ said committee chair and Mammoth Town Manager Dave Wilbrecht, ŌĆ£is that youŌĆÖd want to consider allocating a certain amount of fundingŌĆöand I donŌĆÖt know what that number would beŌĆöbut you want to start embedding this in whatever it is you want to do.
ŌĆ£You have to have an intention and figure out how to pay for it. As projects move forward [the report] has to be embedded with those projects, whatever those projects are.ŌĆØ
The Forest Service already is one step behind, said Kazmierski.
ŌĆ£Our public information officer, Nancy Upham, has announced her retirement Jan. 4 and she has probably been the biggest champion of interpretation who is engaged in the Inyo National Forest, perhaps in its history,ŌĆØ he said.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre getting ready to lose a tremendous person and asset to interpretation and education. WeŌĆÖre not exactly sure how that gap is going to be filled, if the person who fills her position takes on those responsibilities or if they are going to be distributed elsewhere.ŌĆØ

Sonos Update Lets You Stream Tunes from iPhone
Play multiple streams directly from your iPhone
No, Sonos hasn't added AirPlay or Bluetooth. It's better. This is an update that can be added (via a free download) to any Sonos speaker or player and it works with the updated iOS app.
Sonos says that 60 percent of music purchased is bought directly on users' iOS devices (iPhones/Pads/Pods), and that music often stays on those devices because we infrequently sync with PCs. This update makes it easier to play downloaded music over a Sonos.
Searching for the best home music system? Get expert guidance FREE in this special report, Beyond Home Stereo Systems: How to Choose the Best Sound Bar, Audio Receiver, Music Server & More
First, you need to update the software on your Sonos speakers or players. You can do this via the Sonos desktop software. After that make sure that your iOS device is running iOS 6, the latest version. Then update the Sonos app.
While this sounds like AirPlay for Sonos, it's not, but it's actually a little better. With AirPlay you can only play one stream from your phone to your playback device. With this Sonos update you can play up to five separate tracks on separate Sonos zones in your home (the update actually allows for up to 12 unique streams and up to 32 players). It's also able to sync the music among multiple zones via its own network.
I tried the update this morning. The whole process, including updating the app, took about five minutes. Afterward I saw my iPhone appear as an option (called This iPhone) in the Sonos music menu. I went directly to Ben Folds Five Whatever and Ever Amen and played "One Angry Dwarf." It played without issue, sounded great, and I was able to play it Bonnie "Prince" Billy in a separate zone, streamed from the same phone. If you're a Sonos user, try it.
Electronic House is running a Sonos sweepstakes now. Enter to win a Sonos PLAY:3 system here.

When it comes to audio files, MP3 and Ogg will both likely be offered in the future... Many of you hate proprietary packages, but there are still situations I care about that make MP3 worthwhile. i.e. Easily listening to the file on a media player or other device that can't handle Ogg or those browsing Phoronix from work where they may be on Windows and are unable to install Ogg on their business machines. The percentage of Windows readers at Phoronix.com is much higher than you probably imagine.

Recycling at DU
Sustainability...your university, your world
One of the University's stated goals is to achieve financial, operational, human, and environmental resource sustainability. This is accomplished in part by practicing responsible environmental stewardship.
The mission of Denver University's Recycling Program is to implement a convenient, safe and cost-effective recycling program that is available to as many people as possible. We rely on participation and feedback from students, faculty and staff to continuously expand and improve upon existing programs, as well as to develop new recycling/sustainability initiatives. Since recycling at DU is just one action the institution and its members may take to increase sustainability, we strive to provide additional information about sustainable living so students are aware of how to lessen their environmental impact.
To this end, we will dispose of unwanted materials and equipment in an ethical fashion that protects both the environment and the people involved in the recycling efforts. Our practices will be fiscally responsible, and comply with all applicable state and federal regulations.
DU Recycles
The University of Denver's Recycling Program involves thousands of recycling bins located next to nearly every trash receptacle on the DU campus. The program from Altogether Recycling™ allows different recycling materials to be co-mingled in the same bin. The recycling company, Alpine Waste and Recycling, will sort the materials.
DU's custodial staff will empty large, centralled located bins. You must empty your own desk-sized bins into the closest larger recycling bin located in your department/building. The frequency of the larger bin pickups will vary from 1 to 5 days per week according to demand.
Please direct all recycling logistical inquiries (i.e., number of bins, size of bins, pick up issues), to the Facilities Service Desk through the online work order system or call 303-871-2200.

It began with the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve (DDCR). Working alongside the Dubai Government, Emirates established this reserve to protect critical desert habitat and a variety of endangered species – it is still the largest protected area in the UAE today. The DDCR was also the first conservation area officially protected in the UAE, with a constitution and environmental law dedicated to ensuring its status as a nature reserve.
The DDCR takes up a massive 225km2, or 5% of Dubai's total land mass, and also includes a leading conservation-based luxury resort. As well as protecting several endangered large mammal species, such as the Arabian and Scimitar-horned Oryx, the DDCR is a major contributor to both local scientific research and conservation efforts.
100% of all visitor revenue from DCCR is spent on conversation and wildlife care, with Emirates also sponsoring a dedicated conservation team of eight ecologists and wildlife specialists.
After five years of planning, Emirates opened the 1,250 hectare Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa in October 2009 – one of Australia's first luxury conservation resorts. Nestled in the Wolgan Valley beneath spectacular sandstone escarpments, this environmentally sensitive resort is in keeping with the unique wilderness of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage area in New South Wales – about 2.5 hours drive from Sydney. Bordering the Wollemi and Gardens of Stone National Parks, guests enjoy a true wilderness experience during their stay – while still enjoying the finest luxury hospitality.
The resort buildings themselves take up less than 2% of the conservation reserve, and have been designed with green buildings principles in mind – they boast the latest designs to minimise energy and water consumption, such as heat pumps, solar panels and passive ventilation systems. To show this commitment, Emirates was proud to announce that, on opening, the Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa became the first carboNZero©™ certified hotel in the world, and the first carbon neutral resort in the world to be certified through an internationally accredited greenhouse gas programme.
The property is located a short distance from a secret canyon in the Wollemi National Park, in which the Wollemi Pine (Wollemia nobilis) was discovered by an intrepid naturalist in 1994. The Wollemi Pine belongs to a 200 million year old plant family, the Araucariaceae, and its discovery in modern times has become one of the most exciting botanical finds of the century. The significance of its discovery has been compared to the equivalent of finding a live dinosaur in the present time. A number of Wollemi Pine specimens have been planted in an appropriate habitat on site, and its distinctive leaves are the basis for the resort's emblem.
Emirates invested over 125 million USD into this project to ensure the conservation of the unique biodiversity of this region. The property was previously used for cattle grazing and suffered numerous environmental stresses from streambank erosion and vegetation clearance to infestation with feral animals and weeds. Cattle have now been removed from the site and an extensive revegetation programme has been undertaken to stabilise eroding waterways and re-establish vegetation and wildlife corridors.
The whole property is now being used as a private reserve for the conservation of the region's endangered species and the reintroduction of native flora and fauna. Emirates has planted over 125,000 native trees and shrubs across the site and is actively removing feral animals and introduced plant species.
Many small native animal species in the greater Blue Mountains area have been driven to extinction, falling victim to introduced predators such as feral cats, foxes and wild dogs. Emirates has been conducting research into predator control and habitat protection of these species in conjunction with local conservation groups and academic institutions – trialling the use of 'feral-proof' fencing and targeted pest eradication programmes.
Recent sightings of endangered species at Wolgan Valley have included Red-headed Flying Foxes feeding on flowering eucalyptus trees and large numbers of Bronze-winged and Wonga Pigeons. There have also been sightings of Regent Honeyeaters and Spotted-tailed Quolls in the tree line along Carne Creek at night. Quolls (pictured) are medium sized carnivorous marsupials that are at risk from foxes and feral cats and uncontrolled baiting and trapping. This year has seen the Red-rumped Parrot increase in numbers along with the Eastern Rosella and other parrots. With more medium sized parrots available, the Peregrine Falcon will have more food for its young.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disorder that affects behavior. It can cause hyperactive and impulsive behavior, and/or make it difficult to pay attention. These behavioral problems continue over a long period of time. ADHD affects children, adolescents, and adults.
There are three types of ADHD:
- Inattentive (classic "ADD")
- Hyperactive-impulsive
- Combined—the most common type
The cause of ADHD is unknown. It most likely is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. There also appears to be a genetic factor since ADHD can run in families.
Risk Factors
This condition is more common in first-born males.
Factors that increase your chance of developing ADHD include:
- Premature birth
- Having a parent or sibling (especially an identical twin) with ADHD
- Having a mother who smoked cigarettes and/or drank alcohol, had a urinary tract infection, or had preterm labor during pregnancy
- Having a parent with certain conditions such as alcoholism and conversion disorder
Other possible risk factors include:
- Head injury at a young age—less than two years old
- Being born with a serious heart condition
- Epilepsy —especially when diagnosed under age 2 years
- Having Turner syndrome
- Being exposed to certain pesticides
- Spending over two hours a day watching TV or playing video games when young
All children display some of the symptoms of ADHD. Children with ADHD have symptoms that are more severe and consistent. They often have difficulty in school and with their family and peers.
ADHD can last into adulthood. It can cause problems with relationships, job performance, and job retention. Symptoms can vary according to the type of ADHD:
Inattentive (classic "ADD")
- Easily distracted by sights and sounds
- Doesn't pay attention to detail
- Doesn't seem to listen when spoken to
- Makes careless mistakes
- Doesn't follow through on instructions or tasks
- Avoids or dislikes activities that require longer periods of mental effort
- Loses or forgets items necessary for tasks
- Is forgetful in day-to-day activities
- Is restless, fidgets, and squirms
- Runs and climbs; not able to stay seated
- Blurts out answers before hearing the entire question
- Has difficulty playing quietly
- Talks excessively
- Interrupts others
- Has difficulty waiting in line or waiting for a turn
- Combined ADHD—Combination of the symptoms above.
People with ADHD may also have:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Seizures
- Conduct disorder —difficulty following social rules
- Oppositional defiant disorder —negative, angry, and defiant behaviors
- Learning and language disorders
- Physical conditions such as sleep apnea
- Substance abuse
- Trouble sleeping
- Cigarette use
There is no standard test to diagnose ADHD. It is done by a trained mental health professional. The diagnosis will also be based on feedback from family and teachers.
During diagnosis, the following information may be gathered from parents, caregivers, teachers, or other school professionals:
- Assessment of symptoms of ADHD in different settings—home and school
- Age at which symptoms started
- How much the behavior affects the child's ability to function
The goal is to improve the child's ability to function. Doctors should work together with parents and school staff. Together, they can set realistic goals and evaluate the child's response.
Treatments include:
Children who do not sleep enough may suffer from worse behavioral problems. A key part of treatment is to ensure that children with ADHD get plenty of sleep.
Medications can help control behavior and increase attention span. Stimulants are the most common choice for ADHD. They increase activity in parts of the brain that appear to be less active in children with ADHD.
Talk to your doctor if you have any questions about ADHD medications. There are possible risks with these medications, including heart problems and psychiatric problems.
Other medications include:
- Selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors—to promote attention and decrease impulsiveness and hyperactivity
- Antidepressants
- Antipsychotics—to treat aggressive behavior
- Alpha-agonist hypotensive agents—to treat impulsivity
Behavior Therapy
Children who take medication and go to therapy do better than those who just use medication. Therapy sessions focus on practicing social and problem-solving skills. Counselors will also teach parents and teachers to help the child through positive reinforcement. This could involve changes in the classroom, as well as in parenting style. Often, daily report cards are exchanged between parents and teachers.
Other tools, like the Disc'O'Sit cushion, may be helpful in improving children's attention in class. The Disc'O'Sit is a dome-shaped cushion filled with air that the child balances on.
ADHD coaching can also be helpful. These coaches work with individuals to help them organize and create strategies so that they can be more efficient and successful.

Halos send their ace to secure split with Astros
Right-handers step into spotlight, with Weaver opposing McHugh
Fresh off a stretch of playing the A's seven times in 10 games, the Angels started September with a reprieve of sorts -- two games against the Astros. Given the disparity between the teams, it represented a chance for Los Angeles to catch its breath a bit and, maybe, pad its lead in the American League West.
But the opener of the series didn't go as the Angels expected, as they lost, 8-3, on Tuesday night, snapping their six-game win streak. And so they call on their ace, Jered Weaver, to oppose fellow righty Collin McHugh at Minute Maid Park on Wednesday.
A win would mean a split for the Angels, whose division lead over the A's is 4 1/2 games, to start a 10-game road trip. They'll be off to Minnesota for a four-game weekend series after playing the Astros, followed by a makeup game in Cleveland before returning to the Lone Star State for three with the Rangers next week.
Weaver is tasked with picking up the first win of the journey. He will be looking to build on one of his best starts of the season, on Friday, when he threw seven shutout innings against the A's. He scattered three hits and three walks while striking out three, five days after allowing Oakland three runs in 6 2/3 innings.
"Seven innings was big for us tonight, and he pitched his heart out," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said on Friday. "When you face a team consecutively in five days, there's no doubt that there's a little chess match that goes on, some adjustments to your game plan. I thought Weave had much better stuff tonight than he did in Oakland, and I thought he really took advantage of it."
Weaver has already faced Houston twice this season. In 14 2/3 innings, he has struck out 11 and walked one while allowing six runs.
One of those games -- a complete-game win on May 21 -- was against McHugh. McHugh pitched well -- holding Los Angeles to two runs in seven innings -- just as he has done most of the season.
McHugh, who is still a rookie following cups of coffee in 2012 and 2013, has more or less penciled himself into the Astros' 2015 rotation with a 2.99 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in 21 starts this season. He has also struck out more than a batter per inning.
August treated McHugh especially well. He posted the best ERA (1.91), WHIP (1.14) and strikeout-to-walk rate (5.0) of any of his four full months in the Majors this season. Five of his six outings were quality, including the previous one, a seven-inning, two-run effort against the Rangers.
Angels: September callups make for a full 'pen
Of the 11 players the Angels called up on Tuesday, four -- Cam Bedrosian, Wade LeBlanc, Vinnie Pestano and Cory Rasmus -- are pitchers. That means Los Angeles is playing with a 12-man bullpen.
"Given where we are, given our roster, [analyzing] where our rotation is, there's no doubt we needed to add some arms," Scioscia said. "And we're going to continue adding some arms here in probably another week or 10 days."
The extra pitchers came in handy pretty quickly. C.J. Wilson lasted just 3 1/3 innings on Tuesday, so the Angels had to call on their relievers for 4 2/3 innings. Bedrosian, Pestano and LeBlanc were among those who saw action.
Astros: Altuve on a tear, again
When Jose Altuve deposited a 2-0 changeup into the left-field seats on Tuesday, he became the first Astros player to hit in six straight at-bats since Brandon Barnes did it in July 2013. Altuve went 4-for-5 on Sunday, with hits in his final four at-bats, before his single and homer extended the streak.
It's Altuve's latest feat as he strives for what would be the Astros' first batting title. If he does, he would join Joe Mauer (2006) and Alex Rodriguez (1996) as the only AL players 24 or younger to win a batting title in the last 20 seasons.
Tuesday's 4-for-5 effort raised his average to a Major League-best .340, though his streak ended when he grounded out in the fourth. He ended his night with two more hits.
With 193 hits, Altuve is well on his way to becoming the second Astro to reach 200 in a season, following Craig Biggio, who had a club-record 210 in 1998, when he hit .325.
Worth noting
• Los Angeles left-hander Joe Thatcher is expected back in seven to 10 days, according to Scioscia. Thatcher, nursing a sprained left ankle, threw a bullpen session on Tuesday.
• Astros rookie outfielder George Springer has been out since mid-July with a strained left quad, but general manager Jeff Luhnow on Tuesday left the door open for him playing again this season. The club hasn't made public a timetable for Springer's return.
