R.O.C.K.S. (youth curling)
The Utica Curling Club's Youth Programs provide curling instruction for youth from age 5 up to high school seniors. The Youth Program is divided into two separate age-group sessions that meet most Sunday afternoons from late October through late March.Our Little Rocker Program offers curling for youngsters who are more comfortable with our lighter-weight, half-size "middle rocks", and is designed for youth of ages 5-8 years old.
Our Junior Program is primarily designed for youth in middle school and high school. We break this group onto two sheets pending the number of children and their curling experience. During the ice time, we use the beginning to teach a skill related to curling and then use the second half to play a short game to use those skill taught. This is a great learning experience and we hope as your child grows, they continue to curl throughout their life.

- The ribosome assembly factor Nep1 responsible for Bowen–Conradi syndrome is a pseudouridine-N1-specific methyltransferase (2010)
- Nep1 (Emg1) is a highly conserved nucleolar protein with an essential function in ribosome biogenesis. A mutation in the human Nep1 homolog causes Bowen–Conradi syndrome—a severe developmental disorder. Structures of Nep1 revealed a dimer with a fold similar to the SPOUT-class of RNA-methyltransferases suggesting that Nep1 acts as a methyltransferase in ribosome biogenesis. The target for this putative methyltransferase activity has not been identified yet. We characterized the RNA-binding specificity of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii Nep1 by fluorescence- and NMR-spectroscopy as well as by yeast three-hybrid screening. Nep1 binds with high affinity to short RNA oligonucleotides corresponding to nt 910–921 of M. jannaschii 16S rRNA through a highly conserved basic surface cleft along the dimer interface. Nep1 only methylates RNAs containing a pseudouridine at a position corresponding to a previously identified hypermodified N1-methyl-N3-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl) pseudouridine (m1acp3-Psi) in eukaryotic 18S rRNAs. Analysis of the methylated nucleoside by MALDI-mass spectrometry, HPLC and NMR shows that the methyl group is transferred to the N1 of the pseudouridine. Thus, Nep1 is the first identified example of an N1-specific pseudouridine methyltransferase. This enzymatic activity is also conserved in human Nep1 suggesting that Nep1 is the methyltransferase in the biosynthesis of m1acp3-Psi in eukaryotic 18S rRNAs.
- The Bowen–Conradi syndrome protein Nep1 (Emg1) has a dual role in eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis, as an essential assembly factor and in the methylation of Psi1191 in yeast 18S rRNA (2010)
- The Nep1 (Emg1) SPOUT-class methyltransferase is an essential ribosome assembly factor and the human Bowen–Conradi syndrome (BCS) is caused by a specific Nep1D86G mutation. We recently showed in vitro that Methanocaldococcus jannaschii Nep1 is a sequence-specific pseudouridine-N1-methyltransferase. Here, we show that in yeast the in vivo target site for Nep1-catalyzed methylation is located within loop 35 of the 18S rRNA that contains the unique hypermodification of U1191 to 1-methyl-3-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)-pseudouri-dine (m1acp3Psi). Specific 14C-methionine labelling of 18S rRNA in yeast mutants showed that Nep1 is not required for acp-modification but suggested a function in Psi1191 methylation. ESI MS analysis of acp-modified Psi-nucleosides in a DeltaNep1-mutant showed that Nep1 catalyzes the Psi1191 methylation in vivo. Remarkably, the restored growth of a nep1-1ts mutant upon addition of S-adenosylmethionine was even observed after preventing U1191 methylation in a deltasnr35 mutant. This strongly suggests a dual Nep1 function, as Psi1191-methyltransferase and ribosome assembly factor. Interestingly, the Nep1 methyltransferase activity is not affected upon introduction of the BCS mutation. Instead, the mutated protein shows enhanced dimerization propensity and increased affinity for its RNA-target in vitro. Furthermore, the BCS mutation prevents nucleolar accumulation of Nep1, which could be the reason for reduced growth in yeast and the Bowen-Conradi syndrome.
- Dependence of aptamer activity on opposed terminal extensions: improvement of light-regulation efficiency (2009)
- Aptamers that can be regulated with light allow precise control of protein activity in space and time and hence of biological function in general. In a previous study, we showed that the activity of the thrombin-binding aptamer HD1 can be turned off by irradiation using a light activatable "caged" intramolecular antisense-domain. However, the activity of the presented aptamer in its ON state was only mediocre. Here we studied the nature of this loss in activity in detail and found that switching from 5'- to 3'-extensions affords aptamers that are even more potent than the unmodified HD1. In particular we arrived at derivatives that are now more active than the aptamer NU172 that is currently in phase 2 clinical trials as an anticoagulant. As a result, we present light-regulatable aptamers with a superior activity in their ON state and an almost digital ON/OFF behavior upon irradiation.

Wow, kudos again to the nouveau devs!
I've gotta say, the first time I heard about nouveau many many years ago when it was still in its infancy I thought "cool project, but the devs will probably get tired fast and it will be yet another possibly cool thing that never was". How glad I am to be proven wrong again and again, you rock!
Can not you just get permission from Nvidia for redistribution of firmware?
I mean, its useless for anyone BUT for Nvidia GPU owners.
It still will not be FOSS, but nobody would have to digg into proprietary driver in order to get it working.
Congrats to the noveau-team. Indeed when buying hardware, one should be able to program it, and not be locked into OS choice. Incredible lame of NVIDIA not to release specs. Peace Be With You.

Astros look for continued success from Oberholtzer
Rookie takes mound opposite established Weaver, trying to even set
Neither the Astros nor the Angels will be playing in October, but Saturday's matchup still presents some storylines.
The Astros will want to see if rookie Brett Oberholtzer can continue to put up impressive numbers, while the Angels want to make sure Jered Weaver is 100 percent. And while the Angels' win streak ended at three in Friday's opener, the Astros are going for their fifth straight victory.
Oberholtzer is 4-2 with a 1.91 ERA in seven starts since joining the rotation and has allowed one run across 15 innings in his past two starts.
"I just want to see the consistency stay the same," pitching coach Doug Brocail said. "The kid is a bulldog on the mound and has been pitching well. I have no complaints. The kids are pitching phenomenal. It's nice to see the youth is paying off."
Weaver gave up three runs in six innings during his Monday start in Minnesota, but left the game after only 89 pitches with minor soreness in his right forearm. While he is expected to be fine, the Angels' pitching staff is finally coming around of late after being hampered by injuries early in the season.
"It just started tightening up in the third or fourth," Weaver said. "I got through the sixth inning and [Angels manger Mike] Scioscia didn't want to push it any more, which is understandable. It's nothing concerning. Just maybe [with] the hot, humid air, and losing a lot of fluids and stuff, it started tightening up there a little bit, but it's not a concern."
Angels: Kendrick returns in opener
Angels second baseman Howie Kendrick missed 33 games with a hyperextended left knee, but returned to the lineup Friday, recording the game's first hit and scoring a run in a 2-for-5 night.
With each of the Angels' top three Minor League affiliates in the playoffs, there was no real chance to send Kendrick on a rehab assignment, so the Angels are keeping a close eye on him in his return.
"Sometimes guys are out for a while, they come back and look like they never missed a beat," Scioscia said. "Sometimes guys need time. I'm sure there are going to be some rough patches that I'll have to smooth out, but he's ready to go. He feels good."
Astros: Castro hopes to DH this weekend
Astros catcher Jason Castro is not ready to catch, but will be available to pinch-hit and and possibly DH during the weekend series.
Castro had a cyst on his knee drained last week in Oakland and is hoping to get back behind the plate before the season ends, but is not going to rush. He played twice since having the cyst trained and went a combined 0-for-9 with four strikeouts before deciding he needed more rest.
"It's definitely feeling better and the rest was definitely what I needed," Castro said. "I just think we didn't give it enough time after having it drained. That's what we backed off a little bit and wanted to give it four or five days or so to kind of get back to normal after having that done."
Worth noting
• Oberholtzer beat the Angels on Aug. 18, when he allowed three runs in six innings in Anaheim.

Open access publishing is not without costs. BioMed Central defrays these costs through article-processing charges because it does not have subscription charges for its research content. The company instead believes that immediate, worldwide, barrier-free, open access to the full text of research articles is in the best interests of the scientific community.

It sports a 6-1/2" woofer for deep, punchy bass and two 3/4" tweeters for crisp highs. This dual-tweeter design allows the '650-SM to play both channels of a stereo signal with precision and clarity. You can also use two of these speakers for a conventional stereo setup in a larger area. Plus, the UV-resistant enclosure ensures you'll enjoy smooth sound at cookouts and pool parties for years to come. Got wire? Most speakers don't include any.

AWESOME SPEAKERS Written By Stephen D, Harrisburg PA on Wednesday, July 23, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers "rock" I installed these under our deck where we have a finished patio with Jacuzzi. We have a small 20' strip of flowers there with mulch. After running my speaker wire (14gauge) to the speakers I pointed them into the center of the patio...one on the far left, one on the far right. These sound awesome with wonderful bass response even with the Jacuzzi running. Pros: Cant go wrong with Klipsch. Buy them. They look real, not too heavy, and look great in any landscaped area. The speakers have just enough weight to keep them to the ground. Klipsch provides a landscape hold down steel peg with each speaker for added security to the ground. Cons: I was timid in wanting to spend $300 per speaker... would have been nicer to purchase as a set for $300....but they are worth the money!!
Awesome sound Written By Matt G, Portland on Wednesday, June 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speaker sound awesome. The bass response is EXCELLENT for an outdoor speaker. They play loud and clean. So well in fact that I've already had a few conversations with the neighbors since I installed them. I only gave 4 stars instead of 5 since one of my speakers won't play in stereo. The others all work fine. I'll update my review after talking to Crutchfield support Pros: Loud, clear, and great bass. Cons: See above
Great treble and midrange outdoor speaker Written By Vsdi, New York, NY on Monday, April 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased this speaker to replace a blown KLH rock speaker. Tried using one speaker since it can be hooked up to reproduce both channels. The treble and midrange are incredibly clear but I ended up ordering a second speaker to hear the separation of the two channels. Pros: Great crystal clear highs and midrange Cons: Bass is ok but not as good as the KLH that these replaced. Price is high considering they are made in China.
Awesome sound Written By Paulie P., Brewster NY on Monday, December 06, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product you wont dissappointed with these speakers. Blends in with landscape nicely. Lifetime warranty need I say more.
Klipsch AWR-650-SM Written By Mike, Chicago, IL on Friday, May 28, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have had these for two seasons now and they are wonderful. I was a little skeptical because of the price, but with the warranty and quality, they are perfect. The sound is very deep and rich. the sandstone color looks somewhat fake, but I have them on both sides of my patio (about 38ft apart) pointing to the center of my patio (think of a triangle), and because of their location I do not see them very much. So the color does not bother me. The bass is surprisingly deep and that gives the sound a full feel. I recommend spending the extra $$$ for these.
Amazing Outdoor Sound...These Speakers ROCK Written By John, Brooklyn, NY on Saturday, May 31, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Not only do the Rock Speakers look great in my newly landscaped yard, but the sound is truly amazing. I now have Klipsch throughout my house. I sent my Bose back. I am glad that there is finally an outdoor rock speaker worthy of praise.

Plus, they give you flexibility. We include the must-see sites and experiences, and we also understand that people take interest in different activities and may want to craft a more personal vacation by hand-picking optional excursions that appeal to them.

Treasures of Rome by Night & Dinner An early evening tour will show you other aspects of Rome, perhaps not seen on the included sightseeing tour. Either before or after dinner you will have an orientation drive to probably include Castel Sant' Angelo, Palace of Justice, Mausoleum of Augustus, Aurelian walls, Villa Borghese, Via Veneto, Piazza Barberini and Via Nazionale.Dinner will be taken at one of the local restaurants and you can sample a delicious 3 course menu with dessert including local wine and mineral water plus coffee or tea. During the evening there will be music to add to the romantic Roman atmosphere.
Vatican Museum & Sistine Chapel On this fascinating excursion with a local guide you can stroll through the Vatican Museum and marvel at Michaelangelo's famous creation in the Sistine Chapel. The Vatican Museum houses over 2000 rooms and 9 miles of the most extensive collections of art in the world. The Museums are brilliantly decorated and brim over with treasures and history and the local guide will share with you the stories and secrets contained within the Museum's walls. In the Sistine Chapel you can marvel at Michaelangelo's masterpiece, which is perhaps the greatest example of art anywhere and certainly the largest contiguous body by one painter. There are also some lesser masterpieces in the Sistine Chapel which are also worth seeing.
Discover The Venetian Lagoon Discover the Venetian lagoon on an afternoon excursion lasting approximately 3 hours. After sailing past the island of St. Giorgio, the public gardens, Sant'Elena, the Lido and Murano the boat takes you to the famous island of Burano. This is the most picturesque of Venetian islands of the lagoon and the pretty fishing village has its streets and canals lined by pastel coloured houses. It is also famous for its lace-making industry. There will be time to look around Burano on your own before returning back to St. Mark's Square by boat.
Gondola Serenade One of the highlights of a trip to Europe and something not to be missed during your visit to Venice is a gondola serenade. The gondola ride either takes place in the morning or the afternoon and lasts approximately 30 minutes when during this time you can relax whilst cruising not only on the Grand Canal but also down many small canals to see Venice from the water. During the gondola ride a local musician will serenade you with the traditional romantic music of Italy.
Venetian Night Out & Dinner As the title suggests, this is a real Venetian night out. Embark on a motorboat for a cruise along the impressive Giudecca Canal with the tour director pointing out the most important palaces, all built by the Venetian gentry between the 12th and 13th centuries. Upon disembarkation an evening stroll though some of the romantic narrow streets of this fascinating city to eventually reach one of the specially chosen local restaurants for your Venetian dinner. After a welcoming aperitif of the house you can sit down and enjoy a typical dinner with a choice of starters and main course followed by a delicious dessert. Included also is red or white wine plus mineral water and tea or coffee. After dinner you will be given some free time in St. Mark's Square, said to have been called the "drawing room of Europe" by Napoleon and which is one of the few great urban spaces in Europe where human voices prevail over the sounds of motorized traffic. A motorboat will then take you part of the way back to your hotel.
Tyrolean Folklore Evening A highlight during your stay in the Tyrol is a typical Tyrolean evening at a family run venue. Enjoy an evening of folk dancing, shoeplatteln, Tyrolean folk songs and yodelling with traditional instruments and brass band music. One drink per person is included - either beer, wine or soft drink.
Dinner & Swiss Folklore Contrary to belief, not all Swiss can yodel or blow the alp horn, but those you will see are real experts. At the Stadtkeller Restaurant, located in the old town of Lucerne, they will entertain you with merry melodies on the accordion and traditional dances whilst you enjoy a delicious meal and sample the Swiss Cheese Fondue.
Engelberg Only Spend a few hours in this panoramic village very famous winter sport center of Central Switzerland at the foot of Mount Titlis. In Engelberg which is also a charming village you can take a walk or you can shop in the bazaars and enjoy traditional Swiss cuisine in a typical restaurant
Mount Titlis Drive to Alpine Engelberg - very famous sport center of Central Switzerland - to take the Titlis-Rotair, the world's first revolving cable car, up to 10,000 feet where eternal snow resists even the summer sun.

On top of Mount Titlis there is a Restaurant with a nice terrace and a solarium from which you can also enjoy an enchanting view.
Scenic Lake Cruise An hour's guided cruise on the most beautiful lake in Switzerland gives you an introduction to this lovely city from a completely different aspect. With its many bays, it offers superb panoramas of the surrounding landscape. The cruise is operated on a comfortable private covered boat and a commentary will be given by one of the crew staff who will explain the history of all the enchanting villages and you will learn some interesting stories of the Swiss History.
The Titlis Ice Flyer An extension to the Mount Titlis excursion, the Ice Flyer is a chair lift, specially equipped to protect from wind, snow and rain. The 2,460 foot journey lasts six minutes and you can enjoy an absolutely unique and unforgettable ride.
Cabaret Show A trip to Paris is not complete without a visit to one of the famous Parisian Cabaret to enjoy an enchanting night. Whilst you see a colourful costume and decor show of music and dances, you will be served a glass of champagne to fully enjoy your evening. This excursion is not operated as a private charter which means you may join others on the same tour which may require picking up and dropping off at several hotels.
Farewell Dinner & Orientation Tonight you will have the opportunity to taste some delicious specialities of the French cuisine. In a Parisian restaurant with a fascinating atmosphere you will enjoy a four-course dinner with an aperitif and wine. Some music will enliven the evening. An orientation drive of Paris will also be part of this special night

Hi guys! I wanted to let you know that I'll no longer be posting Modest medusa on Webcomics Nation. MM got it's start here in Jan 2011, and over the last year and a half the strip has moved onto Drunk Duck, Deviant Art and finally Modestmedusa.com. I appreciate both this site and the readers who read it here, but I decided back after the end of Season 1 that I'd stop psoting here once I got to strip 200. It's just much, much less work to focus on just ModestMedusa.com, and I hope those of you who still read the comic here will join me there.
Thank you all!

Have been taking this product for several years ... now I cannot find it anywhere ... on line or in the stores. When will this product be available? I am down to 12 tablets and need ASAP!!!
My period has been pretty easy going most of my life, though in the past few years (late 20-early 30s) I have had heavier flow, backpain, headaches, irritability, and extreme fatigue. My mom, an RN, has been telling me to take Lydia Pinkham for as long as I've been complaining. She finally just bought me a bottle and made me take it. It made it sooo much better! Every month it seemed like my period got a lil easier when I would take it. Then my mom told me I should take it every day and that when it would come on, it wouldn't give any trouble at all. When I finally listened and started taking it daily, I found that my period lasts shorter and is much easier than before. This is a true lifesaver. Make sure you take it daily!
My mother SWEARS by this product and used it for over 40 years! She recommended it to me and my sisters over 25 years ago. I was Amazed to see that it was still available! I have been taking it for a month now has I've noticed a significant reduction in my premenstrual symptoms!!!! I HIGHLY recommend this to ALL women!
After 7 years of "bad luck" I mean hot flashes, I have finally found a product that does deliver. I am thrilled. It took about 4 weeks of taking the product, but then the hot flashes just stopped! Thanks for a great product.
I have been taking this for quite a while now, at first it took about 3 weeks to really help with hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, but it is a real life saver for me.............

"Jesus, what a mess." The cop glanced around at the thugs sprawled on the ground. "What the hell's been going on here?" Then he looked up and apparently noticed the large bloodstain across John's shirt. "Ye gods, what the hell happened to you?!" He cautiously approached. "Yah, that can't be comfortable."

Marcus returned to his charges after a quick survey of the house. Security system and what few wards were intact to the best of his ability to check. No bugs either, which he found suprising. The windows were all appropriately closed. One of the upper guestrooms had another lost lamb which had been deposited there. The house was much as he remembered it: bland, generic, and easily replaced. He called in an order to two local delivery places, one for groceries and one for several pizzas.
He had taken the clippings he had recieved and made a copies from the back office scanner. He had put the one about Poe in a small envelope and folded it to a small pocket size. The other he had made three copies of, once source listings were deleted.
"I am sorry, I am being an ungracious host. Please feel free to refresh yourself. There is some food and drink in the Kitchen. More is on its way. If the doorbell rings, if you could make yourself scarce until the initial troubles are over, so I can answer it. You can make phone calls out, but I need to dial in an access code... so I can get charged for it. (Not true, but they don't know that..) Phone calls in are somewhat problamatic, but I can make arrangements. Oh, I am sorry. The first aid kit is in the downstairs bathroom. Now we have one more lost lamb upstairs. If we could keep this down to a dull roar, I think he would appreciate it. "
"When you are all ready, I can begin to field some questions you might have."
After some initial bits of prep.
"Lets get the initial ones out of the way. My name is Marcus. I work for an organization that is currently invested in the status quo, but is normally interested in the Advancement of Humanity and Society.
Each of you has been "tapped" in some way by one specific organization, though I am investigating the possibly that other organizations are tapped you. Being tapped by them, you have been modified by a variety of means to possess paranormal abilities. You may not remember being altered, they are good at memory modification. As for the "powers", if you don't have them now, you will manifest them soon enough. Yes the craziness you have been living does have a cause and you are not, specifically, insane.
One of the other organizations seeing that you were "in the open" arranged for you to be tested. Given their criteria, you all failed - no active combat power manifested. So you are no use to them at the moment. And rather than let you become a tool for another group, they will ensure that you are deleted.
Yes, that means what you think it means.
The group that tapped you, now realizing that you have been compromised, will either try to forcibly retreave you or remove you from the game, possibly deleting you.
You might notice the words secret and organization being bandied about. A lot. Yes there are a lot of "air quotes" secret "air quotes" organizations involved in all this. You can call them secret societies, cabals, or espionage cells. The differences are immaterial. These organizations function best if the general public is underaware of their existance. They are all about furthering their various agendas, some of which have spanned centuries, and utilizing any appropriate means to do so. They also have access to knowledge, techniques, and technology that are not normally available, and in some cases supposed not to exist. Yes, like magic for instance. However, Clarkes laws apply.
Now some of the specifics for each of you might be different. I am still researching, but this is what I have.
For the moment, we have to see what assets are in play in the search for you. That will determine next moves.
Now I have put myself on the line here for all of you. I have gone far, far beyond what I should of done. I just... I just did not want to see you all get killed for pointless reasons.

Taking the envelope, Poe turned it over slowly in his hands.
And just because you spouted some conspiracy theory crap we're supposed to believe you, right?
Not sure exactly what to do with it, he folded the envelope and tucked it down the front of his pants.
With the way I look, it'll be safest there...
He turned, took two steps towards a chair, and turned back to face Marcus.
If you really think that sitting in a room somewhere, after what just happened, is gonna make me feel safe...and you with all this secret society s**t...
" he growled, running his hands through his hair in frustration.
This is bad! And that chick said the suits were after me...d**n! I knew I shoulda caught the d**n bus...
Poe balled up his fists. He hated not knowing what was going on. This day was turning out to be a bad one, and the sun wasn't even up yet. He walked over to the sofa and hopped up onto it, perching on the arm.
So answer this, Mister Know-it-all...why were those suits after me? Am I some sorta "altered, memory-modified, paranormal" freak, or just your average garden variety type

"Yeah, sorry if..I'm not quite up to...explaining things. I think...what you see...is about what you get. Remind me to..tell you...later..." Gunshot wound having finally causing enough blood loss to force unconsciousness, John's eyes slide closed and he falls over onto his side.
(OOC: Moon wound probably give a better description of the results, but I believe unconsciousness is a normal effect of bullets to the chest. It also saves money on pixels to be displayed as John tries to explain the situation with the cops, since he'd be gasping for air almost continually.)

Anatiel rubbed her forehead. All of this was too confusing to her and she didn't know what question to ask first so she settled for one. As she walked into the kitchen for a glass of water Anat called over her shoulder. "Where do you keep the aspirin?"

The cop blinked as John collapsed. "Well, that simplifies things. I guess." He looked around, sighed, then crouched next to John, muttering to himself. "And, of course, this means I gotta take care of this guy, like I didn't have enough to do. This is gonna be a &^%$@ to clean up..."
(OOC: Chaos, John is unconscious, expect a pm from me.)

Michael's face flushed as Marcus' speech became more and more fantastical. He folded his hands forcibly, tightly gripping his fingers together. It was all he could do to keep from slamming his fists on the table. The priest listened as Poe spoke his anger. It was exactly the same way he felt: why should they listen to this paranoid conspiracy madness?
But then... It did add up, in its own strange way.
"They were after you," Fr. Michael said quietly. "I tried to distract the one - Eric. Then that other guy showed up." He shifted uncomfortably in his seat. "I can't say they were after you on some genetic modification conspiracy, but they were definitely dangerous."

Anat came back from the kitchen and took a sip from the glass of water. "I thought the guy was after
, Preacher. I thought for sure you were going to get pulverized by him too." She took another drink of water and watched the people distort through the bottom of the glass. Anatiel yawned and stretched scratching the back of her head; It was something she often did when she was tired. She turned to address the strange man. "Since you know so much about us would you happen to have dry clothing in our size?" She said half hoping, half mocking.
I wish I was at home sleeping right now.
Anat thought to herself as she rubbed her forehead again.

He held up a hand to forstall Poe's little range and stopped to answer the others first. "Just a moment".
"Medicine cabnet downstairs bathroom. And bring the first aid kit when you come back."
"And Father Micheal, they were after all of you. It just so happened you were all conveniently in the same vicinity. Then you were all in the bus terminal. That became a cosmic recipe for chaos.
So you were both right Miss Anat XXX. (Yes, he should not know your name, it has not been used while he was around.) And I was not planning on bringing anyone else here, but there is a variety of sweat clothes stashed in the upstairs linen closet. Something should fit.
As for you young man.... and the rest of you.
I don't care if you believe me or the truth. I am not selling anything. I do feel vaguely obligated to you all now. What I need you to do is stay together for a time, keep a low profile, and then you can make your next move. The more you know, the better your chances of surviving the next fifteen days or so.
And you young man are a (and done in a near perfect copy of Poe's voice and body language) "altered, memory-modified, paranormal" freak. Then in his own voice, "though I am sure you, you were your average garden variety type before, if that gives you any comfort. Though you can't remember it can you? I am fairly sure you have a lot of blank spots and scary memories you are currently suppressing. I will bet you don't know your real birth name. If you want to know it, I think I can find it for you. "
And do any of the rest of you have blank spots? Even so, I can help you deal with your current issues... most of them probably related to your "differences".
Oh, it is not just happening here. He held up a few pieces of paper in his hand. Others are in similar problems. I am sure people monitoring them are not helping them like I am helping you. He leaves the papers (PM me if you pick one up) So relax for a moment. He looked at his blackberry. "Food should" Ding of the door bell. "be here any moment now." Marcus walked out of the room and drew the decorative curtain obscuring the room from the foyer.

"Tell ya the truth, I don't believe much of this guy's crap. But, also, I ain't adverse to laying it low for a bit. The other guy, back at the station, stayed back talking bout how his was legal, and he got a good look at a couple of our faces. Also, they got surveillance tapes from the depot."
Jader stopped and looked down at the papers Marcus'd left on the table.
"Whether he's a total nut-job or not, if the pigs start looking for us, they'll do it with a good idea of what we look like. And I'm not sticking my head out any further than I gotta."
Jader grabbed one of the papers and jammed himself in a corner to read it.

Anatiel nodded at the man and lingered for a moment to catch the last bits of conversation. When the doorbell rang she made her way downstairs to the medicine cabinet choosing the bottle of ibuprofen over the aspirin. After taking two she grabbed the white box with the red cross off of the wall and carried it upstairs with her and held it out to Poe at arms reach while she finished off her glass of water. "Take it. I'm not going to stand here all day."

Muddled voices filled John's head as he faded in and out of consciousness, but nothing stood still long enough for him to catch it and store it away. All he caught were wisps and vapours.
Fire and brimstone, but my head is killing me!
He opened his eyes, finally back into the real world. Where was he? The last place he remembered was the station, and a cop, and then black. The sky was still mostly dark though it had a tinge of gray to it, so it couldn't be much after the gunfight at the stop.
He blinked, then looked down at his chest. His shirt was still bloody and showed the entry hole from where he was shot, but once lifted his suspicions were confirmed: healthy, pink flesh, if still a little tender. Someone had done something beyond what he knew medical science could do. The best hospital in the world could merely clean the wound and sew it back together to help the body fix it on its own. Nothing he knew would allow for this much healing this fast.
"Thank you Lord." he muttered under his breath, genuine thanks in his heart. However it had happened, he was healed. He checked the holster hidden under his shirt to make sure his gun was still there and still loaded, then checked his wallet, the chain connecting it and his belt loop clinking links together. Everything seemed to be in place, including the $20 in fives he kept in his left pocket in case he was pickpocketed. The sound and feel of paper crinkling in his pocket made him pause and read it.
So. He had been saved from a very traumatic ordeal with police and hospitals and secretive organizations by some random person who happened to take care of his loose ends for him. How fortunate. Perhaps the old man from the station had taken him up on his challenge to provide a way out that didn't involve fleeing the scene of a crime. Or perhaps the first officer on the scene had been his mysterious benefactor. There was too much guesswork to be sure. The only thing to be certain of was that he was alive, not sucking blood through his lungs, and out of immediate danger, though the police would probably be after him shortly thanks to his missed shots and blood left on the scene, no matter how thorough his benefactor might be. Well, nothing else to do but to go on with his life and hope for the best.
Checklist of needs: New clothes. Hotel room. Food. Find my business partner, who I was supposed to meet up with at the bus station and who didn't even give me a name. Never been known for my exceptional foresight. And last but not least, find answers.
"Not all in that order though." he said with a chuckle, setting out at a leisurely pace to find the nearest place where he could get non-battle-scarred clothing.
And some Aspirin.
By the power of Bayes!

James woke up to a throbbing head and found himself in a strange room, that looked nothing like the apartment he had rented not a week ago. He
been drinking, but the bump on the back of his head told him the rum and coke were not to blame.
James rolled from the bed, grabbed at the post trying to get his bearings, stumbled to the door, and made his way downstairs The house began to shake with each step down the stairs until he came to a room filled with strangers.

Marcus waundered in with six boxes of pizza. "Nice timing on your reaquaintance with conciousness. Come in. Sit down. I will get around to explaining. I was just assigned so I did not yet have enough time to determine your favorite flavors of pizza. So take some of the selection. Combo, cheese, all meat, all vegi, mushroom sausage, and hawaiian. Sodas and water are in the refrigerator. There may be beer around, but it won't be cold.
As for you. You were hit from behind by an agent of a yet to be determined organization. As they were dragging you off to an unmarked black van, some of my compatriots decided it be best that did not happen. Actually they were ordered not to let you be taken in. In the scuffle: we rescued you, they got away, nobody was seriously injured, all evidence was cleaned up, and you were brought here so they would not try to kidnap you out of your home. I don't know why you are more important than anyone here, but here we are. So come and eat first. I will answer everyone's "burning questions" after we do such.

James lifted one of the pizza box lids and grabbed a slice
"Agents? Why the hell would anyone want to grab me off the street? I haven't done anything, I just moved here a week ago."
James folded the slice and scarfed it down, then he went for a second slice, darting his hand in front of another of the "house guests" to grab it before any of them.
"I don't know about any of you, but I don't see why I gotta stay and listen to this, thanks for the pizza and all, it has been surreal."

Boy Scout Advancement
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 23-26)
"The Boy Scout advancement program is subtle. It places a series of challenges in front of a Scout in a manner that is fun and educational. As Scouts meet these challenges, they achieve the aims of Boy Scouting."
"The Scout advances and grows in the Boy Scout phase of the program in the same way a plant grows by receiving nourishment in the right environment. The job with adults concerned with advancement is to provide the right environment."
"One of the greatest needs of young men is confidence. There are three kinds of confidence that young men need: in themselves, in peers, and in leaders."
"Educators and counselors agree that the best way to build confidence is through measurement. Self-confidence is developed by measuring up to a challenge or a standard. Peer confidence develops when the same measuring system is used for everyone -- when all must meet the same challenge to receive equal recognition. Confidence in leaders comes about when there is consistency in measuring -- when leaders use a single standard of fairness."
"No council, district, unit, or individual has the authority to add to or subtract from any advancement requirement. A Boy Scout badge recognizes what a young man is able to do; it is not a reward for what he has done."
"Standards for joining a Boy Scout troop and for advancement are listed in the latest printing of the Boy Scout Handbook and in the current Boy Scout Requirements book."
"Advancement accommodates the three aims of Scouting: citizenship, growth in moral strength and character, and mental and physical development."
"The advancement program is designed to provide the Boy Scout with a chance to achieve the aims of Scouting. As a Scout advances he is measured and grows in confidence and self-reliance."
"When a badge and certificate are awarded to a Boy Scout to recognize that he has achieved a rank, they represent that a young man has:
- Been an active participant in his troop and patrol.
- Demonstrated living the Scout Oath (Promise) and Law in his daily life.
- Met the other requirements and/or earned the merit badges for the rank.
- Participated in a Scoutmaster conference.
- Satisfactorily appeared before a board of review.
"In the advanced ranks (Star, Life, and Eagle), the badge represents that the young man has also:"
- Served in a position of responsibility in the troop.
- Performed service to others.
A Scout will be considered "active" in his unit if he is:
Four Steps of Advancement
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 24)
"A Boy Scout advances from Tenderfoot to Eagle by doing things with his patrol and his troop, with his leaders, and on his own. It's easy for him to advance, if the following four opportunities are provided for him."
1. The Boy Scout learns. "A Scout learns by doing. As he learns, he grows in ability to do his part as a member of the patrol and the troop. As he develops knowledge and skill, he is asked to teach others; and in this way he begins to develop leadership."
2. The Boy Scout is tested. "A Scout may be tested on rank requirements by his patrol leader, Scoutmaster, assistant Scoutmaster, a troop committee member, or a member of his troop. The Scoutmaster maintains a list of those qualified to give tests and pass candidates. The Scout's merit badge counselor teaches and tests on the requirements for merit badges."
3. The Boy Scout is reviewed. "After a Scout has completed all requirements for a rank, he has a board of review. For Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class, Star, Life, and Eagle Palms, the review is conducted by members of the troop committee. The Eagle Scout board of review is conducted in accordance with local council procedures."
4. The Boy Scout is recognized. "When the board of review has certified a boy's advancement, he deserves to receive recognition as soon as possible. This should be done at a ceremony at the next troop meeting. The certificate for his new rank may be presented later at a formal court of honor.
Age Requirements
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 24)
"Boy Scout awards are for young men not yet 18 years old. Merit badges, badges of rank, and Eagle palms are for registered Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts, or qualified Venturers. Any registered Boy Scout or Varsity Scout may earn these awards until his 18th birthday. Any Venturer who achieves the First Class rank as a Boy Scout or Varsity Scout in a troop or team may continue working for the Star, Life, and Eagle Scout ranks and Eagle Palms while registered as an Venturer up to his 18th birthday."
"Youth members with special needs may work towards rank advancement after they are 18. (See section titled Advancement for Youth Members with Special Needs page 39.)"
Time Extensions

— Advancement Policies #33088, p. 25 |
Troop Advancement Goals
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 25)
"The Scoutmaster must be in charge of advancement in the troop. It is necessary that the Scoutmaster understand the purpose of the advancement program and the importance it has in the development of the Scouts in the troop. The troop's program must provide advancement opportunities. By participating in the troop program, the Scout will meet requirements for rank advancement."
"The troop's unit commissioner and the district advancement committee can play an important part in explaining advancement and helping the Scoutmaster utilize the advancement program in the troop program, making it exciting to the Scouts in the troop."
"It is important that the troop committee and the Scoutmaster set an advancement goal for the year. A basic goal should be for each Scout to advance a rank during the year. New Scouts should earn their First Class rank during their first year in the troop. By doing so, these new Scouts become net contributors to the troop and are able to care for themselves and others. When reviewed monthly by the troop committee, Scouts will recognize the importance of Scout advancement. Troops should conduct boards of review for Scouts who are not advancing. A minimum of four formal courts of honor a year (one every three months) should be held to formally recognize the Scouts in the troop."
"Presentation of merit badges and rank badges should not await these courts of honor; awards and badges should be presented at the next meeting after they have been earned. Scouts are recognized again at a formal court of honor."
Scoutmaster Conferences
| |||
— Advancement Policies #33088, p. 25 |
Record Keeping
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 26)
"Each troop is responsible for keeping its own records and reporting advancement to the local council service center. This is done on an Advancement Report form. One copy is kept by the troop and two are sent to the council with an order for badges and awards. It is best that this form be submitted at least monthly so that troop records remain current and Scouts are able to receive their awards quickly after earning them. Awards cannot be purchased or awarded until the Advancement Report has been filed with the council office. A Troop/Team Record Book, maintained by the troop scribe, is available."
"At the discretion of the local council, computer-generated advancement reports may be used. If used, two copies of the computer-generated report must be submitted to the council service center. You can also use the advancement program on unit software authorized by your council for entering and submitting this report."
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 26)
"A unit of training, Boy Scout Advancement, is available for instruction in how to carry out the advancement program."
Buddy System
(Quoted from: Advancement Policies #33088, pages 26)
"A Scout must have a buddy with him at each meeting with a merit badge counselor. A Scout's buddy could be another Scout, or be a parent or guardian, brother or sister, relative or friend. From his Scoutmaster, the Scout obtains a signed merit badge application and the name of the appropriate merit badge counselor. The Scout sets up his first appointment with the counselor. The counselor should explain the requirements to the Scout. The Scout and his buddy then meet as appropriate with the counselor until the Scout completes the badges requirements."

The Bignoniaceae comprise one of the significant specialist collections at MO. This Bignoniaceae Project presents some taxonomic information for this family, that is linked to the other data in TROPICOS. This information is mainly for the Neotropical Bignoniaceae.
Alwyn H. Gentry (1945-1993) studied the Bignoniaceae, and in particular the Neotropical species, extensively in the field and the MO herbarium for several decades. He compiled the resources to present a monograph of the Neotropical species, and published part of this work before his untimely death. After his death some of his works-in-progress were finished by collaborators, and his data were organized and edited. These data are available at http://www.mobot.org/mobot/research/gentry/welcome.shtml.
Lúcia G. Lohmann subsequently studied the systematics and taxonomy of the Neotropical tribe Bignonieae, which includes most of the tropical liana species. She presented the first detailed molecular and morphological study of this group, which supported extensive changes in generic circumscriptions. This project provides an interactive guide to this new classification.
Note: For each scientific name listed on these Project pages, clicking on the name will lead to the Bignoniaceae Project data page; to then see the standard TROPICOS Name page data directly from the project page, go to the upper right of the screen to the menu "Choose Project", and click on "TROPICOS".
This web site is under ongoing construction.

I do not question Chan's TES, but his PCS, especially Performance score. He had a fall, Tomas and Jeremy skated clean and both had gorgeous performances
Naah, that suggests they don't mind if Chan doesn't get gold at Sochi. Which they want. Maybe they're satisfied with V/M's dance gold at home and want the Russians to have the same experience in Sochi with B/S, I/K, K/A or the eventual number one and/or best Russian team at the time? Or maybe it's the ladies they want to assure gold - do they even have a gold medal (OGM) winning ladies skater? Doing that at home would be special indeed.
I know you weren't speaking to me, and I am no expert. I think I am just of the school that, quads are awesome, but triple axels are quite the glorious jump,too- and I think that, for me, Chan's lack of consistency in them makes his programs lack seamlessness, and make it hard for me to justify his scores frequently.
There is something we are missing here, the judges seem to be over the top with his scores, but they are very consistent in thgeir lovefest. I have to figure out what is exactly they are seeing and we don't?
I need to get to the bottom of this so I feel less embarrassed.
Chan's combo and 3rd jump were wonderful, but the fall on the 3A???
This is where I have a big problem with taking off only -1.00 for a fall. The fall deduction should be much more severe and particularly in the short program. And no way is Chan's PCS that much better than someone like an Abbott. Overscored, as usual. Chan will win this even if he falls 5 times in the free.
I have no idea if there's a worldwide pro-Chan conspiracy in judging, but I think I'm definitely seeing a herd mentality on the PCS side. Doesn't mean the herd (lemmings?) always get it right.
well - it´s not only the components this time.
he got way the highest TES and at the GOE is mostly no cheating possible. I guess the combo got some big +
looking forward seeing the details - and some vids anyone?
hate that every feed is blocked for me
But then again a fall would kill you under 6.0. I think it's ridiculous how much credit skaters still get for jumps with falls. Yes the axel was rotated. But I for one don't care how many rotations you manage in the air when you don't manage to stay on your feet. But hey. It's just my opinion. Chan had a good program; I don't agree with the score but that program was definitely top 3 material.
