Cyber-Threats Pose Challenges for NATO Summit in Chicago
Security experts expect WiFi freeloaders, man-in-the-middle attacks and targeted attacks against those working at the Chicago site of the upcoming NATO Summit.
Occupy Wall Street is expected to protest alongside the anti-globalization movement. Traffic will induce migraines. Some schools have rescheduled their proms. But an onslaught of cyber-attacks and WiFi freeloading will likely be the nastiest cherry on the NATO Summit pie, security experts say. This, the first-ever North Atlantic Treaty Organization Summit to be held in the United States, outside of Washington D.C., will take place on May 20 and 21 in Chicago.- Avoid using WiFi or sharing your location via Foursquare or other check-in services near the event. Cyber-criminals can use location data for man-in-the-middle attacks against neighborhood access points, Kellermann noted. These attacks involve active eavesdropping, in which the attacker makes independent connections with the victims and relays messages between them, leading victims to believe they're talking directly to each other over a private connection, when in fact the entire conversation is controlled by the attacker.
- Those in the summit area should update their antivirus software. The cyber-attacks will be against users, folks and entities that support the NATO event, Kellermann told the Sun-Times. There will be targeted attacks via email and social media against people working security, catering, hospitalitypotentially any participant in the event.
- Smartphone users should password-protect their WiFi hot spots so freeloaders can't jump on their signals, Karl Volkman, chief technology officer at SRV Network, in Chicago, told the Sun-Times.
- The FBI is warning travelers that staying in a hotel won't keep you safe. The Internet Crime Complaint Center (of which the FBI is a member) on May 8 issued a warning about attackers installing malware through pop-up windows while a traveler is linking to a hotel's Internet connection.
- Use extra caution before updating software products on a hotel Internet connection.
- Check the author or digital certificate of any prompted update to see if it corresponds to the software vendor.
- Perform software updates on laptops immediately before traveling.
- Download software updates directly from the software vendors Website if updates are necessary while abroad.

Tributes from friends and foes for last Soviet foreign minister Eduard Shevardnadze
TBILISI (AFP) - Former Georgian president Eduard Shevardnadze, who helped end the Cold War as the Soviet Union's last foreign minister, died on Monday aged 86, with tributes pouring in from friends and foes.
Shevardnadze was a controversial figure praised for his role in negotiating a bloodless end to the Soviet Union's confrontation with the West, but despised at home for his 10 years at the helm of post-Soviet Georgia that saw him ousted in a popular uprising.
"Mr Shevardnadze died today at noon," his aide Marina Davitashvili told AFP, weeping. "He was ill for a long time."
He won high praise on the world stage for his time as Mikhail Gorbachev's chief diplomat, when he oversaw arms-reduction treaties with the United States and brokered the deal that brought down the Berlin Wall.

Of course starting a new business requires a great deal more work than applying for a new job, and the effort usually involves much risk. But great rewards don't come without risk or great effort.
"There's never a guarantee for a new product or company," said Pat Mayfield, executive director of the Golden Gate Business Association in San Francisco. "However, many successful companies, such as General Electric, Motorola, Hewlett-Packard, and Paypal were started during down economies."
Experts reveal key business-starting tips
Several entrepreneurs who've seen success in creating a business shared these important tips for getting started:
1. Start your business while you are still working, if you can. "It takes 18-36 months on average to break even, let alone replace your corporate salary," said Melinda F. Emerson, the "SmallBizLady" and author of Become Your Own Boss in 12 Months.
2. Have passion for your company and your product. "It will help to get through the bad times and thrill you during the good times," said Mayfield.
3. Do your homework. "You might have a great idea for a business but success is going to be built on what other people think," said Gene Fairbrother, lead business advisor for National Association for the Self-Employed. "For any startup it is critical that they do some market research to determine if they can really generate customers who will generate revenues. A common cause for a business to fail is that the person starting the business is in the minority of people who thought it was a good idea."
4. Only listen to those with experience. "When you decide to become an entrepreneur, you're likely to run into some opposition," said Matt Toren, co-author of Small Business, Big Vision. "Unfortunately, the push-back often comes from those whose opinions matter most to you -- your family and friends. It will help if you remember to only listen to people who have done what you want to do."
5. Be passionate about customer service. "People buy from people they like, and in the early stages of a new business with a limited marketing budget, word of mouth is key," said Rene Shimada Siegel, president and founder of High Tech Connect. "Make every customer feel like they are your only customer. Under-promise and over-deliver. Listen carefully so you can take away their pain. Fix it quickly (for free) if it's not perfect. They will never forget how you made them feel."
6. Engage your circle of influence as much as possible. "Your friends, family, employees and acquaintances can be your best marketers and promoters," said Robb Fleischer, chief operating officer of AMSI Real Estate Services in San Francisco. "You'll want people close to you who specialize in the aspects of your business that you're not as passionate about, or requires a different skill-set, such as attorneys and accountants."
7. Don't try to raise capital; bootstrap instead. "It is nearly impossible for startups to obtain bank loans," said Scott Gerber, founder of the Young Entrepreneur Council. "Angels and venture capitalists -- and even friends and family in many cases -- want to see your business in action and succeeding before forking over a check. Bottom line: Launch a business you can start with the resources you have at your disposal, bootstrap and cut back on anything that isn't essential, and prove your business works before you seek any investment."
2012: Year of opportunity?
Most economists expect today's sluggish economy to continue through the next year, and starting a business in this climate will be risky. A recent Yahoo! Small Business survey found a third of small business owners have not been able to invest to grow their companies due to the recession, and many others shut down.
Nonetheless, some experts say the outlook is positive for new entrepreneurs.
"Bad [economic] times are the best times to start a business because they're the most likely times when people are open to change and new vendors," said Emerson.
"Any year is a good year to start a business," said Adam Toren, the other co-author of Small Business, Big Vision. "Outside forces, like economic conditions and changes in the marketplace, will obviously affect business owners, but they have infinitely more options to respond to those challenges than someone who's laid off from a job because of them."
Gerber, who stressed that entrepreneurs are problem solvers, was the most bullish.
"We are in the age of the entrepreneur," he said. "The new economy has forever changed the social norms of yesteryear, so next year is as good a time as any to join the entrepreneurial revolution."

Re: 2013 NFL Free Agent Tracker
Kinda interesting about Welker: He turned down a 2 year, $10 Million deal from the Patriots, that could have been as high as $16 Million. He also turned down $15 Million from a non-contending AFC team.
The breaking point came Tuesday in the mid-afternoon before the official start of free agency, when the Patriots and Welker's representatives halted contract talks. The team's offer, a two-year, $10 million pact with incentives that could have pushed it as high as $16 million but in the eyes of Welker would be extremely difficult to reach, wasn't accepted.
At that point, Welker and his representatives intensified their pursuit of other offers, and it helped that some groundwork had previously been laid with the Broncos. Likewise, the Patriots turned their attention to Amendola, who was their top choice if things didn't work out with Welker (and in the eyes of some on the other side of the negotiating table their top choice all along).
He had interest from another AFC team offering two years and closer to $15 million, which was the top contract proposal Welker received in a market that didn't unfold the way he and his representatives envisioned, but he didn't pursue it because the club isn't viewed as a contender.

Computer game fanatic Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is the bass player with Toronto band Sex Bob-omb. He shares his flat with his slightly-out-of-control gay friend Wallace Wells (Kieran Culkin), and courts a little controversy by dating 17-year-old schoolgirl Knives Chau (Ellen Wong).
However, theirs is a fairly platonic relationship; and one he's prepared to ditch the moment he sets eyes on the woman (literally) of his dreams: Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead).
But if Scott wants to capture the impossibly cool New Yorker's heart, he must first defeat her former lovers, the Seven Evil Exes, in video game end-level-style combat.
Thus he embarks on a kinetic, romantic quest, largely conducted within his own head, replete with slapstick violence, impressive effects and witty retorts.
The movie is based on an acclaimed series of graphic novels by Canadian cartoonist Bryan Lee O'Malley, and is directed by British film-maker Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Channel 4's TV series Spaced), here making his Hollywood debut.

Hi guys, I'm preparing to install a Telex-Hygain HG52SS, 3 section, 52ft, crank-up/tilt over, tower. This is a self-supporting tower if you make the base 3'x 3'x 6'. Windload 9.5 sq.ft. I want to make a less permanent installation as we may be out of this place in a couple of years. Therefore I was thinking of making the base approx. 2'x 2'x 2' and guy the bottom section (3 or 4 guys) at 20 ft. I'm going to use screw anchors for the guy wires. Sandy soil. Windload approx. 15 sq.ft. Ideas and comments greatly appreciated. Thanks. 73 Bert, VE3OBU _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list firstname.lastname@example.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |

Mayor Benjamin Releases Statement Following Pinson Verdict
COLUMBIA, S.C. -- (WOLO) Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin seeks to clear his own name in the aftermath of his friend and former business partner, Jonathan Pinson, being convicted of federal public corruption.
A few hours after the verdict was handed down, Benjamin released statement saying: "We have the Pinson family in our thoughts and prayers. As you are aware, I have withheld all comment while this difficult matter was before the court. As it has been reported accurately over the past few weeks, I have not been charged with any criminal offenses. Now that a verdict has been rendered, it needs to be made clear that I have done nothing illegal. My ownership interest in the Village at Rivers Edge terminated in August of 2009 and, after that date, I no longer maintained any role in the management of the project. Furthermore, after my election as Mayor in April of 2010, I conflicted myself out of all decisions directly or indirectly related to the project. This position is well documented at the City of Columbia. There were two matters reported by the media that need to be addressed. First, it has been reported that the South Carolina State Ethics Commission has inquired about a one day business trip to Orlando that was not related in any way to City of Columbia business. We have met with the Ethics Commission and are confident that after a thorough review of all of the facts, they will determine that it was a personal business trip and as such, not a matter to be reported. Second, I regret being present for certain aspects of the previously referenced trip. I should have used better judgment. However to be clear, I did not at any time engage in any illegal activity while in Orlando. As a family we are stronger than ever and we remain in prayer for our friends, and the City we love. We wish all a safe and peaceful holiday weekend." Ex-South Carolina State University Trustee Jonathan Pinson was found guilty of 29 of 45 charges in a federal corruption case. |

Serves 4
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Use a zester to remove rind from orange. (Alternatively, use a vegetable peeler to peel rind from orange. Use a small sharp knife to remove white pith from rind. Cut rind into very thin strips.) Juice the orange.
Preheat oven to 150°C. Heat half the oil in a roasting pan over medium heat. Add the leek and cook, turning, for 2 minutes or until lightly brown. Add the garlic, mustard, verjuice and 2 tablespoons of the orange juice and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat. Add witlof and stock. Bake in preheated oven, turning occasionally, for 15 minutes or until leek and witlof are tender. Add asparagus; remove from oven. Set aside, loosely covered, for 5 minutes, for asparagus to heat through.
Meanwhile, season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat remaining oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add the salmon and cook for 3-4 minutes each side for medium or until cooked to your liking.
Sprinkle the orange rind over the leek mixture. Spoon the leek mixture among serving plates. Sprinkle with watercress and top with the salmon. Serve immediately.

PHP's prepared statements (for database access) are fantastic. Not only do they help secure your database queries, but they're also particularly more efficient for larger products. However, there are a couple issues that appear to make these methods less flexible than we'd hope. For one, we must utilize the bind_result
method, and pass in a specific number of variables. However, what happens when this code is within a class, and we won't immediately know how many variables to pass? Luckily, there's a solution! I'll show you what it is in today's video tutorial.

Amazon, preparing for shipment, for Prime release delivery -- in the US, so this Friday, the 15th. And they've charged my credit card the full amount for the PS4 order. I'll get a shipped notice some time between now and 2AM my time. I expect it on Friday, not tomorrow and a day early, though sometimes that does happen.
Consider this my order-shipped post. My experience with Amazon, I've had preparing for shipment statuses that don't ship that same day, rather the next, but I've never had Amazon charge me for an order and it not ship that day.

yeah but rome wasn't built in a day, some people will miss out on launch day… but on the plus side they'll get their console eventually… guess the key is to be patient.. although hard it softens the expectations blow.
At other launch members don't have to wait another 2 and a bit weeks, if they get their console a few days after launch at least they get it before European launch countries." A Toll's a toll and a roll's a roll. If we don't get no toll's, then we don't eat no roll's"

I'm sure Amazon is also having to package and ship them in the order that they received orders just to make sure the people who placed their orders earliest are insured to get their consoles by launch. I didn't order til August and mine was bumped up to launch edition sometime after I ordered b/c they said they were getting more launch consoles than expected so I still have faith in Amazon hopefully by the end of today/early tomorrow we will all be happy and sitting on the edges of our seats waiting for Friday to come.

For his last time on the Baltimore Ravens stage, Ray Lewis wasn't going to let some trophy get in the way of his dancing.
At the Ravens' Super Bowl rally on Tuesday, Lewis brought the Lombardi Trophy out onto the field. After picking up a piece of grass and listening to the raucous cheers, Lewis handed the trophy off to Ed Reed and broke into his famous dance. The crowd at M&T Bank Stadium ate it up, seeing their man dance for one last time.
Lewis, a seven-time All-Pro linebacker, played for 17 seasons in Baltimore. Sunday's Super Bowl win was his last game.

WSJ: Google Talking to T-Mobile to Sell Nexus One
Dec 14, 2009, 9:54 PM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
Today, the Wall Street Journal reported that Google is in talks with T-Mobile to sell its recently revealed Nexus One Android phone. Citing people familiar with Google's plans, the Journal said that, "Google would offer the phone...cheaper to T-Mobile carrier's subscribers because T-Mobile would pay Google for helping sign up a new customer." Google is conducting corresponding talks with other wireless network operators. Neither Google nor T-Mobile has officially confirmed that they are in such talks.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting a woman who was once the No.1 geisha in Japan. She's a wonderful lady, funny, warm and kind. She was once a favorite of my wife's grandfather who, with his many business and social connections, helped her find sponsors and make her name. He died many years back and more recently his wife - my wife's grandmother - also passed away. This lady unassumingly took control of all the everyday things at home - cooking, cleaning, child-minding - so that the family could grieve and deal with the multitude of funeral related matters. In the evening she regaled us with geisha tales and parlor tricks. Some of the jokes and songs were surprisingly risque, but related with such grace and skill that no one could really be offended. She is well into middle age but I could see how, in her time, she must have drawn men to her like moths to a flame.
Arthur Golden's 1998 novel Memoirs of a Geisha revived interest in an aspect of Japan that is so intrinsic to the Western stereotype and yet so far removed from the reality of daily life here. Geisha do still exist and ply their trade, of course. But the role they play in modern society is minor and, except for the attention they get from camera-wielding tourists, largely unseen. In fact, most of the women captured on film are either maiko (apprentice geisha) or tourists themselves, done up for a few hours of faux sophistication and attention seeking.
But like their male counterpart the samurai, the geisha and her world continue to fascinate people around the world as part of their image of a mysterious and timeless Japan. Prostitution is of course referred to as the "oldest profession," and the history of the geisha stretches back several centuries. But while many people assume that geisha is just a Japanese word for a prostitute, the somewhat more romantic word 'courtesan' is probably closer in nuance, though even that is misleading when you consider their history. The word geisha itself literally means 'person of the arts' - indeed the earliest geisha were men - and it is as performers of dance, music and poetry that they actually spend most of their working time.
The two most famous hanamichi (geisha quarters) can be found in the capital cities of today and yesteryear, Tokyo and Kyoto. Medieval Edo, as Tokyo was formerly known, had the Yoshiwara pleasure quarters, where kabuki actors and artists would mingle with the evolving merchant class. The Edo period (1600-1868) was a time when Japan was largely closed to the outside world and also an era of great cultural development. Actors, sumo wrestlers and geisha were often the subjects of colorful ukiyo-e, woodblock prints whose name literally means 'pictures of the floating world,' a wonderful euphemism for the world of carnal desires.
In the case of Kyoto, entertainment was to be found in the Shimabara district. Even today, geiko, as they are referred to in Kyoto, and maiko entertain customers in traditional teahouses.
History of geisha Geisha have their roots in female entertainers such as the Saburuko of the 7th century and the Shirabyoshi, who emerged around the early 13th century. They would perform for the nobility and some even became concubines to the emperor. It was in the late 16th century that the first walled-in pleasure quarters were built in Japan. Like so many aspects of Japanese culture, they were modelled after those of Ming Dynasty China. After they were relocated in the mid-1600s, they became known as Shimabara (after a fortress in Kyushu).
Meanwhile a marshy patch of land (Yoshi-wara) in Edo had been designated as the site for a brothel district under the auspices of the Tokugawa shogunate. Brothels and the like were not allowed to operate outside the district and strict rules were applied. Included among these were that no customers were allowed to stay in a brothel more than 24 hours; courtesans were to wear simple dyed kimonos; and any suspicious or unknown visitors were to be reported to the Office of the City Governor.
With Japan enjoying a long-awaited period of peace following centuries of civil war, many samurai found that society no longer had such need of their services. It's thought that many daughters of these formerly noble families became courtesans, with the result that quarters such as Yoshiwara and Shimabara were places of refinement and culture. Peace also brought an increase in prosperity and the rise of the merchant class, or chonin. Add that to the presence of artists and an atmosphere free of the strictures of the outside world, and it truly was something of an adult amusement park, with culture thrown in for good measure.
Within the hanamichi there were many different classes of courtesans, and over the decades the hierarchy and the standards expected of them changed many times, not always for the better. The situation deteriorated in the mid-18th century to the extent that a new form of entertainer emerged in Kyoto and Osaka. The earliest geiko were men, while the first females, who appeared shortly after, were odoriko (dancers) or played the shamisen. Female geisha soon became popular enough to be able to steal clients from the courtesans, and in the case of Yoshiwara it was decided to start a kenban, or registration system, to keep them under control and force them to pay taxes. It strictly controlled their dress, behaviour and movements and was considered so successful that it quickly became the norm at hanamichi across Japan.
These strict rules in fact allowed the geisha to flourish as artists and entertainers. Though more simply dressed than the courtesans, they became regarded as fashion leaders. But many aspects of the lifestyle itself were less glamorous. Young girls were sold into the geisha life by their families until the mid-20th century and were often subject to the ritual of 'mizu-age,' whereby their virginity was sold to the highest bidder. Such practices were eradicated after World War II and the geisha profession went into a steady decline. Today, if geisha are hired to entertain at a private party outside the upper eschelons of society, they are most likely to be seasoned veterans, more akin to your favorite aunt or even grandmother than the girl next door.

KREMMLING – The well-known chain Family Dollar has found a home in the heart of Kremmling.
"Family Dollar" is a dollar store company that has over 7,000 locations across the nation. Construction for the highly anticipated dollar store started mid-June and is anticipated to be complete by the end of this summer.
Having a new business come to the town of Kremmling is stirring up many different emotions from community members. Some residents say they are excited the new business will create jobs in town. Also, townspeople are hopeful the new dollar store can attract business from travelers and locals alike.
Although the new dollar store may be a profitable business for Kremmling, the store's character is leaving some locals questioning the town's design guidelines. Town officials responded saying every Family Dollar across the nation has the same look with the same metal exterior and the signature red roof. The only way a Family Dollar building would look different is if they rebuilt the inside of an already standing structure. Each of the dollar store's buildings are built from the ground up and have a standard design for construction. Many locals believe the Family Dollar is here to stay.

Nokia Closes on Symbian Deal; Foundation in Sight
Mobile networking firm Nokia now has the requisite majority shares in Symbian Limited to complete the purchase of the mobile phone OS manufacturer. All Symbian employees will become Nokia employees as of February 1, 2009.
Nokia's having reached the 99.9% share in Symbian also clears the way for the Symbian Foundation that was first announced in June 2008. The foundation originally included Nokia, AT&T, LG Electronics, Motorola, NTT DOCOMO, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, ST-NXP Wireless, Texas Instruments and Vodafone. Its goal is to open up the Symbian platform so as to innovate development on all the mobile phones of the member companies.
Since June, the Symbian Foundation has grown to 60 members and 300 more are ready to jump on board, according to Lee Williams, the newly nominated executive director. The foundation commits to providing a complete open source solution for mobile network devices under the Eclipse Public License 1.0 by 2010. Until then the member companies will be committing assets and resources to the foundation. Nokia will provide its S60 components, Motorola and Sony Ericsson will donate UIQ, and NTT DOCOMO and Fujitsu will contribute MOAP(S), the Mobile Oriented Applications Platform for Symbian OS.

Formatted abstract
The falls rate for ageing Australians has not decreased despite the implementation of a
range of interventions for older adults at risk of a fall. Reduced postural stability (balance)
is a known risk factor for falls and many studies have demonstrated detrimental changes in
sensori-motor factors in adults over 65 years. Few studies have studied the mid-life period
and concurrently investigated underlying sensori-motor contributors to changes in postural
stability across successive age decades. This research program addressed this gap by
investigating postural stability, demographics, health factors and sensori-motor function in
women aged 20 to 80 years. The overall objective of this research program was to improve
knowledge of the pre-clinical period of decline in postural stability and associated
demographic, health and sensori-motor factors to inform strategies towards healthier
Two major cross-sectional studies of women were undertaken. In the first, laboratory and
clinical measures of postural stability were collected from 430 women aged 20 to 80 years
and compared across age decades. People with musculo-skeletal pathology and any
neurological disorder likely to contribute to postural instability were excluded from the
study with the age, height and weight of each participant measured and their reported health
and physical activity recorded. When velocity of sway was analysed across the 10-second
trial period, all test conditions demonstrated reduced postural stability from the 60s. The
tasks of bilateral stance (foam eyes open (EO) and eyes closed (EC)) and one-leg stance
(EO and EC) revealed the most interesting findings with increased velocity of sway
(reduced stability) evident across the mid-life period and subsequent decades. A three-way
interaction of age, support and visual condition was established, suggesting changes in
somatosensory and vestibular systems in particular were likely contributors to the reduced
stability in both mid-life and older decades and thus warranted further investigation1.
Whilst these findings were compelling, their translation into clinical or field use may be
limited when computerized (although portable) equipment was used to measure postural
stability. To address this, test conditions yielding failed trials - bilateral stance (foam EC)
and one-leg stance (firm surface, EO and EC) - were further investigated. Three categoriesof stability were investigated for participating women: stable (no failed trials), unsteady (1
or 2 failed trails) and unstable (failed all trials) categories. Differences in demographics
were revealed between the categories with those classified as unsteady and unstable
presenting with multiple risk factors for falls: older women, reporting more medical
conditions, more medications, more falls and less activity compared to those categorized as
stable. For foam (EC) and one-leg stance (firm EO) a low failure rate in mid-life and older
age decades was recorded whereas a high failure rate for one leg stance (firm EC) was
recorded in all decades (>25%), suggesting that this task was less able to differentiate
stability between decades when failed trials were considered. Thus it was recommended
that the sensori-motor causal factors associated with instability in bilateral stance (foam EO
and EC) and on one-leg (firm EO) warranted further investigation as these tests may have
potential as screening tools for instability from the mid-life and thus identify those who
may benefit from referral for pre-emptive education and intervention to foster healthier
The second major cross-sectional study was undertaken to investigate postural stability,
functional balance and mobility as well as possible contributing demographics and sensorimotor
factors in 320 healthy women aged 20 to 80 years. Pathology likely to contribute to
postural instability was again excluded. Age-related changes in postural stability were
confirmed for the study cohort while investigations of underlying sensori-motor factors
revealed that lower limb strength, vision, vestibular function and somatosensation all
reduced with increasing age, but that earlier significant reductions were evident in vision
and somatosensation (by the 40s or 50s) compared with vestibular function (by the 60s) and
strength (by the 70s). Associations between demographics and sensori-motor factors and
each postural stability and functional balance and mobility measures within each age
decade were investigated. Findings were used to develop a rationale for the delivery and
advocacy of functional weight-bearing programs that target both sensory and muscular
systems to improve stability during mid-life and into older decades to foster healthier
In the final study, demographics, functional task performances, strength and sensory system
function were compared between those categorized as stable, unsteady and unstable whenstanding on foam (EC) and on one-leg (firm, EO). Those categorized as unsteady or
unstable were older, used more medications, reported more co-morbidities and were less
active than stable women. They performed less ably on functional balance tests, and
showed reduced lower limb muscle strength, somatosensation and vision compared with
those classified as stable4.
The studies presented in this thesis provide support for the premise that postural stability
deteriorates across the lifespan and that demographic and sensori-motor factors may
explain earlier reductions in postural stability during mid-life for some women. This earlier
reduction in postural stability highlights the need for public health initiatives that identify
early deterioration in postural stability and associated demographic and sensori-motor risk
factors for falls. To begin to address this issue, the studies presented here have identified
simple clinical measures of postural stability that may be further developed as screening
tools to identify women who may need a more detailed investigation of falls risk factors.
The evidence is used to support rationale for targeting the sensory and muscular systems for
exercise based pre-emptive interventions during mid-life and into older decades for
healthier ageing.

Tim is a climate information scientist within the National Climate Information Centre (NCIC). He produces, analyses and presents information about the UK climate.
The NCIC monitors the UK land-surface climate and is responsible for the provision of monthly, seasonal and annual summaries for the UK and its constituent regions. Noteworthy weather affecting the UK (such as floods, gales and heatwaves) is studied and placed into context against historical records. Tim has supported the UK Climate Projections project (UKCP09), by producing datasets of derived statistics (e.g. heaviest 10-day rainfall amounts) for the UK 5 km by 5 km grid.
Another important aspect of Tim's work has been a comparison of readings from various meteorological instruments in connection with the roll-out of the Meteorological Monitoring System (MMS), which is the new surface automatic weather-station network.
Tim maintains and develops the historical long-term data-sets of CET and HadUKP. He also assists with answering climate enquiries, and in producing the regular UK weather summaries each month.
Tim graduated from the University of Reading in 1984 with a degree in Physics and Meteorology and joined the Met Office that same year. He worked in the Synoptic Climatology branch, which included experimental monthly forecasting as well as analysis of historical climatological series. Over the years he moved towards shorter-range forecasting research, including pioneering work with ensembles. Then, in 2008, he moved back into the field of climatology.

Last UT Symphony Concert-Out with a Bang!
So I played my final UT Symphony Orchestra concert last Wed. I have completed my large ensemble degree requirements and will be student teaching. I truly love orchestral playing so it was a little sad playing my last concert at UT, but it was superb! I had the opportunity to play principal viola.
My friend TK soloed with us on Mozarts bassoon concerto in b flat major. Mozart wrote this piece when he was 18 years old! TK did an amazing job, and flutist Joanna Martin performed Frank Martins Ballade for Flute and Orchestra. Both were winners of the UT Wind Solo Competition.
Along with our fabulous wind players, Wes Schultz conducted the orchestra in the award winning piece, Rainbow Body, by Christopher Theofanidis. In the words of the composer, this piece represents the idea that when an enlightened being dies, his or her body doesnt decay, but instead is absorbed back into the universe as energy and light. Theofanidis incorporated a 900 year old chant written by the visionary, mystic, saint, composer, poet, naturalist, and physician Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179), also known as the Sybil of the Rhine.
I first encountered Hildegard of Bingen in my music history class my freshman year while researching ancient music. I stumbled across this amazing, powerful medieval female figure who recounted visions and left an imprint in many fields. Some people believe that she suffered from extreme migraines, causing her extraordinary visions. In any case she was a prolific writer of music and scientific observations. My violin is actually named after her.
Theofanidis used Hildegards chant Ave maria O auxtrix vite (Hail mary, source of life) as the underlying theme. Theofanidis also added cheering to the end of the work after hearing the London Symphony cheer while performing it. As a tradition, if the London Symphony likes a new work they cheer while playing. The sonic concoction appealed to Theofanidis, hence he edited the cheering into the end of the piece for an interesting effect.
Last but not least Maestro Zimmermann conducted Tchaikovskys Symphony no. 4 in F Major. This is one of my favorite symphonies. Tchaikovsky weaves a never-ending seam of extraordinary beautiful melodies. Elements of Tchaikovskys tragic life seem to penetrate from the page. The last movement catapults one into a heart-racing frenzied Russian fest finale.
I would say that this was a wonderful program to end my UT Symphony career. I am looking forward to listening to UT Symphony performances next semester.

go to socalsuperstrucks.com and go to there gallery they have alot of trucks with the CST Suspension 4.5 inch spindle lift go check em out. ive talked to a guy with a 07 nbs 1500 with the 4.5 spindle lift and his truck is 2wd and he is runnin 35s with no rubbing
How much did that 4" BDS lift cost? is the factory track width still retained or is it pushed out some? I am looking at getting a 4" but want to be able to maintain the factory width and my level kit with my 5.5" backspaced rims don't stick out from the body, which is what I want to keep once I get a 4" kit
Kit cost about 1600. That's a tough question to answer. My fronts stick out about an inch, but my backs are perfectly in line. To be honest I think you would be okay.
http://www.fabtechmotorsports.com/products/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=921&display=GMC/CHEVY%204WD Here is a fairly new option from Fabtech. I have not seen/heard anything pro or con about this kit. It is something I am looking into for the extra lift from my level kit. I like the price for the non dirt logic shocks. I think I saw it for $650.
looks interesting, tho it says something about not using factory wheels and tires. and alox, when did you get the mud tires, lol. just saw them in your sig. Alex

dc.description.abstract | ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Concrete water retaining structures (WRS) in South Africa are under scrutiny due to the numerous durability problems that they have experienced lately; despite the efforts by local and national authorities in conserving these structures. At the heart of these problems are the creep and shrinkage phenomena. While shrinkage is the reduction of concrete volume with time, creep is defined as the time-dependent increase of concrete strain under constant or controlled stress. Both phenomena are affected by conditions to which WRS are exposed hence their accurate prediction is required. Numerical models have been developed to calculate the extent to which concrete creeps or shrinks over time. The objective of this thesis is to identify which of these models is better equipped to be used in South African WRS design. This is achieved through a systematic method that involves an investigation into the contents of these models and a statistical comparison of model calculations to WRS representative data. In partnership with reputable universities, a pioneer experimental creep and shrinkage data base is created in this project from which the WRS related data is selected. While investigating the contents of the numerical models, their applicability to South African WRS is identified and the integrity of model contents is assessed. Indeed, a few irregularities are found in the process and are presented in this thesis. The model calculations are statistically compared to data in the form of individual experiments as well as in the form of groups of experiments with similar concretes to find the ideal prediction model for different types of concretes as well. Also pioneered in this project is a weighted criteria and point system in which the findings of the model content assessment and statistical evaluations are incorporated. It is based on this system that conclusions are drawn and the most suitable prediction model for WRS design in South Africa is selected. | en_ZA |
