Experience life as an older person with an"old-age suit" developed by engineers at MIT.
An "old suit" developed by MIT AgeLab
If you want to feel way older than you are, give Agnes a call. She's guaranteed to make you feel bent and creaky before your time.
"Agnes" is a head-to-toe "old-age suit" developed by engineers at MIT's AgeLab. Using Dickies coveralls as a base, the suits feature bungee cord-like bands that prevent full extension of limbs, braces that make it harder to move them, shoes that impede balance and glasses that blur the fine print. It makes anyone who puts one on feel like they have the body of the average 75-year-old.
Used first by engineers in their mid-20s, the adjustable suits are now being tried out by corporate designers, product developers and even sales executives who want to understand the difficulties of opening a jar, maneuvering through a store or just walking down the street when you have a dowager's hump, diabetes or arthritis.
"Most people are so fatigued after five minutes of wearing one that they have to fight the urge to sit down," said Angelina Gerris, the MIT research associate in charge of Agnes management. "One guy tried to open a box of his own company's cake mix and said, 'This is too hard, I'll just buy a ready-made one.' It really allows you to pick up on things that older adults have just learned to cope with over time, like having more difficulty turning a doorknob."
Another reason that Agnes (an acronym for Age Gain Now Empathy System) may become increasingly useful for market research is that no previous generation has ever been more against appearing old.
"Baby boomers, especially, want their stuff to look cool," Gennis said. "They don't want anything that screams 'geriatric,' like those bulky gray cellphones with four buttons."
Agnes is also providing a public service, Gennis said, by persuading at least some of her wearers to improve their health habits while they're young.

I have had a long professional career. I taught at private and public schools for many years, and worked as a writer, as a librarian, and as an artist and decorative painter. I ran a bed and breakfast establishment several years ago and am now enjoying the hosting here on Airbnb. I am passionate about Flamenco music and dance, and I love to read and spend time in nature.
Leslie has completed online and offline ID verification.
The host canceled my reservation 3 days before arrival.
We had a lovely time at Boston in Leslie's place. Her instructions were clear the decor and furnishing of the apartment was charming. It is very close to the Malden train station which is a short ride to the centre of Boston. We would love to have stayed longer. There was also a wealth of information on Boston in the apartment which made it easy orient ourselves to a very interesting and enjoyable city. We would recommended this apartment and Leslie to anyone wanting to stay in the Boston area.
I had a wonderful and cozy stay at Leslie's place. It felt like home away from home. Leslie is also a great host: she forgot the clean sheet for the bed and immediately went to get it for me. Definitely recommend staying here.
Leslie's place is indeed a "jewel"! She takes good care of her place and her guests. Would definitely stay here again
I would stay at this condo again in a heartbeat. My only concern is that other people will read this review and will book it at the same time I would be needing it. Thanks again Leslie for your kind hospitality. Your place is a Jewel See you next fall. Francis
Leslie was such an amazing host, and the apartment was so lovely! we stayed only for 2 nights and wished we stayed longer. the place is close to public transport, and is in a safe neighbourhood. Boston was freezing when we stayed there but the apartment was so warm and toasty :) I definitely recommend Leslie's place!
Imagine that you are in a 5 star hotel, what kind of details would you expect? You will find double or triple of it in Leslie's condo . There is nothing else that you will need, every detail is already thought by Leslie one by one and given to you in this place. It is super clean, comfortable and peaceful. T station is in a short walking distance and the garage is a life saver . Leslie is very easy to communicate and a very good host. If we go to Boston again, we know where to stay. Thank you Leslie.
Leslie's apartment is adorable place. She is very well-organized and thoughtful. The apartment has almost everything you need, I even found a spare toothbrush since I forgot bring mine and I arrived there too late to buy a new one. The place is closed to T station, and the area seems nice. I would recommend my friend to stay there and I will definitely considering staying if I go again. Thank you, Leslie.
A great stay! Leslie was a great hostess - making sure that all of our needs were met. She made sure we got in ok (even at an un-Godly hour) and that we have all that we needed. Leaving behind all the maps and a Charlie Card was a nice touch! As for the place - charming, comfortable and convenient. The metro stop was only a few blocks away and only a few stops from the action. This is a great alternative to the pricey downtown hotels
Leslie greeted me at the door of the building and walked me upstairs to the unit, showing me the unique features of the building. Then she was kind enough to walk me through the unit and help me better understand where everything was located, taking time to point out exit routes and the most interesting things about the apartment. The property itself was nicely located, about 7 minutes from the Orange Line "T" and within walking distance to just about all of the attractions in Malden. I found it really wonderful to be able to get to anywhere between downtown Boston and the Jewel within about 30 minutes. When I go back to Boston, I will assuredly choose the Jewel.
I have known Leslie for many years. She is a mature, compassionate person with a wide range of interests and talents. With an artist's sensibility, everything she touches expresses elegance and style. Her sense of responsibility and attention to detail make her reliable. I've seen her exquisite Malden apartment which she has furnished with beautiful antiques and accessories—many of her own making. A stay at her Jewel of a condo will be a cozy, comfortable, and memorable one you will want to repeat. And you will feel an instant bond with Leslie, not only because of her welcoming manner and great smile, but most importantly because of her commitment to your comfort.

The Alcoholics Anonymous Camel symbol
The camel each day goes twice to his knees.
He picks up his load with the greatest of ease.
He walks through the day with his head held high.
And stays for that day, completely dry.
Spiritual Principles
Sobriety – One day at a time.
Dr Bob, physician, and a cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous – ". . . would explain prayer by telling how the camels in a caravan would kneel down in the evening, and the men would unload their burdens. In the morning, they would kneel down again, and the men would put the burdens back on. 'It's the same with prayer,' Dr. Bob said. 'We get on our knees to unload at night. And in the morning when we get on our knees again, God gives us just the load we are able to carry for that day.'" Dr. Bob and the Good Oldtimers (1980), page 229
"The tasks of the day can pass with ease
when a camel or I start on our knees.
One Master we serve, the camel and I,
and stay for that day completely dry."

Hadden, Nancy (2010) From Swiss Flutes to Consorts: History, Music and Playing Techniques of the Transverse Flute in Switzerland, Germany and France ca. 1470-1640. PhD thesis, University of Leeds.

The flute consort was popular for music-making in civilian society from about the second quarter of the sixteenth century, especially in Germany and France where the main sources of music and instruction books were published between about 1520 and 1560. Prior to the development of the consort, the flute was primarily played by Swiss and German soldiers, in a duo with a large drum. Their presence on the battlefield and playing for court entertainments can be documented from around 1470, and it would appear that their presence at court provided the impetus for civilian players to take up the flute and transform it to an instrument for soft chamber music. An introductory chapter deals with the instrument itself, describing its design features, surviving instruments, a short background history of the flute in the years leading up to the fifteenth century, and the names by which the so-called 'Renaissance flute' was known. Chapter 2 examines the contexts and activities of the Swiss and German military flautists, their movement into the courts of Europe, and the subsequent development of the flute consort, through a study of Swiss chronicles, court and city documents and payment records, pictures and musical sources. Chapter 3 follows the rise and development of flute consort playing in Germany and France ca. 1520 -1560; I have focused on this period in these two countries, because the main sources of consort music and instruction books were published there. Relevant activities of Swiss flutes and flute consorts in other European centres supplement the discussion. Chapter 4 is devoted to an analysis of historic playing techniques. Important original source materials have been studied and interpreted, including some seventeenth-century treatises which indicate the survival of sixteenth-century playing techniques. Instruction books, along with evidence from surviving instruments, music and other written documents have made it possible to create a comprehensive method for playing the Renaissance flute.

3 guitar instrumental. Written in honour of a bong I used to have 8 ). Full version.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I sat here trying to think of a short summary to put at the headline up there. Then I realized I was just sitting here marvelling at the pure harmony coming from every lick of sound from every guitar. Instantly my favorite. The music retells blissful times like a master storyteller would around awestruck children.
Thank you for the great music.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
very nice-
this is a very wel composed song with a fine melody, and tyheme, and the suuporting guitars are as awsome as thye lead guitar, very well composed nice job
Cheers Bjra. Reading all these reviews is making me want to seriously get back into recording. If I only I had more spare time...
Rated 5 / 5 stars
i don really care for guitar music much, but this was REALLY well made, its quite fast even though it has a slow feeling to it.
i dont play an instrument so good job, my instument is my brain lol.
its some AWESOME professional sounding guitar music, you should think about maybe singing with it or getting somone else to and sellin it, i mean i don like it but i KNOW lots of other people would .
that dude that reviewed a 2 was a fag
Wasn't he just? Thanks for the great review even though it's not your preferred kind of music. Feel free to sample my work if you want to use it in one of your tracks, it would be interesting to hear it used in a rave or trance track.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Nice song
I really like this song, and kudos to you, so far you are the only person on this site I know of who can finger pick better than me. Pity I dont have any (good) audio at the moment to show you what I mean. How long have you been playing?
20 years now. I'd like to hear your playing, I always have respect for acoustic fingerpickers

Newton (5-5) at Westwood (9-1): Westwood WR Nolan Borgersen is 67 yards shy of the state single-season record of 1,689 set by Mike O'Brien of Butler in 1997. Newton is led on defense by Garrett Richards, Adrian Rodriguez and Casey Thomas.
Westwood, 31-17
Waldwick (8-2) at North Warren (8-2): Both teams scored 48 points in blowout victories in the first round. North Warren, the second seed, defeated Lenape Valley, 48-7. Scott Palmer ran for three TDs, including a 79-yard score in the first quarter. Third-seeded Waldwick defeated Glen Rock, 48-0, as Tyree Lee ran for three scores. This one is as close as it gets, but North Warren has a slight advantage in the passing game.
North Warren, 21-20

About this font family
Nutcase is a perfect example of a font that principally designed itself.
I created a hexagonal template (the most economical form in nature by the way) and took out the center to increase the decorative element. I played around with it, creating some pleasing characters at first but it soon became clear it would translate into a complete alphabet, so I set to work applying the idea to both upper and lower cases.
It wasn't all straight forward though, avoiding awkward characters and retaining legibility took a little perseverance but it eventually paid off. More…

Russia's dispatch of long-range bombers to Venezuela for joint military exercises may not signal the start of a new Cold War, but it does provide more evidence that Hugo Chávez has become the chief source of hemispheric instability. To be sure, the Venezuelan president is increasingly unpopular in Latin America (and increasingly unpopular at home), and his influence over regional politics is declining. But high oil prices have given him the power to cause trouble and threaten U.S. interests.
Venezuela's announcement that it will stage war games with Russian forces was at least partly a response to American security policy. Earlier this year, the U.S. Navy reestablished its Fourth Fleet, which had been disestablished way back in 1950. The Fourth Fleet will oversee U.S. naval activities in Latin American and Caribbean waters. By planning sophisticated military maneuvers with Russian warships, Chávez is making a bold show of anti-Yankee defiance. (The Kremlin, of course, has its own reasons for wanting to irritate Washington.)
His pockets bulging with oil wealth, Chávez has spent billions of petrodollars on Russian weapons. He has also reached out to Iran and cultivated warm bilateral relations. As the Los Angeles Times recently reported, Western officials fear that the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah "is using Venezuela as a base for operations." One Western anti-terrorism official told the Times that the Venezuela-Iran relationship is "becoming a strategic partnership."
In mid-June, the U.S. Treasury Department designated two Venezuelans--a former Venezuelan diplomat (Ghazi Nasr al Din) and a travel agency operator (Fawzi Kan'an)--as financial supporters of Hezbollah and froze their assets. Adam J. Szubin, director of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), charged the Venezuelan government with "employing and providing safe harbor to Hezbollah facilitators and fundraisers."
In its latest survey of global terrorism, released this past April, the U.S. State Department noted that in March 2007, "Iran and Venezuela began weekly Iran Airlines flights connecting Tehran and Damascus with Caracas. Passengers on these flights were not subject to immigration and customs controls at Simón Bolívar International Airport." In June 2007, a man suspected of plotting to bomb New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport "was arrested at the airport in Port of Spain, Trinidad, on board a flight destined for Caracas, Venezuela. He had an onward ticket to Tehran. Venezuelan citizenship, identity, and travel documents remained easy to obtain, making Venezuela a potentially attractive way station for terrorists."
Speaking of terrorists, Chávez's links to the drug-running FARC terrorists of Colombia have recently become much clearer. Several months ago, Colombian military forces launched a raid on FARC combatants and wound up recovering computer files that detailed Venezuelan efforts to arm and finance the left-wing guerrillas. Last week, shortly after Venezuela expelled the U.S. ambassador in Caracas, Treasury froze the assets of three Venezuelans--two top intelligence officials and a former government minister--whom it accused of financing the FARC.
"Today's designation exposes two senior Venezuelan government officials and one former official who armed, abetted, and funded the FARC, even as it terrorized and kidnapped innocents," said Szubin, the OFAC chief. One of those Venezuelans, former interior and justice minister Ramón Rodríguez Chacín, allegedly tried "to facilitate a $250 million dollar loan from the Venezuelan government to the FARC in late 2007." FARC leaders are heavily involved in narcotics trafficking. By supporting them, Venezuela is aiding a criminal network with global connections.
As Venezuelan economist and Foreign Policy editor Moisés Naím wrote in late 2007, Venezuela under Chávez "has become a major hub for international crime syndicates. What attracts them is not the local market; what they really love are the excellent conditions Venezuela offers to anyone in charge of managing a global criminal network." According to Naím, "A senior Dutch police officer told me that he and his European colleagues are spending more time in Caracas than in Bogotá, Colombia, and that the heads of many of the major criminal cartels now operate with impunity, and effectiveness, from Venezuela." Earlier this month, a Colombian drug kingpin named Edgar Vallejo Guarín was arrested in Madrid. As Reuters reported, "Spanish police found Vallejo Guarín had used Venezuelan documentation to obtain residency in Spain under the assumed name of Jairo Gómez" (emphasis added). Chávez is not representative of the broader Latin American left, and he is less powerful than he appears. Nevertheless, his regime has become a menace to democracy and stability throughout the region. Writing in the latest issue of Foreign Affairs, former Mexican foreign minister Jorge Castañeda argues that certain regional powers, such as Mexico and Colombia, have been reluctant to stand up to Chávez because they "are terrified of being left hanging by Washington."
It is, alas, not an unreasonable fear. The failure of Congress to approve a free trade deal with Colombia, the closest and most important U.S. ally in South America, has had a profoundly negative effect on U.S. credibility. Meanwhile, as Castañeda observes, the recent U.S.-Mexican wrangling over a bilateral aid package (the Mérida initiative) left Mexican president Felipe Calderón feeling "embarrassed." "If anything," Castañeda writes, "the incident made Calderón even more wary of waging the battle of ideas against Chávez and the Castro brothers."
The lesson for John McCain and Barack Obama is clear: The next U.S. president must unequivocally affirm America's commitment to supporting and protecting its democratic partners in Latin America. That means, among other things, pressing Congress to approve the U.S.-Colombia free trade pact, aiding Mexico in its increasingly bloody war on drugs, and deepening regional economic cooperation. In addition, the United States must continue putting a financial squeeze on those Venezuelans (inside and outside of government) who are funneling money to terrorist groups and global crime networks.
Chávez often speaks and acts like a buffoon; his rhetoric and antics can be utterly risible. Yet due to what journalist Michael Reid (in his book Forgotten Continent) calls "an accident of history"--the recent boom in oil prices--the Venezuelan strongman cannot be ignored.

COLUMBIA — Nate Murray, 13, from Alexandria, Va., took two determined dribbles along the baseline before glancing at a teammate waving his hands wildly directly underneath the basket.
But before Nate could make a decision to shoot or pass, a buzzer interrupted, and the final day of the MU Wheelchair Basketball Camp came to a close. The second annual camp for ages 12 to 19 ran for five days and was held in the MU Student Recreation Complex.
MU's wheelchair basketball team coach Ron Lykins patted Nate on the back and told the other campers to form a huddle. Ray Petty, a wheelchair basketball coach from Topeka, Kan., watched from the sideline.
"This camp has come a long ways, thanks to MU and Coach Lykins," Petty said. "I think all of the kids are worn out, but they know it is worth the experience and have grown because of it."
Petty, who was there to pick up his Kansas team, said that as long as his players bring him good reviews, he will come back.
One of Petty's players, Josh Ruoff, 15, said he will definitely be back next year. He said his speed and shot had "gotten loads better."
"Coach Lykins is the best coach I have ever seen," Josh said. "He just has this way of communicating with you. He finds out what's wrong and how to fix it."
For Ashley McGeeney, 16, of Kansas City, this was her first basketball wheelchair camp experience.
"I simply loved it," Ashley said. "I have gained lifelong friends and will surely be coming back next year."
Basketball is now tied with tennis for her favorite sport.
Due to spina bifida, a birth defect that affects the spinal cord, Ashley has been in a wheelchair her entire life. Her mother, Patty McGeeney, said that in addition to confidence, the camp has given her daughter "a feeling of community and belonging that is priceless."
"Playing basketball with other kids around her age in wheelchairs shows Ashley that she is not alone in the experiences she has undergone," McGeeney said.
Lykins said last year's two-day camp drew 14 participants and cost $5, because it was a much shorter program and excluded food and housing. This year's program had 26 participants from 11 states and cost $425, including housing at Johnston Hall and food at Plaza 900.
"What we are looking for in the next year is growth, which will certainly come with time," Lykins said.

The decade-long romance of Parker Noon and Lily Wolfe ended while recording The Low Lows, the duo's third album. However, their heavy hearts have given listeners the most daring and thoughtful record of their career. Once more a silvered, cinematic tone is cast. From the slow-motion drunkenness of "I Am a Gun" and spring-like lull of "June Gloom" to name-dropping Stephen Merritt, a fellow moper, in "Suit of Fire," Noon doesn't hold back when feeling sorry for himself. In fact, he steps up to the mic, pours his heart out, and refuses to leave. Please don't balk at such behavior; it really is endearing. He really makes an effort in exploring the capacity of his voice. His voice is much more clear-cut, unlike his presence on earlier outings like Hello Halo and Here Comes Winter; it allows the listener to feel the somber emotion in The Low Lows. Wolfe stays in the shadows a bit more, giving Noon's fragile, harrowing vocals the spotlight. Her warm, girlish vocals turn cool. She veils herself through instruments; a quiet menagerie of assorted organs, vibraphones, and bells, they waltz along to Noon's gloomy combination of steel guitar, brass, and strings. Wolfe's sweetness, prominent on the first two albums, isn't really there anymore. Noon has to strive for it on his own. He whimpers "Don't blink your stylish eyes like that at me/ You're not the f***ing prom queen" at Wolfe during "The Last Good Night." Such dolefulness is somewhat repaired offset with the carnival-like draw of brass and organs that embellish the piece. Noon mewls on until the very end. Noon does give thanks to her on "The Smashing Party" and Wolfe's hushed backing vocals attempt to soothe his aching soul. Don't be sad when listening to The Low Lows. Parker and Lily have achieved their most realized set of material, and it's a beautiful album. Just because their love has ended doesn't mean the music is done. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi

What is Lanoxicaps?
Lanoxin 125 mcg Tab
Drug Name:
Other Brand Names:
Lanoxicaps, Lanoxin
Digoxin is used to treat heart failure, usually along with other medications. It is also used to treat a certain type of irregular heartbeat (chronic atrial fibrillation). Treating heart failure may help maintain your ability to walk and exercise and may improve the strength of your heart. Treating an irregular heartbeat can decrease the risk for blood clots, an effect that may reduce your risk for a heart attack or stroke. Digoxin belongs to a class of medications called cardiac glycosides. It works by affecting certain minerals (sodium and potassium) inside heart cells. This reduces strain on the heart and helps it maintain a normal, steady, and strong heartbeat.

Greenpeace ship's Arctic Sunrise arrives in Dakar welcomed by a flotilla of local fishermen on their pirogue boats. West African waters including those of Senegal have been subject to overfishing for decades, the effects of which are being felt by local communities. The scientific community recognizes that fishing capacity of many stocks must be reduced in order to ensure the long term sustainability of West Africa's marine resources. Greenpeace is campaigning in West Africa for the establishment of a sustainable, low impact fisheries policy that takes into account the needs and interests of small-scale fishermen and the local communities that depend on healthy oceans.

Application of the SKYRAD Improved Langley plot method for the in situ calibration of CIMEL Sun–sky photometers
Applied Optics, Vol. 46, Issue 14, pp. 2688-2702 (2007)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1189 KB)
The in situ procedure for determining the solar calibration constants, originally developed for the PREDE Sun–sky radiometers and based on a modified version of the Langley plot, was applied to a CIMEL instrument located in Valencia, Spain, not integrated into AERONET. Taking into account the different mechanical and electronic characteristics of the two radiometers, the method was adapted to the characteristics of the CIMEL instrument. The iterative procedure for the determination of the solar calibration constants was applied to a 3-year data set. The results were compared with the two sets of experimental calibration constants determined during this period using the standard Langley plot method. The agreement was found to be consistent with the experimental errors, and the method can definitely also be used to determine the solar calibration constant for the CIMEL instrument, improving its calibration. The method can be used provided the radiometer is previously calibrated for diffuse radiance using a standard lamp.

Best wishes. I don't care whether it's cheap, as long as I don't have to pay. Java is not cheap, but it is zero cost to me, just like Perl does. There is a reversed movement going on nowadays, some people started to move away from open source. People are finally pissed by the I-didn't-ask-you-to-use-my-shit attitude.

The stock market can be a nerve-wracking place. If investors own shares of Netflix or RadioShack, they know all about the market's so-called mood swings. Investors have watched shares of Netflix fluctuate over the past few days with 10% swings in both directions. RadioShack shareholders, meanwhile, recently saw their shares rise 12% after a tough year of declines. These share-price movements are largely driven by analysts' buy and sell recommendations, and it's important for long-term investors to exercise discretion when reacting to these large moves.
Don't react: Manage your expectations
The large moves in Netflix's share price haven't changed the fundamentals of the business. Netflix still competes with large players Apple, Amazon.com, and Google to attract consumers. Right now it appears there will be a content war, as consumers can switch platforms easily to get the content in demand. The question is whether Netflix will be able to compete with such large balance sheets.
Yet it's important to not get caught up in the day-to-day hype when investing for the long term. If these fluctuations are giving you indigestion, it's probably a good time to evaluate your expectations. You should be aware of why you have ownership in a company and what kind of events would cause you to exit your position. If you're not comfortable with the expectations you have set for a company, consider sitting down and re-evaluating your positions.
See more in the following video.
Are you feeling uneasy about the precipitous drop in Netflix shares since the summer of 2011? While the company's first-mover status is often viewed as a competitive advantage, the opportunities in streaming media have brought some new, deep-pocketed rivals looking for their piece of a growing pie. Can Netflix fend off this burgeoning competition, and will its international growth aspirations really pay off? These kinds of issues are a must-know for investors, which is why we've released a brand-new premium report on Netflix. Inside, you'll learn about the key opportunities and risks facing the company, as well as reasons to both buy and sell the stock. We're also offering a full year of updates as key news hits, so make sure to click here and claim a copy today.

The Process
back to all news » March 21, 2012I'm still working on the documentary and because of a fantastic team we're really making headway. My editor Sarah Deuel has revolutionized the edit and my animators have been working around the clock to help me finish this project.
You might be wondering what I've been doing if I have someone else editing my doc and other people doing the animation. Well for the record, I do a little of both. For example, I work alongside Sarah with her edit so that we know what to animate. Then I create an animatic, like below:
Then my animators help bring the animatic to life. I don't want to show too much but here's a quick preview.
This has been a very long and exhausting process but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Disney purchases Lucasfilm Ltd. - new Star Wars film in 2015

Ooops, I meant that last comment to imply that this announcement was so huge and came so totally out of the blue that it blew my mind. Not that I was planning to blow my brains out.
Disney and Lucasfilm have always had a work partnership ever since Star Tours opened up in 1987. So I guess if anything, I'm more comfortable with them buying it than I would be with another movie studio. |

I am about to replace my worn out leafs with lower mileage leafs with a 1.5" AAL, and then replace my 1" thick spacer with some 5100s but keep using my factory Off Road coils.
So what I am looking for it some measurements of 5100s with stock Off Road coils from the center of your wheels to the fender. Also let me know what your 5100s are set at.
For the rear same thing, let me know what your setup is and what the distance between the center of your wheel to the fender.
I like my current set up and want to get close to it when I replace some of the worn parts, and the spacers. I realize that every truck is different but for the most part it should be close.
Additionally, I am wondering if I run my 5100s with factory UCAs and factory OR Coils can I run that at the max height (2.5) and still expect to get a good alignment?

Wisconsin native Skylar Grey gets 5 million YouTube views in one week
Pop singer Skylar Grey-born Holly Brook Hafermann in Mazomanie, Wisconsin-debuted the music video for her No Doubt-style new single "C'Mon Let Me Ride" one week ago today, and its already collected more than 5 million views on YouTube.
The cartoonish visual treatment has Grey hanging with low lifes in a backwoods trailer park, performing plastic surgery with a chainsaw and posing as a retro pin-up girl. But what's certainly drawing the most traffic has to be the appearance of Eminem, who sings a snippet of Queen's "Bicycle Race" with an assist from autotune in the style of Pee Wee Herman. »Read Full Blog Post
Lord Huron brings cathartic folk, minimal rocking to Pabst Theater

The effect was a fitting metaphor — not so much because Lord Huron is like a storm, although a brewing buzz did prompt a venue change from Turner Hall Ballroom to the larger Pabst (which neared capacity). »Read Full Article

Theft of Stradivarius violin was for money, not possession, experts say
Stealing a priceless 300-year-old Stradivarius violin isn't necessarily difficult, but selling it afterward would be, experts said Wednesday.
A Stradivarius violin on loan to Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra concertmaster Frank Almond was stolen Monday night. Almond, who colleagues say "is on the very cautious side" when it comes to security for the violin, was attacked with a stun gun and robbed of the instrument after a performance at Wisconsin Lutheran College. »Read Full Article(57)

Skull of Pseudopalatus mccauleyi | |
Scientific classification | |
Kingdom: | Animalia |
Phylum: | Chordata |
Class: | Saurischia |
Subclass: | Crurotarsi |
Order: | Phytosauria |
Synonyms | |
Parasuchia Huxley, 1875 |
Phytosaurs are an extinct group of large semi-aquatic Upper Triassic archosaurs.
Phytosaurs were long-snouted and heavily armoured, bearing a remarkable resemblance to modern crocodiles in size, appearance, and lifestyle.[1] This is an example of convergence or parallel evolution. The name 'phytosaur' means 'plant reptile': the first fossils of phytosaurs were mistakenly thought to belong to plant eaters. The sharp teeth in phytosaur jaws clearly show they were predators.
Although phytosaurs were not true crocodilians themselves, they were more closely related to the crocodilians than to other modern reptiles. Crocodiles did not become phytosaur-like until the Lower Jurassic. "Consensus generally places phytosaurs as basal crurotarsans, possibly the basal-most group".[2]
Phytosaurs had a nearly global distribution. Fossils have been recovered from Europe, North America, India, Morocco, Thailand, Brazil and Madagascar.

Recruitment of the serratus anterior as an accessory muscle of ventilation during graded exercise. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 17408533 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The role of the serratus anterior (SA) as an accessory muscle of ventilation and its physiologic significance under exercising conditions remains unclear. Recent investigations have utilized the measurement of SA as an analog for respiratory muscle oxygenation. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the action of the serratus anterior via surface electromyography (EMG) and near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during exercise while controlling for muscular effort not related to ventilation. Nine healthy volunteers (age = 24.4 +/- 0.5 years, VO2max = 3.416 +/- 0.35 l min(-1); VEpeak = 127.5 +/- 13.1 l min(-1); TVpeak = 2.844 +/- 0.226 l) completed a graded exercise test to volitional exhaustion on a cycle ergometer. The subjects' arms were folded and relaxed at the abdomen to minimize muscular effort resulting from scapular stabilization during pushing/forward flexion of the arms associated with cycle ergometry. VO2 and V were monitored breath-by-breath throughout exercise. EMG was recorded over the right SA, and a near infrared probe was placed over the left SA. No significant differences were observed throughout the graded exercise test for tissue oxygenation (StO2) (n = 6, F[1.532, 7.661] = 0.895, P > 0.05, eta2 = 0.15) or EMG (n = 9, F[1.594, 12.75] = 3.067, P > 0.05, eta2 = 0.27). Although the recruitment of the SA has been postulated to aid in ventilation in various postures and disease states, it is concluded that it shows little muscular effort in healthy subjects during upright cycling. Additional research is needed to conclude the pertinence of utilizing StO2 of the SA as an analog for respiratory muscle oxygenation. |

Turkey's economy is vulnerable
Tayyip Erdogan seems to like the concept of "choking" things. At the weekend, Turkey's prime minister sent riot police into an Istanbul park with tear gas and water cannons to clear out the protestors. A week earlier, he had threatened to "choke" an alleged "high-interest-rate lobby" of speculators who wanted to push interest rates up and suffocate the economy.
Erdogan's harsh actions against protestors and harsh words against investors could backfire economically. The country depends on foreign investors to fund its big current account deficit. If they turn tail in response to the mounting unrest, interest rates will indeed have to rise.
The protests which began two weeks ago over Tayyip Erdogan's alleged authoritarianism, triggered by the prime minister's insistence on bulldozing one of Istanbul's few public parks, initially alarmed investors. The stock market plunged, the lira fell and government bond yields spiked. Then, after the central bank intervened in the foreign exchange market and Erdogan offered concessions last week, investors calmed down.
But the weekend's use of riot police has stoked a conflict that seemed like it might be on the point of resolution.
The problem is not so much that speculators have an incentive to jack up interest rates. This would be perverse. Foreign investors own $140 billion of domestic bonds and equities, according to Standard Bank. They will lose money if interest rates rise.
The risk rather is that investors will pull out their money if they lose confidence. The U.S. Federal Reserve's indication that it may slow down its massive bond-purchasing programme has exacerbated that risk, as some of the money it has been pumping into U.S. bonds has seeped into emerging markets such as Turkey.
What's more, the Turkish miracle isn't quite as good as it seems. The economy grew only 2.6 percent last year, down from 8.5 percent the previous year – after the central bank had to hike interest rates because the economy was overheating and inflation reached 8.9 percent last year.
Turkey's biggest economic weakness is its current account deficit – a sign that consumption has been growing faster than is sustainable. The deficit did fall to 5.9 percent of GDP last year, after a 9.7 percent gap the previous year, as the economy slowed. But it is rising again this year. The April trade deficit was $10.3 billion, up from $6.6 billion last year.
Indeed, the selloff in Turkey's financial markets began a week or so before the police crackdown on protestors in Istanbul's Taksim Square on May 31. For example, two-year bond yields rose from 4.8 percent on May 17 to 6 percent at the end of the month; and the stock market fell 8 percent between May 22 and the end of the month.
Until now, international investors have been happy to fund the deficit. Not only were they attracted by the strong economic growth. They also liked Erdogan's pro-market approach, the political stability they thought he had brought and the prospect that Turkey's march towards a market democracy would be anchored by negotiations to join the European Union, says Timothy Ash, Standard Bank's head of emerging markets research.
The "interest-rate lobby" also liked the fact that the government's debt is only 35 percent of GDP and that banks have strong balance sheets, partly because they were seared by Turkey's financial crisis at the start of the millennium. Meanwhile, both Moody's and Fitch recently upgraded the country to investment grade.
The problem is that the unrest is casting doubt on some of these positive factors. For a start, Turkey no longer looks so stable politically. Then there's the fact that Erdogan's attack on speculators is sowing doubts about the depth of his commitment to markets. Furthermore, the crackdown on protestors may undermine Turkey's chances of joining the EU after Germany last week suggested delaying the next round of negotiations. What's more, the unrest could harm growth if tourists are deterred from visiting and domestic consumers become more cautious.
A particular weakness is that the current account deficit has been largely funded with hot money. The share accounted for by foreign direct investment – long-term money that can'Äôt easily run away – has been falling, according to Morgan Stanley. Meanwhile, the share made up by debt has been on the rise.
One measure of Turkey'Äôs vulnerability to a loss of confidence is that it has an 'Äúexternal financing requirement'Äù of $205 billion 'Äì roughly a quarter of GDP – over the next year, according to Standard Bank. This financing requirement is the sum of its current account deficit and the maturing debt it needs to repay or roll over. A more extreme measure of vulnerability would add the $140 billion of foreign held bonds and shares. If this tries to flee, the lira could plunge.
Against this, the central bank has $130 billion of reserves, which it dipped into last week when it helped to stabilise the foreign exchange market. This war chest, though, is low compared to Turkey's external financing needs. What's more, the net reserves – after excluding foreign exchange deposited by the banking system – are only $46 billion, according to Standard Bank.
So the central bank couldn't hold the line if the "interest-rate lobby" really did run for the exits. In that case, Turkey would have to raise interest rates, which would damage growth. And then the economic miracle, which Erdogan has presided over and which is one of the main sources of his popularity, might look like a conjuring trick. Instead of choking protestors, Turkey's prime minister should try to make a genuine peace with them.
