Embattled Malaysia Airlines, which is already spending a lot of money taking care of relatives of the 239 people aboard the ill-fated Flight 370, should brace for more expenses as its declaration that the passengers and crew are considered dead could lead to huge compensation claims.
So far, the air carrier had offered a partial payment of $5,000 per family, has been shouldering the hotel, food and other expenses of the relatives and pays for 2 dedicated caregivers each family to help the affected kin deal with the problem.

However, NBC reports that the Montreal Convention, a multilateral treaty, mandates payment of around $176,000 per person, bringing to at least $42 million the minimum compensation package.
The convention said claims could be made in one of five places where the carrier is domiciled, its main place of business, where the ticket was purchased, the destination of the jet or primary residence of the claimant.
That would mean, majority of the passengers would file claims in China or Malaysia where there are limited views of damages, said Floyd Wisner, an aviation crash lawyer.
However, the relatives could still file a lawsuit for higher damages. Insurance experts said these pay-outs could vary widely per claim, with passenger from the U.S. potentially getting millions more than the other Asian travelers.
Terry Rolfe, leader of aviation practice at Integro Insurance Brokers, explained to CNBC that compensation for loss of lives would vastly differ between American and non-U.S. passengers.
Claims brought in U.S. courts usually have significantly more value than in any other courts, and based on experience, U.S. citizens usually don't have problems securing compensation in U.S. courts. She added there are so many lawyers in the U.S. willing to handle such cases, explaining the high pay-outs.
Fortunately for Malaysian Airlines, which has been having financial difficulties even prior to Flight 370's disappearance, the ill-fated flight has only 3 Americans on board, while majority are Asians - 152 from China, 38 from Malaysia and 7 from Indonesia. There were also 6 Australians.
Share prices of Malaysian Airline System closed on Monday, down 4 per cent that could cut over $50 million from the air carrier's market value, compounding the 20 per cent drop in the company's stock price since news of the missing jet came out on March 8.
Ms Rolfie reckoned an American court could order Malaysian Airlines to pay the U.S. passengers between $8 million and $10 million, while the family of the Chinese passengers could get less than $1 million each.
Reuters reported that ahead of court claims, Allianz, the German insurance company that is the main reinsurer of the missing jet, had placed $110 million in an escrow account and has agreed to make hardship payments to relatives of the passengers.
Mr Wisner warned that varying pay-outs could result in an international backlash against the air carrier, particularly if their cases come out in media. He said the affected families could also opt to join in a class-action lawsuit against Malaysian Airlines.
He estimated the liability insurance of the air carrier could reach $1 billion, while Malaysian Airlines would likely pay between $500 million and $750 million as total compensation to the families.
Meanwhile, Malaysia would send another high-level delegation to Beijing in Tuesday night to meet with the families of the victims, said Malaysian Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
While Malaysian Airlines is also willing to shoulder the cost of flying the Chinese families to Australia, it would depend on the plane being found for Canberra to issue visas to the kin.

Connor Cook was benched at the end of the Notre Dame game, then led MSU to nine straight wins. 'When you're the quarterback, you can't let others define what you are or who you are,' Cook said. 'The only thing that mattered to me back then was that my coaches never lost confidence in me.' / Danny Moloshok/Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Beneath the self-assured exterior remains a glint of disbelief. Connor Cook sounds shocked that he's in this position.
"I honestly didn't see this coming," the Michigan State quarterback said.
Nobody did. Not after Mark Dantonio pulled a struggling, scattered Cook in the fourth quarter at Notre Dame in the Spartans' fourth game for an equally struggling, scattered Andrew Maxwell. Not after defensive end Shilique Calhoun led the Spartans in touchdowns during those offensively dark days early in the season.
But now Cook stands as the embodiment of advancement through adversity. As he walked into the media day news conference at the Rose Bowl's downtown headquarters Sunday, a mammoth action self-portrait greeted him.
"I've learned going through what I have this season, that you can't get too far ahead of yourself," Cook said. "As frustrating as it was when many had doubts about me and what I was capable of accomplishing, you have to be cautious about those same people patting you on the back now and telling you how great you are. You have to find that balance, and knowing that I can only focus on what I need to do to keep getting better and developing more confidence in myself."
Dantonio never lost faith in Cook, testing his resilience following the Notre Dame benching. He saw something everybody else missed. That faith was rewarded with Cook throwing 15 touchdown passes with only five interceptions in the nine-game winning streak that followed the Notre Dame loss.
Nobody saw it coming. Not even Cook.
Go back to the close of September. Of the three highest-profile quarterbacks in the state of Michigan then — the Lions' Matthew Stafford, Michigan's Devin Gardner and Cook — who would've thought it possible that Cook would approach the start of the new year with the most confidence?
"When you're the quarterback, you can't let others define what you are or who you are," Cook said. "The only thing that mattered to me back then was that my coaches never lost confidence in me, although it might have looked differently to others."
Win the Rose Bowl and Cook potentially becomes one of those iconic figures in Michigan State sports lore. The guy who nobody saw coming but nobody will forget.
"Connor stands as an example of what we've tried to accomplish here," Dantonio said. "We're all going to be challenged, disappointed and questioned. But how do you respond when those challenges arise? When you fall, how quickly do you stand back up? That's when an individual stands the tallest."
Dantonio stood tall suspending senior linebacker and team leader Max Bullough for the Rose Bowl for an unspecified violation of team rules. The program matters more than an individual. The message matters more than the moment.
Cook's unlikely ascension speaks to that standard as well. The shock of advancing further than anyone believed eventually dissipates, morphing into an expectation of success. That's how Michigan State has gotten to the point where it's defending the football honor of the state of Michigan in Pasadena.
Jim Schwartz took the bullet for another embarrassing Lions breakdown, losing his job. And the Lions now are looking for their Mark Dantonio.
Michigan has gotten worse each year under Brady Hoke. Not that a victory in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl would've lessened the sting of an awful season. But the lifeless way in which the Wolverines lost their ninth bowl game in the last 11 years — among other factors — should put Hoke in a win-big-or-go-home situation in 2014.
Michigan State, meanwhile, exhibits the institutional commitment necessary for establishing a winning culture. That helps considering Stanford is the best team MSU has faced all season, certainly much better than Ohio State.
The odds are against the Spartans stretching their unlikely winning streak to a season-ending 10 games.
But as Cook has proven, what you don't necessarily see ahead of you doesn't necessarily mean you still can't get there.

Other Name: CYP2D6 Inhibiting Drugs
Detailed Description:
Tamoxifen is a non-steroidal hormonal drug with weak estrogen agonist and potent estrogen antagonist actions. The liver CYP450 metabolic enzyme systems are responsible for metabolizing tamoxifen (the pro-drug form) into its active metabolites. A secondary tamoxifen metabolite known specifically as 4-hydroxy-N-desmethyl-tamoxifen or endoxifen is recognized as the principal potent metabolite responsible for tamoxifen suppression of estrogen-dependent cell proliferation, the stimulus for breast tumor growth. Biotransformation to endoxifen is through the CYPP450 2D6 pathway; therefore, the ability of tamoxifen to effectively suppress breast cancer is jeopardized in patients with certain CYP450 2D6 genetic variants and/or those receiving drug therapy that are known to alter CYP450 2D6 function (i.e., with CYP450 2D6 inhibitors).
Four phenotype expressions classified as ultrarapid, extensive, intermediate and poor metabolizers can be discerned from genotype testing for CYP450 2D6 activity. Patients with normal metabolic activity are known as extensive metabolizers given that they possess either two (genotype = wt/wt) or one (genotype = wt/vt) functioning CYP450 2D6 gene that converts a sufficient amount of tamoxifen in to its active form. Intermediate metabolizers have at least some or very low CYP450 2D6 activity and there does not appear to be uniform consensus on the impact of this phenotype on tamoxifen drug disposition. Poor metabolizers lack any functional CYP450 2D6 activity, and therefore, they do not metabolize tamoxifen enough to produce sufficient endoxifen activity. Approximately 10% of patients (7% of Caucasians and 1-3% of other ethnic groups) are poor metabolizers with a complete absence of CYP450 2D6 activity.
The genetic variants associated with diminished or absent CYP450 2D6 activity are found on CYP450 2D6 alleles *3, *4, *5, *6 and *10. The *3, *4, *5 and *6 alleles, when present in variant form (genotype = vt/vt), account for approximately 97% of nonfunctional CYP450 2D6 variants in caucasians. Of these mutations, those in CYP450 2D6 *4 are most significant for endoxifen.
Poor metabolizer phenotype has been associated with worse relapse-free breast cancer survival and increased risk (up to three times that of intermediate metabolizer status who have some CYP450 2D6 activity) for breast cancer recurrence.
Diagnostic technology now exists to aid in determining which tamoxifen patients are potentially receiving suboptimal treatment from existing alterations in one or more of the approximately 80 alleles of the gene coding for the CPYP450 2D6 enzyme. Recognition of this phenomenon provides physicians and their patients the opportunity for considering the use of other anti-estrogen drugs such as aromatase inhibitors in women whose CYP450 2D6 phenotype puts them at risk for poor response to tamoxifen therapy.
This study will use this diagnostic technology to determine a patient's phenotype provide additional clinical information and alternative drug therapies to the patient's physician.

Gone! 93 Explorer 4x4 4.0 5spd eb axles 4.10 gears $1800
GONE!!! I sold this once then ended up buying it back 2 weeks later I drive this to work and wheel it. I enjoy it but would like to build a bigger one. I dont really want to tear this one apart because it works pretty good. The engine is still strong and makes good oil pressure. It does not get hot either. It has a newer clutch on it. I just put a big bearing 9" with limited slip in last weekend. I put all new brakes on it too. The front axle is a Dana 44 with chromolly inner axle shafts and disk brakes. It is on 33s, for $1800 it will come with 4 good bfg a/t's. I would like to trade for 2 drivers drop front 60s, at least one needs to be out of an 80s or 90s truck with 4.10s.

"Who is that?" I asked the clerk.
"It's a new American band, Buffalo Springfield . . . but they've already broken up."
I bought all I could find of the Springfield, which wasn't much, and learned that the singer and composer of "Expecting to Fly" was a Canadian, Neil Young.
Enter Astell&Kern. At the beginning of 2013, this brand from iRiver, a Korean portable media company, introduced its AK100, a portable player costing a dollar short of $700 and capable of handling 24-bit files with sample rates of up to 192kHz.
The single-brand, self-contained music system has been popular at both ends of the price spectrum. A few hundred dollars at Macy's gets you a rack chock-full of offshore electronics, big speaker boxes, one plug (for the AC outlet), andbingo!instant music. Or, call your local Cello specialist and spend 60 times that amount, to roughly the same effect. Now Yamaha, a heavyweight in things from three-wheelers to VCRs, offers this imposing piece of satin-black furniture to the audio enthusiast willing to invest more than the usual amount of effort in order to hear his favorite tunes.
I found a more relaxed Tanner at the 2010 CES. This time, he'd borrowed an Auraliti L-1000 digital file server ($3000 at www.auraliti.com), a box with no front-panel controls, no display, no hard drive, no fans, and no CD drive. Instead of a Windows operating system, the L-1000 ran a stripped-down version of the Linux open-source operating system. Its simplicity of design solved the reliability problems Tanner had encountered the year before.
Then and there, Tanner decided to ask Auraliti to help Bryston create a simple digital music file player. The result is the BDP-1.
Overall, the HM-602 has a handsome, rather serious appearance: With its gold controls and its fine metallic finish, which at times seems a deep green and at others takes on a smoky charcoal, the HM-602, like its predecessor, exhibits an air of elegance and sophistication. And while the HM-801 proudly takes after Sony's famed WalkmanFang Bian once owned every available model of the now-discontinued portable cassette playerthe HM-602 much more closely resembles Apple's iPod Classic. On its front panel, below the 2" LCD screen, the HM-602 has a four-way control ring similar to the iPod's scroll wheel, and three sliding switches: Power, Hold (deactivates controls while music is playing), and DAP/USB.

Happy Monday, fellow scrappers! Melissa Kaiserman here, excited to serve as your hostess this week.
If I sound surprisingly chipper for a Monday, it's because it's truly my favorite day of the week. I see it as a chance for a new start and a fresh perspective.
Sometimes I think that's really all we need in our hobby
when faced with a lack of creativity or when we haven't made a page in so long
that our tools seem only vaguely familiar.
It's easy to think, If only I had
a room devoted to scrapping or If
only all my children were old enough to wipe their own noses and bottoms, then I would actually fill all those empty page protectors.
I'm going to spend some time this week describing the steps I took a couple of months ago, starting with
There was no way all of my supplies would fit, so the trick was to decide what I absolutely needed in there. Can I just tell you how freeing it was to be limited in that way? I only chose those supplies that I love and use often. As for the rest, I purged some of them, and others I put into storage where I can get to them easily if necessary. If I don't use them in the next few months? Off to the LSS yard sale they go.
to a scrap half-hutch.
Tomorrow I'll share specifics on how I organized my supplies so that they would be both easy to work with in this small space and pleasing to the eye. I'm all about the cuteness factor.

The cheapest way to get more amps would be to go to a junkyard and get a factory 136 amp from a 96-98 Chrysler product with a V8 and make sure it has the part # of: 56027913.
I did this with my 98 TJ and all I had to do was change the pulley, other than that it was a direct bolt in.

My experience with Lonnie & Mammoth Power Systems.
Been looking around for a high output alternator & found mention of this company. I gave Lonnie a call to discuss my needs. Found him to sound like he was very knowledgeable & helpful. On 9/19 or 9/20/05 I placed an order for a 200 amp CS130 alternator and I was told I'd have it in a week. On 10/10/05 I called Lonnie to see if there was a problem as I had not received my new alternator yet. I was told that it had shipped & been returned as undeliverable. Now even though I make it a point to speak slowly & clearly when providing my shipping info, somehow the zip code was written down wrong. Lonnie assured me it would go out immediately & be here in a week. As of today 10/19/05 I still do not have my new alternator. Throughout all of this I have called Lonnie several times on my dime because he does not have a toll free number or e-mail & his web-site is still down. He has never returned my call once. I wanted to help support a fellow 4 Wheeler & his business but now I'm wishing that I had ordered from someone else. ~JM~ P.S. Anybody have any recommendations on a good alternator company? |

Portable stereo battery help
Alright so I'm looking at building a portable stereo like this.
6x9 speakers portable boom box mp3 dock apple ipod music usb mini amplifier | eBay The problem I am having is figuring out what size battery to use since battery life is important to me. From what I have found most amps this size( 20+20 watts) use around 5ah does this sound right? So if u have a 20ah 12v battery then I would get about 4 hours use out of it? I dont see how the eBay item above can have 36 hours of use when It is so small and weighs only 7kg. Can someone clear this up or me |

Recall the concept of duty cycle.....An amp isn't going to be drawing a steady current..At regular listening levels the amp will be drawing a shockingly low current load, allowing a total Ah supply of seemingly tiny size.
Back in the mid-eighties I built such an elaborate "portable" "boombox" using A Pioneer cassette head, and a GM120(60WPC) amp...driving a pair of Minimus 7s. Heavy SOB. A very impressive device....dozens would stop to interrogate me & listen. Inside the wooden box housed a Motorcycle battery. According to the numbers it should have "lasted" half a dozen hours only.........It took about a week to draw it down. Also, there is a low-voltage limit to where the various devices will shut-down (10.2V?). Take your ammeter & check what values you get & I'd bet you'd be surprised. __________________________________________________ _____Rick....... |

alright i am just trying to get an idea of what battery life to expect. any ideas on if i used the following battery and amp?
Battery - eBay Australia: Buy new & used fashion, electronics & home d?r Amp - eBay Australia: Buy new & used fashion, electronics & home d?r connect to one 6 by 9 of 110 watts rms is that enough information to get an accurate idea of battery life assuming it will be at close to full volume? |

Given that the amp is a class A/B amp and not a class D amp. It will run about 2 hours on that battery at near full volume.

Dang I am hoping to get around 10 hours.
Would a 20+20 watt amp make a massive difference in terms of battery life? Also can any one confirm wether the bellow link is realistic in battery life? 6x9 speakers portable boom box mp3 dock apple ipod music usb mini amplifier | eBay It has 36 hours of battery and the guy selling them told me they only weigh 7kg, he wasn't keen on discussing what parts he had used. Thanks for your help |

Intel saves millions of dollars by predicting when shop floor tools will fail and repairing them before they can disrupt operations.
Security analyst Bruce Schneier's post on the apparent failure of the U.S. government to stop Syria's alleged use of chemical weapons holds lessons for Big Data and CIOs.
Good morning. Ford Motor today said it will start testing a new way of shaping sheet metal using a software program that guides a robotic arm to bend and shape metal according to specifications programmed into the robot's processor. The new technology can cut the cost of developing an automotive prototype part by 80% or more and reduce production time from two to six months to as little as three days. "Free form manufacturing is somewhat similar to 3-D printing, because it uses computer technology—software and algorithms—to make each part," Raj Sohmshetty, a technical expert at Ford Research and Advanced Engineering in Dearborn, Mich., tells CIO Journal. The technology was developed in conjunction with Boeing, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Department of Energy.
Ford says its new metal stamping process replaces custom, physical dies, or molds, with a software program and a robotic arm, cutting the cost of developing an automotive prototype part by 80% or more.
Thanks to cheaper equipment and better technology, 3-D printing is moving into the mainstream of business faster than many people realize, CIO Journal's Clint Boulton reports today in a story for the WSJ. Companies such as General Electric Co., Ford Motor Co. and Mattel Inc. are using 3-D printers in a range of ways that save money or improve efficiency.
Manufacturing technology, which includes robotics and 3D printing, could play a major role bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. But to grow the required computer-savvy workforce, a cultural and educational shift is required, writes Guest Columnist Tom Davenport.
Industrial companies are increasingly signing on to social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube and Google+ to market products to business customers.
The company's CIO and CMO form a powerful tandem, helping drive down costs and achieve CEO Jeff Immelt's vision.
The value of U.K. taxi manufacturer Manganese Bronze's shares fell by 40% after it announced on Tuesday that its balance sheets for the last two years were filled with errors. The problem: a supply chain management system it adopted in 2010, as it began moving production to China, miscalculated the company's inventory, leading Manganese to underestimate its losses by $6.1 million.
Lenovo is experiencing a dramatic improvement in ordering, manufacturing and logistics thanks to a significant uplift in its infrastructure.

How to repair a pulled forestay tang on a classic yacht...
As some of you folks recall, the Lady suffered a forestay tang failure while under sail to windward. Luckily she didn't lose the rig and was able to limp back to us under power for repairs. Here's a look at the damage:
Once we got her hauled and the rig down, the hard part came. How to repair her without ripping the boat apart? Well, we came up with a plan....
I cut the damaged section of the Stem out in order to insert a "Dutchman" if you will, into the existing Stem:
While taking her apart, we found a signature from her construction.
Once I had her cleaned up, including cutting out a section of the foredeck and the forepeak cap: We then made pieces to fit back to where they were, which was not an easy task, starting with the Stem insert:
Then we received the modified tang and discovered a couple of things. First, it was bent during the welding of the additional parts and the design was changed enough that it no longer fit.
Ok, now I get to play Blacksmith... I also had to cut in a recess to fit the new tang top, which created another issue. It left 1/2" gaps to each side of the tang because the back was wider than the front and you couldn't set it in vertically this led to making mahogany fillets to fill the gaps.
The deck was a two layer laminate of a 1/2" top layer over a 1/4" base, with the seams staggered four inches and the whole thing laid up in glass and epoxy.
This time she was thru bolted properly:
Anyway, here's the finished product some 50 Hrs. later.
Hopefully, the owners get to sail her a while before bringing her back to us...

I had a graduation party for my son. So I ordered the invitations. I am very pleased with the design and quality of these invitations. My sons colors were royal blue and gold so I wish I could have had a royal blue background or gold you had a yellow school bus color and a true blue and I wanted a royal blue grad cap and a gold tassel so I just picked what you had. But the quality of the product was great it wasn't cheap or flumsy and I also thought for the price that was a great deal. Everyone was asking where did I get those invitations from.

I think it's basically over except for who will be the third finalist besides Chelsea and Hines. Which does not make me happy.
Ew, the dreaded salsa pants! I hate those things! Least favorite costume ever!
So much for an unpredictable, even season :lol I don't mind Hines being in the finals, but not Mark. I am predicting a Chelsea/Hines final 2. Based on popularity, I think Kirstie will be the third finalist at the moment. Much like the last few seasons, seeing who comes in third is more suspenseful.
Romeo/Chelsie: Wow, a really good tango! Much better than last week's Samba bomb! I'm worried about his salsa later though...but I was pretty impressed with his tango!
DANCE CENTER TOMORROW NIGHT! YAY! The only filler that I enjoy and love!
9-9-9...now Bruno, if you gave Hines bad footwork a 10, then Romeo's much better footwork deserved a 10 as well.
Tequilla is their song :laugh! That is a good salsa song! It should work well..I hope his hips are in gear tonight!
Kenny Mayne is hilarious in Dance Center! I wait all season for that.:yay
Ralph looks like David Copperfield out there...lol
Maybe he can make Mark disappear.:yay:rofl

New York Facing Rising Thefts on Subways
NEW YORK (AP) - Users of iPods have become a hit among pickpockets and bandits on city subways.
Reports of robberies in the subway system are up about 20 percent through mid-March - a spike police officials blame on the ubiquitous portable music player, which can retail for about $100 to $500.
"The common denominator are iPods," Paul Browne, the police department's chief spokesman said Tuesday. "They're expensive, extremely popular and easy to conceal after they're stolen."
In some cases, the pickpockets have lifted the iPods from unsuspecting straphangers, police said. In others, thieves - after spotting victims wearing the telltale white headphones - have snatched the devices and fled out train doors.
Similar robberies have increased in and around schools, Browne said. Police have responded by deploying roving teams of uniformed officers in areas where the iPod bandits are most active, he said.
The trend, which was first reported in the Daily News, has helped drive the average number of subway felonies up to about 10 a day, from roughly nine a day in 2004.
Browne stressed that serious subway crimes were still down compared to 1995-2000, when the daily average fluctuated between 12 and 17.

FT-IR Study of the Electric Field Modulation of Liquid Crystalline 5CB
Applied Spectroscopy, Vol. 50, Issue 2, pp. 167-173 (1996)
Acrobat PDF (705 KB)
The dynamic IR spectra of electrically modulated liquid crystalline 5CB (4-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl) are determined to be due to the director reorientation. In the absence of dc fields, the IR response is mainly at two times the modulation frequency. IR signals at the modulation frequency may be induced by application of additional dc fields. These signals at the modulation frequency are caused by the creation of polar orientation due to the static field. No difference in dynamic response has been found between the rigid aromatic core and the pentyl chain of 5CB. Expressions are given for the in-phase and in-quadrature signals at the modulation frequency and at twice its value. It is shown that the frequency-domain dynamic IR experiment mainly probes the transition range between the uniform planar to the homeotropic regions in the sample, The different probing of the sample by time-domain experiments is briefly discussed.

Chomp Introduction
In A Nutshell
The Crays are not your average family. Instead of Fluffy the house cat, they have Alice the twelve-foot crocodile and Beulah the Burmese python. We have heard about alligators in the Florida Everglades hanging out on golf courses and eating runaway Pomeranians, but in this book, Alice the alligator is basically a puppy on steroids with a grill full of glittering chompers. She is so tame, in fact, that it would take an awful lot of heckling to make her get feisty. Worry not, though—in Carl Hiaasen's Chomp, reality TV star Derek Badger is just the sort of nincompoop that can pester even the most patient of creatures.
Wahoo and his dad Mickey, an expert animal wrangler, are broke and need to take a job staging some intense survivalist scenes with Alice and Beulah for Derek's show. There is just one problem: Derek doesn't know a thing about wild animals and is only interested in looking as rugged and awesome on camera as possible (by hiring others to make him look that way); he even has a Crocodile Hunter-inspired fake accent. Mickey and Wahoo are nervous about what might happen while Derek attempts to wrestle with the animals on camera. If he really makes Alice angry, will she bite him… or worse?
You have probably already heard of Carl Hiaasen's other books—Hoot, Flush, and Scat (well somebody has some crazy cute book covers… )—since they have been making the rounds in elementary and middle schools throughout the country for years. Hoot won the Newbury Honor award and was made into a movie, and Chomp—whichis the next book in this collection of environmental adventures, published in 2012—is just as fun and exciting as its predecessor.
Hiaasen's eco-adventure stories are, at their core, about respecting and protecting wildlife. Wahoo and his dad are both good stewards (that's fancy for caretakers) of Florida's lost, injured, and unwanted wild animals. What is Derek? He is a menace to all things natural.
Click here to really get yourself in the mood for this exciting eco-adventure.
Why Should I Care?
Chomp is all about respecting animals and nature, and being a good steward of the earth (a.k.a. living a green life). It's also about the importance of being real and not faking your way through life, of living—if you will—kind of like animals, who are as real as you can get.
Think about it this way: If you are a frog, there is no benefit in acting like a crocodile and moseying up to your crocodile neighbor and saying, "Hey, I'm starving! Know any good places to get a bite around here?"
The same is true for humans: If we pretend to be something we are not, we can get eaten alive.
The reality TV star Derek Badger does not have an ounce of integrity. He is a proud poser (someone who acts like someone they are not) through and through. As long as he makes a lot of money and has a great big fan club that thinks he is the ultimate outdoorsman, he doesn't care about much else. And because he doesn't care about being good at what he does (as long as he looks good), he gets pretty beat up in the wilderness of the Everglades when he can't take care of himself.
Not that you are going out adventuring in the wilderness, but think about it—if you don't read Chomp for class but pretend that you did, and your teacher calls on you to tell the class about the book, you will probably get into some big trouble if you start to babbling on about alligators who eat cheese instead of frogs and secret jungle princesses. Get the picture?
Chomp gives our brains plenty to chew on.

First Battle of St. Albans
May 22, 1455
The First Battle of St. Albans
The First Battle of St. Albans was fought on May 22, 1455. The battle traditionally marks the beginning of the Wars of the Roses. Richard, Duke of York along with Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick defeated the Lancastrians under the leadership of Edmund, Duke of Somerset who was killed.
The Lancastrian army of 2,000 troops arrived at St. Albans and began placing their troops along the Tonman Ditch and at Sopwell and Shropshire Lane. The Yorkist army of 3,000 camped in Keyfield to the east. After several hours of negotiations between the rival commanders, Richard, Duke of York, decided to attack.
The First Battle of St Albans was a victory for York and Warwick. York captured the King restoring himself to power. Somerset, Henry Percy, 2nd Earl of Northumberland and Lord De Clifford fell during the rout.

January 10, 2013 Confident Future Pisces Daily Horoscope
The hope you have about achieving your goals could make you feel optimistic today. Perhaps because you can visualize the positive outcomes of your hard work, or because you are able to see that no matter what happens in life, you will reach your destination, you may find it easier to put in the effort needed to get the results you want. Developing a winning attitude toward your life could give you the extra motivation and drive you need today. If you should notice any self-defeating thoughts arise, you might want to ask yourself what fear lies behind your thoughts. Facing your fears head-on can help you overcome them and give you the confidence you need to rise above your mental constraints. Eliminating these mental obstacles can, in turn, make it easier for you to manifest your dreams.

DJBooth Album Review
With the release of American Gangster Jay-Z is on a mission to prove he's still the best rapper alive. He succeeds. The album has the kind of intensity and craftsmanship we haven't seen from Jay in years, maybe ever. American Gangster isn't a soundtrack to the new film of the same name, Denzel Washington's portrayal of 70's drug kingpin Frank Lucas has simply inspired Jay in the same way watching Rocky makes you want to go hit a punching bag. Hova evidently sees a lot of himself in Lucas, he hustles hip-hop like Lucas hustled heroine, and American Gangster is a 70's soaked story of powerful black men and the crimes they committed to get to the top.
American Gangster starts with Pray, a cinematic flashback that recounts Jay's lost childhood innocence. The beat pulses with a deadly seriousness as Jay rhymes "everything I've seen made me everything I am/bad drug dealer or I victim I beg/what came first moving chickens or the egg?" If this album was a movie, Pray would be the creation of Hova, the birth of the best rapper/businessman hybrid hip-hop's ever seen. Moving on with the cinematic metaphor, the next scene would be Sweet, a track that has Jay swimming in the rewards of his success. As good as Jay's flow is throughout the album, and it's extraordinary, Sweet shows the production is equally clutch. Diddy's production team The Hitmen (LV, Sean C and Mario Winans) take soul and funk samples from the likes of Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield to create a cohesive musical thesis so 70's even I'm inspired to grow an afro. Listening to Sweet is like watching the original Shaft, only instead of Isaac Hayes we get intimidatingly powerful rhymes from Jay-Z.
Every high has its low and just like the real Frank Lucas (who went into the witness protection program after giving up info to the cops) Jay admits that fame and fortune has a dark side. During the gospel-organ driven track Success he isn't bragging when he says "I got watches I ain't seen in months, an apartment at the Trump I only slept in once," he's admitting that his life of luxury is ultimately pointless. Even guest feature Nas (can we stop mentioning the beef now?) agrees when he asks "why is life worth living, is it the hunt for the s*** you want?" How good is American Gangster as an album? Jay and Nas absolutely kill the flow and it isn't even the best track. For me that honor goes to Fallin', a track produced by No I.D. Jay-Z reflects on his past and concludes it's only a matter of time before he meets his downfall; it's the fate of any real hustler. The knock on Jay during Kingdom Come was that his lyrics were too commercially motivated, a problem he subtly addresses on Fallin' when he says, "the irony of selling drugs is sort of like using it/guess there's two sides to what substance abuse is." Is there really any question who's the greatest?
I could write a novel about American Gangster and it's implications for hip-hop, but space constraints force me to skim over some tracks. Roc Boys is the best party track Hov's released since Big Pimpin, none other than Rakim told me The Neptunes' produced track Blue Magic is a personal favorite, and the genius of Hello Brooklyn 2.0 featuring sung/rapped verses from Lil Wayne can only be realized with a fully-charged audio system. How good is this album? I'll put it this way; five years from now if someone looks through your album collection and notices American Gangster missing, they'll think you don't know anything about hip-hop. And if you're on DJBooth that can't be true, right?

NEWS BRIEFS Legislative forum to be held Jan. 3 Al Groh voted ACC coach of the year CLICK HERE FOR MORE NEWS BRIEFS
Headlines @ U.Va.
Washington work opens interns eyes
By Charlotte Crystal
Mathematical equations are part of the routine for engineering students. But last summer, nine U.Va. engineering students who served public policy internships on and around Capitol Hill learned about a new variable.
Such an internship program is common for political science majors, but unusual for engineering students, said Dean Richard Miksad, who came up with the idea three years ago. Our kids learn how to work within the political realities of the system.
While the engineering students and one student from Arts & Sciences did their share of answering telephones, overall they were given a striking amount of responsibility, said Kay Neeley, faculty coordinator for the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences Washington Internship Program.
Our interns got meaty assignments because of their technical background, said Neeley, associate professor with the Division of Technology, Culture and Communication. They did real jobs. One student prepared a report on anti-landmine technology that recommended which avenues of research the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy should pursue.
This past summer, U.Va. engineering students filled internships in three congressional offices and helped at the House Science Committees subcommittee for space and aeronautics, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and various other offices.
Prior to this program, I had always viewed myself as an engineer with a separate interest in government, said Ed Hallen, a systems engineering major who worked for the Information Technology Industry Council. After the program, I view the two disciplines as incredibly interrelated. I hope to use my technological experience to shape the public policy of the future.
Neeley was pleased with the mix of placements. At the end of the day, the kids had an opportunity to exchange views, compare notes and engage in lively, intellectual community.
And the students saw that their expertise and work ethics were valued, said Michael Gorman, program director and chair of the TCC division. Because of their technical and research skills, U.Va.s engineering students quickly moved into positions of prominence in their offices, he said.
Miksad launched the program with the help of James Turner, the Democratic counsel for the House Science Committee and a member of the deans advisory committee since 1996. Miksad realized there was a need for the internship program during his annual trips to Washington to visit legislators with deans from Virginias other engineering schools. He found it frustrating to talk to staff aides who were well-trained in political science but didnt understand the technological issues the deans wanted to discuss.
Our goal with this internship program is to raise the level of technological literacy in the national science policy-making process, Miksad said.
Turner organized the U.Va. internship program along the lines of a similar program he established for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology about five years ago.
The U.Va. and M.I.T. students shared living quarters and together attended talks and special events arranged for the program. Speakers ranged from NASA astronaut Susan Kilrain to William Wulf, president of the National Academy of Engineering.
Believing in the value of the program, the Virginia Engineering Foundation and the deans office this year committed $70,000 in funding needed to pay for the students living expenses plus a small stipend, and programming and administration costs.
Students signed up for an elective class beginning late last spring. Along with the work involved in the eight-week internship, students also kept a journal, wrote two papers and gave an oral presentation related to their policy work in the early fall. The program organizers believe the internships will have a lasting effect on the students lives. For some, it reshaped their views of their studies.
After reading numerous reports at the National Academy of Sciences, I realized how many interesting, computer-associated fields there are, said Korina Kalopsidiotou, a computer science major who worked with the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineerings Executive Office of the Division of Engineering and Physical Sciences. As a computer science major, I became interested in expanding my options through a minor in biology, which would let me enter the emerging field of bioinformatics.
Ryan Murphy, who worked in the science division of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, said his eyes were opened to new career possibilities.
As a systems engineering major, I thought I might work for the government as a consultant or through private sector contracts, but never imagined the possibility of working directly for the government, Murphy said. I am now more confident about finding a job after graduating.
For most of the students, in different ways, the summer internships in Washington were life-changing experiences.
My summer internship was one of the best things that ever happened to me, said Kalopsidiotou. My work and the program activities allowed me to see a completely different side of science and technology.

Classic Bracelet
By The Shop Lady
from Winnipeg, MB
I purchased the Blue Black set and am able to wear it with a classic black dress, a party dress, or a pair of jeans. Great styling on the freeform nuggets. I gave it a 4 out 5 because there were 2 rhinestones laying in the bottom of the storage pouch that comes with the bracelet. Rather than send it back I will have the stones glued in place. Hopefully the Kenneth Lane people can follow this up with their provider. I have already worn these and look forward to enjoying them for years to come.

Volleyball Downs Marymount
Frostburg State (7-14) began the evening with the 30-25 win in game one. The Bobcats took an early 8-5 lead and later held a 16-10 cushion before Marymount went on an 12-6 run to pull to even at 22. The match was tied three more times, the last at 25-25, before FSU notched the final five points to close out the victory.
Marymount (6-4) evened the match with a 30-26 victory in a back-and-forth second game. The Saints jumped out to a 9-4 lead before the Bobcats stormed back to take a 16-12 advantage. Marymount countered with a 10-3 spurt to open a 22-19 edge, but FSU regrouped and surged in front 24-23. The Saints then snapped a 26-26 deadlock with the last four winners.
Game three was another close contest that featured six ties, including the last at 19-19. FSU built a 26-22 advantage and watched as Marymount scored three straight to close to within a point. The Bobcats then closed the game out with four of the final five points for the 30-27 victory.
The Bobcats finished off the match with a 30-21 win in game four. FSU pulled away from a 9-9 tie behind an 8-3 run and later used a 6-1 spurt to stretch its advantage to 27-18. Senior Carly McDonald (Owings, Md./Northern) recorded a pair of kills to end the evening.
McDonald led the way with 18 kills followed by junior Amanda Frantz (Friendsville, Md./Northern Garrett (Garrett College)) with 14 and freshman Caryn Wright (Pikesville, Md./Western Tech) with 10. Junior Amanda Hernandez (Crofton, Md./Arundel) had 47 assists while McDonald had 14 digs.
