Comments about Tektro RL726 Cross Lever:
Installed two sets on my kids' road bikes. These provided a huge difference to my 12yo daughter in particular. She wasn't comfortable braking with the normal levers when going down hills - said she felt like she was going to go tip over. With these levers she is now perfectly comfortable on the bike and I had a hard time keeping up with her. Without these additional brake levers, I couldn't get my daughter to ride. My 9yo son likes his too, even though he doesn't have a problem using the standard levers.
Easy to install if you have decent mechanical skill. Adjustable reach is good for small hands. They seem pretty well made and durable, although time will tell on that.
Comments about Tektro RL726 Cross Lever:
I've had two sets of Tektro cross levers over the years and both have had the same problem: the silver pin that connects the lever to the clamp works its way loose and falls out. I've had my most recent set on my bike for just over a month and already the left-hand lever's pin has fallen out. You can replace it with a bolt, but you shouldn't need to. It's just shoddy manufacturing.
Comments about Tektro RL726 Cross Lever:
I had a pair of these added to my CX bike and don't know how I lived without them in the past. The ability to ride with your hands up top and still have access to the brakes is awesome when riding in traffic, or in a group.

Comments about Tektro RL726 Cross Lever:
I use it on a road bike that I use for commuting to school. I like it because in traffic it does not matter how I'm riding I always can have a hand on the brakes with this setup.

So if I get this straight, our secular media has decided that the BIG and TOP news right now is about a woman who, YEARS ago, used a racial slur towards a man who held a gun to her head?
Wow, no wonder so many of us don't know about so many (really important) things happening in our country these days (the trial of the abortion doctor, Obama's slam against Catholic schools, no media coverage for the March for Life, the 61 cases and over 200 plaintiffs against the unconstitutional HHS mandate, I could go on and on)
Now I remember why I don't have cable/regular t.v. and instead choose to listen to worthy news via Christian stations on my radio and look things up via the internet. Or...when I read about them via our CM community.
Paula Deen is a big multi-talented celebrity and her brother Bubba Hiers was just walking in her shadow, so why would the news media focus its attention on the less popular figure when Paula is the bigger fish. There again it's all about marketing. And his business is booming now. It was his poor workplace ethics that is at the root of Paula's circumstances, and his business wasn't hurt by it. Read about it on this link. www.tmz.com
Chef Aaron McCargo Jr, the chef who won Season 4 of "The Next Food Network Star" very recently spoke highly of Paula Deen. In a statement recently released on his Facebook page he wrote "Paula has always been very helpful and supportive throughout my career, and as her friend I'm saddened to see that she is going through a tough time right now."

Choose a lens for the best optical performance under current light conditions, or switch to a different hue to change your look instantly.

Two lens shapes are available, and you can even get them with Oakley technology that produces the best polarized lenses on the planet.

After over 20 years of campaigning against animal testing for cosmetics in Europe, today, 11th March 2013, will go down in history as the day the EU finally banned cruel cosmetics in Europe.
Today, the 7th Amendment to the Cosmetics Directive comes into force and finally bans animal testing from taking place anywhere in the world for cosmetics and toiletries sold in the European Union.
View our infographic to find out how we achieved this historic ban.
Yet over 80% of the world continues to allow animal tests for cosmetics, which is why the BUAV founded Cruelty Free International to campaign for a global ban.
We are delighted that The Body Shop is joining with Cruelty Free International to again host our global pledge in their stores worldwide, helping us to reach millions of new people across the world. The Body Shop's new brand activist Leona Lewis is today calling on her fans to sign the global pledge.

Executive Director of the March Field Air
Museum, in being named the 2015 Citizen
of the Year for the City of Moreno Valley.
MFAM home to new National Memorial
July 25, 2014
I am so proud that President Obama signed my legislation today to designate the Distinguished Flying Cross Memorial at Riverside's March Field Air Museum as a national memorial. This designation will give long-overdue recognition to the courageous military aviators in California and across America who have distinguished themselves by heroism in aerial flight.

What's New at the Museum
The second installment of the museum's timeline exhibits, the 1920s display, brings the visitor into a simulated wooden hangar maintenance area to view a number a period artifacts in an interactive setting. From a period pilot's logbook, a leather flight helmet and a MORSE biplane wing under repair, to a Curtiss OXX - 6 aircraft engine the display immerses each visitor into the world of 1920's March Field.
The museum has just completed a display highlighting one of our
most treasured artifacts, Space Shuttle Main Engine Nozzle Unit # 2029. During the operational period of NASA's STS program between 1981 and 2011, every Space Shuttle was equipped with three RS-25 main rocket engines; each engine had an individual exhaust nozzle. A veteran of five space flights, nozzle #2029 flew on three Endeavor and two Atlantis missions from 1994 through 1996 before being retired to the metallurgy lab where NASA conducted tests on the impact of the burning propellant on the nozzles components.

You can now design your neck conveniently online. Depending on your exact specifications, most custom designed items created through our Online Builder only take about 4 to 6 weeks for us to make! Add an extra 4 to 6 weeks if a finish is included. Having it your way is what "custom" is all about and our skilled craftsmen are second to none!
The Baritone Conversion Neck is a unique Warmoth innovation that allows you to easily change the scale length of your 25-1/2" Fender® scale guitar to the longer baritone scale of 28-5/8". These replacement necks require no modification to the guitar body and bolt directly on to most common 2-3/16" (56mm) neck pockets. Baritone Conversion necks are built using Warmoth Pro construction: double expanding truss rods and compound radius fingerboards. They are a very easy conversion and an inexpensive way to experience something new on your old Fender®.
The scale length of a guitar is actually the playable string length. Simply measuring from the playing side of the string nut to the break-over point of the string on the bridge will give you the scale. Usually though, we'd measure to the 12th fret (half scale) and double this number; strings actually intonate a little longer than the stated scale (has to do with action height and the distance the string is depressed when fretting, amongst other things).
Pro Construction necks are our premium neck offering, representing over 30 years of innovation and refinement. In terms of quality, convenience and long term serviceability there is no finer neck on the market. Features include:
Warmoth Pro necks use a double-expanding truss rod that is installed in a 3/8" deep, flat slot directly under the fingerboard. The rod consists of two long shafts which are welded together at the headstock end of the neck. At the other end a tube is welded to the top shaft. The bottom shaft passes through the tube and ends with a threaded adjustment nut that is accessible through an opening at the heel.
As the adjustment nut is tightened it draws the bottom shaft outward and pushes inward on the tube attached to the top shaft. This pressure forces the rod upwards in the middle and downwards at the ends. As the adjustment nut is loosened the neck relaxes back towards its neutral position.
The Pro rod floats freely within the neck and all the compression forces are exerted on the metal rod, not the neck. Only the backward motion of the rod is
transmitted into the neck to counteract the pull of the guitar strings. The force exerted by the tail end of the double rod is considerable. There must be a minimum 1/8" of wood below the rod end to prevent wood failure in this area. Thinning a neck beyond factory engineered dimensions is not recommended or covered under warranty.
Characteristics of the Warmoth Pro neck include:
Over twenty years ago Warmoth pioneered the concept of a conical playing surface. The idea was to keep the lower registers of
the fingerboard with a rounder feel, more comfortable for chording and rhythm playing but at the same time to flatten the high
registers for easier string bending. The compound radius accomplishes this with a continuously flattening radius beginning with
a 10 inch radius at the string nut to a 16 inch radius at the 22nd fret. This compound radius isn't something that feels readily
apparent to the playing hand in any noticeable way other than the fact that it is very comfortable to play on. With a professional
set-up, these necks play exceptionally well.
Truss Rod Cover & Screws included.
Just add the prices shown below to the ones in the table above to pick the actual piece of wood used for your fingerboard! Make sure to include the fingerboard number with your order.

MUNCIE, Ind. – The Miami University softball team picked up an important split against Ball State on Sunday. The RedHawks sent the Cardinals to their first Mid-American Conference loss in the opener with a 3-1 victory. BSU came back with a 6-0 win in the nightcap. Miami is now 10-4 in the MAC, 17-24 overall. The Cardinals are 13-1 in the MAC, 29-13 overall.
Ball State struck for one run on two hits off starter Jenna Modic in the bottom of the first of the opener. Despite entering the game statistically as the best hitting team in the MAC, it would be the only hits the Cardinals would record off Modic and reliever Paige Myers. Myers came in the bottom of the fourth after Modic walked a pair and held Ball State hitless for 3.2 innings to earn the win. She struck out four.
The Miami offense finally broke through in the top of the fifth. With one out Tiyona Marshall singled to the shortstop. Hailey Reed singled to center field to move Marshall up to second base. After the second out was recorded, Modic was able to leg out an infield single that was hit off the pitcher's lege because no one was covering first. On a heads up play, the speedy Marshall used the confusion to come home all the way from second base and tie the score. Shanyn McIntyre followed with a single down the left field line that scored Reed and gave the 'Hawks a 2-1 lead.
Miami got an insurance run in the top of the seventh when Modic singled to center field to score Marshall. Myers then pitched around an error to retire the Cardinals in the bottom of the frame and secure the victory for the RedHawks.
Marshall finished the game 3-for-4 with two runs scored. Reed was 3-for-3 with one run scored. Modic was 2-for-3 with one RBI.
Ball State got its offense going in the second game with two runs in the first inning, three in the fourth and one in the fifth to take a 6-0 victory. One positive for Miami in the nightcap was the continued success of Marshall. She went 2-for-3 and finished the doubleheader with five hits.
Miami returns to action on Friday when it travels to Eastern Michigan for a doubleheader that begins at 1 p.m.

Comments about Brooks Team Pro:
Hands down, my Brooks was worth every penny, the fact the it was a present notwithstanding. I ride my bicycle almost every day on an up and down, rough and smooth terrain commute, and the Team Pro has only gotten more comfortable. I appreciate it for its versatility, being narrow and long enough to use aggressively, but wide enough to be sat on for the entirety of my 12.5 mile commute (bear in mind that the shape of your sit bones may vary your mileage). Since it also comes with a rain cover, a pair of fenders is all it takes to ride in comfort in any weather.
The saddle is definitely a trip if you've never sat on a leather one before; the surface is very slick, and depending on what you're wearing, you may have trouble settling into one spot. That same slickness, however, also works to your advantage, keeping your thighs from chafing on the saddle skirt. The leather also breathes, which is a double edged sword, depending on the time of the year. In the cold conditions, it is worth next to nothing for insulation. The plus side is that in warmer weather, it feels almost non-existent (in the best way possible).
Conditioning the leather does not approach the level of a chore (and you really should buy the Proofide that Brooks puts out...the pleasant smell is just a bonus). Every couple of weeks to start, and then months can pass before touching the proofide again. Since I commute daily, I can't speak for the saddle taking forever to break in. It was instantly more comfortable, and has only gotten more so.
A Brooks saddle is an expensive investment, but with care, will last far longer than a plastic and foam saddle, wind up being more comfortable, and have a unique aesthetic while doing it. Well worth the price and break in period.

|Hershey Bell, M.D., M.S., Dean of the LECOM School of Pharmacy, congratulates Kelly Shaw on her induction into the Rho Chi Society. Looking on is Kim Burns, R.Ph., J.D., Rho Chi Faculty Adviser.
ERIE, Pa — The Gamma Tau Chapter of the Rho Chi Society inducted 27 students from the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine School of Pharmacy into its membership during a ceremony on Saturday, Feb. 19, 2011, at the Bayfront Convention Center in Erie, Pa. LECOM School of Pharmacy Dean Hershey Bell, M.D., M.S., was also initiated into the honor society.
Andrew Grimone, Pharm.D., Clinical Pharmacy Manager at Saint Vincent Health System in Erie, gave the keynote address. He inspired the new inductees to become leaders in the pharmacy profession. Dr. Grimone, a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh School of Pharmacy, told the student pharmacists that their patients will come to them for trust and guidance.
|LECOM's Rho Chi chapter inducted 27 students and School of Pharmacy Dean Hershey Bell, M.D., M.S., into its ranks. Standing (L-R): Janene Madras, Pharm.D., Rho Chi Advisor, Kim Burns, R.Ph., J.D., Rho Chi Adviser, Dr. Bell, Andrew Grimone, Pharm.D., keynote speaker, Cory Ulisse, Rho Chi Historian, Vanessa Lewis, Rho Chi Vice President, and Lauren Hajdu, Rho Chi Treasurer.
"For many, many years the pharmacy profession has been recognized as one of the most trusted professions," Dr. Grimone said. "People look to us because we give them advice and we have their lives in our hands. I think it's important to entrust that message upon all of the students that will go out and practice pharmacy."
|Hsin Li, incoming Rho Chi President presented a gift basket to Andrew Grimone, Pharm.D., for giving the keynote speech at LECOM's Rho Chi ceremony.
Hsin Li, one of the inductees and incoming Rho Chi President, said becoming a member of Rho Chi was one of the goals he set for himself when he came to pharmacy school. "I wanted to excel academically," Li said. "I wanted to really push myself to achieve the highest echelon of pharmacy. I'm glad that I accomplished that."
Rho Chi recognizes individual academic achievement and encourages high standards of leadership, professionalism, conduct and character in all of its members. Dr. Grimone said the inductees should be proud of their accomplishment. "These students are the ones that have proven by their academics and other requirements that they are truly the elite and at the top of their class," said Dr. Grimone.
This year's inductees from the Class of 2011 are: Skyler DeBlasio, Rachel McCoy, Jennifer Shaffer, Chi Le, Katie Krise and Kelly Shaw. The Class of 2012 initiates are Harry Aldrich, Milos Blagojevic, Agata Boggs, Zachary Bouchat-Friedman, Ling Chen, Charles Clendenin, Megan Cody, Christopher Cotton, Ashley Dawson, Kaitlyn Fagan, Matthew Flint, Roy Fornwalt II, Jessica Ledwich, Hsin Li, Joshua Miller, Donna Mott, Kim Pham, Raey Taye, Karey Tyler, Brandon Wilds, and Riley Williams II.

A great quality Christmas Card!
Magnet Street always delivers when it comes to quality cards. With personalization, they always spend time with you to make sure they are perfect and to your liking. I have always had a great experience with them and completely recommend them to everyone :)
Amazing Outcome
I needed my order expedited due to some personal issues. I included a note in the online order I submitted and was hoping for the best. I was called later that same day by a MagnetCard rep. The rep assured me that they were going try and meet my needs. When I arrived home today a package was at my door and the cards were iniside, 3 days earlier than I expected. To say the least, they met my needs and exceeded the goal they set forth. I cannot thank you enough MagnetCard. You have a customer for life. Oh, and to top it off the cards were perfect!
Quality service, product and pricing
Having ordered from Magnetstreet, previously, I knew that I would be pleased with the cards this year. I was unaware that the quallity of the cardstock and envelopes was even better than before. Already, I have heard from friends and family with compliments on how this card stands out when compared with other customized ones. Thank you for continuing to offer good customer service, good products and good pricing.

Deidara is a former ninja of Iwagakure. He tends to end his sentences with an audible grunt that is usually translated as "hm", "yeah", or "un".He acted as a terrorist bomber for hire before being forced to join Akatsuki by Itachi Uchiha. Upon joining Akatsuki he is partnered with Sasori, who Deidara treats as his master due to his artistic expertise. Sasori is replaced by Tobi after his death, and Deidara assumes the master-position as Sasori had before him; although he still abuses Tobi when annoyed by him, he becomes more like Tobi's teacher, and adopts a genuine care for his well-being.

New Orleans Hornets General Manager
The key to KILLING the hornets is to pressure Vasquez when he has the ball. Everyone is doing it (westbrook, iguadala etc...)and will continue until he proves he can dribble with his right hand. Expect CP3 & Eric Bledsoe to abuse this kid all night long. Blow out on the making...
We are just the medicine the Clips need right now. They're on a 3 game losing streak so I suspect they'll make quick work of us tonight.
One alley oop to Griffen and ill have to visit the ER.
Not watching.
I'll probably put it on but I doubt I pay much attention to it.
Been trying to talk myself into some hope in my spare time today. No luck so far. However, maybe an absurd amount of luck is the key for the Bees tonight. They appear overmatched at every position tonight. Hopefully some threes can fall for the Hornets and a bunch rim out for LA. Muck the game up and don't allow them to get comfortable. I expect the Hornets to play much harder than last night so we will see I guess
Man I gotta say though, people are really off on this "no hustle" thing.
We have to stop playing scared. I miss the first 3 games where we came out feisty!
Coming off a heartbreaking loss in PHX they were kind of ripe for that kind of game in Denver. After getting completely outplayed and outhustled, combined with some guys like Aminu seeing few minutes last night I just hope they show some pride and play with more energy. And maybe returning players still have a little fire in their bellies from the physical games against LA last year they might be a little more fired up. Idk I'm grasping at straws here. Just hope that Monty and the boys have a better showing than the embarrassing one last night
It's so unanimous that we'll lose...we win by a Austin Rivers 3 at the buzzer, baby!
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
I will be there tonight.....bought the tickets weeks ago when we were 3-2 and Davis was ballin....oh well, gotta cheer them on anyway!
"I am sorry if what I say hurts your feelings....Wait, no I'm not!"

A LAKE District boat is to join a thousand-strong fleet sailing in the Queen's Diamond Jubilee procession on the Thames this summer.
One of Windermere's well-worn wooden tourist vessels has been selected by Royal organisers to take part in the event – the largest flotilla in modern times.
More than two million people are expected to watch from the embankments of the Thames as the seven-mile procession steers through London waters.
Cumbria's own aptly-named participant, The Queen of the Lake, owned by Windermere Lake Cruises, is currently being repainted and refurbished for the spectacular, on Sunday, June 3.
The flotilla will be led by Her Majesty the Queen and other members of the Royal family aboard a barge called The Spirit of Chartwell.
It will sail under 14 bridges, alongside groups of narrow boats, historic vessels including World War Two ships from the Dunkirk beaches and replica Tudor ships.
Managing director of Windermere Lake Cruises Nigel Wilkinson said: "We are delighted Cumbria will be represented at such a high-profile, patriotic event which will inevitably strike a cord with the whole country as we celebrate her Majesty the Queen and her 60-year reign together.
"We hope to be able to involve the wider Cumbria community in this project and to give some younger Cumbrians a day out that they will remember for the rest of their lives."
Boat building manager Alex Williamson and operations manager Russell Bowden will lead the team south for the patriotic event.
Windermere skipper Ron Walker will captain the boat on the day itself.
The 15-metre tourist boat, built in 1949, will be hoisted out of the water at Ambleside and driven almost 300 miles by lorry before it is launched on the Thames.
It is a reversal of the ship's initial northern voyage, 60 years ago, when she was transported to Windermere from the Thames-side town of Molsey, where she was built.
It is not the first time the Queen of the Lake has been given a Royal mark of approval. In March 2010 it carried the Prince of Wales when he visited the Lake District.
A SNOW leopard which featured in a movie starring Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman is the latest addition to a South Lakeland zoo.
Young male Pavan, one of two leopards who played the part of Stelamaria in The Golden Compass, will be housed in a walk-through enclosure at Lakeland Wildlife Oasis at Hale, near Milnthorpe.
Staff have created a homely feel for their new feline friend with the enclosure designed to look like a Himalayan village with plenty of rocks for him to climb and snooze on.
An acrylic tunnel running through the enclosure will allow visitors to see Pavan in his own habitat in what is thought to be the UK's first walk-through big cat exhibit.
Assistant manager of Lakeland Wildlife Oasis, Caroline Howard, said: "We're really excited about Pavan's arrival - he's a real celebrity cat! His new home is amazing. You can walk right through his territory while he ranges around you - even above your head!"
Pavan has arrived from UK charity the Cat Survival Trust which helps conserve endangered cats.
Once he has settled in his new environment, zoo staff hope to form a breeding pair by adding a female snow leopard to Pavan's enclosure.It is not known how many snow leopards are left in the wild but they are now classed as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis is joining the captive breeding programme which is run by the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

The latest from the BUAV's Chief Executive...
Thank you for your support during 2012. It has been an incredibly busy year for the BUAV and I am so proud of what we have achieved for the animals, but of course we could not have done this without the generosity of our supporters.
During 2012, we have continued to be the voice for animals in laboratories and lead the international campaign to end animal experiments, gaining important national and international media coverage for our work as well as the support of politicians and celebrities.
In March, with the support of our ambassador Ricky Gervais, we launched Cruelty Free International, the first global organisation dedicated to ending product testing on animals worldwide. It has truly been an inspirational time for myself and my team and, with the support of our partner organisations, we have placed the issue of cosmetics testing on the global agenda. In countries around the world we have held key meetings with government and industry representatives to take forward our global goal to end the use of animals for cosmetics testing once and for all.
In the EU, there has been encouraging news for our No Cruel Cosmetics campaign to end the import and sale of cosmetics tested on animals. The BUAV, along with our partners in the ECEAE, has campaigned for 20 years to achieve an EU free of animal tested cosmetics. We are now closer to achieving this than ever before.
Our Investigations Team has continued to play a vital role in exposing the hidden cruelty and suffering that the research industry would prefer was kept hidden from view. The images of slaughtered monkeys piled in bins like garbage on the holiday island of Mauritius caused an international outcry. Here in the UK, our Science Team made headline news after uncovering shocking kitten sight deprivation research at Cardiff University. We also remain leaders in providing expert opinion at conferences and stakeholder meetings working to end animal experiments and to promote non-animal alternatives.
The BUAV has continued to enjoy high profile media coverage as the leading voice for animals suffering in laboratories, ensuring this important issue is kept in the public eye. We have appeared in international and national newspapers, featured on leading radio and television shows and appeared on websites across the globe. In the UK, we have featured in the Daily Mail, The Sunday Times, the Guardian, the Sunday Mirror, Daily Express and The Daily Telegraph.
Other achievements of which I am especially proud include our 2009 investigation into the animal testing of Dysport (a type of botox) at Wickham Laboratories and subsequent Judicial Review proceedings, which this year forced the Government to ensure that animal testing for cosmetics botox will end. We also persuaded the Home Office to amend legislation that could have become law in the UK, which would have allowed stray animals, including cats and dogs, to be used in experiments.
This holiday season please do your bit for the animals and look for the Leaping Bunny when buying presents for family and friends. . Nearly 500 companies are now certified under the Leaping Bunny scheme, which guarantees products and their ingredients are free from animal testing, providing a huge selection of festive gifts for both men and women. For a full list of certified companies please visit www.gocrueltyfree.org
2013 promises to be an ever busier time for us! We have an exciting start to the New Year with the partnership of our sister organisation, Cruelty Free International, and luxury hair care brand Paul Mitchell® to promote the cruelty-free message. Look out for Paul Mitchell® high profile adverts, exclusive products and special packaging in thousands of hair salons across the UK and Europe, all promoting Cruelty Free International.
As the year comes to an end, a heartfelt thank you from everyone here at the BUAV for your support during 2012. We could not have achieved as much as we have for the animals without the kindness and generosity of you, our supporters. Please continue to support us during 2013.
I wish you a peaceful holiday and a very happy New Year!
Until next time…….

DURHAM — Even if the final product wasn't completely fulfilling for point guard Quinn Cook, Duke did enough to hold off North Carolina State and finish what it so sublimely started.
"We have that tendency when we're up, we kind of let go of the game. We've got to get better at that," Cook said, after the fourth-ranked Blue Devils' 98-85 victory in Atlantic Coast Conference basketball Thursday night at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Mason Plumlee delivered another power-packed performance, scoring 30 points and grabbing nine rebounds, Seth Curry stroked in 26 points and Cook added 21 points for Duke (20-2 overall, 7-2 ACC), which maintained its spot two games behind first-place Miami in the league standings.
That the Wolfpack (16-7, 5-5) — again playing without point guard Lorenzo Brown (ankle injury) and sinking into foul trouble that ensnared Richard Howell and C.J. Leslie by the end — was able to slice Duke's 22-point, second-half lead to eight in the last 70 seconds struck an unsatisfactory chord with Cook.
"We just weren't sharp," he said. "But we made some key stops and got some key rebounds."
There was no denying, however, the overwhelming magnificence of the Blue Devils' first half.
Duke bolted ahead 25-6 during the opening eight minutes, a high-energy start that rocked the Wolfpack while simultaneously seeming to threaten the stability of this venerable building.
Four 3-pointers (two apiece from Rasheed Sulaimon and Cook) and three dunks by Plumlee provided the fuel, as did N.C. State's field goal drought of nearly 5½ minutes, a period in which Duke launched a 14-1 run.
And there also was the memory of what transpired 26 days prior in Raleigh, when these rivals' first meeting of the season became the Wolfpack's court-storming conquest of the nation's then-No. 1 team.
"That's motivation before the game," Curry said. "Coach didn't have to say anything. Nobody had to say anything to our team. We had a lot of motivation coming out."
Duke buried 10 of 17 launches from 3-point range in the first half — Curry and Cook hit eight of them — and led 58-37 at intermission to register its highest scoring half of the season.
"That was vintage Duke," Cook said.
"I don't know if we can play any harder or better in the first half," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said.
N.C. State coach Mark Gottfried seemed to sense danger from the beginning. He called a timeout 84 seconds into the game with Duke ahead 8-2, clapping his hands and shouting "let's play!" as his team approached the bench to huddle.
Later, Curry supplied a burst of two 3s and 10 points during the last 2:08 of the first half.
"We knew in the half court we could stop them," Curry said. "As long as they didn't score in transition, we could do a good job. That translated to open 3s and fastbreak points for us. Whenever we're making shots, we're tough to beat."
That eye-popping efficiency — the Blue Devils shot 61.3 percent from the field and committed only two turnovers in the first half — dipped back to reality after halftime.
Howell (23 points), Leslie (16 points) and Scott Wood (four 3s, 14 points) paced five N.C. State players in double digits.
Howell scored 15 points in the second half, his mid-range jumpers at least hinting at the possibility that maybe the Wolfpack could stage a remarkable rally to its first victory in Cameron Indoor Stadium since 1995.
N.C. State connected on 12 of its first 14 shots after halftime and went on to finish at 65.5 percent from the field in the second half — a direct contrast to its 2-for-15 clip from the field that started the game.
Howell's baseline jumper pulled N.C. State within 84-75 with 4½ minutes remaining, but less than a minute later, he fouled out after clipping Plumlee with a sweeping elbow across the nose as he turned to face up against the Duke power forward and work a post move.
Duke's lead never fell below nine until Scott Wood drilled a 3 to make it 93-85 with 1:08 left. That was as close as the Wolfpack crept.
But there still were some hair-pulling moments for the fired-up home crowd, including three backcourt turnovers by the Blue Devils during the final two minutes.
After Tyler Thornton traveled in one such instance, N.C. State had a chance to trim Duke's 91-82 lead. Plumlee erased that with perhaps the defensive play of the night.
Anticipating a spin move from an attacking Leslie, Plumlee backed off a bit in the post, briefly stumbled, recovered and rejected a driving attempt by the bouncy Wolfpack forward.
"There was a similar play at their place when we were down three or something and he had that same move and converted it," Plumlee said, "and I thought that kind of put the game away (on Jan. 12). I was happy to get a stop."
Plumlee, a senior, connected on 9 of 11 shots from the field, 12 of 16 free throws and finished two points shy of matching the career high he set in last week's victory at Wake Forest.
Eighteen of Curry's points came in the first half. Duke missed all seven of its 3-point tries in the second half.
-- TIP-INS …:N.C. State's previous four ACC losses were by a total of seven points. … Duke went 32-for-41 from the foul line while the Wolfpack went 11-for-19. Twenty-eight of Duke's free throws came in the second half. … N.C. State freshman point guard Tyler Lewis had 13 points, six assists, no turnovers and logged 39 minutes of playing time in the first start of his college career. … Wood played through a groin injury he suffered in the last five minutes of the first half. … Duke's frontline, thinner without Ryan Kelly (foot injury), also was missing reserve forward Josh Hairston (infected arm) on Thursday night.

Strengths: tacky, sticky, high volume, tough enough for rock gardens and I am 200ibs - not one of you whimpy 16yr old sized twikers.
Weaknesses: wear out fast as is expected but still a valid drawback to tacky tires
Bottom Line:
I use the super tacky and as anyone with a brain expects this wears out fast. Soft rubber + lots of sandstone = new tires often; I don't care who you are. Now they run like worn out tred and I'm back to e-bay trying to find a deal cause I won't pay MSRP every 3-6 months.
4 chilis on value cause You need 2-3 pair/yr at $60/pop.

The first widely publicized observance of a Memorial Day-type observance after the Civil War was in Charleston, South Carolina, on May 1, 1865.
During the war, Union soldiers who were prisoners of war had been held at the Charleston Race Course; at least 257 Union prisoners died there and were hastily buried in unmarked graves.
Together with teachers and missionaries, black residents of Charleston organized a May Day ceremony in 1865, which was covered by the New York Tribune and other national papers.
The freedmen cleaned up and landscaped the burial ground, building an enclosure and an arch labeled, "Martyrs of the Race Course."
Nearly ten thousand people, mostly freedmen, gathered on May 1 to commemorate the war dead. Involved were about 3,000 school children newly enrolled in freedmen's schools, mutual aid societies, Union troops, black ministers, and white northern missionaries. Most brought flowers to lay on the burial field.
Today the site is used as Hampton Park. Years later, the celebration would come to be called the "First Decoration Day" in the North. David W. Blight described the day:
"This was the first Memorial Day. African Americans invented Memorial Day in Charleston, South Carolina. What you have there is black Americans recently freed from slavery announcing to the world with their flowers, their feet, and their songs what the war had been about. What they basically were creating was the Independence Day of a Second American Revolution."

Why was he resigned?
Wow... sounds like someone missed a diagnosis big time w/ his quad (or maybe it's just me and the no medical knowledge I have)Jennifer Hale@JenHale504
#Hornets Eric Gordon rehabbing quad as much as knee. Quad atrophied to 10% strength. Now 65%. If pace continues, return possible end of Dec.
Jennifer Hale@JenHale504
#Hornets Eric Gordon's rehab schedule: 8:30 am - 3:00 daily as therapists build up quad to take pressure of knee. Gordon: Pain is subsiding.
10% strength. Did he contract aids during the offseason. This is ridiculous.
Don't you just love random percentages on health?
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
everything is connected...chronic injuries often are caused compensating for something in a different muscle group.
in other words, there might be nothing wrong with the quad but strenthing it will prevent reinjury in the knee.

I imagine they meant he lost 10% total strength and has regained 65% of the missing strength back.
I'm not even watching this crappy game tonight. I've had enough non-sense to last me until February.
I think they are talking about joint strength. This is not a misdiagnosis.
See the report here:
From last night, for those just catching up . . .

"Aime la vérité, mais pardonne à l'erreur." - François-Marie Arouet (Voltaire)
http://orthopedics.about.com/od/phys.../kneerehab.htmExercising Muscles that Surround The Knee:
The muscles surrounding the knee include the quadriceps, hamstring, and calf muscles. The focus of most knee rehabilitation is on these muscles. When injuries occur, often these muscles become weaker and less supportive of the knee.
Exercises for the muscles that surround the knee include quadriceps strengthening exercises, hamstring strengthening exercises, and calf strengthening exercises.
This is pretty standard. Not sure why they're just doing this and they didn't know what was wrong at training camp? That's part of the occupational and physical rehab you receive after a surgery.
"I don't know if people know I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"
So the quad declined to 10% and it's now at 65%?
That is the interpretation that seems appropriate.
End of December means middle of January at earliest. Were told 4-6 weeks; will be more like 10-12. Standard
Good to see he's making progress. At this point, I'm less worried about time-frame. All I want to see is consistent progress from his rehab.
As someone who's had atrophy after an an injury and major surgery, whoever said that pee'd in the wind and told ya'll it's raining.
There's pretty much no way it atrophied to 10%. I've also had an injury where I couldn't walk for two weeks and my leg muscles were certainly weaker but nowhere near down to 10% of their original strength. Has Gordon been in a wheel chair for the last 6 months?
I wouldn't think of the 10% as some quantitative measure. It's not like his squats went from repping 400 to repping 40.
In encourage those interested to READ UP rather than sit around and guess while remaining ignorant of the facts.
If it's important, learn. If not, sit back and let the grown ups talk.
This guy on his forum said he had a 6 inch thigh circumference difference after his knee surgery.

I can agree with that. We also need to have Davis or Smith in at all times in order because Lopez and Anderson aren't mobile enough to threaten as shot blockers when they need to leave their man to challenge a shot in the paint.
My only quibble about Lopez from last night (when it comes to playing his role) is that he tends to overly focus on his assignment and loses awareness on what is going on around him. This caused him to miss several opportunities for tipped passes, steals, and blocks around the rim that he was actually in good position for if he was paying attention to something other than his man.

Areal Typology of glottalization in the languages of the Caucasus and Transcaucasus
The project focuses sound inventories containing sounds with a glottalic airstream mechanism, specifically in the languages of the Caucasus (currently included: Tsez, Bezhta, Ingush, Chechen, Dargwa, Khwarshi, Avar, Karata, Lak, Kumyk, Georgian, Svan, Kabardian, Circassian) and Transcaucasus (e.g. Kurdish, Armenian, Azerbaidjani) with the aim to explore to nature of transitional expressions of features [Sven Grawunder, Don Stilo (MPI EvA Leipzig), Madzhid Khalilov (AcadSc Makhachkala, Daghestan), Adrian Simpson (U Jena)]
Labio-velar stops in Yoruba
Yoruba is a major language of Nigeria and uses double-articulated stop sounds (gb, kp) that are wide spread also among its neighbors. The project aims at fine grained details by means of articulatory (high-speed video, ultra-sound, electro-glottographic), aerodynamic, acoustic and perceptual data in order to understand the particular nature of these sounds and how they are involved in sound change. [Sven Grawunder, Leonardo Lancia, Daniel Voigt]
Pharyngealization in German dialects (Swabian, Thuringian and Saxonian)
Usually such phonetic descriptions like ATR (Advanced Tongue Root) and pharyngealization are associated with languages in Africa (e.g. Aka, Oko, Ewe) or semitic languages. But a closer look at the so called "dark" vowels in some German dialects reveals the universal nature of the underlying articulation strategies ongoing ultrasound data collection, subjects needed! (Sven Grawunder)
Phonetically motivated sound change in onset clusters of German
We investigate the [kl>tl] shift of initial consonant clusters in Saxon and other German dialects. The shift has been observed in other Germanic languages but also languages all over the world. Current research focuses particular on its distribution in German as well as on articulatory and perceptual traits [Sven Grawunder, Leonardo Lancia, Juliette Blevins[CUNY]).
Phonetics and Phonology of South Munda languages
Gta'(Didayi) and Bonda (Remo) belong to the southern group of Munda languages of the Austoasiatic language family spoken in India. The small-scale fieldwork documentation project of Gta' and Bonda texts is a joint cooperation between Sven Grawunder and Arun Gosh from Burdwan University (India).
Phonetics and Tonology of Ket
Ket is a severely endangered language in Western Siberia. It is the last survivor of its group of Yeniseic languages and the only known language of North Asia which has lexical tone. The joint work between Sven Grawunder and Edward Vaijda from Western Washington U focuses the phonology and tonology of Ket which is unique in Northern Eurasia.
'Sound Comparisons': New Tools and Resources for Exploring Language Family Diversity on the Web
This research project creates 'hover to hear' websites to allow users to hear and compare instantaneously online the precise differences in how specific cognate words are pronounced from one region to the next across an entire language family at a time. The database is that of the related research theme on Language Relatedness and Divergence, which in this accompanying project is turned into an online resource not just for researchers in linguistics, but also for the people who actually speak the language varieties concerned. It already covers many thousands of individual word recordings and phonetic transcriptions from scores of regional accents, dialects and languages across both Europe and the Andes. [more]
Sounds of the Andean Languages
Within the broader framework of the above Sound Comparisons research theme, this is a specific project to document and quantify the degree of divergence in phonetics of the major language families of the Andes, particularly Quechua, Aymara and Mapudungun ('Mapuche'). Our comparative recordings and transcriptions will be made available on the much revised and expanded Sounds of the Andean Languages website, to be relaunched in spring 2013. [more]
Vilela (Lule Vilela) phonetics and phonology
What happens if you would be the last speaker of a language? Vilela is such a moribund language spoken in the Chaco area of Argentina. The scarce records point to interesting phonetic-phonemic variation in Vilela. Detailed phonetic analyses of recordings of the last speaker(s) (Sven Grawunder, Lucia Gallucio (U Buenos Aires) and Juliette Blevins (MPI EVA)).
West !Xoon (Taa) phonetics and phonology
This joint work with Christfried Naumann, MPI EvA, Leipzig [link] sets its main focus on phonation types, glottalization and laryngeal-velar coordination in Western !Xóõ a language of the Taa group (KhoeSan). (Sven Grawunder)
Interactions across time scales in speech perception
Flexibility is a key property of our perceptual system due to the richness and to the relative unpredictability of our environment. We investigate how flexible behavior can emerge from the interaction between fast perceptual dynamics, which adapt our perception to the environment "as fast as possible", with slower processes like habituation to the stimuli and learning. [more]
Laryngealization: characterization and interaction with other features
We study the functioning of the larynx in the production of glottal stops and in the production of laryngealized voicing via an original approach to the quantification of this phonetic feature in running speech. [more]
Modeling speech dynamics trough recurrences
If we want to obtain a systematic description of a language in the terms of underlying dynamics we need a systematic way to extract information about these dynamics from the speech signals. [more]
Phonetic constraints on lexical items
Why some sequences of sounds are more frequent than others in world's languages? Our assumption is that physiological constraints are mainly responsible for these distributional biases but that, when phonetic constraints are observed in the context of specific languages, phonetic factors interact with the structural features of these languages. [more]
Statistical modeling of trajectories and shapes applied to speech
Speech unfolds in time and there are many reasons to move away from a static characterization of speech patterns. This is a technical issue with deep theoretical implications, because static characterizations are not informative enough if we want to study speech in a dynamical framework. [more]
Phonetic and phonological description of Even dialects (with a focus on acoustic vowel properties and vowel harmony)
The project is dedicated to the phonetics and phonology of Even, a Tungusic language spoken in eastern Siberia. In her dissertation, Natalia Aralova presents field data from two distant dialects, respectively pertaining to the village of Sebian-Küöl in Yakutia (Western dialect) and the district of Bystraia on the Kamchatka Peninsula (Eastern dialect).

The head of the Russian Orthodox Church called for a special day of prayer in response to a recent protest by a punk band in a cathedral.
The female band Pussy Riot took over a main cathedral in Moscow in February to sing their songs in protest of the church supporting president elect Vladimir Putin, Al Jazeera reports.
Three of the members of Pussy Riot remain under arrest, says a report by the BBC, but Al Jazeera notes through an opinion poll conducted last week that only 10 percent of those surveyed though the protesters should be jailed.
The church was able to gather people from all over the country for the planned day of prayer, but Al Jazeera suggests that it may just be a deflection technique.
"The church has managed to mobilize people from congregations all over the country here, to central moscow, to try and regain the moral high ground, but also in response to accusations that it has a very lavish lifestyle," said Sue Turton of Al Jazeera.
The BBC makes no mention of this possibility and lists the prayer meeting as solely in response to the Pussy Riot confrontation.
