The Quiksilver Vader Glove may be the choice of the Dark Side. Of course, it also may not be. A short fit with a hook-and-loop closure keeps the Vader sealed off from Nature's wrath so springtime handplants don't turn into snow-burned wrists. Elastic leashes and clips prevent accidental drops when you're passing a doobie on the chairlift, while the silicon-printed non-slip grip on the palm makes binding adjustment simple and frustration-free.
- 5K Hipora breathable waterproof insert for adapting to weather changes
- Brushed tricot lining for uber-softness
- Neoprene binding for added durability

Poorly described nice glove
This nice winter glove is not professionally product described. From reading the online description it appears that it is not water repellent, except from inside? Obviously it can't be true when this glove can be used for snowboarding/skiing, right.

Drought, demand from China drive up pecan prices
Hilton Segler, executive director of the National Pecan Growers Council, estimated China would buy 50 million to 60 million pounds of pecans this year, and other countries would buy about 40 million pounds.
Asked about her current price, Mississippi grower and retailer Suzanne Powers replied, "Are you sitting down?"
A 12-ounce bag of plain pecan halves is going for $11 at her Delta Pecan Orchard in Tutwiler, Miss. Last year, the same-size bag went for $9.50.
Farmers, however, typically get much less than the retail price. They averaged $2.30 per pound last year for nuts in the shell. This year, prices are running from $1.25 to $3.50 a pound, with most varieties starting above $2.
Worn, the pecan company executive from Georgia, said retailers who sell bagged pecans are likely to be hardest hit by increased prices. Food manufacturers who use pecans probably can manage more easily.
"When you've got an ingredient customer like Sara Lee, or let's say McKee Foods - Little Debbie - they're able to average that price in with other ingredients," he said.
At Ambrosia Bakery in Baton Rouge, La., owner Felix Sherman Sr. said the price of nuts is one reason he had to raise the price of a 9-inch pecan pie about 15 percent this year, to $12.95. He makes about 500 pecan pies for the Thanksgiving season and about an equal number during the rest of the year.
Sherman said prices for everything seems to be rising, so he thinks people will understand.
Pecans are "just a small luxury. It's a comfort item. And of course," he said hopefully, "Thanksgiving and all, they'd be a staple they'll have to have."

LG's WPD-800 turns wireless charging on its side
By Darren Quick
March 1, 2012
Wireless charging of mobile devices is all the rage if the number of wireless chargers hitting the market is anything to go by. Until now, most of the units on offer follow the flat slab design ushered in by the Powermat and WildCharge that sees recharging devices laid down flat on the charger. LG followed that form factor with its WCP-700 Wireless Charging Pad but has come up with something slightly different for its successor, the WCD-800. The new unit is designed to hold the mobile device upright so you can watch a video or make a video call while the charger goes about its business.
Unveiled at Mobile World Congress 2012 (MWC 2012), the WCD-800 is designed in the shape of a cradle with a lip that supports the mobile device in either vertical or horizontal orientation. Like competitor devices, the unit uses electromagnetic induction to recharge a device's batteries without the need for cables and LG says the unit is as efficient and effective as conventional wired chargers. It is also compatible with all devices compliant with the Wireless Power Consortium's (WPC) Qi standard.
The WCD-800's cradle measures 75.8 mm (2.98 in) wide and the unit boasts a charging area double that of its predecessor.
LG will first launch the wireless charger in Korea, followed by a North American release before mid-2012. No pricing details have yet been announced.

Graffiti lives a lonely and short life in Irvine.
Last year, police took reports of 213 cases and spent about $17,000 removing the visual blight. Neighboring Tustin spends that much on graffiti removal every month.
"Irvine residents are really aware of their community and they really want to keep it in pristine condition," said Mark Wetherall, owner and operator of Naturalwell,
a contractor used by Irvine to remove graffiti. The company has been removing graffiti for Irvine since 1989; it also handles graffiti removal for three property management companies and a utility company.
The city's policy is to remove graffiti within 48 hours. It usually takes less time.
Several studies, including one by the Department of Justice in 2001, have indicated the presence of graffiti contributes to an increase in crime rates. Irvine police said the city is a solid believer in that theory.
Removing work
Graffiti is reported by community members calling police or the city's graffiti removal hotline, police officers on patrol and residents using Irvine's new phone app. If it occurs on public property, the city dispatches Naturalwell, which also will remove graffiti on private property for a fee. When graffiti is discovered in areas operated by the county or Caltrans, those agencies are dispatched to do the removal.
For Wetherall, graffiti removal is the family business. They began doing the work in the late 1980s in England. Their largest client was the London borough of Westminster.
Graffiti can come in many forms: murals along flood channels and inside storm drains, gang monikers spray-painted on a wall, tags and political statements.
But Wetherall said Irvine sees mostly what he calls "nuisance graffiti."
"An example of that would be Jack wanting to tell the world that he and Jill are in love," he joked. "So Jack feels the need to write that on the wall of the restroom or something like that."
Wetherall has seen some unusual graffiti in his time; the oddest, he recalled, were some tags spray-painted right onto the grass.
Removing the graffiti, which is typically done in black marker and spray paint, can be as easy as applying paint remover available at any hardware store. But Wetherall said some require industrial-strength products and must be done in layers. In the most extreme cases and when the area is environmentally sensitive, the graffiti is painted over.
Some graffiti can be difficult to access. Wetherall said he recently removed a tag measuring about 3 feet by 5 feet from a bridge near the UC Irvine campus, forcing him to do about 30 minutes of prep work just to get in a position to reach it.
Behind the tagging
Irvine police Detective David Tran said most of the taggers he has arrested are juveniles 12-13 and 17- to 18-year-olds. Tran said he's arrested taggers from all ethnicities. Wetherall said he's seen taggers from affluent families.
Irvine police said no gangs currently claim Irvine as their territory, so in the rare instance that a tagger is caught using a gang moniker, they're what Tran refers to as "wannabes."

Improved production of human type II procollagen in the yeast Pichia pastoris in shake flasks by a wireless-controlled fed-batch system
1 Bioprocess Engineering Laboratory, Dept. of Process and Environmental Engineering, University of Oulu, P.O.Box 4300, FIN-90014 University of Oulu, Finland
2 Collagen Research Unit, Department of Medical Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Oulu, P.O.Box 5000, FIN-90014 University of Oulu, Finland
3 Biocenter Oulu, University of Oulu, FIN-90014 University of Oulu, Finland
BMC Biotechnology 2008, 8:33 doi:10.1186/1472-6750-8-33Published: 27 March 2008
Here we describe a new technical solution for optimization of Pichia pastoris shake flask cultures with the example of production of stable human type II collagen. Production of recombinant proteins in P. pastoris is usually performed by controlling gene expression with the strong AOX1 promoter, which is induced by addition of methanol. Optimization of processes using the AOX1 promoter in P. pastoris is generally done in bioreactors by fed-batch fermentation with a controlled continuous addition of methanol for avoiding methanol toxification and carbon/energy starvation. The development of feeding protocols and the study of AOX1-controlled recombinant protein production have been largely made in shake flasks, although shake flasks have very limited possibilities for measurement and control.
By applying on-line pO2 monitoring we demonstrate that the widely used pulse feeding of methanol results in long phases of methanol exhaustion and consequently low expression of AOX1 controlled genes. Furthermore, we provide a solution to apply the fed-batch strategy in shake flasks. The presented solution applies a wireless feeding unit which can be flexibly positioned and allows the use of computer-controlled feeding profiles.
By using the human collagen II as an example we show that a quasi-continuous feeding profile, being the simplest way of a fed-batch fermentation, results in a higher production level of human collagen II. Moreover, the product has a higher proteolytic stability compared to control cultures due to the increased expression of human collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase as monitored by mRNA and protein levels.
The recommended standard protocol for methanol addition in shake flasks using pulse feeding is non-optimal and leads to repeated long phases of methanol starvation. The problem can be solved by applying the fed-batch technology. The presented wireless feeding unit, together with an on-line monitoring system offers a flexible, simple, and low-cost solution for initial optimization of the production in shake flasks which can be performed in parallel. By this way the fed-batch strategy can be applied from the early screening steps also in laboratories which do not have access to high-cost and complicated bioreactor systems.

Domestic ABCs
Written by Jeff Thredgold, President, Thredgold Economic Associates
December 16
This week's Tea Leaf is our semi-annual alphabetic view of the U.S. economy. Global ABCs will soon follow…
America—now pursuing one of the most aggressive moves toward the left (bigger and bigger government) ever. Unfortunately, the phrase "we're from the government and we're here to help you" still scares people to death
Budget Deficits—$1,400,000,000,000 last year…about the same this year. Around $1 trillion annually in coming years, which is simply unaffordable. Deficits in 2009-2010?…$160,000,000 every 60 minutes
Confidence—a very critical component for both businesses and consumers as a fragile U.S. economic expansion continues
Dollar—modest weakness of the past year has helped U.S. exporters, leading the U.S. trade deficit with the world to shrink dramatically
Energy Independence—greater use of abundant natural gas, greater access to oil and gas in Alaska and off our coasts, and greater use of nuclear power must be part of the equation in coming years…in addition to "alternative" sources. Could someone let the Congress know?
Federal Reserve—easily the most credible institution in the nation's capital. The Fed will keep its key short-term interest rate…now effectively at zero…unchanged well into 2010
Global Economy—good news! The global economy has already emerged from its first post-WWII recession, led by China, India, and renewed growth in the U.S. and Europe
Health Care—more government intrusion is coming…lucky us! Many of the changes take place beginning in 2013, just after the next Presidential election…how convenient!
Inflation—under control in 2008-2010, tied to slack in labor markets and weak housing and commercial real estate values. Given massive stimulus, the Fed will have to make difficult decisions to rein in monetary stimulus later in 2010 and throughout 2011
Jobs—the loss of 7.2 million jobs since the U.S. recession began in December 2007 has been extremely painful. The expected return to monthly job gains sooner rather than later will be most welcome
Knowledge—and the Ability to Think—the key to individual success in an increasingly sophisticated economy. Ongoing education and training are now lifelong realities for many to be successful. Average annual earnings of a college graduate versus a high school graduate today? Roughly 80%-90% higher
Limits (Term)—The U.S. Congress is out of touch, too partisan, too focused on re-election, and moving too far to the left. Can't we send most of them home (both parties) next November, and seriously consider term limits?
Mortgage Rates—still near 5.00% for conventional 30-year fixed-rate loans. NOW is a great time to refinance for millions of homeowners
Net Worth—the net value of consumers' homes, investments, etc. minus all types of debt rose five percent in the third quarter to $53.6 trillion. Still, the total lags the $64.5 trillion total before the recession began
Obama—the President will face rising opposition from more conservative members of his own party during the next 9-18 months to "slow down" a bit…and get spending under control
Politics—childish and boorish behavior on both sides of the aisle in Washington is ridiculous…and all too typical. Is cooperation really that difficult?
Quarterly Economic Growth—forecasting economists see a 3.0% or better real (after inflation) annual growth pace in the current quarter, followed by 2.5%-3.2% real growth in 2010. The recession is over and done with!
Retirement—the term will take on new meaning in coming decades as more and more people "bridge the gap" (work two or three days a week) between working full-time and moving into full retirement. Millions of retirement-age Baby Boomers will prefer to keep one foot in the workplace for a long time to come
Stocks—the stock market has staged one of its most impressive rallies on record over the past nine months. Why? The stock market typically "looks" 6-9 months ahead, and saw a return to positive U.S. economic growth
Taxes—boosting capital gains, dividend, and income tax rates on the top 5% of income earners could backfire in coming years. Like it or not, these are the people who create jobs and invest. The Administration's focus on "income redistribution" rather than on providing "incentives for U.S. economic growth" is troubling
Unemployment—likely to move slightly above the current 10.0% rate in coming months, even if monthly job gains soon return. Why? Hundreds of thousands of people who previously left the labor force will return as they hear about better employment news. Joblessness will stay too high…for too long
Visitors (Foreign)—will be coming in big numbers during 2010, especially from Asia and Europe. They spend aggressively! Be nice, be kind, and invite them back
Wall Street—simply stated…I remain bullish on stocks
eXit Strategies—success in reversing massive fiscal and monetary stimulus in 2010-2012 will be critical to keeping inflation and government spending under control
Youth—my parents "came of age" with Pearl Harbor…my peers with Kennedy's assassination and Vietnam. For millions of Generations X and Y, September 11 and the "Great Recession" will be forever etched into their consciousness
JaZZ (Utah)—we like to think of them as one of the NBA's elite teams. Can they win it all some time? Like the little train…We think we can…we think we can…we think we can

Light heavyweight standouts Glen Johnson and Daniel Judah have unfinished business with each other after their disputed draw in 2003. On Friday, February 27th, they finally get their chance to get it on again at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida, and tickets are now on sale for what promises to be an explosive rematch..
Priced at $152, $102, $52, and $22, tickets may be purchased at the Hard Rock Live Box Office or TicketMaster.com for Johnson vs Judah II, a night of world-class professional boxing presented by Seminole Warriors Boxing.
Also in action in separate bouts on February 27th will be junior welterweight prospect Jesus Pabon and unbeaten 2008 US Olympic team alternate Danny OConnor, as well as a full slate of hard-hitting undercard bouts.
One of the fight games true heroes, Glen The Road Warrior Johnson (48-12-2, 33 KOs) is a former light heavyweight world champion and Fighter of The Year who, at 40, remains the most feared man in the sport today. Winner of four of his last five bouts by knockout, with the only loss coming via a highly controversial decision to Chad Dawson last April, Johnson is on a quest to right the wrongs inflicted on him during his career, starting with his rematch with Judah.
A member of the famous fighting Judah family, 31 year old Daniel Judah (23-3-3, 10 KOs) is a slick southpaw with speed and savvy in the ring who is looking to get a long overdue world title shot in 2009. Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Judah has been in the ring with the likes of Eric Harding, Julian Letterlough, Darnell Wilson, and Yusaf Mack over the course of his 10-year pro career, and fresh off an impressive 12 round win over Jaffa Ballogou last December, hes peaking at the right time for his return bout with Johnson.
San Juan, Puerto Rico native Jesus Pabon (13-1, 8 KOs) has done his island proud with his two-fisted attack and determination to win. Coming off a 2008 that saw him go 3-0 (including a decision win over 11-1 Bulmaro Solis in August), the 28-year old southpaw is ready for a step up to the big time in 2009.
23-year old southpaw Danny OConnor ended a stellar 95-8 amateur career with an alternate spot on the 2008 US Olympic team, and he has carried that success into the pro game, where he is 2-0 (1 KO) since turning pro last September. On February 27th, he looks to keep the momentum going.
Demarcus "Chop Chop" Corley Added to Feb. 3 Darwish Brothers Card
East Rutherford, NJ- Former Junior-Welterweight champion Demarcus "Chop Chop" Corley has been added to the Darwish Brothers Knockout Promotions show now scheduled for Tuesday, February 3. Corley, who won the WBO 140 pound title with a dramatic first round KO of Felix Flores in 2001, will compete in a ten-round contest against an opponent to be named later.
Corley defended his world title twice before dropping a close decision to Zab Judah. Over the course of his career, Corley has thrilled fans with his performances against Floyd Mayweather Jr., Miguel Cotto and Junior Witter.
"I'm looking for 2009 to be one of the best years of my career," says Corley, 32-10-1 (18 KO), of Washington DC. "I want to fight 6 or 7 times and then win another world title. It will be a great opportunity for me to fight on the East Coast again. I'm looking to put on an exciting fight for the fans. I will do my best to score a knockout."
Says Wally Darwish: "We feel that 'Chop Chop' Corley needs to get on the right road to get to his destination. We want to be the vehicle to drive him there. He's only a few fights away from regaining a world championship. We'll get him the fights, he has to earn the wins."

Oh, sure, it's quite cliche to take a hot topless woman with beautiful breasts and put her in a milky motif. But there's also a reason for cliches. Often they are rehashed because they simply work. And Rhian Sugden topless drinking milkshakes? Yeah, that most definitely works, even for the lactose-intolerant among us.
Rhian Sugden has to be one of the hottest natural bodied women on this planet. Give her a straw and a glass and something milky shaken, not stirred, and you have the makings of a truly memorable visual experience. Go on, look, and you won't soon forget. Yep, that's it, I can see you smiling too. Enjoy.

Working with Fil-Am Oscar nominee
Filipino filmmaker Raya Martin will work with Oscar-nominated Filipino-American director of photography Matthew Libatique on the new film, "The Empire."
"We are very excited to finally work with him," said Raya of Libatique, who is best known for shooting the Hollywood movies "Black Swan" and "Iron Man."
Arleen Cuevas, Martin's producer, told the Inquirer that she presented "The Empire" in two major coproduction markets—Berlinale Co-Production Market in Germany in February and Guadalajara Ibero-American Co-Production Market in Mexico earlier this month.
Martin plans to begin "The Empire" shoot in Mexico in 2015. Developed during Martin's Berlin Residency in 2012, the film will feature a cast of Filipino, Mexican and Spanish actors. In the meantime, Martin is wrapping up work on the thriller "How to Disappear Completely," which top-bills Nonie Buencamino, Shamaine Centenera-Buencamino and Ness Roque. "How to Disappear" is supported by the Hubert Bals Fund, a grant given by the Rotterdam fest. Bayani San Diego Jr.

[bug report] VDPAU nvidia: Error detected 10 2230 7 - DSO load base
1 Attachment(s)
running a custom application on an ATOM / NVIDIA ION-2 box I ran into the following behavior after frequently switching between videos (i.e. loading and unloading videos from a Gstreamer pipeline) . The videos are H.264 1080p25. Although everything works fine from the beginning I'm getting errors after a while which finally result in a "VideoSurfaceCreate returned error = 23" (i.e. VDP_STATUS_RESOURCES error message) from the pipeline. Tracing and debugging VDPAU I got to the following (cryptic) message:
VDPAU nvidia: Version: NVIDIA VDPAU Driver Shared Library 275.19 Tue Jul 12 18:51:46 PDT 2011
Re: [bug report] VDPAU nvidia: Error detected 10 2230 7 - DSO load base
Well, that does not sound like an overwhelming response to a frequent bug...
Is there something more I could provide to shed additional light to it?
Is there a document which would explain the magic numbers "10 2230 7"?

Want to have some fun? Do a web search on "I hate HDR." Tons of pages will come.
Here is something else about HDR (High Dynamic Range photography) that I found kinda funny. I once heard a photographer say, "I teach HDR the right way."
As my dad used to say, "To each his own." I say, "Why hate anything?" And, my take on teaching HDR - or creating HDR images - is that there is no "right way" and no "one way" to create HDR images.
It's all personal, like all art.
Some folks like realistic-looking HDR images, such as the image above, while others like super-saturated images with the grunge look, like the image below. Both images were taken on my workshops.
I don't teach HDR the right way, I simply teach it my way - which covers creating all types of HDR images.
The HDR program I recommend most is Photomatix from HDR soft. You can save 15% on Photomatix when you use this code - ricksammon - upon checkout from the HDR soft web site.
Here is post I did on the latest version of Photomatix.
One tip I do offer when it comes to HDR: The subject often suggests the HDR effect. For example, you probably want a natural-looking HDR image for a landscape, while the super-saturated/grunge effect may look good on a photo of an old car.
As with all your photography, I say follow your heart. Or as Ginger Baker wrote, "Do what you like."
If you want to get good at HDR, put yourself in a very high-contrast situation: shoot indoors and get details inside and outside. If you can see into the shadows and if your highlights are not blown out in your final HDR image, you are on your way to creating a good HDR image - your way. The image directly above illustrates that technique.
Want to learn more about HDR? Check out my iPad app, Rick Sammon's iHDR, which is listed on My Apps page.
All the creative plug-ins that I use are listed on my Play & Save on Plug-ins page.

Curious shape to these photos, but I can't think what else it could be.

Hoof Fungus is popular on birch trees. Apparently they can act as great tinder to start fires.

What is this magnificent waterfall like fungus specimen. I believe the log is beech. It's about the size of a basketball.
There is a small possibility this could be Carex lupuliformis (which is Critically imperiled in Ontario). A diligent field check would examine the achenes which are rhomboid in C. lupiliformis and broad, somewhat flattened in lupulinus. A quicker method might be to squeeze the head which will feel spiny in the case of C. lupuliformis.
The status of C. lupuliformis means that any occurences of this species in Ontario and other applicable jusidictions should be reported to relevant authorites.

After purchasing, downloading and installing Aphrodite it does not appear to be functional. I am using Wordpress 3.5. It's a completely new wordpress install on a completely new cpanel install and no other plugins are active. I basically installed cPanel, installed wordpress, and installed Aphrodite, and it is not working:
When I update the colors on the color palette and save it the colors do not update. When I go to the skin manager there are no skins listed, and no matter how I adjust the colors in the color palette and save the skin as different names, the skin does not save – the skin manager is still completely empty.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I feel I've just spent $45 on something that I cannot use.
For instance, I just now went to custom colors in the theme colors, changed all the colors to the same color purple, saved, and with cache and history cleared, the pages are still not showing with the custom colors. I also saved it as a skin, and the skin manager still has no list of skins at all.
Have you tried deleting your browser cookies and pressing CTRL + F5 when you're on the homepage? Or try to view it in another browser. If it doesn't work, contact the author.

Having exactly the same problem!!! It's so frustrating. I've bought other themes from here and the support is so good, I thought most would be the same.
If you're still having problems with the theme/style editor, try updating to Wordpress 3.5 and installing v1.3 of the Aphrodite theme. Just tried it and it seems to be working alright now – we shall see how it goes!
Hi, this is Cheryl.
Actually I do have WP 3.5 and v.1.3 [I just downloaded and installed both yesterday]. I've cleared all history, and have viewed the page from multiple browsers and computers – after making the entire set of custom colors purple the page is still on the default colors, and still no skins.
I did toggle the full page/ bordered styles and that seemed to work, but I still cannot save that as a skin and still cannot change the colors of the theme.
I did contact the author on the product page and have not yet received a response. If I do and the issue is resolved I will post it here for anyone else who may be having an issue.
This issue has been resolved by the author, but I do not know how he resolved.
Regards, Cheryl
The author fixed the issue on my installation. Thank you!

'Dungeon of Death' shows dark side
"Dungeon of Death" isn't the most uplifting of titles for a pro wrestling book being released this holiday season. Neither are the topics covered.
In addressing the rash of premature deaths that have afflicted the industry, author Scott Keith has written biographies of 30-plus wrestlers who didn't live to see 50. He places special emphasis on those who came through the Calgary, Alberta-based Stampede Wrestling promotion that aired in Canada when he was a youngster in the 1980s.
The most notable wrestler from that province is Chris Benoit, who cut his teeth in Stampede before finding World Wrestling Entertainment stardom. Benoit, though, is best known for murdering his wife and 7-year-old son before committing suicide in June 2007.
Benoit and Eddie Guerrero, who died in 2005 at the age of 38, were two of Keith's favorite performers. Their demise and the backstories behind them are a major reason Keith is no longer an avid wrestling fan.
"Anybody I had put interest in was turning up dead," Keith said. "This covers the main reasons why."
Eye-popping tales of substance and steroid abuse abound in "Dungeon of Death" ($14.95; Citadel Press). So do Keith's suggestions for avoiding future tragedies.
Keith's biographies recall a simpler time in pro wrestling when WWE didn't have such a stranglehold on the market. A blogger for insidepulse.com, Keith has frequented message boards filled with fellow fans alienated by today's product. Many are in the same age demographic as the 34-year-old Keith, whose full-time job is as a drugstore manager in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
"A lot of us have shifted to MMA now," said Keith, referring to mixed-martial-arts fighting. "The excitement I felt before the Brock Lesnar-Randy Couture fight was something I hadn't felt in wrestling in a really long time. It made me miss wrestling's glory days and the 'Monday Night' wars (of the 1990s).
"When (World Championship Wrestling) died in 2001, a whole group of people just went away rather than get absorbed into WWE's audience. The same thing is kind of happening again considering (television) ratings are almost half of what they were a few years ago."
A lighter look at pro wrestling can be found in another recently released tome. "Shoot First ... Ask Questions Later" ($19.95; ECW Press) is the latest offering from James Guttman, who runs the worldwrestlinginsanity.com Web site. Guttman revisits the straight-shooting interviews he has conducted with some of the industry's biggest performers, like Scott Steiner, Eric Bischoff and Jesse Ventura.

Ring of Honor
For the first time since its 2002 inception, the promotion that helped produce such stars as CM Punk and Samoa Joe is about to receive much-deserved mainstream attention.
The Northeast-based Ring of Honor recently signed a deal that will land its pay-per-view shows on DirecTV in early 2009. This marks the company's largest television outlet since ROH began producing tape-delayed cards on pay-per-view in May 2007.
ROH also should benefit from the positive buzz surrounding "The Wrestler," which has its nationwide theatrical release Wednesday. Based loosely on the roller-coaster career of Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Mickey Rourke stars as a down-in-the-dumps veteran trying to get his act together for one last big match.
Rourke's fight scenes were filmed last March at ROH shows in Dover, Del. His trainer for the stunts was Afa Anoai, who found WWE stardom in the late 1970s and early '80s teaming with brother Sika as The Wild Samoans.

Washington's source for compelling television and inspiring classical music. Donate Online
It's official – Doc Martin Season 7 is coming! To be fair, we all sort of assumed this to be the case already – either through just general fannish intuition, blind hope or the fact that star Martin Clunes offhandedly referenced heading back to Cornwall to start production in a recent interview.
At any rate, it's at least nice to have official confirmation – straight from the horse's mouth as it were. ITV has officially announced the start of filming on Season 7, along with a few choice details about with the future has in store for the residents of Portwenn next year.
Despite the fact that no one seems to have officially announced anything about a seventh season of megapopular comedy series Doc Martin being a thing that's happening, well: it actually really looks like it's a thing that is happening.
This news undoubtedly comes as a welcome relief to fans, who'd previously been led to believe that the Britcom's sixth season could be its last, but then, following the conclusion of this most recent outing, there was basically global radio silence about the whole thing. Until now.
The sitcom Vicious has just started airing on PBS stations this past weekend and it certainly lives up to its name. Starring British acting legends Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi, the two play a gay couple who've been together for almost half a century. A lifetime of companionship has worn on their collective nerves and most of what remains between them is catty remarks, primarily from Freddie (McKellan), and not just a little resentment on the part of Stuart (Jacobi).
Of course deep down the two men really do love one another, but if everything between them was sweetness and light it wouldn't be nearly as funny, would it?
That got me to thinking about other telly couples who are prone to rows and other types of altercations. Regardless of the nature of the relationship, discord and disagreement makes things interesting and, when you're not the one in the middle of it all, funny as well.
Worlds colliding! Well, sort of, at least. Doc Martin star Martin Clunes has signed up to play Sherlock Holmes creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in an upcoming drama for British network ITV. Whilst it's not exactly Clunes scoring a guest spot on popular mystery series Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, it's close enough for me.
The three-part series, called Arthur and George, will adapt Julian Barnes' novel of the same name, which is loosely based on an intriguing series of genuine events in the life of Conan Doyle.
Set in 1903, the story focuses on Conan Doyle's real-life attempts to clear George Edaliji, an Anglo-Indian solicitor who is serving time in Pentonville Prison after being (falsely) accused of a series of attacks on livestock in Staffordshire that have become known as the The Great Wyrley Rippings.
Fans everywhere love quirky British comedy Doc Martin – it's consistently one of our most popular series around here – because it's packed with great actors and interesting, layered characters.
Series 6 of this beloved series is currently airing on many PBS stations around the country (and if it's not yet, it probably will be soon!) and, to celebrate, we put together a little character quiz based on a handful of our favorite Portwenn characters past and present.
Answer the questions and see who you get – and let us know what character you got in the comments!
Take the quiz at weta.org.
The wait is almost over – or, at the very least, we can see the light at the end of the tunnel! Yes, really, a first look trailer for Doc Martin Series 6 has been released – giving us our first new footage of Martin Ellingham and the wacky residents of Portwenn in well over a year. (Possibly over two years if we're counting on UK time? But let's not make ourselves feel worse, shall we?)
Stars Martin Clunes and Caroline Catz are both back, alongside Dame Eileen Atkins, Ian McNeice, John Marquez and more, as Martin and Louisa appear to be settling back into both raising a baby and working together. Oh, and maybe actually getting married finally.
At any rate, following the dramatic and difficult events of Series 5, it looks as though things have reverted a bit more to form in the new season – this trailer has the same kind of quirky, communal feel as Doc Martin's first couple of seasons and already seems an improvement in tone over Series 5. (It certainly seems to have found its charm again, at least!)
See for yourselves below.
Welcome to another new series here at Telly Visions where we try and ease the (occasionally absurdly long) hiatus-es of some of our favorite British shows by offering alternative suggestions of things you should watch while you're waiting for new episodes to return. Carmen's up first, but you guys just wait till I get to the Sherlock section….
Being a British telly addict in the States can be difficult at times. Never mind there are fewer episodes per series than Americans are used to – I've learned to accept the fact and concede that I prefer quality over quantity. But we also have to wait our turn until all our eagerly anticipated programs debut in their homeland first. Fair enough maybe, but it is hard to be patient so much of the time. (I'm sure you heard the whine in your head as you read the preceding sentences.)
Take for example, the newest series of the fan favorite, Doc Martin. It's set to air in the UK sometime during ITV's autumn schedule - which probably means no Doctor Ellingham for the Yanks until the spring of 2014 at least. So rather than whinge about it, I'm here to offer some alternative viewing suggestions, just to hold you over until the real Doc Martin comes along.
Housekeeping note: Technical issues waylaid the Friday News Roundup yesterday. (Hurray, storms!) It'll be back next week. Hope everyone in the DC metro area is safe and sound – and staying cool!
Before Doc Martin the series existed, the character that would become Martin Ellingham made his first appearance in a 2000 film called Saving Grace. Thanks to the success of this film, two made-for-TV prequels were made, both featuring Martin Clunes playing the doctor who was then known as Martin Bamford. The character is a bit (lot?) different, the villagers aren't the same, and the town's called something else, but you can still see a few similarities to the show we all enjoy so much.
We just aired the first of these – called, simply, Doc Martin: The Movie –last weekend, and I thought it might be fun to try and dig into a little bit – both on its own merits and how it stacks up against Doc Martin: The Series. Plus, I'll be honest, I'm missing the Great Doc Martin Rewatch and its fabulous discussion threads, and I'm already feeling cranky about the fact that they don't even start filming Series 6 until next year. (Why does being a TV fan involve so much waiting?) So, please, indulge me.
Click through and come chat with me about Doc Martin: The Movie and, as always, feel free to leave your thoughts, favorite moments, funny lines, general rants, whatever, in the comments.
Did you know that before Martin Clunes played Martin Ellingham in the series Doc Martin, he actually starred in a made-for-television movie of the same name? (This was news to me when I found out a couple months back, so don't feel bad if you didn't.)
Doc Martin: The Movie was conceived as a prequel to the 2000 film Saving Grace with Brenda Blethyn and Craig Ferguson, in which Clunes also appears. In the TV film, he plays the successful but unhappy Dr. Martin Bamford, who discovers that his wife has been sleeping with three of his friends. His world in tatters, Bamford flees London and heads for the small fishing village of Port Isaac, on the north coast of Cornwall, to try and work out the big questions in his life.
Some of that probably sounds pretty familiar, though some of the names and particulars have changed from this early version of the story to the series that we know. Obviously Martin's last name is different, and the village he ends up in isn't the same (though, oddly enough "Port Isaac" is the actual name of the real village that stands in for Portwenn in the seires!). This early version of Martin is also not nearly as curmudgeonly or grumpy as the man we're used to seeing every week, those character traits were added in at Clunes' suggestion to help sell the series to ITV.
Click through for a brief preview, airdate details for this Saturday and another (kiiiind of hilarious) promo photo.
Our Doc Martin viewing marathon here at Telly Visions has finally, officially caught up, getting all the way through Series 5 this week. I feel ever so accomplished and pleased!
Before we start chatting about the actual last two episodes – I did want to take a second and say thank you to everyone who has for read and commented and been generally thoughtful and wonderful through this whole series. While I am very much not looking forward to having to wait through the hiatus with everyone else, it's also just really going to feel strange not to sit down and wrestle with my personal thoughts about Martin and Louisa and romance and gender issues and strange neighbor every week. So, thanks for making it so fun. These recaps will of course return for Series 6, and I hear we're airing the Doc Martin movies in June on WETA and those sound different/strange enough that I think writing about them will be fun so keep an eye out for that next month.
Oh, and I do want to keep doing more of these series re-watch kinds of things. They're fun! So if you have any suggestions about what else might make an interesting weekly show to chat about, let me know in the comments. Current things under consideration: Sherlock Holmes (I'm a big Sherlockian, but have only seen about a third of the Jeremy Brett TV series), Doctor Who, Lark Rise to Candleford and Life on Mars. However, I am open to suggestions, so throw any and all ideas at me please.
So, onward! Click through and come chat with me about "Cats and Sharks" and "Ever After," and, as always, feel free to leave your thoughts, favorite moments, funny lines, general rants, whatever, in the comments.

A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that the New York Jets have not made a decision on the status of embattled offensive coordinator Tony Sparano. While many fans and media have speculated that Sparano will be fired after one season with the Jets, the person says Wednesday that the team has not yet made a final determination - meaning there's a chance he could remain on coach Rex Ryan's staff for next season. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the status of the coaching staff. The Jets' offense struggled mightily this season, finishing 30th overall. The team is looking for a new general manager after owner Woody Johnson fired Mike Tannenbaum on Monday. --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL

ClassicsOnline Home » SAINT-SAENS: Piano Trios Nos. 1 and 2
Classic CD
Penguin Guide
Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921)
Piano Trio No.1 in F Major, Op. 18
Piano Trio No.2 in E Minor, Op. 92
Camille Saint-Saëns was, like Mozart and Mendelssohn, precocious in his musical talents, first shown after piano lessons from his great-aunt at the age of two and a half. He coupled with his musical interests a wide general enthusiasm for learning of all kinds, literary and scientific, and was, as a composer, to produce music of many genres during a career that spanned the second half of the nineteenth century and the first twenty-one years of the twentieth, starting in a period that knew Mendelssohn and continuing beyond the death of Debussy.
Saint-Saëns was born in Paris in 1835, the son of a clerk in the French government service, who died shortly after the birth of his only child. He was cared for by his mother and her aunt, who gave him his first piano lessons. Thereafter he studied with Camille Stamaty, a pupil of Kalkbrenner and of Mendelssohn, and appeared in public concerts as a child, having, by the age of ten, memorised all the Beethoven piano sonatas. At the same time he showed an aptitude for and interest in a wide variety of subjects. In 1848 he entered the Conservatoire, studying the organ with Benoist and composition with Halevy, and continuing to show his gifts as a pianist and organist and as a composer. His intellectual curiosity led him to espouse the cause of contemporary music, as well as the revival of music by earlier composers.
A member of the circle of Pauline Viardot, a valued friend, Saint-Saëns taught briefly at the newly established Ecole Niedermeyer, where his pupils included Gabriel Fauré, a musician with whom he established a close relationship. In 1871 he was instrumental in the foundation of the Société Nationale de Musique, with its aim of propagating French music, Ars Gallica. His great-aunt died in 1872 and three years later he contracted a marriage which came to an abrupt end six years later, after the earlier death of his two sons. He was left alone by the death of his mother in 1888 and spent much of his later life travelling, accompanied by his dog. By the time of his own death in 1921 he had to some extent outlived his reputation at home. In France this was the age of Les Six. Debussy was dead, Fauré was near the end of his life and Stravinsky had already, some eight years earlier, scandalized Paris with his Rite of Spring. Saint-Saëns continued to compose, although Ravel unkindly suggested that in war-time he might have been more productively employed. Abroad he retained his reputation. Once known as the French Mendelssohn, his music continued to appeal to audiences in much the same way as his predecessor's, for its clarity of texture and its attractive powers of invention, calculated to delight rather than to shock.
Saint-Saëns wrote his Piano Trio in F major, Opus 18, in 1863 at a particularly successful period of his life, when he enjoyed at home the care of his mother and her aunt and outside a very considerable reputation as a musician. The first movement of the trio, marked Allegro vivace, shows all the clarity of Mendelssohn, coupled with a particularly French harmonic vocabulary. The figure with which the main theme opens, introduced by the cello, is of considerable importance in what follows, music that explores the possibilities of violin and cello, together with piano writing of some brilliance. The Andante is based on an angular A minor theme, moving briefly to the relaxation of a song-like major section before the return of the original melody. This is followed by a Scherzo that starts with a playful pizzicato and includes two syncopated trio sections in contrasting keys. The final Allegro, which opens with the piano providing an accompaniment to antiphonal use of violin and cello, has a second theme of contrapuntal possibilities that always seem about to be more fully realised. The movement allows the piano further opportunities for delicate brilliance, leading to an unexpected conclusion.
Nearly thirty years were to pass before Saint-Saëns returned to the form of the piano trio in his Trio in E minor, Opus 92, written in 1892. The choice of key suggests a more sombre work and the first movement opens with a principal theme for the violin and cello, with the piano providing a series of widely spaced chords in music of growing intensity and piano figuration of greater brilliance, leading to a moving secondary theme in E major. A version of this material is repeated before a dramatic excursion into a grandiloquent development of the themes and a histrionic coda, ending with an unexpected form of plagal cadence. The second movement opens with music of tender delicacy, its major mode contradicted by an ominous section in E minor. A gentle return to the earlier material leads to an Allegro passage with piano writing of particular brilliance. The cello brings back the original theme and mood, followed by the violin, before the return of the minor episode and a return to the brilliance of the Allegro, now in A minor. The final section starts in the mood of the opening of the movement and ends with a direct gentle reminiscence of the principal theme, before the final certainty of the closing bars. The third movement, marked Andante con moto, and appassionato is introduced by the piano, followed by the cello, in an A flat melody of descending contour, later taken up by the violin. The same material, used with harmonic ingenuity, forms the substance of the movement. This is followed by a G major movement marked Grazioso, poco allegro, its cheerful principal theme allotted first to the piano. An E major episode intervenes, before the return of the main theme and its further development. The composer's fertile powers of melodic invention are again displayed in the final Allegro, which starts with an E minor melodic line from the piano, abetted then by violin and cello, before what promises to be contrapuntal treatment, which actually appears later, when the violin announces a fugal subject, answered in turn by piano and cello, and later fully combined with the first theme of the movement. A moto perpetuo version of this theme provides an exciting conclusion to a work of brilliance and imagination, a significant addition to the piano trio repertoire.

I can't just call up HR and ask this question so I figure you guys will be honest =)
I qualify for my FMLA leave paid, which is nice and unexpected. I have primary and secondary insurance (through my husband). My husband thinks that we will be fine for me to stay home, but we don't want to tell HR until maybe December (just in case something happens). I have heard that if I don't come back, it's possible for the company to sue or however they go about it, me for all the health insurance costs if I don't go back??? I would rather just cancel my primary insurance through the company now (even though it would cost us a bit more in the long run), and not take the risk of them suing me for that money, then go back to work for a week and then decide "oh i just can't hack it", since legally I would have "returned to work". I am just confused about this.....sorry it's long!

May 11, 2011 – (BRONX, NY) – Arturo Casadevall, M.D., Ph.D., and Ekaterina Dadachova, Ph.D., of Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University have been named winners of Grand Challenges Explorations, an initiative funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Arturo Casadevall, M.D., Ph.D. (left),
Ekaterina Dadachova, Ph.D. (right)Their project, "Radioimmunotherapy in patients on anti-retroviral therapy for HIV cure," involves using radioimmunotherapy (in which radioactive isotopes are attached to antibodies) to treat HIV/AIDS. Here the antibody will target a specific protein on the surface of cells infected with HIV so that radiation emitted by its attached isotope will destroy the cells.
Grand Challenges Explorations is a $100 million initiative funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Launched in 2008, Grand Challenge Explorations grants have already been awarded to nearly 500 researchers from over 40 countries. Drs. Casadevall and Dadachova's project is one of more than 85 Grand Challenges Explorations Round 6 grants announced April 28 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Dr. Casadevall is the Leo and Julia Forchheimer Chair in Microbiology and Immunology and professor and chair of the department. Dr. Dadachova is the Sylvia and Robert S. Olnick Faculty Scholar in Cancer Research and associate professor of nuclear medicine and of microbiology & immunology.
After an antibody latches onto a protein on the surface of a T cell infected with HIV, the radioactive isotope attached to the antibody emits radiation that destroys the infected cell. "GCE winners are expanding the pipeline of ideas for serious global health and development challenges where creative thinking is most urgently needed. These grants are meant to spur on new discoveries that could ultimately save millions of lives," said Chris Wilson, director of Global Health Discovery at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Drs. Casadevall and Dadachova's winning project is based on their November 2006 paper in PLoS Medicine that showed radioimmunotherapy could successfully target and destroy human immune cells infected with HIV. The impact of this discovery could be significant – the World Health Organization estimates that there are over 33 million adults and children living with HIV/AIDS worldwide. The team uses a radionuclide supplied by their collaborators at the Institute for Transuranium Elements (ITU), Karlsruhe, Germany.
This project is just one of the many successful investigations the two Einstein scientists have undertaken during their 10-year collaboration. Other promising efforts include using radioimmonotherapy to treat incurable metastatic melanoma (their technology was licensed by Pain Therapeutics, Inc. and is now in clinical trials) and coating nanoparticles with melanin pigment to protect bone marrow from the damaging effects of radiation.
