Rockets at Thunder: What Bettors Need To Know
Houston Rockets at Oklahoma City Thunder (-4.5, 207)
The Oklahoma City Thunder did not look quite as dynamic on offense in their first game without Russell Westbrook but leaned on Kevin Durant and got a win. Durant will try to carry his team to a third straight triumph when the Thunder host the Houston Rockets on Sunday. Westbrook is out until after the All-Star break following a third surgery on his right knee and Reggie Jackson struggled to 10 points on 4-of-19 shooting while starting in his place.
Without Westbrook around to break down defenses, Oklahoma City is determined to share the ball and win with defense. "It's what we take pride in," Thunder coach Scott Brooks said. "We're a defensive team. We're a team that can score, but we're a defensive team. We take pride in every possession." That defense will get a big test from the Rockets, who average 106.3 points and will be looking for some revenge after falling to Oklahoma City in the first round of the playoffs last spring.
ABOUT THE ROCKETS (21-11): That six-game playoff loss prompted Houston to overhaul its roster with the addition of centerpiece Dwight Howard, who has proven to be a quick fit in the Rockets' pick-and-roll offense. Howard collected 24 points and 18 rebounds in a 107-98 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday and has posted a double-double in 11 of the last 13 games. "I think we are just finding the right chemistry and guys are having the will to win and just doing the little things to help down the stretch, no matter how they are playing the rest of the quarter," forward Terrence Jones said after a strong finish to Saturday's triumph.
ABOUT THE THUNDER (24-5): Westbrook initially hurt the knee in that playoff series against Houston when he banged into Patrick Beverley while trying to call a timeout. Beverley, who is out with a broken hand, will not be around this time but Oklahoma City's defense will still have to deal with Howard and James Harden. Durant went for 34 points, 12 rebounds and six assists without Westbrook on Friday and is determined to win without his running mate. "The only thing we can do to honor him is play as hard as we can every night and continue to trust and lean on each other," Durant told reporters.
* Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
* Underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.
* Thunder are 5-0 ATS in their last five vs. Western Conference.
* Under is 5-1 in Rockets last six Sunday games.
1. Oklahoma City took two of the three regular-season meetings in 2012-13, including a 120-98 triumph in its lone home game.
2. Durant's 12 rebounds on Friday were his most since posting 13 against Golden State on Nov. 29.
3. Houston C Greg Smith (knee) missed his fourth straight game on Saturday and is day-to-day.

From the Publisher"In Our Natural History: The Lessons of Lewis and Clark, reissued with a new afterword by the author in celebration of the Lewis and Clark bicentennial, Botkin uses the journals to depict vividly the West of Lewis and Clark's time, comparing it with his own journeys to these now greatly changed places. In the end, Botkin argues, we must 'come to a new understanding of the texture and weave of nature and of our relationship with it."—Nature Conservancy Magazine
Praise for the previous edition:
"With scores of natural ecosystems endangered in at least half of the contiguous 48 states, the pertinent scientific question is, 'How can they be saved?' Botkin provides a bag of clues and a map. It is provocative and interesting reading."—Sierra Magazine
Our Natural History moves like a bracing hike in the Rockies with a partner who, unlike Lewis and Clark themselves, is possessed of the scientist's intellectual discipline and the naturalist's sense of wonder."—Audubon Magazine
"Hard hitting and provocative. We can only hope that books like this will steer us toward a more respectful and environmentally sound way of life."—Booklist
"Everyone who shares an interest in the environment and the economic future should read this book. He has a view of the environment that is both practical and deeply rooted in history and fundamental science, and he emerges with important and innovative things to say about the perceived tensions between ecology and competitiveness. Centering these approaches on the journals of the Lewis and Clark expedition provides great continuity with the American West as it existed shortly after the United States became a nation."—Harold J. Morowitz, Director, Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study, George Mason University

The body investigating British abuses in Iraq says it will not request as evidence the US Senate report on CIA torture, in the case of two Pakistani men tortured and rendered by the UK and the US.
The government is facing calls for the publication of the Chilcot report into the war in Iraq as a matter of urgency before the general election on 7 May 2015.
Senior UN officials have called on the government of Iraq to impose a moratorium on the use of the death penalty after a new report on the rise of executions in the country.
Thinking about how to respond to ISIS/IS, and in view of the perilous realities of Iraq and Syria, have we tended to ignore the increasing tensions in Palestine and the relationship between all these? Regional commentator and Ekklesia associate Dr Harry Hagopian argues that ISIS cannot be dealt with by brute force and must be countered by political solutions that re-enfranchise the peoples of the region.
In his latest podcast for the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, Ekklesia associate and regional adviser/expert Dr Harry Hagopian looks at the on-going fight to contain and repel IS/ISIS and the pressure on the borders of Iraq, Syria and Turkey. He also updates on moves to bring stability to Libya.
'Timor mortis conturbat me' – the fear of death disturbs me. These words, from the liturgy of the Roman Catholic church, first became a literary device in medieval times, bracketing human follies and fears within the ambit of our common mortality.
The director of the Baptist Union of Scotland has criticised plans to bomb Iraq, saying Arab Christian leaders do not support western military action.
One sign of the impact of militarism is the number of progressively minded people who express a belief in peace but support war once it is proposed. This is rather like being teetotal until you're offered a drink.
The UK government is seeking parliament's approval to join the USA in carrying out air strikes on Iraq. The aim is to weaken Isis forces, responsible for various atrocities. But the attack may strengthen them instead.

Canadian Selected as Captain for Old Head Golf Links
Sportsman Ted Duncan Honoured as the 2013-2014 Captain
Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) August 20, 2013
The Old Head Golf Links of Kinsale, Ireland named noted Canadian athlete, politician, and lawyer Ted Duncan as its 2013-2014 Captain, effective on July 28, 2013.
Mr. Duncan played quarterback for the UBC Thunderbirds and went on to quarterback and punt in the CFL for the BC Lions and Calgary Stampeders. After retiring from professional football, Mr. Duncan ran a successful law practice in Calgary and served two terms as Alderman for the city. A frequent visitor to Ireland, Mr. Duncan was one of the founding members of the Old Head Golf Club, and has also been a member of the Point Grey Golf Club in Vancouver for 28 years, where he still plays whenever he is not abroad.
The Old Head Golf Links, founded in 1997, is situated on a 220 acre diamond-shaped peninsula that extends two miles out into the Atlantic Ocean. Located on the southern tip of Ireland, it is consistently selected as one of the finest golf courses in the world. Links Magazine named it the number one most spectacular course in 2011, and http://www.pga.com voted it one of its top ten most beautiful golf courses.
"This is a great honour," said Mr. Duncan. "Being chosen as captain for such a fabled golf course was one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences of my life."

Re: Champagne taste on a beer budget
O.K. I have to chime in as the contrarian now. You are N O T going to get your money back out of any boat unless you are V E R Y lucky. You have to realize that most of the people on this site have been charmed into thinking this way by their demon boats that have totaly convuluted their brains. I sold my last boat for what I had put into it in the previous 2 years and even then I regretted selling her. Do You see their demonic ability? I mean after all the only thing I needed was a bigger boat.
Never try to make rational decisions regarding boats... it's an oxy-moron.
I would agree however that a boat with adequate headroom and a phrf of 180 or so would probably be a great starter boat.
28-32' ... Just don't let her demonic spirit convince you that you need to start pouring money into her to have a good time sailing.
I absolutly agree. You might get what you paid for a boat, but, that doesn't include all cost of all the upgrades you made! Get a boat upon which you will not be too upset about unleashing a money canon. The size of the money canon being dependant somewhat on the size of the boat.

to know total nutrient intake in the diet relative to the UL, exposure estimates analogous to those for conventional foods need to be developed for dietary supplements.
GUIDING PRINCIPLE 16. Where discretionary fortification is scientifically justified for special-use products, the intended use of the targeted food should be the standard against which the nutrient content is assessed.
The committee's discussion of food marketed for special purposes focused on three types: those specially formulated for targeted populations at risk, meal replacements, and food designed as alternative sources of nutrients. In the United States some small children require relatively high amounts of nutrients that are inadequate in their diets. In this situation foods are formulated to ameliorate the nutrient inadequacy. For example, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children has used cereals highly fortified with iron as a cornerstone of its efforts to decrease anemia among at-risk children. These special cases may require the use of higher amounts of discretionary fortification than might be suitable for more general-purpose food products.
Meal replacements are single foods—in bar, powdered mixes for reconstitution, or ready-to-drink form—that are intended to replace one or more meals or to serve as a sole source of nourishment. These products are marketed to or "represented for use" by a variety of individuals, such as those seeking a convenient meal or snack, those trying to manage their weight, and those at nutritional risk due to involuntary weight loss or recovery from illness or surgery.
In the United States FDA does not regulate the nutrient composition of meal replacements, but how a product is represented for use plays an important role in determining appropriate fortification goals for these products. FDA's current general fortification policy (FDA, 1980; 21 C.F.R. 104.20) states that nutrients must be added to food in proportion to caloric content. FDA recognizes that this policy may not be appropriate if a food is represented for use as a substitute for one made to resemble a traditional food. For example, a product represented to be used in a weight-reduction program is more appropriately fortified to replace the vitamins and minerals normally provided by a traditional meal that contains more calories.
In Canada "special purpose foods," which include meal replacements and nutritional supplements, are handled separately from

Void deck
|The examples and perspective in this article or section deal primarily with Singapore and do not represent a worldwide view of the subject. (May 2012)
A void deck is typically found under apartment blocks in Singapore. The void deck occupies the ground level, while apartments are usually on the second floor onwards. Void decks are a space for community mingling and functions are often attended by neighbours across the ethnic spectrum.[1] Sometimes, events like weddings or funeral wakes are held in such places.
Small grocers, medical and dental clinics, bakeries and other shops are often located in void decks, especially in older apartment blocks. These amenities are often converted bomb shelters, while parts of the shelter would be kept usable in case of an attack occurring (many flats have a dual purpose room that doubles as an attack shelter). Most void decks also have bicycle racks, benches, and recreational tables for residents' use. It is common for void deck tables to have either a xiangqi or checkers board carved on them.
Void decks also facilitate the travelling through the apartment buildings on the ground level, rather than travelling around them.

The company extends the 'Sense & Simplicity' proposition to reposition itself on the health & well-being plank..
Sravanthi Challapalli
It's a warm and humid 7 a.m. by the beach as the newspersons attending Philips Electronics India's media event in Cavelossim, Goa, totter into the beachside restaurant for breakfast where company executives, despite the revelry of the previous night, are busy handing out glasses of juice from watermelon and carrots that are being swiftly shredded and juiced in a couple of juicers and blenders. These are some of the latest gadgets that Philips has just launched, signalling its transformation into a company that focuses on health and well-being and aims to offer solutions that incorporate 'Sense & Simplicity', its brand promise for the last couple of years.
In September 2007, Royal Philips Electronics announced the Vision 2010 strategy, whereby the company positioned itself as a market-driven, people-centric company. The company has also been redeploying €20 billion of capital that it got from various divestments over the years. At Philips Electronics India, this new focus meant simplifying its business into three core sectors of healthcare, lighting and consumer lifestyle and investing in organic and inorganic growth through acquisitions wherever it sees an opportunity. Last week at Goa, Philips also unveiled a slew of products in the decorative home lighting sector, with the promise of many more to come.
Solutions, not products
The Vision 2010 strategy emphasises solutions that are relevant to the diverse markets the €26-billion company operates in. Over the last couple of years, the company's Indian arm has launched several products made in India for India, or products from its global portfolio that have been re-engineered to suit Indian conditions better. The 'One Philips' approach has the company also changing the way it views its markets, giving equal weightage to both the B2B and B2C segments. The company sees several markets for the various products in these categories. For instance, hospitals could be a market for both its lighting and healthcare solutions, hotels a market for lighting and lifestyle solutions.
Says Murali Sivaraman, CEO, Philips Electronics India: "The market need not be a country; it could be Walmart, as it's a large global customer, or the Hyatt group, which is a large hospitality chain, or it could be the rural market. The DNA is: make yourself more and more relevant to the local market because that's where the customer is and that's where the competition is. In hi-tech companies where supply chains and product creation processes are more embedded globally, it often tends to become like, look, these are the portfolios I've got, but I can't reinvent the wheel so how do I bring the solution to the local market? That continues, because I can't do everything, I won't be leveraging the power of Philips globally, but in value spaces and adjacent spaces, or even if one brings in a product like the juicer, more and more let your local organisation be embedded with smart marketing talent who drive it through consumer insights."
These steps, as well as the appointment of a chief marketing officer to manage the three segments, and move managers from various cities to the new headquarters at Gurgaon to enable them to communicate and interact freely across divisional and functional boundaries, are all part of the company's moves to reposition itself. And regain its lost glory.
Turnover tales
As observers put it, Philips is one of the most innovative companies in the world but in India, despite its long presence, it has been outdone by the Chinese and the Korean companies because it hasn't invested in consumer understanding and doesn't think growth. The declared goal of Rs 5,000-crore turnover by 2008 has been late in coming, partly due to the slowdown and partly due to other reasons. Sivaraman says it's the decreasing market share in TVs that overwhelms the impression of the company's image – "it's such a small part of our category", and that "the company has consciously decided not to play the volumes game". "In lighting and healthcare we continue to grow, in lifestyle, kitchens and water we are growing. I could have easily reached the goal by plunging into it and bleeding my balance sheet and hiding that money somewhere in the group but that's not the intention."
B. A. Srinivasa, Director of the Chennai-based Vivek's, believes that a company should maintain its leadership position in the segments it is known for. "Transforming into a health and well-being is a good business strategy as there is more awareness and demand for such products but what you are known for, you should maintain," he says. The commoditisation of the TV sector is definitely a challenge but Philips should not lose in that category, he adds. "It's an important category in one's home and every family member is involved with it, unlike a washing machine where the husband and the children in the family may not be interested."
In 2007, Philips' turnover grew by 19 per cent to around Rs 2,700 crore. Due to the slowdown, it won't grow that much in 2008, though it will grow higher than the GDP (6.5-7 per cent), says Sivaraman. How is the company being affected by the slowdown? "As it has a large portfolio, some segments are hit and some not." In lighting, there's a huge demand for energy-efficient solutions, and while retail and housing have slowed down, the government continues to invest in infrastructure. In lifestyle, the first-time buyer is not deferring purchases but those upgrading are.
"The intention is to be a No 1 or 2 and we already are, in several segments," claims Sivaraman, rattling off their names, "in lighting, we're leaders in every space we operate in; in patient monitoring and critical care; in imaging systems, it's a play between GE, Siemens and Philips, and that's okay, because we bring our own different technologies; in home theatre, DVD, peripherals and accessories; in the kitchens space, we're No 1 nationally, though sometimes a regional brand could be stronger …"Related Stories:

Well, Kodak no longer makes Kodachrome. Also, it had a grain resolution approximately 21 megapixels on 35mm (hard to compare since obviously grain != pixels). The newer KAF-50100 sensor from Kodak is a 50.1MP and is used in the Hasselblad H4D-50 Digital SLR Camera.

30:Group urges spaying catsFebruary 02,2013
MIDDLESEX — Vermont Companion Animal Neutering is urging cat owners to "beat the heat" by spaying their female cats in advance of their heat cycles to prevent unwanted litters from being born this Spring.
According to a statement released by the nonprofit organization, animal shelters commonly refer to springtime as "kitten season" because that's when they receive the largest influx of unwanted litters.
During the entire month of February, the organization will spay female cats — or neuter male cats — for a special rate of $20 for all Vermont cat owners. Cat owners who wish to take advantage of this offer must mention the "Beat the Heat" promotion when they schedule their appointment at the organization's clinic in Middlesex.
For more information and to schedule an appointment, call 223-0034, email firstname.lastname@example.com, or go online to www.vt-can.org.MORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES Actress and comedian Anne Meara, whose comic work with husband Jerry Stiller helped...

CeBIT Open Source 2011 - Project Presentation PloneBy
During CeBIT 2011 open source projects such as Plone, enterprise content management system for professional use, will have the opportunity to showcase what is currently in active development.
Short and sweet: How would you describe your project in one or two sentences?
Plone is a powerful open source enterprise content management system for professional use in organizations and enterprises. With its large range of features, secure policy management, supporting workflow, accessibilty and powerful tools for system administration Plone is different from other CMS.
When did the project begin?
The first Plone release was in 2001.
How many active members does the project have?
Plone is among the top 2% of all open source projects worldwide, with 340 core developers and more than 300 solution providers in 57 countries.
Why was the project created?
Plone is the most sucessful project ever which was developed for the Zope application server. Zope and Plone are part of the innovative and vibrant Python community.
Why should a CeBIT visitor come to your booth?
Plone is not only a very powerful enterprise content management system. It is a very secure one, used by huge organisations with special security requirements like NASA, CIA and FBI.
Visitors interested in enterprise level content management, document management or knowledge management may not miss the opportunity to meet core developers and community members of Plone during the CeBIT.
Who do you make your software for?
Plone is designed to meet the requirements of small, medium and big enterprises and organisations like universities and research institutes. Plone is fully internationalized and can be used as an internet or intranet cms.
Where do you see your biggest current challenges?
There are no real problems. The development process of Plone is very well organized. The code is owned by the Plone foundation so we don't have to fear any buyout problems. The roadmap for the next two years is defined. And Plone is getting more popular.
If you could hire a full-time project developer now, what problem should he or she be ready to solve?
Plone is a modular system so there is no tough nut to crack. Improvement is achieved by many small incremental changes. To organize this process is a major task done by several members of the community. If the Plone Foundation had more money, it could pay the framework team, which decides about new features, or an employed release manager.
Under which license is the software currently offered?
Plone is distributed under the GNU Public License.

WARANGAL: All the three MLAs - belonging to TRS who turned up for the review meeting on Food-for-work scheme, walked out protesting what they called `indifferent' attitude of the officials.
Surprisingly, only the three MLAs attended the meeting. They are: Chennur MLA Dugyala Srinivasa Rao, Parkal MLA B. Sara Rani and Narasampet MLA K. Lakshma Reddy.
Even before the officials settled down for the meeting, the MLAs accused the officials of not keeping them informed about the official meetings.
Mr. Lakshma Reddy sought to know whether the district administration had any control over the village-level officials and sarpanches. He wanted to know how the beneficiaries were being selected and what was the criteria being adopted.
Mrs. Sara Rani alleged that some of the officials were discriminating and keeping them in dark about the schemes and works.
When the turn of Dugyala Srinivasa Rao came, he took the officials to task. Before leaving the meeting hall, he gave an earful to the officials including the district Collector.
Mr. Srinivasa Rao accused the officials of not acting promptly on the files and keeping them pending for long. The MLA threatened to take up the issue with the higher officials at the Secretariat.

It removes toxins, enhances our immune system, maintains a healthy digestion. All of these enable us to stay well and shed body mass.
No. 5: Lowers High Cholesterol
Medical studies have shown that beta (β) sitosterol can bring its high levels in your blood under control. This substance is a type of sterol with a similar chemical structure to cholesterol.

[You Might Want To Read This: Truth About Phen375: Reviews, Ingredients, Side Effects And Much More]
Drinking AV juice can keep you hydrated which is good for keeping your skin healthy.
Additionally, it gives your body the building blocks it needs to replenish old cells and regenerate.
No. 12: Cures Your Gums
Its benefits even extend to the area of your mouth. The reduction of inflammation and killing bad bacteria also apply to your gums, but there is evidence to show that aloe plant can help reduce its bleeding and cure ulcers.
Medical studies have shown that maintaining healthy gums is important to our overall well being. Food and pathogens can enter through your mouth but if we allow them to take up residence and grow, then we are giving them a gateway into our organism.
Extra Info: Aloe gel is starting to become more popular in toothpastes because of the benefits it provides to good dental care.
No. 13: Reduces Acne & Blemishes
AV juice combined with a gel is a great way to combat acne and blemishes on your skin. It works internally to supply vitamins and nutrients, reduces inflammation and fights bacteria and infection.
It also hydrates our bodies because of its high water content.
Its gel form when applied topically helps to:
- Make It Supple
- Heal Blemishes
- Moisturize
- Minimize Inflammation Due To Shaving Or Sun Burns
All of these improve the overall health of your skin and eliminate acne.
No. 14: Improves Hair Growth
If you've always wanted to have long silky hair then maybe you should try drinking some aloe vera.
- It assists to keep the pH balance in the correct range to boost growth.
- It also helps to retain moisture so that it can also grow.
If you apply this liquid directly to the scalp it might also help. There are two things that it does when applied to the scalp:
- It Clears Dead Skin Clogging Pores
- It Removes Sebum Which Can Lead To Baldness
Overall, both liquid and gel combined together can help you to have the full head of hair that you've always wanted to have.
Aloe vera juice has become the new super-food in the health food industry. Very few natural liquids have such a long list of benefits that this one has. No longer is this just a topical solution that we use to heal cuts, burns and bites. Now many natural substances are available so that we can take full advantage of this super-food.

After years of late-round drafting, two quick first round playoff exits, and a starting goaltender slow-burn drama, Vancouver Canucks General Manager Mike Gillis announced he was hitting the reset button. That reset started in Newark, New Jersey during the 2013 NHL Draft, ushering in a new wave of prospects, a coaching staff change, and a shift in expectations for the fanbase for the 2013-14 season.

Vancouver Canucks 2013 draft review
The Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey would be the setting for the Vancouver Canucks to leave an indelible mark, not just in regards to their own draft and future, but to the host city and their hockey fortunes as well.
Vancouver Canucks 2013 draft preview
After another quick exit from the Stanley Cup Playoffs at the hands of the San Jose Sharks, it is no secret that the winds of change are blowing in Vancouver. General Manager Mike Gillis has frequently used the term "reset" to describe the focus of this off-season for the Vancouver Canucks. In truth, anything short of fulfilling that term would be disastrous for Gillis, with local media already quoting the new phraseology. In addition, a restless fan base has voiced their opinion and made it clear that they will not be satisfied with the status quo.

No two remodeling projects are alike, but here's a broad look at what to expect during each phase. Two words will see you through: patience and planning.
A remodeling job requires at least one and possibly two professionals to draw a plan and execute it. For suggestions on choosing the pro or pros you need, see "Finding the Help You Need."
Obtain at least three written bids for your particular job, using identical plans and specifications. Do not automatically accept the lowest bid. Discuss each bid in detail with the person who submitted it, and make sure you understand the reason for any variations in price.
Beware of any bid substantially lower than the others. It probably indicates that the contractor has made a mistake or is not including all the work covered by the competitors' quotes. He or she may be planning to recoup the costs by charging you with change orders (a written order specifying any change from the agreed-upon plan that is not included in your contracted price) after the project has started.
The contract binds both you and the contractor to the project. The approved plans and specifications should be part of the document to help clarify the extent of work to be done and the responsibilities of both parties. Make sure your contract includes at least the following:
Unless you have a substantial legal background, it's a good idea to have a legal adviser look over the contract your contractor has prepared.
The details of your remodeling project will be unique to you and your contractor, and will probably be filled with ups and downs, delays and surprises. Almost surely there will be a demolition phase, followed by a time when the basics, from walls to wiring, are rebuilt or upgraded as needed. Then cabinets, appliances, and so forth will be installed, and paint, hardware, and other finishing touches can be put in place.
During the remodeling process, keep your relationship with the contractor and his or her workers as cordial as possible. It's normal for both sides to get on each other's nerves, but here are a few suggestions to keep things running smoothly.
When you and your contractor agree the job is done, set a time for a walk-through to ascertain that everything was completed as ordered. You already know your professional's policy regarding problems that arise after completion, but identify as many potential difficulties as possible before he or she leaves the site.
A few weeks down the road, show your appreciation for a job well done. A small gift is perfectly appropriate, as is a letter of thanks in which you offer to serve as a client reference for your professional's future jobs.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
John Mellencamp comes across as the kind of anti-establishment millionaire who believes in artistic freedom but knows things are better done his own way, who likes it ragged but also just so. Which, considering his track record, is eminently fair, but it's enough to give a genuine free spirit fits. Interested in self-documentation but drawn to unconventionality, he recruits photographer (and non-filmmaker) Kurt Markus to chronicle his 2009 concert tour and No Better Than This recording sessions as a rough-hewn work of independent art. "This film should be about you," Mellencamp insists, denying the inherent hypocrisy of his charge and evidently persuading Markus that he's sincere. The result is an amateurish travelogue that feels like a botched assignment, halfheartedly self-regarding and resentfully remote from the object of our fascination. The footage often looks great, captured as it was on Super 8 stock that abstracts visible light sources and gives skin an indefinite warmth. And the music, recorded on analog equipment at historic locations like Sun Studios and Robert Johnson's hotel room, turned out to be Mellencamp's strongest in decades. But Kurt's monotonous, diaristic voiceover drowns the film in armchair philosophizing, bloodless "this is so kickass" editorializing, and sarcastic swipes at his rock-star employer. Such failures to ingratiate only make Mellencamp's expertly calibrated folksiness more appealing, which might have been the plan all along.

Is there any truth to the fear of getting autism from the MMR or MMRV?
There is no valid scientific evidence that the measles vaccine, or any other vaccine, is the cause of autism. The possibility of an association between the measles vaccine and autism was proposed by Andrew Wakefield and colleagues in 1998. The research published by Wakefield was found to be flawed and actually forged, and the results have not been able to be repeated by other researchers. The Lancet, which published the original research in 1998, retracted the research publication in 2010. Since 1998, there have been numerous studies that have examined such an association. None of these studies have shown any risk of autism associated with the use of the vaccine. A recent study performed in Japan after the MMR vaccine was removed from the market showed that autism continued to increase after the vaccine was no longer being utilized. Although autism is a very serious disease that warrants good research to find out its many causes, not obtaining vaccinations is potentially dangerous and not supported by the best scientific data available today.
Who should not receive measles vaccinations?
The following groups of people should not receive measles vaccinations:
Patients with history of thrombocytopenic purpura or thrombocytopenia (low platelets) may be at increased risk, and immunization should be decided on a case-by-case basis.
Do people need to be revaccinated against measles if they are traveling to Europe?
Europe has been experiencing recent epidemics of measles. This is likely due to poor rates of vaccinations in many European countries. U.S. travelers should make sure that they have received at least two vaccinations against measles (MMR) when visiting Europe.

Received a used Toas crank machine about a year ago, that was in good shape but needed some serious cleaning. Last night finally had the time to calibrate and test out the machine. Frankly can not see how turning and manipulating the crank would be any faster than my ML100. Was also surprised at how changing the speed of cranking varied the tension. Had always heard and read this, but have to now wonder about anyone stringing who isn't paying attention to this. Going to play around some more today, but I was seeing up to a 3-5 lb tension difference simply by how fast or slow I operated the crank.......is this usual?
Thanks for the info, feel much better about buying a regular dropweight. I have used a crank / lockout for several years but didn't ever really test the tension difference based on the speed of turning the crank. It does seem like people really feel like a dropweight is more accurate / consistent.

The numbers speak for themselves: In 48 years at York High School in suburban Chicago, boys' cross country coach Joe Newton has led his Duke teams to 26 state championships, 11 runner-up finishes and three third-place trophies.
That's 40 podium finishes since 1960 in what has traditionally been one of the country's better states for producing distance runners. To put the program in national perspective, York won the inaugural Nike Team Nationals (NTN) championship in 2004 (competing as the Kroy Running Club) and is the only school to place in the top 10 in the first four NTN championships.
But the legacy of Newton and the York program isn't the gaudy numbers or all of the hardware crammed in the school's display cases; it's Newton's ability to foster personal interaction with nearly each and every one of his runners, develop young talent with consistent training methods and get each of his runners to buy into the program's relentless team-first mentality.
In any given fall, the 2,200-student school might boast 175 to 225 runners on the boys' cross country team (which long ago earned the program nickname "The Long Green Line"), and each one must check in before practice with his nickname – often one that Newton conjures up – and check out after the workout with a handshake from the coach. Otherwise, the team is everything.
"We're one big family, and I make sure each guy gets the tender loving care that they're not going to get in anywhere else in the school," he says. "Only seven guys can run at the state meet, so for us there might be 200 other guys who aren't in the top seven. But with our program, everyone is pulling for the team because we care about each other and the team is first."
Through the years Newton has coached plenty of top-tier runners, including state champions Sean McNamara (2004), Donald Sage (1999, also runner-up at the 1999 Foot Locker Cross Country Championships), Jim White (1984) and Ron Cracker (1975). But his success has been largely based on taking average or inexperienced runners and turning them into top-seven scorers.
"You just always wanted to run your best for him," says University of Oregon junior Eric Dettman, who helped Newton and the Dukes win title No. 25 in 2005. "He was an amazing coach, no matter if you were one of the top seven or just a kid trying to finish a race."

Big Dig workers froze a portion of soil so it wouldn't cave in during construction of the Boston tunnel in 2002, but now that soil has thawed -- and settled almost twice as much as engineers had expected. The thawing should be complete in a few years, when the residual water will be pumped out and concrete poured in. "So far, there has been no indications of stress or strain within the tunnel sections itself," said Acting Highway Chief Frank DePaola.

BirdLife species factsheet for Black-crowned Barwing Black-crowned Barwing Actinodura sodangorum occurs in Vietnam and Laos. It is currently listed as Vulnerable under criteria B1ab(i,ii,iii,iv,v) because it was known from only 2 areas, assumed to have a small range and population, and thought likely to be undergoing a continuing decline owing to widespread habitat loss and deforestation across its projected range. It was previously known from just seven associated localities in Kontum province in the western highlands of Vietnam, and one locality on the Dakchung Plateau, Xe Kong province in south-east Laos (BirdLife International 2001). However, it was recently discovered at approximately 1700m in western Xe Sap in Laos (T. Gray in litt. 2012), although it was not recorded elsewhere during play-back surveys and suitable habitat above 1500m is limited in the Xe Sap NPA (T. Gray in litt. 2012). Thus, it has been suggested that the population size is likely to be higher than the current estimate of 1,500-7,000 mature individuals (S. Mahood in litt. 2012). Also, despite its poorly known range, the population may not be in continuing decline; it may actually favour the loss of primary forest, and although some of the forest areas have been completely converted to agriculture, the human population density is low enough for field margins and forest patches to persist (S. Mahood in litt. 2012). If there is sufficient reason to suggest that this species is not restricted to ≤10 locations and/or the population, area and extent of occurrence and area, extent and/or quality of the species's habitat is not in continuing decline, this species could warrant downlisting to Near Threatened, approaching the thresholds for Vulnerable under criteria B1ab(i,ii,iii,iv,v) of the IUCN Red List. Further information is required on this species's estimated population size, distribution, range, trends and habitat requirements. Any additional comments on the proposed downlisting are also welcome. Reference: BirdLife International (2001) Threatened birds of Asia: the BirdLife International Red Data Book.
