Flying Trapeze + Hot Chocolate Bar
Trapeze School New York • Santa Monica, CA
June 7, 8, 14, 15, 21, 22, 29
What you get
- 2.5-Hour Class on Flying Trapeze, Lyra & Trampoline Acrobatics
- Unlimited DIY Hot Chocolate Bar + Assorted Doughnuts
- LivingSocial Headband
You've spent enough time circling the 2nd Street lot and idling on Lincoln to slink into a daydream of just flying off. Give your flights of fancy some real-life elevation with this deal: an early evening on the Santa Monica pier with trapeze flying, lyra, trampoline, and a hot chocolate bar.
Guiding the action will be Trapeze School New York, which has been cultivating a bicoastal acrobatic following for more than a decade while also appearing in popular travel magazines. You'll spend the first hour on the trapeze, hanging from your feet on a fast-moving crossbar before connecting hand-in-hand with your approaching mid-air partner. (Fear not -- there will be a safety net.) The next hour will be split between the large trampoline and the lyra. Expect to grab big air as instructors give you pointers on how to approach flips, twists, and other dramatic moves.
After landing a perfect dismount, you'll trundle toward the DIY hot chocolate and marshmallow counter -- complete with assorted doughnuts to pair -- catching the sun's golden orb tuck itself behind the twinkling Pacific.
So much fun! The instructors were very thorough, experienced, and nice, so I never felt I was in danger. I got more classes and I can't wait to go back.

Manchester United fans bid farewell to their long serving defender Nemanja Vidic, who played his last match at Old Trafford against Hull City. Though he started the match on the bench, Vidic was introduced into the match having only spent 22 minutes on the bench, to replace the injured Phil Jones. United won the match 3-1.
Nemanja Vidic is a strong and powerful centre-back, with impressive abilities in the air and a major threat in set-pieces on the opposite end. Agressive and imposing by nature, Vidic is a no-nonsense footballer who has been heart of United's defence through out the years.
Nemanja Vidic signed for Manchester United on 25th December 2005, and joined the Red Devils on 5th January 2006 after he was granted the work permit, completing a £7 million move from the Russian team Spartak Moscow. Vidic turned out to be a huge bargain for the Red Devils as he performed well and bagged a Premier League medal in his first full season (2006-07). At the time of the 2006 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign, Nemanja Vidic was a part of the 'FAMOUS FOUR' of Serbian National Team defence, that conceded just 'ONE' goal. Sadly, Vidic missed the 2006 FIFA World Cup campaign due to an injury.
After overcoming a slow start in the Premier League, his partnership with Rio Ferdinand in the centre of defence was one of the best in European football and was also instrumental for the team as United went on to win three consecutive Premier League titles (2006/07, 2007/08, 2008/09). During that period, Vidic was also a part of the United squad that defeated Chelsea FC in the 2008 UEFA Champions League Finals, helping them secure their 3rd Champions League trophy. In the 2008/09 season, Vidic was pivotal in Manchester United's defence, who went on a record run of 14 consecutive clean sheets in the Premier League. Vidic was shortlisted for the PFA Player Of the Year, but it was later awarded to his teammate, Ryan Giggs. But that season, Vidic was named as Manchester United Fans' Player of the Year & Players' Player of the Year. He also booked a spot in PFA Team of the Year from 2007 to 2009.
In July 2010, Vidic extended his contract with Manchester United, ending a long running speculation of him joining Real Madrid. That same season, Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed that Nemanja Vidic will take over from Gary Neville as the team captian on a permenant basis. On 30th October 2010, Vidic's goal against Tottenham Hotspur was the 1000th goal to be scored on Old Trafford. That season, Vidic vs sent off in the match against Chelsea F.C. for a foul on Ramires, but he managed to take a reveng against Chelsea F.C. with a goal which ended their title aspirations. The victory over Chelsea put Manchester United closer to a record breaking 19th Premier League title.
Twisting his knee in a Champions League clash against F.C. Basel, Vidic went of to miss the rest of the season. Returning from the injury in August 2012, Vidic again injured his knee on 25th September 2012 and missed an additional eight weeks. But he was a fighter. Making a comeback from his injury, Vidic was full of confidence and even scored a goal off Patrice Evra's header against Liverpool at Old Trafford. Manchester United won their record 20th Premier League title, finishing 11 points over their city rivals, Manchester City.
This season, it came as a shock for all Manchester United fans when they found out that Nemanja Vidic would be leaving the English champions to join Italian giants Internazionale. This news was announced by the Italian club on 5th March 2014. The transfer of Vidic is a huge blow to Manchester United's defence, who are already struggling to perform up to the mark.
Here is United's left-back Patrice Evra's reaction on Nemanja's transfer: "It's painful to lose Vida. For me, he is a great centre-back. When you see a player like Vidic leaving the club, you feel really sad. We joined the club together. I remember the first game was so hard. In one match, we played in the reserves together. We were so poor! It was a difficult moment but we stuck together. We've been in the same hotel going into training and, together, we've won the same trophies. I'm really sad to lose him."
Nemanja Vidic told #mufc fans: "You've been fantastic to me over the years. Thank you from the bottom of my heart." pic.twitter.com/3I9trwO2kC
— Manchester United (@ManUtd) May 6, 2014
Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic: "It was hard in many ways, because it was my last game at Old Trafford, we did not have a great year as it was my first year not celebrating a trophy. It was a tough season.
"This is maybe the best part of my life. I have three kids, won lots of trophies and have been loved by fans. The fans showed their class when we didn't do well this season.
"I was very emotional. I have to say my heart will always be at this club. I have spent so many years here and been part of such a good time and worked with so many great people.
"It is the board to decide but Ryan has a real talent to be the manager and a good manager. If he is not successful this time then in the future he should be considered to be manager of this club."
Though Vidic is on his way out of Old Trafford, he isn't leaving empty handed. He will be leaving with 5 Premier League titles, 1 Champions League trophy, 3 League Cup Medals, 1 FIFA Club World Cup, 5 Community Shields, 2 Premier League Player of the Year awards and milions of hearts.

Patients with head and neck cancers have an increased chance of developing a second primary tumor of the upper aerodigestive tract.[6,7] A study has shown that daily treatment of these patients with moderate doses of isotretinoin (13-cis-retinoic acid) for 1 year can significantly reduce the incidence of second tumors. No survival advantage has yet been demonstrated, however, in part due to recurrence and death from the primary malignancy. An additional trial has shown no benefit of retinyl palmitate or retinyl palmitate plus beta-carotene when compared to retinoic acid alone.[8][Level of evidence: 1iiDii]
The rate of curability of cancers of the lip and oral cavity varies depending on the stage and specific site. Most patients present with early cancers of the lip, which are highly curable by surgery or by radiation therapy with cure rates of 90% to 100%. Small cancers of the retromolar trigone, hard palate, and upper gingiva are highly curable by either radiation therapy or surgery with survival rates of as much as 100%. Local control rates of as much as 90% can be achieved with either radiation therapy or surgery in small cancers of the anterior tongue, the floor of the mouth, and buccal mucosa.[9]
Moderately advanced and advanced cancers of the lip also can be controlled effectively by surgery or radiation therapy or a combination of these. The choice of treatment is generally dictated by the anticipated functional and cosmetic results of the treatment. Moderately advanced lesions of the retromolar trigone without evidence of spread to cervical lymph nodes are usually curable and have shown local control rates of as much as 90%; such lesions of the hard palate, upper gingiva, and buccal mucosa have a local control rate of as much as 80%. In the absence of clinical evidence of spread to cervical lymph nodes, moderately advanced lesions of the floor of the mouth and anterior tongue are generally curable with survival rates of as much as 70% and 65%, respectively.[9,10]

The ascorbic acid will help me with it being vit. C a vitamin that helps to heal but also it will add acid to help digest the meal.
IF my stomach starts to hurt with the zymes and C I'm just going to drink alittle baking soda in water to neutralize for the time being. I don't know if this will work I'll see. I really think I need help with digesting foods. Its not good for food to sit in your stomach or intestines. If you stomach acid is low your suseptable to bacteria, overgrowth of yeast, viral illnesses.
Also indigested food that didn't get digested in the stomach goes into the gut and causes all kinds of problems. When the flora is compromised the immune system weakens, destructive bacteria or yeast are not held in check. Then colonies of the harmful organisms can cause dysbiosis.
Without friendly flora the intestinal lining can become malnourished, you don't make vit. B12, and the destructive microbes that produce toxic chemicals will cause tissue damage in the G.I. tract. The barrier gets leaky and all toxins and bacteria can now seep into our bloodstream.
Well I could continue but you get the idea. You might want to check into the thread "candida". I'm going to be joining as well once I get over this cold I have.

Nope you're not the only one. I used to get bad hunger pains followed by the shakes and irritability, followed by headache or migraine. That was if i didn't eat every 2-3 hours or so. I can now go 4-6 hours between meals, and I don't ever get that severe hunger I used to have. I don't miss it!
That is true...I forgot about those feelings. Much worse then feeling like I do now. I don't hardly eat any grains now. I don't have carrots or potatoes or legumes for that matter. Its no wonder I'm never hungry. I do get cravings though. Like warm choclate chip cookies out of the oven. If I do make them I'll eat so many I usually can't eat supper.

Now when I actually feel hunger is not as intense an experience and I can actually ignore it and continue with what I was doing. There have been days when I just haven't noticed that I'm hungry and have gone eight hours without eating.

We have several Agave plants, some red Bourgenvillas, purple Sage bushes and a couple pink Oilander bushes.

Our permanent home is in BC, Canada where we live in the Gulf Islands. Our property manager, Andrea Bidwell, lives here in the Parkwood Ranch Community and is available to help our clients when we are away. Andrea is a school nurse and a trained EMT.

"Our property is clean,comfortable and updated. The laundry is set up in the garage as is the style in the Southwest. The home easily accommodates two couples or extended family who want to visit for a couple weeks with grandchildren. There is lots of room with it's ample closets and drawers in the Captain style Queen size beds. If you plan to cook, the kitchen has many utensils, pots, a ceramic slow cooker, a blender and roasting pans, Corning ware and an air bake cookie sheet. It is close to a variety of shopping modes and restaurants. We enjoy going to Valley Liquidator Sales, Art Festivals, Dog Shows, Bird Shows, Garden Shows, and Car Shows. The 900 sq ft back yard Putting Green provides practice for golfers and entertainment for patio parties. My husband goes to the local Legions to play Euchre twice a week and enjoy a pint. I enjoy walking in the neighborhood where I can try to identify many different kinds of desert landscaping. Being a Snowbird myself, I often walk in the cool of the evening and feel quite safe. Neighbours are friendly in our quiet neighbourhood. One of our regular clients enjoys going to the local Shooting Range. Others spend their time at many local Golf Courses. There are churches, and parks with playground equipment for grandchildren nearby. Some of our clients have enjoyed the local Square Dancing and Bingo. We are not far from Superstition Mt if you are into Hiking. There are 2 bicycles if you would like to cycle. There is also a set of men's golf clubs in the garage. There is an automatic garage door opener and an ADT security system for your comfort."

I'm new to xen and even newer to libvirt, so have a bit of a learning curve.I suggest the following: I make all the libvirt specific infrastructure work to plug the new calls which is where I will be the most efficient, and I let you plug code to talk to Xen which is where you will be more up to date and able to test, okay ?For the topology information, I assume that this will be a call through xend, similar to xenDaemonNodeGetInfo. It would seem natural to somehow extend the xenDaemonNodeGetInfo with this additional information except that you suggested having the output in XML. Can you explain why you chose XML?We have to maintain 100% ABI & API compatability against older releasesof libvirt. This means that once we add a function, struct or other definition in the header files it cannot ever be changed again. So thismeans we can't change the virNodeInfo struct to add NUMA info. For this reason we tend to keep struct's just for use in APIs where the performance is critical, or data set is unlikely to ever change. So far we only use structs for virDomainInfo, virNodeInfo, virSchedParam and virVcpuInfo at this time. For more descriptive data we format information into an XML document. This makes it very easy to add new XML elements and attributes to represent new data items. The same compatability rules apply to XML though - once we add an attribute or element it can never be removed from the spec. Currently we think putting the NUMA info into XML is the best approach since it is not performance critical. There are two ways to implement it with Xen - either talk to XenD and extract the topology there, or make direct hypercalls. For now it is probably easiest to talk to XenD, since this isn't performance critical.Agreed, we could use the hypervisor calls but that means extending that module which is already a bit painful for all the backward compatibility workaround. Xend access should be simpler, at least in a first implementation. I will try to come later today with a first patch defining the frameworkand leaving functions to fill for the new calls in the xend_internal.c backend.Daniel
That sounds fine. Thanks for the offer, Daniel! -- Elizabeth Kon (Beth) IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: eak us ibm com

Let's fix the fixable part of Obamacare
There are parts of any program run at the federal level that have to be tweaked, and it's obvious one involves the sign-up period for the Affordable Care Act. We call on all involved to make the changes to overlap the sign-up period with the federal income tax filing period since proof of insurance and the penalties for not having insurance are handled through tax returns. (February 17, 2015, Page 4)
Why we need the Oxford Medical Ministries Clinic
Dr. Jim Rayner uses a "Your Turn" column to explain the importance of the Oxford Medical Ministries Clinic to local residents as it provides health care to this who can't get insurance through their work or through the Affordable Care Act. (November 11, 2014, Page 4)
Still trying to figure out Affordable Care Act
Most folks believe all deserve affordable health care, and most want and hope that the Affordable Care Act works. Editor Don Whitten sees some good things about the national program but still wonders about its viability in light of recent suggestions that many workers may opt to work less or retire early because they can get cheaper healthcare that must be subsidized somewhere.

Radical plan might get lawmakers working

what?? is this still in production? , i was one of the first modders in this mod team back in 2006
Mysteries of the Sith is set in a period five years beyond Kyle Katarn's dramatic victory over the seven Dark Jedi he battled in Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II. Kyle's reputation as a skilled Jedi Knight has attracted Mara Jade, one-time assassin, smuggler and Jedi Knight-in-training under Emperor Palpatine. Hoping to complete her apprenticeship, Mara joins Kyle on the remote outpost of Altyr 5. Kyle soon discloses that he has discovered information about a previously unknown Sith temple and must travel to it to investigate the mysterious forces it holds.
This project aims to re-create the classic Lucasarts Game 'Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Mysteries of the Sith' in Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. All of the Maps, Levels, Characters, NPC's, Weapons etc will all be done as accurate as possible from the original game released in 1998.
Players will battle new creatures throughout Mysteries of the Sith, including a the rancor. Other creatures range from assassin and torture droids to pirate raiders and Sith undead. The weaponry in Mysteries of the Sith includes a carbonite gun, designed to immobilize enemies with freeze pellets; a BlasTech BH-35 electroscope, for long-range engagements; a repeating blaster cannon, for heavy firepower; seeker rail detonators; flash bombs; remote sequencers; and a BlasTech DL-44 heavy blaster pistol. Mysteries of the Sith Mod will feature 13 immersive singleplayer levels.

So its been forever and a day since we have posted anything so heres the plan. As of right now we are in the works to try to get the first 3 levels out and then thats it. While we have made some pretty good progress with textures, characters etc, there really isnt much time to work on a hobby project. With that being said, once we get to where we feel its good to be released we will release the demo and all the assests that we have put together thus far. It will be open for the publics use and as long as credit is given do with it what you will. Maybe someone will continue on, and maybe not. Who knows, but there is no time line and assuming we can't get a working 3 level demo then we will just release what we have.

Praveen Kopalle's research demonstrates that so-called "emergent consumers" can help create more appealing products.
To function best, a "free market" requires the support of institutions. Without laws that provide for the enforcement of contracts, people are less likely to engage in trade, and beneficial exchanges go unrealized. Without a means to protect intellectual property, inventors fear to reveal their ideas and technological progress is suppressed.
Katharina Lewellen and her colleagues find that managers are effective at identifying mispricing of their own securities and are willing to exploit it by selling or buying securities using the corporate account.
Electronic medical records are in the news, with President Obama calling for the medical records of every American to be digitized by 2014, and the stimulus package providing $19 billion to make it happen.
Forty years ago, economist William Sharpe rattled Wall Street when he balanced risks and rewards mathematically. At first seen as heretical and later as "commanding," his capital asset pricing model (CAPM) earned him the Nobel prize in 1990. Succeeding generations of distinguished scholars have continued to tweak the model and debate it, among them Tuck Professor Jonathan Lewellen.
Why are some firms more successful than others? How do firms differ and why does it matter? In strategy research, the issue of heterogeneity among firms is critical. If all firms were the same, and they all operated in a similar business context, they would all be equally successful. Since this isn't true, then either the firms themselves have to be different or the business context in which they operate must be.
Richard D'Aveni and former Tuck professor Koen Pauwels have come up with a new method to uncover the nature and structural changes of competition in fast-changing markets.

Why did you choose this product?
I fell in love with a ring almost just like this one that was $$$+. I just couldn't justify the price at the time. I was so happy when I saw this look-a-like and I couldn't imagine what it would actually look like. It looks exactly like the picture. Some of the stones are darker and none of them look like diamonds - more like grayish stones, but it still sparkles in the light and for the price I can be happy enough. I wish I knew how the finish would hold up over time but I'll give it a chance....

Good imitation that works

Not bad for the price
Its a fine ring for a young girls first piece of "real" jewelry, or for an adult who wont wear it everyday. Price cannot be beat. I ordered two, just to have for a last minute gift and to compare the diamonds quality. Diamond quality is inconsistent, but order two for the price and see which you like best.Read More
This ring is more beautiful in hand than it is in picture you have to see it to appreciate itRead More
Diamond Ring
This ring is so beautiful. I cant believe I got it for such a good price. It is now my favorite ring.Read More
I hesitated to order because of previous reviews. When I got this, I couldnt believe how pretty it is! It sparkles and shines the way I hoped it would. I couldnt be happier, and will order more from O!Read More
just ok
The best thing was that it arrived quickly. However there could have been more consistancy with the color of the diamonds. that would have made the ring look better.Some stones are much darker, and some diamonds are just dirty in their setting, and thats not usually what I'd get from Overstock. So overall just ok, not the best purchase but for the price I'll keep it.Read More
stone fell out after 9 months. I know that the ring is inexpensive but I would expect it to last me more than 9 months and since I did not purchase a warranty on this ring, overstock could not do anything for me. So now I am out of money and a ring. Boo on whoever made this ring.Read More
Questions & Answers
I have ordered two of these in the past and they look really nice with another ring sandwiched in between the two. However I needed the ring closer to the knuckle to be a larger size to pull this look off. At this great price I will have three diamond rings. I have created this big look for a really great price. OMG is all I can say.
I saw this ring elsewhere and loved the look and bling of it but it was sold out. When I saw it it here I decided to take a chance and see it the quality would be similar. I hope so!

Someone said someone else once wrote or said:
A government is a government is a government.
A crime is a crime is a crime.
Grammatically, how to interpret them?
Thanks a lot.
Wow! What a cool (!!!) question!
1. I was able to find a scholarly book on the Web. The author even draws a diagram to explain it, but it was too difficult for
me to understand.
2. He says that such sentences are an example of clause chaining.
3. He discusses "A lie is a lie is a lie."
a. He says that the noun phrase ("a lie") functions simultaneously [at the same time] as the predicate
nominative in one clause and as the subject of the following clause.
i. I guess that he means the second "a lie" is the subjective complement of the first "a lie" and is also the subject to which
the third "a lie" refers.
b. The scholar writes: "I would say that the clausal repetition renders the expression emphatic."
4. You can read his analysis by going to Google and typing in these words:
Grammar and Conceptualization page 168 a lie is a lie
This 1999 book was written by Dr. Ronald W. Langacker.
Thanks a million for the question. I learned the term "clause chaining" today -- thanks to you and Dr. Langacker.
A crime is a crime is a crime. is supposed to be Crime is crime is crime., according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Thatcher. Accordingly, we may also say
Government is government is government.
Lie is lie is lie.
specially in spoken expression without indefinite article.
1. So are the crime in A crime is a crime is a crime. and the government in A government is a government is a government. Both are countable here, too, like the lie in A lie is a lie is a lie.
2. I wrote "... we may also say...". It doesn't exclude either.
3. What I was told was Thatcher once said "A crime is a crime is a crime." It turns out to be "Crime is crime is crime."
They're variations on a line from a Gertrude Stein poem: A rose is a rose is a rose A rose is a rose is a rose
I personally feel that there is a difference.
1. Suppose a man steals a donut, and the court wants to send the man to prison for a year. Someone might say that stealing a donut is not really a crime. And the judge might answer: A crime is a crime is a crime. (Stealing a donut is a crime just as stealing a diamond ring is a crime. The amount of money makes no difference.)
2. On the other hand, I can understand why Lady Thatcher said what she is reported to have said. I believe that you have to understand the situation in the United Kingdom at the time. Some people (I have read) felt that there was too much lawlessness. So Lady Thatcher would not have been referring to one single crime (such as stealing a donut) but to the overall general climate. At that time, here in the United States, many people were also calling for more "law and order."
(not a teacher)
Sentences like these remind you of the limits of written language. The stresses and emphases of speech lend another dimension of meaning to a word, phrase, or sentence.
I'm afraid the actual meaning of the patten under discussion lies more often than not at the following sentence, nowadays, besides the overall general climate or context. What Thatcher actually said, for instance, is "Crime is crime is crime; it is not political."

Dec. 10, 2010 - Another mountain conquered by the U.S. Air Force!
Here's the latest report from Capt. Rob Marshall via Capt. Mark Uberuaga:
"Our team made an 8-hour push to summit Mt. Vinson at 1720 (5:30 pm) today, December 9th. Rob said the weather could not have been better. Temps were approximately -10F to -15F, and the wind was calm.
"Our team completed a variation of the regular route and climbed the Vinson headwall to a great ridge that took them to the top...at the summit, the team flew Old Glory, the USAF flag and the Special Operations Warrior Foundation banner.
"Rob wants to thank all of the donors who supported them on this epic journey. The legendary climbing guide Phil Ershler and Rob teamed up and cranked out 110 push-ups on the summit!When I spoke to the guys, they were getting ready to rack out at Camp 2. They plan on getting a brief rest tonight, and then they are going to pack up and head down the fixed ropes to base camp. From there, they will catch the Twin Otter to Union Glacier and then fly off the ice.
Rob said he's ready for a hot shower. Graydon said today was awesome.
NOTE: Thank you to Capt. Uberuaga for providing the USAF 7 Summits updates. And congrats to the team for achieving its goal!

I'm just thinking that yesterday's survey is meaningless.
Really? Totally meaningless? So if you knew that there was a survey done last year on a boat you were thinking of buying, you wouldn't want to even see it? I wouldn't rely on an old survey to make a purchase; I mean you don't know the provence or potential bias of whoever wrote it, and all sorts of things can happen in a year. But you wouldn't even want to see it? At all? No interest whatsoever?
I disagree. I would definitely want to see it. I would use it as one more tool in my evaluation of the boat. I would compare the old survey to my survey to see if conditions had changed, and if repairs had been made due to the earlier survey. When I bought my boat, my surveyor interviewed the owner and used that information in preparing the final document. I would want to see if the story the owner was telling had changed from last year to this year. Maybe the owner told the first surveyor about rebedding the stanchions, but that story "slipped his mind" this time around.
I can think of many more uses for an older survey, but I don't want to beat a dead horse. I think that any survey will have information that may be useful in your evaluation.

The Army was called out in Bhimajuli in northern Assam's Sonitpur district on Monday to stage a flag march after Sunday night's terror attack which sparked off violent protests in the affected village and the nearby areas.
Angry residents, armed with spears, machetes, sticks, bows and arrows, took to the streets on Monday in search of militants of the Ranjan Daimari-led anti-talks faction of the National Democratic Front of Boroland (NDFB), suspected to be behind the Sunday night massacre, in which 12 villagers, including women and minors, were killed.
Tension gripped the district on Monday after miscreants took advantage of the people's protests and set on fire abandoned houses belonging to the Bodo tribe, official sources said. The Army, paramilitary troops and police contingents fanned out to sensitive areas to prevent the flaring up of ethnic tension.
The death toll in the terror attack went up to 12 after a girl died of bullet injuries on way to the Gauhati Medical College and Hospital. Eight-year-old Raju Pradhan was declared dead on arrival. The condition of at least four of the 13 injured is stated to be serious.
Two more persons were injured when the police blank fired thrice to disperse residents who attacked the police station at Balichang. They torched the vehicle of the Circle Officer and attacked the escort vehicle of the convoy of Director-General of Police Sankar Barua.
Principal Secretary, Home, Subhash Das, told The?Hindu that the Army had been called outto prevent escalation of violence in the affected areas, stage flag maches to instil confidence in the people and assist the civil administration in bringing back normality.
A three-member ministerial team and the DGP, who rushed to the spot on Monday morning for a first-hand assessment of the situation and met the families of the victims and the injured, had to return to Balichang police station as villagers blocked the way to the affected villages.
The ministerial team included Revenue Minister Bhumidhar Barman, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Bharat Narah and Health Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. They were joined by Fisheries Minister Nurjamal Sarkar, who has been camping in the area following the attack. Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi reviewed the situation and asked the administration to take all steps to apprehend the militants behind the massacre.
Dr. Barman announced an ex gratia of Rs.3 lakh to the kin of the victims, Rs.50,000 to each person with serious injuries and Rs.10,000 for those with minor injuries. The Ministers also announced that the government would bear the cost of the treatment of the injured.
PTI adds:
Gorkha body condemns Assam killing
The Bharatiya Gorkha Parisangh, an apex body of Gorkhas, on Monday condemned the killing of seven Nepalese-speaking people in Sonitpur district of Assam on Sunday night and criticised the Tarun Gogoi government for failing to give them security.
"The BGP condemns the killing of innocent Nepalese-speaking people by the NDFB militants in Sonitpur district because the victims did not pay extortion," BGP Working President CK Shrestha told reporters here.
He said that the Gogoi government could not escape its responsibility for the killings as it failed to provide security despite public knowledge about the militant outfits demand for extortion and threats.
The massacre could have been avoided if the state government had intensified security measures for the migrant people, Mr. Shrestha said.

NASA Spacecraft Captures Video of Asteroid Approach
WASHINGTON, June 13, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Scientists working with NASA's Dawn spacecraft have created a new video showing the giant asteroid Vesta as the spacecraft approaches this unexplored world in the main asteroid belt.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20081007/38461LOGO)
The video loops 20 images obtained for navigation purposes on June 1. The images show a dark feature near Vesta's equator moving from left to right across the field of view as Vesta rotates. Images also show Vesta's jagged, irregular shape, hinting at the enormous crater known to exist at Vesta's south pole.
To see the video, visit:
The images were obtained by a framing camera during a 30-minute period and show about 30 degrees of a rotation. The pixel size in these images is approaching the resolution of the best Hubble Space Telescope images of Vesta.
"Like strangers in a strange land, we're looking for familiar landmarks," said Jian-Yang Li, a Dawn participating scientist from the University of Maryland, College Park. "The shadowy spot is one of those – it appears to match a feature, known as 'Feature B,' from images of Vesta taken by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope."
Before orbiting Vesta on July 16, Dawn will gently slow down to about 75 mph (120 kph). NASA is expecting to release more images on a weekly basis, with more frequent images available once the spacecraft begins collecting science at Vesta.
"Vesta is coming more and more into focus," said Andreas Nathues, framing camera lead investigator, based at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Katlenburg-Lindau, Germany. "Dawn's framing camera is working exactly as anticipated."
The mission is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., for the agency's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. Dawn is a project of the directorate's Discovery Program, managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. UCLA is responsible for overall Dawn mission science. Orbital Sciences Corp. of Dulles, Va., designed and built the Dawn spacecraft. The framing cameras were developed and built under the leadership of the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Katlenburg-Lindau, Germany.
The German Aerospace Center (DLR) Institute of Planetary Research in Berlin made significant contributions in coordination with the Institute of Computer and Communication Network Engineering in Braunschweig. The framing camera project is funded by the Max Planck Society, DLR and NASA.
The video from Dawn also will air Monday afternoon on NASA Television's Video File. For NASA TV downlink information, schedules and links to streaming video, visit:

Critical Review by Geoffrey O'Brien
SOURCE: "Cowboys and Nothingness," in The Village Voice, Vol. XXXI, No. 280, July 15, 1986, p. 48.
In the following review, O'Brien discusses Blood Meridian within the context of the Western genre, noting differences and similarities between the two.
The Western, being the simplest of genres, is also the most protean, ever ripe for new variations. For a moment in the '60s, Sam Peckinpah and Sergio Leone appeared to have arrived at its logical dead end, but writers today are taking a fresh look at the genre. It attracts like a power source, a link to the limitless. Reinventing the Western means re-inventing America, turning the creation epic upside down to come up with a different end-product: a new Texas, a new Mexico, a new definition of reality. Notions of the real, of course, change with alarming swiftness, so that The Wild Bunch or For a Few Dollars More, billed in their day as cynical anti-Westerns, now seem as soaringly romantic as any of their predecessors. All that empty space is what does it. Almost as mechanically as a drug, desert and canyon and prairie elevate the squalidest occurrences into ritual splendors. Set a third-rate racketeer against infinite sky and he becomes Wyatt Earp. No wonder writers and filmmakers can't stay away from a genre that does half their work for them.
In Blood Meridian Cormac McCarthy reduces the Western to its essential components: landscape and killing. From the classic Hollywood variety he has preserved the hypnotic expansiveness of wide-screen vistas and the technical precision of large-scale bloodletting; and to compensate for the absence of a Fordian or Hawksian mise-en-scene, he has forged a distinctive prose which might be described as Hardboiled Biblical, a weird blend of cold-eyed photo-realism and prophetic diction. Reading the book is like watching a slowly unwinding painted panorama. From a distance it resembles a magnificent canvas by Bierstadt or Church, but as you peer more closely at its clefts and dells you find them crammed with hacked bodies and discarded torture implements: "The dead lay awash in the shallows like the victims of some disaster at sea and they were strewn along the salt foreshore in a havoc of blood and entrails. Riders were towing bodies out of the bloody waters of the lake, and the froth that rode lightly on the beach was a pale pink in the rising light. They moved among the dead harvesting the long black locks with their knives and leaving their victims rawskulled and strange in their bloody cauls." What disturbs is not so much the violence as its lack of resonance, the way the immense surroundings swallow up suffering.
As Blood Meridian traces the depredations and torments of a band of scalp-hunters roaming the Tex-Mex border in the 1840s, its welter of skirmishes and massacres feels like a single moment impossibly distended, a moment of absolute pain preparing to give way to nothingness. In most Westerns, violence is climactic; here it's as predictable as the passage of time, and the moments of high drama occur when the slaughtering is unexpectedly suspended. During the rest of the book, killers kill and are killed with such rolling repetition that the horrors begin to seem incidental twitchings of an essentially immobile landscape. McCarthy's drifters are "like beings provoked out of the absolute rock … in a time before nomenclature was." For them the articulations of language amount to no more than "the dull boom of rock falling somewhere far below them in the awful darkness inside the world." A mindless life-force asserts itself through violence in the face of imminent extinction.
The book imposes itself by sheer duration and reiteration. Its long-winded cadences testify that there is no limit either to the killing or to the barren territories through which the killers ride, stagger, and ultimately crawl. Dialogue is guttural and terminally inarticulate. When the lone survivors of a Comanche raid encounter each other amid gutted torsos and handfuls of viscera, they converse about as expressively as McCarthy's people ever do: "What kind of indians was them?" "I dont know." "Damn if they aint about a caution to the christians." These minimal exchanges are set off by the baroque profusion of language that McCarthy lavishes on their surroundings. The life of the book resides in its rocky underpinnings and spiky vegetation. On a single page we move among "gray lava dust" and "scalloped canyon walls," through "fallen rock and scoria and deadly looking bayonet plants," into "an old reliquary of flintknappings and ratchel"—pausing only for a moment by "a bush that was hung with dead babies"—to end up at "a village on the plain where smoke still rose from the ruins and all were gone to death."
This dominance of background pushes cowboy-picture aesthetics to their limit: between precisely described, usually violent action and engulfing, luridly beautiful settings, there's no room for any privacy of thought or feeling. The human interior ceases to exist. But if Blood Meridian stakes out a domain of emptiness, the emptiness is dense, messy, a tangle of desperate and dying creatures. In a previous novel, Child of God, McCarthy dealt with similar material, but there the action was restricted to an east Tennessee backwater and most of the atrocities stemmed from a single deranged person. Blood Meridian encompasses all places and all people, going beyond the hermetic rigors of genre toward a theoretically unfinishable cavalcade, like a camera panning across an endless field of corpses.
In fact the book doesn't really end; it dissolves, in a manner I don't find altogether satisfactory. With most of the cast annihilated, the last few chapters threaten to veer from hallucinatory realism into a more allegorical mode. The Judge, a murderous intellectual madman who has quietly dominated the band of killers, takes on an increasingly supernatural air, and the drooling idiot who accompanies him across desert wastes evokes an unfortunate Shakespearean parallel—unfortunate because an appeal to literature can only weaken the unmediated intensity of the bulk of the novel. But whatever one makes of McCarthy's mode of withdrawal from his nightmare, the book's termination is curiously unimportant. The hell of endlessness McCarthy has taken us through is enough to convince us that if the book did not end inadequately it could not end at all. Blood Meridian has no more destination than its blood-spattered protagonists, only a relentless forward movement. The terror of that blind and arbitrary process—a process also known as history—soaks into every page. Like all Western heroes, McCarthy's mercenaries ride off into the sunset: and the sunset devours them.

Before the Jones title shot and before the Gustafsson got his push.
Davis will never be champ. He's just a grinder for the most part. I still don't understand how he got the nod over Machida either.
With that said. He easily grinds Texeira to a UD. If he really must fight, I'd say what about Bader? I mean there's no available fight to build him up anyway. Or if Gus backs out with an injury, let him face Manuwa.
Agreed though Bader is about the best name he can call out at this point and that's what he should be doing,
This is all Machida's fault.
So has Jones ever pulled out of a fight? No? Okay good, im glad all of us outside of Phil Davis could figure that one out.

Antibiotic Resistance
Thursday, September 19, 2013
Dr. Michael Bell, deputy director of the Centers for Disease Control's division of health care quality promotion, talks about the CDC's new report on antibiotic resistance, which found that at least 2 million Americans contract diseases caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria every year, and that at least 23,000 die from those infections. This is the first time the effects of these infections have been quantified.

At last someone is looking into the problem of microbial resistance and, in general, microbial bacteria. The 4 allergists I have visited simply prescribe creams and Prozac. Also, has anyone who is paid to support public health looked into the issues of GMO's. Particularly Chinese cotton, could the new genetically modified pest-killing substances found in cotton grown in China be something I'm allergic to? The toxin has been engineered to derive from Bacillus Thuringiensis (Bt). I do not have the intelligence nor time to devote to my condition which has proved to be very costly and painful.
does this also apply to anti-virals ?
Does science even understand how antibiotics work on bacteria and if so, why can they not create artificial compounds to mimc the process and evolve with the bacteria?
That sounds hopeful.
What about the antibiotics in our food stream and environment? Do they add to this resistance?
And with the hospitals getting less money and having money problems, some hospitals are filthy ... more germs, infections generally.
Ask him if they are starting to pay attention to the russian bacteriophages or phage therapy? Phage therapy is not affected to this resistance like our antibiotics are.

A man was charged with manufacturing marijuana Thursday after sheriff's officials allegedly spotted pot plants near his driveway.
Investigators say they responded to a complaint of drugs in the 100 block of Mallory Drive. When they arrived, they allegedly noticed two marijuana plants growing in separate pots, in plain view, near the driveway.
Investigators made contact with Ronald Dewayne Steele and said they removed a red pipe from his right front pocket.
When deputies searched the home, they found a beer bottle that had been fashioned into a suspected smoking device and a set of digital scales that contained suspected marijuana residue.
Steele was arrested and charged with manufacturing marijuana. He was transported to the Troup County Jail.
