FEMA announces financing options for flood-damaged UI buildings
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will finance either the replacement or restoration and mitigation of two major University of Iowa building complexes damaged in the flood of June 2008, UI president Sally Mason has announced. Those buildings include Hancher Auditorium, Voxman Music Building and Clapp Recital Hall, and the Art Building East complex.
"It is important to understand that FEMA is not directing the University to replace the Hancher/Voxman/Clapp complex or the Art Building East complex," Mason says. "The University, with proper campus consultation, will examine the costs and benefits of both options and make a recommendation to the Board of Regents as soon as possible."
Mason said the University would develop an "ambitious" schedule for rebuilding flood-damaged buildings.
Several other major UI buildings damaged by the flood will be eligible for FEMA financing for restoration and mitigation strategies to prevent damage from future flooding. Those include Art Building West, Iowa Advanced Technology Laboratories, Theatre Building, the Iowa Memorial Union, the Museum of Art building, Hawkeye Court Apartments, and the UI power plant and energy distribution systems.

University of Iowa Museum of Art collection will return to home state
An intrastate alliance will soon bring the University of Iowa Museum of Art's (UIMA) collection back to Iowa.
The Figge Art Museum, Iowa's oldest art museum, has offered the UIMA significant space for display and storage of its permanent collection, Museum of Art–organized exhibitions, and traveling shows in its 3-year-old, state-of-the-art museum building in Davenport, Iowa.
With the exception of a selection of nearly 250 works of art that returned to campus in October, the UIMA collection has been in storage in Chicago since its evacuation during the June 2008 flood. Access to that facility for students, faculty, and staff has been limited, and public access was unavailable.
Along with gallery space, the Figge has reorganized its storage facilities in order to be able to offer the UIMA a significant amount of storage space—enough to house most of the UIMA collection, allowing the University's Museum of Art staff access to the collection in order to curate exhibitions, make loans to other institutions, perform general maintenance, and carry out other normal museum functions. Office space will also be allocated to some of the University staff for their museum work.
All University of Iowa students, faculty, staff, and UI Museum of Art donors will receive free admission to the Figge during regular hours.

Study suggests manager bonuses for better mutual fund performance
University of Iowa finance professor Ashish Tiwari knows that "bonus" is sort of a bad word in business these days.
Tiwari, who is a faculty member in the Tippie College of Business, still thinks it might be a good idea because his research suggests portfolio performance would improve if such bonuses were allowed.
The Securities and Exchange Commission placed restrictions on performance-linked bonuses starting in 1971 to protect investors from money managers taking excessive risks with a client's money in search of better performance and a higher bonus. While bonuses are still allowed, SEC regulations require managers to also be penalized if their fund underperforms. Since most managers presumably don't want to pay the penalty, they instead opt to collect an annual management fee that is based on the value of the portfolio.
In his forthcoming paper, "Incentive contracts in delegated portfolio management," coauthored with Louisiana State University finance professor and Tippie College alumnus Wei Li, Tiwari suggests that allowing bonuses without the underperformance penalty could provide incentives significantly increasing the quality of a manager's information.

UI study finds MRSA in Midwestern swine, workers
The first study documenting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in swine and swine workers in the United States has been published by University of Iowa researchers.
The investigators found a strain of MRSA, known as ST398, in a swine production system in the Midwest, according to the paper published online Jan. 23 by the science journal PLoS One.
"Our results show that colonization of swine by MRSA was very common in one of two corporate swine production systems we studied," says Tara Smith, associate professor of epidemiology in the UI College of Public Health and lead author of the study. "Because ST398 was found in both animals and humans, it suggests transmission between the two.
"Our findings also suggest that once MRSA is introduced, it may spread broadly among both swine and their caretakers. Agricultural animals could become an important reservoir for this bacterium," Smith adds.
Staphylococcus aureus, often called "staph," are bacteria commonly carried on the skin or in the nose of healthy people. MRSA is a type of staph that is resistant to the broad-spectrum antibiotics commonly used to treat it. A recent study estimated that MRSA caused 94,000 infections and more than 18,000 deaths in the United States in 2005.

We use the term Tours for want of a better word. We provide immersive luxury experiences tailored around your preferences, including our unparalleled collection of Small Group India Tours.
Why choose Immersive Travel with Easy Tours? Please note that immersive touring with us may not be right for you. Many people want to see as many of India's amazing destinations as quickly as possible, and these tourists should not use our services. Explorers who are motivated to truly experience foreign cultures will really enjoy our services. Here are a few reasons why -
Immersive travel, no rushing. We cherish quality of experience far more than quantity and our tours have more time at key destinations, when compared to all other agencies. Our guests don't just mark destinations off a checklist.
Why spend the extra time? You can enjoy genuine immersive experiences and really absorb India's fascinating culture. As an example, our tours include a guided visit to the National Museum in Delhi. This is the crown jewel of India's museums, yet no other luxury tour operator (as of May 2015) includes it.
Would a first trip to Paris be complete without a visit to the Louvre, or Washington D.C. without the Smithsonian? With artefacts spanning many millennia, the National Museum will enrich your subsequent tour of India significantly because of what you will learn about its history, culture and people.
Another example is getting to experience the fascinating free lunch event at the Sikh temple in Delhi. Yet another example is the afternoon at Chomu village near Jaipur.
Expert consultants, not sales people. We are true experts in everything we offer. Our Destination Specialists are consultants and will never try to close a sale. All our Specialists spend part of the year touring India and experiencing the same journeys and facilities that our guests do.
You are encouraged to take advantage of this expertise and our private tour guests spend a lot of time communicating with their Specialist so as to create an experience that fits their preferences. Our average guest talks with their India Specialist over sixteen times on the phone before departing for India, and the first call averages over 43 minutes. The average exchange of e-mails (including communication with our Guest Relations staff once reservations are finalized) is over twenty two.
Meaningful interactions, not sanitized tours. We believe that travel should be experienced with an open heart and mind, and try our best to only work with guests that feel the same. Tourists that want to be in constant control of their environment when they travel should strongly consider not visiting India. We know that this is a recipe for disaster when you tour India.
We feel that the best way to explore anywhere is with mindfulness, which lets you enjoy the unexpected. If you need to be in total control while traveling and must mark India off your checklist, we at Easy Tours would appreciate it if you travel with another agency.
We value your time, not just your budget. We value our guests' time above all else. As one example, when we design a tour, we don't just use the hotel offering us the best commission. We start by evaluating hotels based on our personal knowledge, experience and the feedback of thousands of guests.
We then look at many other factors, including the distance of the hotel from the airport or highway for your arrival and departure at that destination. We consider whether that hotel offers an optimum combination of shorter duration (yet interesting) drives for the local explorations.
Our chauffeurs and guides get bonuses if they come up with ideas (such as an alternate route for a period when the existing route is going through delays due to repairs/construction). Our goal is to give you more time to enjoy your tour and/or boutique lodging.
Our Tour Levels
All three of our luxury travel levels come with the industry's highest standard of service.
Small Group India Tours
Private India Tours
By taking some time on this website you will be exposed to an incomparable wealth of information, selection and functionality. Alternatively, you could also call us, or click here, for our most popular tours of India.
A decade ago Easy Tours was the first company to offer luxury travel experiences in India on the internet. Although there are now thousands of companies doing so, we remain trailblazers by constantly evolving and improving our offerings.
Are you interested in India's most interesting regional cuisine? Are you passionate about unique local experiences, India's best golf courses, or its finest spas? Our guests can get expert recommendations and instant reservations.
Unique Local Experiences - Polo at 12,000 feet in the high altitude desert
Who is the best Tour Operator in India? The best tour can only come from an agency that starts with the premise that your time and your money are both very precious and neither should be wasted. We design and facilitate every itinerary while placing a premium on you getting the most for your time.
The best India tours cannot just include monuments, hotels, guides, and transportation. The other key ingredients are unique experiences, great value, local expertise and the highest level of personalized service. We are unmatched in these four categories.
The smart way to plan a tour of India is by letting our India Specialists assist you while you research and plan. Thousands of our guests have expressed gratitude for this service after they returned from India. You can also start by reviewing the web's largest selection of unique experiences in India, or design your own tour, by clicking on the following links -
Slow Travel – we strongly recommend experiencing India at a slower pace than all the itineraries you will find everywhere. This does not mean that we are suggesting that you spend more time relaxing while in India, although that is definitely worth considering at some of the world's most amazing hotels and resorts.
A number of destinations in India offer a lot more fascinating experiences than what existing itineraries offer. Current India tour packages have focused on offering the most destinations possible, and have sacrificed quality for quantity. We are changing that.
Slower Food – preparing really good Indian food has always been a time consuming art, just as it is with most cuisines. We are very conscious of the fact that discovering the culture of a country in inextricably linked with exploring its cuisine. In India this is taken to a significantly higher level because of the extreme diversity of regional cuisines. Yet we also realize that not every visitor is partial to Indian food and so the hotels, and other dining venues we select (including visits with chefs and cooking lessons) offer the very best that the region has to offer, as well as excellent western options (in almost all cases).
Athangudi Tile Crafting (presented by Easy Tours of India)
We are the premier boutique agency for luxury tours in India for many reasons, one of them being that we are the only North America based Agency with ten operations offices in India – most do not even have one!
Why are our own offices in India important? Because our expertise and local presence empowers us to offer the finest services at all three levels of luxury tours that we offer. Any agency can book a room or give you a guide or chauffeur. No one will provide you with the passion and care that our guides, chauffeurs and facilitators will demonstrate – compare our verifiable guest reviews with anyone.
We feel that India has more fascinating experiences than the next five nations on our planet together. Whether it be when you gaze closely into the eyes of a wise elephant, explore incomparable millennia old cities such as Varanasi or UNESCO Sites such as Hampi, Ajanta, Ellora, and Khajuraho, or take your guide's recommendation and play in a game of football (soccer for some) or cricket or kabadi, with kids in a small village that you just happened to be passing through during your explorations.
Monuments and experiences also have the ability to touch most explorers – for example, any visitor (with even a trace of romance in their soul) will experience their heart skip a beat when they get their first real look at the Taj Mahal.
When most of our guests return from one of our India tour packages, they tell us about how passionate every Easy Tours staff member was about India and our company. How they were deeply committed to providing the best and most immersive experience possible. What this does also mean is that, if you are more interested in a sanitized and westernized tour of India like most luxury tour operators provide, we are not the company for you.
Dashashwamedh Ghat at Varanasi
India will be a good experience for you as long as you do not travel with agencies that sell based only on cheap pricing. The nature of the country and its people ensures that, even with organizations that do not focus on providing excellence at every level, and are thus, sometimes priced lower than Easy Tours.
Will any experience be close to what we provide? NO. Most organizations are not motivated by wanting to show you India as the amazing nation should be experienced. For example, independent travelers often ask us to design a tour of India that is too rushed, not realizing the realities of travel durations in India. Our India Specialists consult with the client and recommend that they either add more time, or reduce the number of destinations that they have selected. If the guest is unwilling to do either, we politely inform them that we are not a good fit for their travel plans. We do not want to facilitate travel if we are unable to provide the best experience possible. No other agency has this philosophy.
We design our package tours of India so to give you the most for your time, not just your money. We keep you away from distasteful experiences that are a part of most train and some road travel. Our India Specialists, Facilitators, Chauffeurs, Guides and Accompanying Tour Directors are passionate about India and will share their passion with you.
The Oberoi Hotel, Gurgaon
The experts in our Guest Relations & Operations Department's, both in India and the United states, work together to give you amazing service from the day you first reserve, or request information from us. This continues all the way until you return home from your journey through India.
Our Small Group Tours of India are exquisitely planned & facilitated and are All Inclusive. Our Independent India tours include breakfasts and most include a few other meals, but all are facilitated for independent travelers and give you complete flexibility in orchestrating your exploration of India.
An incredible level of service begins when you first contact your US or India based Travel Specialist. Read some of our Verifiable Guest Reviews and compare them to ANY Company servicing ANY part of the world. While our guests are effusive about their praise for India and the hotels we use, what they rave about the most are our people. As the pages and pages of praise for our guides, chauffeurs, guest relations managers, and US and India based Travel Specialists will illustrate, our staff is unmatched in their level of commitment.
Alpha Male Tiger in Ranthambore National Park
Our website is an example of our commitment to being the very best at what we do. Please take the time to click through to one of the tour pages so that you can experience the amazing interface and incredible depth of information – this website is revolutionary in its simplicity and functionality.
The vast majority of Foreign Tour Operators do not have even one office in India - they are middlemen selling the whole world and marking up the price they receive from an India based company. They all have huge sales offices in the west or in Oceania. Most of the itineraries they advertise have errors in their descriptions and, to someone that knows luxury travel in India, illustrate how that they have very little knowledge of India.
We have 10 well staffed offices in India and we do not have to add additional mark-ups. Our large staff of dedicated professionals in India personally facilitates our guests' vacations and luxury tours of India.
The Specialists in our US and India sales & design departments only cater to travel in South Asia and are true experts. Each one of them spends significant time experiencing India about once every eighteen months - they use the same lodging, flights, vehicles and roads that our guests do - they visit the same attractions.
Humayun's Tomb, Delhi - UNESCO World Heritage Site
There are budget agencies that have facilitated tours of India for hundreds of thousands over the last 10 years – we have barely crossed 16,000. Our boutique approach to travel does not allow for much than that and that is why over a third of our travellers are now repeat guests and referrals.
We start with the premise that your time and your money are both very precious & neither should be wasted. The experts in our Guest Relations & Operations Departments in India and the US work together to give you amazing service from the day you first reserve or request information, all the way until you return home from your luxury tour of India.
We then add World Class Service. From the moment that you are greeted by our Visit Facilitator or Tour Director, you enter a world of impeccable service and hospitality. When you journey through India with us, your biggest decisions are what places and experiences you'd like to spend your time exploring, and what cuisine you will want to savor on your next meal. Because of our unmatched local expertise, you get to see all that India has to offer without having to think about logistics.
Villagers in Andhra Pradesh
We have built the Best Relationships. We are preferred partners of the finest hoteliers in the world - The Oberoi Group (including the Trident Hotels) and the Taj Group (including the Vivanta and Gateway Hotels) both enjoy reputations that are the envy of every other hotelier on this planet - they both have received more Top 20 accolades (from western experts such as Travel & Leisure and Conde Nast) than any other hotel brand on earth. We are committed to almost exclusively using one of Asia's finest airlines, Jet Airways, unless they do not offer viable options for the relevant flight segment.
We offer the most diverse selection of lodging and services in India. You can choose from the finest luxury hotels to exquisite boutique hotels, from Grand Heritage Palaces to smaller heritage establishments. India's finest staff of expert Tour Directors & Guides will show you the best vantage point for the unusual photograph you seek, or the special restaurant that most tourists never hear about. A wide selection of immaculate late model vehicles is available to suit any preference for your journey through India.
Quality & exclusivity are standard equipment. Our Small Group Explorations have a maximum of 12 members; our average group size is 8. Both Small Group & Independent travelers can choose from 3 different levels of travel, ranging from fairly luxurious to almost decadent.
Guests interested in India vacations or theme based holidays can ask us to arrange just lodging and transportation, and then select from a menu of sightseeing and other options if they so desire.
We offer unique and imaginative itineraries. Unlike other tour operators who offer India tours with the same old tired themes and canned presentations, we offer unique and fresh perspectives that are designed with today's luxury traveler in mind. Read the brochures and /or websites of a few other tour companies. Observe how their India Tours all feel and sound the same. Then read a description of one or two of our tours in India.
School girls near Hampi, Karnataka
As most Foreign Tour Operators (including the top luxury outfitters) do not have a presence in India and rely on local agents in different Indian cities, if their India based agent suggests a change, these organizations have distinct command chains and thus they do not have the ability to be flexible so they can improve. An example of this is that most of the largest Tour companies in the US are currently showing luxury tour itineraries that include flights that were cancelled over two years ago. Instead of an hour long flight, their clients get an 8 hour drive and lose a complete day of exploring, but are only told this when they arrive in India, with an implication that the flight was just cancelled.
So called "Luxury" agents based in India tend to focus on offering the lowest price. They will find which 4 or 5 star hotel will pay them the biggest commission and design and quote a tour based on that. We base our hotel selections in India on the consistence of quality and the duration of drive time that you will experience during your activities at that destination. We feel that paying a little more to save our guests a couple of hours in drive time is well worth it. An example of the benefits is that you can leave for the airport at 7 am, instead of 6, for an early morning flight.
Other ways we value your time - one of the biggest differences between us and other agencies is that our recommended tours of India are based on you flying between most of your destinations in India, or driving where that is the least tedious and time consuming mode of travel. We do include very short train travel in some itineraries, when that is by far the best option, and can customize an independent traveller's desire for more. We know the drives that offer great opportunities to experience and photograph amazing rural life, or natural scenery, and when these do not add too much time to a flight for the same journey, we facilitate your travel by road.
Tribal Women Visiting Jaisalmer
We specialize in all aspects of luxury travel in India, including trains like the Palace on Wheels, Maharaja Express, and the Deccan Odyssey. We believe that these trains will appeal to rail enthusiasts and to those that India is just something a on a checklist of places they have been. These trains have limited advantages (& luxury, despite their names) and a number of disadvantages. Unless you really love train travel, these experiences are also a poor value.
Besides the above mentioned expensive train tours, it is not a good idea for most foreign explorers to travel by train while in India. Many explorers planning an India tour have a highly romanticized image of train travel. This has been propagated by many motion pictures and other accounts, most recently by a movie called The Darjeeling Express. Take our word for it, these accounts are completely fictitious. In almost all train travel the sanitation is very poor, the hygiene in food options unsafe, and comfort is pretty much non-existent. Is it a very unique experience? Yes, it is. Is there a very good chance that you will suffer some stomach issues that will severely affect your India tour? YES, there is.
Experience more of the incredible culture of India, and less of India's limitations - India offers the richest & most colorful culture on this planet and its people are among the most gracious in the world. However, this ancient civilization also has a lot of facets that can be hard on an unprepared visitor - especially in terms of optimum utilization of your time, and the lack of proper sanitation / hygiene.
Time is not usually valued highly in India and most companies (including western tour operators that are middlemen depending on Indian agents) design travel itineraries where you waste a significant portion of your time in uninspiring and inefficient travel, often because this allows the agent to offer a lower price.
If you follow our recommendations on travel, you end up avoiding wasted time and poor levels of sanitation. This enables you to spend more time experiencing, exploring and relaxing at your destinations. Click here to learn more.
Monkey Business
We save you money. Luxury tours of India cost less with us, unless you are comparing us to agency's that don't really know what true luxury is. Compare us to the other reputable companies that offer luxury travel in India. No one offers the value we offer. If you find a less expensive India tour, there will be many good reasons why it's cheaper.
You are the boss! You determine the priorities. It's your time - you decide what to do. Most activities during our India Tours are elective, and you can even opt out of most excursions when you are on one of our exquisitely planned Small Group Tours of India.
There is a severe shortage of good hotels in India during the peak tourism season and availability can be slim. We have the relationships to secure the better rooms when others can't, thereby making your India tour a better experience.
No one offers the vehicle choices that we do. Most so called luxury Tour companies only offer the vehicles we offer at our First Class Level. We include two levels of automobiles above that, starting with a Japanese Crossover and moving up to larger vehicles of Japanese and European origin.

Is 21HP on the Ericson 35 ok?
Thanks for the comments. While most Ericson owners who have commented to me have praise for the engine, there are a few who wish for a little more power. Clearly, those who sail flat water or on non-tidal waters have no problem. The few that have repowered clearly opt for substantial more hp. To be clearer for my needs (a 2-3 ft. chop at 20 knots) I just don''t want to drop from 5 down to 3 or less knots. I am hoping that with some sort of three-blade prop, the needed push through a chop or tide would be sufficient with the 21 hp engine. I also have noted that some Universal 25 owners think it is 25 hp, rather than 21 hp as I understand is correct. I have seen this apparent error mentioned in other boats. As to the thought that modern boats have larger engines to get to races quicker, I would point to the newer cruising boats such as the smaller Island Packets, Pacific 31, etc. where larger engines are the rule.

Be the change you wish to see in the world," said Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation. Sixty-six years later, almost every Indian wants change in the 'system but few want to participate in bringing it about.
In the light of the recent gang rape of a 23-year-old in Delhi, among the immediate changes we need are the formation of fast-track courts and better conviction rates. But we also need an efficient and corruption-free government body that has the interests of its citizens at heart, and accelerated passing of bills that are stuck in Parliament for years.
Given that the average age of a parliamentarian in India is 53 years in the Lok Sabha and 62 years in the Rajya Sabha, the role of the youth seems meagre in the decision-making mechanism. And the 'younger' politicians in our country belong mainly to influential political families. How can the system be reformed when the youth of our country do not have a hand in the mechanism that directly affects them?
Most youngsters term politics a 'dirty game' and don't want to pursue a career in it for fear that their families will be put in danger, or that they'd get consumed by corruption. Others just aren't interested in a revolution. The few who are concerned about the future of our country want change without directly participating. How can only a few non-governmental organisations scattered around the country bring about change for the rest?
With mass uprisings in the capital and the demand for change, the youth have to realise that an overhaul of the system can be brought about only if they participate. Agreed, it is by no means an easy task, but the movement has to start somewhere.
The first step is to change the mindsets of people about politics as a process. We need to believe that politics is not corrupt, politicians are. No form of the system can be perfect, each comes with its own flaws. As Winston Churchill said: "No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those forms which have been tried from time to time." It is then up to each individual to keep corruption at bay so as to make the system work.
Youngsters have to step up today to join the movement for the change they want in their country. If the youth don't pitch in, this change won't come about only from the few who ardently strive towards it.
The most important factor driving any revolution that brought about a significant change in the lives of people was belief. Take for instance, our forefathers who achieved Independence only through continuous efforts to break free from their rulers. Each one of them had a belief which they converted into reality. Today, the difference is that we are at war with our own people. The shift we aspire for can be attained only if and when the younger generation focuses on change from within – by getting directly involved.
Failing this, India would be run by people who, in any other profession, would normally already be retired, people who are making decisions to promote only their own interests. The voice of the larger majority will go unheard, and with no action, this will only bring about more resentment among the masses. It is time a new generation stepped into the core law-framing body of our country, with a crisp and unprejudiced perspective for real development. In this new mould of the future, I will run for elections. I will stand for change.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) annual meeting, coming up in early May, has become the stuff of legends, and is not your typical shareholder gathering. This is a weekend event, attended by thousands, complete with a reception, 5K, picnic, and exclusive shareholder shopping at a Berkshire owned company (Borsheims), and "Steak Night." Most if not all other annual meetings pale in comparison to this event, and are typically not well attended by shareholders.
One that is well-attended, however, especially given the size of the company, is the Biglari Holdings (BH - Get Report) annual meeting, coming April 4 in NYC. I try not to miss this meeting; and this year should prove to be especially interesting.
Biglari Holdings has been embroiled in a fairly well publicized battle with Cracker Barrel (CBRL - Get Report) , haven taken a 20% stake in the country dining chain. Biglari Holdings CEO Sardar Biglari has not minced words about the greater transparency and changes he wants to see at Cracker Barrel; and he has failed so far to obtain seats on the board of directors.
That's where the story starts to get interesting. In

Wind Farm Kills Nine Eagles in Norway
OSLO (Reuters) – Windmills have killed nine eagles in less than a year at a key breeding site in Norway, showing that governments should be more cautious in picking where to set up turbines, a conservation group said on Friday.
Only one pair of white-tailed eagles — Europe's biggest eagle species — had young this year on the windmill site at Smoela, a set of islands off mid-Norway, Britain's Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) said in a statement.
Smoela used to be a stronghold of the species with up to 19 pairs before the wind park opened in 2002, it said.
"Turbine blades have killed nine of the birds in the last 10 months including all three chicks that fledged last year," it said.
The RSPB urged governments to be more cautious in deciding where to put up wind farms. "Smoela is demonstrating the damage that can be caused by a wnid farm in the wrong location," asid Rowena Langston, senior research biologist at the RSPB.
The first 20 turbines on Smoela started up in 2002 with the other 48 added in the second half of 2005. Examination of the dead birds blamed their deaths on "multiple trauma by a heavy blow."

Scar FX makes products including self-adhesive silicone sheets that visibly diminish the appearance of scars. Silicone is clinically proven to treat scars by lightening their color and by flattening scars that are elevated. These easy-to-use sheets are made of medical-grade silicone and conform to the scarred area like a second skin while it safely improves the appearance of surgical scars and scars related to injuries or burns. It's scar therapy that's safe and effective – and you don't need a prescription or an appointment with a surgeon to get results.

|College Basketball Odds: Marquette at Villanova Spread, Preview & Public Picks
|Written by Anthony Rome
|Monday, 25 February 2008 05:29
Blowing Out The Comp
Marquette will try to avoid becoming the second straight ranked team to have its winning streak snapped at Villanova when the No. 25 Golden Eagles visit the Wachovia Center on Monday.
After a 78-48 blowout of Rutgers on Saturday, Marquette (20-6, 10-5 Big East) has won four straight games by an average of more than 20 points.
But Villanova (17-9, 7-7) was responsible for ending then-No. 13 Connecticut's 10-game winning streak with a 67-65 home win over the Huskies on Saturday, and the surging Wildcats have now won three straight games to play their way back onto the bubble for an at-large berth in the NCAA tournament.
Oddsmakers from Bodog have made Marquette -2 point spread favorites (View College Basketball odds) for today's game (Game Matchup). Current public betting information shows that 50% of bets for this game have been placed on Marquette -2 (View College Basketball bet percentages).
Marquette is already all but assured of a spot in the 65-team field, but that won't stop the Golden Eagles from seeking their fifth straight win heading into a showdown with Big East co-leader Georgetown on Saturday.
They have scored at least 72 points and allowed no more than 64 in each game of their current winning streak, and they forced 23 turnovers in each of their last two games.
Against Rutgers, that translated into a 35-4 edge on fast break points, as they shot a season-best 56.1 percent from the field and had four starters score in double figures.
"Our defense was by far our best offense," Marquette coach Tom Crean said. "When you've got that going, you have an opportunity to be really good."
Lazar Hayward led the offense with 15 points, but Jerel McNeal started the breaks with five steals, also adding 14 points, seven assists, seven rebounds and three blocked shots.
"Defense, rebounding, running and sharing the ball; when we are at our pace, we're tough to beat," said Marquette's Wesley Matthews, who had 12 points. "Everyone has to get involved."
Golden Eagles guard Dominic James, who hasn't missed a game in his career at Marquette, is expected to play Monday despite injuring his ankle against the Scarlet Knights.
He was hurt after a collision with Rutgers center Byron Joynes late in the first half, but returned after halftime and finished with 13 points and six assists.
"He knows he's one of the leaders on this team," Matthews said. "You can't show pain, you can't show that you're hurt or down or anything like that when you're looked at upon like he is."
Scottie Reynolds has been the leader for Villanova. The sophomore had 18 points against Connecticut as the Wildcats won for the fourth time in five games, with the only loss a two-point defeat at then-No. 8 Georgetown on Feb. 11.
Villanova had lost its previous five games before beginning its current run.
"Coach (Jay Wright) kept telling us we were going to be good," said Reynolds, who averages 16.4 points. "Even when we were struggling, he would tell us to keep our heads up because things were going to turn around."
Villanova starts two freshmen and doesn't have a senior on the roster, but the Wildcats are starting to mature. Freshman reserve Corey Stokes had a season-high 18 points against the Huskies, and has shot 10-of-20 from 3-point range in the last three games.
"This is what coaching is all about," Wright said. "We knew we'd get there. We knew we were going to be good."
The Wildcats have also won three straight at home, where they are 11-2 this season. Marquette is just 4-4 on the road, and lost 72-67 at then-No. 4 Villanova two seasons ago in their only visit as a Big East opponent.

Despite loss, Xavier exceeded all expectations -- except its own
BROOKLYN – Chris Mack never concerned himself with what prognosticators thought of Xavier heading into the season.
As a result, when Xavier lost a heartbreaker to Saint Joseph's in the final seconds of the Atlantic-10's first-round meeting, the fourth-year head coach wasn't sure how to answer whether his team had exceeded expectations.
"It depends who made the predictions," Mack said.
In the preseason, no matter which outlet or media member or expert made a projection, it generally didn't look great for the Musketeers. They were picked ninth in the preseason Atlantic 10 poll, and many people had them even lower than that heading into the season.
After all, Xavier lost three seniors off last year's team – in addition to starters Mark Lyons (Arizona) and Dezmine Wells (Maryland), who are both playing key roles at other schools this season.
"There were people out there who didn't feel we would make the conference tournament," Mack said, "that we wouldn't be there until the end."
So Mack was surprised at the team's solid performance? Well, not really.
"We didn't exceed our own expectation, and that's the only one that matters," he said.
Xavier finished 9-7 in conference play and had performed well enough to be on the periphery of the bubble down the stretch of the season. The Musketeers beat five top-50 teams, including Memphis and Saint Louis in the final three weeks of the season.
Had they made a run to the conference championship game, who knows, the Musketeers might have sneaked up and grabbed an at-large bid.
While Isaiah Philmore's missed lay-up at the buzzer likely relegates Xavier to the NIT, just being in this position is impressive when you look at what the Musketeers had coming into the season.
Travis Taylor and his 4.5 points per game was the leading returning scorer, and only five players that saw any sort of extended minutes were back from a year ago. It was hard to see exactly how Xavier would play itself into the Atlantic 10 race.
Yet here they were, in late February, at 8-4 in the conference and right in the mix for the title.
"Up until that point, we felt that we were playing for a conference championship," Mack said. "12 or 13 games into the season, for a team that lost all five starters, I'm proud of our kids."
The loss to Saint Joseph's will certainly leave a sour taste in their mouth as they head home to Ohio – it is unclear if and where Xavier will play another game this season – there is plenty to be excited about going into next season. Freshman stud Semaj Christon returns, and Mack gets the services of incoming recruit Brandon Randolph and a couple of players who redshirted this season.
Next year, though, Xavier won't be sneaking up on anyone.

And to make things more interesting, the polydopamine coating, in turn, provides a very chemically reactive surface onto which the researchers can deposit a second coating. And because the surface is so reactive in so many different ways, a wide variety of second coatings can be applied.
We take advantage of that reactivity to apply the second layer, said Messersmith. As a simple example, I could put an iPod in the dopamine solution, and a thin polydopamine coating would form. Then I could take it out and put it in a metal salt solution and form a coating of copper or silver.
This second coating, depending on what it is, promises to take researchers and industry in multiple directions as far as applications go. In addition to cladding objects with metal coatings, this includes inhibiting biofouling of materials (such as for medical devices), engineering surfaces to support biospecific interactions with cells (such as for culture and expansion of stem cells) and applying self-assembled monolayers to nonmetal surfaces (such as for biosensors).
Messersmith and his colleagues tested the two-step process on 25 different substrate materials (but not an iPod) with a wide range of characteristics representing all major classes of materials, from hydrophobic to hydrophilic, from inorganic to organic, as well as the traditionally difficult material Teflon, all with positive results. They then demonstrated deposition of metal and organic coatings and self-assembled monolayers onto the polydopamine coating.
Existing methods for modifying material surfaces are fairly restri

Maritime Museum sails into uncharted waters
Can Gauguin and galleon turn this institution into a hot ticket?
When a museum's main draw is a 148-year-old relic — a local icon, yes, but still a relic — that museum normally isn't considered a hot ticket.
Time to reconsider.
The Maritime Museum of San Diego, whose fleet includes the majestic but antique Star of India, has launched two projects that may scrape the barnacles off its musty image. One, the construction of a working replica of Cabrillo's galleon, San Salvador, is a bold venture into historical re-creation. The other, an exhibition of art and artifacts from three Westerners — the explorer Capt. James Cook, writer Herman Melville and artist Paul Gauguin — adrift in Polynesia, promises to be a blockbuster show.
"You would expect to see something like this at the Getty or the Huntington," said Raymond Ashley, the museum's president and CEO.
Aye, and thar be the salt-sprayed rub. While "Three Voyages to Paradise" is the museum's first fully-realized step in its campaign to reinvent itself, the art show resembles a whale out of water. When it opens on May 27, visitors may pause before the rare paintings and instruments from Cook's 18th century and Melville's 19th century South Pacific trips. Many, though, will rush past those treasures to inspect 61 works by Gauguin, including nine paintings and one of the largest collections of Gauguin sculptures ever assembled.
Historians present the French artist as an unsavory character, yet his art remains seductive. The National Galley in Washington, D.C., is hosting a major Gauguin show, while the works coming to San Diego recently drew crowds to landlocked museums in Rome and Taipei.
Placing them aboard the ferry Berkeley? Unusual.
And within the context of Western incursions into "paradise"? Unprecedented.
"This is an incredible vision," said Marcus De Chevrioux, curator at the Kelton Foundation, a Santa Monica-based charity that is loaning the art.
No less daring, though, is the San Salvador's construction, which began this week in Spanish Landing Park. The original 16th century galleon was Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo's flagship when his became the first European expedition to enter San Diego Bay in 1542.
While this is a familiar tale, taught to California's fourth and fifth graders, the vessel is a mystery. No drawings or charts of San Salvador have ever been found.
"We have bits and snippets," said Doug Sharp, a San Diego naval architect, "but nothing that describes the ship other than a reference to a galleon of '200 toneladas.'"
"Tonelada" is a unit of mass. Beyond that? The historical record is silent.
Whiff of controversy
De Chevrioux has his own hurdles, beginning with the museum's image. Instead of a building, this museum occupies 11 vessels moored in the bay. While notable — an 1863 barque, the Star is the world's oldest active sailing ship — most of the vessels' attractions are hidden from passersby's view. Of the 1.4 million people annually strolling by the museum, only about 10 percent buy a ticket.
And most don't come aboard to admire art. Ships, after all, make rotten galleries.

The SCO Group has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after continuing to struggle in the market amid its expensive legal battle against the likes of Novell and IBM over the development of Linux.
"The board of directors of SCO Group have unanimously determined that Chapter 11 reorganisation is in the best long-term interest of SCO and its subsidiaries, as well as its customers, shareholders, and employees," said SCO in a statement.
"The SCO Group intends to maintain all normal business operations throughout the bankruptcy proceedings," it said.
Darl McBride, CEO of the SCO Group, said, "We want to assure our customers and partners that they can continue to rely on SCO products, support and services for their business-critical operations."
The bankruptcy move, which protects the firm's assets while still trading, comes less than a month after SCO essentially lost its legal case against Novell over which firm owned Unix technology.
Novell's technology has been used in the open source Linux development community.
SCO is also currently suing IBM over the way it has contributed code to the Linux community, but most of its claims in that case have already been thrown out.
The massive legal bills, along with a poor trading performance, have sent SCO into the red.

Idera Pharmaceuticals provides development update on IMO-9200
Idera Pharmaceuticals announced the achievement of key development milestones for its product candidate IMO-9200, an antagonist of Toll-like receptors, or TLRs, 7, 8 and 9. Specifically, the company reported top-line data from a Phase 1 clinical trial of IMO-9200 in healthy subjects and announced the presentation of new preclinical data for IMO-9200 in models of inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, at the 2015 Digestive Disease Week Conference, or DDW, in Washington, DC. In the placebo-controlled Phase 1 clinical trial in 30 healthy subjects, IMO-9200 was administered by subcutaneous injection at escalating single-dose levels of 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 mg/kg. In the multiple dose cohort, a dose of 0.5 mg/kg/week for four weeks was also evaluated. All dose regimens were well tolerated, with no serious adverse events related to IMO-9200 treatment reported. There were no patterns of laboratory or other safety parameters suggestive of any related adverse treatment effect. Additionally, new preclinical data for IMO-9200 were presented on Saturday, May 16 at the 2015 Digestive Disease Week Conference. The poster presentation, entitled "Targeting Innate Immune Receptors to Treat Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Activity of Oral IMO-9200, an Antagonist of TLRs 7, 8, and 9 in Mouse Models of Colitis," provided results from two mouse models of colitis. These results demonstrated the potential of orally dosed IMO-9200 as a treatment for inflammatory bowel disease, which includes Crohn's disease, or CD, and ulcerative colitis.

Sydney can be as cosmopolitan as you need it but just behind lurking on the outskirts and even within its suburbs are scatterings of bushland. This little patch is just behind my family home. A little path that wanders down through suburban homes and leads to kilometres of bush.

Ah, just like my Sydney childhood.
I've been loving your Sydney. Seems akin to my own.

Geologists have used the Hubble Space Telescope to study minerals on the moon. It might be one small step for them, but it's a giant leap towards building a lunar outpost.
Space scientists are keen to map the concentration of the titanium-dioxide-rich mineral ilmenite on the moon's surface, says Jim Garvin of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. "Oxygen production from TiO2-enhanced lunar soils could potentially make breathable oxygen and even oxidiser for rocket fuel."
UV images of the lunar surface show patterns that correlate with the concentration of TiO2 measured in lunar samples collected by the Apollo missions, and so a map of the UV variations can be used to create a map of TiO2 abundance. However, Earth's atmosphere interferes with UV readings, so the team used Hubble to take UV images of a small area of the lunar surface that included the landing sites of the Apollo 15 and 17 spacecraft.
When the team compared the UV data with the TiO2 levels from the Apollo sampled, they found that low-lying basaltic soil has 6 to 8 per cent TiO2 by weight, while the highland soils contain only 2 per cent (Geophysical Research Letters, vol 34, p L13203). "Our well-calibrated UV images will act as a pathfinder for mapping by NASA's 2008 Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter," says Garvin.

NEW YORK – Hurricane Sandy survivors who have already registered with FEMA are urged to keep in touch and keep their contact information current, especially if they have been displaced by the disaster.
After survivors register for assistance, FEMA will reach out to them to set up housing inspections and mail determination letters, so updating your phone number and mailing address as needed is key to ensure that your recovery is not delayed.
Once a FEMA-contracted housing inspector calls to set up an appointment, it is also important that applicants keep their appointment, or call to reschedule as needed so that the application process continues.
Applicants who need to update their contact information or have questions regarding their application can call the toll-free FEMA helpline.
- Call 800-621-FEMA (3362). If you have a speech disability or hearing loss and use a TTY, call 800-462-7585 directly; if you use 711 or Video Relay Service (VRS), call 800-621-3362.
- The toll-free telephone numbers will operate 24 hours daily, seven days a week, until further notice
Survivors can call the helpline to:
- Update their file with a change of address or new phone number.
- Ask questions about disaster assistance.
- Track the progress of their FEMA application.
- Get information about the inspection process.
- Learn about the steps to appeal a FEMA decision.
Survivors can also have questions answered by visiting their nearest disaster recovery center. To find the nearest center:
- Text DRC and a Zip Code to 43362 (4FEMA), and a text message will be sent back with the address.
