Irishbanger, thank you for sharing your story, it is very touching and inspiring.
I hope nobody minds if I share mine, which is similar, but it features a player that some of you hate with a passion. I'll keep it brief as I can...
I have been a 'casual' tennis fans for years, mostly managing to only find Wimbledon and the USOpen on TV during the summer. I have vague memories of Borg and Mac on grass, Tracy Austin in her pink dress in New York and a few Martina-Chrissy battles of the past. I played on my high school team for a year (JV only) but gave it up because I couldn't afford private lessons. I watched Pete win his first USO on TV and tried to follow him as best as I could (he looked a lot like my oldest brother), but due to life and other interests my attention faded in and out over the decade and my racquet collected dust. Around 1996 I started watching again, and the internet helped me to keep track throughout the year, but I was mainly interested in watching Pete (if he wasn't playing, I didn't watch. I missed a lot of good tennis).
I graduated from college in 1998, got a full time job, and proceeded to gain weight (all those lunches in the office cafeteria). I was still watching tennis, especially Pete, who made it look like a form of art in my eyes. Until one day in 2001 when he got beat by this kid from Florida at the Miami Masters. Who is this brat that dared to beat Pete? Two months later that same kid was on my TV again, falling all over the place on red clay, looking like Pigpen from the Peanuts comic strip. He beat Michael Chang! Wow, he has no respect for these legends, does he? Two days later, he was rolling around again, trying to play a match against Hewitt despite being in obvious pain, with his coach waving frantically for him to get off the court... Fast forward to early 2002, the Aus Open, and I am avidly following this kid, looking for his matches, his stats, any info about him. I thought he was exciting, he played tennis like a train wreck, emotions all over the place. And he was rolling around on court again, but this time he twisted his ankle and had to pull out of another match. I found his official website and discovered that he would be playing in San Jose, which isn't too far away. I went to the tournament website to buy tickets, but clicked on the volunteer link instead. My first tournament ever, not only would I see some professional tennis, but I have the opportunity to meet some players and tennis people. Cool.
I drove that kid after he lost his semi-final match to Andre Agassi. He said he should send Andre a check for the tutoring session because he sure taught him a lesson in that match. He was nice enough to talk to his driver during that short trip, make a few jokes, etc. Seemed like a good kid, raised well by his parents. Complete contrast to the other player I met at that tournament (an older American player, rude jerk from New Jersey). Pete Sampras made tennis look like an art form that us mere mortals could never achieve. Andy Roddick made tennis look like a crazy, fun, physical workout that just about anyone could throw their body into. A few weeks later when the weather was nice, I dug my racquet out of the closet and headed up to our community courts to check out the club and take lessons. I met really cool tennis players in my city, I met cool tennis fans on various internet message boards, and I lost weight. I went to more tournaments and met more players and more fans, many of whom have become friends (including that one player from New Jersey who has matured and changed from the rude guy I met in 2002).
So, thank you Andy Roddick. Now get your head together, and stop standing nine feet behind the baseline please.
Pros should stop wasting money on coaches and doctors and just read the experts on this forum.

This is a realistic scenario – another military confrontation between Israel and one of its neighbouring countries. Israeli air force (IAF) bases are prime targets for enemy countries – but also for terror organisations backed by enemy countries.
The threat is not posed by enemy aircraft carrying bombs, but by ground-launched rockets and missiles – and the IAF is getting ready to operate under such attacks.
A few days ago, one of the IAF's main air bases became the scene of an exercise aimed at preparing the force for this scenario
In seconds, a routine day at Nevatim air base in southern Israel became a warzone. A "code red" alarm was heard throughout the base, and an explosion bloomed – representing a missile falling next to a building housing one of the base's squadrons. Seconds later, another 'missile' caused a fire. To complicate this, dozens of wounded soldiers and servicemen suffering from anxiety needed to be evacuated for medical treatment.
Soldiers at Nevatim air base had to deal with this situation – among more than 80 other such scenarios – as part of a large functional-continuity exercise. The soldiers had to deal with different emergency situations, from "code red" alarms that blared dozens of times to the threat of attacks on planes at the base.
"The goal of the exercise is to thoroughly prepare the various units of the air base. We wanted to train everyone for difficult combat situations, and improve the synchronisation of the whole airbase," Maj Dror, deputy commander of the aviation squadron at Nevatim, told the IAF website. "This is an exercise designed to hone commanding skills under conditions of uncertainty, and we put heavy emphasis on the element of surprise."
Uncertainty and surprise was a factor from the very beginning of the exercise – as the soldiers serving at Nevatim gathered at the centre of the airbase, for a briefing prior to the expected exercise, a siren blared, indicating that rockets or missiles had been detected on a trajectory to hit the base.
In a future war the IAF's air bases will be defended by the Iron Dome and the longer range David's Sling rocket interceptors. But as a 100% intercept rate is not guaranteed, the IAF is taking steps to be ready for continued operation under fire.

Leben looked great last night and to think that he landed that huge KO after getting a little rocked..
Leben looked great last night and to think that he landed that huge KO after getting a little rocked..
Leben really was the surprise of the night for me to, I was not impressed by Nate Quarry even though he won. Young Diaz could really be a great contender in the near future if he stays as hungry as he is, it will be interesting to see how he deals with a loss too. Din Thomas had an unfortunate event that couldn't be helped but I wonder how long he will continue because I think he's lucky to get on the undercard, not taking anything away from Ken the flo but I don't think he could even challenge the top 3 in that weight class. This weekend I like Lidell and Forest.
Check out the picture posted above. First Terry Martin gets harassed by the cops, then he gets stared down by both Leben and Dana White. On top of that he loses. The guy can't catch a break lately.
haha…thats what i call a bad week!!!
I just saw the Luke Cummo fight. Man, the guy he fought was the wierdest dude to ever step into the octogon. He makes Diego and Luke look like the most ordinary people on this earth.
He did the wierdest gestures throughout the fight, then Luke clocked him. The guy was looking right, then left, I have no idea what he was looking at…maybe there was like 20 Lukes around him. Really entertaining lol.

Christian devotees participate in what was known as visita Iglesia or the Seven Churches Visitation, a Roman Catholic Lenten tradition of visiting seven churches or religious sites, traditionally observed on Maundy Thursday.
Before WW2, Intramuros had eight churches within its confines so that devotees would not have a hard time visting each church, the "Liberation" destroyed most of these churches and only the Manila Casthedral and San Agustin churches remained.
For those still willing to do the sacrifice, they can start with San Agustin Church originally known as "Iglesia de San Pablo" founded in 1571, the oldest stone church in the Philippines. It is administered by the Order of Saint Agustine (Augustinian Friars).
Since the time of its foundation, the devotion to Nuestra Senora dela Consolacion y Cirrea is celebrated every Saturday. In this church is the tomb of "El Adelantado Miguel Lopez de Legaspi," founder of the City of Manila. Terms for the American occupation of Manila was signed in the sacristy and First Plenary Council of the Philippine The Church before it became a Cathedral
Within walking distance is the Manila Cathedral. On January 24, 1571 , feast of St. John the Baptist, the Spanish conquistador Miguel Lopez de Legaspi founded the city of Manila. He earlier taken possession of Maynilad, the native settlement of Rajah Matanda and Rajah Sulayman on May 19, 1571, and firmly established Spanish authority in the newly conquered and untrammeled turf.
By jeep, one can reach San Sebastian Church in Quiapo, one of Manila's older districts. Surrounding it are rows of old houses. The Church of San Sebastian is made of a steel frame and panels and is known for its distinct characteristic - that of being the only neo-gothic steel church in the Philippines and in Asia. The steel parts were manufactured in the Societe Anonyme's foundry in Binche, Belgium, and were shipped to Manila.
Binondo Church is a historic landmark among the Fil-Chinese. One of the oldest churches in the country, Binondo Church is located on Ongpin Street in the heart of Manila's Chinatown district.The church's patroness is the image of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary but there is also an image of St. Lorenzo Ruiz on the left side of the altar to honor the first Filipino saint.
St. Lorenzo Ruiz, who was a Filipino-Chinese, served as an altar boy at the church in the 17th century. He went to Japan as a missionary but, together with his shipmates, was executed because of his religion.
The present granite structure was completed in 1852, some two centuries after the Dominican priests built the original church in 1596. Today, what was left of the 16th century structure is the Chinese-inspired octagonal bell tower.
The original structure was torn down a few times during the Chinese revolt in 1603, during the brief occupation of the British who bombarded the structure in 1762, in an earthquake a century later, and during the American occupation when they bombed Manila.
Quiapo Church, officially known as Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene, is a Roman Catholic church located in the District of Quiapo, Manila, in the Philippines. The church is one of the most popular churches in the country. It is home to the Black Nazarene, a much venerated statue of Jesus Christ which many people believe has miraculous attributes. The church was painted cream after the original Mexican Baroque edifice was burned down in 1928. It is expanded to its current form in 1984 to accommodate thousands of devotees. Also known as St. John the Baptist Parish, the church at present belongs to the Archdiocese of Manila.
Malate Church is one of the Philippines' oldest and uniquely designed churches. With its convenient location, one can easily drop by this popular historical building. Know more as GoodBuyHolidays.com writes about this 16th century Baroque church.
Malate Church was originally built in 1588, and is still in service today. The building has taken a few blows in its history. A typhoon in 1868 destroyed the church completely, and the church was rebuilt on the same location. During World War II, the church took severe structural damage. Malate Church was restored in the 1950's to its current state, but the church still retains the same stone facade and baroque styling that it exuded in the 16th century.
St Jude.The Chinese presence in the Philippines goes back many centuries. With the coming of the Spaniards, the evangelization and pastoral care of the Chinese in Manila came under the Dominicans.
The Philippine Independent Church (Aglipay). The National Cathedral is the center for the life, work, and witness of the Iglesia Filipina Independiente. It is the seat of the Obispo Maximo who is the Chief Pastor and Spiritual Head of the Church.
The National Cathedral was built in 1969 and dedicated to the honor of the Holy Infant Jesus (Holy Child). It replaced the first Cathedral in Tondo, Manila, that was completely destroyed during World War II.

CHESTERTOWN The Class of 2007 graduated from North Warren last Saturday with memories, smiles and tears.
Our memorable days of wandering into first period half asleep and living off the schools bean burritos and nachos are over, said Salutatorian LeeAnn Rohm. We have just barely begun the trip on the roller coaster of life and already it seems like weve had quite a ride.
Rohm said that the 43 graduates stood on stage, all full of secrets.
We have interests and talents that exist independent of math, English, science and social studies, she said. And our real destinations are secret, even from ourselves.
Rohm charged her classmates to cherish life.
We get too caught up in the constant rush of everything to realize that this place, this life, is miraculous, she said. Explore everything life has to offer and live everyday to the fullest.
She challenged the class to identify opportunities and pursue them.
We can make a substantial difference in our world, she said. Its up to us right now.
Valedictorian Jen Beckler spoke of the courage of Helen Keller.
Helen Keller once said Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. she said. This statement was made by a blind, deaf woman that did not climb mountains or sail the seas, but simply learned to speak.
Now that high school has ended for the graduates, Beckler said its time to learn a life lesson.
Take a minute and figure out how much you enjoyed or detested your own high school experience, she said. Did you dare? Did you talk with everyone you were interested in? Did you participate in every activity you wanted to?
She said anyone that did had a remarkable experience.
Building friendships, expanding your perspectives and learning about yourself; if you didnt enjoy yourself so much, then realize it now: all the options available to you...Dont let anything hold you back.
Beckler said that from now on, graduates would no longer be interacting with people molding them in a childhood image.
The world at large is expecting big things from us, she said. Interest encourages us to do, but enthusiasm drives us to accomplish. You do change the world around you whether you try to or not, so you might as well be enthusiastic about what you do.

Plant, Laurus genus

Articles from Britannica encyclopedias for elementary and high school students.
- laurel - Children's Encyclopedia (Ages 8-11)
Many types of flowering plant are known as laurels. The true laurel is a shrub or a small tree that is also called the bay laurel or sweet bay. It belongs to a large family of plants known as the laurel family. Some of the other plants called laurels belong to this family, but others are in different families.
- laurel - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
One of the most spectacular of wild shrubs is the laurel. Its masses of pink, crimson, or white blossoms may blanket whole mountainsides and tinge great marshy areas with rich color. The laurels are hardy evergreen shrubs. The flowers grow in clusters. Each blossom is saucer-shaped with five lobes. There are five sepals and one pistil. Ten stamens curve outward and over from the center of the blossom, their tips (anthers) hidden in pouches below the rim of the flower. At the touch of an insect, the anthers spring out of their pouches and dust the visitor with pollen. Thus the insect fertilizes the plants as it travels from flower to flower. There are several kinds of laurels in North America, all members of the heath family, Ericaceae.

'Twas Christmas Eve at The Chasseur
Doors open at 4pm. Offering our Full Menu and Happy Hour Drink Specials ALL Night!
But until then, a little Christmas Eve joy for your holiday pleasure….
'Twas the night before Christmas,
when all through The Chasseur,
ALL the creatures were stirring,
especially Mike Z the Drink Master.
The beers were all tapped from the kegs with such care,
In hopes that all the neighbors soon would be there.
The music was bursting with holiday cheer,
While visions of Christmas Vacation on the flat screens were near;
The Neighbors in Ugly Sweaters, and Z in his Santa cap,
Had just settled on their pints Blue Mountain Lights Out Holiday Ale on tap,
When out on the sidewalk there arose such a clatter,
We sprang from our stools to see what was the matter.
Away to the windows we flew like a flash,
But nothing to see here just someone quite smashed.
The night was quite warm for the end of December
So we've only got visions of past snowy Eve's we try to remember;
When what to our wondering eyes should appear
But a menu with food to go along with our beer,
With a bevy of items, so awesomely sick,
We knew in a moment we should order some quick!
More rapid than eagles the courses did came,
And Mike Z whistled and shouted and called them by name:
"Duck Fat Tots! Steak & Egg! A Charcuterie plate!"
"Here's your Crab Mac & Cheese for your hot little date!"
"Meatloaf! Sour Beef & Dumplings! And my favorite of all…"
"Bacon Cheeseburger, Fried Chicken, and a juicy Filet Mignon!"
As beasts full of hunger who've been starved for some time,
We took to our food with a glint in our eye,
One bite, and then two, and from that moment we knew,
The Chasseur! We loved spending our Christmas Eve with you!
And then, in a twinkling, we heard with our ears
The clinking of glasses, "It's time for a cheers."
As we drew up our heads and were turning around,
Down in front of us came a hefty shot with a bound.
It was icy and cold, and it smelled minty and fresh,
"Thanks to you, all our neighbors! You all are the best!"
A bundle of giggles escaped from our mouths,
And we felt like a big family all gathered around.
Then we looked to our Bartender, or Z as we called him,
Oh what a swell guy and those drinks, he sure could pour 'em!
His eyes, how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was dyed white as the snow.
He had a broad face and a round little belly
That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was friendly and fun, a right jolly old elf,
And we laughed when we saw him, in spite of ourselves.
A wink in his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave us know that he'd get us quite bent.
He spoke the good word, and went straight to his work,
And filled all our drinks and then offered dessert.
He soon gave the signal, it was getting to be that time,
We'd all have to go home but oh, we were flying!
We gathered our coats and Mike Z gave a whistle,
And away we all went like the down of a thistle.
But we heard him exclaim, ere he closed the doors tight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!"

Eduard Flipse / Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra
Reissue Producer and Audio Restoration Engineer Mark Obert-Thorn
Special thanks to Nathan Brown, Charles Niss and Don Tait for providing source material
Anyone objectively preparing a list of great conductors is unlikely to include or even think of Eduard Flipse, the Dutch conductor born in 1896, who died in 1973. He was an adventurous musician, a champion of contemporary Dutch composers and someone who was conducting Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring and Alban Berg's Violin Concerto at the earliest opportunity. Flipse enjoyed a long tenure as Principal Conductor of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, from 1930 to 1962, which was followed by a shorter spell at the Antwerp Philharmonic Orchestra, from 1961 to 1970.
Flipse was born into an artistic family. His grandfather was a goldsmith and his father, when away from his occupation as a tailor, was a church organist and a conductor of choirs. Eduard followed his father with these musical activities. In his early student days Flipse was aware of the music that was contemporary to him, not least by Ravel and Debussy, and he would take lessons with the composer Albert Roussel in Paris where he became acquainted with such figures as Darius Milhaud, Arthur Honegger and Francis Poulenc. Flipse also graduated as a talented pianist, establishing himself in Rotterdam as a piano teacher and choral conductor. His training had been thorough and was completed by his appointment as the 'second conductor' of the Rotterdam Philharmonic for three years before he was elected its Principal Conductor.
Flipse was an adventurous programmer as well as a stoic defender and re-builder of his Rotterdam orchestra during the Nazi-occupied war years, not least in 1940 when Allied bombing destroyed the Rotterdam Philharmonic's library and numerous instruments, yet within a month the orchestra and Flipse were giving outdoor concerts to provide spiritual nourishment for the city. Nevertheless, having remained loyal to the Philharmonic musicians, but with a possible association to a league of people that had supported the German army in Russia tarnishing his reputation, Flipse's position was questioned and after the war he was banned from conducting until 5 May 1948, a decision that was successfully appealed against in November 1946.
On this release, Flipse is heard conducting two of Mahler's symphonies at concert performances. From the 1955 Holland Festival, Symphony No. 6 receives a serious, determined and searching account, some infelicities of playing notwithstanding. If the non-repeat of the first movement's exposition disappoints, Flipse's tempo, which evinces a sense of struggle, is apt, and allows paragraphs of contrasted music to emerge as a symphonic design. With any temptation to sensationalise the music avoided, the first movement emerges in triumph with no glibness yet also with no lack of variety. There follows the slow movement, surely the correct place for this deeply beautiful and ecstatic creation, treated here by Flipse as a flowing and serene meditation after the eventual triumph of the first movement.
Yet, the positioning of the middle movements has long been the subject of debate. Before Symphony No. 6 was given its first performance, folio and study scores were published, which documented the middle movement order as Scherzo-Andante. Three weeks before the première, Mahler had the symphony read through in Vienna under his direction, when he then decided that the correct middle-movement order should be Andante–Scherzo. Mahler conducted the world première in Essen on 27 May 1906, with the middle movements given in the order of Andante–Scherzo. Mahler also instructed publishers C.F. Kahnt to insert an erratum slip into the unsold copies of the score detailing the correct movement order, and to republish the scores and booklet with the approved order, which Kahnt did in November 1906. It may be taken that Mahler was now definitive as to the Andante-Scherzo order. The earliest performances of the Sixth, under Mahler and other conductors, all had the slow movement placed second. In 1916, Willem Mengelberg, one of Mahler's most famous champions, had conducted the Dutch première of the Sixth, also with the Andante second. A few years later, when proposing a second performance, the conductor asked his cousin Karel to write the programme note. Karel found a copy of the original score with the erratum slip missing and queried the correct order of the middle movements. The conductor telegraphed Alma, Mahler's widow (who is portrayed musically as the second subject of the first movement of the Sixth Symphony). Her reply, "first Scherzo, then Andante", was taken by Willem Mengelberg as justification enough to change the composer's explicit instructions to Scherzo-Andante. Yet Mahler himself always conducted the middle movements in the order of Andante-Scherzo, the order that Flipse here retains in 1955, but in just a few years time from then, in 1963, the first editor of the Critical Edition of the International Gustav Mahler Society, Erwin Ratz, would publish the Sixth with the Scherzo placed second.
Continuing with Flipse's performance, the correctly placed Scherzo, as the third movement, is given with earthly pleasure and musical adeptness that avoids some sections seeming static. The vast finale, the hero's doom, when he (Mahler being very subjective and fatalistic) is finally struck down, is brought off with gripping deliberation, apprehension and optimism entwined, the protagonist battling off foes until defeat is fully stared in the face. Although the recorded sound of this performance may be limited and the playing not in the super-virtuoso league, it says much for Flipse's focused conducting and his appreciation of the music that this account of Mahler's Sixth Symphony so absorbs the attention, crucial tempos and tempo-relationships in particular being particularly well judged.
From a year earlier is music that is an even greater challenge to the broadcast technology of the time, Gustav's Mahler's Symphony No. 8, the so-called Symphony of a Thousand, which had first been heard in Munich on 12 September 1910 with the composer conducting, who would also lead a second performance on the following day. The work's sobriquet was the invention of Mahler's publicist and did not enchant the composer; nevertheless the nickname has stuck to this very ambitious work. At those first performances there were two choruses of 250 each, with 350 children, and an orchestra of 146 players. Add in the required eight vocal soloists for a total of 1,004 musicians. This is Mahler's oratorio symphony (Das Lied von der Erde is his song-cycle symphony), the first movement concerned with the power of creation, the second (a setting of the final scene of Goethe's Faust) to do with human love. The words for the first movement are from a medieval text, Veni, Creator Spiritus, Mahler's setting of the original Latin (initiated by an organ) striding forward, reflecting as appropriate, and transforming to blazing drama and a transcendental conclusion. If the first movement may be akin to a choral symphony on its own terms, Symphony No. 8's second (and last) movement is the oratorical part of the work in which the soloists are kept busy, yet Mahler is also clearly demarcating a slow movement, scherzo and finale within the overall structure, the latter not far removed from the effect of its counterpart in Symphony No. 2 (Resurrection) and which Mahler described (to Mengelberg) thus: "Try to imagine the whole universe beginning to ring and resound. These are no longer human voices, but planets and suns revolving." As a whole, this movement traces from dark to light, from the secluded, through Faust's redemption, and to a final divine vision—and to emphasize that this is indeed a symphony, music from the opening movement returns to conclude the work.
There is real fervency in this performance, the music then rare, a special occasion, and one senses that all those taking part were possessed by it. Flipse leads a flexible and glowing account, one that is also very attentive to details and points of articulation, leading to a wonderfully majestic and jubilant projection of the first movement's final bars. The vast Goethe-inspired second movement radiates atmosphere, a journey of significance, unerringly charted by Flipse, sometimes with stillness, sometimes with urgency, but bound by musical logic all leading to the life-enhancing and—pace Mahler—inter-planetary elation. Today Mahler symphonies come at us from every angle—something to relish or to be deplored—but it says something that more than fifty years later, Eduard Flipse and his performers show a perception of and devotion to these two Mahler symphonies that remains with something personal and revealing to impart.
Colin Anderson
Producer's Note
The live recording of the Eighth Symphony has several flaws in the master tape, including one noticeable edit (from a rehearsal or another performance) just before the chorus' final peroration in Part II, and two instances of momentary pitch fluctuation.In addition, there is a momentary dropout on the original tape toward the end of the Sixth Symphony; and during the quiet passages of Part II of the Eighth, birds can be heard chirping in the background—a touch that probably would have delighted the nature-loving Mahler.

Food and Drug Administration Approval of a Second Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine
The Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP) and the Committee on Infectious Diseases, American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), recommend that children routinely receive a series of five doses of vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis before age 7 years (1,2). On December 17, 1991, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) prepared and distributed by Lederle Laboratories (Pearl River, New York) as ACEL-IMUNE\T * (3). On February 7, 1992, ACIP issued a supplementary statement on the use of DTaP (4), and the AAP did so on April 15 (5).
On August 21, 1992, the FDA approved licensure of a second DTaP product, prepared and distributed as Tripedia\T by Connaught Laboratories, Inc. (Swiftwater, Pennsylvania). As with ACEL-IMUNE\T, Tripedia\T is licensed only for use as the fourth and/or fifth dose(s) for children aged 15 months through 6 years (i.e., before the seventh birthday) who have previously been vaccinated against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis with three doses of whole-cell diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine (DTP) and is not licensed for the initial three-dose series in infants and children; whole-cell DTP should continue to be used for these initial doses. Whole-cell DTP continues to be an acceptable alternative for the fourth and/or fifth dose(s).
The following evidence supports the use of Tripedia\T after the initial three-dose series of whole-cell DTP in infants:
when used for the fourth and fifth doses is comparable to that of whole-cell DTP (unpublished manufacturer's data).
2. A randomized, placebo-controlled clinical efficacy trial in Sweden in 1985-1987 demonstrated efficacy when two doses of a pertussis vaccine similar to the formulation in Tripedia\T were given to children starting at ages 5-11 months (an age older than that recommended for initiating whole-cell DTP vaccination in the United States) (6).
3. The rates of local reactions, fever, and other common systemic symptoms following receipt of Tripedia\T inoculations when used for the fourth and fifth doses are lower than those following whole-cell DTP vaccination (unpublished manufacturer's data). An updated statement from ACIP will be issued as an MMWR Recommendations and Reports (7).

Titans LB Colin McCarthy out again with concussion
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP)
Tennessee middle linebacker Colin McCarthy will miss his second consecutive game because of a concussion, and his sixth overall, when the Titans visit the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
McCarthy was held out of practice Friday after practicing some Wednesday and Thursday.
''We're not happy with here he's at right now, and it's probably good to rest him for another week,'' coach Mike Munchak said. ''He's progressing, but with more activity, he's just not ready to play in a football game. . He needs to be a little better than he is right now in order to play in a game on Sunday. So we just ruled him out.''
McCarthy, a defensive captain, missed four games previously this season because of to a sprained right ankle.
''It's been a tough year for him. It's been frustrating for Colin and for the team,'' Munchak said.
But left tackle Michael Roos returned to practice Friday with his sprained right knee and is questionable. Munchak expects Roos to play against the Colts, and the Titans need him as the only starter from the offensive line from training camp not on injured reserve.
The Titans (4-8) also ruled out receiver Damian Williams with a hamstring injury. The Titans promoted receiver Michael Preston from the practice squad Friday and waived fullback Collin Mooney.
Defensive end Kamerion Wimbley (toe) is questionable along with running back Jamie Harper (ankle) and receiver Lavelle Hawkins (ankle). Jake Locker (left shoulder) is probable after practicing all week along with tight end Jared Cook (neck) and receiver Kenny Britt (knee).

In the BravesFTW Preseason Preview our writers put little faith in the Braves bench. Could you blame us? After losing Omar Infante and Matt Diaz, two of the top substitutes in the National League, the Braves were going to have to rely some on young, unproven players off the bench.
Sure, we accounted for Eric Hinske and his professional bat. The Braves have the best backup catcher in the game in David Ross, as well. While Brooks Conrad's glove scared us we were fairly confident that he could provide some pop as well. But after those three, the Braves have had to rely on a combination of Matt Young, Brandon Hicks, Wilkin Ramirez, Joe Mather, Diory Hernandez, and JulioLugo.
Young and Hernandez have spent just as much time at Triple-A Gwinnett as they have Atlanta this season. Mather is no longer with the team after he chose free agency when the Braves designated him for assignment in June.
Lugo, Hicks, and Ramirez are a combined 7-for-52 (.135) on the season. Four of those hits belong toRaimrez.
In pinch hit situations 14 Braves players are a combined 28-for-124 (.226) on the season. That places the Braves at No. 14 in Major League Baseball in pinch hit average. But those 28 pinch hits are the sixth-most of any team in the majors.
BravesFTW writers gave the Braves bench a C-grade coming into the 2011 season. Based upon those pinch hit numbers, and the combo of David Ross and Eric Hinske as two of the top off-the-bench players in the game, it would appear that we vastly underrated this bench.
Yes, the black hole that Hicks, Lugo, Young, and Hernandez create when they have to fill-in occasionally is noticeable. But being able to stick Hinske or Ross in the lineup without missing a beat is a major plus. Conrad has been no slouch off the bench this season either.
With those three bullets and Wilkin Ramirez' .500 average as a pinch-hitter, this Braves bench has solidified itself as one of the best in the game throughout the first half. If GM Frank Wren makes a move for another bat, as many expect him to do, this bench could wind up playing a pivotal role in a memorable October run.

NY seals 1st state gun laws since Newtown massacre
It was agreed upon exactly a month since the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy.
"It is well-balanced, it protects the Second Amendment," said Senate Republican leader Dean Skelos of Long Island.
Cuomo said he wanted quick action to avoid a run on assault weapons and ammunition. He estimates there are already about 1 million assault weapons in New York state.
Republican Sen. Greg Ball called that political opportunism in a rare criticism of the popular and powerful governor seen by his supporters as a possible candidate for president in 2016.
"We haven't saved any lives tonight, except one: the political life of a governor who wants to be president," said Ball who represents part of the Hudson Valley. "We have taken an entire category of firearms that are currently legal that are in the homes of law-abiding, tax paying citizens. ... We are now turning those law-abiding citizens into criminals."
In the gun debate, one concern for New York is its major gun manufacturer upstate.
Remington Arms Co. makes the Bushmaster semi-automatic rifle that was used in the Connecticut shootings and again on Christmas Eve when the two firefighters were slain in Webster. The two-century-old Remington factory in Ilion in central New York employs 1,000 workers in a Republican Senate district.
The bill was the first test of the new coalition in control of the Senate, which has long been run by Republicans opposed to gun control measures. The chamber is now in the hands of Republicans and five breakaway Democrats led by Klein, an arrangement expected to result in more progressive legislation.
Former Republican Sen. Michael Balboni said that for legislators from the more conservative upstate region of New York, gun control "has the intensity of the gay marriage issue." In 2011, three of four Republicans who crossed the aisle to vote for same-sex marriage ended up losing their jobs because of their votes.

Blade Runner Recreated As A Lego Set
Tyler, who goes byLegohaulic on flickr was commissioned to create the 1982 sci-fi film with legos. After talk about a possible new "Blade Runner" coming out, there's no better time to try to figure out who is the replicant in this dystopian lego world.

A federal district court in Florida granted a preliminary injunction prohibiting five former employees of Mainline Information Systems from soliciting certain customers and using confidential information in violation of their employment agreements and prohibiting the employees' new employer and its senior vice president for sales from assisting the employees in any disclosure of Mainline's confidential information or any improper solicitation of Mainline's customers. In Mailne Information Systems, Inc. v. Tad C. Northcott, et. al. the court found that Mainline had established that it was likely to prevail on its claims and to suffer irreparable harm from further breaches by the former employees of their employment agreements with Mainline. The record was clear, according to the court, that the employees had violated their employment agreement.
The former employees began working for a direct competitor, Siruis Computer Solutions, after they resigned from Mainline. The employees were all prohibited under their Mainline employment agreements from disclosing Mainline's confidential information for two years after their termination dates and from directly or indirectly soliciting their former Mainline customers or any Mainline employees for one year after their termination dates. The court specifically noted that one of the employees violated his employment agreement by having other employees at the company "front" the solicitations while he "worked in the background." The court also held that Sirius's senior vice president for sales had assisted the former employees in soliciting their Mainline customers and participated in a joint effort to improperly use Mainline's confidential information.
Notably, the agreements explicitly stated that if the employees violated any of these restrictive covenants, then the restriction provision would automatically be extended for one year from the date on which the employee permanently ceased violation or for one year from the date of entry by a court of an order enforcing the covenant, whichever was later. One of the former employees admitted that after one year at Sirius, he began soliciting his former Mainline customers because he believed his non-solicitation restriction had lapsed. The court, however, relied on the continuing violation provision and held that because the employee had violated his non-solicitation restriction during the year following his termination, he was actually prohibited from soliciting customers for one year from the last violation.
This case highlights two important considerations for non-competition, non-solicitation, or confidential information provisions: (1) the "direct or indirect" language, which protects a company even when a former employee is facilitating solicitations by a coworker; and (2) the continuing violation provision, which extends the restricted period if the Court finds a violation. These provisions can provide employers with vital remedies against employees who breach their restrictive covenants.

|Look up Grannus in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (April 2013)
In the Celtic polytheism of classical antiquity, Grannus (also Granus Mogounus Amarcolitanus) was a deity associated with spas, healing thermal and mineral springs, and the sun.[citation needed] He was regularly identified with Apollo as Apollo Grannus. His worship was not infrequently in conjunction with Sirona, Mars and other deities.
In the early twentieth century, the name was connected with the Irish grian, 'sun'.[1] Along these lines, the god was often linked to the Deò-ghrèine and the character Mac Gréine of Irish mythology. However, the Irish grian, 'sun' is thought to be derived from Proto-Celtic *greinā 'sun' and the Proto-Celtic *greinā is unlikely to have developed into Grannos in Gaulish and other Continental Celtic languages. Derivation from a Proto-Celtic root *granno- 'beard' (cf. Middle Welsh grann 'chin; beard, hairs' and Old Irish grend 'beard, hairs') has enjoyed some scholarly support, from which Jürgen Zeidler dissents, proposing a different root *granno- with "probable reference to the sun's heat and healing properties".[2] Ranko Matasović, in his Etymological Dictionary of Proto-Celtic, has tentatively proposed that the root of this theonym comes from Proto-Celtic *gwrenso-, which means "heat";[3] however, Proto-Celtic initial gw- yields b- in Gaulish (cf. the name Brennus).[citation needed]
At Monthelon[disambiguation needed], Grannus is also called Amarcolitanus ("The one with a piercing or far-reaching look"[4]) and at Horbourg-Wihr Mogounus.[5]
In all of his centres of worship where he is assimilated to a Roman god, Grannus was equated with Apollo,[5] presumably in Apollo's role as a healing or solar deity. In Trier, he is identified more specifically with Apollo Phoebus.[5]
Centres of worship[edit]
One of the god's most famous cult centres was at Aquae Granni (now Aachen, Germany). Aachen means 'water' in Old High German, a calque of the Roman name of "Aquae Granni".[6] The town's hot springs with temperatures between 45 °C and 75 °C lay in the somewhat inhospitably marshy area around Aachen's basin-shaped valley region.[6] Aachen first became a curative centre in Hallstatt times.[6] The Roman Emperor Caracalla (188 AD to 217 AD) visited the shrine of 'the Celtic healing-god' Grannus during the war with Germany in about 215.[citation needed]
In the early twentieth century, the god was said to have still been remembered in a chant sung round bonfires in Auvergne, in which a grain sheaf is set on fire, and called Granno mio, while the people sing, "Granno, my friend; Granno, my father; Granno, my mother".[1] However, granno may simply be a derivative of an Occitan word of Latin origin meaning "grain" (compare Auvergnat gran "grain", grana "seed" and Languedocien grano, from Latin grānum "grain").
A 1st century AD Latin inscription from a public fountain in Limoges mentions a Gaulish ten-night festival of Grannus (Latinized as decamnoctiacis Granni):
- NORIGIS F(ilius) VERG(obretus) AQV
- NOCTIACIS GRANNI D(e) S(ua) P(ecunia) D(edit)[7]
Translation: "The Vergobretus Postumus son of Dumnorix gave from his own money the Aqua Martia ("Water of Martius [or Mars]", an aqueduct[8]) for the ten-night festival of Grannus".
Divine entourage[edit]
The name Grannus is sometimes accompanied by those of other deities in the inscriptions. In Augsburg, he is found with Diana and/or Sirona and again with Sirona at Rome, Bitburg and Baumberg.[5] At Ennetach he is with Nymphs, at Faimingen with Hygieia and Cybele and at Grand with Sol.[5] At Limoges, he is found with Mars and at Astorga with Serapis, Isis, Mars-Sagatus and Core.[5]

This book has ambitious goals. It is intended to be a first course in analysis and to be a transition-to-proofs course. It is also intended to be suitable for students whether or not they have already had calculus. (The author seems ambivalent on this last point, saying on p. xi that "This book aims to serve as a transition from calculus to rigorous analysis" but on p. xii that "Familiarity with calculus is not a prerequisite for this book."
Overall I was not very happy with the book. The biggest reason is that it doesn't flow well; it reads like a compendium of theorems (and proofs), gathered into chapters of related results, but having no real path or goals. For example, it states and proves the Baire Category Theorem, but does not use it for anything. It states and proves the Contraction Mapping Theorem, but only uses it once, to prove the existence of solutions of differential equations, and that usage is 120 pages later.
I also think the book overuses symbolism for students at this level. For example, Theorem 9.10 is the familiar result that every continuous function on a closed interval is Riemann integrable, but the entire theorem statement here is "\(C(a, b) \subseteq R(a, b)\)." I also think the book is weak on counterexamples; these are important for transition courses to show the pitfalls that rigor is supposed to protect us from.
I think it probably is possible to learn analysis from this book without first studying calculus, but the big drawback is that you wouldn't know why any of the theorems are important or where they came from. The approach concentrates on abstract spaces such as metric spaces and function spaces rather than the real line and Euclidean spaces. For example, the entire discussion of continuity is in the context of metric spaces, with barely any mention of functions on the real line. The Intermediate Value Theorem is proved there, but as a consequence of connectedness, without explaining explicitly the importance of the completeness of the reals.
Very Bad Feature: No index. It's difficult to use the book for reference, because it's hard to find the theorems. There's also no index of symbols, which in some cases makes it hard to decipher the theorems if you haven't read the material leading up to them.
On the plus side, the book does have numerous good exercises that test the student's grasp and cover some advanced topics, and it does give thorough coverage of much of classical analysis, including some of the more advanced areas that would never be touched on in calculus. It also has unconventional approaches to some theorems, which is refreshing in most cases. These approaches are alarming in a few cases, for example where the Lebesgue integral is defined in terms of the Henstock-Kurzweil integral and there is no measure theory (apart from a discussion of sets of measure zero in connection with Riemann integrability).
Another book with similar goals that does a better job of meeting them is Ross's Elementary Analysis: The Theory of Calculus. The coverage is similar though less extensive. There are also many good introductory analysis books that do not attempt to also serve as a transition, such as Boas's Primer of Real Functions.

Brian Burke shares thoughts on current Leafs
night folks maybe no storm in pei tomorrow lol
jannsens health, lind being able to hit for avg and power and healthy morrow are so key to even being able to think wildcard
Escobar is a good fast ball hitter...this could be bad. Keep feeding sliders
How does Santos walk that last batter
Blue Jays trying to give this one away.
So Dion must have had a lot to say to the ref . CrossCheck 2mins, Unsportmanlike 2mins .10 min misconduct and a game misconduct
Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 47s
Video link for those who haven't seen the Murray hit on Kostka. http://bit.ly/1h0uDQu
Played in a Flames charity poker tourney last month and got to speak with Burke as he was there. He is a beauty, totally classy about his time with Leafs, has plenty of nice things to say about Nonis. A pro, and he likes to toss back the beers, tops in my book.
Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 40s
Murray's match penalty for hit on Kostka carries an indefinite suspension pending a hearing. Montreal plays Ottawa on Friday.
Friday is Erie at SSM, and London at Guelph. Hope our prospects get some good experience.
Peterborough Petes @PetesOHLhockey 6m
Petes WIN! 2-1 OT victory over the @KingstonFronts. @ritchboiii from @AnthonyStefano & @JMacdonald_11. WATCH: http://instagram.com/p/mRRRIXAswJ/
Murray was basically going to miss Kostka (up and skating to room now) and threw out some elbow to catch a piece. Got mostly chin.
Oh man, Mike Kostka's in some real trouble in Tampa. Stretcher out.
North Bay big win over Niagara after being down 3-1.
Nick Ritchie scores in OT to give the Peterborough Petes a Game 7 victory in Kingston, they were down 3-0 in the series.
@TheCanucksnaphook thing is we get Boston on the 2nd game of a back too back they play Detroit the night before
@TheCanucksnaphook Murray's a dirty fuck...not sure what his record is, but he's getting 5 at least.
@PEIleafnation I really don't like their line-up this year. They killed the farm system going for it last year too. Tough spot...
@ingy56 don't waste the kids start...we hope
@rustynail That looks like leadership to me! Phaneuf defending the crest and not taking crap from the ref
@ingy56 TSn videos never work for me for some reason. I use to think it was just on my old Mac but it doesn't work on my new HP either.
@Optimustic nuts that 2 of the best 3 teams in the O play each other in the 2nd round
@loomx Yep. The quote is probably true. And it still somehow excuses the team from its struggles
@ingy56 link to this hit
@ingy56 Crap....hope he's OK.
@golieguy19 Niagara is out now eh, I believe that was game 7.
@ingy56 HOLY SHIT! Right on, Peterborough brother.
@djamon @TheCanucksnaphook no suspensions before this one
@Hammertownleaffan Their starting staff are really terrible...expansion team terrible, IMO. They may eke out a couple more wins than last year, but they'll be out of it by the AS Game.
Then AA gets fired.
@Hammertownleaffan @PEIleafnation yah stars are lined up for long year and those 3 things I mentioned have to all happen just to have a shot...
@wendelsfist @rustynail how many times have we seen the same amount of crosschecking and more with goalie out and no penalty called?
@Pent_House @ingy56 We need those guys like Kostka that are fighting their asses off to stay in the line up
@Pent_House @ingy56 Looked like a clear cut chicken wing elbow to me.
@Tim Horton @ingy56 James Mirtle @mirtle 3m
Tough to see Mike Kostka laid out like this. Great guy. Suspension coming I bet http://twitpic.com/e026d3 via @PeteBlackburn
@Optimustic @golieguy19 not good for Verhaeghe
@Optimustic @golieguy19 Sure was
@Alec Brownscombe @ingy56 Only the 4th time in OHL history the comeback from 0-3 has been done. Oshawa up next.
@TheCanucksnaphook @Bon Scott was a Leaf fan So what you're saying then is that it's all your fault. You're not allowed to leave. Ever.
@djamon @HammertownleaffanYa the rotation is really bad. Dickey is a complete bum.
@PEIleafnation @HammertownleaffanHere's hoping!
@Pent_House @ingy56 Probably not his intention but the head was the principal point of contact and that's the main criteria these days.
@rockydundas @Optimustic @Tim Horton @golieguy19 Somewhat, but the way we lost game 7 was the difference.
@Optimustic @Tim Horton@golieguy19
Sorta like us last year against Boston?
@Tim Horton @Optimustic @golieguy19 No, but the team wasn't expected to win against North Bay, so going 7 games is somewhat on an achievement in itself.

Union Minister for Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation Uma Bharti today said that the whole country is committed to ensure the continuous and uninterrupted flow of the River Ganga from Gangotri to the Ganga Sagar.
Speaking at a Ganga Manthan event, Bharti said we will work with full sincerity on the outcome of this dialogue. She said, "We have had a series of discussions with various stakeholders on the issue, and will soon arrive at some positive outcome". The minister said that she has noticed that people from every section of society, irrespective of their faiths, are committed to this cause. The minister said there won't be any shortage of funds for the Ganga Rejuvenation Programme.
Union Tourism and Culture Minister Shripada Yasso Naik gave an overview of the plans for the development of river Ganga as major tourism destination. He said tourism spots will be developed all along the banks of the Ganga from Gangotri to Ganga Sagar.
Naik said his ministry is exploring the possibilities of introducing Shikaras on Ganga on the pattern of Kashmir. Union Minister for Road Transport, Highways and Shipping Nitin Gadkari said that the government proposes to conduct dredging of the river to provide a width of 45 meters and five meters draft (depth) to enable navigation of small ships between Varanasi and Hoogly in the first stage of its development. He said barrages are proposed to be constructed at every 100 kilometers on the river. Gadkari said his ministry has sent a proposal in this regard to the World Bank for the development of the Allahabad- Haldia corridor. The day long dialogue was organized by National Mission for Clean Ganga which is being attended by large number of delegates from different parts of the country and abroad.
The dialogue will have four different sessions on "Ganga and Sanskriti" (for Spiritual Leaders), "Public Participation for Ganga" (for Public Representatives and Administrators), "Aviral and Nirmal Ganga" (for NGOs and Environmentalists) and "Comprehensive and Sustainable Solutions" (for Academicians and Technocrats).
