Will they even come out in Gs size?
March 10, 2014 BY Brendan Dunne / 23
All sneakerheads need is a passing glance at the new Jordan Future to be able to recognize the Air Jordan XI DNA therein. Yes the sneaker borrows the bottoms from Tinker's AJ 11 masterpiece, but how much borrowing does it do in terms of colorways? This new photo set attempts to make some correlations by comparing the Air Jordan 11 "Bred" to the upcoming black/infrared version of the Future and the Air Jordan 11 "Space Jam" to the glow in the dark version. Do you think the comparison is fair? Let us know after you browse the side-by-side shots with us after the break and remember that the Jordan Future is launching this weekend.

Will they even come out in Gs size?
I like the 11's more but im gonna cop some future to.
No comparison 11s are way hotter
Damn! someone has been telling SN to REALLY push these Jordan Future.
Notice how the price is nowhere to be seen. That is what really should be emphasized here. Then people would be turned off. Bad for business I guess.
I don't understand the "future" part. I mean, this is just pure laziness if you ask me. The sole from a retro 11, and then a woven upper from a nike free or flyknit?
lol, the soles are exactly the same except for being translucent.
The difference is that the sole on the future in more solid in color while the 11's are much more transculent
Not a bad shoe, just would never see myself dropping $185 for it. Things are about to heat up sneaker wise and these unfortunately didn't make my cut. However, if they feel just half as comfortable as they look JB could be on to something.
Still trying to cop me some Space Jams at a reasonable price.
only thing this thread showed me is that i NEED some space jams..
Hot garbage from JB on that "Future"
futures on worst behavior
No comparison!! But posssssssibly worth the cop. The ticket on these is steep though!
Nice shoe to do everyday stuff in please don't try to do customs or nothing crazy though people just keep it as much as a lifestyle shoe as possible!
Please.Ain't no comparison lol
The AJ11s are better, the Futures are not that bad either.
The soles look so different on the Future's.
They look pretty good
@Nikes_Jordans_ word for word what I was thinking
I got a size 10.5 DS og space jams for sale what u tryin to pay
Got an og DS pair for sale size 10.5
I don't wear 10.5

I don't think it's a matter of more or less influence so much as it's a matter of accuracy.
In fact, I think this whole exercise would do better with multivariable categorization, in the style of let's say Meyers-Brigg:
1) Where do they prefer to win their points? Baseline or net?
2) Do they take points, or do they collect donations (plenty of net rushers win on pressure, for example)
3) Does their body type match their ideal style of play (ie. Lindsey Davenport: no)
4) Can they adjust game plans midmatch? Do they even have a game plan? Do they make their living on instinct? (Wilander? Gonzo? Rios?)
5) Can they grind?
6) Etc.
I bet we could think of AT LEAST 5-10 more variable just off the top of our heads.
So does it work? Let's just take the variables above, and choose the last option for each: Net rusher, collecting donations, non-ideal body type for S&V, living on instinct, probably doesn't grind out matches. That description makes me think of Leander Paes.
Traditional anti-S&V dogma may or may not work against Paes. Knowing he doesn't like to grind, or is just a touch too short or short of reach at net, making him think about it - all that stuff would be at least as effective as the good old mindless, boring, return to his feet stand by.
How about picking all the first options? Baseliner, wins points, body type better for roaming the backcourt, can adjust plans midmatch, will grind if they need to. Sounds like a tough customer, but there's still a ton of difference between Wilander, Chang, Ginepri, Agassi, etc., which tells me there are other things we're still not considering.
You said it yourself, simply describing someone as a "baseliner" gets you Conchita Martinez, Andre Agassi, and every possible combination in between. You don't want just a hierarchy of categories and subcategories - you want a matrix.
Nobody paid for the opinions I express.

Christmas in Action adds project day
Christmas in Action, a local nonprofit organization, is adding a second project day, Sept. 22, to its schedule this year to use additional grant money and meet a high project goal.
Christmas in Action provides home repairs to low-income elderly and low-income disabled homeowners who have owned their home at least one year and live in Wichita County.
Cassie Ahearn, executive director, said the organization had so many recipients this year there weren't enough volunteers to complete all the projects.
"My goal is to hit 100 projects this year," Ahearn said.
The first project day, April 28, completed 62 projects, and 68 total projects have been completed this year.
Christmas in Action does not complete all work with volunteers.
Projects that require a licensed professional — roof repair, drain lines and electrical work — are contracted out.
"We go into a home and assess problems and make a list so when a team comes in to pick a project they're limited only by their experience. Just because everything is on that list, we understand some of those things (volunteers) might not be able to do," Ahearn said.
Ahearn is looking for volunteers to help with the second project day, scheduled for Sept. 22. Civic organizations, businesses, churches, sports teams or any other group wishing to
volunteer is more than welcome.
"We get so much help from Sheppard (Air Force Base), and I really appreciate that. Everybody goes everywhere else when our own community needs so much help. If anybody wants to come back and do a project, I welcome them," Ahearn said.
Funding for Christmas in Action is received through business and individual donations and grant funding.
"We've spent about $71,000. Other organizations have partnered with us to help pay for the projects," Ahearn said.
Recently, the Wichita Falls City Council held a public hearing to address Community Development Block Grant funding.
Christmas in Action was included to receive $30,000 in funding through the HOME Investment Partnership Program.
A second public hearing held Aug. 7 in conjunction with a resolution, if approved, will allocate the funds.
House captain project selections are 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Aug. 28 at the Christmas in Action building, 1006 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
"It's a first come, first served. If you want a project, come that day, go through our folders and pick one out," Ahearn said.
The two weeks preceding the project date on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, tools and supplies are issued from 3-6 p.m.
"Don't try to do something you can't do. If your specialty is painting, then come paint a project. You might be able to go to three different houses and just paint, hang doors or do plumbing. If you have a specialty, then I want your specialty," Ahearn said.
Ahearn said the Wichita Falls Wildcats hockey team also was volunteering.
She said the work is hard, but at the end of the day, it's unbelievable how extremely rewarding it is.
"I have a new saying, it's like we put life back in the home, and at the same time we put life back into the families," Ahearn said.
For questions about volunteering, Christmas in Action can be reached at 696-9393.

Poetry Collections You Should Read
Ultramajic by Pilar Zeta and Jimmy Edgar
Digital Fantasy Artwork
Last night I had the opportunity to see a screening of She Said Boom – a documentary about the Canadian all girl band Fifth Column. These girls are everything I stand for and am inspired by: collaboration, feminist ethics, fighting the system, living for what you're passionate about with little concern for money. Their story inspired so many others and lead to what became the Riot Grrl movement in the 90′s. They were also intensely interested in filmmaking and created lots of experimental work with Bruce LaBruce. GB Jones is a total icon, that thick red wavy hair and perfect vamptress aesthetic. It was a great film and if you have the chance to see it in your city, you must!
The Chapess Zine Launch at Doomed Gallery London
Hello, London! Some of my photographs will be shown alongside some other awesome, talented ladies on behalf of The Chapess Zine at Doomed Gallery on Saturday 13th December. Hope all you London lovelies can make it! Support female artists coming together to say something and create a space of progress.
Each issue showcases the work of women of all ages from around the world, employing an open submission policy, underlining the need for opportunities for female artists to show their work, particularly those who have not taken a route of education or training which had otherwise encouraged them to do so.
So far this year I have published the work of around 60 female artists and writers and led workshops, lectures and educational sessions exploring creativity and feminist activism at a grassroots level. The exhibition at Doomed is starting to feel like the show i've been curating in my head since i was a teenager, as finally I'm in the position to be surrounded by incredible, creative women staying true to themselves, making work, having a laugh + supporting one another. - Cherry Styles
Foot Soldier
Because I'm making my way to elderly pastures, I value things like comfort more than I did when I was nineteen. I don't think I can bring myself to walk around in stilettos anymore; my logic radar goes off and decides against it.
While preparing for my New York trip, I was keeping in my mind that I'd be on foot for most of the time, wandering the rainy concrete. I'm pretty much a Clarks/TOMS advocate these days. They make comfortable shoes that are stylish in a way that I appreciate. These are some of my favorite styles right now!
Walter Van Beirendonck Spring 2015
Walter Van Beirendonck is one of those designers that really leans more into the fine art category. His presence during Paris Fashion Week is always a knockout, and always screaming in its own unique voice.
His Spring Summer 2015 collection is entitled 'Whambam' and was inspired by the lack of privacy we are having in this fast-moving world. It was all about the contrast between a dark world and paradise. The prints in this collection referred to two entirely different worlds. "I got the idea by thinking of lost paradise and desert painting. It's what they used during the war to mislead enemies." This misleading aspect was not only present in the printed items, but also in the headpieces designed by Jacques Blankwater, pointing towards the cameras. - Now Fashion
6 of Swords by Puro Instinct
My girls from the band Puro Instinct just released a new pop single called "6 of Swords" which is just so good it makes me turn into some kind of element probably found on the outer layers of Venus. CHECK IT OUT
So proud of their magick. If you like dream-pop, dirty roller skates, esoteric travels, and the light that bounces off amethyst, this just may be for you!

In Reply to: Most likely a re-design is needed. by R. Proffitt
As mentioned, the receiver is 10+ years old so it may just not be up to the task. I have only had it set up this way for about 6 months and it has always been this way, but even before with my analog TV and everything hooked up via composite it was low even then.
Note that this is only on the TV this happens, on bluray, netflix, computer, etc. the sound is OK, but I guess then it is going through the HDMI, but even at that I never thought it worked the way it should.

Hard gay is a persona of comedian and wrestler, Masaki Sumitani. Much like in the fashion of Borat, Hard Gay is a foreigner in performing skits in japan, therefore, can get away with most outrageous behaviour or comments.
Masaki Sumitani was born December 18, 1975 in Harima Prefecture, Japan. After graduating from Hyogo Prefectural Kakogawa Higashi High School, he entered Doshisha University and majored in Commerce.
Putting his degree in commerce to good use.
Introduced in 2002, as whom he finally rose to national prominence in 2005. HG is known for his skits that involve running around in various cities helping people out all the while trying to be as flamingly gay as possible, incorporating hip thrusts and shouting out various catchphrases.
The fact that Hard Gay does not portray any Japanese gay subculture also explain why the sketch was allowed to be aired in Japanese TV, which has its own code of political correctness.
Its ok, as long as he portraying a foreigner.
Sumitani's supposed homosexuality was exposed as a gimmick when he was caught in the midst of a date, with Japanese actress and swimsuit model Anna Suzuki whom he has since married and had a baby.
Mrs. Gay
This 'sei' most likely comes from the Japanese word "urusai" which is commonly translated as "shut up" or "shut the fuck up" depending on the force behind the word. Colloquially "urusai" can be said "urusei", and after that people have been shortening the word to "ussei" and "ssei", which is most likely where HG got "sei" from.
Whenever Hard Gay wants to tell someone to come after him, he turns around, bends over some, slaps his ass, and shouts out, "Come and get some!"
Hip Radar- Stars gyrating when he is close to his desired location. Works Much like a dowsing rod....only gayer.
Translation: Target acquired FOOOO!
Hip Communicator-

NTSB Raises New Concerns About Dreamliner's Lithium Ion Battery
Originally published on Fri May 23, 2014 6:04 pm
The National Transportation Safety Board is calling on the FAA to take another look at the safety of the battery used in its Dreamliners. The recommendations issued by the NTSB on Thursday call on the FAA to evaluate whether additional requirements and independent testing outside the aviation industry are needed on the lithium ion batteries used in the Boeing 787s. Incidents involving the batteries' failure caused the fleet to be grounded last year. The FAA released its own internal study earlier this year concluding that it had an effective process in place to identify and correct problems that emerged before and after certification.

Updated: March 19, 2007, 10:58 PM ETBy Len Pasquarelli | ESPN.com
Hoping to add a powerful lead blocker to their revamped backfield, the New York Giants signed Houston Texans three-year veteran fullback Vonta Leach to a restricted free agent offer sheet on Monday.
The Texans will have seven days to match the four-year offer sheet, which is worth a total of $8 million and includes $1.6 million in guarantees.
If the Texans match the offer sheet, they will assume the terms of the deal that the Giants negotiated with Leach. If the Texans decline ...

Latinos in an Aging World
Social, Psychological, and Economic Perspectives
By Ronald J. Angel, Jacqueline L. Angel
Routledge – 2015 – 340 pages
Series: Textbooks in Aging
Routledge – 2015 – 340 pages
Series: Textbooks in Aging
This book fosters a deeper understanding of the growing Latino elderly population and the implications on society. It examines post-WWII demographic and social changes and summarizes research from sociology, psychology, economics, and public health to shed light on the economic, physical, and mental well-being of older Latinos. The political and cultural implications including possible policy changes are also considered. Written in an engaging style, each chapter opens with a vignette that puts a human face on the issues. Boxed exhibits highlight social programs and policies and physical and mental health challenges that impact Latino elders. Web alerts direct readers to sites that feature more detailed information related to the chapter's issues. Each chapter also features an introduction, examples, tables, figures, a summary, and discussion questions. The self-contained chapters can be presented in any order.
Latinos in an Aging World explores:
Real world problems individuals face in dealing with poverty, immigration, and health and retirement decisions
The latest data on Latinos as compared to research on African- and Asian- Americans where appropriate
The unique historical, demographic, social, familial, and economic situations of various Latino subgroups including those from Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Cuba
How ethnicity affects one's position of wealth and power and sense of citizenship.
The consequence of life-long disadvantages and stigmatization on economic, physical, and mental well-being
The impact of one's neighborhood and the proximity to those from similar cultures on quality of life.
The introduction motivates the book and sets the stage for the entire discussion. Chapter 1 reviews the histories of the major Hispanic subgroups along with various theories as they relate to race, ethnicity, and gender that provide a conceptual framework for understanding the later chapters. Demographic, economic, and social profiles of the various Hispanic subgroups are explored in chapter 2. Next the Latino population is explored from various perspectives including the economic and social situations of men and women and their educational, marital and family, and labor force experiences. Chapter 4 examines older immigrants and their families and identifies the resources available to them in their communities that often replicate the cultural and social support system of the old country. Major health risks that older Latinos face as a result of the disadvantages they experience throughout life are examined in chapter 5. Family situations and long-term care and living arrangements of older Hispanics are examined in chapter 6. The impact of neighborhood on quality of life in terms of safety and physical and mental wellbeing is explored in chapter 7. The burden that eldercare can place upon those who bear the responsibility of their daily care is explored in chapter 8. Chapter 9 investigates the gaps in income between minority and non-Hispanic white Americans and reviews what individuals with few resources need to know about financial management. The book concludes with the social, political, and economic implications of the growing Hispanic population and the role of NGOs and other organizations in providing services to older populations.
Intended for courses on Latinos and aging, diversity, race and ethnicity, minorities and aging, adult development and aging, the psychology or sociology or politics of aging, geriatric social work, public health and aging, global aging, social or family policy, and health and society taught in the behavioral and social sciences, ethnic, or Latin American/Chicano Studies, this book also appeals to researchers and practitioners who work with Hispanic families.
"Latinos in an Aging World is an excellent resource—taking more than 30 years of the authors' combined work and research—to provide a moving, data- and theory-driven narrative with humanizing case studies that portray the experiences of the largest aging demographic group in the United States. Their narrative is refreshing and takes the reader though a wide range of topics that blend several disciplines, such as sociology, demography, psychology/mental health, health, economics, political science, and social and public policy. Rich in detail, both in its depiction of Latino cultural contexts and its analysis of demographic data on aging, the authors present an engaging, fluid, thought-provoking work." —Joyce Weil, University of Northern Colorado
"This book provides a deft account of the social science and historical scholarship on the health and well-being of the U.S. population of Hispanic heritage, especially as it ages. Beautifully written, the book sparkles with insight as it analyzes the processes generating well-being in this highly diverse population." – Guillermina Jasso, New York University, USA
"A rich blend of theoretical and empirical research covering the lives of older Hispanics in the USA. The various chapters, drawing upon a wide range of disciplines, provide a comprehensive survey of a priority area for social and public policy." – Christopher Phillipson, The University of Manchester, UK
"The book provides an authoritative compilation of key issues relevant to the health and well-being of older Latinos. By spanning across various disciplines, the book's unique, analytic perspectives are critical to understanding the health of this growing segment of the nation's population." – Ana F. Abraido-Lanza, Columbia University, USA
"Angel and Angel have provided a comprehensive look at the evolving demographics of the United States since World War II. This volume is essential for anyone interested in the future social and cultural landscape of the United States and its social policy implications." – Iveris L. Martinez, Florida International University, USA
"The authors put the topic into a global perspective, into a historical context, into the politics of the times. …Few single disciplinary scholars could take such an approach. Writing is superior. … An important contribution … all social science groups should be made aware of the volume. … I would add [this book] as a required text in … Minority and Global Aging." – Stan Ingman, University of North Texas, USA
"It is always a pleasure to read these eminent authors' work. …They deliver the content in a clear, engaging, lively style. …The book contributes significantly to its field, especially in view of updated statistics about health disparities health care reform, its global focus, and its emphasis on … the Hispanic population. The 30 year, multidisciplinary summary of research is extremely useful. …[The book features an] even-handed scholarly treatment of complex, controversial issues. I am salivating to read the rest. …It provides something unique and collates all this research in one place - a huge achievement. …I would buy it, recommend it, and adopt it. …I think it is a winner." – Brownwynne Evans, Arizona State University, USA

Kat DeLuna ft. Busta Rhymes - Run The Show
Artist: Kat DeLuna
Featuring: Busta Rhymes
Producer: Red One
Album: 9 Lives
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 29 votes )
After her summer '07 hit Whine Up with Elephant Man, and her disappointing duet with Omarion, Cut Off Time, Kat DeLuna is trying to avoid the stigma of being a one-hit wonder. For the official second single from her debut 9 Lives, Kat remixes Run The Show; similar to the original version except for a Shaka Dee verse being replaced by Busta Rhymes. While producer Red One delivers on the dancehall beat, Kat's bilingual vocals no doubt steal the show. Busta, who's been known to bring the energy since his Leaders of the New School days, does not disappoint either with a very entertaining verse. Mix it all up and Run The Show equals a dancehall-chart smash.

Introducing them to the product development process is one way to connect with consumers while taking advantage of their real-time feedback to deliver better products and succeed on the shelf.
Improving the In-Store ExperienceStore layouts and product shelving optimization are two critical factors tied to the consumer's shopping experience. The ultimate goal for both retailers and CPG companies is to design a shopping experience that exactly fits the consumer's wants and needs, allowing them to find what they want when they want it – quickly and easily – which results in increased sales.
Achieving the Perfect ShelfOne way to improve the in-store experience is to define, design and deploy a shelf space strategy leveraging Perfect Shelf, a 3D Industry Solution Experience from Dassault Systèmes that enables CPG companies and retailers to more clearly visualize, discuss, optimize and interact with shelving and store layout ideas in order to better imagine, validate and deploy optimum shopping experiences.
Perfect Shelf also enables consumers to become part of the shelf design process by allowing them to experience various store layouts and shelves virtually. CPG companies and retailers can then measure how consumer sentiment changes when modifications to the virtual shelves are made, before making any decisions on layouts or investments.
Steering Business in Real-Time: How Perfect Shelf Can Influence the In-Store ProcessThe following six stages outline how CPG companies and retailers can benefit from using Perfect Shelf in their shelving strategies:
The primary benefits include:
With Perfect Shelf, CPG companies optimize processes from end to end, allowing them to enhance their view of the product category (validated by consumer feedback), gain category leadership, increase presence and revenue, and achieve quicker time to shelf. Retailers transform insights gained from Perfect Shelf into in-store execution, resulting in enhanced revenue and profit, an improved consumer shopping experience, precision retailing across stores, operational excellence and shelf compliance.
Better, Faster, Smarter Shopping ExperiencesBy realistically simulating retail settings inside immersive, lifelike 3D environments, CPG companies and retailers can better imagine, validate and deploy optimum shopping experiences while increasing product appeal, brand and category profitability, and differentiating themselves from the competition. Consumers gain enhanced brand perception and an improved overall shopping experience. In a world where consumer is king, those brands that provide the best in-store feel will gain a significant edge in the increasingly competitive CPG industry.
Dassault Systèmes, the 3DEXPERIENCE Company, provides over 150,000 customers in more than 80 countries with virtual universes to imagine sustainable innovations. Its world-leading solutions transform the way products are designed, produced, and supported. Dassault Systèmes' collaborative solutions foster social innovation, expanding possibilities for the virtual world to improve the real world.

'Cougar Lift' Procedures Offer Menopausal Women Surgical Options to Enhance Romantic Relationships
DALLAS, Nov. 10, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — In the 70′s they burned their bras to demonstrate for equal rights. Now they're lifting and tightening their most intimate areas for better orgasms. Increasingly, women of the American Baby Boomer Generation are willing to challenge societal conventions to improve their lifestyle.
"We see more and more Boomers who want to schedule vaginal rejuvenation," says Dallas Ob-Gyn Wesley Anne Brady, M.D. "They are more informed, more prepared and more focused on the benefits of this procedure." Dr. Brady is the Medical Director of the Womens Wellness Institute of Dallas.
Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation® (LVR®) is the cosmetic surgery that lifts and strengthens the interior walls of the vagina. Specifically, LVR® is a one-hour outpatient surgical procedure that reduces the internal and external vaginal muscles and builds up the perineal body.
Also known as vaginoplasty, or vaginal landscaping, LVR® is designed to improve the sensation for both partners during sex and may lead to more frequent and intense orgasms.
Sociologists categorize the baby boom generation as the demographic of Americans born between 1946 and 1964. These women are now forty-to-sixty-years-old. They are typically more political, more professionally-motivated and more sexually-active than previous generations.
The 'Cougar' euphemism generally refers to older women who date or marry younger men. Many surgeons and elective surgery centers have coined the "Cougar Lift" term to identify an entire category of cosmetic procedures for women in this demographic who are engaged in new romantic relationships – and want to look as vibrant and youthful as they feel. The 'Cougar Lift' category includes breast enhancement, buttock lift, skin resurfacing and now – the so-called 'designer vagina'. Some estimates suggest that baby boomers now comprise more than half of all cosmetic surgery patients.
"We see women of all ages," says Dr. Brady, "but the near-menopausal mom who's delivered several babies is our ideal patient." The medical term for the problem is vaginal prolapse. "We all get weaker as we age," says Dr Brady, "and common conditions such as childbirth, obesity and hysterectomies can take a toll on a woman's body. LVR can often push back the sexual side effects of aging."
Dr. Brady opened the Women's Wellness Institute of Dallas in 2007, focused primarily on cosmetic vaginal surgery. With an all-female staff and a private surgery suite in north Dallas, the Institute has become a resource for women who want help improving their sex lives.
About the Womens Wellness Institute of Dallas:
The Womens Wellness institute of Dallas is a full-service Obstetric-Gynecologic medical practice located in Dallas, Texas. Wesley Anne Brady, M.D. was the first Dallas-area Ob-Gyn to be certified in Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation and remains the only female surgeon in North Texas offering the service.

"As a first time Maid of Honor it was a bit stressful realizing everything I had to plan for my friends big day! I found these beautiful postcards for the bachelorette and they are SO beautiful! I have received so many compliments how nice they are! It was so nice to just put in all the details and know that I would not have to hand write a bunch of invites! And the delivery was super fast!! I never expected them to arrive so quickly! I will be ordering the bridal shower invitations from here as well!"
"I was looking for something simple within the black and gold theme and found this. Super easy to customize and the best part was that it's a postcard so I didn't have to buy envelopes! It showed up way before the estimated arrival date, which was great. And I could include a little message on the back for the guests. Perfect!"
"I loved these bachelorette party invites! I chose a customized color to match my bridesmaid color and it turned out great!"
"I ordered these because of the design and that they are postcards. I was able to write personal messages to each of the girls we are inviting and it's great not to deal with envelopes. Wedding paper divas shipped the cards quickly and I can't wait to drop them in the mail!"
"It was very easy to design the invite just the way I wanted. The fonts that were offered were wonderful and fit my style and need. My guests loved the invites and thought it fit the personality of the Bride."

District falls to 8th from 4th in SSLC performance
'Gap between districts is getting narrower'
SSA said to have improved State's education system
MANGALORE: The district's ranking according to the pass percentage in the SSLC examination has fluctuated wildly over the past five years.
In 2005-2006, it was placed 7th, in 2006-07 it was 14th, in 2007-08 it was 10th, in 2008-09 it advanced to 4th and this year it has slipped to 8th in the State.
But even as the Department of Public Instruction is trying to find out why the district slipped three places in the ranking this year, educationist and columnist Aravinda Chokkadi says that there is undue emphasis on the entire ranking system. "The SSLC exam is not an inter-district war," he says.
Pointing out that Tumkur and Mandya have done better than Dakshina Kannada this year, he says that these districts were always considered backward. "It is not a case of Dakshina Kannada slipping but a case of other districts improving. The gap between the districts is getting narrower," he says.
Commending the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) for improving the State's education system, Mr. Chokkadi feels that with its special focus on backward districts, the programme has levelled the playing field in Karnataka.
Students in Tumkur and Mandya have now the same facilities as those in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi. "They are showing that they are as good as anybody else. So, why are we feeling so insecure about our ranking instead of feeling happy for them," he asks. Nevertheless, officials seem perplexed. District nodal officer for SSLC examination Ramachandra Gowda told The Hindu, "Our pass percentage has been fluctuating between 70 and 80 per cent for several years now. We are working hard to understand these fluctuations."
Mr. Gowda says that even this year's results are very confusing. "Last year, only 22 students from the district scored above 600 marks, but this year there are 57 such students." Moreover, the number of students getting distinction has dropped sharply. Only 1,428 students have got a distinction this year compared to 1,673 in 2007-08 and 1,994 in 2008-09.
Mr. Gowda says that at the moment, the department has only a few theories for this dip. "There were an unusually high number of private students this year. Although we have no control over them, they do affect our ranking," he says.
Deputy Director of Public Instruction C. Chame Gowda attributes the change in the pattern of examination for the poor results. "Perhaps, my department failed to spread the information about the new pattern," he concedes. He describes as "worrying" the dismal performance of government schools in the district. Only 64.8 per cent students managed to pass in government schools as against 82.5 in government-aided and 89.3 in private schools.
Contesting this, Mr. Chokkadi, who is also a teacher at Navodaya Model School in Mundaje in Belthangady taluk says, "I told my students strictly that they must not study keeping in mind the examination pattern. Our focus was on aiding learning not just passing exams." The Mundaje school, which is meant for SC/ST students, is one of the few schools to have secured 100 per cent passes this year.
According to Mr. Chokkadi, the basic education system is flawed. He advocates a shift to what he calls "a multi-dimensional education pattern" where students are judged on the basis of their talent and not on their proficiency in a pre-set syllabus. "Until we shift to a better system, we will keep worrying about meaningless marks and ego-boosting ranks," he says.

YOUR own stem cells could help deadly bacteria hide in your body - a discovery that could inspire new treatments for tuberculosis.
Over 2 billion people are infected with TB. Typically, the bacteria lie latent inside balls of immune cells, or granulomas, in the lungs. Carriers get sick when the immune system is taxed further - by HIV, for example - freeing the bacteria.
Gobardhan Das and colleagues at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology in New Delhi, India, found that in infected organs of mice with TB, but not in healthy mice, immune cells called T-cells are suppressed. Crucially, this suppression was not via any known immune-regulating cells.
The granulomas were in fact being guarded by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which normally form fat and bone (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1007967107).
Nitric oxide secreted by MSCs appears to repel T-cells. It's the first time stem cells have been caught abetting an infectious disease, says Das. If these MSCs can be manipulated to disrupt granulomas, he says, the immune response should kill the TB bugs.

Portion Control: Know the Difference between Measuring Volume & Weight
Every once in awhile my brain dysfunctions, and I get confused about measuring my food for portion control. I know that 2 cups = 16 ounces or 1 pound, and almost tried to weigh 1 pound of lettuce! lol My math was correct, but 16 ounces can be either volume or weight. Cups measure volume.

Error Decompressing... (AFTER following Cryptics instructions)
I went through and found out which .hogg files were causing me problems and deleted them and redownloaded them through the cryptic launcher. I was having a problem with 2 particular system. the Donia and the Reytan systems in the Sirius Sector block. After following Cryptics instructions I was actually able to enter the systems and finish my missions. However late last night I ran into another one of the errors when trying to load into the Laurentine system for the Slow the expeditiary force fleet action. I went through and looked at my errors logs and it was a couple of the same files I had just spent the majority of my afternoon play time downloading new .hogg files. Im not complaining just making sure the dev's are being kept up to date on issues.
Basically either I got a bad download some how... I was on a wired connection and no interupts during the download so i think that is unlikely.
Or there is something within whatever compression tool Cryptic is using that is not playing nice with Win7 64bit. I know alot of you have win7 64 and it runs fine but at this point i cant figure out whats causing it.
After following the instructions from Cryptic I'm crashing more often now than I was before. my force verify files seems to be clean from what I can tell. I'm getting alot fo the 6719096 i think thats the one im getting. At this point I dont know what to do. Any help from you guys Cryptic would be greatly appreciated

Navigating the grid
Using the number grid shown (A) it is possible to generate nine-digit numbers in the following way: Start on any square and then move horizontally, vertically or diagonally to an adjacent square that hasn't already been visited. Repeat until all nine squares have been visited. For example, the path shown in diagram B generates the number 235968741.
I have listed all the numbers that can be generated in this way, and that end in a certain digit. Some of these are divisible by four (and only four) of the numbers 1 to 9. The rest are divisible by five (and only five) of the numbers 1 to 9.
How many numbers are there in my list?

Euro Sticks Reviews
A very good cigar overall. It is a surprisingly good cigar and a tremendous value buy.
The gerneeral idea is good but these are Nasty, Nasty, Nasty. This is not a good cigar. It smells bad out of the box and doesn t get any better after lighting up. I am not one for writing reviews but this one needs a warning label XXXSTAY AWAYXXX.
A very good cigar overall. It is a surprisingly good cigar and a tremendous value buy.
This cigar simply is too slender to have a personality to speak of: Its flavor is nondescript, and it smokes too fast. It s just a novelty. There are other, much better, economy cigars: Villiger Export Sumatra or Panter Dominican Short Corona.
I sort of bought these on a whim. I like cigarillos but had never heard of panatelas, and when I saw it was basically a longer cigarillo I was sold on the idea. I work as a police officer and I like to have a cigar when I m working nights, but I often don t have enough time in one stretch to make it worth it, hence why I like cigarillos. When I received these I tried one right away, not expecting much special. I was pleasantly surprised. Most small cigars you find are papery and harsh, but these were nice and mild and seem of high quality. The burn is nice and slow compared to other similar types, and the taste stays consistent throughout the smoke. I get about a ten to fifteen minute smoke out of one of these. I will definitely buy these again and I m looking forward to trying the maduros next time!
These are a great little smoke. This is the 5th time I have ordered them and plan on the next order being the same. Smooth flavor and easy draw.
With all due respect to the manufacturer, these Euro-Sticks have poor flavor and does not have a very good draw. I will not buy them again.
great smoke enjoyed it
I picked these as a free gift from a large order, I tried one of these as soon as I got my package. Long and slim, they seem to burn okay. BUT! The first thing I tasted was Paper not a good thing - they left a dry feeling in my mouth with an after taste that I find hard to describe. I will save them and give them to people who like to stop by and mooch a cigar or 2 from me,I am sure they will quit asking after I give them these. So exactly what are you other guys smoking anyways?
there not bad little smoke. only thing is they don t last long there so short. but there smooth smoke an taste real nice,,
I got these free as a promo. Skinny things. Burn well, sweetness on the lips and good tobacco taste. If they were made as a Lonsdale, I would buy them. Just too small for me. Nice smoke.

Maybe I'm easily impressed with myself these days, but I thought I had a stroke of genius this weekend and I wanted to share.
I have to mix Isaacs formula up to 24 cal still, and then most nights mix in bulk to prep bottles for the night and daycare. I was using an 8 oz medela bottle to do it, and it would take forever. Then I was using this awkward tupperware bottle to do it, and then I had a thought.
My husband and I pre baby were doing protein shakes after the gym, and would use these botttles called Blender bottles. THey have a little metal wisk ball in them to bust up the clumps in the protein shake. Hmmm, lighting strike!
I used this to mix formula Friday and haven't turned back. The wisk works awesome to bust up the good start clumps. I bought them at my local grocery store, but wanted to share, because it was such a timesaver.
