Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands Walkthrough
The Forgotten Sands has a lot of relatively seamless in-game tutorials, so an introductory portion of this walkthrough is a bit redundant. It teaches you just about anything you need to know.
If you change the difficulty during the game from Normal to Easy, you earn a bronze trophy/five-point Achievement, Our Little Secret. On Easy mode, all traps and enemies do substantially less damage, and the timing is a bit more forgiving on some of the obstacles throughout the game. It takes a lot of work to die in combat on Easy mode, but the platforming is just about the same.The Ramparts walkthrough The Fortress walkthrough The Treasure Vaults walkthrough The Stables walkthrough The Works walkthrough The Fortress Courtyard walkthrough The Fortress Gates walkthrough The Prison walkthrough The Sewer walkthrough The Baths walkthrough The Royal Chambers walkthrough The Observatory walkthrough The Throne Room walkthrough The Terrace walkthrough The Rooftop Gardens walkthrough The Aqueducts walkthrough King Solomon's Tomb walkthrough Ruins of Rekem walkthrough Throne Room of Rekem walkthrough The Sacred Fountain walkthrough Rekem Reservoir walkthrough Solomon's Hall walkthrough King's Tower walkthrough The Palace walkthrough The Final Climb walkthrough

One of the bleakest and smallest homes on a block of big, beautiful, mansion-like properties started out as a Sears kit home 100 years ago.
It took a lot of caring and cash to bring the 1910 Craftsman back to life, and few other owners might have had the wherewithal to restore the Bluff Park home like Larry Guesno.
Guesno is a remodeling expert who was born and raised in Long Beach and spent most of his life here. He has bought and fixed up more than 20 multifamily properties over the years, and the home at 2424 E. Second St. was his pet project and a place where he expected to spend the rest of his years with his wife, Carol.
As is often the case, life intervened and the couple must move to another part of Southern California to take care of his wife's ailing mother, so Guesno is putting his baby on the market.
The home went up for sale Dec.15 for nearly $1.1 million. The three-bedroom, 2½-bathroom home is 1,500 square feet, with an additional 300 square feet in a finished attic.
An oak interior theme that's carried throughout the home, a stylish saltwater lap pool with a pebble bottom, a sink fitted into an antique writing desk and doors that blend in with the walls are among the vintage home's highlights.
It's a major contrast from the shape it was in when the Guesnos purchased the home in the fall of 2010 for $490,000 – it had a neglected back lot, cheap metal windows and an unimaginative interior with wood that was painted over. It could be considered an injustice to a Craftsman home.
"There was just nothing here," Guesno said, referring to the backyard and the front of the home. "There was no front porch. There were these steps coming up to the house and no porch at all."
He hired contractors he knew to work on the home after their regular job each day. They started working on a total remodel, with step one being to jack raise the home and put in a new foundation.
Also added were stress improvements to better fortify the home from earthquakes, and those enhancements could enable a second floor if a new owner wanted to build one.
The house is fully insulated with Styrofoam – that was needed instead of traditional insulation because of the construction of the building, and that type of insulation also serves to lower outside noise. The home also has new wiring and plumbing.
"It's like a new house with an old shell," Guesno said. "I wanted my house to have the best possible construction."
He estimates he spent between $400,000 and $500,000 on the remodel, which took 1½ years. That's quite an outlay considering Sears kit homes that sold during the early 1900s retailed for between $450 and $2,000.
The Guesnos could have chosen any home, but they desired a small place that required little housekeeping, and they wanted to be in the coveted Bluff Park community that boasts some of the city's most gawked-at homes – the area is a regular stop on Long Beach historic home tours.
"We were real excited about the vintage neighborhood," Guesno said. "It gives you the feel that you are in a quiet time, a slower pace."

Ole Miss cuts quick deal to secure Nutt
'This time we have to get it right,' says Rebels' Boone
OXFORD, Miss. -- Ole Miss athletics director Pete Boone spent much of Monday evening negotiating by telephone with Jimmy Sexton, Houston Nutt's Memphis-based agent.
After so much talk about base pay and options and performance-based incentives, they came to an agreement at about 10 p.m. The deal was done, and Boone knew he needed to give chancellor Robert Khayat the news. Except for one small problem.
"I couldn't find his phone number," said Boone, who drove to Khayat's home to tell him in person: Nutt was Ole Miss' new football coach.
Nutt, less than six hours after resigning at Arkansas, agreed to a four-year deal worth more than $7.4 million to coach the Rebels, whose disgruntled fan base hopes he can resuscitate the program's flagging fortunes. Boone and Khayat fired Ed Orgeron on Saturday after three disappointing seasons, and Boone wasted little time going after Nutt.
"I think it's so important to have a person like Houston Nutt, a proven success," said Boone, who did not interview other candidates. "This time we have to get it right."
Nutt, 50, who coached Arkansas to a 75-48 record and two Southeastern Conference title games in 10 seasons, will be introduced at a noon news conference today at the Ford Center. His contract calls for him to be paid $1.7 million to start with a $100,000 raise each season, Boone said. Nutt also has options for three additional years, plus incentives.
"It's human nature not to like change," said junior fullback Jason Cook, "but I think in this case, change is going to be a good thing."
Boone and Khayat had faced mounting criticism for hiring Orgeron, who arrived at Ole Miss as a first-time head coach. He went 10-25 in three seasons, and the Rebels punctuated their first winless SEC campaign since 1982 by blowing a fourth-quarter lead against Mississippi State on Friday.
After he learned that Nutt planned to resign from Arkansas, Boone contacted him on Sunday to discuss the Ole Miss opening. Boone said Nutt was reluctant to speak in depth until his resignation was official. But as soon as their negotiations began and Boone realized there was mutual interest, he said he felt grateful.
"This all happened overnight with me," Boone said. "So it was just one of those things: 'What's wrong with this picture? It can't be that good.' But, in fact, I think it is."
Nutt, who could not be reached for comment, will arrive in Oxford early this morning. He is expected to meet with the team before his news conference, which is open to the public.
According to several published reports, Arkansas chancellor John White offered to bump Nutt's salary from $1.2 million to $2.4 million in an attempt to keep him. When he announced his resignation on Monday, Nutt said he had declined the offer, citing unrest among the team's fans.
Nutt seemed to be acknowledging that he had become a divisive figure in Arkansas, where many of his problems appeared to stem from his recruitment of quarterback Mitch Mustain, a top-tier player from nearby Springdale, Ark., whose relationship with Nutt was worthy of daytime television.
The well-chronicled saga, which included Mustain's mother, nasty e-mails, countless Freedom of Information Act requests (one by Mustain's attorney), suspicious text messages and rumored lawsuits, generated factions of fans -- some who supported Nutt, some who clearly did not. Even if there was dissension at Arkansas, Cook said, he has long respected Nutt.
"You do get the sense that he's someone who really cares for his guys," Cook said. "That's something that's important as a head coach. But he's also doing things with that team where the guys look like they're enjoying themselves."
Boone said he spoke with Arkansas athletics director Frank Broyles about Nutt's recent troubles, and Khayat conferred with White. Those conversations only solidified their feelings about Nutt's character, Boone said.
"There are going to be detractors anytime you're somewhere 10 years," he said. "You're going to do things over that period of time that there's going to be some momentum built up among people who don't agree with what you're doing. You're going to have that. It's not an uncommon thing."
When he launched his search over the weekend, Boone intended to offer the new coach a contract laden with performance-based incentives. A competitive coach, Boone said, should relish the opportunity to make more money by winning more games. He tried out that approach during the early stages of his negotiations with Sexton, who urged him to reconsider. Boone soon came around. He said he was influenced by a survey he received: SEC coaches, on average, earn $2 million per year.
"The price of poker," Boone said, "has gone up."
Ole Miss has made some significant investments in the football program over the past four days. Orgeron's buyout calls for him to be paid $675,000 per year through 2009, minus whatever he makes in a new job.
In addition, Boone said Nutt has complete control over his coaching staff. Nutt could bring as many as seven members of his Arkansas staff with him, though he will meet with at least four members of the Ole Miss staff this morning: wide receivers coach Hugh Freeze, defensive coordinator John Thompson (who spent 2000-01 as Nutt's defensive coordinator), tight ends coach Tony Hughes and offensive line coach Art Kehoe. Those four, Boone said, have expressed "the most desire" to stay at Ole Miss.
Secondary coach Chris Rippon, defensive line coach Ryan Nielsen and offensive coordinator Dan Werner also will have the opportunity to speak with Nutt, said Boone, adding that he had made recommendations to Nutt, identifying the strengths of each coach.
"But I've also told him that it's his call," Boone said.
Boone spent about two hours in Fayetteville on Tuesday afternoon, meeting with Nutt and his wife, Diana.
"I looked at his horses," Boone said, "and talked a little football."
With speculation swirling around Boone and Khayat, both of whom have faced questions about their futures at Ole Miss, there is no question that they want their legacies to be linked to the restoration of the football program, which has fallen on the hardest times.
Boone said he arrived at Nutt's home in a bright red pickup truck. Now, Nutt is in the driver's seat.

WILKES-BARRE — A shackled Lamar Curry-Davis sat quietly in district court Tuesday morning while his attorney, Joseph F. Saporito Jr., was requesting a bail modification on charges he robbed another man on Park Avenue.
In the middle of Saporito's argument, authorities walked up from behind and blindsided Curry-Davis, 19, with a criminal homicide charge in the fatal shooting of Eduardo Madera, 46, inside 320 E. Northampton St., Wilkes-Barre, on Nov. 6.
Madera was found dead in the kitchen of the house by a woman. An autopsy showed he died from multiple gunshot wounds, according to the Luzerne County Coroner's Office.
District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis said the motive appears Curry-Davis entered the house looking for heroin and encountered Madera and shot him multiple times.
Curry-Davis, known as "Cannon," of Cleveland, Ohio, was arraigned by District Judge Martin Kane in Wilkes-Barre on the homicide charge as well as burglary and a weapons violation. He was remanded to the county correctional facility without bail on the homicide and $100,000 on the unrelated robbery case.
Investigators allegedly received information about the deadly shooting from Nasim Hickson, 19, of Wilkes-Barre, on Dec. 7.
According to criminal complaints:
Hickson was arrested by city police Dec. 7. after he allegedly fired a modified .22 caliber rifle at officers investigating a disturbance in the area of Park Avenue and South Hancock and Lehigh streets. Hickson allegedly told investigators that Curry-Davis was responsible for Madera's shooting.
Investigators questioned Curry-Davis on Monday. He allegedly admitted to entering the East Northampton Street house intending to steal a large quantity of heroin to sell it on the streets.
Curry-Davis said he was confronted by Madera, who he believed was holding a gun. Curry-Davis fired several rounds "just to spook him" as Madera walked toward him, according to the complaint.
Madera fell to the floor and Curry-Davis said he stood over the body thinking Madera was faking his death, the complaint says.
During Tuesday's preliminary hearing on the robbery charge before District Judge Rick Cronauer, Alexander Sperazza testified he picked up a pizza at Ricci's Pizza on Park Avenue at about 11 p.m. Nov. 23. As he entered the restaurant, he noticed Curry-Davis by the entrance door.
Sperazza said that after paying for the pizza, he turned and noticed Curry-Davis leave the business. Sperazza left the business with $10 in his hand that he later put in his pocket.
Sperazza said Curry-Davis saw him with the $10 and approached him and said, "Give me that (expletive) money." Sperazza said Curry-Davis lunged at him and the two struggled in the roadway.
A wrestling coach, Sperazza got Curry-Davis in a naked choke hold as Curry-Davis kept yelling, "I'm (expletive) going to kill you, I'm going to gut you." Sperazza said Curry-Davis managed to escape and then ran down Park Avenue.
Police Officer Yuannis Polemitis said Curry-Davis was arrested on East Northampton Street.
Cronauer sent the robbery charge against Curry-Davis to county court. Hickson's case was continued to Jan. 14.
A preliminary hearing on the homicide charge is scheduled on Dec. 27.

Clemson star Watkins arrested on drug charges
Watkins was a Clemson star who said he shied away from the spotlight. He said in numerous interviews last season that his routine consisted of school, football, studying and little else.
"I stay in," Watkins, the 6-foot-1, 200-pound wideout from Fort Myers, Fla., said last September. "I go to class, football, I stay in the house most of the time."
Watkins is considered the centerpiece of Clemson's high-flying offense, which set school records with more than 440 yards a game, 58 touchdowns and 470 points.
"I will learn from this," Watkins said.
Watkins is the second receiver to get arrested this offseason. Wideout Joe Craig was dismissed from the program in February after his arrest for criminal domestic violence.

CC battles its way past Austin for first victory
It wasn't pretty - more like pretty ugly.
But the Rayz weren't looking for style points, just those in the standings.
Corpus Christi rallied for its first victory of the young Central Hockey League season on Saturday night, downing the Austin Ice Bats 3-2 in overtime at the American Bank Center.
Justin Quenneville scored the winning goal, tipping a Steve Pelletier shot past Austin goalie Miguel Beaudry at the 1:03 mark of extra time. The goal was Quenneville's second of the night and third in the past two games.
"That first win is always the hardest," said Quenneville, who also scored the tying goal early in the third period. "They never come pretty, but we got the win and we're happy."
Coach Ken McRae called it a weight off the shoulders of his 1-2 team, which had lost to Laredo and Rio Grande Valley in its first two games.
If we would've let this one slip away I wouldn't want to have these guys at the rink (today), let's put it that way."
The Rayz put together a strong defensive effort, holding Austin to 17 shots on goal after the Bats piled up 45 in a loss to Lubbock on Friday.
"If there's one thing that's a big, big positive with this hockey club, it's those 17 shots against," McRae said. "(We had) 27 (on Friday) and 25 (in the opener). If we can start burying our chances and keep those (shots against) numbers down, that's got to be a positive."
The Rayz trailed 2-1 entering the third period, but managed to tie the score with a power-play goal. After Austin killed off a two-man advantage that lasted one minute and 12 seconds, the Rayz finally converted on a five-on-four situation.
From the left of the crease, Quenneville got a stick on Geno Parrish's shot from the left circle, deflecting the puck past Beaudry and inside the left post at the 4:13 mark.
"That was huge - that's what we needed," Quenneville said. "Just throw it on net. (The last two) goals that we got, we just threw it on net and we've got to do it more often."
The Rayz then had opportunities to take the lead when Austin was hit with a slew of penalties. However, the Ice Bats killed off a five-on-three that lasted a full two minutes and then another power play right after that. The Rayz finished 1 for 9 on the power play and are 2 for 27 with the man advantage this season.
"I thought our power play created some chances, but we've got to be more efficient than that," McRae said.
Each team had a chance to win in the final minutes of regulation. Vogel stopped Jordan Bianchin, who was perched all alone at the top of the crease. Then in the final two minutes of the third, Beaudry rebuffed Jason Baird's blast from the slot and then denied Quenneville on a chance from the right circle with 19.5 seconds to go.

First anonymous email sent to Gen. Allen in May
Wednesday - 11/14/2012, 7:26pm EST
By PETE YOST
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal law enforcement official says that the ex-CIA director's biographer and lover sent emails to other senior military officials besides the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan.
The official characterizes the emails as an attempt to undermine the reputation of a Tampa socialite who was friendly with David Petraeus and Gen. John Allen.
The official, who wasn't authorized to discuss the case publicly, spoke on the condition of anonymity.
The emails were traced to Paula Broadwell, the former CIA director's mistress.

Diabetes Health Center
Diabetes Demands a Triad of Treatments
In this article
Oral Drugs continued...
Metformin is also contraindicated in patients with liver dysfunction. "It should be used only in healthy patients, and it's not for the elderly," Misbin says.
Precose is less effective but usually safer to use than Metformin, he points out. Precose's one major side effect is flatulence. Precose stops, or delays, absorption of carbohydrates and in doing so delivers glucose and other carbohydrates, which cause gas, Santiago explains. "Flatulence can occur when the drug is used at high doses, but this can be reduced by beginning the drug at a low dose and going up... a 'start-low, go-slow' approach."
Product labeling recommends that doctors start patients on lower doses to combat the flatulence problem.
"Although the lowest effective dose is 25 milligrams three times a day with meals, some physicians are starting patients on just 25 mg daily to minimize this side effect," Misbin says.
The newest drug, Rezulin, was well-tolerated in clinical studies. The most commonly reported side effects were infection, pain and headache, but these occurred at rates comparable to those in the placebo-treated patients. The drug should be prescribed with caution in patients with advanced heart failure or liver disease.
Some diabetes experts report that when it comes to prescribing initial therapy for Type II diabetics, some doctors tend to follow a "treatment of laziness" -- for example, prescribing SFUs if they perceive difficulties in the patient's ability to change dietary habits or lifestyle.
"Sometimes, patients with diabetes are treated with drugs when it's not really necessary," Misbin says. "Oral pills should be used in Type II diabetes only when diet and exercise are not effective. It's very common for overweight patients who lose weight to lower their own blood sugar levels and come off the medicines. The problem is that it's very difficult to get patients to lose weight."
So, the bottom line in diabetes control still hinges on patients' ability to manage the disease themselves. "I don't know of a chronic disease in which the person who suffers from it is so responsible for its management," says ADA president Cryer. "The patient has to become an expert regarding their own diabetes."
Although drug treatment makes a difference to many diabetics and their quality of life, Cryer adds that current diabetes treatments are still "not ideal." He hopes that continuing research will someday find the answer to the diabetes dilemma.

I had the privilege of being 'tested' by Pandit Ravi Shankar and Ustad Alla Rakha as a two-year-old in 1969 during the December music festival in Chennai. Even though my memories of this incident are non-existent, Panditji later vividly recalled that day in a typically colourful fashion.
"Ustad Alla Rakha and I were astounded when this child could recognise so many ragas. Alla Rakha then playfully tried to confuse him on a couple of talas and jatis but he was almost rudely rebuffed by Ravi. When it was time for Ravi and his father Narasimhan to leave, I personally escorted them to the elevator. As soon as the elevator came up, the child exclaimed – 'Appa, now the elevator will go in the avarohana (descending) sequence!' I can never forget that".
I grew up listening to both Carnatic and Hindustani virtuosos and Ravi Shankar's style never failed to inspire me, even as a child. However, it was his out-of-the-box thinking which set him apart in my mind. It was evident that his incredible contributions were no accident. They were natural products of his clarity of vision, focus, hard work, suave expression, broad-mindedness and inclusive outlook. He was among the first artistes to make several Carnatic ragas like Keeravani, Vachaspati, Simhendramadhyamam and Charukeshi household names in the North. He never played Carnatic compositions in these but created his own bandish and infused them with a typical Hindustani flavour in his improvisation. His renditions have made them automatic choices for numerous Hindustani artistes and also paved the way for a greater awareness about Carnatic music everywhere.
I was also deeply impressed by Panditji's familiarity with the Carnatic idiom as a whole and his incisive analysis of the various styles that included Ariyakkudi Ramanuja Iyengar, Maharajapuram Vishwanatha Iyer, Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer, GNB, Madurai Mani Iyer and others. He unhesitatingly declared, "I was sold on Carnatic thanks to Veena Dhanammal".
He wanted me to perform exclusively for him (and select invitees) at his beautiful home in San Diego in Spring 2010 and it so happened that I played Varali and Vagadheeshwari in succession. He immediately demanded that I play a javali in a "nice madhura raga" and fondly recalled the exquisite renditions of Brinda and Mukta.
After the concert, he enquired after my own efforts in world music and astounded me when he said, "A few weeks ago, I saw a YouTube clip of your Melharmony." It was unbelievable that he was so passionately up-to-date about the avenues various Indian artistes were pursuing on the world music front. I meekly mumbled something to the effect that it was really his pioneering collaborations with world artistes and symphonies that served as my inspiration.
The following day, Panditji was the guest of honour at my jugalbandi concert with Dr Balamuralikrishna and it was heart-warming to observe the interaction between these two legends.
Sadly this turned out to be my last live interaction with him. His loss is an irreparable one in the world of music because he was one of those rare artistes who did not merely play to live but lived to play.

Excellent quality
By Yahoo YYC
from YYC - Calgary
The quality was excellent, the best I've seen, but very expensive. However, it was too small. I expected it to be measured across the diameter of the cooking surface rather than the top of the frypan. I did not order the larger one because it was more $$ than I wanted to pay.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Does anyone here use the Nauticam 7" Dome with the M.Zuiko 12-40 Pro?? Its seems that it would be a easier (no extensions to attach) and cheaper solution than the Zen domes. Also, wouldn't it work with the upcoming 7-14mm Pro?
Naticam Port chart: http://www.nauticam..../catalog_18.pdf
The 12-40 mm PRO fits in either the "36129" 7 inch dome or the "18809" 180 mm glass dome.
The 7-14 mm PRO is too wide for the N85 port system (as illustrated in my first post), thus you will need the N85 to N120 port converter as previously depicted in this thread. The lens neds to be installed from the port side after the camera is installed, then you need to install the dome port.

Streetscape-Maple Leaf gold
We're glad to finally see some real movement with the Downtown Streetscape project. It's been a frustration for many.
There are still many unknowns, but now -- finally -- with a contractor identified that has submitted a workable bid on the $1.8 million project, we can at least begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel. That's after years of talk and hope.
We're also pleased that the stipulation of working around the Maple Leaf Festival was added to the mix -- and accepted, evidently. That's been the biggest question all along. What would the downtown project do to Maple Leaf?
Who knows, maybe the weather will be wonderful, the contractor extra good and the project will be completed before October.
We can hope, especially for the 50th Annual MLF set for this year. It looks like it will be golden.

That has been my complaint about HHN. When I went there I felt that their were more people intoxicated than not. In my mind this is the barier that seperates Knott's Haunt from HHN. Knott's for the most part you can take the faimaly to the haunt (I have been going since I was 8yrs old, yea that was a long time ago) and not have to worry about some durnk vomiting in a bush. My personal guess is that USF has to use the alchol to keep the over sold "Hearded" crowds content in the never ending, unthemed, switchback queues for the mazes.Originally Posted by figment1986
I know that I sound Bias aginst HHN, I'm not infact my better half has for the past few years been a USF HHN monster.
Knott's has been serving small amounts of alchol over at the "Budwiser Glow Zone" for the past 3~4 years. However the alchol is very limited and confined to the restraunt and it's patio behind Jaguar. No alchol or drunkenness beyond that point during the haunt.Originally Posted by migo

You can take the family to Knott's Haunt? As I recall, they tout over and over that no one under the age of 13 is recommended to attend. Mind you, it's not an enforced rule, just a strong suggestion. As much as I enjoy the Haunt, I personally would not bring young children. Some kids are more resilient about such things, but I think that should be more the exception than the rule.Knott's for the most part you can take the faimaly to the haunt (I have been going since I was 8yrs old, yea that was a long time ago) and not have to worry about some durnk vomiting in a bush.
Does anyone even bother with signatures anymore?
I worked two Halloween Horror Nights at USF and they were definitely terrifying! An absolute nightmare compared to working the park with regular day guests.

only 1 maze?? or only 1 confirmed amze.. cause don't they have a design for a maze in the parking structure floor beneth T-2? (and one other palce..) this is a greand experiment for GE.. cause who knows if they might be the kicker that makes them want to dump the park divisions off.. (and make a joint deal for hollywood..)
"only 1 maze?? or only 1 confirmed amze.. "
Figment, where do you see that they officially posted only one maze? The official USH site it's the "ONE Halloween event that L.A. is dying for". If that's the line your referring to, I think they mean the ENTIRE Horror Night experience is the ONE event...
It's time to start writing NBC Universal... I don't know about L.A. as a whole, but I know *I* have been waiting over TEN YEARS for HHN to come back!!! I think it's WAY better than Knott's... (start the flames a-coming!)
okay. so there are going to be 2 mazes, but these mazes will be on the studio tour. so...you will be traveling in the dark and all that fun stuff.
second - jurassic park in the dark as well as revenge of the mummy with absolutely no lights on.
third - mutalaytor (sp?) the band is playing at the event. this is a HUGE deal.
ok. that's all i can say for now....
kingdom hearts <3er
^ Will Back to the Future play with no lights on too?
So will we get a Bill & Ted type of show?? I love seeing the Halloween spoof shows!!
Makes wonder if the construction in Wild Wild Wild West Stunt show has anything to do with HHN??
When are tickets avaliable?

Mammoth Mystery: The Beasts' Final Years
Woolly mammoths' last stand before extinction in Siberia wasn't made by natives – rather, the beasts had American roots, researchers have discovered.
Woolly mammoths once roamed the Earth for more than a half-million years, ranging from Europe to Asia to North America. These Ice Age giants vanished from mainland Siberia by 9,000 years ago, although mammoths survived on Wrangel Island in the Arctic Ocean until roughly 3,700 years ago.
"Scientists have always thought that because mammoths roamed such a huge territory – from Western Europe to Central North America – that North American woolly mammoths were a sideshow of no particular significance to the evolution of the species," said researcher Hendrik Poinar, an evolutionary geneticist at McMaster University in Hamilton, Canada.
Real history
To uncover the real history of woolly mammoths, Poinar and his colleagues spent the last three years extracting ancient DNA from 160 mammoth samples over much of their former range across Europe, Asia and North America, from which they assembled a family tree.
Many scientists had thought woolly mammoths were essentially one big family connected across the roughly 1,000-mile-long Bering Land Bridge that once joined Alaska to eastern Siberia.
Instead, the Bering Land Bridge might have been a significant barrier rather than an open corridor between the east and the west, as mixing between mammoths of the Old World and New World seems rare, the new research shows. The bridge might have been tundra-like and not good at supporting these large creatures, the researchers explained. These divided groups of woolly mammoths then diverged genetically to become distinct populations.
Mysteriously, the Siberian mammoths then abruptly dwindled roughly 40,000 years ago, with American migrants replacing them rapidly, the study found.
"Something really happened to those Siberian guys," Poinar said. "They literally fell off the face of the Earth and were supplanted by North American mammoths."
These findings had eluded scientists in the past because such a genetic switch is "difficult if not impossible to tell by looking at teeth, tusks and bones," Poinar explained.
While such population replacements are not uncommon on a small scale, "ones occurring on a continental scale certainly are," said researcher Ross MacPhee, curator of mammalogy at the American Museum of Natural History in New York.
Mystery remains
As to what led to this continental-level decline, "there is a very large unknown looming here," MacPhee said. He does not think competition between the different mammoth populations is a likely culprit. Human over-hunting also does not make sense. "You have humans in both Asia and North America at that time, but no drop-out in North America at that time," he added. "Disease of course immediately comes to mind, but we have nothing to go on for that yet."
Evolutionary geneticist Regis Debruyne at McMaster University noted that "for more than a century, any discussion on the woolly mammoth has primarily focused on the well-studied Eurasian mammoths. Little attention was dedicated to the North American samples, and it was generally assumed their contribution to the evolutionary history of the species was negligible. This study certainly proves otherwise."
MacPhee said: "Right now it seems that mammoths had a very complicated demise. Enormous crashes seem to be part of their story – this enormous crash in Siberia might have been a prequel for their final loss."
Analysis of the DNA reveals the Siberian mammoths that the North Americans replaced might not actually have been woolly mammoths, Mammuthus primigenius, but another, more archaic species. On the other hand, the original Siberian mammoths might have been woollies that inherited DNA from other species from ancient hybrid ancestors, Poinar said. Further genetic analysis could reveal which possibility is true, "and maybe help identify certain genes that gave an evolutionary advantage somehow that allowed one of the mammoth populations to survive and the other die off," he added.
Debruyne, Poinar, MacPhee and their colleagues detailed their findings online Sept. 4 in the journal Current Biology.
Funding for this study was provided in part by Canada's Natural Science and Engineering Research Council, the International Human Frontiers Science Program Organization, Canada's Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, the Canadian Research Chairs program and the Discovery Channel.

Love Hurts is the 20th studio album by American singer-actress Cher, released on June 11, 1991 by Geffen Records. The RIAA certified it Gold on August 27, 1991. It is the final studio album with the record label Geffen. The lead single from the album was, "Love and Understanding" and the follow-up singles were "Save Up All Your Tears", "Love Hurts", "Could've Been You" and "When Lovers Become Strangers". It debuted at #48 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart with the sales of 19,000. Billboard stated in November 2011 that Love Hurts has sold 600,000 copies in the US.[1]
Album information[edit]
Love Hurts was released in 1991 and was the third and final studio album released by Cher for Geffen Records. The record featured production by Bob Rock and saw her continue to collaborate with John Kalodner, Diane Warren and Desmond Child. The album was recorded in late 1990/early 1991, during the first year of Cher's relationship to Bon Jovi's guitarist Richie Sambora. She dedicated the album to him and "every man that ever made me shed a tear".
The album contained four covers: "Save Up All Your Tears" recorded in the late 1980s by Bonnie Tyler and Robin Beck, the Kiss song "A World Without Heroes" recorded in 1980, "Fires Of Eden" recorded by Judy Collins in 1990, and "Love Hurts" a remake of the 1975 version which Cher had previously recorded for her album Stars. This time the song was more pop/rock rather than a ballad. The originally version was released by Everly Brothers in 1960. The European version also contains the worldwide hit "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" originally recorded by Merry Clayton in 1963.
Early releases of the album in the UK had the same cover as the American release, but later European releases had a different cover, showing Cher laying on a white background wearing a red wig. The European release also included the world wide hit, "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" which reached #1 in over 10 countries. In the United States, "The Shoop Shoop Song" was available only through the original soundtrack, Mermaids for the film of the same name.
While the album did extremely well in the UK, its singles were only minor hits. "Love and Understanding" was the only big hit in the charts, but the album also produced many fans favorites including "Could've Been You" and big Cher favorites, "Save Up All Your Tears", "Love Hurts", and "Fires of Eden". Also "Love Hurts and "Could've Been You" was released only in Europe, while "When Lovers Become Strangers" was released only in North America.
The David Cassidy co-written song, "I'll Never Stop Loving You", was released a year later on Cassidy's album, Didn't You Used to be?. One year before, it was already recorded by Heart and released on a Japanese special edition bonus CD for their album Brigade.
To promote the album, Cher did several performances worldwide. In North America she promoted the album on Late Night with David Letterman. She also made a special appearance on the ABC program In Concert on June 21, 1991[2] where she performed "Love Hurts", "Love and Understanding", "Save Up All Your Tears" and "A World Without Heroes". This particular performance was highly criticized because Cher lip-synced all songs from the album, veering from the ABC show's premise to showcase "honest" live rock.[3][4] Later, during an interview, Cher defended her lip-syncing [5] and In Concert offered her a chance to reappear (with her band plugged in and playing) later in 1991, but the performance never happened.[3]
Cher also promoted the album in some European countries. In the UK she performed "Love and Understanding", "Save Up All Your Tears" and "Could've Been You" on Top of The Pops, on Wogan performed "Love and Understanding" and "Save Up All Your Tears", and on Aspel and Company performed "Could've Been You". Cher also performed "Save Up All Your Tears" in Australia during the Dame Edna Show and with Dame Edna performed "I Got You Babe".
The album received further promotion from her third headlining Love Hurts Tour, which started on April 15, 1992 in Berlin, Germany. The tour was set to start on March 21, 1992 in Copenhagen, but due to illness the European concerts were rescheduled, except for the UK dates. Later dates on the North American leg of the tour were also rescheduled twice.[6][7][8] Cher performed "Love and Understanding", "Save Up All Your Tears", "Love Hurts" and "Fires Of Eden" on her tour.
"Love and Understanding" was released as the album's lead single on May 21, 1991. The song received mixed reviews. One critic said that the song, together with others two are tame and over-careful,[9] while another said that "Love and Understanding" is a strong track.[10] The song has reached the top 10 in countries such as the Austria,[11] Canada, UK and the top 20 in United States and Germany.[12]
"Save Up All Your Tears" was released as the second single from the album and has reached top 40 on various charts worldwide, including U.S., Canada and UK.
Critical reception[edit]
|Professional ratings
|Review scores
|Entertainment Weekly
Reviews of the record were mixed. On one hand, some critics proclaimed that "Love Hurts" was the most mature material Cher has tackled in years. Also, critics said the "Love Hurts" was a step up from Heart Of Stone, and Cher.[16]
Billboard for example, said that "With a few exceptions, overall musical direction is more straight-forward rock'n'roll this time, which is the perfect environment for her unique vocal style."[14] allmusic also said that "The result, however, is particularly formulaic, with Cher's vocals sounding largely uninspired and the production and backing musicians content to be obvious.".[13]
But on another hand some critics slammed the album. One critic went as far as to claim that "The only song worth listening to is A World Without Heroes, on a otherwise uninspired album".[16]
Chart performance[edit]
Unlike Heart of Stone and Cher, Love Hurts received less attention in North America yet it was still certificated Gold in the U.S. and Platinum in Canada, for reaching the sales of 500,000 and 100,000 copies in those territories, respectively. In European countries, as well as in Australia and New Zealand, the album was very successful, and peak at number one in four countries: Austria, Ireland, Norway and UK. In the UK the album debuted at number one and remained there for six consecutive weeks. After ending its reign at the top, the album remained in the top three for five more weeks becoming the best selling female album of the year.[17] It was also certified multi-platinum and eventually selling 3 million copies.[16]

I only attended UHa for my freshman year. I took a lot of unnecessary intro courses, such as Intro to Computers. I was a Multimedia Web Design and Development major. If I couldn't figure out how to use the Microsoft Office Suite, I should have chosen a major that was not in technology. The class was a complete joke. The Rhetoric and Writing classes had busy work curriculum. I did not learn a single thing in either of them and I was taking them on the honors level. I did most of my learning at my...

This is a great school and i enjoyed the orientation. I can't wait to attend. It was a great experience.Read More
This university was a great choice for me and was one of my top choices so I was thrilled when I got accepted. They have a beautiful and comfortable environment and establishment that I will be glad to be staying in for the next four years. I would highly recommend students to this school.Read More
The University of Hartford has the most a student could ever need. From academic help to planning activities that would get everyone involved. There's so much to do in so little time.Read More
A decent school for art and dance majors. For anyone else you can get a better education at half the cost. The buildings are very run down and old.Read More
It is a nice campus with a great staff and student body. But it was not the right fit for me. The school was to small.Read More
I'm a freshman here and I can't wait to transfer next year. The academics at this school are generally a waste of time and not at all challenging and the only extracurricular that's popular is substance abuse. Add to that the dumpy dorms and the mediocre food and you've got a school that isn't worth the tuition or the time.Read More
University of Hartford is a joke of a college. Academically any individual with sub human intelligence can pass a coarse. There's a remedial college within the university. Like what is that? Most importantly there are a huge group of the weirdest most socially awkward people I've ever seen in my life. There's nothing to do on weekends unless your in our joke which is called Greek life .Read More
University of Hartford is a little known gem. The academics are very strong in every school. The dorms could use some updating but they are not bad.Read More
This University is really welcoming and safe. The staff is very supportive and helpful. I attend the Hartt School for performing arts where the program is intense and professional.Read More
I love the University of Hartford because it has a very diverse population of students. It has many different majors to choose from and lots of cool extracurricular activities to get involved in. I'd recommend attending this university because overall, the faculty and students really seem to respect one another and most people are friendly and welcoming.Read More

Unlike the previous trade fairs, the, 17th Rwanda International Trade Fair limited the number of foreign exhibitors allowed, due to a decrease in space, from 108 foreign exhibitors last year to 78 this year.
According Hannington Namara, the CEO of the Private Sector Federation, the number of foreign exhibitors was reduced due to limited space. "The expo has become an icon. This led to the increased demand of stands, and both national and international exhibitors could not exhibit their products so we had to limit them. We did it on first come first serve basis," Namara explained.
The expo, which started on July 23 at Gikondo Expo Ground and will end on August 6, was officially launched on Thursday by the Minister of Trade and Industry Francois Kanimba.
Speaking at the launch, PSF chairman Benjamin Gasamagera, said the Expo will be a multi-sector trade event that will enhance business exchanges among international and local exhibitors.
"The Expo will offer an excellent platform and business window to manufacturers of goods and providers of services, targeting to bring new investments in the country or expand their businesses within the region and beyond. It is an avenue for showing and launching new and improved technologies in the market, and business meetings among the participants in the Expo will also be identified," Gasamagera added.
"We will continue focusing on building the capacity of private sector to effectively engage in strategic development activities, as well as supporting SMEs and cooperatives' participation in trade fair, exposing them to the planning opportunity" said Minister Kanimba.
"The ministry will work closely with PSF to provide market information to Rwandan businesses and consumers to better inform the trading system. We encourage improving domestic trade, so that we can attract investment to provide employment opportunity," he added.
John Mwagi is a Kenyan who deals in jewelry. Traveling to Rwanda for the expo, he said the Expo will help him to make money and form business partnerships.
"This is the second time I've attended the trade fair. I found that Rwanda is a suitable country to do business, everything goes straight and above all there is peace and security. No investor wishes to invest in an insecure country," Mwagi explained.
"The Expo has started at the right time; we hope to sell more products, exhibiting and learning from what others have brought, so that we can find way of making a difference in our work," said Thiery Baruwari, sales and marketing officer for Sulfo Industries.
Sectors represented in this year's expo include telecommunication and IT, agricultural equipment, machinery, construction and housing, textile, clothing and garments, cultural and tourism items, handcrafts products, furniture, food, and beverages.
Fifteen countries that have participated in this year's expo include include Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Ghana, Egypt, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Iran, India, Malaysia, Singapore, and Poland.
Last year's expo attracted about 300 exhibitors, with108 were foreign exhibitors. This year, there are around 329 exhibitors including 78 foreign companies.
Over 250,000 visitors are expected in this Expo, from over 230,000 visitors last year.
The Expo is organized by Private Sector federation in partnership with Minicom.

Maintaining head to wind
Don''t know what kind of boat you have but.. Why not leave the motor running to keep the boat headed into the wind until you raise the sail? Or maybe you are being pulled by another boat, which you could remain with the boat, head to wind while raising the sail.
When I am reefing my main, I leave the jib up which maitains headway, release the pressure on the main by sheeting out, drop the main to the reefing points, secure it and then sheet back in.
I sailed dinghy''s a long time ago but don''t know the answer to the sail away during recovery from capsizing. I remember being in the boat, using the centerboard as a step before the sail was up in the wind, and the boat always had a tendency to round up as you raised it not veer off.

Clock is Ticking for Telcos to Develop a Digital App Strategy
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Telecom operators are now rallying around the Wholesale Applications Community (WAC) initiative to develop a coherent strategy for succeeding in the digital applications market – but the window of opportunity is closing quickly, and telcos must make meaningful progress in the next 12 months to prove they belong in the digital app business and that they can compete with over-the-top (OTT) app providers such as Apple and Google, according to the latest report from Heavy Reading Service Provider IT Insider (www.heavyreading.com/servsoftware), a paid research service of Heavy Reading (www.heavyreading.com).
Telcos Take One Last WAC at Digital App Success analyzes the WAC initiative and its chances for success in providing a platform for telcos to compete in the digital app sector. The report evaluates the opportunities for suppliers of service delivery platforms (SDPs) as enablers of digital app platforms and evaluates the benefits of having platform-as-a-service (PaaS) capabilities that support an ecosystem of third-party developers. Finally, the report profiles 11 leading vendors in the market.
For a list of companies analyzed in this report, http://img.lightreading.com/ssi/pdf/ssi0511_companies.pdf
"According to WAC, 5.2 billion digital applications were downloaded in 2010, generating EUR1.1 billion in revenue," says Caroline Chappell, research analyst with Heavy Reading Service Provider IT Insider and author of the report. "Recognizing that they need to present a more united front to the developer community, a group of 24 operators came together to create an open, global alliance, with the pledge to offer developers common device and network APIs and the carrot of a 3-billion-strong subscriber base."
WAC represents a credible solution to the challenges posed by telcos' rivals, because it offers developers a common platform for creating apps that run across devices and networks and access to more than 3 billion subscribers globally, Chappell notes. "WAC will help open up the market for SDP players," she says. "It will also expand opportunities for vendors of PaaS technologies to build and/or host national or regional WAC hubs, or WAC-enabled PaaS, on behalf of multiple smaller operators that lack the resources to manage their own developer ecosystems."
Other key findings of Telcos Take One Last WAC at Digital App Success include:
- WAC gained momentum after the recent Mobile World Congress, but it now needs to make real progress to keep up with OTT digital app providers
- HP scored a major coup by winning a deal to build the world's first WAC national hub in South Korea
