2 cups
4 cups
all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1 tablespoon
white sugar
1 tablespoon
butter, softened
3 cups
vegetable oil for frying
1 cup
confectioners' sugar, or as needed
I loved the idea of these - I love making paper snowflakes and thought they'd make awesome cookies for a gift basket. They're a bit too delicate for gifting and no kidding do they take a long time. The taste by itself is like a fried wonton wrapper but sprinkled with the powdered sugar and drizzled with honey they're crunchy and sweet. The dough was good to work with and folded/unfolded easily when cool and dusted w/flour. I won't make this again unless I make it a family event with lots of hands to help. You'll probably have better luck with a good heavy rolling pin and practice with deep frying to golden perfection.
To speed this process along, I suggest using the medal snowflake cookie cutout from William's-Sonoma :0)

text: I just got my Galaxy GTX 480 to replace my GTX 295. Yes, it's not that much of an upgrade, but I was surprised how quiet the GTX 480 is compared to my GTX 295. I could hear the GTX 295 humming along whan I was playing Just Cause 2 or Crysis Warhead, but I can hardly hear the GTX 480. What's more, the GTX 480's fan powers down right after gaming. The performance of the GTX 480 is astounding, easily surpassing the GTX 295 in all my games without the SLI hassles. You should definitely get one of these cards. I don't know why so many reviewers are biased against Nvida. Maybe they all read Semi-Accurate? Once the REAL word gets out on these cards, they'll be even tougher to find!

1785 Nova Constellatio Copper, MS63 Brown1785 C Nova Nova Constellatio Copper, Pointed Rays, Small Date MS63 Brown PCGS. CAC. Crosby 2-A, W-1885, High R.4. Crosby 2-A is the sole Small Date 1785 Nova Constellatio die variety, and as such merits its own Guide Book entry. The variety is very scarce, particularly relative to Crosby 3-B, and is typically encountered in VF condition. PCGS has certified just four examples in grades above XF40, and only the present piece has been graded as Mint State by that service. The three AU pieces are graded AU53, AU55, and AU58, and each has appeared in Heritage auctions the past ten years. The AU55 sold for $8,050 as lot 1975 in our May 2008 Long Beach Signature, and the AU58 realized $10,350 as lot 3008 in our January 2006 FUN Signature. The present lot, the lone certified Mint State example, is certain to bring a much higher price. NGC has certified just four examples, none graded finer than XF40. This favorably compares with the 84 1785 Large Date, Pointed Rays and 15 1785 Large Date, Blunt Rays pieces certified by that firm.

Only Example Certified as Mint State
The origins of the Nova Constellatio series remains mysterious. The design closely resembles the extremely rare 1783 bit, quint, and mark patterns ordered by Pennsylvanian financier Robert Morris. Per Whitman's Colonial Encyclopedia, "the Nova Constellatio copper issues were struck by a private mint in Birmingham, England," yet there is no definitive proof of that. The absence of high grade examples from the holdings of Condor token collectors is also curious. In any event, Nova Constellatios were plentiful in America by the time of pre-Constitution state coinage, since the pieces were used as hosts by Connecticut, New Jersey, and Vermont coppers.
This is an exceptional medium brown example that has satin luster and mark-free surfaces. The strike is incomplete near the all-seeing eye and opposite at the top of US, but the impression is otherwise crisp. One small spot on the upper left loop of the U in US provides an identifier. Listed on page 54 of the 2014 Guide Book. Population: 1 in 63 Brown, none finer (10/13). (PCGS# 823)

While the identity of the mistress that prompted Schwarzenegger's public admission of infedility has been widely reported by now- The wildly held belief is that there's a LOT more to the story…
The rumor mill has been running rampant… and whether it be because of shoddy investigating or a crazy gossip fueled frenzy, now, after lots of buzz and speculation, a continuing question has emerged in the Schwarzenegger love-child scandal… was the movie star and former Governor father to not one, but TWO or MORE illegitimate children??
As the scandal began to unfold publicly, the investigation turned up a more than one potential love-child … Between the reports of Gawker, TMZ and RadarOnline, there seem to be differences of opinion about just who the mistress was, and when the affair happened. So much so that it could potentially be that Arnold actually had more than one child behind the back of wife Maria Shriver.
First we read that he fathered a child with Tammy Baker Tousignant, a flight attendant on the Schwarzenegger's private jet. Some sources say it was widely known that she was his mistress.
Then, it gets complicated.
Some say she was fired in the late 1990s when Maria discovered the indiscretions. Her son even denies that he is Arnold's child, saying it was a fake story… Could this part of the story be completely off?
Radar and TMZ say the real mom is someone completely different! The claim Mildred Patricia Baena, who goes by the nickname Patty, a housekeeper, is the woman Arnold referred to in his admission. She worked for the couple for 20 years. She also has a 14 year old son.
Then came a remark from an unlikely source – actress Jane Seymour – who was quoted by CNN from the red carpet of a movie premiere. The casual interview yielded a striking remark about the scandal (although Seymour now claims she was misquoted):
"I was not even remotely surprised … "The moment I heard it, that there was an announcement of their separation—he was obviously jumping the gun before everyone else told the world of the news," she said. "I heard about two more children. I met someone who knows him well … From what I gather there will be lots of information coming people's way."
NBC news has reported that another woman has asked Schwarzenegger's lawyers to get a DNA test. She claims he is the father of her eight-year-old.
Right now there are more questions than answers, but one thing is for certain – the digging will continue.
Probably. Everyone who knows "Ahnold" says he was getting it on with all and sundry partout, but when an exemplary, thinking lady like Jane Seymour says she isn't "remotely surprised" to hear that Arnold's got illegitimate kids (plural)  brace yourself and have some smelling saltz handy. Yep, Californians voted for this schweinhund. He's the würst.

Dmax is a technical measurment, but it is also a subjective, aesthetic quality. And it is relative. Pt./Pd. prints with Dmax of maximum of 1.5 or so have very convincing black if viewed by themselves. Put them next to a glossy silver gelatin print with Dmax of 2.10 the blacks of the Pt./Pd. don't look so black. But there are no rules that say, this print is better because it has deeper Dmax, or this process is better because it is capable of deeper Dmax.
On the other hand, I do believe it is good practice to get all of the Dmax you can out of a process, in most circumstances. For example, since it is possible to get a Dmax of 1.50 or higher from Pt./Pd., accepting 1.2 or 1.3 is not working to the h ighest standard, in my opinion, unless one has a valid aesthetic reason for doing so.

"He knew things. He'd be talking with someone and someone would make a comment, and he would not provoke things but he'd try to get someone's opinion and bring about facts either about the Bible or the Quran and what it says. I'd hear him talking and talking and talking, and I'd be like, 'Jeez, shut up,' but it was so interesting you didn't say that. I'd be like, 'Where'd you get all this information?'"
Tillman knew football wasn't going to be the end game; he wasn't going to spend his life patrolling the secondary. He had finished his business degree in three-and-a-half years. When he went to the NFL, he started dabbling in the stock market and was working on his master's degree in history in the offseasons.
Tillman and Staat would spend hours talking about how they were going to be successful, whether through football or in other ways.
"Tillman didn't care what he had to do to be successful, he would do it whether it would be sacrifice his time by not watching TV and reading a book and educating himself or spending an extra 45 minutes to an hour in the gym getting stronger or trying different things to improve his ability as an athlete," Staat said.
"That's what was great about him. He didn't live by fear. He just did it." That's why his death was even harder to grasp.
"You thought Pat would walk out of a cave with Osama bin Laden," Tammaro said. "And that's what you just pictured -- him just draggin' [bin Laden's] ass, [saying] 'I got him.'
"You knew there was always the possibility [of Tillman dying], but you just didn't think that was going to happen."
Tillman's conversations with Staat usually came over a Guinness beer. And their friendship grew stronger by the pint.
"It was a way to pass the time and have those moments that most people take for granted," Staat said.
"Yeah we had a couple beers, yeah we got a little tipsy on them, but the thing about it is those are the times I'm going to remember most about him because we got the deepest and most personal about the things we cherished. And one of the biggest things he cherished was his family."
A story about Tillman usually includes the F-word. He'd sling it around like he did quarterbacks, but Tillman knew the time and place. He could impress by joking with his teammates one minute and charming ASU alums the next. He knew how to clean it up.
Although it didn't happen often, his friends remembered, Tillman would trade in his flip-flops for dress shoes. At one ASU football banquet Staat remembered, Tillman laced up a pair of black leather shoes and tightened the knot on his tie.
"He wore ties. ... He didn't look very comfortable in it, but he would wear it," Staat said with a laugh. "Not for very long. By time the ceremony was over, I think the tie came off and the shoes were probably untied."
Tillman's loyalty also ran deep.
One day off while he was with the Cardinals, Tillman was asked to sign 300 books about ASU's history. He made the short trip and signed them. But ASU lost all 300. Hesitant, the school asked Tillman whether he could sign another batch of books.
"He didn't even think twice," Tammaro said.
Tillman's desire to fly under the radar didn't just develop when he decided to enlist. In his pro career, he'd visit schools on his days off. At the first Pat's Run, in 2004, what seemed like an entire elementary school showed up.
"I'm like, 'Hey, glad you guys came, but who are you?'" Edinger said. "Then they start telling me their story, and I'm like, 'You're kidding me.'" That's who Tillman was before he was an American hero. He wasn't in it for the fame or the fortune. He did it to improve himself.
"Salt of the earth," Staat said. "You always knew where you stood with him. He wasn't afraid to hurt your feelings if you were a true friend, and you always knew where you stood with him. There were no smoke and mirrors. He called a spade a spade."

I love stuffed monkeys and reality tv
I find it really difficult to sit here (yes, I am sitting) and describe myself in detail...so I won't. I'll explain the basics but if you would like to know more...just message me (I won't bite, promise). I am new to the area but grew up in Ft. Lauderdale (originally from New York). I am a bit of a nerd and have my own sense of humor (if you can't laugh at yourself then who can?). Work usually keeps me busy during the week (minus summer holiday when I am off) which doesn't leave for much motivation to get out and socialize on the weekends, especially with me not being familiar with the area. I am a very passionate person who adores anything that has to do with the arts. I live for travelling and will be the type of girl who will wake up one morning and persuade you to do a random road trip to nowhere just to get away. I am at a place in my life where I want to explore and enjoy life with someone that has the same likes as I do. Someone that is not about games and bad intentions but about just enjoying great company (lol, I'm not vain...really I'm not). I don't take life too seriously meaning I'm not judgmental and am accepting of others...basically 'm looking forward to meeting someone who is also down for meeting someone to get to know as friends or whatever fate, destiny, the fairies and leprechauns have in store...

Lustrous and Sharply Defined MS62 14-Star 1803 Ten Dollar1803 $10 Extra Star MS62 NGC. B. 1-E. A rare variety that has a most unusual feature. On the cloud on the extreme right, below the letter F, there is a small star that was impressed in the die, lying entirely within the borders of the cloud itself. We cannot think of another variety in any series where this happened in exactly this manner. The only similar occurrence was on the 1799 B-3 dollar that has two stars partially buried beneath the clouds. As such it is quite rare and remained unknown until Harry Bass discovered this feature in 1966.
The strike on the coin is exceptionally bold with only faint softness showing on the breast feathers of the eagle immediately above the shield. There is a noticeable mark in the obverse field near Liberty's nose, and a few very faint adjustment marks on the reverse, with one scratch running from the arrows into the shield. There are only a few scattered light marks elsewhere on the piece. Overall one notices an overall orange-gold color. A very attractive early ten and surely one of the finest examples of this rare variety known. Although labeled as Ex: Ashland City, this piece is actually Ex: 1999 FUN.(#88565) (PCGS# 88565)

Barrie v Terry: Pair go head-to-head with their Super League predictions
Last Updated: 24/07/14 3:21pm
Barrie and Terry are back to tear into each other once more as they go head-to-head with their Super League predictions.
Last season Terry pipped Barrie to the post and proved to be the most successful tipster - but Barrie is determined to make amends in 2014!
Each week they will give their predictions for the Super League games - the boys will score one point for a win, while if they both pick a winner, then the pundit with the closest score gets an extra point.
Current standings
Hull FC v Castleford: 7.30pm, Thurs, Sky Sports 3 HD
Barrie says: Cas are the team that everyone is talking about at the minute. They have won a lot of admiration for doing things on a limited budget – a budget that is a lot less than their peers in the top six. Credit has to go to their coach Daryl Powell – for me he is coach of the year so far. Hull FC are having a difficult year but I think if coach Lee Radford was the right man for the job at the start of the year then for me he still is. The more patience the fans show, the better they will be and I think the long term future of the club is good with some quality young players coming through. It may not be this year but it will be soon.
Prediction: I expect Hull to step back up this week and give a good account of themselves. However, I think Castleford will still win this by 10 points.
Terry says: Hull are probably the underperformers this year - last weekend against Wigan they could only manage one clean break and they missed 52 tackles! They have to improve their defence and start to create some opportunities. They are up against Castleford who are going very nicely indeed. Going to the KC Stadium will hold no fear for Cas and if they start well, then the Hull fans may just start to get a bit irate.
Prediction: Hull to be much better than they were last weekend but I think Cas will win this game by 12 points.
Salford v Leeds: 7.30pm, Fri, Sky Sports 3 HD
Barrie says: The controversy surrounding that Leeds v Cas game is still rumbling on and this week Leeds will be without the services of Kevin Sinfield – who has lost his Gary Lineker tag. I have been around Kevin Sinfield his entire career and some people believe that he does not always outwardly express his passion – but he is a very passionate player whose passion boiled over. I know from speaking to him that he is very remorseful and got up in the changing room and apologised to the team straight after the game. That shows the character of the man. Leeds have a tough job this week because Salford have been getting progressively better. Their performance against Hull KR was very impressive and this is going to be the game of the weekend. Salford will have to be as physical as they were last weekend and if their fullback Kevin Locke can play half as well as he did in his debut against Huddersfield, then they have a real chance.
Prediction: Leeds are going to have to play to 100% of their potential if they want to deny the Red Devils. Danny McGuire will play a huge part as skipper for the night and I am going to go for a Leeds win by six points.
Terry says: Salford looked dangerous, especially in the second half against Hull KR. It has been a good three weeks for the Red Devils and in my opinion it is their defence that has really turned them around. They are focused, playing controlled rugby and forcing errors. What they are doing is slowing the ruck area down and they will need to do that against Leeds who are missing Kevin Sinfield. It was a bit of a shock to see Sinfield react the way that he did – no one has ever seen that from him before.
Prediction: This is a difficult call and I am not sure which way to go – I think I'll go for the upset and say Salford to win by 10.
St Helens v Widnes: 8pm, Fri
Barrie says: Last weekend against Warrington, Widnes to a man were superb – an absolute credit to their town. They are all working their socks off to gain respect and to play to the game plan that Denis Betts is setting. St Helens may not be as battle hardened after their win against relegated Bradford, but I still think they will have a bit too much for Widnes.
Prediction: Widnes will give Saints a real run for their money but I don't think they will have quite enough. Saints to win by eight points in a close game.
Terry says: Saints carry the ball so strongly and they play off the back of that. They play off speed and disruption and they look to wreak havoc with their defence and pounce on any mistakes. Their coach Nathan Brown knows what a good side Widnes are – I think their win against Warrington last weekend was their best performance of the year.
Prediction: I'm going for Widnes to just steal this one by eight points.
London Broncos v Hull KR: 3pm, Sat
Barrie says: Hull KR missed a raft of opportunities last weekend and let Salford run away with the game. They will be very disappointed with the way they played and will be looking to get back to winning ways this weekend. Travis Burns and Adam Walker have both been cleared to play against London which will be a huge boost for Hull KR.
Prediction: Hull KR have a big say in who will and who won't get into the top eight and they will get back to winning ways against London. Hull KR to win by 16 points.
Terry says: It's easy to be critical of a team that have conceded 240 points in the last four games. London just look beaten at the moment and they don't know how to find the rhythm to go and win a game. They make too many mistakes and they have no danger men to grab a game by the scruff of the neck. They are up against Hull KR who seem to take one step forward and two steps back. They do play well at times but then all of a sudden they capitulate.
Prediction: Hull KR need to turn up and focus on playing for the full eight minutes. If they can do that then they will win by 24 points.
Bradford v Wigan: 3pm, Sun
Barrie says: Wigan, as they have done all year, gave their senior plays a rest last weekend, and we saw some really talented young kids in action. Jason Robinson's son Lewis Tierney was excellent but whether he will keep his place for this weekend remains to be seen. Amongst the disappointment of being relegated, it may just mean that the pressure is off for Bradford and they can play with some freedom. Ironically we may see a better showing from them this weekend than we saw last weekend.
Prediction: I am going for Wigan to win but only by 14 points.
Terry says: There is not much to say here - Bradford are heading for the Championship next year and the rebuilding starts from there. I know that James Lowes will be trying to create that winning culture but that is not going to happen here. Wigan will go to Bradford where over the years they have had some ferocious battles, but I cannot see it being one this time round. Wigan are nicely tucked away in second place but I think that points difference is going to play a huge part in the play-offs. So when you do come up against the bottom team you really want to put them to the sword and score as many points as you can.
Prediction: I think Wigan will have just too much for Bradford and will do a number on them. Warriors to win by 34 points.
Huddersfield v Catalan: 3pm, Sun
Barrie says: Some may say that this is an upset but I am going for Catalan to win this one. I have been so impressed by them – they have such a great balance. They have players like Julien Bousquet and Elliott Whitehead – who for me is the best backrower in the game at the minute. He not only scores tries but his work rate and appetite to get stuck in is incredible.
Prediction: Catalans to win by 16 points.
Terry says: Huddersfield look to be hitting their groove at the moment. And the player who is really sticking his hand up for them is Jermaine McGillvary. Leroy Cudjoe and Joe Wardle are also playing very well. The spine of this side can really create chances and they just love to attack. Catalan are playing very well and big Lopini Paea adds so much punch when he comes off the bench as does Mickael Simon. Defence was key in their win against Wakefield, as was their control and their discipline.
Prediction: I think the weekend will be hot and it will be a fast track which will suit Catalans – I think they will win by 14 points.
Warrington v Wakefield: 3pm, Sun
Barrie says: Warrington were given a good lesson last weekend against Widnes. I thought Mickey Higham hit the nail on the head when he said they were out thought and out-enthused. But losses force you to go back and reassess what you are doing wrong and to make those wrongs right. I expect Warrington have done just that this week. They are a good side and I don't expect them to make too many mistakes in the run-up to the play-offs.
Prediction: Warrington to win by 22 points.
Terry says: Warrington made 19 errors last week which really cost them. I did not think that they ran or tackled as hard as Widnes but towards the end they played really well and scored a couple of tries off the back of it. They cannot afford to lose again – if they want to pressure the top four then they need to really buckle down. Will there be a response from Wakefield who were outmuscled last weekend? They looked flat and lost in all departments.
Prediction: I don't think Wakefield can bounce back against Warrington and think the Wolves will win by 24 points.

Stoic Warriors: The Ancient Philosophy Behind the Military Mind
Lande, R. Gregory, Journal of Psychiatry & Law
Stoic Warriors: The Ancient Philosophy Behind the Military Mind, by Nancy Sherman (New York, NY: Oxford University Press, 2005), 242 pp., $26.00.
A steady rain was falling but among a group of soldiers crossing a large open field not a single umbrella sprouted forth. Many observers would dismiss this incident as an ancient relic of the Macho Age. In doing so, these same witnesses neglect an opportunity to reach a treasure chest full of rich cultural symbolism.
In modern America, the U.S. Military occupies ambivalent ground. The vast majority of Americans respect the military and appreciate its power in times of need. A smaller, perhaps more vocal segment splinters into several subgroups, most of whom tend to fear and denigrate America's Armed Forces. The entertainment industry, by and large, resides in this latter segment. The entertainment industry revels in the profits made through all sorts of action movies, many of which focus on some aspect of America's military. Film makers typically portray a caricature of America's fighting men and women as rigid, rules-bound automatons bent on angry destruction of variously sympathetic enemies. While this makes for a good story, and good profits for the entertainment industry, it does little to alter perceptions in line with reality. In fact, an honest expose of the complexities of military life would reduce the value of this worn out stereotype, which is endlessly used as a scripted foil.
The U.S. Military unquestionably stands as a unique subculture in America, invoking a wide range of passions ranging from reverence to reprehension. Students of culture have authored innumerable tracts "explaining" the sociology of military life. Many times, these studies are tainted by the authors' bias, again ranging from reverence to reprehension. Finding an unvarnished expose, not painted by pride or prejudice, is the singular strength of Nancy Sherman's Stoic Warriors: the Ancient Philosophy behind the Military Mind.
Sherman achieves her objective by undertaking a study based on established tenants advanced thousands of years ago by the stoic philosophers. The author chooses this path based on the superficial observation that military personnel are rigid, unemotional, and-stoical. The author breathes literary life into the ancient thinkers such as Socrates, Epictetus, and Seneca, all of whom advanced "the stoic" philosophy. Before a comparison between the stoic philosophy and the military lifestyles can be made, "Stoic warriors" prepares the reader with a concise review of this influential belief system. One of the more important themes revolves around "the questions of how we are to live with the fragility of our bodies, what efforts we are to put into their adornment and sculpture, and what attitudes we are to take when our bodies fail us" (page IS). Stoic philosophers would insist that happiness is a derivative of a principled, virtuous life-not the pursuit of physical attributes.
The casual image of stoicism reveals an individual devoid of emotions. Such a person seems "cold, rigid, and rules bound" - all at the expense of a socially prized display of emotions. As a consequence, anyone simulating stoic "indifference" is considered odd and lacking empathy. In some respects these are the same perceptions held of the military.
The stoic philosophy praises the virtues of self-reflection, discipline, a recognition that emotions are voluntary and subject to control, and a relentless effort to achieve moral independence. As the author notes, "The contest of life has as its prize our own individual happiness. …

Supplier Response
Front Row Mens Short Sleeve rugby shirt
Service rating : The service was speedy and the company were easy to deal with. One small complaint - I ordered 40 x short sleeved rugby tops and saw that in the catalogue the price per item was reduced quite considerably if purchasing more than 36. Disappointed to learn that the bulk discount only applied if the purchases were made in the SAME size. When purchasing this quantity of rugby tops for a tour there are going to be a variety of sizes (from small to XXL) therefore ended up paying more than anticipated If all products are the same (except for the sizes) would have thought that bulk discount should have applied.
Product : Product is what it says. Happy enough with the product.

With his recent spectacular play, it could be argued Joakim Noah could be the face of Chicago sports. He hustles on every play in every game and has earned the respect of his teammates and other players across the league.
But does that make him untouchable on the trade market?
"I don't think there's anyone on this team that is considered untouchable," CSN's Will Perdue said on SportsTalk Live. "I think Derrick Rose is even considered not untouchable."

"That election must be undertaken in a free, fair and transparent manner. It must also be free of taint and open to all Hondurans to exercise their democratic franchise," the State Department statement added.
Zelaya said Wednesday the coup d'état took place to oust him in preparation for "electoral fraud."
"I think [the United States] cannot put its prestige on the line and submit to a small group of people that are pro-coup and do not accept the opinion of the international community," Zelaya said Wednesday at a talk he gave at The George Washington University about democracy in Honduras.
"This is a first snatching of democracy during the Obama administration," he said.
Zelaya, who only had five months left of his term when he was ousted, said he would return to Honduras before his term ended in December – in one way or another.
In an interview with the Washington Post, Zelaya said that "When diplomatic action runs out, when the United States indicates it can't do any more, I am not going to simply sit around with my arms crossed."
He said he would look for "fighting strategies" and "seek actions on my return that kick the coup plotters out of power."
The Organization of American States suspended Honduras' membership, and the United Nations General Assembly unanimously condemned the coup. In the U.S., President Barack Obama denounced the coup and canceled $16.5 million in military aid to Honduras.
But despite international pressure and threats that Honduran elections will not be recognized by the international community including regional neighbors like Mexico, the interim government in Honduras has fastly held together.
"The degree of resistance of the de facto government has I think taken everyone by surprise -- their stubbornness," said McClintock, director of George Washington University's Latin American and Hemispheric Studies Program.
"The sanctions could backfire. We have to be careful about not being so across the board, and that we try to pass measures that hurt the de facto government," she said.
McClintock said that some of those measures like visa suspensions were articulated already by U.S. officials, but enforcement so far has been "sporadic."
"There's still US soldiers in Honduras. I think it's important to really stand very firm on the military aid and the withdrawal of U.S. military involvement with the Honduran military forces," she said.
"It's important to send signals to the Honduran military that it's not business as usual." Washington has had a difficult time choosing between a leftist Latin American leader who tried to pass a referendum that his opponents say could have lead to abolishing term limits, and a military ouster of a democratically elected President.
U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., ranking Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, commented on the decision to pull aid from Honduras, "The U.S. approach to friends and foes is completely backwards. While appeasing the enemies of freedom worldwide, we punish those in Honduras struggling to preserve the rule of law, fundamental liberties, and democratic values."
Zelaya insisted that the real cause for the June coup was a power struggle by six of the most powerful families in Honduras, who he says control the economy and the national Congress. That is why, Zelaya said, the former President of the Congress is now the President of the Republic.
"He [Roberto Micheletti] named himself President," he said.

Don't put those flashlights and generators away just yet.
A nor'easter is expected to bring 1 to 2 inches of rain, high winds and moderate-to-minor coastal flooding to this storm-weary region Wednesday and Thursday. Outages from downed trees and fallen lines are again a possibility, just as many local residents are starting to settle back in to the comforts and convenience of electrified homes after multiple days without power due to Hurricane Sandy.
"Learn from the last storm. The more you can prepare the more comfortable you'll be," said David Roberge, emergency management director for Old Lyme, one of the area towns hardest hit by Sandy. Although the coming storm isn't expected to be nearly as severe as last week's, he advised residents to have extra blankets, batteries and other supplies ready. Temperatures are expected to be in the 30s and 40s on Wednesday and Thursday. The trailer opened by the town last week where residents without power can get showers won't be put away just yet, Roberge added.
In preparation, Connecticut Light & Power has decided to keep supplemental repair crews it brought in for the hurricane on hand until after the nor'easter, spokesman Frank Poirot said Monday.
The utility is also deploying about 1,600 tree workers out ahead of the storm to pre-emptively trim any weakened limbs and leaning trunks that could be vulnerable in the coming storm, he said.
"We're watching the weather very closely," he said.
David Stark, meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said the peak of the storm is expected to be Wednesday night into early Thursday. He also cautioned that the forecast could change dramatically over the next 24 hours.
"There's still a lot of uncertainty," he said. "But it doesn't look like this will be like what we saw with Sandy."
As of 4 p.m. Monday, the weather service forecast sustained winds of 30 to 40 mph and gusts that could reach as high as 65 mph during the nor'easter. A high-wind watch has been issued for Wednesday morning until late Wednesday night, and a coastal flood watch was issued for Wednesday afternoon to Thursday morning.
Storm surge is expected to be 2½ to 4½ feet above normal high tide at 4 a.m. Thursday, Stark said. Unlike Sandy, which arrived during a full moon when tides were at their peak, the nor'easter is arriving toward the opposite end of the lunar cycle, he noted.
Richard Morris, emergency management director for East Lyme, said he's monitoring the weather closely and will decide based on today's forecast from the National Weather Service whether the town would need to issue any evacuation orders or take other actions.
"We're prepared to ramp back up and do whatever we need to do," he said.
Neighborhoods such as Crescent Beach and Oak Grove with heavy damage from the storm have made significant progress toward cleaning up, he said, and appear ready to withstand the nor'easter.
"The owners have done the very best they can to secure their properties with tarp or plywood," Morris said.
Emergency preparedness officials are advising homeowners to take time today to clean yards of any fallen limbs and lingering storm debris that could become airborne in high winds, and trim any tree limbs on their property that could threaten power lines.
"But it should be anywhere near as bad as what we just went through," said Joe Sastre, emergency management director for Groton.
New London's emergency management director, Reid Burdick, asked owners of private beaches to remove debris that was piled on the waterfront by Hurricane Sandy ahead of the nor'easter. The coming storm surge is likely to sweep all the broken boards, tires and other debris off one beach and deposit it on another.

How Much Better is the New GS?

Joined: Oct 2008

Oddometer: 286
I LOVE GS's, and my old 2009 GS was "one of the best motorcycles" I've owned. As for the new LCGS, I can see why BMW did what they did and I think its the perfect machine for people who like to wheelie & want that feel of a bit more HP, with a smoother feeling motor. More importantly, the new LCGS has better suspension and the electronic cruise control is fantastic!!!! In short, its a beautiful/well executed machine.
However, for me (I guess I'm old school), I prefer the previous "camhead" version and because of that, and my riding style/needs I got a 2013 R1200R (which I equally like for different reasons, compared to my previous 2009 GS).
For the "real roads of life" and going through canyon roads with 15 mph to 110 mph corners with no chicken strips, my new 110 HP camhead R12R, like my previous hexhead 2009 GS will stay with and sometimes beat 600cc to 1000cc sport-bikes, therefore I have no need for the LCGS's increased HP (however, I sure wish I had its electronic cruise control and cute LCD running lights). Anyway, I guess it boils down to different strokes for different folks.

NOGALES, Ariz. — Gun runners once were so nonchalant about driving into Mexico that one smuggler stashed a .50-caliber rifle on the top of the engine block of a sedan, the weapon visible to anyone who bothered to pop the hood.
It was 2010 and word hadn't yet spread that U.S. officials were beefing up outbound inspections, searching for guns that were fueling Mexico's raging drug war. Border agents confiscated the rifle and hundreds of other weapons and ammunition during the first few years of stepped-up enforcement along the southwestern border, federal data show.
Mexican officials have also taken action, installing scales to see whether southbound cars are abnormally overweight — a possible indication of gun smuggling.
But as inspections have become more aggressive, smugglers have become more sophisticated.
Instead of sending a big shipment of AK-47s in one vehicle, U.S. officials said, arms traffickers dismantle weapons and transport the pieces in separate vehicles. A bolt carrier here. A flash hider there.
Smugglers have also used drivers who theoretically would avoid suspicion. Agents once recovered ammunition in the molding of a minivan. The vehicle was driven by a father. Mom sat beside him, with kids in the back.
In December, one smuggler trying to pass through the San Luis port of entry in western Arizona concealed ammunition magazines in the rear seat, door panels and rear bumper of a 1991 Oldsmobile Cutlass.
Jose Angel Palacios pleaded guilty in May to smuggling 60 magazines that could be used with AK-47s, a weapon of choice for drug cartel enforcers. Palacios, 20, a Mexican national, told authorities he had been promised $150 to make the delivery.
At least 2 of every 3 firearms confiscated in Mexico from 2007 to 2011 were purchased in the United States and smuggled south, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Many of the weapons ended up in the hands of criminal organizations and were used against the military, journalists and civilians.
"In the last six years, they had over 70,000 people murdered in drug-related violence, and a vast majority were using very sophisticated firearms that came from the United States," said Eric Olson, associate director of the Latin American Program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center in Washington. "It's having a dramatic impact on Mexico."
Experts and scholars say the problem is due largely to laws that make it difficult to prosecute gun trafficking, especially by straw buyers — people who can pass background checks and purchase guns only to turn them over to drug cartels.
Recently, proposals intended to curtail gun trafficking died in Congress. The legislation faced stiff opposition by some gun rights groups, such as the National Rifle Assn.'s lobbying arm.
"I think the 2nd Amendment is being scapegoated for a problem that is rooted in Mexico," said Andrew Arulanandam, spokesman for the NRA Institute for Legislative Action. "There is pervasive corruption within the ranks of government, military, law enforcement and judiciary. That's the root of the problem."
Mexican officials did not provide comment on the issue despite repeated inquires.
The NRA took issue with the ATF data on gun smuggling, describing the agency's findings as incomplete because they relied on Mexican officials, who the NRA says are likely to report guns only from the U.S.
"You are talking about multimillion-dollar criminal enterprises that have sophisticated armored cars," Arulanandam said. "The very premise that these drug cartels are buying their firearms one firearm at a time from a gun show in Arizona or Texas is ludicrous."
Still, that is what's happening, contended Olson, who leads a group of researchers who study gun trafficking.
In a report, Olson's group argued that prosecuting gun trafficking is difficult because of weak or imprecise laws. Straw purchasing is not a felony under federal law. If convicted, a straw purchaser may simply have to pay a fine of a few hundred dollars for what amounts to lying on a form.
In Arizona, going after straw buyers has proved frustrating, said former Arizona Atty. Gen. Terry Goddard.
He recalls how state prosecutors in 2008 accused the owner of X Caliber Guns, a gun shop in a Phoenix suburb, of arming Mexican cartels. A judge dismissed the case, stating there wasn't enough proof, based on the state law's limited definition of straw purchasing.

NPD: iTunes Leads The Race In Online Video On Demand [Report]
Awhile back it was reported that the iTunes Store is one of the biggest media companies in the world. The iTunes Store generated $8.5 billion in revenue last year, which is more than many of America's top media companies combined.
Apple has been the tech industry's pioneer for abandoning physical media, and iTunes is a testament to the success of digital downloads. According to a new report from the NPD Group, iTunes dominates its competitors in terms of online video on demand.

We've got best practices from LivingSocial and estate sale guru Everything But The House in our next Insight webinar. Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium reached a significant milestone in its efforts to raise cash to pay for development, and that prompted it to add an important new item to the game: a towel. Fans have contributed more than $42 million to the production of Star Citizen. That's the total Cloud Imperium has raised in crowdfunding on its own site as well as through the Kickstarter platform to play for the space-trading and dogfighting simulator. The space sim's in production now, and it will debut at some point in 2015. To celebrate reaching $42 million, Star Citizen director Chris Roberts revealed that his team is adding a towel to the game in a reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. That beloved sci-fi comedy hypothesized that the meaning of life, the universe, and everything is 42. "Forty-two million dollars in crowd funding: I can't think of a better symbolic victory than reaching that number in crowd funding," Roberts wrote in a blog post. "The 'meaning of life, the universe and everything' is now the amount pledged to let us build a new universe." In addition to the towel, which anyone who backed up to this point will get in their hangar, the developer is also expanding other areas of Star Citizen. This includes adding more features to its in-game encyclopedia called The Observist. Those who've already backed will also get an exclusive version of the fictional operating system that helps players keep their affairs in order. Finally, the studio is also designing and adding a new fighter called the Aegis Dynamics Gladius-class light fighter. Cloud Imperium's crowdfunding achievement comes directly after it showed off Star Citizen in action at the Penny Arcade Expo East in Boston over the weekend. Players even got a chance to go play with its Arena Commander mode, which enables players to dogfight with other ships in space. "I'd like to thank so many of you for coming out to PAX East to see the Arena Commander reveal," wrote Roberts. "We'll be sharing some additional footage later in the week to let everyone see what we weren't able to show at the event. Technical glitches aside, it was extremely gratifying to see everyone's reactions. Everyone who got their hands on the game loved it, and more importantly, they immediately understood where we're going for Star Citizen." Star Citizen is easily one of the most-successful crowdfunding games ever. In addition to dogfighting, Cloud Imperium is working on creating a persistent world where trading with other humans and citizenship to a galactic government will affect everyone's experience.

A new report from the Guttmacher Institute highlights the urgency for increasing U.S. international family planning assistance and for the US to help mitigate the impact of unsafe abortion.
For women's rights groups seeking to promote reproductive justice through health reform–including equity of access for poor women to all legal reproductive and sexual health services including abortion services–the past few months have been a serious disappointment.
The impact of repealing the global gag rule will be significant. But repealing the gag rule will not end the longstanding ban on foreign aid for safe abortion care.
A new poll shows that the public is at odds with their country's laws. Most people reject using criminal penalties to prevent abortions.

Betty Burgers Eat Inn on Pacific storms out of the gate with dynamite menu additions and a full bar
When Betty Burgers' sister restaurant Vida left town, Betty moved right in to the space on Pacific Avenue, leaving her shiny old Airstream trailer right on the new patio. Fried chicken, buttermilk biscuits and mashed potatoes with gravy are just a taste of the down-home-style comfort food that Betty's slingin' at her new Eat Inn.
The restaurant was packed on opening weekend, and a week later during a mid-week late lunch it was almost at capacity. The smiling, energetic staff was still learning the ropes – there was no service on the patio for ten minutes and then we were double-covered. A few days later, service was perfect on a very busy dinner shift.

An Illinois State Police trooper who allegedly choked a motorist during a traffic stop last fall has received a letter of "no confidence" from St. Clair County State's Attorney Brendan Kelly.
Bradley G. Wilken, 44, of Belleville, has credibility issues that will no longer allow him to be a witness in cases prosecuted by Kelly's office, according to the letter.
Wilken is married to former Southwestern Illinois Correctional Center guard Victoria Castillo Wilken, 33, who recently was charged with five counts of custodial sexual misconduct and one count of official misconduct for allegedly engaging in sex with an inmate. Her case is pending.
Criminal charges were not issued against Wilken.
Wilken, who last year earned $84,278, is currently on restricted duty, according to ISP spokesman Monique Bond. Wilken will have no contact with the public, she said.
An ISP Department of Internal investigation is ongoing, Bond said.
"The Illinois State Police take this matter seriously and will not tolerate misconduct an any level," Illinois State Police Director Hiram Grau said in a statement.
In a letter dated July 8 to Grau, Kelly stated that Wilken's conduct during the traffic stop of college student Kevin Gutknecht on Nov. 29 has resulted in a stance of "no confidence" in Wilken as a prosecution witness.
" ... I have decided that Wilken's conduct with the student, his violations of policy, as well as his other unprofessional incidents combine to create a credibility deficit that would prevent my office from calling as a witness in court," Kelly wrote.
The letter from Kelly, obtained under an Illinois Freedom of Information Act request, stated that Wilken stopped Gutknecht on Interstate 64 and Wilken's dashboard camera shows Wilken reaching inside Gutknecht's car at the end of the stop.
"The video does not show exactly what happened inside the student's car, it does not reveal the actions of the student in the car and there is no audio recording to reveal what was being said a the time of the incident," the letter stated.
Gutknecht called 911 after the stop to make a complaint. Gutknecht stated, according to Kelly's letter, that Wilken used profanities during the stop, then was grabbed Gutknecht around the neck by Wilken. Gutknecht used his phone to take pictures of the marks on his neck.
After Gutknecht made the 911 call, Wilken again stopped Gutknecht, but Wilken turned off his audio and video recorders, in violation of Illinois State Police policy, Kelly said.
Gutknecht refused to roll down his window, the letter stated, and Wilken asked him why Gutknecht's shirt was off and what he was doing with his phone.
Gutknecht was ticketed for speeding, but the charge was later dismissed.
Gutknecht, of Casper, Wyo., could not be reached for comment.
In his letter, Kelly further stated that Wilken:
* has a history of anger management issues.
* has been disciplined for an aggressive outburst in the Ozarks against a water patrol officer.
* has been disciplined for unprofessional aggressive conduct at a simulation exercise in Springfield where he allegedly purposely shot in the direction of minor participants playing the roles of hostages. His actions caused the exercise to be terminated.
Kelly declined to comment. The letter stated prosecutors could not determine whether it was a justified use of force and an improper or criminal use of force.
Former St. Clair County State's Attorney Robert Haida raised credibility issues with 19 officers from at least six departments across the county. Of those, nine East St. Louis officers were on Haida's list of officers with "substantial credibility issues," including Detective Ricky Perry, Rudy McIntosh, Danielle More, Mario Fennoy, Allen Bonds, Debra Simpkins, Keith Randolph and Nick Mueller and former Lt. Lance Murphy.
In 2013, Kelly reiterated that his office would not use Perry as a key witness in any state case.
Kelly has charged 19 public officials with official misconduct, including former New Athens police chief Dallas Hill, who pleaded guilty and admitted that he took an Apple iPod and Apple iPad from evidence and used them for personal matters.
In April, Illinois State Trooper Corey Alberson was charged with aggravated battery after a strip search during a traffic stop in East St. Louis.
Prosecutors alleged that Alberson stopped a man on North Ninth Street in East St. Louis on Jan. 21, 2013, and pulled down his pants without his consent, exposing his buttocks and then visually examined Campbell's buttocks with a flashlight while holding his pants down.
The search occurred on a public roadway.
The charges against Alberson are pending. The cases against Alberson and Wilken were investigated by Illinois State Police Department of Internal Investigations.

Hi yall,
I have Aperture 3.4.3.
Originally, I got a CD version which I upgraded to 3.4.3.
It worked perfectly well for years since I got it and I had no problem with the last version (3.4.3, I mean) until a few weeks ago.
I have it installed on my iMac and on my MacBook Pro.
I've worked with the photostream without any problem but lately (I would say early in march), I started to have problems with Aperture on my iMac.
I realized that whenever I tried to make the photostream work, it crashed Aperture. The only way out is to force the application to quit. And when I launch Aperture again, it crahes immediately. It seems my Aperture Library is corrupted.
So, I uninstalled Aperture with AppCleaner and started the installation from scratch (CD and then upgrades from iTunes).
No more success
So, I started Aperture with a brand new "empty" Aperture Library and it launches without any problem as long as I don't try to use photostream.
In the OSX Preference Panel, Photostream is checked (only for my own stream since I don't share my pictures with others). And again, it corrupts my Library as soon as I try to connect photostream in Aperture.
When I use a previous version of my Aperture Library (saved with Time Machine) I have a collection of photostreams listed in the left column going back as far as october 2011 but no way to connect again to iCloud without crashing and corrpting my Library.
Two more things:
1) I don't have the same problem on my MacBook Pro (same OSX version - 10.8.3 - and same version of Aperture 3.4.3) and both machines are connected to the same iCloud account.
2) I have the same problem with iPhoto on my iMac and it works perfectly well on my MacBook Pro.
Anyone knows this problem?

The fact that the famous rhino is beside your name makes your comment even more hilarious. To be fair, though, for formal balls, young women would display a bit of cleavage to show off their milky white skin, which was sexy back then. But showing off some ankles was considered to be scandalous. Thank you for your input. I appreciate it.

The University of Rhode Island's Sociology Club invites and encourages those pursuing degrees in sociology, as well as anyone interested in topics and current issues concerning sociology, to get involved and help facilitate social progress from a personal, innovative, and enlightening approach.
Why The Iron Cage Society?
"[T]he care for external goods should only lie on the shoulders of the 'saint like a light cloak', which can be thrown aside at any moment. But fate decreed that the cloak should become an iron cage."
The sociological conception of the Iron Cage, constructed by Max Weber, refers to the constricting societal systems we have perpetuated as a modern civilization.
These social systems play a major role in how the characteristics of individuals and communities are shaped. The Iron Cage Society is devoted to creating and sustaining a stable, supportive, and equal student community structure.
Consider it our very own iron cage.
Through the reinforcement of already present social positives, as well as through facilitating new forms of social stability, our mission is to create and perpetuate social progress for those "who will live in that iron cage in the future.
So don't miss this opportunity to have an active voice in building the iron cage of tomorrow. Whether it is through community service efforts, networking with other on campus organizations, or from the insight gained by guest speakers and group discussions; The Iron Cage Society acts as a catalyst for personal, professional, and communal growth.
This group, always open to new members and ideas, encourages students to join by emailing Nicholas Casali (information below) with your name and email so you can get involved and receive details concerning club meetings and events.

"It takes a lot of time to know your mind." Its a simple statement, yet earnest and profound in its offering.
Eleven years into their career, Louisville's My Morning Jacket have released five highly acclaimed, classic albums, the live concert album and DVD Okonokos, and have been revered for their legendary live performances. With such an expansive catalogue, it's been impossible in recent years for the band to perform every last MMJ favorite for one venue… that is, until this October. In an unprecedented move, New York City's Terminal 5 will be presenting a historic five night run of shows where the band will perform one of

It seems like I have been on a huge My Morning Jacket kick since I first saw them at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in 2003. Then, their epic performance in the pouring rain the following year made me a real die hard fan. They seemed to etch their names into fame through the Bonnaroo vehicle as ten of thousands of fans have grown to love the Louisville, Kentucky rock band.
Perhaps the greatest thing about music is that it knows no restraints. Musicians explore this vast territory to varying degrees, and with varying levels of success. Some choose to specify, and others choose to generalize. The term "genre" has less and less significance all the time, obvious when you look at the staggering number of sub-niche's we need to describe just rock and roll. Alternative, progressive, pop, punk, funk, fusion, indie, etc., etc.
Few venues in the world are finer places to see live music than Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado. On a clear summer night under a bright moon with a cool breeze, few places are finer to be, period. It is a venue ideally suited to big sounds and bright lights, as both of these will inevitably play upon and dance between the sheer vertical red stone cliff faces. True fans, and it doesn't matter of whom, show up early and tail gate in the parking lots, soaking up the sun and self-medicating themselves in prepara

In this problem I'm asked to simplify the square root of 120. Now a lot of students when they first get to these problems are going to grab their calculators and they're going to say wait a second there is no square root of 120. Well you're kind of right, the square root of 120 isn't a whole number but if you try it on your calculator, you'll see the square root of 120 is the decimal 10.94 blah, blah, blah. 10 point 94, that's my, oh 95 sorry that's my decimal approximation. To show it's an approximation I would write instead of an equal sign, I'd write two little squiggles, but that's not the answer we're looking for. The whole point of simplifying square roots is to be able to rewrite this using perfect square factors, so let me think about this.
When approaching problems where I'm asked to simplify square roots, I want to look for factors that are perfect squares meaning of my list of perfect squares like 1, 4, 9, 16 blah, blah, blah I'm looking for things that multiply into 120. Right away, I personally thought that 4 multiplies into 120. The square root of 120 is equal to the square root of 4 times the square root of 30. I know what the square root of 4. The square root of 4 is 2, so I'm working with so far 2 times the square root of 30.
Now what I want to do is look at 30 see if I can think of any perfect square numbers that multiply into 30. Again my perfect square numbers are 1 which I know goes into 30 because 1 goes into everything, so that can help me 1, 4, 4 doesn't go into 30, 9 doesn't go into 30, what's next 1, 2, 3 16 doesn't go into 30 nothing else goes into 30, so I think that this is going to be my final.
I think the simplified form of square root of 120 is 2 times the square root of 30. We don't write it without multiply sign there; we just write it like that. That's my final answer. The way I could check is by doing on my calculator 2 times the square root of 30 and see if I get 10.95 and indeed I do.
The thing that's really interesting or really important to know about these problems is that 10.95 again is an approximation. The real answer is like 10 point 9543 blah, blah, blah it's something really long, that's an approximation it's not exact. This is an exact simplification of square root of 120. That's why it's an important skill to have. You want to make sure you're able to keep the exact numbers especially when you get into your careers of Math and Science; you want to have exact numbers rather than decimal approximations.

Beginning to wonder about this...
I am very funny and can have a good time no matter where I am or who I am with! I can't carry a tune to save my life but I can carry a conversation with anyone imaginable. I am just as happy cutting up the dance floor with some friends as I am watching a hockey game from the couch. Friends describe me as adventurous, quick-witted and intelligent. I'm not afraid to speak my mind and stand up for what I believe in. I keep a positive attitude, surround myself with happy people and enjoy making new friends wherever I go. I don't have any crazy deal breaker lists but I need a great guy who is intelligent, funny and comfortable in his own skin. I know people say opposites attract but I am an extrovert and think I am best matched with someone similar. You also need to be able to laugh at my humor, join me on the dance floor (or at least be willing to watch me without laughing) and be able to keep me on my toes. I will be first person to admit I do not photograph well. I've been told my pictures don't do me justice. I'm not sure how to change that. I'm certainly open to suggestions.

My favorite type of music varies on my mood. I can listen to just about anything. I don't really watch too much television because I'd rather be doing something more active.
I like to spend time with my family and friends. I like exploring new areas, going to hockey games, and listening to live music. I also enjoy hanging out at home, cuddling up on the couch, and watching a movie. I'm pretty content with whatever.
I read the newspaper every day, it's important to me to keep up on current events. I like to read mysteries and enjoy books by Patricia Cornwell and Nicholas Sparks.

The Kraft Food Group has announced a voluntary recall of a series of string cheese products.
Kraft's recall affected 22 of its string cheese products, totaling about 735,000 cases.
The Huffington Post reported that the recall came after the company received reports of cheese spoiling and changing color. Kraft's cheese offerings that are being recalled have "Best When Used By" dates from Oct. 25 through Feb. 11. Kraft is investigating the cause.
According to The Stir, people who have purchased Kraft string cheeses will locate the "Best When Used By" date on the back and at the bottom of packages that are multi-count. Individual Kraft cheese items have the date on the bottom front.
Customers can return their string cheese product for an exchange or refund, or call Kraft Consumer Relations at 1-800-816-9432 between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Kraft Foods addressed customers who purchase their Polly-O String Cheese and String Cheese Twists items in a press release, saying, according to kraftfoodsgroup.com, "These are natural cheeses that contain no added preservatives, and it's not unusual for cheese to spoil over time. In this situation, we saw spoilage occurring before the "Best When Used By" Date. We knew the right thing to do for our consumers was to voluntarily recall the affected product."
The 22 recalled products can be found here.

Chronic low blood sugar leads to vision loss, reveals SUNY Upstate study
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Chronic low blood sugar—or hypoglycemia—can hasten age-related vision loss, new research in mice suggests.
The study by researchers at SUNY Upstate Medical University found that metabolic stress from moderate hypoglycemia led to loss of retinal function in mice, loss of visual acuity and eventual death of retinal cells.
The study, reported last month in the Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences, is the first to demonstrate a metabolic-stress induced loss of vision in mammals. "Linkage between low blood glucose and loss of vision in mice may highlight the importance for glycemic control in diabetics and retinal diseases related to metabolic stress as macular degeneration," noted study author Robert Barlow, Ph.D., SUNY Upstate professor of ophthalmology.
To assess the effect of chronic low blood glucose on vision, researchers used mice bred to be hypoglycemic. They found that chronic hypoglycemia in these mice led to decreased retinal function, retinal cell death, and loss of visual acuity by 10 months of age, whereas mice with normal glucose levels retained visual acuity past 16 months. Restoring blood glucose to normal levels through the diet delayed vision loss in the mutant mice by several months.
The study's finding may be of special importance to diabetics, who are susceptible to recurrent hypoglycemia because of intensive insulin treatment. "These actions of recurrent and chronic hypoglycemia, which our research addressed, may further underscore the importance of glycemic control by diabetics," Barlow said.
