Care for a Bobcat
Roll over image to zoom in
For over 20 years, The Fund for Animals Wildlife Center has been home to rescued bobcats such as Peanut. This sweet old lady, who just celebrated her 16th birthday, was originally raised by humans and bound to be part of the illegal wildlife pet trade. She, along with 8 other bobcats, call the wildlife center in Ramona, CA, home.
While other bobcats are able to be rehabilitated and released back into the wild, the motley crew of resident bobcats were not rescued in time to be taught survival skills. Instead, they were hand-reared inside private homes and depend on people for food and shelter. The staff and volunteers of the wildlife center at Ramona tend to their every need, this includes providing fun toys to keep their minds enriched and their bodies moving. As the bobcat population ages, they also get special medical attention to aide with arthritis and other ailments that affect geriatric felines, such as renal disease.
You can help a rescued bobcat! $15 provides food and medicine for one day, helping a resident bobcat stay healthy and happy.

After eruption the lava within a crater will sink back down the hole it erupted from, often leaving a jagged 'bath tub ring' of lava round the edge. It started raining towards the end of the walk.

It was even better without plastic, metal, and glass in front of my eyes (aside from the actual useful glass that allow me to see). The day was coming to an end so I had to hurry along to catch the bus. It was a real shame too because after dark is when the crater within the crater starts to glow.

Boeing to modernize U.S. Air Force GPS net
Washington (UPI) Feb 12, 2013
Boeing will modernize the U.S. Air Force GPS network, including software and systems affecting its constellation of satellites amid increasing competition in space and concerns over global security. Global Positioning Systems have proved extremely useful in less than half a century but concerns over hacker malware threats and terrorism have made GPS a high priority. Although managed by the Air Force, the U.S.-led GPS network is free to use but requires constant investment to keep it up t ... read more

Ordered 3 sets of wedges over three months ago.
It didn't just never arrived but they never gave me any notice. After a few emails and over seas telephone calls ( I am resident in France), I finally managed to get hold of a person at after sales team. I re-ordered the items and gave my credit card details over the phone which the transactions were made immediately.
That was over 60 days ago. And still the wedges never arrived. Again I made a few e mails and phone calls and it turned out to be that they sold me articles which they never had in their stock!!!
They promised me that the money will be refunded in 10 days but now over a months later still no news and they never return the e mails and almost impossible to catch anybody over the phone.
Do NOT USE THIS SITE they are simply not serious enough dispute their on line TV site and the apearance!!

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
Everton Fox | 06 May 2013 10:31 GMT | Environment, Humanitarian crises, Weather, Bangladesh, India
The pre-monsoon heat is now building rapidly across South Asia ahead of the pending summer rains. As those temperatures continue to creep up we are now seeing our first wave of floods developing over parts of the region.The hottest weather so far has been recorded over the central and northern Plains of India. Temperatures here are around five degrees above average. On Sunday a high of 46.3 Celsius was recorded at Allahabad in Uttar Pradesh.Conversely, temperatures are below average in northeastern India, with highs around eight degrees below average over West Bengal and Sikkim. That is because these parts of India along with much of Bangladesh have been shrouded by thunder clouds recently.Days of incessant, heavy rainfall have swollen the Brahmaputra River flooding parts of the Majuli river island in Jorhat, which is Assam state's second largest city. Floodwaters have breached a dyke here and submerged 350 hectares of farmland in the process.These floods have come earlier than in the past few years and there has already been a loss of crops as the waters continue to rise. On Sunday, the heaviest rainfall recorded was in Agartala, the capital of the state of Tripura and second largest city in North-east India after Guwahati. In Agartala we saw 89mm of rain in 24 hours. The city lies on the bank of Haora River and is located 2 km from Bangladesh. Further south, on the other side of the Ganges, Cox's Bazar had 72mm of rain.The offending area of low pressure responsible for the rain looks set to stay in place for much of this coming week. Further flooding looks inevitable.

Flames fail to sign 2009 first round pick Tim Erixon, deal him to Rangers
Jun 1, 2011, 5:00 PM EDT
It's safe to say that Flames GM Jay Feaster isn't endearing himself to many Flames fans today. Calgary has been attempting to negotiate an entry level contract with 2009 first round pick Tim Erixon since he was picked in June 2009. The Flames had to get a deal done and signed with Erixon by 5 p.m. ET today or else Erixon would've been able to re-enter this year's NHL Draft.
With Feaster unable to work out a deal and looking to get more than the one second round pick compensation the Flames would have received had Erixon re-entered the draft, Erixon was traded to the New York Rangers along with a fifth round pick in exchange for prospect Roman Horak and two second round picks.
Erixon was rated as Calgary's top prospect by Hockey's Future and as a defenseman at 6'2″ 190 he's a physical kid with the ability to move the puck as well. He's got NHL roots as his father is former New York Rangers forward Jan Erixon. For the Rangers it works out to be a potential steal yet again on defense for an organization already loaded up with good prospect depth on the blue line.
They were able to get former Montreal first round pick Ryan McDonagh from Montreal in the Scott Gomez deal and now with Erixon in the fold the Rangers new plan of building with talented youth gets even better. At 20 years-old there's the chance that Erixon starts next year with the Rangers out of training camp. That possibility and high ceiling for him is a good reason why Flames fans are furious about this severe lack of ability to get what should've been a basic deal done. In this situation the Flames' poor salary cap management might be to blame.
With the possibility of bonuses factored in and the likely wont by Erixon to be a part of the big club right away, his deal would've been pricey for the Flames to add. According to CapGeek the Flames are alreaday at $55 million against the cap for next season. A deal with Erixon would've added anywhere from $2 to $3 million per year on his entry level contract. Even with the cap supposedly slated to go up next season, the Flames would've been left with little cap space and the need to get a few more players signed. It's not a good position to be in but for Feaster if the choice broke down to deciding to sign a top prospect or continuing to manage toxic assets and he chose the latter, that's pretty inexcusable especially for an organization severely lacking top end prospect depth.
If Erixon pans out at all this is a runaway victory of a deal for the Rangers. The best the Flames can hope for is that they find some great picks in the second round of the draft and that Horak becomes a NHL starter. We know he was under the gun to get a deal done with the deadline being today, but this shapes up to be a very poor deal on paper for Calgary and one that will send Flames fans into a frustrated tizzy over.

Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (Metro) plans to retrofit more than 500 fare vending machines at stations throughout the system to dispense SmarTrip cards, rather than paper fare cards. The contract for the ticket vending machines has not yet been awarded, according to Metro. Metro is steadily transitioning away from the use of 1970s-era magnetic paper farecard technology. The machinery used to process paper fare cards is outmoded and includes an intricate system of rollers, printers, sensors, and wiring that is difficult and time-consuming to maintain when compared to the contactless SmarTrip technology.Today, more than 90% of all Metrorail riders already use a SmarTrip card to pay for their trip.According to Metro, SmarTrip is faster, safer and more convenient than using a paper farecard in several ways, including:
Even after all upgrades are completed, paper fare cards will continue to be accepted for a period of time to allow riders ample time to deplete their value. Eliminating paper fare cards has several benefits for riders and for Metro, including faster entry/exit for riders; more reliable fare gates; and the reduction of paper waste.
Customers can expect to start seeing upgraded fare vending machines in Metrorail stations late next year. Metro is currently advancing a project that will eventually allow riders to pay for Metro travel using contactless debit or credit cards, mobile phones or federal ID cards.
Tier One modernizes 300 stops along two of GRTC's busiest routes with each stop receiving upgrades that include new flags with clearly visible route and bus stop numbers as well as eye-level, easy-to-use printed schedule and map information.
The keynote address, "Driving Excellence" will be delivered on Tuesday, Sept. 29, at 11 a.m. by Mark Aesch, CEO of TransPro, a management consultancy that guides transit systems.
The changes are aimed at improving bus operations and reducing congestion in the terminal that can stretch back out into the inbound Lincoln Tunnel and beyond.
The 8.3-mile route, with a proposed 27 stops, would replace the Capital Area Transportation Authority's current Route 1 from downtown Lansing to the Meridian Mall. Results from the plan's environmental assessment study are expected to be shared at a public hearing this fall.

1. Sonic Youth, "Santa Doesn't Cop Out on Dope"
Sonic Youth covered this Martin Mull track for the all-too-cool Christmas album Just Say Noël.
2. Harvey Danger, "Sometimes You Have to Work on Christmas (Sometimes)"
While Harvey Danger might be considered a one-hit wonder — who could forget their late '90s monster hit "Flagpole Sitta"? — they've actually recorded a lots of great music, and this Christmas song is no expectation.
3. Fiona Apple, "Frosty the Snowman"
Fiona is one of those rare artists who can take any song and turn it into something hauntingly beautiful, as her cover of "Pure Imagination" proved. But for this cover of "Frosty," she actually keeps it light and cheerful — and still perfectly her.
4. Blink-182, "I Won't Be Home for Christmas"
The pop-punk trio originally released this track as a radio-only single in 1997 and officially released it the following year as a B-side to their breakout hit single "Josie."
5. No Doubt, "Oi to the World"
No Doubt's cover of this Vandals' track first appeared as a B-side to their 1997 single "Happy Now?" It was also included on A Very Special Christmas 3 that same year.
6. Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "Xmas Time (It Sure Doesn't Feel Like It)"
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones wrote the perfect Christmas song for anyone who just can't get into the holiday spirit.
7. Save Ferris, "Christmas Wrapping"
Save Ferris took The Waitresses' classic New Wave Christmas song and — in a genius twist — rewrote it from a Jewish perspective.
8. Beck, "Little Drum Machine Boy"
Only Beck could have written the funkiest Hanukkah song of the '90s! He took the traditional — but boring — song "Little Drummer Boy" and dropped "some Hanukkah science" on it.
9. Pixies, "Winterlong"
OK, so this Neil Young cover isn't really a Christmas song, but the song works well for anyone going through their first post-breakup Christmas.
10. Travis, "River"
No song better captures the emotion of reflecting on a past relationship during the holidays than Joni Mitchell's "River."
This is the saddest Christmas song ever written, and Travis does a great job with this cover.
11. Smashing Pumpkins, "Christmastime"
So the Smashing Pumpkins might not be the first band you think of when you think Christmas music, but, their song "Christmastime" does an excellent job at capturing a sorta childhood innocence that we adults miss most about the holiday.

Southland dairy jobs lost in China rule change
Relevant offers
Sheep-milk business Blue River Dairy is laying off some staff as it struggles to secure its infant formula plans in China.
The Southland company produces foodstuffs such as cheese, ice cream and milk powder, with about 80 per cent of its sheep-milk powder exported.
Blue River Dairy products managing director Keith Neylon confirmed a "limited number" of redundancies at his Invercargill business that were the result of a change in regulations in exporting infant formula to China.
It is understood at least 10 people may have lost their jobs.
Neylon said the company had to stop sending its formula to China after that country's certification and accreditation administration cut the number of permitted imports of infant formula.
The strict new Chinese regulations came in on May 2, tightened up who could export infant formula to the country Neylon said.
He believed other New Zealand exporters, who have brands in the China market, would also experience difficulties.
While Blue Dairy had complied with the new rules, it was still waiting to be formally registered by the Chinese, he said.
"We ticked off everything but we are still waiting to be certified on the Chinese side," Neylon said.
"No date has come through for the past three months so we have had to park our infant formula operation."
The Ministry for Primary Industries was working with Blue River but there was no time line to get the approval needed.
"It could be two weeks, four months, we have no idea," Neylon said.
"It was bureaucratic administrative change and there is little we can do except wait. We are in a holding pattern going around in circles."
The redundancies come as the company is forced to revert to focusing on its powdered sheep milk products for the near future.
Neylon said the company had no choice as sacrifices had to be made to protect it.

Sub-investment grade corporate credit specialist Alcentra, part of BNY Mellon, has invested in CorpAcq plc, a South Manchester-based company committed to the acquisition and investment in strong asset backed, profitable and cash generative owner-managed enterprises.
Headquartered in Altrincham and founded in 2006, CorpAcq has grown its business to manage eight portfolio companies representing more than GBP70m in revenues in the year ending December 2012.
The warranted loan investment transaction was underwritten by Alcentra and co-arranged with private-debt fund Prefequity. Graeme Delaney-Smith (pictured) and Frédéric Méreau of the European direct lending and mezzanine investments team will represent Alcentra on the company's board of directors.
Delaney-Smith says: "Our investment will allow CorpAcq plc to pursue its strategy through new acquisitions and add-ons to its existing portfolio. The transaction is consistent with our investment strategy based on strong downside protection combined with the ability to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns through warrants. We will also consider follow-on funding. The deal follows investments in LM Funerals, Kedleston and Parabis and is another example of our commitment to a UK direct lending strategy."
Alcentra has been sourcing and arranging financing to middle market businesses since its launch in 2003.To date the company has invested over EUR1.7bn in 81 middle market transactions across senior debt, second lien, mezzanine and equity co-investments.

Adaptive model of DOM dynamics in the surface ocean
Abstract:The bulk of marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) forms a large, old, refractory carbon pool in the deep ocean, yet a small fraction in the surface ocean is actively involved in the global carbon cycle and may contribute significantly to the biological pump. We argue that present models of plankton and DOM in the surface ocean are incompatible with current knowledge of marine DOM dynamics. We present a plankton model with an adaptive formulation of bacteria-DOM interactions which is more consistent with observations. Our model reproduces net accumulation of DOM and is the first to reconcile the prevailing reports of net consumption of inorganic nitrogen by bacteria with commonly found DOC:DON ratios in the surface ocean.
Our model predicts that factors governing DOM production by phytoplankton and zooplankton have little influence on DOM accumulation in the surface ocean. Long-term accumulation, eventual export of DOM, and hence its contribution to the biological pump appear to be primarily controlled by characteristics of bacterial DOM utilization. The model implies a negative relation between temperature and DOM accumulation, which can be obscured, however, by the impact of temperature on water-column stability. On longer time scales, this negative relation could indicate a positive feedback between temperature and CO2. DOM can accumulate independently of inorganic nutrient content of the surface ocean. Therefore, the predicted positive feedback is potentially very strong and could help explain the large variations in atmospheric CO2 between glacial and interglacial periods.

Not to get Biblical on you, but the Arizona State Sun Devils -- Devils! -- are embracing their sinister side for their showdown Saturday against Notre Dame in Cowboys Stadium.
The Sun Devils will don black uniforms with helmets decorated with wild-looking flames -- hellfire? -- against the Fighting Irish, who will be wearing angelic white.
Of course, this isn't a battle of good and evil. It's just two teams embracing the marketplace ideology of branding in college football.
"We wanted to do something unique obviously to Arizona State, so the flames we thought were pretty cool and we put the flames on the back, we obviously want to use our brand," said Arizona State coach Todd Graham, who was involved in the design and noted that every helmet will be different.
The Sun Devils are, er, on fire after a blowout win over USC, while Notre Dame is coming off a loss to Oklahoma and is a disappointing 3-2 after going unbeaten and playing for the national title a season ago. If the Sun Devils can pull off the win and start 4-1 against a rugged early slate, they will enter the meat of the Pac-12 schedule with plenty of momentum and confidence.
Moreover, they can make history. No team has ever beaten USC and Notre Dame, two of the nation's most storied programs, back-to-back.
But while Graham is glad to talk about attention-grabbing uniforms and history, neither is his central focus. There have been two downers so far this year for Arizona State: (1) The first half at Stanford; (2) The Sun Devils' run defense, which ranks 11th in the conference, yielding 192 yards per game.
When asked about what the problems were against the run, Graham, not known for being laconic in any event, went on with a nearly 500-word answer during his Monday news conference. This story is just over 732 words.
"I am answering long because this is the number one thing that we have to do to win a championship," he said. "This has got to get better and I think it can. That is our number one focus."
Graham said that the chief problem was players getting out of position. He said there were 15 misalignments for the defense against the Trojans, who rushed for 247 yards on Saturday. He also said the biggest plays are coming on the perimeter, not up the middle. Part of the problem against USC was noseguard Jaxon Hood being out. He's questionable-to-doubtful for the Notre Dame game.
The good news for that run defense, however, is the Fighting Irish's struggles on offense. They rank 85th in the nation in scoring (25.4 points per game) and 93rd in rushing offense (135.5 yards per game).
But even the Irish's vaunted defense has been only mediocre. It has yielded 23.8 points and 364 yards per game, numbers that rank 46th and 53rd in the nation.
It's worth noting that both teams have played tough opponents, so the early-season statistics might be slightly skewed. But in the preseason, the Sun Devils looked like underdogs for this game. Now they are 5 1/2-point favorites.
This game also will be another test for the Sun Devils learning to play better on the road, most particularly QB Taylor Kelly. Though this game is technically being played at a neutral site, Irish fans will far outnumber the ASU loyalists. The Sun Devils are 3-4 on the road under Graham, and two of the 2012 road wins were over woeful California and Colorado. The lone quality road win was at rival Arizona last year.
Further, Kelly is a decidedly better QB at home. His rating this season is 156.6 at home and 121.3 on the road (at Stanford, perhaps the Pac-12's best defense). Last season, he was 198.7 at home and 127.6 on the road.
"You could probably take any quarterback and they would have the same stats," Graham said before adding, "If you want to win a championship you have got to win on the road."
Graham was quick to point out that the Pac-12 schedule has more importance for the Sun Devils. But he also knows that lining up opposite Notre Dame means you'll be performing in front of a lot of eyeballs.
Winning is the most important part of branding.
"Is it more important than the Pac-12 games? No, it is not," Graham said. "That is how we emphasize it to our players. But it is very important to our fan base, very important to our football program."

Sergei's School of Manliness- Teaser00:54
YOLO'ing on the Eastern Frontier A few months ago Keith Malloy invited myself, Chris Burkard, Foster Huntington, Trevor Gordon, Dane Gudauskas and Ben Weiland on a mission to find surf in Russia's far East. With rickety ex-military air and land transport our fearless guide Sergei lead us on a two-week romp through the wilderness. Because of him and our cook and translator Yelena, we pulled giant salmon out of rivermouths, work up to Grizzly tracks outside of our tents, gathered an assortment of arctic berries and shredded the clean beach breaks.

Deux North, a cycling brand started by James and Dylan Nord, brings you Hunt 3. The third in a series of ten trips around the world. These hunts brings a group of young, passionate people together in a new place to rediscover the things they love about cycling. Seeking to answer why we love riding our bike by creating experiences outside of comfort or familiarity. Deux North wanted to tell a different story about the things we love about cycling, but what they found was that the love was more powerful than any single experience and that their same passion exists everywhere. Hunt 3 brought five cyclists from their home in New York City, to the foothills of the Adirondacks Mountains. They set up camp outside of Boonville, New York. Washing in the river and cooking meals over the fire, they rode out of their primitive setting everyday to ride hundreds of miles of beautiful roads. When they weren't on the bike, the hunters visited the area's largest event of the year, the Woodsmen Field Days. They set to meeting a seemingly different lot, lumberjacks and lumberjills. In the stories of the lumberjacks, Deux North discovered they too were hunters. The same passion driving Deux North's cyclists to ride the most beautiful roads in the world, was behind every axe throw, chain saw, and log roll in Boonville, NY.+ More details

Smith no longer Arkansas' coach
Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long wasted little time in bringing the John L. Smith era to a close.
Long said in a statement released by the university Saturday that Smith will not return next season as the Razorbacks' coach. Long met with the interim coach a day after the Razorbacks' season-ending 20-13 loss to LSU and told him the school "would be making a change in leadership within our program."
The former Michigan State and Louisville coach was hired away from Weber State in April to replace the fired Bobby Petrino and signed to a 10-month contract. Long says that once a new coach is hired Smith will be reassigned as a consultant through the end of his deal on Feb. 23, 2013.
"I have great respect for coach Smith, and I thank him for the sincere commitment he has shown our program," Long said. "He made a difficult decision in uncertain times to return from his alma mater to guide the young men in our football program, and I will always be grateful for his efforts."
Arkansas (4-8, 2-6 Southeastern Conference) began the season ranked in the top 10, openly discussing the possibility of winning an SEC and national championship, but quickly fell out of the polls after a stunning loss to Louisiana-Monroe on Sept. 8. The Razorbacks were 21-5 the last two seasons under Petrino, but their injury-depleted roster was unable to recapture that magic under Smith.
Last week's loss at Mississippi State ensured Arkansas would not return to a bowl game this season for the first time since 2008, Petrino's first season as coach. The Razorbacks stayed close with the No. 8 Tigers in their season finale on Friday before losing – finishing with the school's lowest win total since 2005.
"It's very difficult for me to believe that is not a bowl-eligible football team," LSU coach Les Miles said following the win over Arkansas. "Watching the talent there, (it's) very capable."
Long said last month that Smith was still a candidate to remain with the Razorbacks, even after an early four-game losing streak crushed the Razorbacks' preseason championship hopes. Long added that it would be apparent at the end of the season whether Smith was his choice, a question he answered Saturday.
Gophers coach Kill has halftime seizure
Minnesota coach Jerry Kill had another seizure, keeping him off the sideline for the second half against Michigan State in Minneapolis.
Kill's latest episode occurred in the locker room at halftime as the team was returning to the field, the third such game-day occurrence in his second season at the school. This time, he didn't need to be hospitalized, however.
Kill had a seizure near the end of a loss to New Mexico State last season and was away from the team for several days while doctors tried to bring his condition under better control. This year, he was sent to the hospital for observation after the Gophers were beaten by Northwestern on Oct. 13.
After Minnesota fell 26-10 to Michigan State, athletic director Norwood Teague said Kill was comfortable and all of his vital signs were fine. Kill was cleared to go home after resting for a few hours.
