= Realtime UK Rail Map!
Remember Dartmaps, the realtime Dublin commuter mashup that plots the real-time locations of trains on a Google Map? A similar Google Maps mashup has been created for trains in the UK National Rail Network: Live UK Rail Map
The map, created by Matthew Somerville shows all trains which are currently inbound to a particular station. Yellow pins mark station stops and red pins indicate trains in motion. Zoom in close to see them chugging along the tracks and an info-window will tell you the departing and destination stations along with the time if left. Google Maps is being mashed up with real time data from the National Rail website. Those who are just tuning into Google Maps Mania for the first time might not know I get very excited about Google Maps mashups that map real time objects or vehicles. I think it can mean great user applications in the area of transit, sport and even public safety! Now to turn these applications into something that could be viewed on Google Maps for Mobile!
More UK Google Maps mashups can be found here... here.. and here! :)

Lefty misses record but leads by fourBy JOHN NICHOLSON
The Associated Press | February 02,2013SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Phil Mickelson birdied the ninth hole a day too late and missed a chance to break the PGA Tours 36-hole scoring record when he finished with a double bogey after driving into the water.
Mickelson followed his opening 60 with a 65 on Friday in the Phoenix Open to reach 17-under 125, a stroke off the tour record for the first two rounds of a tournament set by Pat Perez in the 2009 Bob Hope Classic and matched by David Toms at Colonial in 2011.
Unfortunately, I made a double on the last hole and didnt finish the way I wanted to, Mickelson said. But I think its a good example of what can happen on this course. You can make a lot of birdies and eagles, make up a lot of ground, but theres a lot of water and trouble there that if you misstep you can easily make bogeys and double.
He still tied the Phoenix Open record set by Mark Calcavecchia in 2001, but history slipped through his hands for the second straight day on the last hole.
On Thursday, Mickelson had a 25-foot birdie putt for a 59 on No. 9 that caught the right edge, curled 180 degrees and stayed out. A day later with little at stake on the par-4 hole, he hit to 4 feet and rolled the downhill putt into the center of the cup.
You always remember kind of the last hole, the last putt, Mickelson said. But I think its very possible thats going to help me because its got me refocused, that I cannot ease up on a single shot. Ive got to be really focused. These guys are going to make a lot of birdies and Ive got to get after it and cannot make those kinds of mistakes.
Mickelson parred the first six holes, and played the next 11 in 8 under before making a mess of the par-4 18th. His drive bounced into the left-side water hazard and, after a penalty drop, he hit an approach that landed on the green and rolled off the front edge. His chip ran 7 feet past and his bogey putt slid by to the left.
I hit a good shot, I thought, Mickelson said. I tried to start it right down the middle and hold it into the wind. It just leaked a little bit left. I still thought it was up. ... Then I hit a poor wedge from there. But the tee shot I didnt think was going to be in the water at any point.
The double bogey left him four strokes ahead of Bill Haas and five in front of Keegan Bradley and Brandt Snedeker. Haas shot 64, Bradley 63, and Snedeker 66.
Mickelson will play alongside Haas and Bradley in the third round.
Bill and I have played on a Presidents Cup team, and Keegan and I have been partners in the Ryder Cup and had an incredibly emotional and fun experience together as partners, Mickelson said. Were going to have a fun day tomorrow.
Mickelson was cruising before the lapse on 18.
The 42-year-old former Arizona State star, who won at TPC Scottsdale in 1996 and 2005, overpowered the par-5 15th for an eagle, hitting to 4 feet after a 358-yard drive.
I felt really comfortable on the tee box, so I kind of let one go and caught a hold of it and ended up having 191 to the pin, Mickelson said. It was only 186 to the front, and I hit a hard 8-iron. There was a little bit of helping wind.
After a par on the par-3 16th that drew boos from the rowdy fans on the stadium hole when his tee shot trickled into the fringe, he drove the green on the 344-yard 17th and two-putted from 70 feet leaving his eagle try a foot short for birdie.
Bradley also eagled the 15th, hitting a 350-yard drive and a 7-iron approach to 8 feet.
I just smashed a driver down there, Bradley said. I had been hitting 3-wood and Im driving the ball so well that I just decided to rip driver down there.
He birdied the 16th, hitting to 5 feet.
It reminds me of when I go to Fenway Park, Bradley said. Theres always like a murmur. ... Its really cool. I dig it. I wish there was more holes like that out here.
He birdied Nos. 5-8 on his back nine, holing putts of 10 15, 20 and 8 feet.
It was such a relief to shoot a good number, Bradley said. Ive been playing so well this whole year and havent made many putts. Today, the putts started to go in.
Haas also began play on No. 10 and made the turn at 6-under 30.
We all know the way the course is playing, if theres no wind on the weekend, youve just got to keep making birdies, Haas said.
Last year in the Northern Trust Open at Riviera, Haas beat Mickelson and Bradley with a 45-foot birdie putt on the second hole of a playoff.
Its just another day. Its moving day, Haas said. Hopefully, I can move up the leaderboard and he (Mickelson) doesnt go too crazy.
DIVOTS: Jason Dufner, paired with Mickelson and Rickie Fowler, missed the cut by a stroke, ending the tours longest active streak at 22. Dufner shot 68-71, leaving Ian Poulter with the longest current streak at 16. Fowler also shot 68-71 to drop out. ... Mike Weir failed to advance a week after ending a streak of 17 missed cuts that dated to July 2001. He shot 69-73. ... Golf Channel will have spotlight coverage of the 15th, 16th and 17th holes Saturday and Sunday, opposite the first two hours of NBCs regular broadcast. The sister networks will stagger commercial breaks. ... Masters champion Bubba Watson was 8 under after his second straight 67. He played through strep throat to tie for fourth in the season-opening Tournament of Champions and withdrew last week in San Diego because of the flu. ... Defending champion Kyle Stanley made the cut by a stroke at 4 under.MORE IN Wire SportsFLORHAM PARK, N.J. Calvin Pace cant stand training camp.

- Matt Yglesias is at the height of his considerable powers when it comes to the conflict, and has really shined lately. See this post for a good example. I really believe liberals online need to do a better job of making the case for our values, and I think Yglesias writes about the conflict in just that spirit.
- I will echo Andrew Sullivan in saying that Jeff Goldberg, whatever my reservations about how he defines the conflict or his history, has been on fire.
- This from Jon Chait is characteristically well-expressed and (in foreign policy discussion at least) uncharacteristically sober and fair.
- Natasha Lennard offers a good rundown of some of the nutty reaction to Obama's invoking the (absolutely banal) use of the 1967 borders as guidelines for a two state solution.
But I believe there is genuine opportunity here. If the United States, given its unique relationship with Israel, bears a moral responsibility to help to ease the suffering of the Palestinians and restore lost legitimacy to the Jewish state, then that responsibility is shared by the members of the American democratic polity. And as much of an idealist as I am, and as much as I hate compromise, this is a situation where the status quo is simply untenable. To abandon this opportunity for peace because we dislike some of the actors involved would be disgraceful.

It took them three days, but the Lady Swamp Foxes earned a 4-0 win over Summerville.
The crosstown rivals met in The Swamp Friday and the game moved slowly under overcast conditions. Ashley Ridge got a goal from Sara Goodwin to go up 1-0 and that lead held until the bottom fell out of the sky with 48 seconds remaining in the first half causing the rest of the game to be postponed.
Play resumed on Monday and after an uneventful 48 seconds and a short halftime break, Ashley Ridge picked up the pace and limited Summerville's scoring opportunities in the second half.
"If we play like we did in the second half tonight the rest of the season we should be fine," Ashley Ridge coach Mark Weaver said. "Right now we are playing with composure and confidence so if we keep it up we should be fun to watch and we should have some success."
The win left the Swamp Foxes (10-3, 7-0 in Region 8-AAAA) needing only one win in its final three region games to clinch the region championship and the top playoff seeding that accompanies the title. Summerville (4-8, 1-6) was left with its back against the wall, but not mathematically out of playoff contention.
Ashley Ridge was awarded a corner kick seven minutes into the second half and took advantage to cushion its lead. Senior Marin McDonough sent the kick in and sophomore Jaimy Farmer headed it in for the score.
With just more than 18 minutes remaining in the game, freshman Madyson Reed won a ball in front of the net, slide right and landed a shot for a 3-0 Swamp Fox lead.
The final goal came with just less than nine minutes remaining. Sophomore Amelia Clower passed to McDonough and she hit the shot.
Allyson Manns had the shutout in goal.
Ashley Ridge faced Colleton County (10-4, 4-4) Tuesday after press time. The Swamp Foxes will close their region schedule by hosting Bluffton (2-13, 1-6) Friday and traveling to Fort Dorchester (7-6, 5-3) April 30.
Summerville took on Fort Dorchester after press time and will close its region schedule by hosting Beaufort (5-7, 4-3) April 30 and Bluffton May 3.

Wando rugby upset nationally-ranked No. 17 Greenville, 12-5, Friday in Columbia.
Wando broke inside the Greenville 22-meter line early in the match with a 30-meter driving maul directed by Ryan Springer and Davis Strobel. Springer then set up Kyle Harbin for the score from the corner to take a 5-0 lead.
Greenville threatened later in the half with a deep kick inside the Wando 22-meter line that Andrew Mulvaney ran down and narrowly cleared to prevent the tying try.
Springer added a late try on the last play of the half set up by a chip kick from Harbin after Strobel robbed a Greenville scrum with a steal on their own 22. Springer converted the kick to send Wando into halftime, leading 12-0.
Greenville broke the shutout midway through the second half with a corner score off two quick taps after two Wando penalties.
Wando sealed the match, down two players, as Austin Clark was tackled inside the Greenville 5-meter line. The Warriors were awarded a scrum, which they won to end the match. Daniel Runck was awarded Man of the Match for his scrumming and play in the rucks.
Wando B-team suffered a 15-7 loss to Greenville Friday.
The Warriors dominated the pace of the first half, hammering the ball in Greenvilles end, but missed on several opportunities to score.
Greenville jumped on top, 12-0, in the second half with corner score off a 70-meter breakaway, followed by a second just minutes later.
Wando fought back with a Michael Swift score off of a penalty, but Greenville answered late with their own late penalty kick.
Robert Gardner was awarded Man of the Match for his big night full of taxis and hammers.
Wando returns to the pitch March 7 in the Charlotte Ruggerfest Tournament.

Suns promise refund if fans not happy vs. Mavericks
The Phoenix Suns are going out on a limb, offering fans a refund if they don't enjoy next Thursday's home game against the Dallas Mavericks.
"The league office has told us that this is the first time any team in the NBA has done a satisfaction guaranteed night," said Suns president Jason Rowley.
ESPN Sports business analyst Darren Rovell told radio hosts Mike & Mike on Friday morning on Arizona Sports 620, "If you don't go home happy, they will give you your money back. No questions asked. You go to the game, you pay for the ticket, you're not happy, you get your money back."
The Suns are 7-9 in fourth place in the Pacific Division and are coming off the third-worst loss in franchise history, 117-77, to the Detroit Pistons.
Their average ticket price is $70.
Rowley added the enjoyment factors include how fans like the concessions to how they're treated by the parking attendant.
"They're not doing anything crazy -- they're saying we don't have a whole bunch of stars, we don't have a whole bunch of names, but we think we have good entertainment," Rovell said. "[The Suns] think we provide you with a great night. So if you're not happy with it, you will get your money back."
Tipoff for Satisfaction Guaranteed Night is 8:30 p.m. TNT is carrying the game.

After two hours of holding on for dear life a hiker is alive thanks to
However, when heavy rescue crews arrived they were faced with limited places to anchor and had to go above the hiker and lower down."I then was able to secure him to our rope systems and was able to lower him down to a platform where we could actually walk him out to another system out to the side," says John Knowlton a Heavy Rescue Firefighter for
Bottom line, Knowlton says he wouldn't recommend anyone go hiking in this area. "I could barely stand up there. I was waiting on my rope most of the time because the rocks would just slip away," says Knowlton. Fortunately for the hiker he was able to walk away uninjured. Rescue crews also want to remind the public that if you do go hiking know the terrain that you're hiking in and avoid starting your hike at night.

In a series of Tweets over the weekend, the former American Idol finalist slammed this Christmas blockbuster, most notably for its decision to have cast members sing live on camera.
Complaining that Hollywood's treats the singing as a "last priority" in musicals, Lambert lamented:
"I do think it was cool they were singing live- but with that cast, they should have studio recorded and sweetened the vocals. I felt like I should ignore the vocals and focus on the emotional subtext- but the singing was so distracting at times it pulled me out."
Russell Crowe has been singled out by most for his terrible portrayal of Inspector Javert, but most believe Anne Hathaway will win an Academy Award for her role in the film.
"The industry will say 'these actors were so brave to attempt singing this score live' but why not cast actors who could actually sound good?" Lambert continued, concluding with a non-apology:
"Sorry for being so harsh, but it's so True!"

- Parkinson phenotype in aged PINK1-deficient mice is accompanied by progressive mitochondrial dysfunction in absence of neurodegeneration (2009)
- Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is an adult-onset movement disorder of largely unknown etiology. We have previously shown that loss-of-function mutations of the mitochondrial protein kinase PINK1 (PTEN induced putative kinase 1) cause the recessive PARK6 variant of PD. Methodology/Principal Findings Now we generated a PINK1 deficient mouse and observed several novel phenotypes: A progressive reduction of weight and of locomotor activity selectively for spontaneous movements occurred at old age. As in PD, abnormal dopamine levels in the aged nigrostriatal projection accompanied the reduced movements. Possibly in line with the PARK6 syndrome but in contrast to sporadic PD, a reduced lifespan, dysfunction of brainstem and sympathetic nerves, visible aggregates of alpha-synuclein within Lewy bodies or nigrostriatal neurodegeneration were not present in aged PINK1-deficient mice. However, we demonstrate PINK1 mutant mice to exhibit a progressive reduction in mitochondrial preprotein import correlating with defects of core mitochondrial functions like ATP-generation and respiration. In contrast to the strong effect of PINK1 on mitochondrial dynamics in Drosophila melanogaster and in spite of reduced expression of fission factor Mtp18, we show reduced fission and increased aggregation of mitochondria only under stress in PINK1-deficient mouse neurons. Conclusion Thus, aging Pink1 -/- mice show increasing mitochondrial dysfunction resulting in impaired neural activity similar to PD, in absence of overt neuronal death.
- Alpha-synuclein deficiency leads to increased glyoxalase I expression and glycation stress (2010)
- The presynaptic protein alpha-synuclein has received much attention because its gain-of-function is associated with Parkinson's disease. However, its physiological function is still poorly understood. We studied brain regions of knock-out mice at different ages with regard to consistent upregulations of the transcriptome and focused on glyoxalase I (GLO1). The microarray data were confirmed in qPCR, immunoblot, enzyme activity, and behavior analyses. GLO1 induction is a known protective cellular response to glucose stress, representing efforts to decrease toxic levels of methylglyoxal (MG), glyoxal and advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). Mass spectrometry quantification demonstrated a ubiquitous increase in MG and fructosyl-lysine as consequences of glucose toxicity, and consistent enhancement of certain AGEs. Thus, GLO1 induction in KO brain seems insufficient to prevent AGE formation. In conclusion, the data demonstrate GLO1 expression and glycation damage to be induced by alpha-synuclein ablation. We propose that wild-type alpha-synuclein modulates brain glucose metabolism.
- A53T-alpha-synuclein overexpression impairs dopamine signaling and striatal synaptic plasticity in old mice (2010)
- BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most frequent neurodegenerative disorder at old age, can be caused by elevated expression or the A53T missense mutation of the presynaptic protein alpha-synuclein (SNCA). PD is characterized pathologically by the preferential vulnerability of the dopaminergic nigrostriatal projection neurons. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here, we used two mouse lines overexpressing human A53T-SNCA and studied striatal dysfunction in the absence of neurodegeneration to understand early disease mechanisms. To characterize the progression, we employed young adult as well as old mice. Analysis of striatal neurotransmitter content demonstrated that dopamine (DA) levels correlated directly with the level of expression of SNCA, an observation also made in SNCA-deficient (knockout, KO) mice. However, the elevated DA levels in the striatum of old A53T-SNCA overexpressing mice may not be transmitted appropriately, in view of three observations. First, a transcriptional downregulation of the extraneural DA degradation enzyme catechol-ortho-methytransferase (COMT) was found. Second, an upregulation of DA receptors was detected by immunoblots and autoradiography. Third, extensive transcriptome studies via microarrays and quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qPCR) of altered transcript levels of the DA-inducible genes Atf2, Cb1, Freq, Homer1 and Pde7b indicated a progressive and genotype-dependent reduction in the postsynaptic DA response. As a functional consequence, long term depression (LTD) was absent in corticostriatal slices from old transgenic mice. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Taken together, the dysfunctional neurotransmission and impaired synaptic plasticity seen in the A53T-SNCA overexpressing mice reflect early changes within the basal ganglia prior to frank neurodegeneration. As a model of preclinical stages of PD, such insights may help to develop neuroprotective therapeutic approaches.
- A53T-alpha-synuclein-overexpression in the mouse nigrostriatal pathway leads to early increase of 14-3-3 epsilon and late increase of GFAP (2011)
- Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder frequent at old age characterized by atrophy of the nigrostriatal projection. Overexpression and A53T-mutation of the presynaptic, vesicle-associated chaperone alpha-synuclein are known to cause early-onset autosomal dominant PD. We previously generated mice with transgenic overexpression of human A53T-alpha-synuclein (A53T-SNCA) in dopaminergic substantia nigra neurons as a model of early PD. To elucidate the early and late effects of A53T-alpha-synuclein on the proteome of dopaminergic nerve terminals in the striatum, we now investigated expression profiles of young and old mice using two-dimensional fluorescence difference in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and mass spectrometry. In total, 15 proteins were upregulated and 2 downregulated. Mice before the onset of motor anomalies showed an upregulation of the spot containing 14-3-3 proteins, in particular the epsilon isoform, as well as altered levels of chaperones, vesicle trafficking and bioenergetics proteins. In old mice, the persistent upregulation of 14-3-3 proteins was aggravated by an increase of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) suggesting astrogliosis due to initial neurodegeneration. Independent immunoblots corroborated GFAP upregulation and 14-3-3 upregulation for the epsilon isoform, and also detected significant eta and gamma changes. Only for 14-3-3 epsilon a corresponding mRNA increase was observed in midbrain, suggesting it is transcribed in dopaminergic perikarya and accumulates as protein in presynapses, together with A53T-SNCA. 14-3-3 proteins associate with alpha-synuclein in vitro and in pathognomonic Lewy bodies of PD brains. They act as chaperones in signaling, dopamine synthesis and stress response. Thus, their early dysregulation probably reflects a response to alpha-synuclein toxicity.

- The mitochondrial genome of the venomous cone snail conus consors (2012)
- Cone snails are venomous predatory marine neogastropods that belong to the species-rich superfamily of the Conoidea. So far, the mitochondrial genomes of two cone snail species (Conus textile and Conus borgesi) have been described, and these feed on snails and worms, respectively. Here, we report the mitochondrial genome sequence of the fish-hunting cone snail Conus consors and describe a novel putative control region (CR) which seems to be absent in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of other cone snail species. This possible CR spans about 700 base pairs (bp) and is located between the genes encoding the transfer RNA for phenylalanine (tRNA-Phe, trnF) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit III (cox3). The novel putative CR contains several sequence motifs that suggest a role in mitochondrial replication and transcription.
- Venomous secretions from marine snails of the Terebridae family target acetylcholine receptors (2013)
- Venoms from cone snails (Conidae) have been extensively studied during the last decades, but those from other members of the suborder Toxoglossa, such as of Terebridae and Turridae superfamilies attracted less interest so far. Here, we report the effects of venom and gland extracts from three species of the superfamily Terebridae. By 2-electrode voltage-clamp technique the gland extracts were tested on Xenopus oocytes expressing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) of rat neuronal (α3β2, α3β4, α4β2, α4β4, α7) and muscle subtypes (α1β1γδ), and expressing potassium (Kv1.2 and Kv1.3) and sodium channels (Nav1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.6). The extracts were shown to exhibit remarkably high inhibitory activities on almost all nAChRs tested, in particular on the α7 subtype suggesting the presence of peptides of the A-superfamily from the venom of Conus species. In contrast, no effects on the potassium and sodium channels tested were observed. The venoms of terebrid snails may offer an additional source of novel biologically active peptides.
- Memory Concerns, Memory Performance and Risk of Dementia in Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (2014)
- Background: Concerns about worsening memory ("memory concerns"; MC) and impairment in memory performance are both predictors of Alzheimer's dementia (AD). The relationship of both in dementia prediction at the pre-dementia disease stage, however, is not well explored. Refined understanding of the contribution of both MC and memory performance in dementia prediction is crucial for defining at-risk populations. We examined the risk of incident AD by MC and memory performance in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods: We analyzed data of 417 MCI patients from a longitudinal multicenter observational study. Patients were classified based on presence (n = 305) vs. absence (n = 112) of MC. Risk of incident AD was estimated with Cox Proportional-Hazards regression models. Results: Risk of incident AD was increased by MC (HR = 2.55, 95%CI: 1.33–4.89), lower memory performance (HR = 0.63, 95%CI: 0.56–0.71) and ApoE4-genotype (HR = 1.89, 95%CI: 1.18–3.02). An interaction effect between MC and memory performance was observed. The predictive power of MC was greatest for patients with very mild memory impairment and decreased with increasing memory impairment. Conclusions: Our data suggest that the power of MC as a predictor of future dementia at the MCI stage varies with the patients' level of cognitive impairment. While MC are predictive at early stage MCI, their predictive value at more advanced stages of MCI is reduced. This suggests that loss of insight related to AD may occur at the late stage of MCI.

Dozens of locals descended upon the parking lot outside of Save-a-Lot on York Street Monday to make use of the government's cell phones free cell phone program.
The phones, often referred to colloquially as "Obama phones," are provided through the Lifeline program, which was established in 1985 to provide low-income people with telephone service.
In 1996, the Universal Service Fund was created to subsidize the program; and, last year, the FCC created a national database to verify Lifeline eligibility for customers.
"These are basic handsets," said Paul Donsky, the media contact for Life Wireless, a company that provides the mobile-phone service through Lifeline. "They're not smartphones, and the minutes are limited to 250 a month, which works out to about an hour a week. They're intended primarily to be used for emergencies and other basic communication needs."
Keisha Williams of Aiken was one of the local residents who lined up to receive a phone Monday. She said she has several friends who have used Lifeline and described the process of getting a free phone as an easy one.
"It's activated, they give it to you in a bag, and you walk away," she said.
Desi Nash, another Aiken resident, said the tent set up outside Save-a-Lot had been open since Friday.
"Pop-up stores" like the one found on York Street are intended to bring awareness to the Lifeline program, Donsky said.
Research has shown that many low-income people do not realize that Lifeline's services are available to them, he said.
Eligibility requirements for prospective Lifeline subscribers vary by state, but according to a Life Wireless document, those with a household income up to 135 percent of the federal poverty level or receiving government assistance from a select list of programs are eligible for service.
The phones are limited to one per household, Donsky said.
Lifeline has been met with plenty of opposition from Republican leaders, such as Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who said in December that the program, which cost the government $1.6 billion in 2011, is contributing, in part, to the country's financial troubles.
But others, like Nash, said Lifeline meets vital needs for underprivileged employment-seekers.
"For people that need a little bit of assistance, it's a real good thing," he said.

"No, not at all," Jones County coach Barry Veal said after his team lost its final two subregion games last week to fall from second to third in the standings, then lost the lead in the late innings to fall to West Laurens 8-4 in a non-region game at home on Monday to finish the regular season at 11-10.
The Greyhounds wound up with a 4-5 record in the subregion after losing on the road to Northside-Warner Robins 7-3 last Tuesday and to Houston County 8-0 on Thursday.
Now they must win two of three at Evans, the second seed in the east subregion, in the opening round of the Region 2-AAAAA playoffs to keep their season going.
They begin with a double-header at 4 p.m. on Thursday, and the third game if needed will be at 6 p.m. Friday.
Other first-round matchups are Warner Robins at Greenbrier, Grovetown at Houston County, and Lakeside-Evans at Northside-Warner Robins.
The first round winners, who all qualify for the state playoffs, will advance to the region semifinals on April 23. That will be a single game with the opponents determined by seeding of the teams remaining in the tournament. The semifinal winners meet for the region championship in a single game on April 26.

The state of Vermont sent a clear message to Moretown Landfill last month when it notified the landfill of its intent to deny the landfill's request to recertify Cells 2 and 3.
Permitting efforts for Cell 4 are on hold at both the state and local level.
The future of the landfill is important to the town of Moretown, which receives $500,000 in tipping fees and reduces property taxes for all residents from those fees.
The future of the landfill is also important to those who live near it and are upset about ongoing problems with odors from the parcel. And while neighbors and a citizens group, Citizens for Landfill Accountability and Environmental Responsibility (CLEAR), are regarding the state's December 20 notice as a definitive victory, it's more complicated than that.
If the landfill cannot create a fourth cell there will be a ripple effect through Central Vermont that will impact far more people than those who live in Moretown and those who live near the landfill.
Everyone whose garbage is currently hauled to the landfill from their home or business is likely to see their rates rise as haulers begin to take the trash further and further afield, burning countless gallons of gasoline and diesel fuel, contributing to the state's pollution and the degradation of everyone's carbon footprint.
All those who rent homes and offices are likely to see their rents rise when their landlords are faced with rising waste disposal costs.
The Massachusetts-based Toxics Action Center, which has its sights set on the landfill, suggested that the state deny the proposed expansion and "instead move towards a model of zero waste."
That's a noble ideal and one towards which Vermont has made tremendous progress since the state passed Act 78, but it's not an ideal that is realistic for where the state is right now.
The solution lies in balancing the rights of those who live near and around the landfill with the many thousands upon thousands of people whose lives, financial and otherwise, will be impacted by a complete closure.

Man, it must really suck to be Pat Healy right about now coming off the NC due to the failed drug test, you gotta think that'd have been his shot with the win over Miller otherwise.
Personally, I think dos Anjos probably deserves the shot more and is the bigger challenge because with Thomson, you always hear about the overtraining and constant injuries that drag him down and his overall inconsistency to maintain top levels of performance, but I get them going with the hot hand in Thomson with the Diaz win in everybody's mind.
Still, jeez I'm not a big fan of Thomson, with one straight win getting the title shot. I know they want to fast-track this fight for the FOX card, but I'd almost wish they waited until Healy/Khabib this Saturday to announce the next contender, as the winner of that would have had a helluva better run than Thomson has.
Hell, I'd have been hard pressed not to pull Melendez from the Diego fight and plug him in there against Pettis, even coming off a loss. I really don't see Thomson as having much of a shot and think that while they were limited in their choices, there were better alternatives, dos Anjos or winner of Khabib/Healy being at the top of the list....
Eddie Alvarez should be getting the shot.
UFC on FOX 9 title challenger Josh Thomson: I haven't won anything yet
"Everyone's calling me and congratulating me," the 34-year-old UFC lightweight told MMAjunkie.com of a surprise title shot later this year at UFC on FOX 9. "I haven't won s--t yet. Until I win this fight, it doesn't feel like anything special right now."
Except that it already kind of does. Tuesday morning, Thomson (20-5 MMA, 3-1 UFC) said he was up at 5:30 a.m. and had run, showered, eaten and contemplated how to beat lightweight champion Anthony Pettis (17-2 MMA, 4-1 UFC) before he walked into his longtime gym at American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Calif.
There, he mapped out a few different scenarios with coaches about a myriad of situations he might face with the unpredictable fighter, sketched out a game plan, shot some videos for the UFC, and probably prepared a few sound bites for a two-hour block of interviews Tuesday night.
Yep, nothing out of the ordinary.
UFC on FOX 9 takes place Dec. 14 at Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento, Calif. Pettis vs. Thomson headlines the FOX-televised main card following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and Facebook.
Since announcing himself as a future contender by knocking out Nate Diaz with a spectacular head kick at UFC on FOX 7, Thomson has directed much of his energy at calling for fights against top contenders, including Pettis, who was briefly marooned between featherweight and lightweight following a knee injury.
Now, Benson Henderson is no longer the 155-pound champion of the world. Pettis is, and the person with the first guaranteed shot at him, T.J. Grant, is still benched following a concussion he suffered in training.
In a matter of moments, Thomson went from a top prospect to a title contender, which is a step he wasn't able to make in 2004, when the UFC's lightweight division was shuttered and he was forced to look elsewhere for work.
"I never thought this would happen, to be honest," Thomson said. "There was a lot of talk of me fighting (Rafael) dos Anjos. When I called and said I would really like to fight in Sacramento (at UFC on FOX 9), there was talk of, 'We'll see what's going on with dos Anjos. We'll call you back.' And that call back was, 'Hey, do you want to fight Pettis?'
"You can't say no to that."
And, of course, he didn't. But now that people know his answer, his phone won't stop buzzing.
"It hasn't sunk in," Thomson said. "I have to do a lot. This isn't going to be a rollover fight. I need to take that title from a very game and a very good Anthony Pettis."
You won't get a very specific answer from Thomson about his hastily assembled plan to take the belt from the newly crowned champion, who put his versatility on display when he submitted Henderson with a first-round armbar at this past month's UFC 164 event. At the same time, "The Punk" said he isn't doing anything much different from previous tough challenges.
So in that way, his title fight is nothing special.
"My solution has been the same for every opponent," Thomson said. "I've got to work him on the feet. I've got to be in and out of the pocket, take him down, out-grapple him, touch him with my hands, and touch him with my feet. I've got to mix it up and keep him guessing at all times. It's been that way my whole career. I can't just fixate on one thing.
"You get fixated on one thing with him, he's going to beat you. [Pettis] is going to stay calm and relaxed like he did with Benson, never wilting under the pressure, and I've got to stay the same. Just use my experience to my advantage, and take the fight to him."
Thomson takes this, 2nd rnd tko.
I said it.

Time Inc. 'restructuring' begins: 500 axed
Time Inc. has started its long-anticipated "restructuring" of staff and will eliminate an estimated 500 jobs today, or roughly 6 percent of its workforce.
"Time Inc. is undertaking a companywide restructuring," Time Magazine managing editor Rick Stengel wrote in a memo to staff today. "As part of this cost-savings initiative, we need to make some cuts in our editorial staff."
The cuts, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, will take place across Time Inc. Time Magazine is asking only six staffers to take voluntary buyouts, and will go to "involuntary layoffs" if it cannot secure those by Feb. 13.

Natai : Awning & Canvas
For home owners and businesses in Phuket awnings are a great way to reduce heat and sun exposure which can be damaging.
Several companies in Phuket provide a number of awning and canvas canopies that can be custom made for homes and shops or restaurants. There are all sorts of styles available and can either be retractable or fixed.
Awnings provide shade that leads to cooler temperatures and also protects furniture and goods from UV rays that can cause furniture to fade.
Many home owners in Phuket install awnings over verandas and patios which create a relaxing and shaded environment.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
When Is Real Housewives of Beverly Hills On?
It's the beginning of another week, and there can only be one question on your mind: When is the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills on so I can guiltlessly drink wine and yell at my television like a real human being?
Get your fill of catfights and misguided moments of wisdom when RHoBH airs on Monday nights at 8pm EST on Bravo! (Note: This has been changed from its original air time of 9pm.)
So far this season, we've already had major blowouts between Brandi Glanville and Adrienne Maloof over rumors that Adrienne used a surrogate for her three children, and new additions Yolanda Foster and Marisa Zanuck have wormed their way into our housewives-loving hearts. In upcoming episodes, the ladies are back in Beverly Hills, with no shortage of drama to go around!
Adrienne Maloof is planning a huge party for the launch of her new vodka line, Zing Vodka. Tensions are running high between her and Paul Nassif, who can't seem to impress his wife, even when he dresses up like a tree to make her happy.
Ironically in the same episode, friends gather to celebrate Lisa Vanderpump and Ken Todd 30th wedding anniversary with an extravagant vow renewal/housewarming soiree.
Despite the happy occasion, trouble starts to brew as Brandi Glanville confronts Marisa Zanuck about gossiping behind Brandi's back. Later, Brandi gets into it with Faye Resnick, who accuses the former model of helping to break up Adrienne and Paul's marriage.
What do you think of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 3 so far, and are you hoping everyone returns for Season 4?

Aiken County Council will consider changes to how County money is used to buy everything from office supplies to large-scale items such as cars and furniture during Today's meeting.
The proposed adjustments would alter the way the County's procurement office operates, especially when it comes to competitive bidding, according to Aiken County Administrator Clay Killian.
The ordinance would change the way items are bought by aiming to make the process more efficient, while still following local, state and federal regulations, he said.
He added that the County's procurement code hasn't been comprehensively changed or updated in more than two decades.
One of the key aspects of the proposal, he noted, is the change in the lowest value needed to go through the sealed bid procedure.
The County must currently take part in a sealed bid process if it wants to procure an item costing more than $10,000. The proposed changes would increase that value to $50,000.
"That process is very cumbersome for vendors. Sometimes, we don't get a lot of people to participate because it is so hard to do a sealed bid," Killian said.
He also indicated that most large-scale items that the County needs cost more than the $10,000 threshold.
"With the price of things being a lot different from they were 20 years ago, the current process kind of slows everything down," he said.
According to Aiken County Purchasing Manager Debbie Pearson, if an item or service costs more than $10,000, the County must advertise it and offer a specific response period, while companies must send in bids in sealed, time-stamped envelopes.
"The rule is that you're supposed to award it to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder," Pearson said. "It's not just the lowest bidder, you have to actually have the capability to do the work."
Currently, the County has a number of open bids on its website, including one to supply and install furniture at the new Aiken County Government Center, located on University Parkway.
In other business, Council will consider third reading of an ordinance authorizing a fee-in-lieu of taxes agreement with Recleim, a company establishing an appliance and e-waste recycling center in Graniteville.

The Occupational Therapy Program at San Jose State University (SJSU) was founded in 1943 as one of the first occupational therapy programs in the West. Our national reputation for excellence is based on a superior academic curriculum, distinguished faculty, and accomplished graduates.
The Occupational Therapy Program at San José State University is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education [ACOTE - c/o Accreditation Department, American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) 4720 Montgomery Lane, Suite 200, Bethesda, MD 20814-3425; phone 301-652-2682]. It is the oldest accredited Occupational Therapy program in the California State University system.
Curriculum Core
Participation in meaningful occupation to promote health, well-being, and social inclusion across the lifespan.
Our Mission
The Occupational Therapy Department at San Jose State University is dedicated to preparing culturally diverse occupational therapy leaders who promote health and participation in life for individuals, organizations, and populations through engagement in occupation.
Our Vision
Our vision for the occupational therapy department at SJSU is to have a departmental culture that preserves our legacy of excellence in teaching and clinical expertise through innovation and creativity. The department will be actively engaged in local, national, and international initiatives. The department will recruit diverse faculty and students who will be actively engaged in a dynamic curriculum that integrates theoretical and clinical learning. The curriculum will have the ability to adapt to current and future trends while staying consistent with the core values of occupational therapy and being clearly focused on occupation. Faculty will engage in robust scholarship informing teaching and clinical practice. Graduates will be innovators and problem-solvers committed to social and occupational justice who contribute to the evidence base of the profession. We will expand our work in the faculty-run clinics and in the community, recognizing that clients and organizations are our partners in delivering occupational therapy. The community will recognize the department as a valuable resource in empowering people to live life to the fullest through engagement in occupations.
What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational Therapy is a field in which one can bring together a variety of interests -- medicine, psychology, psychiatry, work activities, music, art, dance, and crafts (adopted by the Representative Assembly, American Occupational Therapy Association, March 7, 1981).
Where do Occupational Therapists Work?
The term "occupation" means all the activities that occupy meaningful day-to-day living, including work, self-care, and leisure. Occupational Therapy is a health profession that helps people who have been affected by accident or injury, disease, aging, developmental delay, or psychological disability to make the necessary lifestyle changes to become more self-sufficient and independent.

On June 14 the Maryland Foster Care Program hosted its first "Launch Party" in order to celebrate the 21st birthday of a young man who is aging out of the system. The party was an inspiration to everyone in attendance and reminded all that were a part of the celebration that through the challenges and successes, we truly do make an impact on the youth in our programs.
Matthew has had the same family consultant, Thomas Smith, since he came to KidsPeace five years ago. One of the many guests at the party was KidsPeace Family Resource Specialist Nadine Anderson, who interviewed Matthew prior to his admission to the program and who shared many kind words about him and well wishes for the future.
In the past year, as Matthew was preparing for independence, he has also worked closely with the Maryland KEYS Coordinator, Jocelyn Kennedy. KEYS stands for KidsPeace Empowering Youth to Succeed and is a unique program focused on group and individual independent living skills preparation and mentoring, as well as job finding and preparation. Matthew was an active participant in KEYS and, as a result of his attendance at bi-monthly KEYS groups, he earned more than $900 in savings that will be applied toward his rent as he prepares to live on his own (in addition to more than $900 that he received as cash in hand for his participation each week). The money that KidsPeace MidAtlantic programs has raised for KEYS will also help the program to rent a truck in order to furnish his apartment and apply toward rent for future months. Additionally, through the generosity of community partners who have donated items to the KEYS program, Matthew was able to pick out several items (such as pillows, baskets filled with household items, a microwave) to help make his new apartment a home as he prepares to live on his own for the very first time.
The party was first of many in the future for those youth who prepare to exit the foster care system at the age of 21 and venture out into the world on their own. The first party was a success from the decorations to the special food that guests prepared for the occasion, to the Metallica poster everyone signed for Matthew to have a daily reminder that we care.
Congratulatory toasts, happy birthday songs, ice cream cake and smiles were all around the room. Matthew even kicked off the toasts (with sparkling cider of course!) by thanking everyone for the help and care he received during his time here, and he gave a special thank you to his foster mother, Nola Davis, who, as Matthew said, hung in there with him during the most difficult time, when he was anxious about preparing for adulthood and needing to leave foster care. Staff members were thrilled to have the opportunity to let Matthew know what potential they see in him and wish him well on his way to adulthood knowing that KidsPeace will always be here for him if he needs a friendly face, kind words or support.
Everyone who attended was touched by the event and the program looks forward to celebrating all youth who turn 21 in order to "launch" them successfully into adulthood.

Woman accused of embezzling from WalmartNovember 24,2012BENNINGTON A Benmont Avenue woman was charged with a felony count of embezzlement this week after police said she had taken about $1,000 in cash and merchandise while working at the Walmart in Bennington between July and October.
Kimberly A. Young, 26, of Bennington, pleaded innocent this week to the single charge in Bennington criminal court. Young was released without bail.
In an affidavit, Cpl. Christopher Lauzon of the Bennington Police Department said he met with Chris Colehamer, asset protection manager at the local Walmart on Oct. 8. Colehamer told police that Young, who worked at the store, admitted to taking items like cigarettes, food and money.
On Oct. 19, Lauzon reviewed video surveillance footage from the store. Lauzon said he saw instances of Young taking items on different occasions from Sept. 2 to Oct. 17.
In a statement, Colehamer said he began investigating Young after she was short $40 in her register on Sept. 30. After watching her for several weeks, Colehamer said he had evidence she took cash and merchandise worth $1,001.19.MORE IN This Just InBy Kathleen Phalen Tomaselli Full StoryBennington College and Middlebury College both top a list for most entrepreneurial colleges in...

Until this moment--this shrill outburst that comes out of nowhere and startles both interviewer and subject--Marisa Tomei had been speaking in hushed tones, like someone making funeral arrangements. Every so often, she would punctuate her sentences with giggles--some nervous, some delirious--but suddenly, she is laughing uncontrollably like someone so amused with herself she barely notices anyone else in the room. The conversation up to this point had been about one thing, more or less: What the hell happened to Tomei's career? She even started the interview by griping about the lack of good romantic comedies, the dearth of good roles; she was hinting that she has made bad choices and that others have made bad choices for her. She was trying to explain the unfathomable: Why did a woman who won an Academy Award only a few years ago disappear in a list of films that gather dust on video-store rental shelves?
Then, suddenly, it hits her.
"I'm retiring! Hangin' up my crown!" She begins giggling again. Her legs dangle over the arms of her oversized hotel-suite chair. Her mouth opens wide, as though she's been punched in the stomach, and out spills a high-pitched laugh that bounces around the room until it dulls to an echo. One is tempted to look around for a camera.
This is why it's a bad idea to interview actors. They are always on stage, in front of the camera, playing to the cheap seats. So much drama, especially when they have to recite their own lines and not those penned for them. Just a few minutes earlier, Tomei had been talking about why she wanted to become an actor, and why her profession of choice had let her down. She was talking about how she wanted to be one of those honest actors, revealing great truths while wearing someone else's clothes and speaking someone else's lines and standing where someone else told her to stand. "It's me expressing myself through a character," she insists, "and I get to be honest through this character."
Only, she is explaining, she's never had that chance, not really. Maybe once or twice, she says: in My Cousin Vinny, for which she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her turn as a loudmouth New Yawkuh, or A Brother's Kiss, a small 1997 film directed by her friend Seth Zvi Rosenfeld. But with the exception of a handful of big, fleshed-out roles in small, little-seen films (among them The Perez Family in 1995, Welcome to Sarajevo two years later, and 1998's Slums of Beverly Hills), her filmography reads like The Movie Channel's late-night lineup. It's pockmarked with films that made pennies on the dollar, movies that were released on video and on airplanes (where, rumor has it, audiences tried to walk out on Only You, a tepid, obvious romantic comedy in which she was overwhelmed by Robert Downey Jr.). Earlier this year, she appeared in The Watcher, a serial-killer movie so wretched that Keanu Reeves disowned it before its release.
"The problem is," she begins, "there always comes that moment on the set when you have to lie to make the other characters look better--so the leading guy doesn't look like an asshole. It was kind of heartbreaking when I started film acting, because I didn't realize that, and it's something I've come to accept--that it's not an actor's medium. It's the director's medium, and then after the director comes the editor, then the studio. It's about those things. But you accept it, because I still really love movies, and I still find it a challenge to try to keep getting that vision across. Because being a hired gun sucks. Being a hired gun, you're just always...selling, because you're looking to get hired." She laughs, but not because she finds what she's said particularly funny. "I don't like that part of it.
"But, I mean, how can I get my vision across? I'm not in charge of the camera. I'm not in charge of the overall thing, and that's fine. It's not that I want to be in charge of the movie. I don't ever want to be. I don't have that desire. But I would just like to understand where I fit in and what I'm part of. I don't think I picked well, but I didn't know how to pick. Then I just go back full circle to: I was young; I was a kid; I didn't know. How could I know? What I've learned is, if the script is still sitting there and I can't decide, I am trying to convince myself and force myself, or someone else is telling me it's good for me, and it turns out to be a disaster for me spiritually. What we're really talking about is spiritual. It's hard to talk about, because it sounds so silly."
When she does turn up in major films, when she does get the chance to communicate her "vision," she is buried so deep in the credits, archeologists are called in to retrieve her. Hers is the best performance in the sitcom-smarmy What Women Want, in which she plays a manic, skittish coffee-shop girl in lust with Mel Gibson's rat-pack ad exec, but she's relegated to the margins--the afterthought who steals the show. Little wonder she has come to refer to herself as a "character actor" and a "hired gun"; that is what happens when those who have been told they're special wake up one morning and realize they're now thought of as ordinary.
