Remote Monitoring System Supports Proactive Heart Failure Care
To help support proactive patient care for those at risk for worsening heart failure, Medtronic introduced the CareLink Network for Heart Failure. The remote monitoring system is an extension of the current CareLink system for implantable cardiac device monitoring system.
The patient management solution provides heart failure physicians and nurses with important device data, which can help them better manage their patients. With CareLink for Heart Failure, clinicians remotely monitor heart failure device patients and their implantable cardiac device diagnostics, such as the OptiVol Fluid Status Monitoring and Cardiac Compass Reports. Together these features may help identify patients at risk of worsening heart failure.
The new CareLink for Heart Failure program makes it easier for clinicians to monitor heart failure patients with implantable cardiac devices, including cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices, which improve the heart's pumping efficiency or blood flow, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) for patients at risk of sudden cardiac death or deadly arrhythmias. Remote monitoring has been shown to safely reduce the number of clinic visits and save patients and physicians time on follow up visits.
The CareLink Network for Heart Failure provides customizable CareAlert Notifications to help clinicians identify cardiac device patients at risk for worsening symptoms.
The system was introduced in the fall of 2010.

a recent storm in the North Pacific will finally reach shore in Newport Beach, California; Hawaii's North Shore; Mexico; or Tahiti as the long, undulating waves known as swell.
Just what is swell? As I explain in Chapter 4, storm winds typically follow a circular path, stirring up the sea as the storm propagates. Storm waves mix with preexisting sea waves, and in a short time the sea roils with a mixture of waves large and small, with long and short wavelengths, coming from various directions. This scenario is known as a confused sea. (See Chapter 7 for more on this subject.) Waves radiate from the storm center, in much the same manner as they emanate from a rock tossed into a quiet pond. Some of the waves will head off in the direction in which the storm is moving, in which case, if the storm continues to blow, they will grow larger. Others, headed in the opposite direction, will not increase in size. In either case, storm-generated waves propagate from the center of the storm, the faster waves (those with longer periods and wavelengths) gradually outstripping their slower counterparts. In this process, known as dispersion, the sea acts as a filter so that at locations distant from the source, the waves that traverse a particular point eventually will exhibit similar characteristics. These distant, dispersed waves are known as swell. (Later, when the slower waves reach this same point, their characteristics will be different.) Swell travels long distances, only slowly giving up its energy. Swell from a given North Pacific storm can be tracked clear across the Pacific until it finally dissipates on the coast of North America.
Often the yachtsman will note that swell does not consist of nice uniform waves, but instead has a set of waves that seems to come at one angle to his course and another set that comes at a different angle. When swells from two different sources interact, the two (or more) wave fronts can produce various patterns. For example, two swell wave fronts intersecting at 45 degrees would produce a diamond-shaped pattern of crests and troughs. There can be more than two swells interacting—for example, near islands where swell impinges on the shore and reflects or is refracted back into the sea. If two sets of swell meet at

West students return to class after deadly explosion
Neighboring school districts become temporary home for students
WEST, Texas - For the first time since a massive fertilizer plant explosion obliterated parts of West, students from that community returned to the classroom Monday.
Students from the middle school, intermediate school and high school are now attending class in neighboring districts that hurried to make accommodations after the last Wednesday's blast damaged the schools in West.
Teachers and administrators were there to greet them with hugs and handshakes as they stepped off of the bus.
The town's elementary school was not in the blast zone.
Some of the teachers who welcomed the students Monday had not yet been able to return to their own homes following the explosion.
Some residents who live on the perimeter of the blast zone are being allowed to return to their homes. But people who lived closed to the plant are not allowed in.
As the town still reels from the devastation, the first step toward a return to normalcy has many residents faithful that they will bounce back.
"We'll never be the same around here, but we are a community that I am so happy and so proud to call home," said BJ Walters.
Meanwhile, authorities are still investigating what caused the explosion. While the exact cause is unknown, they say there was no criminal intent involved.
Frantic 911 calls released Monday show that it took only minutes for dispatchers to be swamped with calls from terrified residents. Nearly all 50 calls that flooded in during the next 35 minutes came from within a mile of the plant.

Launch abort testing for NASA's Orion crew exploration vehicle, planned for next year at the US space agency's Ames Research Center in California, could be delayed due to budget cuts.
The threat of budget-related delays again brings into question the timetable NASA has announced for its new spaceship, (Flight International, 12-18 September), which calls for manned flights before or during 2014.
NASA Ames' Free Flight Facility, built to test external-tank debris aerodynamics for the agency's Space Shuttle return-to-flight effort following the Columbia disaster in 2003, will be used for Project Orion's launch abort work.
The facility will examine how the crew capsule, after being pulled clear of the Ares 1 booster by its solid-rocket launch abort system, will alter its trajectory to descend heatshield-first. "The tests should be next fiscal year, in [the second quarter of calendar year 2007], but there is some debate about that because they might be delayed due to budget cuts," says Ames senior research scientist Jeffery Brown.
Another Ames' facility being used for Orion research is its Unitary Wind Tunnel complex. The research centre carried out descent tests on 2.7%- and 7%-scale Orion models earlier this year and found issues of pressure variations over the new conical shape.

Your parents' attitude towards your drumming

Re: Your parents' attitude towards your drumming
Everyone on my mom's side of the family were musicians I don't associate with my father, or his side of the family. My grandfather was a touring musician and played for just about every Bluegrass legend you can imagine. Bill Monroe, Ralph Stanely, Larry Sparks, Joe Isaacs - you name it, and if he didn't play with them, chances are he was good friends. He'd established hometown fame with his own Bluegrass bands in his old age, but on a national scale, he always stopped just short of being 'famous'. Not only was I the first of my family to play drums, but I was also the first to play anything besides Bluegrass or Country music. A lot of people don't believe me when I tell them I was almost 10 years old before I heard Rock music for the first time.
A man who played banjo for my grandfather's band ended up dating my mother, and in addition to Bluegrass, he liked Classic Rock. He had a copy of AC/DC's 'Back In Black' record, and every night I'd go through his bag, and if he had it with him, I'd stay up until near time to go to school listening to the CD over and over again. Then in 01' I believe, my mother bought me my first CD for christmas - it was Bon Jovi's Crush album. It wasn't long after that I got interested in drums.
My mother tried to get me to learn just about everything else except drums, and refused to buy me anything that had to do with the instrument. My first drum set was bought at a garage sale for 60 dollars, and it SUCKED, but I loved it. So anytime I got a little bit of money, I bought anything to do with drums that I could afford, rather it was heads, sticks, beaters, whatever. I just loved going to music stores or pawn shops and buying drum stuff.
I seriously got into drums when I was in highschool. I had friends who wanted to start a band, but couldn't play anything. One of them bought a cheap guitar and learned tabs. The other one was pretty much forced into playing bass. After that we found several different guitarists (all leaving from typical teenage drama), and eventually we just all stopped talking. We claimed our goal was to sound like Mastodon, In Flames, and bands like that, but we done well to make an AC/DC cover recognizable when we played. But I learned from the experience.
My mom's attitude toward me drumming has changed. She has a country music outfit, and I'm often asked to play when her regular drummers aren't available, which is fine because I always get paid. She's now pretty encouraging of it, and actually buys tickets to my bands' shows when she isn't busy with her own music.

- Introduction
Concentrate And Ask Again is the twelfth episode of the third season of FRINGE. It first aired on February 04, 2011. The investigation follows three men intent on revenge that are using a powderized bioweapon to assassinate those they blame for their losses. A hyper-sensitive test subject from Walter's past agrees to assist with the difficult case and finds a new friend in Olivia.
SynopsisMassive Dynamic, Nina Sharp walks out of an elevator, down a stark hallway and swipes her keycard to gain access to a secure room. The room is full of artifacts and memorabilia from William Bell. Nina takes a moment to look around the room at the gathered items, including diplomas from Yale and Princeton that were awarded to Bell. Nina adjusts a thermostat on the wall to its' minimum setting, and a holographic vent grating fades away and reveals a safe with a digital keypad and a small - Stay out, this means you note. She opens the safe with the code 0-5-2-0-1-0. Inside the safe, are a few valued items: A small red Ford Mustang model car - that makes her smile, a stack of sketched logos for Massive Dynamic, an old picture of William and Walter, and an old picture The First People". Nina makes a quick phone call to have Agent Dunham summoned. Later, after Olivia has joined her in her office, Nina tells her that the various The First People books are not 'essentially' the same - they are 'precisely' the same, in all languages by the various authors. She has no idea why Bell was interested in the books. Nina thinks that the decrypted journal Bolivia left behind may shed some light on The First People or the device. Olivia disagrees... there was nothing in the journal about them. Nina is a little surprised - she did not know that Olivia had been given access to the files. Awkward! Olivia reading about Peter's time with the other Olivia? Olivia is fine with it, though her counterpart did seem to develop genuine feelings for Peter, above and beyond her mission of espionage and counterintelligence (Reciprocity). Her biggest concern is that Peter may have similar feelings for Bolivia, a better version of her.
← At an INtREPUS office building, Warren Blake shares a birthday celebration with his coworkers. He is gifted with a Magic 8-Ball that promptly reports that the outlook is not so good when it comes to being awarded the Fowler Grant. Not disheartened, his colleagues render a warm birthday song along with a large cake with sparklers and candles. Later, in his office, Warren opens a recently delivered package and finds a curious offering. Inside is a child's rag doll with a pullstring. He removes the doll, examines it, then pulls the string. He is greeted by the repetitive laughter of a child, followed by a puff of blue powder that sprays from the doll. He immediately starts to choke, convulse and fall... his own weight is too heavy for his skeletal frame to bear. His arms and legs are disintegrating within him. His assistant, Grace, hears the commotion from down the hall and reaches him just after he collapses in bone-crushing pain. She finds Warren lumped on the floor and screams... he has been reduced to a structureless pile of skin, flesh and clothing.
ACT IAt the INtREPUS office, the science team gathers less than two hours after the attack on Warren Blake. Broyles informs the team that the Boston Police Department have already evacuated the building and established a quarantine area when they heard the murder may have been from a
In Walter's Lab, Olivia checks the security footage from the Post Office in Chelsea. The package with the rag doll was delivered from there two days earlier. She also quietly notes that the coffee Peter picked-up for her has milk in it, instead of what he normally gets for her, sugar only. Astrid's
At Downey's home in Quincy, a dozen armed officers force entry into the house wearing protective masks. They search the house and find no signs of the suspect or airborne contaminants.
At the hospital, the attending doctor explains to the team that Downey has brain damage and is unconscious. If he were to regain consciousness, he would not be able to talk, swallow, or breathe without a machine. Walter looks at Aaron's chart and notices a small amount of cerebral activity still occurring. This gives him an idea... he must return to the lab to think about. The woman in the photo album is Downey's ex-wife.
The team brings her in and learns about Warren Blake. Her ex-husband finally did it, he had talked about killing Blake after they lost their child in her seventh month of pregnancy, but she never took him seriously. Sara explains to Olivia and Peter that Aaron was in the military up until four years ago. He decided to leave the military for a contract job overseas, and when he came back, they started the family they had wanted. Seven months into the pregnancy the baby died, and the couple learned that Aaron passed on a DNA pathogen that left the baby without a skeleton. The baby's name was going to be Madison. Aaron believed he had been exposed to the pathogen when he was overseas, and that Blake, who was in charge of the project, was responsible. Sara adds that the same thing happened to two others who were with Aaron overseas. She did not know the names of the other two men. Outside of the interview room, Peter receives a phone call. Walter is calling from a roadside phone booth in New Hampshire. He is out of gas, money, and is hungry.
Peter and Olivia find Walter, bring him gas for his car, and ask him where he was going. He explains that he is going to find a man named Simon Philips, a Cortexiphan trial patient that was released from the program after he developed the ability to read minds. Peter questions Walter's motives for kicking the kid out, wondering aloud whether Walter was scared that Simon would find out his secret, that Peter had been taken from the other universe. Walter explains that the only way he knows to find out what Aaron knows about the bioweapon attacks is to "re-activate" Simon's ability to read minds.
The trio arrives in Washington, Vermont and approaches Simon's secluded home in the woods. Walter goes around to the side of the house to urinate, finishes his business, and turns around to find Simon pointing a pistol at him. Simon instantly starts to repeat the things that Walter is thinking, proving his ability is not dormant. Olivia finds the two and points her pistol at Simon. Simon calms down when he is unable to read her mind and learns she was in the drug trial too. Simon is overwhelmed by Walter's thoughts and collapses. Inside Simon's cabin, Olivia and Simon talk. He tells her how refreshing it is to have a real conversation after twenty years. Around the house are drawings, all of the same woman. Simon tells Olivia that he can't control his ability, and that is why he lives in seclusion. Olivia reassures Simon that she understands that it is hard to deal with their abilities, but that he has the power to help people with it. She asks him if he would return to Boston with them to help with an investigation. Simon is apprehensive at first, but he agrees to cooperate with them.
In the lobby of the Canopy One Defense Corp building, three men are getting on an elevator. Inside they find a doll with a note on it that says "Happy Birthday From: Carla." As the elevator ascends, the three men are heard screaming: another attack.
At the hospital, patients are moved from surrounding rooms, so Simon can visit Downey and read his mind without pain or distraction. Olivia coaches Simon to concentrate and train his thoughts. At first the thoughts are too jumbled, then Simon has Olivia ask specific questions to illicit more focused thinking. She asks who was involved in the attack and a rush of thoughts come to Simon, making him nauseous. After vomiting, Simon quickly writes as many of the thoughts he heard on a pad of paper for Olivia. The list includes: peas, grasshopper, carrots, oxidized, vegetable plate, Maryann, Project Jellyfish, stat, NK8749J, doctors, dawns early light, powder canister, etc.... The team discusses the list and determines that Project Jellyfish is probably their lead after Walter explains that the jellyfish is one of the only creatures with no bones. Olivia feels bad for Simon, and Peter immediately says that although she might think it, she is nothing like Simon. Broyles enters and tells them there has been another bio-attack, this time at Canopy One Defense Corp.
Olivia talks to Simon, who asks whether the information he gave them was helpful. Olivia says she's not sure yet, but meanwhile she asks about the picture that Simon is currently drawing. He seems to be working on another drawing of the woman whose pictures are all over his house. Simon tells Olivia that it is a woman who works at a local coffee shop and that she is perfect. Olivia assumes, correctly, that Simon has never met this woman. Simon then proceeds to explain that he is scared to meet her due to his ability and the fact that he would be able to tell what she thought of him, regardless of what she claimed her feelings were. Olivia tells Simon that he shouldn't be scared of what he thinks might happen, because he doesn't know for sure. Simon tells her that no one should be able to read another person's thoughts, but Olivia tells him that she wouldn't mind having his ability, if only for a short while. She, personally, would like to know what Peter is thinking, presumably about Bolivia.
Back in Nina's office, Broyles is informed that "officially," Project Jellyfish never existed. Nina's CIA contact, Agent Edwards, explains that the project participants were inoculated, and the pathogen passed onto their children. The CIA Agent Edwards also tells Broyles that along with the house Downey was given by the government, he was also given 25 acres of farmland just south of Boston.
In Pembroke, MA, inside a barn on the property owned by Downey, two men perform a weaponization test. A human dummy is set up wearing a vest rigged with more canisters of the chemical. The two men put on safety goggles and one hits a detonator. The vest erupts with a blue powder and it seems the two men are ready for the next stage of their crime spree.
Walter, in a Haz-Mat suit, walks out of the barn in Pembroke, MA. He takes off his mask and says that the powder has fully oxidized and that they are safe to go in. Inside the discover a large scale map of the next attack, but do not know the location. On the wall, Olivia and Broyles discuss an article about Congressman Jim Thorn, who used to be an army general, and possibly the one that approved Project Jellyfish. Broyles immediately decides to alert Thurn's security guards of the situation. In the meantime, Peter has found a piece of paper that has Maryann Douglas Wing printed on it. Olivia verifies that this is a section of the Fine Arts Museum, and Broyles adds in the Thurn is having a fundraiser there. This must be the next target.
At the Maryann Douglas Wing of the Fine Arts Musuem, Olivia is planning to walk Simon around in an attempt to discover the suspects by reading their minds. Before they begin their search, an agent explains to Olivia that if one of the suspects is about to push the trigger, she must be able to shoot him through the mouth in order to severe the spinal cord and keep his finger from pushing down.
Olivia and Simon begin their search below in one of the service corridors. They are quickly approached by a man who tells them that they aren't supposed to be there, but they give an excuse that Simon does not feel well and that they need a bathroom. The man points them to where they need to go, and leaves. Simon identifies this man as one of the suspects and Olivia pursues him. She pulls her gun and looks around, but cannot find the man. The man, meanwhile, is hiding between some crates, waiting to ambush Olivia. Luckily, the reflection off of a plate gives away the suspects location and Olivia is able to shoot him before he gets a chance to do the same to her. Olivia then checks the man for the vest device, and determines that the last remaining suspect must be wearing it. She calls in her report and tells them that her and Simon are going back out there to find the last suspect.
ACT VInside the reception area at the Fine Art Museum, Olivia and Simon mingle their way through the guests looking for the last assassin. Simon, overwhelmed by all of the thoughts he is hearing, manages to point out the target, who is worried about his missing partner. Peter joins Olivia with compliments and coffee. The coffee is just the way she likes it, not her counterpart, and the compliment is genuine... she looks great in her formal gown. Nearby, Simon sits and waits for Olivia to remove him from all of the surrounding chaos. Walter approaches him and thinks deeply about saying something, but thinks better of it. Simon looks back at him and says nothing.
Washington, Vermont. Olivia drives Simon home through the dark woods. Once there, she walks him to the front porch and offers an encouraging thought – his life doesn't need to be one of isolation - go meet the woman that fascinates him. His ability should not stop him from living his life. Simon knows better - no one is supposed to know what another person is thinking. Although he can't read her mind, he did read Peter's – and wrote down his thoughts for her. Olivia takes the envelope he hands her and leaves without reading it.Massive Dynamic. Nina sits in her office the German version of the book and quickly rearranges the letters into another name - the name of a good friend.
Sam Weiss is busy sweeping the lanes. Nina has slipped into the building undetected and is intent on confronting Sam on two topics. First, why does it seem that he is the author of The First People books? And second, what is the device intended for? Why has he never mentioned any of this to her before? Sam avoids the question of authorship and talks about the device, unaware, until now, that it had been found. Peter Bishop is who she needs to worry about, not him. The device is specifically in tune with Peter and his frequency, and that frequency depends on his state-of-mind. That state-of-mind could be determined by whichever Olivia he chooses. The universe that survives will belong to the Olivia he chooses. Nina is confident that Peter will save this universe. Sam warns her that she should not be so sure of that.
In her apartment, Olivia sits and reads the simple, hand-written note she was given. - He still has feelings for her.
- General
- The Observer saunters into Congressman Thorn's gala fundraiser just before Olivia intercepts the final assassin.
- Walter drinks the popular fictional SLUSHO after Peter and Olivia arrive in New Hampshire with food for him and fuel for his station wagon.
- While reading Walter's mind, Simon hears "Z2 = Z1 squared plus C", part of the base formula for the Mandelbrot Set at the core of complex fractal geometry.
- One of the twenty possible answers inside the Magic 8-Ball is Concentrate And Ask Again.
- Recurring Themes
- Anagram and Sam Weiss. Nina discovers anagrams for The First People authors lead to Sam. Olivia discovered a secret message hidden in a therapeutic anagram task (Dream Logic) assigned by Sam.
- Combination. Nina uses the code 0-5-2-0-1-0 to open the hidden safe at Massive Dynamic. Walter uses the code 05-20-10 to open the locked daycare building (Jacksonville) that he conducted the Cortexiphan test trials in. His rationale... "I always use the same combination, though I can't remember the significance".
- Episode Reference
- The First People. Nina mentions that The First People book led them to the coordinates of the pieces of Wave Sink Device. (6955 kHz)
|The blue recycle bin (Reciprocity) in the alleyway where Peter kills a fleeing shapeshifter is labeled with a "Powder Blue" sticker, foreshadowing the blue powder bioweapon wielded throughout this episode.

Only fear I have is tht my character will be maxed out before even finishing the game. In my opinion a game that allows the player to customize their character shouldn't be able to max every skill in a single play through. They should have created something like Borderlands/Diablos skill tree.
I love the improvements to the shooting though, its so much better now. I actually feel like I have control over my characters accuracy now. The guns do need stats, thats a valid complaint... they have a difference, they aren't just paint jobs but without any stats its such a guessing game. I don't care about a lack of inventory system, I actually like how you pick your equipment but the complete lack of items is kinda meh.
I don't know why they removed armor though, yeah the player can choose his armor but its just stat bonuses not actual armor like the previous game. Worse is that you can't choose your squadmates armor which is just weird. I mean why is one character in the party fully armored yet everyone else in their PJs.
The games look is awesome. The graphics improvements is very noticable, character faces look better and the world seems more active and alive. I love how you travel from location to location now, gives the player alittle more hands on.
My last complaint and probably the thing that bothers me the most is the summary screen when you complete a mission. This just feels out of place in an on going story rpg, its better in a level based game like Serious Sam or just in one that the levels aren't connected or try to be. This kinda interupts the game and just seems out of place.
I know it sounds like im talking negative about the game but I am really nitpicking, overall the game is better then the original. Im having a blast with it.
Nice write up. Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like a good action game. Not a deeper game from the first like I was hoping for but will buy this eventually on the cheap.

Trance Music Paradise
This place is paradise for all people who love trance music. The ambiance is one of the best I have seen, its like a jungle inside a club. Honestly I have not tried the food, but the drinks are very expensive. I would repeatedly go to this place as they get down the best DJs and also because of this one off ambiance.

An Ultimate Bollywood Night
I had gone to Pebble with my group of friends for their Bollywood night with DJ Aqeel. Right from the crowd to the ambience, everything was just perfect to make it a fun event. While we danced away the night, the best part were the cocktails. Since we did not eat much, can't say about the food, but yes, the music and party feel is to die for.
Went with high expectations to celebrate New Years after having read all these wonderful comments and also having heard about it from so many people. But I'm sure that me and at least a hundred other people who came here would swear that we will NEVER come back here, After having waited for more than an hour, the gates were shut. When we asked for people from the management, the crew said that there was no one from the management stayed. There was almost a stampede at the entrance. I had paid 14,000 for the passes and was denied access. I want my money back!!!!

Music, Nature, Trance beats and nice crowds
A nice club wonderful music, trance beats... the disco lights while passing through the huge tree that stands all over the place flowing through the branches, twigs and leaves drives you crazy and in a trance, gets you high. Bit overcrowded at times, but the crowd is all party loving. Just go get lost in the music, in the lights, in the nature, trees and the setups that gets well into the jungle theme... just loose yourself, dance

Excellent Ambiance
This place rocks. Set in a rocky jungle theme, this night club has the setup for excellent music, flowing booze and the lush greens with rocky outdoors set the mood just right for a high class camping type party. Pebbles is completely buzzing on Saturday nights, with a nominal cover.The house music is commendabl. The drinks and the bites are priced at par with any other pub

Coolest way to Party!
Walked in with 3 girls to celebrate my sisters birthday! The perfect ambience of candle light lit hall with a very decent crowd at 9PM. We ordered a few cocktails and starters and waited for the party to warm up. By 10:30, we had all the people in house on the dance floor dancing like animals for Diwali bash.
We were pretty satisfied with our drinks ( cosmopolitan, Bacardi special, lychee cooler and bloody Mary) and we grooved to the latest hits and danced our way home!
Definitely a must visit place, this was my 3rd time here.

Overly Crowded Average Place
A large group of friends decided to goto Pebbles on a Saturday night. It was indeed a long journey from South Bangalore. For whatever reasons, the road that leads to Pebbles was jam packed that night and we could reach the place only by 11PM. We had to park the cars in the grounds next to it and walk to the venue. The place was also jam packed with too many people. Its a huge, real huge place with small shelters here and there for people whod want to sit and enjoy their drinks and food.
The dance floor is also big and in the open air. However, the floor is not flat and there are high possibility of one slipping and falling. Another reason for this to happen is the broken glasses all over the floor. I guess people who carry their drinks to the dance floor end up dropping them and one need to be extra cautious and make sure not to hurt themselves.
The entry was free for girls that day and for men it was 1000 bucks each. Its an average place to party. It could probably be better if theres some light while walking around or atleast if the floor is flat unlike what it is now. No comments on the food as we dint get to taste it. The crowd was a mix of firings and Indians. Definitely a good crowd and one who is too keen on the kind of crowd, would enjoy this place.

quite OK
On more than four occasions i have been to pebbles and i quite like it, its quite unassuming and relaxed, it has a huge seating area that is divided a little abruptly, its a bit too dimly lit, seating are not that comfortable esp the ones on the stone, they don have a back rest that gets annoying .The waiters are not very attentive which im not sure is good or bad, i somehow prefer them not bothering me much until i ask for their help. I still seem to like this places , one reason it being very close to my home and the other that the crowd is sometimes good (NOT ALWAYS) . Food is average but they make very good cocktails. The bartender really has got his portions rite since i really liked the cocktails, unlike most lounges where the cocktails are diluted to an extent that you dont realize what youre drinking, here they are made good, i like the shooters that they gave as a complimentary. Its a bit expensive but im sure to go in here again
Cesspool of expat trash
Pebbles is actually a great venue with a variety of lounge spaces and dance areas depending on what you are in the mood for. Their last party, on Saturday, January 16th, however, was a cesspool of expat trash. Hosted by what appeared to be a well known party plannner cum loser, VIren, the crowd showed its truly colors when the party was over. I dont know whether it was just this particular night or Bengaluru's "hifi" party scene in general but the crowd milling outside in the wee hours of midnight was utterly obnoxious. Although we were warned of Viren's notorious love for white trash (hailing from both the european and north american continents) nothing could have prepared us for the drunken stupidly and mindless exchanges that defined much of the night. Pebbles should think twice before hosting Viren again.

|A british spy abroad taps into a new york computer operator's bank terminal and asks her for help. Penny marshall's directorial debut.
Editor's NoteTerry Dolittle (Whoopi Goldberg) is a brilliant but underappreciated data entry clerk who works for Manhattan's First National Bank under the watchful eye of her dictatorial boss Mr. Page (Peter Goetz). Terry often chats with clients via her terminal, which occasionally picks up Russian television. The tides of Terry's life turn when one day she picks up a transmission from a British spy trapped in Eastern Europe, who has the code name of Jumpin' Jack Flash; he enlists Terry's help in securing an exit contract, sending her on quirky excursions to help him escape and avoid foul play. Thus ensues a convoluted mission where Terry is on the run from the KGB, kidnapped while in a phone booth (phone booth and all), injected with a truth serum, and attempts to get a crucial message to Jack before the Russians have their way with him. She also manages to find love, get back at her boss, and do a great Mick Jagger impression to the fantastic soundtrack of music from the 60s. This is Whoopi in top form!

This fossil tooth and jawbone was one of the first pieces of evidence that miniature elephants once lived on Cyprus. It was discovered by intrepid collector Dorothea Bate, the first female scientist employed at the Natural History Museum.
Dorothea Bate (front right) in a photograph of the Museum's Geology Department in 1938.
Dorothea Bate was a self-taught, zealous natural historian. In 1897 she enthusiastically talked her way into a job at the Museum aged just 19. She was paid only for the number of specimens she collected and prepared.
This continued for nearly 50 years until, aged 70, she finally received her first official appointment: Officer in Charge of Tring, our Museum in Hertfordshire.
Bate's collecting expeditions began in Wales, where she found a cave containing fossil mammals. Encouraged by palaeontologists at the Museum she published a report on these finds aged only 22, then set off to explore further afield.
On Cyprus, Bate hunted for caves in which to look for bones. She ventured to desolate places, facing challenging living conditions, illness and the danger of violent crime.
Illustration of dwarf elephant fossil remains found by Dorothea Bate.
Her bravery and perseverance were rewarded when in 1901 she found fossils of what looked like elephant teeth, only much smaller. They were the first evidence on Cyprus of the phenomenon of island dwarfism in elephants.
The dwarf elephants evolved from the now-extinct straight-tusked elephant, Palaeoloxodon antiquus. These large elephants probably swam to Cyprus from mainland Europe. They adapted to the island environment, which may have had limited food, by getting smaller. The lack of predators also meant there was no need to stay big. Eventually, adult elephants became approximately the same size as pigs.
Bate not only accurately identified her finds as small elephants, but asked 'why are they small?'
Her interest in the evolutionary relationship between animals and their environments grew. She expanded her inquiries, beginning the science of archaeozoology – the study of past relationships between animals and humans.
Today, Museum scientists Adrian Lister and Victoria Herridge are studying the effects of dramatic environmental changes over the last 800,000 years on the evolution and survival of dwarf elephants.
They are using modern techniques to date fossils more accurately. This work could eventually help us understand how mammals might respond now to climate change.

Casting the Spell, Part 1
A Warhammer: Invasion The Card Game spotlight
Welcome back to another Warhammer: Invasion The Card Game spotlight! Signs in the Stars, the fourth Battle Pack in The Morrslieb Cycle, is on store shelves this week. So today, let's move on to the upcoming fifth Battle Pack, The Eclipse of Hope.
When we announced The Morrslieb Cycle late last year, Warhammer: Invasion's developer summed up his design goals, saying:
The first major goal of The Morrslieb Cycle is to encourage players to build developments. This has been touched on in past cards [...], but The Morrslieb Cycle really takes this basic concept and brings it to another level. There [are] several cards in this cycle that encourage players to consider developing (especially from the hand) as an important strategic decision. If I were to characterize this set in a phrase, it would be that this is the cycle in which "developments matter."
Spelling Doom
This emphasis on developments has been evident throughout the cycle so far, most notably in the Wood Elves' manipulation of Forest Spirits like Tree Kin (Omens of Ruin, 18). But in no single pack is this theme as explicit as it is in The Eclipse of Hope, with its linked collection of "Spell" cards. In this upcoming Battle Pack, each of the six major factions receives one Spell (or in the case of Dwarfs, a Rune) that increases the speed at which developments can be placed, while offering some additional ability specific to its faction. The forces of Destruction, for example, receive Firin' Da Spell (85), Unleashing the Spell (94), and Testing the Spell (96).
The Orcs' Firin' Da Spell offers raw combat damage indicative of their aggressive culture, while the forces of Chaos can unleash a spell that could deal a final devastating blow to a crumbling capital. Meanwhile, the Dark Elves can take temporary control of high cost enemy units!
Which is the most powerful? What combos will you employ when these three cards hit your Warhammer: Invasion deck? Discuss possible synergies below or in our forums, and come back next week when we'll see what these thematically linked cards have in store for players of Order!

Despite Bengals win, Dalton still misfires
Harbaugh: "That ends that and that stings."
Bengals fans haven't been sold on quarterback Andy Dalton. Despite Cincinnati's 34-17 victory over the Ravens on Sunday, their angst over the QB probably still hasn't abated.
If you listened to the CBS announcers while you watched Sunday's game — Ravens fans could be forgiven for not hearing some of the commentary while they yelled at the TV — you heard it mentioned that the Bengals have not won a playoff game in 23 years. Dalton can't take the blame for that entire run of futility — and he can't be expected to recall that 1990 postseason win, being that he was 3 years old at the time — but though he will be making his third straight playoff appearance to start his career, the previous two have been one-and-done affairs with losses to the Texans.
At least the Bengals don't have to worry about making it three in a row to Houston. However, what is worrisome from the Cincinnati perspective is how Dalton finished up the season by throwing four interceptions against the Ravens.
And that was four picks in 36 passes, not a huge number by any means.
RELATED: [Smith: "We just came up short" (VIDEO)]
On the final interception, by Jimmy Smith in the fourth quarter, the coaching staff did Dalton no favor by making an ill-advised call for a fade route to A.J. Green when the Bengals had a first down on the Ravens' 1. Still, Dalton put the ball in a spot where Smith could get to it.
You could say much the same about the first interception, on the Bengals' first offensive play of the game. Yes, Corey Graham made a terrific play, knocking the ball out of Marvin Jones' hands and then snagging the rebound against his helmet. But the pass was a tad underthrown.
The other two interceptions? One way overthrown, one way underthrown.
RELATED: [Red zone failures leave Ravens seeing red]
Attribute the victory partly to the fact that the Bengals still have an explosive offensive, with a deep, talented receiving corps led by Green and Jones and a big-play-waiting-to-happen running back in Giovani Bernard, and partly to a defense capable of clamping down to make up for a QB's mistakes. Add to that a clever offensive scheme — forgetting that first-and-goal call for the moment — that completely flummoxed the Ravens defense at times, particularly on Dalton's fake handoffs for quarterback keepers, one of which resulted in a touchdown.
With those qualities in their favor, the Bengals should be considered capable of making some noise in the playoffs besides "See ya." But it's hard to feel confident in a team's chances when the quarterback punctuates his inconsistent season by turning the ball over four times.

Carinos Robusto 10 Pack
5 x 50 - Natural - Pack of 10
Cariños Robusto cigars are constructed using a blend of aged Panamanian and Honduran fillers, a Brazilian Sumatra binder, and top-grade Nicaraguan Jalapa Seco wrapper leaf. The smoke is medium-bodied with a baseline woody flavor, complemented by notes of leather a hint of spice on a sweet finish.
Interesting smoke. I enjoyed this stick and now I have a box in my humidor and life is beautiful.
Had the natural. Good smoke, amazing draw. It's not amazing, and I've had better for cheaper, I've also had much worse. Definitely recommend.
I just finished smoking the Carinos with the natural wrapper. The pre-light smell was very pleasant, it had a sharp spice when exhaled through the nose. It was a nice even burn all the way to the end. The taste was consistent throughtout the first 2 thirds, and got a little bitter at the end. The draw was very good the entire time. It was rolled very well with no soft spots, and the wrapper was attractive with small veins.
My Carino suffered from an inconsistent roll with a couple soft spots, one of which was down right spongy to the point that, even squeezing lightly, I squeezed the cigar down to half thickness. The burn reflected the roll, burning unevenly and requiring 2 corrections in the first half, but straightened out well after burning past the worst soft spot, and held ash surprisingly well. (almost 2 inches) Pre-light draw was light to medium and had a flavor that reminded me of the Turkish cigarettes I used to smoke. The flavor right after lighting was smooth and crisp with a sharp spiciness when exhaled through the nose. Flavor remained consistent through the first 2 thirds with the spiciness through the nose tapering off slightly. The last third added a creamy flavor for a nice finish. Draw while smoking is easy without being too light and provides plenty of smoke. Overall this is a good basic, low buck stick, great as an outside smoke.

MAMARONECK, N.Y. — Some 60 people swam 51 miles at the Orienta Beach Club on Saturday morning for Swim Across America (SAA), an organization dedicated to raising money for cancer research.
Set up by the Long Island Sound Chapter of SAA, the event observed its 20th year as swimmers young and old lined up sponsors.
"I say 'observe' and not 'celebrate' because we don't have a cure for cancer yet," said volunteer Jim Smith, who has been with SAA since 1998. "There is so much energy, magic and joy here."
Organizer Susan Eggers said she was flattered when the group asked her to lead the event this year. Having volunteered before at similar events, Eggers said it didn't take any convincing for participants to get in the pool and start swimming, even early on a Saturday morning.
"They do it because they love it and want to help," she said. "We are very grateful to the Orienta Beach Club for donating their facilities and we want to thank all the local merchants who helped."
For Smith, cancer is all too real. His wife died of breast cancer several years ago. He said the swim is about the people the organization serves who are battling this deadly disease.
"Cancer is real and it doesn't seem to be going away," Smith said. "We have to keep fighting it."
Swim Across America will take over the Long Island Sound at 6 a.m. Saturday, July 28, at the Larchmont Yacht Club. For more information, click here.

CDC and ASTHO Release Policy Toolkit for Healthcare-associated Infection Prevention
The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have collaborated since July 2010 to advance state-level healthcare-associated infection (HAI) prevention efforts. State health agencies play a central role in HAI elimination and protecting patients across the healthcare system; they also serve as a bridge between healthcare and the community.
ASTHO and CDC have created a toolkit and companion report to provide guidance to senior policy makers on promising ways to use legal and policy interventions as tools in implementing a comprehensive state-level HAI prevention program.
The toolkit, Eliminating Healthcare Associated Infections: State Policy Options [PDF - 2.1 MB] provides an inventory of state HAI legislation and examples of legal and policy interventions, which health officials can consider to facilitate HAI prevention. State policies can promote robust state HAI programs and complement federal payment incentives such as CMS's Value Based Purchasing program. These interventions can promote the principles of safety, accountability, and transparency that are central to preventing HAIs.
The companion report, Policies for Eliminating Healthcare Associated Infections: Lessons Learned from State Stakeholder Engagement [PDF - 5.4 MB] summarizes the outcomes of stakeholder meetings and phone consultations facilitated by the Keystone Center, regarding the early impact of HAI policies in states. CDC has provided a summary of the findings of the first two phases of this project. [PDF - 863 KB]
For questions about the toolkit or the companion report, or for additional information about the work ASTHO and CDC are doing to help states eliminate HAI, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Iron Man's Blunt Force
Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada) has been cast as the Black Widow in Iron Man 2.
Tony Stark's way with the ladies might very well prove lethal in Iron Man 2.
Variety reports that English actress Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada, The Wolfman) has "emerged as the frontrunner" to play the femme fatale Black Widow, a.k.a. Natalia Romanova, in the Jon Favreau-directed sequel.
Although Variety refers to Black Widow by the name of Natasha Romanoff, she is also known as Natalia Romanova in the comics. Marvel would not comment on the Blunt/Black Widow rumor for Variety.
Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell have been cast as the movie's two main villains. Filming begins this spring for a 2010 release.

A pilot program, the
Mid-continent Waterfowl Management Unit, was established in western Minnesota. A steering
committee of the Wildlife Management Institute, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources,
and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service guided the effort.

The "Mid-Continent Project" had Four Goals:
USFWS Photo
Management activities were
designed and field tested from 1978 through 1987 in a three county pilot area. In 1987,
the "mid-continent project" was expanded by the Fish and Wildlife Service into
an operational private lands habitat program (Partners for Wildlife) for application in
every state.
The Region 6 Partners for
Fish and Wildlife Program started in North Dakota in 1987 and has been expanded to all
other Region 6 states since then. Partners for Fish and Wildlife's focus goes
beyond waterfowl habitat.
Habitat restoration goals include:
Restoring habitat
through voluntary partnerships with private landowners.
Implementing habitat
restoration projects in partnership with State Fish and Wildlife agencies.
Restoring biological
diversity on private lands and (FmHA) easement and fee title transfers with an emphasis on
Assisting in the
conservation and restoration of biological diversity on National Wildlife Refuges by
conserving and restoring the ecosystems in which they are located.

Perry raises $3.5M in late '12; has $6M on-hand
Governor hasn't said if he'll seek fourth term
Texas Gov. Rick Perry raised a bit more than $3.5 million between July and December, pushing his campaign cash-on-hand to more than $6 million.
The Republican took office in December 2000 and is the longest serving governor in state history.
But Perry says he won't announce until this summer whether he will seek a fourth full term.
In the meantime, he has remained a prodigious fundraiser, taking in $3,554,046 from June 30 through December 8, 2012.
Perry's campaign said Tuesday it now has $6,028,635 in cash on-hand.
Attorney General Greg Abbott, also a Republican, is widely rumored to be mulling a run for governor. His campaign reported raising more than $4.1 million between July 1 and Dec. 31.
Abbott now has over an impressive $18 million in cash on-hand.
