It's practically impossible to talk about exercise without the topic of "calories" somehow coming up. Whether you're trying to lose weight by burning off excess calories or just trying to fuel your activity by making sure you eat enough, being able to accurately track your caloric expenditure can be a powerful tool. Frustratingly, though, there are many highly personal factors that can have a large impact on the actual amount of calories your body uses during exercise. Understanding these factors, and using that knowledge, can help you design the most effective workout for your unique situation.
Fitness Level
If you've ever worked hard to lose a large amount of weight, you know the excitement that comes with that first rapid decrease at the scale and the frustration that follows with the slowing of progress as you get closer to your goal. One of the reasons that this happens has to do with how your body adapts to exercise.
Consider a car: The better maintained it is, the more efficiently the engine runs and the less fuel it needs to travel the same distance as a car that is less cared for. Your body is very similar. As you become more fit, you will use significantly less calories to get through your workouts than you did when you first got started.
Type of Exercise and Workout Design
It may seem obvious to say that some exercises burn more calories than others but the real impact of this statement is much deeper than it appears at first. Generally speaking, the more muscle fibers you have working at once, the more calories you will burn.
To capitalize on this when strength training, focus on compound movements that emphasize big muscle groups like the chest, back and legs. When it comes to cardio, elliptical machines tend to activate more muscles at once than other modes and interval training increases the burn even more.
Surprisingly, your rest periods can also strongly affect how many calories you burn through during your workout. Try to keep your rests to about 60 seconds between each set. This applies to strength training and cardio interval training as well.
A Product of Your Environment
Running presents a special set of challenges that can all change how much fuel your body uses. Uneven and shifting terrain, like sand, incorporates more muscles than a solid surface by forcing your body to compensate and balance you out.
Other aspects of your environment when running outside, even those that seem relatively benign, should be considered. The density of the air, generally associated with elevation can both increase and decrease your caloric expenditure. Running at high altitudes, where the air is thinner, will require significantly fewer calories than at a lower elevation.
Even the wind can make things more difficult. It doesn't have to be a gale-force gust to make a difference, either. If the wind is steadily blowing against you, it can add a challenge whereas a cycling behind another ride can save up to 26 to 38 percent of energy. Unfortunately, running in the same direction doesn't necessarily make things any easier for you.
Keeping Your Numbers Accurate
Many devices are available to help you estimate your caloric expenditure during your exercise but, as we've discussed a very personalized approach is needed to keep things as accurate as possible. To that end, make sure to enter your correct age and weight into any equipment your on. Using included heart rate meters will also given the machine a good idea of how hard you're working and, subsequently, your fitness level.
Do you have any tricks to estimating your caloric expenditure? Please share them in comments.

As Elvis Dumervil gets used to his new No. 58 Ravens jersey, his new teammates and his new surroundings at the Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills, he has at least one familiar face to help his transition: the coach who helped Dumervil blossom into one of the league's best pass rushers.
Ravens inside linebackers coach Don "Wink" Martindale spent two years in Denver, as linebackers coach in 2009, and as defensive coordinator in 2010, before joining the Ravens last year.
Working under Martindale in 2009, Dumervil recorded a league-high 17 sacks. So it was fitting that when Dumervil was introduced to the Baltimore media on Tuesday after passing his physical and officially signing his contract to become a Raven, Martindale was by his side at the news conference.
" Obviously, Elvis and I got really close back in Denver, not just because of the player that he is – although that helps when he is sacking the quarterback – but also as a person," Martindale said. "I am happy for both the Ravens and Elvis because of what a class organization this is, what a great city it is."
Dumervil, was a fourth-round draft pick out of Louisville, a standout defensive end whose undersized frame for that position gave scouts pause. He's listed as 5-foot-11, 260 pounds by the Ravens, though Martindale joked that Dumervil is, "6 foot, all right? We've had that argument for years. Six foot."
On Tuesday, Dumervil credited Martindale with helping him make the transition from defensive end to outside linebacker, where he has thrived in the NFL, with three Pro Bowl selections and an average of more than 10 sacks per season.
" He helped me a lot in a really adverse situation, moving from defensive end to outside linebacker," Dumervil said of Martindale, "and he made that transition very smooth, and I learned a lot and soaked it up like a sponge."
Dumervil also credited Martindale with helping sell the Ravens to their newest linebacker, saying they had spoken throughout the free agency process, which began with that faulty fax machine, prompting the Broncos to release him rather than guarantee his $12 million salary for 2013.
Martindale said he is excited about being reunited with Dumervil and what he adds to the Ravens defense.
"There's no task too big for him," Martindale said. "Whatever you need him to do, he's going to do it. The thing that jumped out to me the most from our time in Denver. ... When you needed a big play … Elvis always seemed like the guy that made the play.
"When Elvis came out from Louisville," Martindale added, "he said, 'I'm the best pass rusher in the draft.' And all he's done, year in and year out, is he's tried to be the best pass rusher. Not to take away from any of the other great pass rushers in this league, but his numbers show you he's been really successful."

What would be an appropriate way for a national television channel to observe Christmas? One thing of which I am certain is that such an observance would not involve airing a message from the president of an Islamic terrorist theocracy whose most recent relations with your country involved the abduction in international waters of 15 members of your Navy and parading them on state television.
The UK's Channel 4 television has decided that a Christmastime message of international tolerance and goodwill would best be sent by turning the airwaves over to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He will deliver an "Alternative Christmas Message." Click here, if you have a strong stomach. One wonders whether Ahmadinejad will repeat what he said in 2005, after an Iranian convert to Christianity was abducted and stabbed to death in Iran: "I will stop Christianity in this country."
It wouldn't be surprising if after the passage of a few more years, Channel 4 television formalized its abject self-hatred and cowardice by inviting Ahmadinejad to stop Christianity in the UK, as well.

T3: I don't mind the $10/month fee, but I'm worried about what they'll do to the price after your 12 months is up. I just don't trust Adobe anymore. They'll jack up the price, and you'll be jacked in the process.
I'm currently using LR for 0$ a month, having paid £60 a little over 12 months ago. Sure, I'd get PS with this, but I don't actually want it or that clusterfuck that is Bridge.
wootpile: Should be the same sensor as in Nikon p7700 but these samples suck. Not a single crisp image.. Let's hope it is just another a case of Dpreview manhandling. (why post pre-samples taken without sample-value content?)
I like the styling Oly is using - angluar and tight.
If the IQ is better than the sucky samples seen, I can see this one being a very good macro machine for bugs
I genuinely don't understand, a lot of these images are pin sharp, especially the portraits.
I have noticed that my system sometimes shows images as blurred when I expand them (after waiting for them to load) but they then load properly after being closed and re-opened. Maybe people are seeing this? Because this is not a blurry camera.
ManuelVilardeMacedo: They both lack sharpness. I'm sorry for the people who think they'll make great shots with these expensive gadgets, but both of them are short on image quality. Yes, the 808 is better - at least if you can take your mind off the considerable levels of chromatic aberration -, but what's the point? For the price you'll be better off with an enthusiast compact camera like the Sony RX100.
Please, Manuel, tell me more about the "typical smartphone consumer". :D
vesa1tahti: Oly is from the past. Buy APS-C or FF- Nikons, and you are happy. Cheers.
I love how every comment is bookended by trolls talking complete bollocks. Olympus lenses, blurry? Hahaha! Go home.
massimogori: 1) The quality of the camera depends on the area of the sensor (corollary: IQ/surface is a constant for all sensors)
2) Any marketing effort made by anybody other than the maker of my own camera is a nonsense
3) The price of a camera I cannot afford or from another brand than my own camera is too high.
(...lots of experienced photographers, here...)
bok3h, I think you missed the intended sarcasm in massimogori's post. :)
fz750: I do wonder what the real market is for M4/3 and even for similar cameras like the Nex range. I live i a pretty touristy (Switzerland) place, so see people shooting lanscapes and buildings and stuff all the time, have been on various holidays or trips this year (europe, switzerland, austria, germany, uk, france and once in Israel) around, but I have **not once** seen a M4/3 (other than my own) or Nex, just canikon D-SLR basically, 98% APS-C but some D6/800 and Canon 6D (ignoring all the mass of compact cameras obviously)
I have a E-PL2, use it most of the time it seems (in preference to a canon Eos, despite missing a viewfinder..) and really like it, so am interested in smaller format camera like the OM-D but wonder who is buying all these M4/3 & Nex cameras?
I doubt my subjective sample is representative of total sales! perhaps they more prevalent in some markets?
The sad fact is that the people trolling in here about Full Frame are also the sort of people who stridently recommend DSLRs to people who don't need them. "Buy the Canikon with the expensive lens, then you can upgrade to Full Frame later for *list of irrelevant traits*".
So a lot of folks out there don't buy mirrorless because they don't know it exists, or get told by some gearhead with half a brain that they're inferior because *insert daft reason here*
Jogger: Id like to see a continuous series of photos with the 75/1.8 at 1.8 of a runner running towards the camera.. .or maybe the 35-100/2.8 at 2.8 and 100mm. Just spot focus on the bib number and fire away.
The CAF samples so far have not proven anything. Also, what is the point of 9fps without focus.. .when would you ever use that?
You're right, Jogger, you use bracketing mode - which incidentally operates at a 9fps speed without autofocus. Your photos are taken (exposure length permitting) in roughly 1/3 of a second instead of, say, 1 second at 3fps. Great for handheld HDR.
You also completely ignored the skater comment, which is a shame as that sort of speed is useful in any sort of blink-and-you'll-miss-it scenario. It's fairly a cheesy way of getting the shot but in the end it's still about getting the shot, not how you got it.
CortoPA: Its almost as good a camera as a Pentax K-5 IIs
Thanks for the trolling Plastek, but as a former Pentax owner I know from bitter experience that your statement is complete hogswash. M4/3 + 4/3 = >Pentax lens range. That's without getting into how using legacy MF Pentax lenses is easier on M4/3 than on Pentax's own cameras...
JerryKraut: Folks, may be I am getting old and may be some lenses (not the Long Toms I use a lot) have no manual focus ring anymore, but I never understood the fuss about AF. Who needs this feature, really? Press and sports photographers, OK, and blind people, who should not be taking pictures in the first place. All these people who send their lenses back and forth to have them serviced because of perceived front or back focus make me laugh. I remember an article in AP, I think it was, when Heather Angel said she only bought her first AF Nikon body, an F4, because of the superior metering and that she would not swap all her big glass for the new AF versions. I had a Dutchman ridicule me once for taking photos of a pack of timber wolves with an old manual telezoom lens. Pity I could not show him the best pictures I took that day. That would have shut him up.
I'm pleased for you that you can focus so well manually, that's wonderful - what does that have to do with anyone else? My eyes are such that it is impossible for me to ever get an accurately focused image via manual focusing through anything other than luck. But I guess I just shouldn't be taking photographs.
olyflyer: The focus is OK in the first sequence with the slow riders but in the second I would be worried with the AF ability.
In the second sequence the aperture is severely stopped down, everything from the nose of the horse to infinity is in focus. What would make me worried is the fact that nothing in front of the horse is in focus, so the rider is always on the edge of DOF. I think if the camera was set to use larger aperture then the rider would have been out of focus.
I tried to download the second sequence images but it seems that only the first image is downloadable, so my conclusion might be wrong, but it is not likely that it is different in the other images in terms of the used aperture and the very deep DOF.
The AF tuning abilities are really impressive but who else other than a very few diehard Oly fans have the time and knowledge to tune properly? No, in my opinion the AF tuning should be done by the factory, not the user. I would not be happy to have to do that tuning at home.
Thanks for the quick response Andy. Those examples are much more useful!
Raist3d: Well see how good (or not) the sensor in this camera is, a Panasonic new design. Hopefully no banding. If the sensor is ballpark as good (ditto if better) as the EM-5/Pen5, I just can't see anyone in their right mind picking a Pen 5 over this model.
The superior IBIS on the P5 might still sway me. I'm looking for a camera that will allow me to manual focus my 300mm mirror lens with some degree of accuracy; having a stabilised viewfinder would be a huge boon.
Based on preview shots elsewhere it's possible that the P5 still has the edge in image quality, too, but we'll have to wait to see final models for a proper judgement.
igorek7: What's up with an attitude in DPReview towards any new Panasonic MFT cameras? GH3, G6, GF6 and now GX7 got some rather negative pre-reviews w/o even seriously testing them. GX7 incorporates many features which so many people were asking for: build-in EVF in the left corner, sensor-shift "in-body" image stabilization, improved sensor, better grip, etc. Taking each feature separately, one may argue that "few of the GX7's specifications stand out as revolutionary", but incorporating all of the GX7's features in the compact user-friendly camera-design is outstanding.
"Overall, we like what we see."
Yes, very negative! :|
vetsmelter: "Nokia's second attempt at a 41-megapixel camera phone" ->
Ok the actual image size is only 38MPix but I think you should not call this an attempt since "attempt" is the action of trying at something.
What they aimed at is to use a large sensor's excess pixels to create a cleaner digital zoom and small 2, 5 or 8MP (808)
And while we are at the sensor: the first "attempt" had a larger sensor. The 808 measures 1/1.2" in size, and the 1020 has a 1/1.5" .
The price of making it thinner and cheaper I guess.
Photography wise, the only added value of the 1020 over the 808 is the shutter control.
808 over 1020:
Larger 1/1.2 sensor
ND Filter
Stronger flash
8MP supersample mode = best format on 808 in good light
Natural colour reproduction
MicroSD card expansion & swappable battery , like a self respecting cam
1020 over 808:
Better F2.2 lens (w/o ND filter!)
OIS & 6 elements lens (vs 5)
Dual image capture & newer algorithms
Configurable audio
Better camera UI?
Camera grip (Optional)
I'd argue that OIS has significant photographic value, too.
philinnz: horrible noisy images even in good light. It seems it must be difficult to hold the camera level so you would lose 10mp straightening and cropping. I think I got better results 12 years ago with my old kodak dc-280
Why must it be difficult? :/
jondh: Poor image quality. My Iphone4 gives me better image and sharper with its 5MP sensor
Given that the iPhone 5 in this test has worse image quality than the 1020 and a vastly superior camera system to your iPhone 4, I'm not entirely sure what you're smoking to come to that conclusion.
Fr3lncr: At full resolution it seems the shots aren't as nice as the S4 whereas at 5MP, it takes the edge. It still seems the super high MP is a bit more of a marketing gimmick than anything else, or at least more of a tool to get better lower resolution shots.
Would have been interesting to know other specs about the camera which affect usability like autofocus speed, autofocus accuracy, cycle time between shots... A high resolution camera is all fine and dandy but if you can't take a shot quick enough, its use is limited.
It's a tool to get the better low resolution shots. I'm not yet convinced that it's better than having a 5 or 8MP sensor with larger pixels would be, though.
This news just in: Critical hat shortage as thousands of miserly DPR comment thread grouches find themselves compelled to eat theirs.
I do wonder, though: now that we know this lens is both competitively priced and of a very high quality, what will be the next reason to criticise it out-of-hand?
igor_s: How often would you shoot at f1.8@18mm on APS-C or f2.8@24mm on FF? Strongest vignetting and aberrations, and what subject? On the longer end you can have prime 30mm f1.4 for half the price. Superior optical quality? Will see.
Enjoy eating that crow.
rfsIII: Imperial measurements were good enough for Queen Victoria and all the kings and queens before her, so they should be more than sufficient for DPReview. Please include inches in your reviews....we cannot be wasting our time doing mathematical conversions to indulge your Continental affectations.
Please don't think that the curmudgeon above represents Britain in the way that he seems to think he does. Some of us are happy with SI measurements that actually make sense. Unfortunately, thanks to the misplaced pride of berks like him we have to deal with this stupid halfway house where we buy petrol in litres and measure fuel economy in miles-per-gallon. If you can handle remembering how many yards there are in a mile and how many inches to the yard then you're more than capable of performing conversions to real units of measurement.
Lea5: If someone would enter my room with it, I would kick it from his face and smash it on the ground (many of my friends would do the same) I hope they ban this spy-glass in the EU. Enough spying through he NSA and British Intelligence, no other stuff like that needed.
I hope you'd at least have the decency to ask them to take it off first. Or are you merely looking for an excuse?

I've said this before. But OP, I would suggest you move on to reddit or some other site of the sort when posting these things, they will be more receptive. The majority of this site for some reason has an intolerance for anti-religious content, as if it higher than scrutiny.
I don't know why, but that's how it is. You can post something regarding a joke on 9/11, and get top page. But you will get torn apart if you make fun of the people on flew the plane for being Muslim. Doesn't make any sense to me either.
I'd just not bother trying to do what you're doing, because I have already tried with these people. And I say that without conceit.

9/11 jokes are merely jokes which people dont actually mean. atheist content is usually posted by butthurt atheists who find it difficult to cope with the fact that people believe differently from how they do
>But you will get torn apart if you make fun of the people on flew the plane for being Muslim.
you obviously dont browse this site during the countless number of times atheist faggotry makes its way to front page
#82 to #23 - thereoncewasaman (07/01/2013) [-]
So atheists are butthurt and can't deal with people believing differently, but you are the one coming around giving out red thumbs to people who disagree with you and posting comments that attempt to be intellectual or clever? Makes sense dude. If being frustrated with assholes and stupid people is considered being butthurt then I am butthurt as **** .

i wouldnt really say intolerance is the same as scrutiny
Reply-3#6 to #2 - thereoncewasaman (06/30/2013) [-]
Exactly it's pretty pathetic that people complain about how we question or persecute their beliefs but if you look at any anti-religious post it either has negative thumbs or all of the top comments are "quit being an asshole about your atheism". But I still like to post on this site anyway, there is always a few people who agree with the message.

as a christian, i will love and tolerate the **** out of you and bless your soul no matter how much you don't believe in them

I appreciate that you don't hate on people for not believing what you believe, but I don't want you to bless my soul; not because I want to spite you but I don't think it has any significance or effect. But my comment was more of an observation that there seems to be a disconnect between what many theists say is happening (that their beliefs are being persecuted) and what is happening (that they are persecuting others beliefs, or rather lack of belief). Of course its not everyone but it happens too much.

i see. in england, where my parents families emigrated to, there is a lot more tolerance, and if someone says anything it is usually sarcastic or to take the piss for a good laugh, which i very positive.

SPSUTeach students score summer internships
SPSUTeach students score summer internships
APRIL 22, 2013 – Two physics students enrolled in the SPSUTeach program have landed internships that will enhance their preparation to become science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) educators.
PhysicsQuest, a project of the American Physical Society (APS), selected Jamie Garrett to help teach physics concepts to middle school students who are registered in physical science courses by providing them with fun but educational tool kits. These free kits are also available to home school groups, science clubs and after-school programs.
Garrett, who will be developing extension activities to complete the core PhysicsQuest experiments and will also write teacher and student instructions for each activity credits her experiences with elementary- and middle-school students to date in the SPSUTeach program with setting her apart from other applicants for the PhysicsQuest internship.
"The UTeach program provided me with the background I needed to set myself apart from other applicants, and for that I am truly grateful," she said.
Meanwhile, Sam Parker has been chosen for an internship with the Georgia-based Southeastern Consortium for Minorities in Engineering (SECME), which strives to attract underserved and underrepresented minorities to the STEM fields.
This summer, SECME master teachers and interns will work with community members, educational institutions, educators and students in Daytona, Fla., to engage students in genuine learning experiences with STEM workshops.
SECME was established in 1975 by the engineering deans of six Southeastern universities to address the shortfalls in STEM talent in order to sustain an economy and the global leadership position that the United States enjoys. For more information on SECME, go to http://secmeinc.wix.com/secme

NRP Blotter
Allegany County – On November 5 at 9:45 p.m., the Maryland Natural Resources Police (NRP) charged Travis James Miller, 18, of Cumberland, Md. and Brady Aaron Hite, 18, of Ridgeley, WV, with casting rays of artificial light onto fields and woodland with a weapon in possession. The incident occurred in the area of Frostburg Industrial Park Road in Frostburg.
Garrett County – On November 5 at 10:05 p.m., NRP charged Timothy A. Wilhelm, 31, and Travis V. Wilhelm, 22, both of Barton, Md. and Larry R. Hook Jr., 23, of Paw Paw, WV, with casting rays of artificial light onto fields and woodland with a weapon in possession and hunting from a vehicle. Timothy Wilhelm was also charged with possessing a loaded weapon in a vehicle. Officers seized five rifles, two handheld spotlights, night vision goggles and ammunition as evidence. This incident occurred in the Russell Road area.
Dorchester County – On November 6 at 2 a.m., NRP charged Rene O. Pacheco, 29, and Edy N. Arias, 30, both of Riverdale, Md., Luis A. Rivera, 32, of Brentwood, Md. and Jose A. Hernandez, 41, of Manassas, Va., with possession of over limit striped bass, possession of undersize striped bass and possession of striped bass between midnight and 5 a.m. The Defendants were found with 58 striped bass over the limit ─ the legal limit is two per person─ 55 of those fish were under the legal size of 18 inches. The incident occurred on a vessel near the Ferry Bridge on the Honga River.
Allegany County – On November 8 at 6 p.m., NRP responded to Haystack Mountain, in the area of eastbound Interstate 68, to investigate a report of a hunting accident. Investigation revealed that Gary P. Conklin, 28, of Frederick, sustained non-life threatening injuries when he fell to the ground after he slipped while exiting his tree stand. Conklin had been bow hunting for deer and removed his safety harness before exiting the tree stand. He was transported to the Western Maryland Medical Center for his injuries.
Hunters are encouraged to employ a fall restrain system when hunting from elevated platforms. The system consists of a full body harness which stays attached to a prussic knot. The knot slides along a tethered line which is attached to the tree. This system remains connected during the entire time the person is in the tree. In the event of a fall, the prussic knots tights up and keeps the person from striking the ground. More information for hunting safety can be found at dnr.maryland.gov/nrp/treestand_tips.asp.

For Malkin, shootouts are personal. Despite possessing a skill set that most other NHL players only wish they could own, this is one aspect of his game that still needs work.
Malkin's initial shot went wide, prompting the ever-chatty Fleury to chirp a bit. Undeterred, Malkin returned to the far end, refocused, then mounted another rush, this time burying a wrist shot with such velocity that the puck ricocheted off the back of the net and streaked all the way to the blue line.
Finally satisfied with his work, Malkin banged his stick off the glass, partly out of celebration and partly out of frustration at missing his first attempt.
Call it a perfectionist at work. A perfectionist who is excelling once again in his craft. A star who is quickly regaining his status as a world-class athlete who can elevate an entire team with his singular play.
Center - PIT
"To me, that's just an indicator of him wanting to raise his level, him wanting to be in that spot and him having another focus and gear to his game," Bylsma said. "I think you've seen that right from training camp."
The Penguins are seeing it now with Sidney Crosby sidelined with concussion-type symptoms for the second time this season. They don't know when Crosby will be back, but they realize that if Malkin keeps playing with this single-mindedness and resolve, they will be replacing one superstar with another. And not many teams in major pro sports can do that.
"He's been great," goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury said. "With him, you knew the points would come."
Malkin, now 25, was at that same level three seasons ago while winning the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoffs MVP, the Art Ross Trophy as the NHL scoring champion and the Stanley Cup. Malkin outscored Crosby during the regular season, 113-103, and again during the playoffs, 36-31, during the Penguins' first championship season in 17 years.
That Malkin, the one who was capable of raising his game to whatever level was needed, wasn't quite so visible the last two seasons.
Garrison's offense an unexpected surpriseAlain Poupart - NHL.com Correspondent
After the team went out and overhauled its roster during the offseason, the third-year defenseman has provided the biggest surprise by scoring at a club record pace for first-place Florida. READ MORE ›
Unhappy that his 2010-11 season ended so soon, and displeased still with generating only 15 goals in 43 games, Malkin put himself through the most demanding offseason of his career. There was a slight setback when the right knee flared up in October, causing him to miss seven of the Penguins' first 10 games, but since then he has looked like … well, Evgeni Malkin.
Welcome back, Geno. In only a week's time, Malkin has vaulted from 20th place among the NHL scoring leaders into the top three after producing 3 goals and 5 assists in his last two games and 6 goals and 15 points in the six games since Crosby left the lineup.
With 39 points, Malkin trailed NHL leader Claude Giroux of Philadelphia by only four points going into Thursday night's games.
"I'm not thinking about points," Malkin said. "I'm trying to find my game. I lost a little bit of time with my knee and I started slow. But I feel a little bit better, and I'm just trying to find my level and continue to play better every game."
Malkin appears to be putting his offensive game into overdrive, just as he did when he piled up 14 goals and 36 points in 21 games when Crosby was out with a high ankle sprain in 2007-08.
"There's a lot to what Geno is doing this year that's more than just who he is playing with," Bylsma said, referring to current Malkin linemates Chris Kunitz and James Neal. "His determination coming into camp. His mindset. The confidence. The focus with which he's playing."
Even if it seems to push him harder when Crosby is out, Malkin said, "I'm not trying to think about that."
"I know Sid is a very important player for our team. Of course, I have a few more chances (on the power play), and I try to do my best -- and try to score in every game," he said.
Malkin is nearly doing that; he has at least a point in 21 of 27 games, with 13 multiple-point games. Only Crosby, who has been limited to eight games, and Giroux have a higher points-per-game average than Malkin's 1.44. And Malkin already has as many goals (15) in 27 games as he had in his 43 games last season.
Malkin enjoyed his seventh career hat trick during an 8-3 victory over Buffalo on Saturday, then assisted on all three goals in the first two periods as the Penguins ended Chicago's five-game winning streak by winning 3-2 on Tuesday.
"I think he's the best player on the ice through two periods," Bylsma said. "(He) dominated when he had the puck, and in a lot of different areas."
Pittsburgh's third goal, by a slumping Tyler Kennedy, also was manufactured in typical Malkin fashion.
"Geno won the faceoff and drove hard to the net, creating space for another guy, and TK scores a goal," Kunitz said. "It's unselfish plays that he makes that help our team every night."
Kunitz is in the enviable role of being a linemate to both Crosby and Malkin. He said there are numerous similarities despite the obvious differences in the games of what he calls "special players."
"Geno does a little more on-on-one. Sid's a guy who generates a whole lot of speed coming right through, blue line to blue line," Kunitz said. "Geno might turn back sometimes and make a play, like he did on our power-play goal (by Kunitz against Chicago). He was back by the d-man, (at) our blue line, and he made a seam pass to me coming across the blue line. Maybe it's a little more ad-libbing (than with Crosby)."
To Kunitz, there are three rules that any forward must abide by to play with Malkin.
"You've got to be prepared. You've got to have your stick down. And you've got to go to the net at all times," Kunitz said. "He's creative enough to beat two guys, come back and beat them again and then dish it off to the side. You just have to go to the tough areas of the ice, maybe try to draw someone away from him and, if a guy follows him, he's going to make a nice pass. And you've got to try to put it in."
The Penguins are 37-22-8 the last two seasons when Crosby doesn't play and have won their last two, a testament to Malkin's productivity even when his line -- not Crosby's -- is going against an opponent's top defensive line.
Malkin also is playing regularly against an opponent's best line, an assignment generally given in the past to Jordan Staal or Crosby.
"He's obviously playing his best hockey of the year the last handful of games and it's the time we need it," Kunitz said. "We've had some guys out of the lineup, for injury reasons, we haven't had our whole team. So it's nice that Geno, every time he's on the ice out there, is getting a goal."

GOTTCENT: Returning to former workplace after retiring can be humbling experience
In Thornton Wilder's "Our Town," one of the characters dies and then is offered a chance to return, as a ghost, to see what happens to her friends and family in her absence. Though warned not to do so, she does return, only to realize that life does indeed go on, that slowly but surely she is forgotten, that the world doesn't end with her demise.
Obviously, I haven't died yet, but I have retired, and I thought of Wilder's Emily when I recently returned to my former employer, the University of Southern Indiana.
It's been only six years since I left USI, an institution I'd served for 36 years, watching it grow from a one-building branch of Indiana State University to an independent academic home to more than 10,000 students.
When I started there in 1970, the entire faculty and staff could assemble in what is now the lobby of the administration building. It wasn't long before I knew everyone and everyone, it seemed, knew me.
When I left, in 2006, I could still tell students and visitors how to find any office, whom to seek out for the answer to any question, and whether or not the bookstore would be open on a Friday afternoon. I couldn't walk on campus, even on a weekend, without bumping into colleagues I knew on a first-name basis.
But when I drove out this summer to be photographed for a new ID, it was as if I'd blundered into "Our Town's" Grovers Corners.
First I had to negotiate a traffic circle that wasn't there six years ago. I had to discover that my department, English, which had been born in the old Science Center and then moved to the Liberal Arts building, had moved again, this time to the Orr Center. And I had to come face to face with the realization that what I had known as the library was now the east wing of the University Center.
Was the bookstore open that afternoon? I didn't even know where to go for lunch.
But most poignantly, I passed face after face that was totally unrecognizable, and no one seemed to know me either. I had to ask where to find the office where my photo would be snapped, and the nice woman who snapped it treated me like a stranger.
I passed door after door bearing titles, never mind names, that I couldn't identify. What in the world is the Office of Outreach and Engagement? How did the College of Education and Human Services pass into oblivion?
When I looked for the assistant provost who had just joined the faculty when I left, and whose search committee was the last group I served on at USI, I found that, a mere six years later, he already had moved on to other pastures.
I drove home, using the new University Parkway, and felt like a stranger in a strange land. For despite the French saying to the contrary, the more things change, the more different they become. Institutions, like people, evolve, and quickly, and those who leave can't expect to go home again.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (April 30)-The New Mexico State swimming and diving team celebrated the 2011-12 season with an awards banquet, April 29. The Aggies broke 10 school records and posted 12 NCAA 'B' cuts this year along with a top 20 ranking in the final Collegeswimming.com Mid-Major Poll.
"It is an important part of the process to celebrate our many accomplishments, say goodbye to our seniors and thank the ones who make our lives successful," head coach Rick Pratt said. "To look back and realize how far we have come gives us a great sense of pride and creates excitement for the future. We have come a long way in seven seasons, and I am proud of our group of ladies and our talented support staff."
Freshman Aliena Schmidtke was recognized as the outstanding swimmer of the year and newcomer of the year after she was the second Aggie to ever compete at the NCAA Championships this season. She qualified for the national meet after winning the 200 freestyle at the WAC Championships with a school-record showing of 1:46.38. Schmidtke also broke the program records in the 50 free (22.82) and 100 free (49.28) at the conference meet en route to earning WAC Freshman of the Year honors.
Senior Gina Palombit collected two honors, the Linda Schroeder Academic Award and lifter of the year award. Palombit and senior Brittney Moore were honored as this year's team captains, and junior Alex Fenton and sophomore Terrin Seaver were named co-captains for the upcoming 2012-13 season. Seaver also garnered the most improved award after breaking the school record in the 100 back. Fenton was honored with the coaches' award. Senior Carly Smith was named the outstanding diver after a final season on the springboards that included a top eight finish at the WAC meet on the 3-meter board.
The Aggies also honored their six seniors, Rachelle Bassen, Moore, Palombit, Ana Smith, Carly Smith and Maria Spies. Bassen was a top distance freestyle specialist for the Crimson and White. She scored at the WAC Championships with a 12th-place finish. Moore concluded her Aggie career at the conference meet and scored in three events (500 free, 1,650 free and 400 individual medley) to help NM State capture fourth place. Palombit, a freestyle specialist, completed her collegiate career with top 20 finishes at the WAC meet in the 50 free and 100 breaststroke.
Ana Smith graduates in May and leaves the Aggies as the school record holder in both the 1,000 free (10:10.79) and 1,650 free (16:51.00). Spies ended her time in Las Cruces as the first Aggie to compete at the NCAA Championships in 2009, and she holds both the 100 breast (1:00.98) and 200 breast (2:12.02) program records. Carly Smith spent only two seasons with the Aggies, but she made an impact and scored at the conference meet both years.

Rethinking Cold War Culture
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
moreThis anthology of essays questions many widespread assumptions about the culture of postwar America. Illuminating the origins and development of the many threads that constituted American culture during the Cold War, the contributors challenge the existence of a monolithic culture during the 1950s and thereafter. They demonstrate instead that there was more to American society than conformity, political conservatism, consumerism, and middle-class values.
By examining popular culture, politics, economics, gender relations, and civil rights, the contributors contend that, while there was little fundamentally new about American culture in the Cold War era, the Cold War shaped and distorted virtually every aspect of American life. Interacting with long-term historical trends related to demographics, technological change, and economic cycles, four new elements dramatically influenced American politics and culture: the threat of nuclear annihilation, the use of surrogate and covert warfare, the intensification of anticommunist ideology, and the rise of a powerful military-industrial complex.
This provocative dialogue by leading historians promises to reshape readers' understanding of America during the Cold War, revealing a complex interplay of historical norms and political influences. less

Ebola, also known as Ebola virus disease, is one of numerous Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers. Ebola is caused by a virus and is a severe, often fatal disease in humans and animals, such as bats, monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees. More
The 2014-2015 Ebola outbreak is the largest Ebola outbreak in history and the first in West Africa. Currently, there is widespread transmission in two countries in West Africa: Guinea and Sierra Leone. Liberia, Mali, Nigeria, and Senegal have also reported cases but these countries do not have widespread transmission and are now Ebola free. CDC is working with other U.S. government agencies, the World Health Organization (WHO), and other domestic and international partners in an international response to the current Ebola outbreak in West Africa.
Since the summer of 2014, a small number of U.S. healthcare workers who were infected with Ebola virus in West Africa later recovered after being transported to hospitals in the United States for treatment. On September 30, 2014, CDC confirmed the first travel-associated case of Ebola to be diagnosed in the United States, involving a patient who traveled from Liberia to Dallas, Texas and passed away on October 8. Subsequently, two healthcare workers who provided care for the Dallas patient tested positive for Ebola and fully recovered.
All travelers to regions with reported Ebola outbreaks should consult CDC travel advisories before traveling and follow CDC recommendations for precautions.
The CDC also continues to provide updated guidance for healthcare providers working in facilities in the U.S. and in Africa.
People who come in direct physical contact with the bodily fluids of a live or deceased person or animal who is sick with, or who has died from, the Ebola virus are at risk of getting infected. Healthcare workers and the family and friends in close contact with Ebola patients are at the highest risk of getting sick because they are most likely to come in contact with infected blood or body fluids while caring for those with Ebola. More
Ebola only spreads when people are having symptoms of the disease. Symptoms usually begin suddenly 2 to 21 days after exposure, although 8-10 days is most common. Some people who become sick with Ebola are able to recover with the proper care, which includes fluid replacement and close monitoring by trained medical staff.
Symptoms of Ebola may include:
Ebola is a virus that is spread through direct contact with the bodily fluids (blood, vomit, feces, urine, saliva, breast milk, sweat, semen) of someone who is sick with Ebola symptoms, or who has died from Ebola. Virus in these fluids can enter the body through hand to mouth contact, rubbing your eyes, nose or mouth after coming in contact with any bodily fluids, or through sexual contact. A person infected with Ebola virus is not contagious until symptoms appear.
People can also get infected by handling objects carrying the virus, such as healthcare workers who accidentally get stuck while handling a dirty needle, or hunters, cooks, and others who handle or eat bush meat from animals found in West Africa that have been infected (such as monkeys, bats, forest antelope, chimpanzees, and gorillas). More
Ebola is not spread through: casual contact, air, water, or food grown or legally purchased in the United States. Household pets are not at significant risk in the U.S.
In Rhode Island, prevention guidance and recommended precautions are available for:
If a person has the early symptoms of Ebola and there is reason to believe that Ebola is a possibility (for example, the patient recently returned from travel to a region with an Ebola outbreak, and/or had close contact with an Ebola patient), then the following procedures are followed:
Ebola does not have a known, proven treatment. Supportive care occurs in a maximum infection control setting and is limited to treating the symptoms as they appear. Trained healthcare professionals provide care to balance fluids and electrolytes, maintain oxygen and blood pressure, and treat for any complicating infections. Treatments are in development by several companies, but are not are not widely available because they have not yet gone through the standard FDA approval process, which involves important tests for safety and effectiveness. During this current outbreak, the FDA has advised consumers to be aware of products sold online claiming to prevent or treat the Ebola virus.
Timely medical care for those with Ebola symptoms is important. If a person develops symptoms of Ebola and has recently traveled to one of the affected countries or has had contact with an Ebola patient, the person should call 9-1-1 for transport to a hospital emergency room. Tell the front desk staff, nurse, and doctor about all symptoms and any risk factors, especially recent travel to one of the affected countries. More

It is common knowledge that the fresher the food, the more expensive the cost. When new federal guidelines required schools to increase the servings of fruits and vegetables and whole grains, many wondered how they will pay for it.
An extra six cents will be reimbursed for the number of meals that meets the new regulations, but the question is whether the six cents enough?
Some of the smaller, more rural districts may have a hard time financing the guidelines. Macks Creek Foodservice director, Amber Shofner, is unsure if the six cents is going to cut it. "We will have to see how it goes as it comes," she said. Shofner seems leery of it actually being beneficial, but she knows that the regulations must be met. "There is no way to work around it," she added. So far, she said the regulations simply add stress and more paperwork.
Shawndra Taylor, Eldon Foodservice director, seems optimistic about the reimbursement. "Obviously fresh fruits and vegetables are higher. It is going to help," she said of the reimbursement. The Eldon school district has been implementing the new guidelines slowly over the past few years. "We tried to make strides toward that [new guidelines] to get kids used to it," Taylor said. For her, it is all about feeding the kids a healthy meal no matter the cost.
The new regulations are focused on serving sizes. The amount of fruits, vegetables and whole grains are increased by grades. The amount of meat is decreasing. Therefore, the districts will be paying more for fruits and vegetables, but less for meat. "I think in the end, it will balance out," Taylor said.

(ABC 6 News) -- Businesses everywhere are using social media to help out their business, and the popularity of using things like facebook and twitter is growing. One local woman is getting in on the trend, and taking to the web to promote her crochet business.
Dick and Rosie Hagelund have been married for nearly 44 years... But Dick isn't the only love in Rosie's life. She also loves to crochet.
"I always said that when I leave this life, my crochet hook and skein of yarn needs to go with me," said Rosie.
It started about 35 years ago, as a way to make some extra cash on the side. Now, Rosie's crocheting has grown into a booming home business.
"Its been just one thing after another, always thinking of things to create. My hands are always busy," she said.
Now, with the help of Dick and facebook, Rosie is busier than ever.
"I thought, well, lets put your stuff on facebook and just see what kind of reactions we get. We've gotten excellent reactions," said Dick.
"I still don't use the computer as much as he does. He's my promoter," said Rosie.
"As her promoter and manager, you know, I want a raise," joked Dick.
With the orders pouring in, there's no doubt that Rosie won't be taking a break any time soon.
"I'm very proud of what she does. I'm proud of her, and what she does," said Dick.
"It's been one thing after another. And it's been a great trip," said Rosie.
Rosie says crocheting is a form of therapy for her. She was diagnosed with MS about thirty years ago. If you're interested in Rosie's crocheting, you can contact her: 641-832-8632 or email@example.com

- Hadronic freeze-out following a first order hadronization phase transition in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions (1999)
- We analyze the hadronic freeze-out in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC in a transport approach which combines hydrodynamics for the early, dense, deconfined stage of the reaction with a microscopic non-equilibrium model for the later hadronic stage at which the hydrodynamic equilibrium assumptions are not valid. With this ansatz we are able to self-consistently calculate the freeze-out of the system and determine space-time hypersurfaces for individual hadron species. The space-time domains of the freeze-out for several hadron species are found to be actually four-dimensional, and di er drastically for the individual hadrons species. Freeze-out radii distributions are similar in width for most hadron species, even though the is found to be emitted rather close to the phase boundary and shows the smallest freeze- out radii and times among all baryon species. The total lifetime of the system does not change by more than 10% when going from SPS to RHIC energies.
- Nucleus-nucleus collisions at highest energies (1996)
- The microscopic phasespace approach URQMD is used to investigate the stopping power and particle production in heavy systems at SPS and RHIC energies. We find no gap in the baryon rapidity distribution even at RHIC. For CERN energies URQMD shows a pile up of baryons and a supression of multi-nucleon clusters at midrapidity.
- Fluctuations and inhomogenities of energy density and isospin in Pb + Pb at the SPS (1998)
- The main goal of heavy ion physics in the last fifteen years has been the search for the quark-gluon-plasma(QGP). Until now, unambigous experimental evidence for the QGP is missing.
- Distinguishing hadronic cascades from hydrodynamic models in Pb(160 AGeV)+Pb reactions by impact parameter variation (1998)
- We propose to study the impact parameter dependence of the anti-Lambda/anti-Proton ratio in Pb(160AGeV)+Pb reactions. The anti-Lambda/anti-Proton ratio is a sensible tool to distinguish between hadronic cascade models and hydrodynamical models, which incorporate a QGP phase transition.
- "Soft'' transverse expansion and flow in a multi-fluid model without phase transition (1997)
- Abstract: We study transverse expansion and directed flow in Au(11AGeV)Au reactions within a multi-fluid dynamical model. Although we do not employ an equation of state (EoS) with a first order phase transition, we find a slow increase of the transverse velocities of the nucleons with time. A similar behaviour can be observed for the directed nucleon flow. This is due to non-equilibrium e ects which also lead to less and slower conversion of longitudinal into transverse momentum. We also show that the proton rapidity distribution at CERN energies, as calculated within this model, agrees well with the preliminary NA44-data.
- Nonequilibrium fluid-dynamics in the early stage of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions (1997)
- To describe ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions we construct a three-fluid hydrodynamical model. In contrast to one-fluid hydrodynamics, it accounts for the finite stopping power of nuclear matter, i.e. for nonequilibrium e ects in the early stage of the reaction. Within this model, we study baryon dynamics in the BNL-AGS energy range. For the system Au+Au we find that kinetic equilibrium between projectile and target nucleons is established only after a time teq CM H 5 fm/c C 2RAu/³CM. Observables which are sensitive to the early stage of the collision (like e.g. nucleon flow) therefore di er considerably from those calculated in the one-fluid model.
- "Pressure equilibration" in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions (1997)
- We study the time scale for pressure equilibration in heavy ion collisions at AGS energies within the three-fluid hydrodynamical model and a microscopic cascade model (UrQMD). We find that kinetic equilibrium is reached in both models after a time of 5 fm/c (center-of-mass time). Thus, observables which are sensitive to the early stage of the reaction differ considerably from the expectations within the instant thermalization scenario (one-fluid hydrodynamical model).
- The directed flow maximum near c(s) = 0 (2000)
- We investigate the excitation function of quark-gluon plasma formation and of directed in-plane flow of nucleons in the energy range of the BNLAGS and for the Ekin Lab = 40A GeV Pb+Pb collisions performed recently at the CERN-SPS. We employ the three-fluid model with dynamical unification of kinetically equilibrated fluid elements. Within our model with first-order phase transition at high density, droplets of QGP coexisting with hadronic matter are produced already at BNL-AGS energies, Ekin Lab C 10A GeV. A substantial decrease of the isentropic velocity of sound, however, requires higher energies, Ekin Lab C 40A GeV. We show the e ect on the flow of nucleons in the reaction plane. According to our model calculations, kinematic requirements and EoS effects work hand-in-hand at Ekin Lab = 40A GeV to allow the observation of the dropping velocity of sound via an increase of the directed flow around midrapidity as compared to top BNL-AGS energy.
- Impact parameter dependencies in Pb(160 AGeV)+Pb reactions : hydrodynamical vs. cascade calculations (1999)
- We investigate the impact parameter dependence of the specific entropy S/A in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Especially the anti-Lambda/anti-proton ratio is found to be a useful tool to distinguish between chemical equilibrium assumptions assumed in hydrodynamics (here: the 3-fluid model) and the chemical non-equilibrium scenario like in microscopic models as the UrQMD model.
- Antiflow of nucleons at the softest point of the EoS (1999)
- Report-no: UFTP-492/1999 Journal-ref: Phys.Rev. C61 (2000) 024909 We investigate flow in semi-peripheral nuclear collisions at AGS and SPS energies within macroscopic as well as microscopic transport models. The hot and dense zone assumes the shape of an ellipsoid which is tilted by an angle Theta with respect to the beam axis. If matter is close to the softest point of the equation of state, this ellipsoid expands predominantly orthogonal to the direction given by Theta. This antiflow component is responsible for the previously predicted reduction of the directed transverse momentum around the softest point of the equation of state.

The national newspapers' views on Norwich City's 0-0 draw at home to Fulham.
Sunday Mirror: "This was a must-win match for City who, after such a great start to the campaign (sic), look like they might get sucked into the relegation battle."
The Mail on Sunday: "A point apiece more or less suited the two teams . . . it might have been more merciful had they agreed at lunchtime to share the spoils and then stayed in their dressing rooms."
The Observer: "Norwich have scored only once in their past six league and FA Cup games. However, Hughton was upbeat about his team's chances of staying up."
The Sunday Telegraph: "Norwich's habit of drawing blanks has dragged them down into a position where they cannot be entirely confident of safety."
The Independent: "One goal in six matches in all competitions is clearly a concern, although there was encouragement from Luciano Becchio and Kei Kamara."

Were you a witness or victim of an alleged robbery attempt in Plymouth city centre?
Posted: January 08, 2014|
POLICE are investigating two cases of alleged attempted robbery which took place in the same stretch of road.
Both incidents allegedly took place around 10.30pm on January 7 in Royal Parade in the city centre.
Two victims, a man, aged in his 30's and an 18-year-old woman said they were approached separately by two men who demanded money from them.
Police said the men were described as being aggressive and threatening but neither victim handed over any money.
It is believed there were a number of people in the area at the time who may have either witnessed the incidents or even may have been approached by these two men.
Police want to hear from anyone who was in the area around the time noted. If you can assist police contact them on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 quoting crime reference number EC/14/190.
* A 40-year-old man and a 19-year-old man were arrested in connection with this incident and have been released on bail until March 5 pending further inquiries.
