PENTAGON (AP) - The Pentagon says both the Army and Marine Corps
reported sharp increases in post-traumatic stress disorder last
The Army says it had more than 10,000 new cases -- an increase
of some 3,200. The Marines report a total of more than 2,100 new
cases last year, compared to about 1,400 the year before.
The Pentagon says almost 40,000 PTSD cases have been diagnosed
since 2003. But it's believed the actual number could be twice that
because troops keep problems to themselves out of embarrassment or
concern about their careers.
Some troops, at the encouragement of the military, are being
treated privately.
The rise in PTSD cases is blamed partly on increased exposure to
combat as troops do third and fourth tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Audra McDonald, Tony Awards Winner and Private Practice Actress, Opens Up About Past Suicide Attempt During College
Six-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald—also known for her work on the ABC series Private Practice—recently opened up about her suicide attempt in college during an episode of Popcorn with Peter Travers.
PHOTOS: Celebrity health scares
"When I was at Juilliard, I had a suicide attempt," the 44-year-old actress said. "I have to say they were very supportive. [Juilliard] put me into a facility—I tried to slit my wrists." (The actress did not give any further information.)
PHOTOS: Tonys 2014 -- what the stars wore
McDonald checked into a mental health hospital after the incident for a month and was told she could return to Juilliard to finish her program when she was ready.
PHOTOS: Celebrity rehab centers
"When someone is suicidal, one of the first things you have to do is to protect them from themselves, and that's what they did," she explained. "They had me on medication to help me in terms of antidepressants."
But before McDonald stepped back into the prestigious school, she was given an opportunity to work in a national tour for Secret Garden. Juilliard told her to first take the offer, noting she seems "happiest" in musical theatre. She eventually went back and graduated in 1993.
PHOTOS: Stars who've battled mental health issues
McDonald made Broadway history last month when she won her sixth Tony Award for acting, more than any other performer. She was recognized in the Best Leading Actress in a Musical category for her portrayal as Billie Holiday in Lady Day at Emerson's Bar & Grill.

Roma sporting director Walter Sabatini says the club have yet to decide what to do during the January transfer session.
"We're not thinking about new signings," Sabatini told Sky Sport Italia. "We'll meet with boss Rudi Garcia during the Christmas break.
"We'll evaluate a number of situations and then we'll think about how we should move.
"Our monitoring of players is continuous and it would be nice to sign players of an excellent level, but there are a number of aspects that we have to look at."
The capital giants started the season with a record 10 straight wins, but they have drawn their last three which has allowed Juventus to take leadership in Serie A.
"There is a bit of disappointment, but not amongst the directors," Sabatini continued. "We would have lost a game like Monday's against Cagliari last season…
"You need to accept these results because Cagliari are a competitive side who can hit you in a number of ways."
Roma have recently been linked with a loan swoop for Paris Saint-Germain's Javier Pastore.

Duluth, Ga. (January 16, 2014) – Gwinnett Medical Center (GMC)-Duluth recently announced a gift from the Gwinnett Sports Commission benefitting Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC). With the gift, an athletic transporter will be purchased so that injured athletes can be moved safely and securely from the field.
Gwinnett Medical Center–Duluth was recently recognized by Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal for its innovative Concussion Institute—one of only three such centers in the country and the only one of its kind in Georgia.
Gwinnett Medical Center (GMC) announced a new partnership between its Sports Medicine Program and Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC) that will provide a high level of care to GGC's athletes.
JOHNS CREEK, Ga.—Research from the University of Pittsburgh has revamped concussion policies at Johns Creek High School and Chattahoochee High School.
In the past, a player afflicted with a concussion would typically sit out a week if it was their first concussion, then two weeks for their second concussion and two to three weeks for their third, said Dr. Mathew Pombo, team physician for the two schools. People were not aware the effects of a concussion could last four to six weeks, if not longer.
Gwinnett Medical Center will offer a one-day clinic on injury prevention in youth baseball on Saturday, Jan. 15, 2011, from 8:15 a.m. – 3 p.m. at Coolray Field. Presenters include T.

When you look at some of the past problems of the Seattle Police Department, there are some striking similarities to what has been seen in Albuquerque.
In 2010, a Seattle detective was caught on video stomping a hipanic man's hand while yelling, "I'm going to beat the f***ing Mexican piss out of you honey. You feel me?" The man sued and the city settled out of court for $150,000.
Also in 2010, a Seattle officer shot and killed a Native American woodcarver for having a knife on the street. The shooting was determined to be unjustified because the man had a knife in one hand and a woodcarving in the other. The officer shot the man seven seconds after approaching him even though the man did not threaten anybody with the knife.
Recently, a video surface showing an officer punching a woman in the face.
The DOJ concluded officers unjustifiably used batons and flashlights as weapons.
Officers used excessive force on people who were already restrained.
Multiple officers would use excessive force on a single person.
Officers used more excessive force to people of color.
The police department has poor policies, supervision, and training related to use of force.
Once the investigation was over, the DOJ sued the city. 4 On Your Side dug up the court documents that show the DOJ ordered the Seattle Police department to adopt and implement new policies and procedures and improve supervision at the scenes where lethal force is used. An independent commission was set up to oversee the changes.

Softball Hillcats Take Two on the Road
Rogers State completed a perfect week with two road victories over Northwestern Oklahoma State in Alva on Wednesday.
Randi Tyler singled home Bridgett Stewart in the top of the fourth inning of Game 1 to give the Hillcats a 1-0 advantage. RSU added two more runs in the fifth. Megan Wood started the inning with a single and Denise Garcia followed with a single up the middle. Taylor Whisenhunt chased Wood home with an RBI ground-out and Stewart roped an RBI single to score Garcia. The Hillcats would add two more runs in the sixth and took a 5-0 lead into the bottom of the seventh.
The Rangers scored their lone run of the day when Tanya Parker was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded in the seventh to break up the shutout. Relief pitcher Stephanie Eggers induced the next hitter into a harmless fly out to end the threat and preserve the win, 5-1. Kelli Dunagan (11-4) earned the win with five scoreless innings. She scattered three hits while striking out four. Garcia paced the Hillcats offensively with her second 3-for-4 performance in as many games.
RSU scrapped across two early runs in Game 2 and held on for a 2-0 victory behind a strong pitching performance from Eggers. Dunagan and Stewart laced back-to-back singles to start the Hillcat second inning. An RBI ground-out by Sydni Jones scored Dunagan and gave RSU the only run it would need in the contest. Dunagan doubled in the fourth and trotted home on a sacrifice fly by Stewart to give the Hillcats an insurance run in the fourth. Eggers (8-4) went the distance, allowing just four hits and one walk over seven innings of work. Dunagan and Stewart combined to go 5-for-5 with an RBI and two runs scored in the nightcap.
Coach Dawn Reed's club improved to 19-8 with the sweep and will take the rest of the week off before facing Oklahoma Christian on Tuesday, April 10. The Hillcats will return home on Thursday, April 12, to host Oklahoma Baptist at the Hillcat Complex. First pitch is slated for 1 p.m.

MDA's Weekly Strawberry Pest Sampling Data
PLEASE NOTE: There will be no Newsletter next week. Have a GREAT 4th of July!

Vegetable Insect Pest Update
Eric Burkness and Bill Hutchison, University of Minnesota
At the end of last week, the first striped cucumber beetles (SCB) of the season were found in a pumpkin field near UMORE Park in Rosemount, MN. Pumpkins were at 2 true leaves and there were 0.5 SCB/plant, mainly limited to the edge of the field. This week populations have exploded and pumpkin fields near UMORE Park are anywhere from 2 SCB/plant to greater than 5 SCB/plant. The high for one of the fields was 54 SCB on a single plant. The plants were anywhere from 4 – 7 true leaves and this infestation level is certainly one that would require treatment (see the SCB profile for thresholds and management options).
Snap beans have remained relatively pest free this season as well. However, low potato leafhopper (PLH) and bean leaf beetle (BLB) infestations have finally been detected in snap beans. Snap beans that were at the flower bud stage to open flower had infestations of 0.16 PLH / sweep, well below the treatment threshold of 1/sweep. BLB was at 0.04/sweep. Younger snap beans at the 1 – 2 trifoliate stage were not infested with PLH or BLB.
European corn borer (ECB) is finally being caught with some regularity in black light traps in the state but at low levels (see Figure 1). As of June 23, we are at 602 degree days (base 50°F). The average degree day requirement to reach the peak of the first generation ECB moth flight is at 631, so the peak ECB flight should have occurred sometime this past week. We'll have to wait and see what impact the early season conditions have had on the second generation ECB flight. Cooperators in MN using pheromone traps to monitor corn earworm (CEW) have started catching and reporting trap catches (see Figure 2). However, this early season CEW activity is typically much lighter than the mid August activity and and it is unlikely there are many sweet corn fields that are highly attractive, in terms of late whorl to silking plants.

Amazing lamb chops but very small portion! Everything is excellent... I loved the peking duck & beef tartare appetizers. Very fun interior.
Posted by Wendy on 03/18/2006
Can't say enough great things about Buddakan. Service- top notch. Food- out of this world. Nothing was truly overpriced for the quality of the food. Couldn't wait for the next mouthful. Recommended dishes (and we tried alot!): edamame dumplings were my absolute favorite, crab dumplings with soy truffle oil, snapper entree, and tofu with cashews. Loved that the sauces on each dish were not too heavy, yet you were completely satisfied. Nothing was too salty- as most modern chinese is. The space is phenomenal with ample tables. Decor is fantastic- only downfall was that the women's restrooms did not have traditional mirrors. I carry a pocket one anyway, so didn't ruin my night. Definitely take a loved one or a gaggle of friends. This place is the new "it" spot.
Posted by Robbie on 03/16/2006
This place was the best restaurant I've visited in a long time. First, the service here was fantastic, not pretentious at all (like I expected). I actually felt like I was at a 5-star hotel because everyone was overly nice. The host sat us without a reservation after a 15 minutes wait. The waiter was very patient and helpful. The food was amazing. I liked the appetizers much more than the entrées, but that's not to say the entrées were bad in any way. I enjoyed the tuna roll appetizer, edamame dumplings and the lamb entree. I went to Buddakan in Philly and the NY location is MUCH better. Good job Steve.

Peaks to Portland swim organizers dive into history
PORTLAND — The annual Peaks to Portland swim is a long-running city tradition, but many may not know that it's been happening far longer than 32 years.
With this year's swim in Casco Bay coming up Saturday, organizers are trying to shed light on the event's history, which goes as far back as the 1920s.
The problem is, there isn't much historical evidence, said Helen Brena, chief executive officer of the YMCA of Southern Maine. There are only one or two known photos and a few news clippings, she said, but not much else.
So Brena said the YMCA is looking for photos, memorabilia and published stories about past swims to piece together "a true historical perspective."
"Because it's a piece of Portland, and Portland's history," she said.
The YMCA has been organizing the swim that begins on Peaks Island and finishes at East End Beach since it was revived in the 1980s.
Two years ago, Brena said, when the Y celebrated its 30th year with the event, the group began thinking of ways to better tell its story, along with emphasizing the swim's cultural and historical connections to the city.
She said the Y wants to tell the stories of people who have been involved with Peaks to Portland over the last nearly 100 years.
"If I tell you that I get scared to death every year I do the swim, that is more impactful and I think it paints a more vivid picture of what it is about," Brena said. "So if we get people's stories from as far back as we can, we can paint a very vivid picture of what Peaks to Portland has meant to the community over the years."
She said those who wish to share photos, memorabilia and stories with the YMCA can contact the group's aquatics director, Terry Swaim, at its Portland office. She can be reached by e-mail at email@example.com, by phone at 874-1111 or by mail at 70 Forest Ave., Portland ME 04101.
The Peaks to Portland swim is expected to raise $70,000 in net proceeds this year, with 400 participating swimmers, Brena said. The 2.4-mile swim begins on Peaks Island at 9 a.m. Saturday.

BMW insider Scott26 places the next generation F32/F33 M3′s power at approximately 450 PS, with room to be bumped up later. More extreme M3 variants will also likely be in the works, such as the possible return of an M3 CSL.
Feast your eyes and ears on the very first video of the recently spied high performance E92 M3 (CSL or GT4 street version racecar?) !!
With the E46 M3 CSL, people have been given a look into what BMW could do when it turned its direction towards lightweight and efficiency over the base M3.
With the introduction of the E92, many of you may remember all the buzz and talk about a possible E92M3 CSL. Remember the red test car?
BMW a year later shot down those rumors of a CSL and ruled the car out. However, today MotorAuthority … CONTINUED

HUNTSVILLE - Security at the West Hill Mall in Huntsville detained an alleged shoplifter who turned out to be a capital murder suspect out of Houston.
Anthony Johnson, 22, was stopped by security and a concerned citizen outside the mall when they believed he had taken clothing from a store, according to Huntsville Police. However, it was learned that Johnson had a capital murder warrant from the Houston Police Department.
According to Crime Stoppers of Houston, 35-year-old Jawon Carson was shot in his home and his body was found in December under a bridge. Investigators connected Johnson to the murder.
Johnson also is accused of having stolen property in his vehicle from the Huntsville area. He is charged with theft, possession of a stolen firearm, unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, failure to identify, and public intoxication, all in addition to the capital murder charge.
A second person was arrested at the time Johnson was taken into custody. Darkeis Cartwright, 23, faces charges of possession of illegal smoking product, possession of drug paraphernalia and public intoxication.
Huntsville PD says they are working with Houston PD and other area agencies to see if Johnson had additional stolen property.

Unlimited potential? Hearing loss in the workplace
Unlimited potential? Hearing loss in the workplace
According to 'Unlimited Potential?' a recently published report, some people with hearing loss were forced to resign, retire early or made redundant.
The report published by Action on hearing loss, researched the experiences of people with hearing loss in the workplace.
The research showed that people can be fearful that if their hearing deteriorates further, they will be unable to do their job well or even that they will lose their job. Other key findings include:
- An organisation's values and beliefs influence what adjustments are made and the way that managers and colleagues react.
- Human resources and occupational health teams generally did not consider what adjustments were needed to help support the person with hearing loss to continue in their role.
- In general, managers were broadly supportive but they were only likely to take action or make adjustments when requested and often not promptly.
The report's author, Laura Matthews, has suggested solutions, which include:
- For organsiations
Establishing a culture that values and supports people with disabilities will ensure that people with hearing loss are able and willing to stay in their roll.
- For line managers:
Line manager must take responsibility for encouraging a supportive environment within their team and ensuring that effective adjustments are made.
- For government:
Government must play a role in improving the experience that people with hearing loss have in the workplace including through raising awareness of the support currently available, such as Access to Work (AtW), as well as legal rights and responsibilities under the Equality Act.
- For manufacturers:
Manufacturers of equipment for people with hearing loss should consult with them in order to design a range of products that are both functional and attractive to everybody.

Couples Therapy: Ghostface Drops A Bomb On Kelsey
After meeting with Dr. Jenn during an individual session, Ghostface shocks Kelsey by revealing that while the two of them have been in a relationship, he has been dating another woman. Kelsey is clearly heartbroken learning that her man has been unfaithful. To make matters worse, Ghostface tells Kelsey that he wants the three of them to get together for a session so that he can figure out which woman he wants to continue in a relationship with. Upon this request, Kelsey leaves the room in disbelief. We cannot imagine the thoughts going through Kelsey's head at this time knowing how strong her feelings were for Ghostface. How will this meeting with the other woman go? We're sure we'll learn the answer to that question and many more in the upcoming weeks.

Random stuff
Okay, peeve. What is with people driving in school zones? I should refine that with, what is with PARENTS driving in school zones?? Seriously, some of the worst driving I've ever seen has been in the school zone at Ayden's preschool, which is located in an elementary school. When it is drop off time at 8:45, people speed through the zone at 60-70 Kph, sometimes the worst offenders are DUMP trucks...child pedestrian vs. dump truck: who do YOU think will win? People park illegally. People merge back into traffic without signalling or shoulder checking. People don't stop at the crosswalk. People angle park to drop their kids off, ACROSS THE SIDEWALK, and then have to back into traffic to get back on the road. People park across the street from the school and encourage their kids to dash across the street half a block from the marked crosswalk (this happens more often at pickup time in the afternoon). People drive too slowly. People talk on their phones while driving through the school parking lot. People don't signal their intentions to pull over, off to the side. People stop dead in the middle of the driveway without pulling over, blocking traffic behind them, and sit there while a ridiculous number of kids pile out of their back seat.
Good grief! Basic rules, people: drive 30 in a school zone, signal and shoulder check, and take the time to go in the school driveway to drop your kids off safely. Even better? Walk your kids to school (hello, I'm guilty; it would take us 3 or 4 hours to walk to Ayden's school one way). Lots of people do, but lots don't. I wonder what happened to school buses? When I was little, I took the bus.
okay, hunting for infant car seat. This brings to mind one of those issues that is close to my heart (and line of work). Car seat safety. I can't tell you how much it breaks my heart to see kids standing up in backseats, or sitting on a parent's lap, or using an adult-sized seat belt when clearly not appropriate. The #1 way children are accidentally killed or injured in Canada is in incidents involving vehicles, (crashes or pedestrian vs. vehicle) so it would be prudent of us to take every precaution with regards to vehicle safety. Most parents know that car seat safety is very important, and that ICBC claims 8/10 car seats are installed incorrectly. My beef with this is that alongside this should come a public service announcement listing of 'common mistakes' made in carseat installation or use!! Some common mistakes I see or hear about, mostly through work:
Infant car seats have a carrying handle. This handle should be stored DOWN, out of the way when in the vehicle. Otherwise it interferes with the crash cushioning mechanism in rear enders, and the handle often breaks off and injures the baby (sometimes stabbing them in the head or torso).
All seat belts must be TIGHT; you should not be able to pinch the seat belt harness at all when it is fastened around your baby. The seat belt holding the car seat to the car should be so tight that you can't move it more than one inch in any direction. The best way to achieve this, in my experience, is to kneel in the seat while tightening the seat belt. Also, the H-shaped locking clip is good for keeping the belt super tight. Lock that seat belt by pulling it all the way out at the top, tugging firmly, and then releasing. If you pull on the belt, it should no longer pull out because it is locked.
Use your tether, and, after removing your knees from the seat to tighten the seat belt, tighten it as firmly as possible.
Infants must not be turned around until they are 22 lbs AND 12 months old. It is commonly believed that 22 lbs is the marker for turning your child front facing, but a baby's spinal chord will not stretch more than an inch when forced forward before 12 months of age, causing it to snap.
Preschoolers must not be moved up to a booster seat until at least 40 lbs (usually around 4.5 years of age, but Ayden is almost 5 and only 37 lbs).
School aged children must (legally in Canada as of Jan. 1st, 2008) be in a booster seat until age 8 or 80 lbs, whichever happens first.
Car seat harness belts should be AT or BELOW an infant's shoulders in the rear facing position.
Car seat harness belts should be AT or ABOVE a child's shoulders in the front facing position. (Often, kids will outgrow their harness belt before they are heavy enough for a booster seat: Ayden outgrew his and we had to buy a whole new car seat just for the 6 to 8 months between car seat and booster).
Register your car seat: there are a LOT of recalls of entire seats or parts. If you are registered, the company will contact you.
Also, don't buy second hand car seats.
Car seats expire after 10 years.
Car seats should be disposed of after a crash, much like helmets.
Car seats purchased in the U.S.A. are crash tested to lower crash speeds than those purchased in Canada, and are thus illegal to use and not covered by auto insurance in Canada.
I'm sure no one is still reading this, but at least I've had my say!!

Thanks for the list of commonly made mistakes in car seats. We're needing to purchase another infant car seat here soon too.

I read to the end :) I attend a Health Canada program here in Whitehorse called "Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies" and we had a car seat safety expert come in and talk to us. It's great to have access to information, and they will also help you install your car seat properly. One thing I just learned, which is not so relevant in Vancouver but is definitely an issue in the Yukon, is that snowsuits or any similar bulky clothing can pretty much eliminate the usefulness of the car seat. In a crash the snowsuit will be compressed to nothing, and the infant or toddler can be ejected from the car seat since the belt is no longer tight. Creates a bit of a dilemma at -25 C! We're working on a solution for our family for next winter.

Upon arrival no one asked me if I wanted a drink. But overall the food was fabulous. There were a few things that they were out of which was slightly inconveniencing. I had the fried shrimp sushi roll. It was WONDERFUL! A gift from God almost. The server was fine. Nothing spectacular.

The food and service are excellent at Sei. I went with a party of 8 while the restaurant was crowded. We received attentive, timely service. Also, each person was pleased with her meal. The sushi is really top quality. The kobe tataki roll is the best, but all rolls were tasty and fresh. Sei is pricey but definitely worth it. It's nice to have great sushi in DC! I'd actually say it's the best that I've had in DC so far.

The service is phenomenal, and the food is eclectic. The fish and chips sushi was fabulous and unlike any maki I have had before. Prices are a little high, but worth it for the atmosphere and flavorful dishes.

Celebrities aren't immune to doing things in relationships that might be a little bit questionable. Sometimes, their relationships are the product of cheating, or sometimes, they have hug age differences, which make said relationships seem rather inappropriate. Now, we're not about to judge anyone else's happiness, because when it comes to love, who's to say what's right and wrong between consenting adults? Although sometimes in some of these cases "adult" is a term loosely used.
From the infamous Woody Allen/Soon Yi Previn relationship to more palatable love beginning under not-so-palatable circumstances, like Brangelina, these celebrities have relationships that might be considered bothersome by some. From Lorde, a teenager with an adult boyfriend, to the 24 year age gap between heartthrob Aaron Jonnson and his girlfriend Sam Taylor Wood, many of these relationships seem to push the boundaries of propriety. But again — where love is concerned, a generational age gap or a current spouse can seem like the smallest of trivialities. Click through our gallery and let us know in the comments: which of these couples do you think is the most inappropriate?

I purchased this vehicle used, with 16K miles on it. I drove it for 6k miles in 5 month then a transmission problem occur; the car would not reverse. It first started on the freeway on cruise at 70mph the o/d light comes on but disappears later. Took it to the dealer but they thought there was nothing wrong. A day later at the DMV the car would not reverse. Towed it to the dealer and they found out the transmission was dead. Luckily i still have my warranty so it was replaced. Since i purchased it i notice a sluggish initial acceleration when entering the freeway.

More than 4,000 underprivileged couples were legally joined together in matrimony in a mass wedding ceremony held in Senayan Stadium, South Jakarta, on Tuesday.
The 4,501 couples wedded were from low-income families across the capital who had already been married in religious ceremonies, but were unable to obtain certificates because they could not afford to pay the administration fees.
The youngest new couple were a pair of 16-years-olds, while the oldest love-struck bride and groom were both 86.
"We thank God for having answered our prayers. We finally got our marriage certificate," said 86-year-old groom Rahman, from Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta.
The event was organized by the Jakarta municipal government, the Pondok Kasih Foundation and television station B Channel.
Hana Ananda, the founder of Pondok Kasih, said there were still many couples in Indonesia who had not been able to legalize their marriage due to poverty.
"It touches my heart because there are people who still care for them [the couples] because they are the people who live in slum areas such as under the flyovers, dump-sites and others," Hana said.

Product description
This is a sweeping, colorful, and concise narrative history of Egypt from the beginning of human settlement in the Nile River valley 5000 years ago to the present day. Accessible, authoritative, and richly illustrated, this is an ideal introduction and guide to Egypt's long, brilliant, and complex history for general readers, tourists, and anyone else who wants a better understanding of this vibrant and fascinating country, one that has played a central role in world history for millennia - and that continues to do so today. Respected historian Robert Tignor, who has lived in Egypt at different times over the course of five decades, covers all the major eras of the country's ancient, modern, and recent history. A cradle of civilization, ancient Egypt developed a unique and influential culture that featured a centralized monarchy, sophisticated art and technology, and monumental architecture in the form of pyramids and temples. But the great age of the pharaohs is just the beginning of the story and "Egypt: A Short History" also gives a rich account of the tumultuous history that followed - from Greek and Roman conquests, the rise of Christianity, Arab-Muslim triumph, and Egypt's incorporation into powerful Islamic empires to Napoleon's 1798 invasion, the country's absorption into the British Empire, and modern, postcolonial Egypt under Nasser, Sadat, and Mubarak. This book provides an indispensable key to Egypt in all its layers - ancient and modern, Greek and Roman, and Christian and Islamic.

Author information
Robert L. Tignor is the Rosengarten Professor of Modern and Contemporary History, Emeritus, at Princeton University, where he taught for forty-six years and served as chair of the History Department for fourteen years. He is the author of several previous books on Egyptian history.
Review quote
Ambitious in scope, Egypt: A Short History provides an informative and readable account for the interested general reader. -- Anthony Gorman Times Higher Education Robert L. Tignor's ambitious Egypt: A Short History stretches from the Predynastic age to the present, tying the various periods together in a continuous 5,000-year narrative to create a lengthy history told in a short book... Tignor writes with an easy, assured style, and his history becomes more focused and more authoritative as it progresses. He tells us it was conceived as an alternative guidebook for discerning tourists wishing to learn about more than just pyramids and pharaohs: as such--as an enjoyable book written by someone who clearly knows and loves Egypt and the Egyptians--it serves its purpose very well. Financial Times [O]ne could not write a better account of Egypt's history--a gift from a master historian at the conclusion of his career. -- Henry E. Chambers Middle East Journal A brief look at Egypt's history can help us both understand the making of Egypt and the reasons behind what has already been dubbed Egypt's unfinished revolution. -- Lisa Kaaki Arab News
Flap copy
"From Hyksos chariots to Egypt's latest venture in the desert, "Egypt: A Short History" is vintage Robert Tignor: concise, straightforward, and comprehensive. He manages to introduce primers on the sects of Islam, the trajectory of the Ottoman Empire, and other subjects ranging well beyond Egypt. And he gives fair warning: if you want to be mummified, your brain will be drawn out through your nose."--John Waterbury, American University of Beirut"This is a masterpiece. In simple and accessible prose, Robert Tignor builds on his long and deep familiarity with Egyptian history, politics, and economy. The reader comes away with an understanding of what propels Egyptian history over the ages, and an appreciation of the key questions that beleaguer modern Egypt. This book will be of enormous value for general readers, students, and tourists."--Khaled Fahmy, New York University"Its rare to get the entire history of Egypt between the covers of one book, but that is what this book does, providing a wonderful and thoroughly enjoyable sweep through Egyptian history. Robert Tignor is a great historian and this marvelous book displays his tremendous skill, experience, and knowledge."--J. G. Manning, Yale University

The striker has been sidelined for a month with a hamstring problem but came through a midweek reserve match unscathed to put himself in the frame for Saturday's top-of-the-table clash with Burnley.
"I was delighted to be back out there," he told the club's website.
"I felt good, I felt sharp and it was a good run-out for me. It was important for me to get some minutes under my belt.
"I've been back in training for over a week now and I feel fine.
"I was only out for four weeks, it was only a minor hamstring injury, but it feels good to be back playing again."

British Gas has topped the first home services benchmark study conducted by eDigitalResearch which used online mystery shoppers to assess the usability and experience of twelve leading utility and broadband supplier websites.
In a highly commoditised sector, where customers can easily switch brands for a better deal, having an intuitive website is the best way to build customer loyalty. With the highest overall rating at 77%, British Gas was seen to provide the best online user experience with an easy to navigate homepage and account area, backed up by clear tariffs and contract information.
E.ON rated highly for its customer service function, scoring 82% for its telephone service with people able to speak directly to a live operator, and scoring 74% for its quick and informative email response service. This boosted it to third position overall behind O2, reflecting the importance of engaging well with consumers via whichever medium they choose.
The study revealed that email customer service was the weakest area overall, scoring an average of 49%, with a variation of almost 50% from leader E.ON to the worst performer.
Derek Eccleston, research director of eDigitalResearch, explains: "The growth of online chat, communities and price comparison sites means that consumers have more power to research, buy and advocate products than ever before. It only takes one poor online review to turn people away. Our study highlights the need for sector improvement in customer service, particularly via email, as people expect to have their queries dealt with quickly and effectively. This is an area where utility and broadband providers can truly differentiate their offering and build customer loyalty."
The survey also indicates that the sector has some way to go in order to compete with 'best in breed' companies for website engagement and customer service, with the top performing websites lagging behind other sectors including retail, travel and finance.
Derek continues: "The problem here is a lack of consistency as the broadband suppliers had unclear and cluttered home pages and certain utility providers weren't responsive enough to customer queries. It is clear that providers need to re-address the balance to ensure that their websites are both enticing and well-supported."

By Kathleen T. RhemAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20, 2002 Construction began last week on a major thoroughfare connecting the Afghan cities of Kabul, Kandahar and Herat, Defense Department spokeswoman Victoria Clarke said today.
The 745-mile highway was badly damaged by years of war and neglect, she told reporters in the Pentagon this morning. Mine-clearing and construction are being funded by $180 million donated by the United States, Saudi Arabia and Japan, she said, adding the U.S. share was $80 million.
"With the help of the Department of Defense, this road will be cleared of land mines and repaired," she said. "Trade and commerce can then increase between the major Afghan cities." Clarke noted the United States has already repaired more than 2,300 miles of roads as part of the $835 million in assistance it delivered to Afghanistan in the last year.
She also showed several images from military humanitarian assistance projects ongoing in Afghanistan, including a minute-long video clip of Afghan men near Bagram, outside Kabul, bringing children to be treated by American and South Korean medical personnel.
Clarke showed several photos depicting similar scenes and other humanitarian efforts. One photo showed a 9th Psychological Operations Battalion soldier from Fort Bragg, N.C., teaching a crowd from the village of Najab how to count in English. Another showed an American military veterinary technician treating a goat.
"Veterinary personnel from the U.S. military and others are helping a lot of people over there with their livestock," she said. "The sheep and goats are a very important part of the local economies, and we're doing everything we can to help them on that front."

Cook on 64-bit A7 chip: 'Front end of a long roadmap'
updated 07:51 pm EDT, Mon October 28, 2013
Cook coy on why mobile devices need 64-bit processing
Apple CEO Tim Cook on Monday said that the inclusion of a 64-bit processor in the company's newest iPhones and iPads is just the beginning of long product roadmap. Cook's comments came in the midst of Apple's fiscal fourth quarter conference call. The Apple chief neglected to detail what sort of products Apple may have in the offing that would require such processing power.
The announcement of a 64-bit chip for the iPhone 5s touched off a minor controversy in the tech industry, with some observers noting that such technology is most useful for devices accessing more than 4GB of RAM. Some Apple competitors, though, were quick to announce that they would be rolling out 64-bit power in the next generation of their own devices.
Asked by an analyst why Apple's iPhones and iPads would need such power, Cook made assurances that the introduction of the A7 was part of a bigger strategy.
"Everything you mentioned," Cook said, "is the front end of a long roadmap."
Cook made no further comment on the A7's implications for iOS devices, but he likened the inclusion of a 64-bit processor to another new feature that debuted with the iPhone 5s, the Touch ID biometric sensor.
"This is our first use of the fingerprint sensor," he continued, "and if you've used it so far, you know it's pretty profound from a security point of view."
Adhering to Apple's policy of secrecy, Cook had kicked off the conference call with vague hints at new product offerings in the coming months.
"If you look at the skills Apple has, from hardware and software services... no one has skills like this," Cook said. "We obviously believe we can use our skills to build other great products in areas we do not participate in today."
While iPhones and iPads continue to see strong sales, many investors and industry observers have continually chided Apple for choosing to gradually improve its existing products instead of breaking into new product categories. Cook, meanwhile, has maintained over the past few conference calls that Apple is hard at work on new products, while of course holding back any additional information. The most the Apple chief would reveal is that consumers can expect them throughout 2014.
Current speculation centers on the possibility of Apple entering two different markets in the near future: television and wearable computing devices. The idea of an "iTV" has a relatively long history, with each quarter bringing new rumors that the next quarter will see such a device introduced. The supposed "iWatch" wearable device, though, may have a bit more substance behind it, as Apple patent applications have revealed that the company has at least worked on such devices.

Albuquerque, NM - The Lobo Club is continuing its Drive to 5,000 members until December 31st, 2014, but along the way has reached an all-time high in membership. The Lobo Club, the Gateway to Giving for UNM Athletics, currently stands at 4,488 members for the current 2013-14 season, which marks the most in its 82-year history.
"The entire University of New Mexico Athletics Department is thankful for such an outpouring of support," said Vice President for Athletics Paul Krebs. "We have some of the best fans in the country, and I want to congratulate all of our members on this tremendous accomplishment."
The Lobo Club has worked hard to attract new members, but also retain its current membership. In 2012-13 they brought in 964 new members and in 2013-14 they increased that amount to 1,287 – which is 323 more than the previous year. All and all, the Lobo Club has been able to increase their total membership base by almost 200 members this year, but there is still work to be done to reach their ambitious goal.
As the 2014-15 fiscal year approaches, the Lobo Club has already mailed out renewals and begun recruiting new members to achieve 5,000 members for the first time in school history. This number would also put UNM at the top of the Mountain West Conference. They currently sit in third place behind Wyoming and Boise State. "Many of our teams are currently the best in our conference, and we want the Lobo Club to achieve that same position," said Lee De Leon, Executive Director of the Lobo Club. "With all the UNM alumni, fans and friends not only in New Mexico, but all over the country, I am confident that we can reach 5,000 members by the end of this calendar year."
The annual Ambassador Drive, which features 80 volunteer fundraisers who donate their time to raise money for the Lobos, is also starting this week. "The Ambassador Drive is a great kick-off to renewing and recruiting new members for the upcoming fiscal year," said Lauren Adee, Director of Annual Giving for the Lobo Club. "These volunteers have a tremendous amount of passion for the Lobos, and we are extremely grateful for all they do to grow the membership of the Lobo Club."
To support student-athlete scholarships and help in the Drive to 5,000, go to www.Driveto5000.com or call 505-925- CLUB (2582) and join the Lobo Club today. Membership starts at $50 annually and all donations are tax-deductible.

I-40 interchange design causes concern about W. Dumplin Valley Road
Some local residents told Tennessee Department of Transportation officials Thursday that they believe the redesign of the Exit 407 interchange will create a "deathtrap" at West Dumplin Valley Road.
There were few complaints about how the redesign would affect traffic accessing Highway 66 and Interstate 40 during TDOT's public hearing on the proposal, but several people came to speak out about the possible issues for people using West Dumplin Valley. The road —where the flea market is — runs along the south side of Interstate 40 before emptying out on Highway 66.
It's already difficult for drivers to get into the northbound lanes of the highway toward the baseball park, with drivers typically turning south and quickly trying to cross three lanes of traffic to make a U-turn into the northbound lanes.
The redesign calls for the northbound and southbound lanes of Highway 66 to switch to opposite sides of the highway just before they reach the bridges over the interstate. TDOT officials say the new design — originally called a diverging diamond, now called a double crossover diamond — will improve traffic flow because drivers won't have to turn left across oncoming traffic. It also calls for improvements to the interstate, including a long turn-off lane for people getting off at the exit.
But the people concerned about West Dumplin Valley Road think the redesign overlooks the difficulty they face when the road empties out not far from the interchange.
"I see a great flaw in what you're doing," said Myra Hensley. "I see a deathtrap at West Dumplin Valley."
She wasn't the only one to use that term. Some others asked what the redesign would do for people trying to turn onto the road from the northbound lanes of the highway.
Jonathan Haycraft of design firm Gresham Smith and Partners, said local and state officials are aware the design would cause additional issues for drivers using West Dumplin Valley.
"We definitely hear you," he said. "We've looked at it this morning and we've looked at for months, and we'll keep looking at it." However, he acknowledged there was no easy solution.
Some of the other questions included whether the design would confuse motorists, especially tourists who might come here once or twice a year. Haycraft acknowledged it looked confusing viewing it on a map, but drivers wouldn't be confused because they would still be following the road and wouldn't have an option to turn and get lost.
Jim Blalock asked whether they had considered making an access lane running from Interstate 40 longer than the planned 2,500 feet. "You should consider extending that," he said. "It would be cheap to build."
Thursday's hearing was the only one planned on the proposal, but it was not the last opportunity for people to let TDOT know what they think about the proposal.
They have until June 6 to email comments to firstname.lastname@example.com or mail them to Project Comments, Tennessee Department of Transportation, Suite 700, James K. Polk Building, 505 Deadrick St., Nashville, TN 37243-0332.
If approved, the project could be let for bids in the final quarter of this year, meaning construction could start as early as next year. The estimated work time is between 12 and 18 months.

Video:How to Walk the Brooklyn Bridgewith Charli James
Walking the Brooklyn Bridge is a must-do for visitors to New York City. Follow these video tips from About.com to learn the best ways to walk the Brooklyn Bridge.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Walk the Brooklyn Bridge
Hi, I'm Charli James for About.com and we're on the famous Brooklyn Bridge in New York City. Today I'm going to show you how to walk the Brooklyn Bridge and what sights to look out for.
What to Know Before Walking the Brooklyn Bridge
The Brooklyn Bridge connects the boroughs of Brooklyn and Manhattan. There is no cost to walk it and there is a dedicated walkway just for pedestrians and bikers, so you can stroll and sightsee above the traffic. The Brooklyn Bridge is a 1.3-mile walk, so give yourself at least an hour if you want to sight-see and take pictures.
Access Points in Manhattan to Walk the Brooklyn Bridge
You can access the Brooklyn Bridge walkway from the Manhattan or Brooklyn side. On the Manhattan side, you can only enter at Park Row and Centre Street, across from City Hall Park. The closest subway station to the Manhattan entrance is the Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall 4, 5, and 6 trains. This station is right across the street from the Bridge.
Access Points in Brooklyn to Walk the Brooklyn Bridge
On the Brooklyn side there are two pedestrian entrances. The ramp entrance is at Tillary and Adams Streets. There is also a stairway entrance under the overpass at Cadman Plaza East and Prospect Streets. The closest subway station to the Brooklyn entrances is the A or C High Street-Brooklyn Bridge stop. Keep in mind it is a 1/4-mile walk to the bridge from this subway.
To access the pedestrian walkways, just follow the signs and walk up the ramp or stairs to the bridge. Bicyclists and walkers have separate lanes on the same walkway, so watch out for bikes.
Sights to See While Walking the Brooklyn Bridge
Sights to look out for on the Brooklyn Bridge include: the Statue of Liberty, Manhattan Skyline, Brooklyn Skyline, the South Street Seaport, the East River and other NYC bridges. You can cross the bridge at anytime, it is open 24 hours. However, sunrise and sunset provide gorgeous views. Walking over the Brooklyn Bridge is a favorite of NYC tourists and locals alike. I recommend walking in both directions to get views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan skylines.
Now you know how to walk the Brooklyn Bridge, and what to look for. For more on New York City attractions, visit About.com.

Phoenix Suns
Gentry: Marcin Gortat's play has improved based on energy
When the Phoenix Suns have struggled this season, no one has been more vocal about their role -- or lack there of -- in the team's ever-evolving offense than center Marcin Gortat.
Heading into the year, Gortat -- one of only two returning starters from a season ago -- had envisioned more opportunities in Alvin Gentry's offensive scheme. While the Polish Hammer imagined a role with more touches, more shots and likely a higher points per game average, the Suns' mindset didn't seem to be in line with his best laid plans.
In the month of November, Gortat averaged just 11.4 points per game and took only 9.5 shots per contest -- well below his average production levels in both categories since coming to Phoenix in December 2010.
During the Suns' season-high seven-game losing streak -- which stretched from November 28 to December 9 -- Gortat's numbers continued to take a dive. Outside of the double-double he posted at Madison Square Garden against the New York Knicks on December 2, Gortat was rather invisible at both ends of the floor (three games of six points and six rebounds or less).
For a center who often times creates offensive chances for himself on the glass, Gortat averaged only six rebounds per game during the seven-game skid.
Needless to say, things have changed for Phoenix's big man over the last three games. During the team's recent win streak, Gortat has been engaged, aggressive on the boards -- against the likes of Marc Gasol, Al Jefferson and DeMarcus Cousins -- and a focal point in the offense.
"I think he's getting to understand that [his defensive activity helps his offense]," head coach Alvin Gentry told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Tuesday. "I think what he's figuring out also, is that the ball is going to come to him as hard as he has been working lately.
"We always say that in this offense the ball will always find energy. I think he's realizing that."
During the Suns' three-game win streak, Gortat has posted two double-double performances, while averaging 12 points and 11.6 rebounds per game.

HTC: ITC Apple decision "is a win for HTC"
HTC may have been banned from importing some of its smartphones into the US, but the company is still describing the outcome of its patent suit with Apple as a success. The US ITC "declared an actual victory for HTC" the company told the FT, because out of the ten infringements Apple alleged, only one was found to be valid. Meanwhile half of the claims on a previous ruling have also been rejected.
