Discontinuation of Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole Prophylaxis in Adults on Antiretroviral Therapy in Kenya

- How to Read a Study Record
Both antiretroviral therapy (ART) and prevention of opportunistic infections (OIs) have been associated with significantly decreased mortality in HIV-infected individuals. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMZ), also known as bactrim, is a common antibiotic and used as prophylaxis for OIs. For countries with high prevalence of HIV and limited health infrastructure, the WHO endorses universal TMP/SMZ for all HIV-infected individuals. Notably, these guidelines were created prior to the scale-up of ARTs. Following ART and subsequent immune recovery, TMP/SMZ may no longer be required. In the US and Europe, for example, TMP/SMZ is discontinued after patients show evidence of immune recovery. Therefore, we propose a prospective randomized trial among HIV infected individuals on ART with evidence of immune recovery (ART for > 18mo and CD4 >350 cells/mm3) to determine whether continued TMP/SMZ prophylaxis confers benefits in decreasing morbidity (malaria, pneumonia, diarrhea), mortality, CD4 count maintenance, ART treatment failure and malaria immune responses.

CANTON Whatever allegedly possessed Jesse A. Montanye to steal a municipal pickup with a plow, the Essex County man wasnt going to let a chain-link fence stand in his way. Or a stop sign.
It apparently took a utility pole standing in Mr. Montanyes path before he abandoned the stolen truck and fled its wreckage early Thursday on University Avenue in Canton, village police said.
When police finally caught up with Mr. Montanye a short time later, he allegedly made one last-ditch attempt to elude their grasp, clambering out an apartment window as officers closed in.
Mr. Montanye, 21, of Newcomb, was charged with driving while intoxicated, refusal to take a breath test, third-degree criminal mischief, fourth-degree grand larceny, failure to remove debris from the highway, driving on a sidewalk, reckless driving, speed not reasonable and prudent, failure to use designated lane, moving from lane unsafely and failure to keep right, interim Canton Police Chief Victor N. Rycroft said.
Police were alerted at about 1 a.m. that a plow-equipped pickup truck had been stolen from the St. Lawrence County Highway Department lot on Park Street and that it had crashed into a utility pole on University Avenue, Mr. Rycroft said. Investigation revealed that Mr. Montanye climbed into in the 2003 Chevrolet truck owned by the village of Canton and rammed a chain link fence several times before driving it out onto Miner Street, police said.
Once through the fence, Mr. Montanye then allegedly drove the vehicle from Miner Street onto Lincoln Street. Continuing his wild ride, Mr. Montanye drove over the sidewalk and ran over a stop sign at Park Street, police said. The journey came to an abrupt halt on University Avenue, where the truck splintered a utility pole. Mr. Montanye then fled, police said.
Officers soon tracked him to an apartment on Dies Street. But as police approached the building, Mr. Montanye allegedly scrambled out a window at the back of the building. Officers captured him in the back yard.
The truck sustained major body damage, according to police documents, and its plow had been broken.
Village Superintendent Brien E. Hallahan on Thursday afternoon said he did not yet have a cost estimate on damage to the truck, but there is a chance it was effectively totalled in the wreck, he said.
The truck had been parked in the countys lot after a village driver took it there for a vehicle swap while working to clear the nights heavy, wet snow, Mr. Hallahan said. Mr. Montanye apparently found the keys in the trucks cup holder, he added.
Mr. Montanye was arraigned before Canton Justice Christopher R. Curley and released pending a later appearance. Additional charges may be pending, Mr. Rycroft said.
Canton police were assisted by the St. Lawrence County Sheriffs Department, SUNY Canton police, U.S. Border Patrol and St. Lawrence University security.

17 U.S. Code § 305 - Duration of copyright: Terminal date
Source(Pub. L. 94–553, title I, § 101,Oct. 19, 1976, 90 Stat. 2576.)
Historical and Revision Notes
house report no. 94–1476
Under section 305, which has its counterpart in the laws of most foreign countries, the term of copyright protection for a work extends through December 31 of the year in which the term would otherwise have expired. This will make the duration of copyright much easier to compute, since it will be enough to determine the year, rather than the exact date, of the event from which the term is based.
Section 305 applies only to "terms of copyright provided by sections 302 through 304," which are the sections dealing with duration of copyright. It therefore has no effect on the other time periods specified in the bill; and, since they do not involve "terms of copyright," the periods provided in section 304 (c) with respect to termination of grants are not affected by section 305.
The terminal date section would change the duration of subsisting copyrights under section 304 by extending the total terms of protection under subsections (a) and (b) to the end of the 75th year from the date copyright was secured. A copyright subsisting in its first term on the effective date of the act [Jan. 1, 1978] would run through December 31 of the 28th year and would then expire unless renewed. Since all copyright terms under the bill expire on December 31, and since section 304 (a) requires that renewal be made "within one year prior to the expiration of the original term of copyright," the period for renewal registration in all cases will run from December 31 through December 31.
A special situation arises with respect to subsisting copyrights whose first 28-year term expires during the first year after the act comes into effect. As already explained in connection with section 304 (b), if a renewal registration for a copyright of this sort is made before the effective date [Jan. 1, 1978], the total term is extended to 75 years without the need for a further renewal registration. But, if renewal has not yet been made when the act becomes effective [Jan. 1, 1978], the period for renewal registration may in some cases be extended. If, as the bill provides, the act becomes effective on January 1, 1978, a copyright that was originally secured on September 1, 1950, could have been renewed by virtue of the present statute between September 1, 1977, and December 31, 1977; if not, it can still be renewed under section 304(a) of the new act between January 1, 1978, and December 31, 1978.

Video beauty blogging, or beauty vlogging, has gained serious attention thanks to video stars like Michelle Phan, but how does it all work, exactly? We chatted with Elle Fowler from All That Glitters and her sister Blair Fowler from Juicy Star, Teni Panosian from Miss Maven and sisters Samantha and Nic Chapman from Pixiwoo for the details.
19 Secrets to Being a Successful Beauty Vlogger
- 1 of 26
- 2 of 26I don't have any formal training in beauty, but I was the girl who did everyone's makeup for cheerleading in high school, and always really curious about different products. I kind of became this really knowledgeable consumer. When my friends started calling me from Sephora and asking what to buy, I thought about starting a blog.
- 3 of 26
Sam: My sister Nic and I have been makeup artists for 20 years Five years ago, I was asked to explain how to create a smoky eye via email, but decided that filming a demo and uploading the video to YouTube was a better way to get my point across. Seven hundred videos later, we are still recording different tutorials and uploading to YouTube every week.
Nic: Sam was shocked to see that other people began commenting on that first video, asking for different looks, so she asked me to step in and help.
- 4 of 26
When I was at my parents' house on summer break from college, I came across a girl who was reviewing some foundation, and I thought it was the coolest concept. I fell in love with the entire community right away.
- 5 of 26
- 6 of 26
Nic: Being relatable and honest is the most important thing. Of course, it helps to know what you're talking about, too.
- 7 of 26
There's a lot that goes into it, but building a relationship with your viewer is the most important thing. It's easy to get in front of the camera and act robotic, but the viewer wants to see your personality.
- 8 of 26
Staying really true to your personality is important, because people can tell if you really enjoy what you're talking about or if you're putting on a show.
- 9 of 26
- 10 of 26
I use Final Cut Pro. No one taught me, I just kind of sat there and taught myself; however long it took I was going to learn. Now I'm very computer savvy. My camera is a Canon T3i. It's an older model, but it's from the rebel series and great for amateurs. Some people think they have to buy a $3,000 camera, but you don't. I also use softboxes and a ring light; they're ideal for beauty shots.
- 11 of 26
When I first started, I used a webcam and iMovie on my sister's MacBook. I still use iMovie, so I haven't graduated to anything more exciting, but I did graduate from the webcam! In 2013 I got a Canon Rebel T5i. I stayed up for days reading the instruction manual.
- 12 of 26
- 13 of 26
When I started, Twitter wasn't a thing and neither was Instagram, so my audience grew very organically. Somehow people found my videos by searching. Now we use social media to share my content.
- 14 of 26
It's a combination of a lot of things, but putting up a lot of content is number one. If you don't put up content every week, the viewers will see that you're not committed.
- 15 of 26
- 16 of 26
To satisfy my own creative needs, really. Also requests; I keep track of what people ask for and do a lot of those. 'Getting ready with me' videos are really popular because they show a lot of your personality.
- 17 of 26
Mostly requests. I've been doing it for six years so I know the videos that work for my audience. It's mainly what I think is interesting, what's worked in the past, and requests from Twitter.
- 18 of 26
- 19 of 26
I think Twitter is the most popular for me, but that's the platform I am most active on, so that's where I get a lot of engagement. Instagram is pretty good for sharing, too. Facebook doesn't do much for my audience.
- 20 of 26
I would say Instagram. Social media has a shelf life and Instagram is number one right now. You never know what's going to be the next big thing.
- 21 of 26I post everything to Twitter. I'm not that into Facebook. The main way people see my videos is by subscribing on YouTube. I post all my videos on Instagram as well, with a link in my bio.
- 22 of 26
- 23 of 26
Informative, personable, and aspirational.
- 24 of 26
Relatable, humble, and real.
- 25 of 26
Bubbly, exciting, and lively.
- 26 of 26
Playful, organized, and, oh my gosh, I don't know! Girly!

BUFFALO, N.Y. - When people like County Executive Mark Poloncarz's brother, or county Republican chairman Nick Langworthy's sister-in -law get jobs at the Erie County Water Authority, the man doing the hiring was the Authority's longtime Executive Director Bob Mendez.
Often times recommendations on who Mendez should hire would come from the Republican and Democratic party chairmen or the authority's three commissioners.
Now Mendez, who has placed so many of the well-connected in jobs over the years, will soon be out of a job himself.
Last week, 2 On Your Side has learned, the three authority commissioners gave Mendez a letter saying his contract, which payed him $154,000 a year will not be renewed when it expires at the end of this month.
But Mendez will hardly be walking away empty handed.
Under the terms of the contract he negotiated with the board three years ago, Mendez will receive a lump sum payment equal to one year's salary, meaning he'll get a check for $154,000.
In addition, the contract says the Water Authority will continue to pay for Mendez's "medical insurance for the remainder of his life."
So with Mendez leaving, does that mean the political hiring at the Authority will be a thing of the past? Hardly.
The next Executive Director will be hired by the authority's three commissioners, who are appointed by the county legislature, and often take their marching orders from the county's Democratic and Republican Chairmen.
Jack O'Donnell is one of the Water Authority's three current commissioners, but O'Donnell, who was seen as a reformer at the authority, recently was not reappointed to a new term by the county legislature, and so O'Donnell will be leaving the authority in late April.
O'Donnell doesn't hold out much hope that whoever succeeds Mendez will change much at the authority.
"The question is who comes in next, is it someone who understands engineering and water delivery, is it someone who understands managing a major utility, I have my doubts that that's what the party bosses are going to be looking for," said O'Donnell.
Instead of reappointing O'Donnell to another three year term as commissioner, the county legislature instead chose Chris O'Brien, a lawyer and major donor to the Democratic party and new party Chairman Jeremy Zellner.
The appointment of a new Executive Director will be one of the first tests for O'Brien, who has said he wants to do what's best for ratepayers.

Website slowness is one of the most common issues web developers have to troubleshoot. It can also be one of the most difficult issues to identify. Network speeds, hardware sizing, site traffic levels, code quality, and configuration are just a few of the factors that can contribute to a site's speed or slowness.
To improve our customers' ability to diagnose and resolve website performance issues, Acquia has partnered with two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) solutions, which come included with all paid Acquia Insight subscriptions: New Relic and TraceView. Both services allow customers to analyze their website performance over time, and zoom in on specific time periods to see what may be contributing to the website's slow page load times. For more information about using New Relic or TraceView with your Acquia subscription, see Using TraceView and New Relic.
This article focuses on New Relic.
PHP.net ended support for PHP 5.2 on 6 January 2011 and for PHP 5.3 on 14 August 2014. While Acquia has been working to maintain support for these deprecated versions of PHP, support for these versions will end, in favor of PHP 5.5 and 5.6, on Tuesday, 1 September 2015. At that time, we will remove these obsolete and unsupported versions of PHP and convert all remaining environments to PHP 5.6. This deadline will not be extended, as it is critical your website be upgraded to ensure its continued security.
PHP 5.5 and 5.6 provide extensive improvements in performance and security over previous versions. While PHP 5.5 is available, we strongly recommend customers move to PHP 5.6 immediately (after appropriate testing) because php.net will end active support for PHP 5.5 in June 2015. Backwards incompatibility between PHP 5.6 and PHP 5.5 is minimal and consists of bug fixes and security improvements.
Is there any action required on my part?
All environments for all applications must be upgraded to PHP 5.5 or PHP 5.6 before Tuesday, 1 September 2015. Prior to that date, you should upgrade your non-production sites in order to test for any incompatibilities in your website. We recommend beginning with your non-production upgrades as soon as possible to ensure you have time to test, prior to upgrading your production site. Once you have resolved any incompatibilities, upgrade your production website before the end-of-life deadline. See Configuring PHP settings for instructions on changing your PHP version.
In an ongoing effort to improve security, an upcoming release of the Acquia Cloud platform will prevent the use of an older syntax that can be used to access Acquia Cloud instances using secure shell (SSH).
Acquia recommends that all customers review their existing scripts and development processes to ensure that the standard syntax documented described both in this article and in the Using SSH/Shell access documentation page are being consistently utilized.

Exelon's Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station and Conowingo Hydroelectric Plant partnered to provide 500 new winter coats to children in York and Lancaster Counties, Pennsylvania and Harford County, Maryland.
DELTA, Pa. (Jan. 12, 2009) - Exelon's Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station and Conowingo Hydroelectric Plant partnered to provide 500 new winter coats to children in York and Lancaster Counties, Pennsylvania and Harford County, Maryland. The company gave the coats to Delta-Peach Bottom Elementary School, Fawn Area Elementary School, Clermont Elementary School, Quarryville Elementary School and Mason-Dixon Community Services.
The coats will be given to children who otherwise may not have a new winter coat. "All children should have a warm coat for the winter months, and we are happy to be able to help with this need," said Bill Maguire, Peach Bottom's vice president.
"This is such a generous gift and comes just in time-for the winter season and the holidays," said Theresa Perry, director of community outreach for Mason-Dixon Community Services. "We have many requests for coats, and your donation will bring lots of relief to area children. We value Exelon's continued support in our partnership to meet the ever-increasing needs of our community."
One of the most requested items by schools and social service agencies each year is a new, warm winter coat, according to Operation Warm, a non-profit organization dedicated to obtaining new coats for children. Exelon has partnered with Operation Warm to make new coats available to local children in areas where the company operates.
"We worked with the guidance counselors at the schools to make sure we provided them what they needed for their students," said Mary Helen Marsh, Manager of Exelon's hydro operations at the nearby Conowingo Dam and Pennsylvania's Muddy Run. "These coats are designed to keep kids warm, but we also hope they show the children that they are special and cared about."
This is the third year that Exelon has partnered with Operation Warm. Within the last month, Exelon has distributed 3,000 coats in the company's service territories in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Texas and Illinois.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with approximately $19 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 480,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

Trenbolone is without a doubt one of the most popular steroids around. This steroid can be stacked with many other great products for better results. The unique formula allows you to achieve immediate long-lasting results. Tren is generally used during cutting cycles and is perfect for those hoping to tone up, cut fat and increase lean muscle mass.
What Is Trenbolone?
Trenbolone is very closely linked to the naturally produced human steroid testosterone. It has a binding androgen receptor which is almost 3 times as high as testosterone. As Tren is a highly androgenic steroid there is little chance of amortisation which reduces the risk of any oestrogen related side effects.
Tren is commonly known to produce results such as massive increases in strength and physical ability. This in turn increases one's physical appearance and self-confidence. This steroid has also been known to increase appetite allowing one to eat more often without feeling full or bloated. This is excellent for those wishing to increase muscle mass quickly as the more you consume the more fat the body has to transform into lean muscle.
How Does Tren Work?
Tren is responsible for increasing the amounts of pure testosterone naturally produced in the body. It also increases nitrogen retention. The combination of the increased levels of testosterone and nitrogen allow one to burn unwanted excess fat turning it into lean muscle mass. Trenbolone also increases one's red blood cell count. The more red blood cells in the body the quicker oxygen can be transported to the muscles. This allows one to boost stamina and drive meaning that exercise regimes can be intensified and lengthened to achieve even greater results.
What Are The Benefits Of Tren?
- Trenbolone increases the rate of recovery and regeneration.
It enhances muscle density, mass and strength.
Tren achieves fast gains in both muscle and strength.
This steroid promotes the production of testosterone.
Results can be seen in just 2 weeks.
If you buy Tren online there is no need for a prescription – Tren is shipped worldwide with no questions asked!
What Are The Side Effects Of Trenbolone?
As with all steroids, using Trenbolone can cause some unwanted side-effects. Some of the minor side effects which may occur include:
- Mood swings
Excessive sweating / perspiration
Urine discolouration
Uncontrollable coughing
Some of the major side effects which may be experienced include:
Hair loss
Sexual incompetency or impotence
Liver / Kidney malfunction
What Should Be Stacked With Tren?
For one to achieve the best results possible, it is best to stack Tren with other products. Tren is commonly stacked with:
- Winstrol
Below are some sample stacking cycles
- 1. Tren + Winstrol + Clenbuterol (4 week cycle)
Take Tren for 4 weeks – 4 days on and 2 days off
Take winstrol for 4 weeks – 3 days on and 3 days off
Take Clen for the last 2 weeks – 2 days on and 2 days off
- 2. Tren + Anavar + Dianabol (6 week cycle)
Take D-Bol for 2 weeks to kick start cycle
Take Tren for 4 weeks after 2 week kick-start
Take Anavar for 6 weeks
- 3 Tren + Testosterone (4 week cycle)
Take Clen and Testosterone for 4 Weeks 4 days on and 2 days off.

How to Find the Best BB Cream: Beauty Facts Every Woman Should Know
The best BB cream can make a huge difference for your skin. Over time, the skin changes and requires more attention than it may have when a person was young. Many women spend a lot of time and money searching for an anti aging serum that will restore the suppleness and youthful appearance of skin. It's important to select your products wisely because the skin on the face is the most sensitive compared to the rest of the body. So how do you begin searching for anti aging products that will work?

The Best BB Cream by Age
Women know that age can dramatically impact the skin. When we're young, our skin tends to be firmer and requires less maintenance. When we're older, the skin begins to show lines and becomes less absorbent. That's why there is no one-size-fits-all product that works for every woman.
Women in their 20s and 30s should consider looking for products that are thinner in consistency and produce a lovely glow. Younger skin will be able to absorb a lighter cream. Woman who are 40 years of age or older should consider BB creams that are thicker. This ensures that your skin is well-moisturized while reducing the appearance of pores. It is also helpful to look for products that are made specifically for aging skin.
To Sun Block or Not to Sun Block
What's your daily beauty regimen look like? Are you a "go the extra mile" girl who doesn't mind applying multiple beauty products and spending a little extra time prepping for the day? Or are you a woman with places to go and people to see who needs to get her face ready in record time? The answers to these questions can help you decide if you want an all-in-one product or if you prefer to micromanage your routine.
When exploring your options, consider whether you want something that offers built-in sunblock. Sunblock is very important to protect skin from the dangers of sun exposure. Even if you're not bathing on the beach or spending significant time outdoors, your face still comes in contact with sunlight. If your cream doesn't offer an SPF then you may need to find a separate product that does.
Matching BB Creams to Your Skin Tone
The BB cream you use should blend with your natural skin tone. Many products offer between 3 and 5 different shades to choose from. It's vital to find one that matches to avoid looking fake or "made up". Your cream should disappear when you apply it so you can only see gorgeous natural skin with no obvious additives.
If your skin tone is difficult to match, you may have other options. One solution is to combine a moisturizer or anti aging serum with your regular foundation. This will give you flawless coverage with the benefits of BB cream, however it will take more time to prepare. Start by exploring your options with existing beauty products before mixing your own.
Beautifying Your Skin Type
For women with dry skin, more moisturizer is better. In this case you will likely notice no problems when wearing BB cream with additional products and makeup. For women with oily skin, it gets a little trickier. When you layer on moisturizer, BB cream and other beauty products, you could wind up with makeup slippage and shine.
To prevent this problem, women with oily skin should consider switching to oil free or matte moisturizers. You may be able to skip the moisturizer all together and stick with the BB cream only. If your current regimen isn't working, experiment until you have found the perfect balance for your skin type. Women with oily skin should read through our article discussing BB cream products designed specifically for this skin type.
The Best BB Cream for Your Look
When searching for a BB cream for your skin, don't forget to take appearance into consideration. The BB cream will impact how makeup (or a lack of makeup) looks on your face. For example, if you are going for full coverage then you may want to give your BB cream some support with other products or a thicker formula.
Women who prefer a more minimalist approach to makeup may find that a heavy BB cream and other makeup products quickly become too much. In this situation, you may be better off only using the cream to produce that alluring glow without over doing it.
As the Seasons Change, So Does Your BB Cream
You may find that what seemed like the best BB cream for you doesn't work as well during certain times of the year. Humidity can change the way a specific product works. When the temperature heats up in the summer, you don't want to give your face that shiny sweaty look. In the winter, the weather becomes cold in most regions and the air dries out. Your summertime cream may not be up to the task in these conditions.
For summer weather, look for a BB cream that produces a matte finish. This will keep your skin healthy and natural without looking like you just ran a marathon out in the sweltering heat. In the winter, switch to something with more moisturizer to shield your skin from the dry air. Switching between products will give aging skin the short term benefits it needs to remain beautiful for years.
BB Cream Quality vs. Price
Many people believe that if something costs more, it must offer a better value. This isn't always the case, especially when you are shopping for the best BB cream. From Boscia BB cream to Clinique, Maybelline and Amorepacific, there are many brands available in a wide range of prices. Each offers a list of benefits that may be ideal for your needs or may work better for someone else.
Do not choose an anti aging serum or cream based on price alone. The emphasis should be placed on the items mentioned above like consistency, skin type, tone and whether or not the product includes sunblock. If the product does what your skin needs it to do, then price really doesn't matter when evaluating quality.
Of course there's also the concern of budget when buying beauty products. Not everyone can pay $50 or more for one item in their beauty regimen. When budgeting your buys, remember to consider how long the product will last. You may get many weeks' or months of use out of it, which makes the initial cost much more manageable. Also remember to take this into consideration before trying to save money by skipping the anti aging serum or cream.
Are You Ready to Buy BB Cream?
Once you have narrowed down your options using the information provided above, you will be ready to make an educated decision when choosing a specific brand. Don't forget to also check out our BB cream reviews so you can see how well the product worked for other women.
Before taking the plunge and buying your first BB cream, consider looking for smaller quantities or trail size bottles. This will allow you to test out the product and risk less money before committing to a full size bottle. Follow the instructions provided to give the product the best opportunity to work to its fullest potential.
If you would like to learn more about this type of aging skin product, check out our article explaining what BB cream is and how it works. The information provided there combined with the information you read here will help you make better decisions about what you buy and how you use it. The best BB cream can transform your skin and keep you looking young and vibrant no matter how old you are!

[ Sign the Climber's Log ]
|Lucky or unlucky?
Date Climbed: Jul 12, 2007
|After 1 m of fresh snow we started to climb Lyskamm from Mantova hut. Because of the fresh snow and no track it was hard going. A myocardithis nearly killed me so we had to return 100 m beneath the summit. But I´m happy to be alive and that I came down... After months of regenerating I maybe try the mountain in 2008 again.

|Lyskamm east: the 30th
Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2007
|and then it was the time for the Lyskamm east
Planned for so many years.....
The weather during the last ten days of this 2007 august was very unstable. The forecast just gave us a chanche of clear weather for about 12 hours between saturday and sunday. We left Gnifetti hut at 5:10. At 8:10 we reached the summit by the east-ridge. At 10 we were back to Gnifetti just before the weather turned very bad. At 9 the lyskamm was already totally kept by clouds.
Wonderfull, knife edged, aesthetic ridge. A step into the sky.
and it was mine 30th fourthausant summit of alp.

|Climbed the SW arete from Felikjoch and Castor. Traversed E to W and descended the E arete. The sun was rising as we reached the W summit. Incredibly beautiful. Traversing in the dark was good because I couldn't see how far the drop was. Exposure was huge as we weaved our way along the cornice.

|"The only problem will be the wind", said Freddy when we started from the hut with the intention to traverse the Liskamm from west to east. And he was right. The wind was so hard that we almost couldn't move on the summit ridge. There was nothing to do but to turn back at the west summit. Exciting tour. (July 26, 2000).

Charlie Blakely's 1972 Citroen SM was Motor Trend's car of the year that year.
The interior may not be quite as expressive as the interior, but the Citroen SM boasted a one-spoke steering wheel design.
This SM is powered by Maserati's 2.7-liter V-6 engine.
The 1972 Citroen SM was one of the most unique cars of the year.
This Maserati V-6 powers the SM with about 170 horsepower.
The front end of the SM had to be redesigned for the U.S. market as the six-headlight design with one bulb that turned with the wheel was determined to be illegal for American roads.
The long, sweeping fastback design was one of the key features of the SM.
The unique front has six headlights in Europe, including one that turns with the wheel.
The Citroen SM had one of the most advanced suspension systems on the road in 1972.
Designers made the 1972 Citroen SM one of the most unique vehicles on the road.
The interior of the SM wasn't quite as expressive as the exterior, but designers found ways of adding some unique features, such as the one-spoke steering wheel.
Charles Blakely's 1972 Citroen SM came with the three-speed automatic transmission.
Instead of a conventional brake pedal, the Citroen uses a rubber bubble.

Michael Jackson might have passed away, but that does not mean that his name and image are not as popular as they have ever been. Michael Jackson has been really huge in Japan in recent years with a number of very highly touted products being released that feature his image. There is a new social game that has been released on a number of Japanese mobile social gaming platforms including the popular Mobage titled "Michael's King of Pop.
The new game will allow for users to take Michael Jackson from nothing to the number one entertainer on the planet, just as he did throughout his early career. The game has already become quite popular and you can bet that it will only continue to become more popular as it is being covered on a number of other media outlets as well.
The players int he game are allowed to take control of his career. They will also be able to upgrade their character by attending dance lessons as the deceased pop star, organize concerts for their fans to watch and also complete missions while building up his skills and furthering his popularity.
Users will be able to fight it out on the dance floor with other players of the game which was Michael Jackson's way of defeating his critics as well. Users can learn more than 80 different dance skills including he infamous moonwalk which became his most interesting and well known dance move in his repertoire throughout his career.
The game is an interesting one and just goes to show how popular he is an an entertainer even well after his career has come to an end. Watch as you take control of his career and build him from the ground up into the greatest entertainer of all time.

Comments about Evans Marching G2 Tenor Head:
We use this on our tenors in the school band and they are very durable some eighth grader came through and knocked my quints over and i thad a carrier on them idk why and we got them back on the stand and played them and they sounded still sounded brand new
Comments about Evans Marching G2 Tenor Head:
I bought this because it was the only thing I could find for my single 6" roto-the only one I kept from a set I didn't use anymore. I use this mounted into my practice kit where the 3rd tom would have gone in my Rogers big "R" cluster rack mount. I know it's not for the intended use so this rating is slightly inappropriate. It does not give off the ring I'd like but it will suffice. Maybe after a little more break-in? Good price though and good resource for finding these smaller heads!
Comments about Evans Marching G2 Tenor Head:
The Evans marching G2 tenor heads are not kidding around. I've used pretty much every head on the market from Remo for this application and they all seem to lack the warmth and clarity of the Evans heads. I've used Clear and Ebony Pinstripes and Emperors as well as the Renaissance Emperors in the past. None can touch the beautiful tones that the Evans heads produce. The Remos seem to lack the more sophisticated sound of the Evans heads. Most of the Remos are too tinny for my taste and they lean towards the brighter side. If you are looking for tenor heads I'd go with these over anything else. If you do decide to go with Remos (cringe) I recomend only Clear Pinstripes and Renaissance Emperors, the other models aren't worth looking at. The Ebony series is horrible for marching applications, since they drop all the time from sun, humidity, and temperature which is critical for a marching head. The clear emperors just don't have a good tone, too ringy, tinny, and bright for any use.

Tell me, O wise one: What does a flambéed French saint have to do with the Rose City? I ask because recently, in Laurelhurst, I came upon the improbable statue of one Joan of Arc.
—Koan of Arc
Whatever floats your boat, Koan. Still, I hope you wiped her off when you were done—we just had that thing gilded.
But seriously, folks: The Jeanne d'Arc that so dominates the roundabout at Northeast 39th Avenue and Glisan Street is a full-size reproduction of a statue that still stands at the Place des Pyramides in Paris. It was given to Portland in 1924 by Dr. Henry Waldo Coe, who'd seen it in France and thought it was cool.
Still, why a French saint and not, say, a beaver with a salmon in its mouth, riding a bear? Well, I know you'll find this hard to believe, but throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, France was basically America's girlfriend. For years, the two love-struck nations exchanged gooey mash notes in the form of statuary, including the Statue of Liberty.
Coe, as smitten as anyone, decided that a reproduction of Emmanuel Frémiet's Joan of Arc would be a good way to slip our old lady the tongue while also commemorating the Americans who perished on French soil in World War I.
Incidentally, we're not the only U.S. city with a copy of this particular Joan—Philadelphia has one, too. They call theirs "Joanie on the Pony," which I think we should straight-up steal.
Eventually, we decided that, while being overrun by Germany in one war was tragic, it happening twice was simply careless, and France, for her part, decided we were just dicks, which we are. Thus, our nations' affair came to an end. At least we'll always have the world's largest hood ornament to remember it by.

The Carbon Cross Country team enjoyed the fruits of having the home field advantage for the only time the regular season.
The Carbon girls finished second as a team and the boys took fourth at the combination region and invitational run. Against region teams the Dino runners took first for the girls and third for the boys.
Individual finishes had Carbon's Garrett Marsing scorching the course for the boys with a top finish of 16:10. Regan Powell took close second place in the girl's race with a personal best of 18:49, losing only to the top Uintah runner.
Coach Tellise Allen was very happy with all her runners.The course was at the Carbon Country Club and plotted out at just over three miles in length.
For the boys Justin Hepworth finished in second for the Dinos with 12th overall in 17:18. Then it was Skyler Larsen in 24th at 18:07 and Luke Olsen in 28 at 18:15. Brandon Hepworth and Thory VanDyke also had solid runs.
In the girls race it was Rachel Goodrich taking fifth overall in 19:57 not far behind Powell to grab the Dinos second spot. She was followed by Susannah Ohlwiler in 11th at 20:20 and Diana Olsen at 20:54. Madi Black rounded off the Dino girls with a 24:36.
The team also ran in the Wasatch relays on Saturday. It is run in the same format as the grass relays. Carbon did not field a full slate of seven as most teams, but the four runners coach Allen took from the girls and the boys did very well.
Marsing again had a scorching run and actually beat his time on the home course. He took 3rd overall with a personal best on a hilly grass course. Powell also did well for the girls with a 4th overall finish, leading her team to fourth place as a team even though they were short runners.
These wins are impressive as most of the schools competing were 4A and 5A schools, according to Allen.
Carbon runners head to Moab today for an Invitational Meet.

Under regulations prescribed by the Secretary, the term of enlistment of any enlisted member may, by voluntary written agreement, be extended and re-extended for a period not exceeding six full years from the date of expiration of the then-existing term of enlistment, and subsequent to such date an enlisted member who so extends his term of enlistment shall receive the same pay and allowances in all respects as though regularly discharged and reenlisted immediately upon expiration of his term of enlistment. However, the total of all such extensions of an enlistment may not exceed six years. No such extension shall operate to deprive the enlisted member concerned, upon discharge at the termination thereof, of any right, privilege, or benefit to which he would have been entitled if his term of enlistment had not been so extended.

Foscoe Firemen and other emergency teams have cleared the scene where they spent the night working a tractor trailer wreck on Holloway Mountain road—a wreck that involved a truck carrying hazardous materials on the curvy road. The call came in about 11:30 last night—that the truck overturned on the gravel portion of the road in the "S" curve—causing an out-of-county haz-mat team to respond from Hudson. The truck and the hydrogen sulfide cargo were finally righted and the truck righted and safely removed.

|Western NC Emerging From Recession?
|Written by Steve Frank

Could western North Carolina finally be emerging from 'The Great Recession?' Signs may point to just that, with the dark cloud of uncertainty from the Feds over the 'fiscal cliff.' But the latest report from the Center for Economic Research and Policy Analysis (CEPA) at ASU shows economic activity
in Western North Carolina increasing for the sixth straight month, bumping up another 0.4 of a point in October. The index that tracks the level of economic activity in 25 western North Carolina counties, and has now returned the Western North Carolina Economic Index to its pre-recession level. Dr. Todd Cherry, director of the Center for Economic Research and Policy Analysis, called the progress "promising," and said, "During the last six months we have seen consistently strong gains in regional economic activity. Such sustained improvements are needed to realize better job market conditions and this appears to be playing out now with the region adding about 15,000 jobs in the past two months." According to the index, all counties across the WNC region experienced increases in seasonally adjusted county-level employment. "While improvements in the job market have occurred across the region, some areas have gained more than others," Cherry said. In the region's metro areas, unemployment fell by 0.3 points in Asheville and by 0.4 points in Hickory-Morganton-Lenoir, to 7.3 and 10.4 percent, respectively. Seasonally adjusted unemployment rates decreased in 19 of the 25 WNC counties. Looking over the last 12-month period, all but one WNC county experienced decreases in unemployment. Unemployment rates in Caldwell, McDowell and Catawba decreased the most over this period by 3.3, 2.7 and 2.5 points, respectively. Ashe County recorded the only increase, 0.1 of a percent.
