Woman: An Intimate Geographyby Natalie Angier
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Natalie Angier's Woman enchanted readers and critics everywhere and marked an important shift in feminist consciousness. This self-proclaimed "scientific fantasia of womanhood" moves beyond the polemics of the '80's and '90's toward an enlightened subversiveness that "gives feminism a cheerful, evolutionary twist" (Katha Pollitt, The Nation).
Woman is a mesmerizing anatomy and physiology lesson that culminates in a fascinating revelation about the ways in which cultural biases have influenced research in evolutionary psychology (the study of the biological bases of behavior). In lively, elegant prose, Angier shows just how natural selection has been misused as a model for confirming gender stereotypes, such as the idea that women are innately monogamous while men are natural philanderers. In so doing, she has galvanized both scientific thought and feminist rhetoric, and deftly combined the two to ignite a new wave of feminism that scientists, feminists, and the media have aptly dubbed "liberation biology."
But Natalie Angier doesn't just point fingers, she offers optimistic alternatives, and Woman is a seminal work with universal appeal that "proposes revolutionary possibilities for both men and women" (Gloria Steinem). This is a book that will be read and discussed for many years to come, and that will endure as an essential read for anyone interested in how biology affects who we are — as women, as men, and as human beings.
"It's a book not just for women. With its massive data on the working biology of both sexes, skepticism of dominant theories about dominant males, and candor about the speculative quality of its own feminist hypotheses, it stands as a benchmark in male-female relations in the late 20th century." USA Today
"A treasure chest of did-you-knows...hits the bull's-eye every time." Newsweek
"A tantalizing, witty journey through female biology, debunking many entrenched stereotypes and myths and a lot of questionable science." Salon
"Natalie Angier has that rare dual talent: a true passion for science combined with a poet's linguistic flair. In this lively dissection of womanhood, she places everything from estrogen to the politics of motherhood beneath her flawlessly focused microscope, offering innumerable tidbits both surprising and fascinating." People, Book of the Week
"Intimate and idiosyncratic...dismantles the misogynist mythologies once advanced as the scientific gospel of the female body...Angier's brilliant and witty fantasia will inspire women to believe in their powers." The Boston Globe
"Natalie Angier's dazzling new book calls upon biology and evolution to celebrate the female body. Its upbeat message. . . is supported by rigorous scientific underpinnings." The New York Times
"A tour de force, a wonderful, entertaining and informative book." The New York Times Book Review
"Angier's Woman is as good as it gets." Los Angeles Times
"If Our Bodies, Ourselves has become the bible of women's bodies, let Woman: An Intimate Geography be our Shakespeare." Peggy Orenstein, Elle
"The chief manifesto of the new 'femaleist' thinking." Time
A new and updated edition of Natalie Angier's best-selling tour of the female body, published for its fifteen-year anniversary.
National Book Award finalist
A New York Times notable book
"A tour de force, a womderful, entertaining and informative book." —Abraham Verghese, New York Times Book Review
After fifteen years in print, Woman remains an essential guide to everything from organs to orgasms and hormones to hysterectomies. With her characteristic clarity, insight, and sheer exuberance of language, bestselling author Natalie Angier cuts through the still prevalent myths and misinformation surrounding the female body, that most enigmatic of evolutionary masterpieces. Woman is a witty and assured narrative tour de force with a reliable grasp of science.
Updated throughout and with a new introduction bringing readers up to date on the latest science in evolutionary psychology and hormone replacement therapy, this new edition of Woman reinvigorates Angier's joyful vision of womanhood.
With clarity, insight, and panache, Natalie Angier explores that most enigmatic of evolutionary masterpieces, the female body. Incorporating new material on the latest science and changes in our understanding of evolutionary psychology, Angier guides readers through everything from organs to orgasm, hormones to hysterectomies.
In Woman, Angier shows how cultural biases have influenced evolutionary psychology and led to dubious conclusions about "female nature," such as the idea that women are innately monogamous while men are philanderers. But she doesnt just point fingers; with enlightened subversiveness, she offers a joyful, fresh vision of womanhood. Woman is an essential read for anyone interested in how biology affects who we are—as women, as men, and as human beings.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [403]-419) and index.

Nov. 1, 2012
MADISON, Wis. -- The Wisconsin women's basketball team defeated UW-La Crosse 90-39 on Thursday night at the Kohl Center in the first exhibition game of the 2012 season. Four Badgers scored double-digits in the victory.
"I'm very pleased with our performance tonight," said head coach Bobbie Kelsey. "Everyone played. We looked pretty good in aspects of our game."
Junior Morgan Paige scored Wisconsin's first points in the game with a pair of free throws, while freshman guard Nicole Bauman was the first newcomer to score at the Kohl Center with a 3-pointer to put the Badgers up 13-7.
From there the offense took off, and Wisconsin went on a 27-8 run to end the half. Wisconsin was up 40-15 after the first half, with only five turnovers and 17 points off of UW-La Crosse turnovers.
The second half started a little slow, and saw the Eagles go on a 5-0 run. Jacki Gulczynksi scored a layup off of a Bauman missed three, which sparked a 16-0 run for Wisconsin. The Badgers recorded 23 steals and 42 points off of turnovers, which mainly came in the second half.
With six minutes left in the game, the Badgers went up 71-30 with a layup from AnnMarie Brown. A Badger steal by Dakota Whyte was finished with a layup by Tessa Cichy to put the Badgers up 79-33. Wisconsin hit the 90-point mark with a shot from the block by Gulczynski.
Gulczynksi was the Badgers' leading scorer with 18 points, going four-for-five from the free throw line. The forward also grabbed five rebounds on the night. Three other Badgers contributed in the double-digits in the victory, with Brown scoring 11 and Bauman and Whyte scoring 10 a piece.
"Jacki has really worked on her shooting and has really taken the open shot when she has it, " said Kelsey. "I am happy for her. I think she is a hard working kid, as a lot of the others are, but she puts in a lot of time with her shooting."
Wisconsin out-rebounded UW-La Crosse 40-27 on the night. The Badgers also posted an impressive 56.1 field goal percentage and held the Eagles to 27.7 percent. The bench proved to be important for Wisconsin, as they scored 47 of the team's 90 points.
Wisconsin hosts Concordia-St. Paul on Sunday at 2 p.m. for the last exhibition game of the season. Fans in attendance will receive a free team poster.

HALF THE GANG OF FOUR ARRESTEDWalsh, Greenwood charged with securities fraud
Amazing. It never ends. On the same day we lauded the current Islanders owner for an Oscar-winning documentary about his charity, two more former Islanders owners are arrested. This time it's Stephen Walsh and Paul Greenwood of "Gang of Four" fame on securities fraud charges. Greenwood was the quiet one; never spoke with him when I worked for the NYI.

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
- Imaging tests, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), can provide information about heart and blood vessels. The tests let doctors can see the amount of blood vessel narrowing and vessel wall thickness. This information may help diagnose and treat heart disease and other conditions that lead to heart attacks. Better MRI methods are needed to improve heart disease diagnosis, especially by avoiding the use of radiation. Researchers are testing new techniques to improve the quality of heart MRI, compared with more complex studies like catheterization or angiography.
- To compare heart MRI techniques with other tests used to diagnose heart disease.
- People at least 18 years of age who either have or may have heart disease, or are healthy volunteers.
- Participants will be screened with a physical exam, medical history, and blood tests.
- They will have an angiography to study the inside of blood vessels. This test is an x-ray study of the blood vessels. It will be done either separately or as part of a set of tests to diagnose possible heart disease.
- Participants will have at least one and up to five MRI scans. The scans will involve different methods of studying the heart and blood vessels. Participants may also have a computed tomography scan to confirm the findings of an MRI scan.
- No treatment will be provided as part of this protocol.

|Official Title:
|Magnetic Resonance of Body, Arterial Wall and Angiography Imaging for Non-Invasive Assessment of Arterial Distensibility, Endothelial Dysfunction and Atherosclerotic Disease Using 1.5T High Field (3T) MRI: A Technical Development Study of Cardiac and Body
- Coronary segmental involvement scores [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|June 2011
Specialized imaging techniques now available allow a unique opportunity to characterize the micro-environment of the human body. Magnetic Resonance (MR) vascular wall imaging and angiography (MRA) are developing techniques that permit non-invasive evaluation of arterial and venous structures without the need for x-ray based catheter angiography. In addition, vessel wall imaging provides unprecedented non-invasive tools to assess vascular endothelial function. While dramatic progress has been made to cardiovascular MR imaging in the last few years, there are still substantial limitations in the resolution, accuracy, and reproducibility of MRA and wall imaging in the comprehensive structural and functional evaluation of coronary artery. The first aim of this study is to develop and optimize clinical imaging protocols and techniques for fast high-resolution coronary MRA and wall imaging for the assessment of coronary and other main arteries structural, distensibility, and endothelial functional parameters. Technique optimization and performance evaluation will be accomplished in normal subjects without known or suspected coronary atherosclerosis. The second aim of this protocol is to evaluate early MR imagery signs of arterial structural, distensibility, and endothelial functional disorders associated with atherosclerosis in a cohort of patients with known or suspected coronary atherosclerosis. Results from accelerated high-resolution MRA will be correlated with corresponding Computerized Tomography Coronary Angiogram (CTA) results. The third aim of this protocol is to develop, implement, and optimize new non-invasive methods for characterization of the micro-environment in the thoracic and abdominal area utilizing specialized techniques such as MR Spectroscopy, MR Elastography, and blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) imaging. The long-term objective of this study and research initiative is to optimize coronary MRA, wall, and body imaging techniques to the point that it can reliably be used for routine prevention and assessment of early atherosclerosis and other diseases.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older

|Organic foods seem like they should be healthier -- but does the evidence support that idea? One new study published in the journal PLOS One found that organic strawberries contained higher levels of certain phytochemicals, including vitamin C, than conventionally-farmed varieties. In addition, the soil in the organic strawberry farms was healthier and more genetically diverse. The finding contrasts with other research, however, that has found no better nutrition from organic foods. We'll talk about the current state of research into organic foods, and what remains to be discovered.

CANTON Narrow halls, tight corners and a basement war room are all part of the uncomfortable quarters in which St. Lawrence County District Attorney Nicole M. Duve and her staff do the work that she said has been misconstrued over the past weeks.
Ms. Duve took members of the media on a tour of her office Wednesday in an effort to help clear up what she called misconceptions and distortions about her office put out by Mary E. Rain, Republican candidate for district attorney.
I think there is a lot of misinformation out there, Ms. Duve said. The public is getting their information in sound bites, and that doesnt do justice to the work done in the office.
Hoping to answer questions about her raised by her opponent, Ms. Duve said she wanted the public to know how hard her staff works.
We work hard on a number of levels in a number of different ways to make sure we are doing what we can to enhance our resources, Ms. Duve said. We cant do it all by ourselves, so we have to work with other agencies, and that relationship is very, very important.
Boxes of files line the walls of her office, which is divided into three parts in the St. Lawrence County Courthouse.
As you can see, we dont work out of the Ritz-Carlton, Ms. Duve said. There is more space that we have talked to the county about trying to pull into this office space so that we could get more space for our folks to work, because it is a bit of a sardine can down in the basement.
Ms. Duve said there files that are so large they dont fit in a file jacket and require several boxes.
The district attorneys office has thousands of open cases, Ms. Duve said.
If you count the stuff that has been lingering and hasnt been resolved for one reason or another it could be that people have fled the jurisdiction, it could be because we are waiting for the court to set a trial, it could be because we are waiting for a motion or what have you probably closer to 8,000, Ms. Duve said.
Over the time she has been in office, Ms. Duve said, her administration has brought in more than $1 million in grant and asset forfeiture money, funds that are seized from criminal defendants upon a conviction, usually because they have been involved in drug crimes.
We take that money and we use it to enhance law enforcement and prosecution efforts, Ms. Duve said.
Securing renovations for needed office space in the district attorneys office, funding a full-time assistant district attorney position, providing training for assistant district attorneys and law enforcement and obtaining video recording equipment for police agencies in the area are all part of that enhancement.
But while efforts are being made to help prosecution and investigation efforts throughout the county, Ms. Duve said, comments by Ms. Rain have led to a distortion of what the office does.
I think it does a disservice to the members of the public, the folks in St. Lawrence County, she said. To suggest that I dont work hard every day to make sure that my office can do what it can for the people of St. Lawrence County is far from the truth.
Since the start of her Accountability Tour, Ms. Rain has been taking unrelenting shots at Ms. Duve and her office, saying they have failed to prosecute criminals.
If any of you, your spouse, your child, your parent, your loved one is a victim of crime tonight, who would you want prosecuting your case? Ms. Rain said in a release promoting a rally Tuesday in Ogdensburg. My opponent may forget about your case, fail to indict the criminals responsible, or drop the ball at trial. I think about it every day, and that is why I ran for district attorney.
Ms. Duve said victims families should not have been made a part of Ms. Rains campaign.
I think it is unfortunate and it is disheartening that victims of crime get hauled into the middle of something like this, but that is not a choice that I made and I dont intend to go there, Ms. Duve said.
Since 2008, Ms. Rain said, the county had seen 444 cases dismissed, 10 acquittals at trial and 267 reductions on felony cases under Ms. Duve, but the district attorney is puzzled by Ms. Rains numbers. She said that she doesnt know where her opponent gets them and that those numbers dont paint a clear picture.
In a Sept. 27 letter to the editor, Ms. Rain said, In head-to-head matchups with my opponent at trial, I won 12 out of 18 times. That is an amazing statistic two out of every three times I went to trial against the DA, I won.
Ms. Duve said she and her opponent have faced off against each other in the courtroom on only two occasions, in both of which Ms. Duve prevailed.
She and I have done two felony trials head-to-head against each other. Just two, Ms. Duve said. I won them both.
Those two trials were Bruce M. Galloway, the Hammond man who received an eight-year state prison sentence for sexually abusing two girls in August 2010, and Brian K. McCottery, the Oswegatchie man who will serve three years in state prison for menacing state troopers after he fired a 12-gauge shotgun during a standoff in March 2010.
You can cite numbers all you want, but if you are not citing detail, your numbers can be misleading and misrepresent true circumstances, and that is part of the problem with just spewing numbers with no basis for those numbers, Ms. Duve said.

Comments about Rocky Mountain Slides Poncha Bullet Guitar Slide:
Great slide. Gives unique, "thick" tone that works well for blues. Very comfortable and easy to hold. The only downside is that it can get a little slick when you sweat (no more than most slides though). Definitely recommend!
Comments about Rocky Mountain Slides Poncha Bullet Guitar Slide:
I've been a lap slide guitar player for years and this is the first slide that I've played that truly warms the tone. The ceramic is noticeably lighter than the steel and the unique grip makes it easier to hold onto. I contacted RMSC and Doc was very helpful in obtaining other ceramic slides. Very cool. Now I've played almost everyone in his line and been pleased with them all. If you like this one make sure you check out the "Rail Rock-It."

Jorge Mario Bergoglio (76) is the 266th and current Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, elected on 13 March 2013. A native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, he was ordained as a priest in 1969. He served as head of the Society of Jesus in Argentina from 1973 to 1979. He chose the papal name Francis in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi. He is the first pope to be a Jesuit (Poverty is one of their three vows, with Chastity and Obedience), the first to come from the Americas, and to come from the Southern Hemisphere. Let us not forget that the Jesuits, missionaries as they may have been, were the confessors of kings nonetheless. They taught me for 13 years!
Francis is the first non-European pope since St. Gregory III, who died in 741. On a pilgrimage to Rome, Saint Francis of Assisi joined the poor in begging at St. Peter's Basilica.The experience moved him to live in poverty. He later founded the Franciscan Order. For the 1.2 billion Catholics, it seems that the Church will be from now on the Church of the poor and downtrodden, more than it has ever been, which brings about a part of the Sermon of the Mount that always gave me pause (Luke 6):
"Blessed are you who are poor; the kingdom of God is yours. But woe upon you who are rich; you have your comfort already".
It appears from Jesus's own teachings that one has to be poor to inherit the Kingdom of God. What does that say about working hard to earn a good income and give a good life to one's family and good education to one's children? At first look, Jesus's Church seems to be denigrating capitalism and rejecting the accumulation of wealth, but then remember the Parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14-30:
It tells of a master who was leaving his home to travel, so he entrusted his money of 8 talents to his servants. One servant receives five talents, the second two talents, and the third one talent, according to their respective abilities. Returning after a long absence, the master asks his servants for an accounting. The first two servants explain that they have each put their money to work and doubled the value of the property they were entrusted with, and so they are each rewarded. The third servant, however, has merely hidden his talent in a hole in the ground, so the master punishes him:"You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn't sow, and gather where I didn't scatter. You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest. Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents. For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn't have, even that which he has will be taken away. Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnawing of teeth."
This famous parable does seem to stress profitability, banking, return on investment and all other capitalist tenets. The "poor" servant was actually punished and the rich is rewarded. What gives?I do not think Jesus ever meant to chastise the wealthy or to condone the lazy who choses to stay poor. Hence some of the misinterpretation among members of the clergy who are veering left and advocating "fair" distribution of wealth in sort of a social democratic regime.The left brings with it: contraception, abortion, gay marriage, removal of God from the pledge of allegiance, abolishing school prayers, nativity scenes and Christmas trees, and other ungodly measures. I am certain the catholic clergy does not support any of that so why would they even consider voting left? If it is to help the poor, this is a sheer human responsibility that neither right nor left has a monopoly on, except the left demagogues use it more to their advantage. There is a lot more charity giving in the USA than anywhere else in the world and most of it is done by rich people and corporations. Members of the clergy should remember that when they take a political stance. History gives us a plethora of examples of leftist regimes where religious freedom was all but abolished and people's incomes were equalized using the LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR, meaning they all became equally poor.
I do not believe the Church wants that. Pope Francis maybe wants to reduce the Vatican's Pomp and Circumstance (Armenian style), lavish expenditures and trappings of wealth. That would be commendable and I wish our government will emulate him. I trust both Francis and Obama remember that they are Pope and President of both rich AND poor.
Honoring and Aiding the Poor and SHARING with others are NOT to be confused with Glorifying Poverty and the sense of Entitlement

Have one available all the time. A great dish! Love the beef flavor. Tender noodles and meat. It makes two big meals for me. With a small salad and a little wine it's a feast! I just bought four so I won't run out for a while. November 27, 2013
Good It was very tasty, but didn't sit well with me. Don't let that keep you from ordering it, though, as I have health issues. Reminded me of some good chicken/noodle dish I had long ago in Indiana Amish country. March 11, 2013
The best chicken soup I ever ate That about says it all--it's so wonderful, I would like to order a crateload of it. One can feeds three people with good, solid servings. The tastiness and nutrition of this product are amazing. Go get yourself some! January 7, 2013
Still Among the Missing I was hoping to find a recipe that was as close to what Grandma made as possible. I was surprised that was not to be. Although I am sure the product is a good one, it was not the taste I was looking for. I will continue on my endeavor. You never know when you might come across it. Thank you asking. December 10, 2012
DELICIOUS The broth and noodles taste like Grandma's! Love it! November 30, 2012

This medication is used to treat certain types of cancer (such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative diseases). Imatinib works by stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells (tumors). It also works by causing cancer cells to die.
Take this medication by mouth with a meal and a full glass of water (8 ounces or 240 milliliters), usually once or twice daily or as directed by your doctor. Do not crush the tablets. The US manufacturer recommends that if you have trouble swallowing the tablets whole, you may dissolve your dose in a glass of water or apple juice. The amount of liquid will vary depending on your dose. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more detailed instructions. Stir the mixture well until the tablet(s) dissolve, and drink immediately.
The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. In children, the dosage is based on body size. Do not increase your dose or take this medication more often than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and the risk of serious side effects may be increased.
Avoid eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while using this medication unless your doctor or pharmacist says you may do so safely. Grapefruit can increase the chance of side effects with this medicine. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details.

This medication can lower the body's ability to fight an infection. Notify your doctor promptly if you develop any signs of an infection such as fever, chills, or persistent sore throat.
Imatinib sometimes causes side effects due to the rapid destruction of cancer cells (tumor lysis syndrome). To lower your risk, drink plenty of fluids unless your doctor directs you otherwise. Also, your doctor may prescribe an additional medication. Tell your doctor right away if you have symptoms such as: low back/side pain (flank pain), pink/bloody urine, change in the amount of urine, painful urination, muscle spasms/weakness.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, seek immediate medical attention if you notice any of the following symptoms of a serious allergic reaction: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), dizziness, trouble breathing.

What is a HSA?
A Health Savings Accounts (HSA) allows you to save, invest and budget for eligible healthcare expenses on a pre-tax basis. There are several advantages to establishing a HSA account:
- Reduces your taxable income. Your contributions to your HSA are tax-free, so you keep more of your paycheck
- The money always belongs to you. The monies in your account regardless if contributed by you or your employer will always be yours to use – even if you retire or leave Wright State. In addition, you can pass your investment onto your heirs if never needed.
- Your account earns interest tax-free. Your account earns interest, and the interest is never taxed, as long as you do not exceed the annual contribution limits.
- You control the money. Upon reaching a specified account level, you decide how to invest your monies including dollars received from Wright State.
- You can save the money for future needs. Even if you do not have healthcare needs today, your HSA funds will be there in the future – even after retirement.
- It's easy to use the funds. You will have a debit card and can purchase checks.
Due to the favorable tax treatment for HSA, the IRS has strict guidelines as to who can qualify for contributions to an HSA account. For new enrollees, you will need to certify that the following situations do not exist. Enrollment and management of your HSA is your responsibility. If your situation changes at any time, for any reason, you are personally liability to ensure you take the necessary steps to ensure compliance with IRS rules. The following is required to be able to contribute to an HSA:
- You must be enrolled in a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)
- You cannot be covered by another non-high deductible medical plan
- Cannot be covered by a Healthcare Flexible Spending Account
- Cannot be enrolled for Medicare benefits - neither you nor Wright State can contribute money to an HSA once you're enrolled in Medicare – but you can continue to spend the money even if no longer funding the account
- Cannot be claimed as a dependent on another person's tax return
- Cannot be enrolled in any other non-qualified medical plan.
- Cannot be covered by TRICARE or be eligible to receive VA medical benefits

You can use your HSA funds to pay for out-of-pocket medical expenses such as doctor office visits, prescriptions – the costs that apply to your medical deductibles. You can also use these dollars for other eligible expenses such as dental and vision -- costs which do not apply to your medical deductibles. Also, looking towards the future, your HSA account can be used to fund long-term care insurance, COBRA premiums, and Medicare insurance premiums. For a listing of eligible expenses, please visit https://www.mywealthcareonline.com/fifththirdhsa/Resources/HSAResources/EligibleandIneligibleHSAExpenses.aspx
and www.irs.gov.

If desired, you can start your initial deductions in January by electing a HSA contribution via the Online Enrollment, for any dollar amount and any number of pay periods. Your elections can be stopped or started at any time during the year. They do not however, roll over into the next calendar year; so remember, if you desire contributions in January, you must elect via the Online Enrollment. Yourself or another person can also make an "after-tax" contribution to your HSA.

We're already well acquainted with HTC's One X and One S phones, but yesterday, as CNet joked, the company unveiled "One phone to rule them all." Just to be clear, that's the HTC One, no additional letter required.
This latest HTC flagship device may only have been unveiled 24 hours ago, but already the opinions, reviews and hype are adding up to a potential blockbuster for HTC.
Gizmodo quipped that it's "exactly how you're supposed to build a phone," highlighting not only the device's sleek, lightweight design but also its top of the line screen and its interface which, though this is an Android phone, has some similarities to a Windows Phone.
Let's talk about the looks: at 4.7 inches in size The HTC One boasts a beautiful and sleek aluminum body that's lightweight with a slight curve on the back. Its Gorilla glass 2 screen, according to Gizmodo, "is gorgeous." With a resolution of 1,920 × 1,080 and pixel density of 468ppi, we'd have to agree that it's one of the best out there right now.
On the inside of this Android-powered beauty is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.7 gigahertz quad-core processor, with 2GB of RAM and a 2,300 mAh embedded battery.
Another feature everyone seems really excited about is the HTC One's cameras. The Front-facing one is fairly standard at 2.1 MP, but the rear-facer, though only 4 MP, is totally unique.
As Engadget notes, "before you go apoplectic with rage – the company's magical new imaging technology means that the One's 4-megapixel sensor isn't the slap in the face with a wet fish you'd assume it to be." Rather, as CNet reports, he camera will better pick up light and will work better in the dark than rival smartphone cameras such as the iPhone 5 and Galaxy S III."
Another nice thing about the new camera on the HTC One is its "Zoe" picture feature, which lets you take photos as short video clips, with the camera actually starting a second before you press the button and continuing for three more seconds.
"By scrolling through the photo gallery, shots come alive like something out of 'Harry Potter'," writes CNet. "In addition, collections of photos from a specific event are automatically collected and joined with music to create 'Zoe Highlight' videos."
Like previous flagship phones, the HTC One also integrates Beats audio technology, and it's got dual front-facing "Boom Sound" speakers for a pretty great video-watching experience.
We'll definitely be keeping our eye on the HTC One as it begins rolling out this March, and we can't wait to get our hands on one, or to start stacking up the accessories for the latest and probably best HTC phone to date.

Be Aware of Terry's "Catch and Shoot" Ability
I'm a big fan of Jason Terry. The guy can simply fill it up and knows that he's much better served being a reserve for the Mavericks. He's not a point guard, he's more of a small shooting guard. Sort of like a smaller Vinny Johnson 2.0. He doesn't complain, he plays hard and has been a huge part of the Mavs success over the years.
He's shooting a career low 33% from deep this year, but he has as quick of a release as anyone in the league. That's something that Toney Douglas, Raymond Felton and Landry Fields will have to keep an eye on.

Rangers @ Thrashers
Philips Arena, 7:30 p.m. Friday
Rangers record: 29-23-4
Thrashers record: 24-22-10
The Blueshirts know that tomorrow night's game is a must win.
Both players and fans alike had hoped that this might be the year that the Rangers comfortably slid into the playoffs without having to fight tooth and nail for the one of the bottom playoff positions, but the team's five-game losing streak seems to have temporarily put an end to that dream. The Rangers have not been playing badly; their forty-seven shots on against the Red Wings Monday night can attest to the fact that the team has been generating a steady offensive threat. The team has continued to demonstrate commendable effort and passion, but unfortunately, at this point in the season all of the Rangers need are points in the standings.
Like the first time these two teams met this season, the Thrashers are in a situation very similar to the Rangers. After starting off the season as one of the Eastern Conference's surprise contenders, the Thrashers have dropped four straight and have just two wins in thirteen games. Like the Rangers, the Thrashers have been slipping dangerously low in the standings. Unlike the Rangers, the Thrashers are currently out of a playoff position.
The Thrashers also only lost Monday night's game by a one-goal margin, but the Thrashers scored twice as many goals in their game as the Blueshirts did in theirs. Dustin Byfuglien, despite going thirteen games without a single point prior to Monday's game, leads the Thrashers in goals and points coming into Friday night's game. (He also leads the league in goals scored by a defenseman.) Andrew Ladd is another player who broke a goal-scoring draught, tallying the fourth and final Thrashers' goal for his first in seven games. Ex-Ranger Nik Antropov scored the third goal for the Thrashers, and Brian Little came up big with two assists. Both Antropov and Little have been racking up steady points for the otherwise sinking Atlanta team.
Captain Chris Drury's luckless season of injuries took another turn for the worse when Coach Tortorella announced after Wednesday's practice that Drury would undergo exploratory knee surgery and miss up to six weeks of action. Although Drury has not posed much of an offensive threat for the Rangers, this latest installment in the Drury injury saga will undoubtedly leave a mental mark on this team.
Henrik Lundqvist is expected to start in net for the Blueshirts after being pulled in the February 3rd game against the Devils and sitting out in favor of backup Marty Biron against the Canadiens and the Red Wings. Lundqvist usually has stellar bounce-back games, and he will definitely be counted upon to come up big for his team tomorrow night in Atlanta.
The Rangers held two practices since the last game, putting heavy emphasis on the woeful power play. The Rangers' power play is currently 3 for 31, and the Rangers went 0 for 9 on the man-advantage in the past two games. Tortorella tried Wojtek Wolski on the point for the first power play unit and placed Derek Stepan back on the point for the second. Both Wolski and Stepan have experienced great success on the power play point earlier in their careers.
The playoff race has begun, and the Rangers and the Thrashers are two struggling teams fighting for the same position in a tight Eastern Conference race. The Rangers have been getting chances, but not pulling through for the finish. If the team can keep sustaining offensive pressure and jump-start the anemic power play, good bounces—and wins-- will finally come their way.

|Lesson Six: Introduction to the Signs of the Zodiac
Each one of us is unique - we have our own individual way of seeing ourselves, of perceiving the world, and of reacting to particular circumstances. And yet, in spite of this uniqueness, there are also recognisable and predictable patterns within the human psyche. The fascination of astrology is that, once we have an individual's birth chart in front of us, we can assess how that particular individual is likely to react to certain situations.
An example of this which I often use is to imagine twelve people, each representing one of the twelve signs of the zodiac, waiting at a bus stop. They are on their way to work but the bus is late. How does each of these signs react? Obviously, the descriptions below are only caricatures, since nobody is a pure representation of only one sign, but the fact that these caricatures are so often recognisable illustrates the fact that there are certain inherent behaviour patterns which we all share to some extent. To begin with, we would only expect there to be ten people in this bus queue, because Aries and Sagittarius are likely to be missing.
Aries has probably never waited for a bus in his life. He simply can't bear to wait or to be dependent on other people or on situations outside his control. He needs to be in the driving seat himself. He has a set of rollerblades, a bicycle, a motorbike or a fast car to take him wherever he wants, whenever he needs, so that he can be independent and free to act instantaneously.
Taurus is realistic, practical and normally placid. She knows that everything takes time and that the bus will eventually arrive. She has a remarkable ability to live in the present. There is no point getting stressed or worried. After all, it is a beautiful day - the sun in shining, the grass is green, the trees are in full leaf, the flowers in the nearby park are blooming and their smell fills the air. Life is good, as she breathes deeply, taking it all in.
Gemini is flexible and adaptable. He can use the extra time to do those hundred things that need catching up with. Using his mobile phone, he telephones work to let them know he will be late, speaks to his work colleague about his diary and meetings and makes alternative plans. While he is about it, he phones a friend to make plans to see the latest film that night, catches up by phoning his mother back, rings his sister or brother for a chat, makes changes to his diary, and finally takes out one of the two books or magazines he always carries with him for situations like this.
Cancer, on the other hand, feels personally let down, and can be thrown into despair and a curious depression by the late arrival of the bus. Retreating into her shell, she remembers clearly what it felt like in her childhood when her mother was late picking her up from school. Her stomach churns at the memory, and she remembers clearly the feeling of abandonment as she waited, all alone, in the deserted playground at the end of the school day. How typical it is that, while she is always there for other people, she can't rely on anyone else being there for her.
For Leo, on the other hand, this is an unexpected opportunity to gather an audience - a crowd of admirers whom he seeks to entertain with some kind of drama or performance.
Virgo is becoming increasingly anxious and has noticed that her blood pressure is rising. Delving into her organiser-briefcase, she extracts the stress pills from one pocket and the digestion pills from another. All the jobs she had set himself for the day have been thrown into chaos and, like Gemini, she phones the office to reorganise things, trying to keep the rising panic and tension out of her voice.
Libra springs into action and tries to calm Virgo down with reassurances and logical thinking, explaining that nobody will blame Virgo for being late since it is not her fault.
Meanwhile, Scorpio is planning what to do to the bus driver when the bus finally arrives. Under her calm exterior, Scorpio is an unexploded bomb which, if the other people in the bus queue are lucky, will not go off. Nevertheless, at some point this anger will inevitably be detonated, possibly later in the day towards an unsuspecting work colleague.
Like Aries, Sagittarius is also absent from the bus queue. It is possible that he jogs to work, in order to use up some of the enormous physical energy which is a feature of this sign. Alternatively, Sagittarius is just as likely to travel to work by chauffeur-driven limousine, or has hailed a passing cab - and to hell with the expense.
Capricorn waits with a grim sense of satisfaction and validation. She knew the bus would be late, since it validates her world-view that everyone else is incompetent and irresponsible. She decides that the bus driver must have been late in turning up for duty and, because she is head of department at her work, she also decides to do a survey of her subordinates' arrival times at work to see how much time is being wasted by the employees through this kind of irresponsibility.
Aquarius sees this late arrival as an opportunity to plan how the public transport system could be restructured. There must be a better way of managing this system, to enable ordinary people to get to work and contribute to the greater needs of society.
Pisces hasn't noticed that the bus is late, because she has drifted off into a world of her own.
Although these are, of course, gross caricatures of the signs, it may be that you can recognise the themes either in yourself or in people you know. What is also interesting is the way we react to each other, and how easy it is to blame or judge people for not responding to situations in the same way that we do. For example, Taurus may have no idea why Virgo is so tense, and considers this to be a complete waste of energy to no effect. Gemini has no idea why Cancer has become so emotional since, after all, the lateness of the bus has provided several opportunities to catch up on bits and pieces, which would not otherwise have presented themselves. Libra, who doesn't know what he feels about the situation personally, will do whatever he can to calm the situation for everyone else, since that will make him feel much better. Capricorn doesn't know why Leo is showing off so much; this kind of behaviour is unnecessarily attention-seeking and childish. Aquarius blames Taurus for taking the situation so philosophically - only by being public-spirited and joining the cause for better public transport can the situation be improved.

LOCKPORT, NY -- Friday, six Lockport families found out the Environmental Protection Agency will pay to move them into new homes.
The neighbors live along the contaminated Eighteenmile Creek in Lockport.
When Lockport got five inches of rain June 28, James Stiles' yard transformed into a two-and-a-half foot deep pond filled with contaminated creek water full of hazardous waste.
"There are cancer-causing agents in there. My family owned this home before. My mother, father and my mother was actually diagnosed with breast cancer. Then, after she fought that battle and won, she was diagnosed with MS," says Stiles.
Stiles grew up in Lockport along Eighteenmile Creek. It is something his three-year-old son won't get to experience.
"I could care less about the property and everything, but my family's safety is number one," says Stiles.
Eighteenmile Creek is now an EPA Superfund site, which Senator Chuck Schumer is working with the EPA to clean up and help the homeowners.
"EPA, they first just wanted to let them stay there and cover the place over with dirt and stuff. And that wouldn't have made any sense. First, if we have another storm, things would go down the drain, and second, you'd still have the toxins there," says Schumer.
Friday, the government announced it will relocate the people who live in six homes on Water Street, including Stiles.
Schumer's office says the cost to taxpayers at a quarter of a million dollars is much lower than what capping the soil would've been.
Stiles is relieved he will no longer have to plead his case to the EPA, and his family can start fresh somewhere new.
"I like knowing that I'm in a healthy and safe environment, too, so you can't put a price tag on that and memories are made no matter where at, so you know I'll make some more," says Stiles.
This is just the first of three phases of cleanup. The homeowners will find out more about how this process works at an August 13 meeting.
