CUMBERLAND — The softball seasons have passed and the names have come and gone, but one thing you could always count on year after year any time Lincoln and Cumberland played each other was a spirited, competitive duel -- a showdown that was usually going to be decided by one or two runs.
That's what the small gathering of fans that braved the chilly weather at Wednesday afternoon's Division I-North affair at Tucker Field expected from the two unbeaten rivals, but what they got was a shocking surprise.
The Lions pounded out 13 hits, three of them home runs, and received a masterful two-hitter from junior ace pitcher Lindsay Mayer that paved the way for a stunning 11-0 victory that was halted after six innings by the mercy rule.
"I definitely don't think anyone expected a mercy (rule game)," noted Lincoln assistant coach Kelly Ryan, "because Cumberland has a good program and it's always been a battle between these two teams. But the girls really came out fired up today and they really wanted this one."
Ryan, who was a two-time All-State player and a 2008 graduate of Mount St. Charles, ran the show for the winners after her father, first-year head coach Richard Ryan, was ejected after the top of the fourth inning after one of his players missed third base on what would have been a two-run homer by freshman Adriana Toro and was called out on an appeal play by the Clippers.
And speaking of Toro, the right fielder had the finest game of her young career by going 4-for-4 from the No. 2 spot in the lineup with three runs scored and a three-run homer in the sixth that gave the Lions a double-digit command.
Another standout freshman, second baseman Stacy Mayer, also drove in three runs by smacking a two-run homer in the top of the third to give the Lions a 6-0 command and adding a run-scoring double in the sixth for the game's last run.
And of course, there was Stacy's older sister, Lindsay, who not only chilled the Clippers on the mound, recording 10 punchouts and two walks, but went 2-for-3 with a roundtripper of her own leading off the fifth.
"It's definitely great to see the younger kids stepping up and taking over," remarked Ryan, "and of course, you have Lindsay, and she really had a great game."
While Mayer and the Lions had a great game, the defending champion Clippers didn't, and the lopsided setback was clearly a disappointing one for Cumberland coach Marty Crowley.
"I can't remember the last time we got 10-runned," he noted. "We got beat in all three phases of the game, and that's the bottom line. They outhit us, they played better defense than us, and (Cumberland pitcher) Juliet (Nelson) didn't have her best day. Lindsay pitched a very good game for them. She moved the ball around, she spotted the ball, and it took us a while to get going against her."
The Lions scored all the runs they needed in their opening swings, when with one out, consecutive singles by Toro, Lindsay Mayer, and Emily Bouthillette gave them a quick 2-0 lead.
In the third, bunt hits by Emma Hart (two hits, two runs scored) and Toro paved the way for a four-run rally that saw Hart score on a wild pitch and Lindsay Mayer knock in Toro with a sacrifice fly to center. After an outfield miscue allowed Bouthillette to reach base, Stacy Mayer belted her homer into the gap in left-center.
The Clippers caught a break in the fourth when Toro hit what would have been an opposite-field, two-out, two-run homer to left, but instead, resulted in a very long base hit when the runner in front of her failed to touch third while rounding the bag.
But in the fifth, the Lions added to their lead on the longest of their three home runs, Lindsay Mayer's rocket to the gap in left-center that reached the fence (reserved for the Cumberland men's softball league) on two bounces.
And in the sixth, Lincoln put the game away, when with one out, a base hit by Casie Beauchemin and Cumberland's third error of the game led up to Toro's home run, which was a carbon-copy line shot of the blast she delivered two innings earlier.
The Lions scored their final run on a walk to Bouthillette that was followed by Stacy Mayer's double to right-center.
The Clippers' best chance to score came in the fourth when a leadoff line single to left by Alexis Descoteaux, a walk to Nelson, and a fielder's choice grounder by Caylin Legare loaded the bases with one gone. But Mayer wiggled off the hook by striking out the next batter she faced and getting the third out on a tapper back to the mound.
While the Lions were obviously thrilled with their win, the Clippers had a tough time digesting the loss, but Crowley vowed that his team will turn the page on it and focus on their next game at Barrington on Saturday morning.
"This is in the rearview mirror and we just have to be ready for our next game," he noted. "That's all you can do this early in the season. It's our fourth game and we still have a lot of things we have to work on."

Ten Signs An Artist Is Gonna Leave His Label
Even in the tightest of camps, close friends can become distant cousins pretty quick. Rap game politics, the pressures of fame and often self-induced paranoia, can lead to hard feelings. One minute you're standing at a distance from a creative counterpart in photos and the next subliminal slugs go viral and spark controversy. From A Tribe Called Quest to Jim Jones and Cam'ron musicians – especially rappers – are known for strained working relationships and interpersonal beef. The latest is Consequence, who just shot a new video ( Consequence Calls Out Kanye in M.O.D. 3 Preview ) taking shots at former friend Kanye West. In our estimation, finding out you got beef with someone should be figured well before the video diss stage. So with that in mind, XXLmag.com presents top ten signs of a dysfunctional professional relationship. Feel free to add on to our list.
1- Sending burglars to your or anyone in your family's crib.
2 – Implying in interviews that friends and/or collaborators didn't help you as much as they could or should have helped.
3 – Calling out band mates on his solo album.
4 – Appearing on-stage with your rival.
5 – Marketing the group's album like it's his solo project.
6 – If your friend or labelmate is all of a sudden saying they're too busy to tour with you.
7 – If your so-called friend is testifying against you. For anything.
8 – Simultaneously collaborating with you on a record and then making subliminal diss tracks directed at you.
9 – If for any reason the Minister Louis Farrakhan has to be called in, consulted with or speaks your name.
10 – If a former friend or labelmate taped any phone calls you made and is posting them on the Internet.
-Matt Caputo

Now that Gossip Girl has finished its run, Chace Crawford's calendar is ready to be filled. The actor shares that he would look forward to playing Christian Grey in the Fifty Shades of Grey film, if he got the opportunity.
The actor, 27, shares with Fox News, "Hey, if they ask me to come and read, I would definitely do so. I don't even know what the character is like; I haven't read anything or heard anything about it!"
The film adaption of E.L. James' novel is highly anticipated, with fans worldwide dying to know who will play the role of the charming bad-boy Grey.
He continues, "I would love the challenge. I have not read the books, but what I know is that it is risqué, and to be honest, anything to shake up from the way I have been going would be good."
However, the role infamously includes a large part of 'S&M' sexual scenes. While some actors may shy away from the part, Perez Hilton reports that Crawford says, "I am only comfortable with S&M sex scenes! The other ones are just too simple and boring for me … I actually think, whether it is a sex scene, or screaming at something to get something across, I think it is kind of attacked the same way, and you're in the work mode, and you stay professional. It has never been awkward or intimidating to me."
There has been no official word on who will be portraying the lead roles for the film.

Species: Pseudomonas sp. MA-1
2-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine-5-carboxylate oxygenase has been purified from Pseudomonas sp. MA-1 and characterized [Sparrow69, Burg70]. The enzyme contains 2 moles of FAD per mole protein, and FMN cannot substitute [Sparrow69]. It is also highly specific for 3-hydroxy-2-methylpyridine-5-carboxylate, and molecular oxygen cannot be replaced by oxidized DCPIP. The enzyme is sensitive to oxidation, and loses activity reapidly in the absence of a reducing agent such as mercaptopethanol. Both NADH and NADPH can be used for reduction of the FAD-enzyme complex [Sparrow69].
Molecular Weight of Polypeptide: 166 kD (experimental) [Sparrow69 ]

To dream about friends suggests that certain hidden parts of your character are now ready and willing to reemerge. How you interact with people around you can be critical in understanding yourself.
To dream of your friends being happy and in good health suggests that your friends will wish you well or visit. In addition, your friends' relatives may bring you some good news.
To dream that your friends are troubled and upset indicates that they may suffer from illness or stress.
To dream about your childhood friend indicates that you will stumble back into behaviors from an early and more carefree time. You could be feeling too much pressure and wishing to go back to a time when things were easier.

A waif or orphan is a symbol of prosperity, but only when you dream that you are caring for one.
Conversely, to dream of many unkempt and uncared for waifs is a warning; your life will soon see great disappointment and unhappiness.

Hospitality is a trait that softens hard hearts, especially when it is done without expectation and for complete strangers. To dream about hospitality indicates your generous nature.
To dream of a lover represents recognition, self-worth, and acknowledgment of your true character. It may suggest a merging of both your feminine and masculine attributes. You are fulfilled and secure with the person that you are.
To dream of a former lover indicates that you have hang ups and loose ends relating to that specific relationship. Your present relationship may be indicating possible recurrence of those same issues.
To dream of a Quaker represents simplicity and peace in life. A Quaker is also representative of personal beliefs and spirituality.
Being or becoming a Quaker may suggest that you are in need of increased serenity in your life. You may need to consider becoming less reliant on others to fulfill your needs.

trans codes + slipping in reverse
I haul a large truck camper 24x7. It is around 4k pounds. The truck is a 2001 Lariat LE, DRW, 4x4, 7.3L with a build date of 02/01.
Within the past couple of months, I noticed that when I am on a hill and try to back up, sometimes the truck would roll forward, and I would have to hit the brakes and give it diesel to get it to go backwards up the incline.
Recently, it not only behaves as mentioned above, but it is now slipping(?) out of reverse regardless of the incline. Its like its getting pulses of fuel as it goes backwards and in order to get it to move at all, I have to press the pedal pretty far down. The truck has a hard time going backwards.
A week ago, I was driving on some hilly terrain and my O/D light started flashing. I stopped, turned off the engine and checked the fluid level. When I started it again the light was off. It did seem to choke a little going from first to second the fist time after I started it, but that is the only time I have ever noticed any tranny problems other than reverse.
I went to a shop and had the codes read. P0781: 1-2 shift error and a turbo pressure error. I expected the turbo because I have fuel/oil in my valley.
Now, my plan of action is to service the transmission and see if there are any metal bits and how dirty the fluid is. Is this a waste of time with this error? It hasn't been serviced in at least 20k miles. I would also say that about 1/3 of my driving is on dirt roads. Someone mentioned a possibility of dirt holding one of the valves open....
Next problem: The tranny was replaced by the previous owner. How can I tell which tranny I have? The dipstick saws to use mercon, but all of the write ups say to use mercon V in a 4r100. Which is what I imagine I have.
By service, I mean drain the pan, pull the pan, change the filter, clean the pan, put in a new gasket, and possibly flush the system using the method described in the FAQ. I say possibly because the whole idea of draining the tranny with the engine running freaks me out a little. I am unable to locate a new drain plug for the torque converter, so I am going to skip it.
So I serviced the tranny and the fluid wasn't pretty. I wont ever let it get like that again! I am going to change it again in a few 100 miles. Also, there wasn't a great deal of metal on the magnet which is good. Reverse is still acting weak. I am going to try the 2000 mile trek to the states. Wish me luck!
Oh, btw this is a remanufactured ('03) tranny that was rebuilt in '07.
I made it out of Alaska and have been driving for a couple of months without any catastrophic problems. I still have trouble with reverse slipping(?.. no power/movement) when trying to back up an incline.
I now have a chance to get a tranny out of a wrecked 01. I am going to go talk to the guy and check it out tomorrow.
Before I do, I was wondering what else I should do to diagnose the issues. So far, I have only changed the tranny filter and changed its juice. Are there any sensors, cables, harnesses, etc that I should look at?
Make sure the fluid level is about 1/4 to 1/2 -_______above the full mark.
Draining the tranny with the eng running?????? I think you misundertstood someones insructions.
You don't need a new drain plug for the tc if it has one in it. It's a 1/8 pipe plug, just tighten it up good when you reinstall it.
mercon...mercon V...or the new sp which is synthetic, all are ok. I wouldn't put the sp in it if you're haveing a problem, would b e a waste of money.
Thanks for your reply. My tranny fluid was full before and after I changed the filter.
Step 5 and 6 on this page says that you run the engine.
I used mercon V.
I wont be getting the tranny out of that wreck. It turns out the truck is older than they thought.
Any more clues on trouble shooting vehicle that has a week reverse? Thanks!
Ok, my mistake, i thought you meant running the eng with the pan off while drainning!!!
I really doubt it's going to be pretty... I never even checked the codes before I started my rebuild, didn't have to (or know that I could). When something like that is happening something is giving up the ghost inside your transmission. Mine was doing the same thing only in forward. Low and reverse use the same components, when I got into my transmission, and got down to where low and reverse are at (in the back) I could easily turn the transmission in the forward direction (direction it was slipping) but in reverse it was very stiff. I got into it further and had two ugly thrust bearings and some worn out clutches.
it is possible that your transmission has something caught in a valve ball, But after this much time it would be either embedded in the ball permanently or would have worked it's way out.
I've got a thread up I just started called
" noob transmission rebuild... for the poor man "
It's not that bad, and if yours is still running then when you get where you're going you might want to give it a try. Worst thing you can do is break it, and it sounds like it's already broken...
I am finally getting my transmission replaced. I should have it back today... I hope. Thanks for all of the insight. I would have loved to have tried the rebuild myself, but I don't have anywhere to do it. It's killing me knowing that my baby is in there with all of those men who are doing who knows what. Is your rebuild still going strong?

The Magazine
Saddam's Cash
From the May 5, 2003 issue: And the journalists and politicians he bought with it.
May 5, 2003, Vol. 8, No. 33 • By STEPHEN F. HAYES
Some of the transactions were straightforward cash payments, often in U.S. dollars, handed out from Iraqi embassies in Arab capitals--luxury cars delivered to top editors, Toyotas for less influential journalists. "This was not secret," says Salama Nimat, a Jordanian journalist who was jailed briefly in 1995 in that nation for highlighting the corruption. "Most of it was done out in the open."
Other transactions were surreptitious or deliberately complex--coveted Iraqi export licenses for family members of politicians, oil kickbacks through third parties, elaborate "scholarship" arrangements. In a region where leaders count their fortunes by the billion and workers by the penny, such payoffs are common. The Saudis, of course, have financed public works throughout the Middle East and Africa. But no one played the game like Saddam Hussein.
The Galloway affair was triggered when a reporter happened upon a slim, blue folder at one of the 23 Iraqi ministries--a snowflake in the avalanche of information loosed by the removal of Saddam Hussein from power. Some of the regime's records no longer exist. Iraqi officials destroyed some before the war began. Coalition bombs wiped out others. Looters made off with more. Still, Bush administration sources say they have recovered enough Iraqi government and Baath party documents to fill 100 semi-trailers. "We're overwhelmed with information," says one Pentagon official. "It's going to take a long time to go through it all."
That process is just now beginning--a fact that is surely rattling nerves around the world.
IRAQ IS WINNING the battles in the propaganda war with a modest media strategy, despite a multi-million dollar U.S. campaign featuring painstakingly choreographed briefings and Hollywood-style sets. Undeterred by America's elaborate media plan, Iraq is making its mark on the airwaves with its decidedly basic approach, media pundits say.
From a crude Baghdad set, Iraqi ministers each day knock down Western media reports and list their latest claims of conquest, sometimes wielding chrome-plated Kalashnikovs. Unlike America and its allies, theirs is a simple message delivered directly: "We will defeat the infidel invaders."
Despite poorly-lit surroundings and a sea of microphones often crowding the view, Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf has become something of a global television star . . .
Those words came from Reuters' European media reporter Merissa Marr on April 1, 2003, in a news report that despite the dateline apparently was not a parody. Marr either did not know or chose to ignore a crucial fact: Scores of journalists throughout the Arab world and Europe were on Saddam Hussein's payroll.
"For years, the Iraqi leader has been waging an intensive, sometimes clandestine, and by most accounts highly effective image war in the Arab world," wrote Wall Street Journal reporters Jane Mayer and Geraldine Brooks in an exposé published February 15, 1991. "His strategy has ranged from financing friendly publications and columnists as far away as Paris to doling out gifts as big as new Mercedes-Benzes."
That campaign continued until days before the regime was deposed. "If they're not bought and paid for, they're at least rented," says a top national security official, who adds that the administration has intelligence implicating big-name journalists throughout the Arab world and Europe.
"I could give you lots of names," says Tareq al-Mezrem. "Everyone knows them on the street. Everyone knows this information."
In a series of interviews conducted in Kuwait City and Washington in recent weeks, Arab journalists and media experts said the same thing. Several of those interviewed, with assurances of confidentiality, provided names, lots of them. If their reports are accurate, the Iraqi regime's "modest media strategy" so appealing to Reuters' Marr was actually an elaborate scheme to buy victory in the propaganda war with the United States.
"To lots of people, Saddam Hussein and his regime was a godsend," says a Washington-based columnist for a prominent Arabic-language newspaper. "Only a few journalists [in the Arab world] didn't take money from him."
Estimates of Saddam Hussein's personal fortune range from $2 billion to $40 billion. Over the past two weeks, coalition soldiers found nearly $800 million in U.S. cash stashed in a high-rent Baghdad neighborhood. With that kind of money at his disposal, it's no wonder Saddam Hussein could buy journalists in countries like Jordan, where the average per capita income is $1,630.
The boxes of money found in Baghdad last week were tied with ribbon stamped "Bank of Jordan," which doesn't surprise Salama Nimat, who spent much of his career exploring the shady financial ties between Saddam and the Jordanian elite.

BIG DEAL; A New Place to Keep Track Of Real Estate Mania
By WILLIAM NEUMAN
Published: June 27, 2004
FORGET $42.5 million apartments, interest-only mortgages and other forms of irrational exuberance. For students of recent history who fear the real estate bubble may be ready to pop, there is now ''CNNfn Open House,'' a daily half-hour show for the property obsessed that makes its debut tomorrow on the financial cable channel. As if to underscore the way Americans have replaced their fixation with the stock market with a real estate jones, ''Open House'' will bump ''Money and Markets'' off the schedule.
Day traders glued to the financial channels were a hallmark of the technology bubble. Now, market-timing Web surfers on Realtor.com can tune in to ''Open House'' twice a day, at noon and 3 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Déjà vu is only a cul-de-sac of the mind.
Not to worry. The show's host, Gerri D. Willis, played down ''bubble fear mongering'' in her 2003 book, ''The Smart Money Guide to Real Estate Investing.'' She did find one notable exception. ''The only cities vulnerable to a crash are the ones that enjoy the biggest runups in the first place,'' she wrote, ''and that largely means coastal cities. If you're living in the heartland, though, you should be able to sleep soundly.''
Ms. Willis laughed when asked whether her show's debut could be seen as a harbinger of the bust. ''We'll be looking at all aspects'' of the real estate boom, she said. ''Can housing prices continue to rise? Where will they rise? That's something people care about, the trend going forward on housing prices.''
Seeing Red Over Blue Bricks
After a two-year court battle, workers are moving ahead to strip the signature blue bricks off the facade of the co-op apartment house at 27 East 65th Street, at the corner of Madison Avenue.
A panel of the Appellate Division of New York State Supreme Court ruled this month in favor of the co-op board in its long-running dispute with Elliott E. Sutton, 62, a real estate investor who controls the building's ground-floor commercial space as an equal partner with the co-op board.
The ruling cleared the way for the co-op board to get a $6.8 million mortgage that will refinance an existing loan and provide some $3 million to replace the blue bricks with ordinary red ones, according to Gil Feder, a lawyer for the firm Reed Smith, which represents the board.
The wrangling began in early 2002, when city inspectors said the facade of the 17-story building, which was built in 1963, was in danger of crumbling and ordered a scaffold erected.
Because they are glazed, the blue bricks retain water, which freezes in the winter, causing cracks and leaks. The co-op had brought in engineers, who recommended removing all the bricks and replacing them.
Mr. Sutton worried that his ground-floor restaurant, Ferrier, and other tenants including a Citibank branch, would lose business the longer the project took and he argued for a quick job that would merely replace bad bricks in patchwork fashion. The two sides landed in court, and both the blue bricks and the scaffold stayed, and stayed and stayed.
The co-op applied for a mortgage to finance the brickwork, but Mr. Sutton, as joint owner of the property, refused to sign the loan papers. After a series of arbitration and court decisions, a judge finally ruled that the co-op could sign on behalf of its unwilling partner. That decision was upheld by the appellate panel.
Mr. Sutton, however, says he will ask the New York State Court of Appeals in Albany, the state's highest court, to take up the case.
Work initially began in March after the 55 or so co-op owners agreed to a maintenance increase. The money is to be reimbursed when the loan goes through.
Meanwhile, Mr. Sutton said he would soon close Ferrier because of poor business. Mr. Feder, the board's lawyer, said the work would have been done by now, and the scaffolding gone, if Mr. Sutton had not put up a fight.
in a court hearing last January, Justice Jane S. Solomon of the State Supreme Court in Manhattan wondered aloud about the long-running feud. ''Does your client have an emotional connection to blue brick?'' she asked one of Mr. Sutton's lawyers.
The judge's question was repeated to Mr. Sutton last week. ''I don't care if it's blue, black, green or orange,'' he said. ''I only own the ground floor. I don't look up.''
A Big Sale, And Back Rent
David Marvisi, a Manhattan nightclub owner, has been busy. Two weeks ago he sold, for $10 million, the East 65th Street town house once owned by Irene Silverman, the woman who was murdered by Sante and Kenneth Kimes.
A month earlier, he sold a four-story building at 668 Avenue of the Americas, near 21st Street, for $2.38 million, which he said he originally acquired in exchange for his stake in the Limelight nightclub.
Now, Joel Bernstein, a Manhattan lawyer, wants to get in on the action.
Mr. Bernstein took Mr. Marvisi to court in April 2001 for walking out on four months of rent for a loft apartment in Lower Manhattan at 77 Warren Street. The building is owned and managed by companies tied to the Gindi family, which is best known for running the Century 21 department store. A civil court judge ruled in favor of the landlord last July. But Mr. Bernstein said his client has yet to be paid the $75,368 in rent, fees, interest and legal costs awarded by the court.
Mr. Marvisi said he was unaware that a judgment had been entered. In a deposition, Mr. Marvisi had said the building was still being renovated when he moved in more than four years ago, paying $6,500 a month.
''The place was not in a condition to live,'' he said. ''I had a name for it, Living Hell.''
He said he got stuck in the elevator at least three times, on one occasion for more than two hours. ''We were lucky we didn't die,'' he said in the deposition. Mr. Marvisi also said there were problems with heat and air-conditioning and that water from an overflowing washing machine stained his all-white furniture. The landlord testified that he had quickly fixed all of the problems.
Mr. Marvisi, who drives an orange Bentley and owns the Exit nightclub, testified he lived in the Warren Street loft for 14 months while renovating a duplex condo he owns in the Regatta Building in Battery Park City. He said he is selling his New York property because he is moving to Miami.

WASHINGTON, July 22 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "It was forty-four years ago this month that the first recipients enrolled in Medicare. Now is the time to get the rest of the job done to ensure quality health care for all," said Dr. Jane L. Delgado, President and CEO of the National Alliance for Hispanic Health, the nation's leading Hispanic health advocacy group.
"President Obama set out in his speech tonight a call to action for all Americans to raise their voices and help ensure that meaningful health reform is no longer a dream deferred. America's families facing strained household budgets cannot wait another year for the peace of mind brought by access to quality health care."
According to Dr. Delgado, one in three Hispanics (33.5%) are uninsured and the economic crisis is increasing the number of families that must go without insurance. "If we can afford the $1.4 trillion we have already spent this year alone in bank and investment firm bailouts, we can afford $1.2 trillion for health reform spread out over the next decade. Health reform is a good investment in America that supports better health for our families and spurs new growth in good jobs that will see increased demand as our nation ages."
"There was a clear sense of urgency in the President's speech tonight to act on the common ground we have to achieve health reform. Both the Senate and the House have come together on key principles that no person should be denied access because of pre-existing conditions, women should not face higher premiums than men, and those who cannot afford health insurance and small businesses deserve a hand in making coverage possible. These are principles we can all agree on."
"Now it is time to get the rest of the job done on access and quality. The entire Alliance network is committed to working with Congress and the President to

PM08 Sediment Quality Assessment
(PM121) Profiles of pollutants impacting Bayou Texar, Pensacola, FL.
Mohrherr, C1, Liebens, J1, Lepo, J1, Rao, K1, 1 University of West Florida, Pensacola, FL, USA
ABSTRACT- Bayou Texar is an urban bayou that connects to Pensacola Bay. It receives discharge from a creek, stormwater outfalls, nonpoint sources along its shores, and an aquifer. Past studies have shown the presence of fluoride, metals, PAHs, and pesticides in bayou sediments. Groundwater plumes originating from two superfund sites to the west are apparently transporting pollutants towards the bayou. We entered data from county, state, and federal studies on pollution of the bayou water, bayou sediments, and groundwater into a GIS database. This database allowed us to identify spatial and topical data gaps. We then sampled bayou sediments by ponar grabs and vibracores at strategic locations where information was lacking. The sediments were analyzed for fluoride, radium, PAHs, and metals. Bottom water was sampled with a Van Dorn sampler and analyzed for salinity and fluoride. Porewater samples for fluoride analysis were obtained from sampled sediment by centrifugation. State of Florida Sediment Quality Assessment Guideline Threshold effects levels (TEL) were exceeded for PAHs in the creek and bayou. Probable effects levels (PEL) were exceeded in the bayou for lead, mercury, copper and zinc, while arsenic and chromium reached concentrations between their TEL and PEL. The metal and PAH contamination was most concentrated in surficial sediments and was likely transported into the bayou by surface waters and sediments. The metal and PAH levels were highest in the northern part of the bayou because of increased input due to the large number of stormwater outfalls in that area or because of a diminished flushing effect of tides in this upper part of the bayou. Fluoride levels were also elevated in the northern part of the bayou. In sediment cores, fluoride levels were highest at the sediment/water interface where particle size is finest. In porewater, however, fluoride levels increased with depth. This indicates a groundwater origin for the porewater fluoride. Fluoride in bayou water was not related to salinity but reached a peak in the area where porewater fluoride was highest. This suggests that fluoride-rich porewater may be mixing with bayou water. Radium in sediments varied spatially but in general it was low. In the northern part of the bayou, the radium increased locally with depth. This depth trend suggests that a source of radium exists under the bayou and that it locally moves towards the surface. (Supported by EPA Cooperative Agreement X-97455002)

I'm currently reading this book entitled "When I Whistle" by Shusaku Endo. It was originally written in Japanese but translated to English by Van C. Gessel. I'm already halfway thru the book and I really recommend it to my IS (International Studies Major) friends who love history and fiction. It has a Haruki Murakami vibe in it where in it's two-dimensional, past and the present. Though the author used a lot of negative terms such as dingy friend, squashed frogs, beyond all hope, the odds are way against as, chagrin and many others. I am still highly motivated to finish the book slowly.
So many great news lately! I wonder if it will come true few months from now. Let's wait and see.

Tyson Gay, who ran the fastest time ever recorded under all conditions in the men's 100 meters in the Olympic Trials last summer, 9.68 seconds, ran the seventh-fastest wind-aided time, 9.75 seconds, in the first round of the men's 100 Thursday. The wind was 3.4 meters per second. Gay has said he will only run one round of the 100, but after Thursday's race left open the possibility he'll run again today; he has automatic berths in the World Championships in the 100 and 200.
Other heat winners, all in wind-aided times, were Travis Padgett, 9.93 seconds; Darvis Patton, 9.92 seconds; Shawn Crawford, 10.06 seconds, and Michael Rodgers, 9.92 seconds. There were no major form-chart casualties as Monzavous Edwards, Trindon Holliday, Mark Jelks, Walter Dix, Rodney Martin and Ivory Williams were among those advancing to today's semis.

Apidexin has been our editors unanimous favorite for almost a decade. You can read more about Apidexin by going to the official site.
AloeCran or AloeCrap?
Pretty much everyone has heard of putting aloe vera lotion on your skin after a day in the sun, and most have tasted the bitter-sweet tang of cranberry, but most have definitely not heard of drinking a combination of the two. Can AloeCran really get you a healthier digestive system?
The Science of AloeCran
This is a fairly new product and one that isn't particularly well-marketed. Even so, the science makes sense. In each serving the mix contains:
- Aloe vera leaf gel – 200 mg
- Cranberry powder – 250 mg
- Fibersol – 5 g
- Malic acid/red algae – 200 mg
- Stevia leaf – 70 mg (natural sweetener)
- Luo Han Guo – 12 mg (natural sweetener)
The main purpose of aloe vera is to act as an antacid, though this isn't particularly unique. Cranberry juice and the red algae complex is known to contain a good amount of antioxidants. The other main benefit here is a good source of fiber, which is the main thing which may contribute to a more healthy digestive system. The natural sweeteners are good to see in place of sugar.
AloeCran Pros
- Contains fiber and antioxidants
- Natural sweeteners
AloeCran Cons
- Fairly expensive for a basic drink mix ($25 per 30 serving container)
- Nothing particularly special about the formula
Is AloeCran for You?
This is a pretty good product in the sense that it is a healthy source of fiber and antioxidants, but it doesn't really stand out in terms of ingredients. Yes, aloe/cranberry is a unique combination, but aloe isn't any better a way of balancing pH levels than traditional antacid additives. This is a decent product, but a little too low on value. I don't recommend it.

ARLINGTON, Texas — As he released the last pass of his college career, a 230-pound Texas A&M defender slammed Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones to the field.
Oklahoma football: Landry Jones' 50th game as a Sooner ends the same as the 1st
Crumpled near the 17-yard line, Jones faced the end zone and, for a few seconds, laid there. Then like every game in his 50-start career, he got up and walked off the field.
Oklahoma's winningest quarterback ended his career the way he started it — with a loss at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The first loss was 14-13 to BYU back in 2009 when Jones walked on the field as a backup because the starting quarterback had to walk-off it too soon.
The last loss was a 41-13 defeat at the hands of Johnny Manziel and the Aggies on Friday at the 77th Cotton Bowl game.
Jones completed 35 of 48 pass attempts for 278 yards. He also threw one interception and one touchdown.
"I'm not identified by my wins or losses," Jones said with a straight face as reporters hounded him with questions about his last game. "I'm defined by Christ."
In his final game, Jones threw to only four receivers and handed off on the last four plays of the game.
"He's just been an incredibly positive influence on the football team in every way," Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said. "Great worker. Close with everybody. We'll miss him and he's been a great, great player.
"He threw a lot of great balls out there tonight. We've got some young guys we just got to move forward with, but Landry did all he could in the way he worked for this program."
In a separate room from where Texas A&M, donned in their bowl championship hats, sat at tables with microphones, Jones sat in a chair with recorders, microphones and camera lenses tightly surrounding him as he calmly talked about a freshman phenom who had destroyed his last chance of glory. On his right shoulder, in smudged permanent marker, was the phrase Psalm 34:20.

Above everything else; I think one treat a week helps to motivate one's program for weight loss. But if you're not losing your weight consistently; then perhaps you maybe treating yourself a little too often...eek! I'm looking in my mirror....
Depriving oneself of fatty (yummy) desserts 7 days a week can seem like hell. It's okay to have a fattening treat or two once a week and still be on track! (Last night I had a blueberry muffin, a chocolate chip cookie and hot cocoa!) Now I'm back in 'diet' mode! 35495
treat yourself once a week to something you love to eat!
For every week that you stay on track, treat yourself to something (non-food related). You deserve it!30

Sidhant Gupta gets Bollywood break
Fashion model Sidhant Gupta is all set to make his entry in the entertainment industry as he gets his Bollywood break with Bang Bang Bangkok.
The three lead roles are played by Sahil Anand (of Student of the Year [SOTY] fame),Sidhant Gupta and Namit Khanna.
The film is being directed by Vikram Pradhan and is produced by Haresh Bhojwani under the banner of Dazzlewave Production.
When the aspiring actor was asked about his entry in Bollywood, he said: "Acting was my dream, modeling was just a step towards making my dream come true. And with such a good break in a movie like Bang Bang Bangkok, I am keeping my fingers crossed to make a mark in bollywood."
"My character in Bang Bang Bangkok is very funny and spontaneous which is challenging to me as it's totally opposite of what I am in real life," he said.
Talking about his experience on the sets, Sidhant said: "The movie is of comic genre and no wonder when we stepped into the mad world of Bang Bang Bangkok, we realized that unlike emotion based family drama, comedy is totally distinct and challenging to perform."
"We had to be on our toes for each and every scene."
"But thankfully with the presence of comedy king, Suresh Menon, who is a master in his unusal comic sense and facial expressions, we could deliver our best.
"He was our mentor for the comic scenes and helped us to be at our best in delivering every act and I am sure that Bang Bang Bangkok will make audience laugh out louder," he added.

DGP 2013, Fort Lauderdale day 2: Troy Dumais (USA) takes third ahead of 3m final
FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida - Murphy Bromberg (Bexley, Ohio) won her women's platform semifinal to earn a spot in Sunday's 10m finals and Olympic bronze medallist Troy Dumais (Ventura, Calif./Austin, Texas) secured a berth in the 3m finals with their performances Friday at the FINA Diving Grand Prix at the Fort Lauderdale Aquatic Complex.
The 17-year-old Bromberg scored 341.30 points to win the women's 10m semifinal B ahead of China's Jie Lian (330.50) and Japan's Fuka Tatsumi (300.45), who also advanced.
Bromberg, a 2010 junior world bronze medallist, was competing in just her second senior international meet.
"I was just trying to dive. I've always struggled with being really nervous and not performing in meets like I do in practice, so I was just trying to calm down," said Bromberg, who scored 84.15 points on her back 3.5 tuck in the second round of the semis.
China's Huang Xiaohui, Ukraine's Julia Prokopchuk and Germany's Maria Kurjo qualified for the finals out of semifinal A.
Dumais scored 468.90 points for second place in the men's 3m semifinal B to advance to the finals along with China's He Chao (508.70) and Germany's Sascha Klein (447.30).
"I was steady today, but I left some points on the board. I still haven't mastered everything," said Dumais.
"Today was one more step. As I get older, it gets harder, but I'm still pushing myself to be better and pushing our younger divers to be better."
Mexico's Rommel Pacheco and Jahir Ocampo were first and second in semifinal A, and China's Sun Zhiyi also advanced to the finals.

If you like your strategy games fiddly, granular and detailed, then good news. The most fiddly, granular, and detailed strategy game to ever come along is finally getting a fourth entry.
Europa Universalis prides itself on making games like Civilization V look like Farmville. Developer Paradox Interactive specializes in grand strategy games: Enormously detailed and meticulously researched games that let you push dials, breed royals like they're Pokemon, and generally play with every single little detail to form an intricate strategy. This broke through with this year's Crusader Kings II and Paradox is seeing what it can bring from that game to their most storied franchise.
That doesn't mean dumbing things down however. For example, the game features 4000 historical rulers and a Monarch Power system to reflect what they think of each other. You'll also be dealing with real historical events and problems that faced the nation you're choosing as your diplomatic proxy.
You'll be able to start invading countries and generally trolling medieval Europe in late 2013.

Burden of Irish debt could yet eclipse that of Greece

It is no longer a question of whether Ireland will go bust, but when. Unlike Greece, our woes do not stem from government debt, but instead from the government's open-ended guarantee to cover the losses of the banking system out of its citizens' wallets.
Even under the most optimistic assumptions about government spending cuts and bank losses, by 2012 Ireland will have a worse ratio of debt to national income than the one that is sinking Greece.
On the face of it, Ireland's debt position does not appear catastrophic. At the start of the year, Ireland's government debt was two- thirds of GDP: only half the Greek level. (The State also has financial assets equal to a quarter of GDP, but so do most governments, so we will focus on the total debt.)
Because of the economic collapse here, the Government is adding to this debt quite quickly. However, in contrast to its inept handling of the banking crisis, the Government has taken reasonable steps to bring the deficit under control. If all goes to plan we should be looking at a debt of 85 to 90 per cent of GDP by the end of 2012.
