Real, Dortmund through to quarters
Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund became the first teams through to the Champions League quarterfinals with contrasting wins over Manchester United and Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday.
Real came from behind to win 2-1 at Old Trafford and advance 3-2 on aggregate after a controversial red card for winger Nani rocked United early in the second half, while Dortmund swept to a 3-0 home win to go through 5-2.
Real, held 1-1 in the first leg at the Bernabeu, trailed to a Sergio Ramos own goal just after the break but scored twice in three minutes soon after Nani was shown a shock straight red after his high foot caught Alvaro Arbeloa in the 56th minute.
Real's Luka Modric came off the bench to curl in a lovely shot in the 66th minute and former United favourite Cristiano Ronaldo slid in the second to silence the crowd and keep Madrid on course for a 10th European Cup.
Dortmund, who topped their qualifying group above Real, were well-placed at 2-2 after the opener in Ukraine and took complete control with first-half goals by Felipe Santana and Mario Goetze before Jakub Blaszczykowski completed the job after an hour.
There are two more last 16 matches on Wednesday with Juventus taking a 3-0 lead into their home game against Celtic while Paris St Germain take on Valencia in France 2-1 up.
The remaining four games are being played next week and the draw for the quarterfinals will take place on March 15.
The red card came as a total surprise and was the start of a terrible 13-minute spell that doomed the home side to defeat as Real, trailing 1-0, struck twice in three minutes through Luka Modric and Ronaldo to seal Real's place in the last eight.
Substitute Modric, only been on the field for seven minutes, lashed in Real's equaliser from 20 metres after 66 minutes and Ronaldo slid in at the far post three minutes later to turn in a cross from Gonzalo Higuain and seal Real's place in the last eight.
"Independent of the decision, the best team lost," Real coach Jose Mourinho told ITV. "We didn't play well, we didn't deserve to win, but football is like this.
"I am not sure about the decision, but independent of that, the best team lost."
Mourinho told Spanish television TVE he was disappointed by the performance.
"I am happy that we are through but I expected more from my team," he said.
"When your goalkeeper is the best player on the pitch and you are playing against 10 men then that shows you are not controlling the match as you should.
"But you have to know how to suffer and how to win under those circumstances."
Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson was too upset to speak to the press.
"I don't think the manager is any fit state to talk to the referee. It speaks volumes I am sitting here now not the manager," assistant manager Mile Phelan said.
"It's a very distraught dressing room and a very distraught manager. That's why I am sitting here now."
Nani certainly had his foot high as he challenged for the ball with Arbeloa, but did not see the Spaniard behind him and had his eye on the ball throughout the incident.
Ferguson raced down from his seat to remonstrate on the touchline with the officials and went storming down to the pitch after the match ended.
United players surrounded the referee at the end with Rio Ferdinand sarcastically clapping in his face, and although the decision badly affected United, at that stage, they were still leading with 34 minutes to play.
Mourinho, though, quickly changed the shape of his side in the wake of the dismissal, introducing Modric who had a huge influence, while Ferguson, did not bring on Wayne Rooney until 17 minutes from the end when United were 2-1 down.
Mourinho could become the first man to lift the trophy with three different clubs after his earlier successes with Porto in 2004 and Inter Milan in 2010.
"I did my job which was to help Real Madrid win and stay alive in the Champions League," Ronaldo said.
"I am very happy for my team but it was a very strange feeling tonight and in the first leg.
"I spent six years here and probably it will be the same if I ever go back to Real Madrid and play against them.
"The feelings you have for people who treat you well are a unique thing and it was a special day for me to return to my second home and spend time with my friends.
"But the most important thing was that Real Madrid won and inside I am very happy but also sad for United."

Home Construction Management – Custom or Cookie Cutter?
Discover The Right Builder – Home Construction Project
Buying your own land, and building your own home is an exciting endeavor and is something most Americans yearn for. It can be expensive, but is obviously rewarding as so many people go to great lengths to make it happen. The building process is lengthy and can test relationships but if you are sure of yourself, then you will need a highly qualified builder and construction specialist for your project. Finding the right highly qualified and experienced General Contractor is important.
Custom built houses demand someone with quite abit of solid building experience, and sharing your dream with the right individual will make bringing your vision into reality much more likely. They will basically hold your hand as you explore every avenue of the building process. Architecture, landscaping, materials – windows, doors, paint, fixtures, appliances all have to be planned for. Making all these choices can be overwhelming but having the right professional guiding the way will make it a much smoother process.
Locating the best local professional builder
One of the top factors when looking for your custom contractor is to spend some time online looking at reviews for at least ten local builders. Previous clients generally like to leave feedback whether its good or maybe not so good. Either way, you can get a pretty quick snapshot of a builders previous client satisfaction level with a small amount of homework. Look for those with four star ratings and make a list of the ones operating in your chosen area. Other disgruntled clients reviews can save you a lot of grief. Yelp is obviously a good place to start in order to locate genuine feedback. Seeking referrals from locals, friends and family members should also be considered as theoretically these contacts have your best interest in mind.
After creating your list, it is time to seek out as much information on each company regarding their years of experience, schooling, professional qualifications, walk throughs available on previous or current houses being built, what they charge etc..
Building Association Member Referal
The best builders, and contractors, are generally members of local building associations and that is a great place to consolidate your list. Just ask someone for feedback on your list and you will discover all sorts of interesting stories and tidbits not otherwise available. This info can save you tens of thousands and plenty of lost time as well.
Financial Stability can be an important factor
A financially stressed builder will usually be more inclined to shoddy work and poor decisions even if they lean toward honest work. You don't want a contractor who is under the gun so to speak and asking some probing questions can save you a lot of grief. You have to count on your building pro otherwise everything can turn ugly in a hurry. You don't want his problems on your shoulders and that is exactly what will happen if you aren't careful
Checking up on Details
Researching the builder credentials is always important. What are their qualifications, how long have they been established and what are the owner's levels of experience? Checking with the BBB rating is always a good idea as that is the first place many disgruntled clients will report unpleasant experiences.
Overall, touring previously built sites and using your intuition about the builders manerisms wll go a long way. Pay attention to your initial impressions as they are usually right! Take a little care in making this important decision and it will take you a long way. Click Here for OKC builders.

(Nov 02, 2007) On September 10, 2007, China's Ministries of Health and Finance and the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine jointly issued new guidelines on the management of the rural cooperatives' medical program, which was inaugurated in 2002. Under the existing scheme, the central and local governments contribute 40 yuan to an insurance fund for each farmer who voluntarily pays 10 yuan annually (about US$1.30) into the fund. Members of the plan can apply to have up to 20 percent of inpatient fees refunded should they require medical care, but outpatient care is apparently not covered "in the majority of areas." (Shan Juan, Govt Adds Clarity to Health Scheme, CHINA DAILY, Sept. 26, 2007, available at http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2007-09/26/content_6134404.htm.)
Under the new guidelines, provincial governments would be given more information on how funds should be allocated in order to facilitate their implementation of the program, and they are called upon to gradually expand their coverage to include outpatient care as well. The guidelines stipulate that the fund is to be used only to subsidize farmers' medical bills and not for financing other public health programs; that the percentage of reimbursed fees should be balanced across rural areas nationwide; that the percentage of the fee that the farmer is entitled to reclaim is always made clear; and that reimbursements be made on the spot. In addition, the guidelines call for the cost of giving birth at a hospital to be covered and for a free check-up to be awarded to plan members who make no claims upon the fund during a 12-month period. The government reportedly allocated 9.4 billion yuan (about US$1.25 billion) to the fund in June 2007. (Id.; Guanyu wanshan xin xing nongcun hezuo yiliao tongchou buchang fang'an de zhidao yijian, Ministry of Health Web site, Sept. 25, 2007.)
In addition, it was reported on September 20, 2007, that the China Development Bank (CDB), starting from 2008, will have each of its branches set aside five percent of its annual loans for rural health projects, with a focus on establishing clinics in impoverished areas and providing low-cost medical equipment and basic pharmaceuticals to health agencies in such regions. The loans issued will amount to more than five billion yuan (about US$665 million) and affect most of China's 1,500 counties, the CDB's governor Chen Yuan was quoted as stating. (CDB to Extend Billions [sic] Loans for Rural Health, XINHUA, Sept. 20, 2007, available at http://www.china.org.cn/english/government/225098.htm.)

Tire rotation
Tire rotation is the practice of moving the wheels and tires of an automobile from one position to another, to ensure even tire wear.[citation needed] Even tire wear is desirable to extend the useful life of a set of tires.
The weight on the front and rear axles differs which causes uneven wear.[citation needed] With the majority of cars having the engine in front, the front tires typically bear more weight than the rear tires. Front-wheel drive vehicles have not only the engine but also the transaxle in front, adding to the weight differential. Moreover, additional stress is placed disproportionately on the front tires by braking and steering.[citation needed] Thus, tire rotation needs to occur more frequently for front-wheel drive vehicles.[citation needed]
Turning the vehicle will cause uneven tire wear. The outside, front tire is worn disproportionately. In countries with right-hand traffic, for example, right turns are tighter than left turns and most cloverleaf interchanges and parking ramps are right-hand curves, so the left front tire wears faster than the right front, because the left tire travels a greater distance around those turns (the same way that an athlete in the leftmost lane would have to run further around an oval track than one in the rightmost if the race were being run clockwise from a flat line start) and a majority of turns will be to the right. Conversely, the sidewalls on the right tire tends to be bumped and rubbed against the curb while parking the vehicle, causing asymmetric sidewall wear. The symmetric opposite occurs in countries that drive on the left.
In addition, mechanical problems in the vehicle may cause uneven tire wear. Wheels misaligned with each other and/or with the vehicle's axis will tend to be dragged along by the other wheels, causing uneven wear in that tire. If the alignment is such that the vehicle tends to turn, the driver will correct by steering against the tendency. In effect the vehicle is constantly turning, causing uneven tire wear.
Car manufacturers will recommend tire rotation frequency and pattern. Depending on the specifics of the vehicle, tire rotation may be recommended every 8,000 km (5,000 mi).[citation needed] The rotation pattern is typically moving the back wheels to the front, and the front to the back, but crossing them when moving to the back.[citation needed] If the tires are unidirectional, the rotation can only be rotated front to back on the same side of the vehicle to preserve the rotational direction of the tires. Most unidirectional tires can be moved from side to side if they are remounted; tires with asymmetric rims are a rare exception.[citation needed] More complex rotation patterns are required if the vehicle has a full-size spare tire that is part of the rotation, or if there are snow tires.
Paradoxically for maximum traction, the best tires should be kept on the rear wheels of the vehicle, whether it is front- or rear-wheel drive.[1] The reason for this is that if the rear wheels lose grip before the front ones, an oversteer condition will occur, which is harder to control than the corresponding understeer which will happen if a front wheel is lost. This is also the case if a tire blows out, so the intuitive belief that the front steering/driving tires need to be the best quality is not the case.[citation needed] A rear tire blowout will cause the vehicle to become very difficult to control, especially at highway speeds. It also greatly increases the risk of rollover due to yawing, a condition where the rear of the vehicle swings out and becomes perpendicular to the direction of travel. Yawing will cause the tire to separate from the rim, the rim can then dig into the pavement, or dirt and grass if the vehicle is no longer on the road, which will trip the vehicle and cause a rollover.[citation needed]
In some cases (for example, BMW)[citation needed], automobile manufacturers may recommend performing no tire rotation at all.[citation needed] Additionally, some vehicles are designed (or retrofitted) with front and rear wheels of different sizes and unidirectional rotation treads, making rotation impossible[citation needed].

Wow. Yummy! I changed the recipe. I substituted agave sweetener instead of the corn syrup. I added 2 cups powdered sugar. I reduced the chocolate to 11 ounces. After I melted the chocolate, I added my powdered sugar and whipped it with a blender until nice and smooth. Then refrigerated it. It makes a ton of frosting! My frosting never separated. And after a week in the fridge, it was still perfect and we used it on graham crackers. Everybody just wanted to eat spoonfuls!flag if inappropriate
Just a suggestion if this ganache separates and you get a layer of fat on top, you can melt it down and mix (preferably with an immersion blender) until it comes back together. Then let it sit! Over agitating it will make it separate. If it still won't come back together, add some simple syrup or liquor.flag if inappropriate
Best Frosting Ever! Add a shot of Baileys, Amaretto or Rum for a hint extra flavor. I use it with Hersheys Black Magic Cake and it is Amazing! Easy & Beautiful - Rich and Creamy not overly sweet.flag if inappropriate
Best chocolate frosting ever! You have to plan ahead though. You have to let it cool unless you want to use it as a glaze or once cooled in the fridge you have to let it come to room temp to get it to a spreadable consistancy. Make it! You won't be sorry. We used 16oz of Hersheys chocolate. It is what my daughter wanted for her birthday.flag if inappropriate
Delicious. I used all semi sweet chocolate and it was perfect. Like others say, it takes way longer to set up but once it does it spreads very easily on the cake. I can't believe anyone would add powdered sugar to this recipe.flag if inappropriate
This was delicious - it makes a ton, and I had guests sneaking tastes out of the leftovers because they enjoyed it so much. It was on the dark side, but I love that taste. I decided to refrigerate the frosting for much longer than 45 minutes because of other comments, and while it did set, the frosting separated, leaving a layer of I think butter on top. Did anyone else have that issue? I just skimmed some off and beat the rest but it wasn't too appealing to begin with!flag if inappropriate
The perfect chocolate icing. Not too sweet...just right! Beware, this makes a TON of icing. You could cover two cakes easily.flag if inappropriate
This was very good. I did amend the type of chocolate used, as other reviewers suggested. I used half semi and half milk, and it was just on the edge of being too dark. (I loooove bittersweet chocolate, so it wasn't too dark for me, but it was for the rest of the family.) I used Guittard chocolate chips. As for waiting for it to set up, be sure you stir it every so often when it is in the fridge! That makes a huge difference. After 45 minutes, it wasn't set at all, then I stirred it. Voila! within 15 min it was ready to go. It looks lovely and shiny on the cake. It did make for a very pretty presentation. This will most likely be my go-to chocolate icing from now on. It is good that I can adjust the type of chocolate used based on the people I'm making it for and the type of cake.flag if inappropriate
The consistency of this frosting is luscious, and it is very easy. I agree that for some cakes, it might not be sweet enough. But it is very easy to substitute some milk chocolate for darker chocolate, uses semisweet rather than bittersweet, and add a little sugar with the corn syrup, and tweak with powdered sugar when you mix in the chocolate after heating. Overall, it is outstanding... not grainy like confectioner's sugar-based frostings often are. Creamy and delicious.flag if inappropriate
HUGE PETPEEVE...please dont review recipes unless you have actually tried the original recipe. The recipe, as is, is fantastic. No modifications required. It has a great flavour and consistency.flag if inappropriate

When the W's caught up with 3 minutes left Memphis scored 6 straight. A turnover on Lee, a Festus miss and Jack got his shot blocked. The W's couldn't clear a defensive board to save their bacon.
To the W's credit they battled all night and made a game of it. Last year they would have lost by 20. No shame in losing to Memphis they are just a very difficult matchup for the W's.

I see some improvements I think might be worthy of playing with. The first and most obvious is to make the shell out of lighter material....silk or cuben ala Bill Fornshell. The second is to make the shell 'baffled' like a quilt, with the baffles fitting tightly around the balloons. This would reduce the gaps where drafts sneak in, and may improve the R-Value. The thrid possibility is to tie the balloons so they CAN be re-used. There is a technique involving twisting of the valve instead of tieing a knot that would work, but the balloons would ideally be more robust for this approach!Definitely a fun DIY project ;)
I played with the Balloon Bed idea for several years. I found these things called "CheerStics" and started this thread: CheerStic Air Pad Then I went back to the ballon idea and dyed the white Silk Kilt black. The picture shows it being used at Wood's Hole Shelter on the AT in Georgia, October 2006, as the shell for my balloon bed. The balloon bed is torso length.The Silk Kilt used alone weighs 1.9 ounces.If you are careful you can tie a slip knot on the balloon and use it more than once. This is sort of hard so it you try this carry a few extra balloons. I am only about 50% successful with a slip knot.The balloons alone have about "0" insulation value. I use a self-inflating balloon that weigh about 3 grams each.

Hi Bill> I use a self-inflating balloon that weigh about 3 grams each.I am sure we would all love to know how you make a self-inflating balloon! Or do I misunderstand?Cheers
Perhaps he means he inflates himself (by mouth), rather than using a pump! I imagine this would be quicker than using a pump too. Otherwise I am intrigued....!
Clever stuff but it does not look that cumfortable to me!!! Plus who wants to be blowing up balloons after a long day of backpacking. Balloons don't self inflate-right?
> I imagine this would be quicker than using a pump too.Depends on the person. I just don't have enough lung power to blow those balloons up... so it's use the little pump or nothing.I wrote a brief balloonbed review around three years ago which come to many of the same conclusions that Carol did.With the advent of the BA clearview and the soon to arrive thermarest, I would skip the balloonbed.
Hi all,I have a special lot of balloons left over from a camp out with Harry Potter. Ha-HaSelf-inflating - I should have said self-inflated. Anyway it means that I inflate them and don't use a balloon pump.This is a learned skill.All I will say about the balloon bed idea is that if you can blow up your own balloons and are only out for a few days at the lightest weight you can come up with - then the balloon bed might be worth the trouble.My feelings about the balloon bed lead me to develop the Poly Tube Down Air Mattress.
Edited by bfornshell on 09/28/2008 18:26:10 MDT.
A balloon bed is very light for one night but fragile and not good for longer trips, because the balloons are not really reuseable . I wonder about a similar modular idea using the BPL 2 compartment pillows in a thin cloth or cloth/foam boxwall holder. A spare pillow would give security. That could be warm, comfortable and lighter than thermorests etc.

Personal Liberty Poll
In 2009 the Oklahoma legislature approved a measure that allowed for a privately-funded Ten Commandments monument to be placed on the State's Capitol grounds. The monument, which went up last year, has been widely criticized by legal experts who question whether placing the Judeo-Christian monument so close to the legislative compound violates the Constitutional protections against government establishment of religion. But supporters of the monument are likely less worried about legal challenges by civil liberties groups than they are about the other organizations who now also claim the right to erect religious monuments on the public grounds.
The existing Ten Commandments monument was donated to the Capitol Preservation Commission in 2009 by Oklahoma Republican Representative Mike Ritze, who championed the monument and secured $10,000 in donations for its construction.
When the religious monument went up, with the stipulation that its construction was privately funded, other groups took note. The New York City based Satanic Temple has now announced that it is raising donations for a monument of its own to be displayed in the same area as the Oklahoma Ten Commandments statue.
"As an 'homage' to Satan, the purpose of the monument is to complement and contrast the Ten Commandments monument that already resides on the North side of the building," the organization says on a website raising funds for the proposed new monument.
The proposal presents a tough question for supporters of the existing religious monument. The American Civil Liberties Union has already sued for the removal of the Ten Commandments statue, noting that, "the monument stands alone, with no other monuments or memorials in the immediate vicinity." ACLU says this is indicative of an unConstitutional and "self-evidently exclusive" religious message "that supports and endorses the faiths and creeds of some churches and sects."
The Satanists say that their monument would get the ACLU to leave the Ten Commandment supporters alone.
"By accepting our offer, the good people of Oklahoma City will have the opportunity to show that they espouse the basic freedoms spelled out in the Constitution. We imagine that the ACLU will also embrace such a response," they write. "Allowing us to donate a monument would show that the Oklahoma City Council does not discriminate, and both the religious and non-religious should be happy with such an outcome. Our mission is to bring people together by finding common sentiments that create solutions that everyone can appreciate and enjoy."
The Satanists continue, "We are keenly attuned to the need for a public-friendly design and plan is to make our monument an object of play for young children."
ACLU's Oklahoma legal director Brady Henderson told The Associated Press that if the State government was willing to accept one religious expression on public property, it must also accept others.
"We would prefer to see Oklahoma's government officials work to faithfully serve our communities and improve the lives of Oklahomans instead of erecting granite monuments to show us all how righteous they are," Henderson said. "But if the Ten Commandments, with its overtly Christian message, is allowed to stay at the Capitol, the Satanic Temple's proposed monument cannot be rejected because of its different religious viewpoint."
Days after the Satanists' proposal, the Universal Society of Hinduism also announced plans to request room at the Oklahoma Capitol for a statue. That group wants to memorialize the Hindu god Hanuman, the monkey king.
"If the Oklahoma state capitol was open to different monuments, we would love to have a statue of Lord Hanuman," Rajan Zed, the organization's president, said in a press release.

Board backs wider view of base pay for public workers
The Ventura County Board of Retirement narrowly sided Monday with labor's position that a new state pension law retains pay supplements that critics say have led to spiking.
But the board suspended implementing the decision for 60 days amid questions about what legislators meant to include in compensation that counts for pensions.
The board must define what compensation counts toward a pension for government employees covered by the county's retirement system. The board's interpretation in a 5-4 vote is tentative but would take effect unless there is some reason to change it, said Donald Kendig, administrator of the system.
That could come before the end of the month, when the California Public Employees' Retirement System weighs in on the question, officials said.
Tracy Towner, vice chairman of the county retirement board, said Monday's vote should also help the board avoid litigation from the Ventura County Taxpayers Association and labor unions.
At issue was what legislators meant when they said in the law that compensation counted toward pensions should be limited to "base pay" for employees hired after Jan. 1. The law prohibits a variety of payments from going into that calculation, including uniform and vehicle allowances, cashed-out vacation time and most forms of overtime.
But the legislation does not specifically name hundreds of other supplements that can boost salaries by tens of thousands of dollars beyond what's called base pay. They include bonuses for advanced degrees and certifications, recruiting premiums, longevity bonuses and assignment differentials for working at night or in hazardous duty.
"Logic tells me they must be included, or otherwise they would have been expressly excluded," Stephen Silver, the Santa Monica attorney representing public safety unions, told the retirement board.
Silver represented the Ventura County Deputy Sheriffs' Association in the lawsuit that led the California Supreme Court in 1997 to define the earnings on which pensions are based as virtually anything paid in cash. Current employees retain that broader pay formula under the law, but the question is whether new employees are entitled to have those earnings count as part of the compensation on which their pensions will be based.
Craig Winter, a pharmacist at Ventura County Medical Center, said pharmacists' earnings can be 27 percent to 39 percent above the base. They get that extra money because they have advanced degrees, special certifications, shift differentials and recruiting premiums, he said.
"To exclude that as part of the pensionable contribution would not be fair to new pharmacists," he said. "Make the pensionable compensation based on the normal rate of pay, not their base pay."
County Executive Officer Mike Powers took a strict view based on the opinion of County Counsel Leroy Smith. In a memo issued Friday, Smith said "base pay" means only the basic hourly rate cited for each job on the county's human resources website.
County Chief Financial Officer Paul Derse urged the retirement board to support that as well.
"Keep it simple; keep it straightforward," Derse said at the meeting packed with union members and attorneys.
With the law taking effect Jan. 1, the county auditor's office plans to begin calculating retirement contributions for new employees based on Smith's definition. The retirement board in the same 5-4 split voted to ask the auditor to base contributions on the more expansive interpretation of base pay but hold the money in reserve in case the decision is reversed.
Derse said officials would probably consider that but still planned to base their payroll on the strict definition of base pay.
Towner, a senior investigator in the District Attorney's Office, proposed that fellow retirement board members support the more liberal definition of base pay. Also voting in favor were Art Goulet, a retired county public works director; county Treasurer-Tax Collector Steven Hintz; county firefighter Chris Johnston, and county respiratory care specialist Tom Johnston.
Voting on the losing side were Chairman Bill Wilson, attorney Joe Henderson, county Supervisor Peter Foy and Ventura resident Albert Harris.

BHOPAL: Scientists at Defence and Research Development Organization (DRDO), Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh, have developed a lethal death trap based on lure and kill strategy to combat dengue transmitting aedes mosquitoes.
The device, which has come at a time when India has recorded 35,000 dengue cases and over 400 fatalities till January 2012, would help immensely to implement control method in short time, claim researchers.
After 72 hours, post-blood meal gravid mosquitoes intensely search for egg laying site using vision and sense of smell. At this stage, they are weak fliers. The parasite spends lot of time in assessing suitability of water to lay eggs. If this water is treated with a suitable oviposition stimulant/attractant, gravid females spend more time to lay most of eggs.
A team of entomologists led by Thangaraj Seenivasagan at DRDO, Gwalior, exploited this behaviour mediated by chemical factors that modify behaviour of gravid female mosquitoes at treated oviposition sites.
Kavita Sharma, a research fellow conducted systematic oviposition bioassays and observed huge number of eggs being deposited onto propyl octadecanoate (PO) treated water surface for up to one week by the female of anopheles stephensi and aedes aegypti under laboratory conditions, among a series of sixteen ester compounds synthesized by chemists A N Rao and Ganesan.
Research found that the gravid females are attracted to treated water by fruity smell of propyl octadecanoate and killed by minute quantity of insecticide as soon as they touch water for egg laying.
The research organization has now developed a prototype of lethal ovi-trap for mosquitoes. The results are promising under laboratory conditions, which will undergo rigorous testing under semi-field and field conditions before being deployed for control dengue mosquitoes in various endemic locations in the country.
M P Kaushik, director, DRDO, is of the opinion that the technology, as part of integrated vector management, would help reduce dengue transmission.
Egg laying activity targeted
Researchers targeted this period of peak activity of gravid female mosquitoes, which intensely search for oviposition sites (any water body- holding as low as 100ml of water=tea cup size) with visual and chemical smell releasing from water source. If mosquitoes do not find any water body in 7 days, they automatically die because of eggs in their abdomen.

Sensitive Skin Problems and Solutions
1. Rosacea
- This sensitive skin condition affects 3% of the population, is chronic and may vary from mild to severe. The solution is to manage it to minimize the symptoms such as flushing, and small pus-filled bumps on the face.
- Dermatologists agree certain medications may actually make rosacea worse (Medicinenet).
- Since inflammation is a main cause of rosacea, it's best to avoid ingredients that contribute to inflammation. (American Academy of Dermatology). These can include foods such as refined sugars, refined grains (white flour), oils such as sunflower, peanut or corn oil, trans fats, regular consumption of alcohol, products with high fructose corn syrup.
- Skin care or cosmetic products that promote inflammation include sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), fragrances and many botanicals. It's important to only use SLS free products such as SLS free shampoo and toothpaste. Many botanical and plant extracts can also cause inflammation. It's best to use sensitive skin care products that are plant free.
- Adult acne affects 30% of women and 20% of men ages 20 to 60. It's reported that the cause of adult acne starts with clogged pores that attract bacteria, become inflamed and cause breakouts (WebMD). The trigger for adult acne includes overproduction of hormones, sensitive skin, and ingredients in skin care or cosmetics clogging pores.
- To treat adult acne it's important to determine your skin type. Avoid strong cleansers and soaps with SLS.
- Keeping your skin clean with a gentle cleanser is important. Wash your face twice daily with warm water and a non-soap face wash or cleanser.
- Acne products are typically harsh and may include benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid and retinoids. These may help temporarily, but may also cause irritation to sensitive skin.
- Remove dead cells regularly with a gentle exfoliating scrub.
- Antibiotics may help temporarily, but without a proper daily skin care routine and the right products, breakouts will continue.
- Focus on vegetables rich meals, free of refined sugars and carbohydrates. Fish and chicken are the best choice for healthy skin.
3. Burning and Stinging
- Most common cause of burning and itching is dry skin, and inflammation causing a rash. The rash could be caused by an allergy or contact with an irritating ingredient.
- Allergens can be gluten or salicylates found in food, skin creams or cosmetics containing botanicals or harsh chemicals.
- Other causes include medical conditions such as kidney failure (American Family Physician) or and infection. Certain medications, even aspirin, food additives or B vitamins can contribute to burning and stinging of the skin.
- Determining the cause is the important step towards relief.
- Read ingredients and use effective sensitive skin care products.
4. Allergies
- According to the American Academy of Dermatology, you may be truly allergic to an ingredient or you may only be irritated by it. For example, you may get a rash when you use a certain brand of mascara. When you stop using it, your skin problem clears up.
- Always read ingredient lists on labels. Botanicals, parabens, formaldehyde agents, and fragrances in your skin care products are the enemy of sensitive skin.
- Always do a patch test by applying a small amount of a new product on the inside of your arm. Wait for 24 hours and see if you react negatively. To test a new product, try one at a time at least a week apart.
Cleure offers a complete line of sensitive skin care products for all skin types. With the proper gentle cleansers and moisturizers, your skin can heal and strengthen to a radiant, beautiful, confident you.

Minutes 09/15/08
University of Virginia School of Medicine
Clinical Medicine Committee
Attending: Drs. Keeley, Tucker, A. Innes, D. Innes, Short, Herrington, Heald, Geldmacher, Bray, Wilson, Darci Lieb, Anne, Chapin, Jason Franasiak.
The meeting was called to order at 5 PM.
Don Innes reviewed the agenda for the retreat planned for Saturday, September 20. The theme of the retreat will be "Integrating the Curriculum".
Dr. Short and Darci Lieb reviewed the format for the March 2009 "Basic Sciences for Careers". For this course, the class has been divided into two groups, with one group attending sessions March 2-5 (Monday-Thursday) and the second attending sessions March 10-13 (Tuesday-Friday). Each of the clerkships is to provide 12 two-hour sessions per week (a total of 24 sessions). Sessions are from 9:00-11:00 am, 1:00-3:00 pm and 3:00-5:00 pm each day. The session from the first week can be repeated the second week or different sessions added. A potentially popular session can be repeated at a different time during a single week. About 10 students will attend each session. This will potentially allow for more interactive learning and more of a "workshop" environment for the sessions. Please send the topics, dates, and instructors for the 24 sessions of BS4C to Darci Lieb by October 1, 2008. There will be a lottery through which students can choose and be assigned their sessions.
Allison Innes presented the draft calendar for the 2009-2010 academic year. This calendar includes 6 eight week clerkship periods (an increase from the current calendar of 5 periods), and includes the new 8-week geriatrics/anesthesia/life skills/selectives block that has been proposed. The tentative plan calls for the two 2-week surgical selectives to be a part of this block. There was considerable discussion about whether there should be an option for some students to take the two 2-week medicine selectives during that time instead of the surgical selectives. There was also concern that having a combination of 4th year students and 3rd year students on the selectives might stress the capacity of those experiences, and might lead to difficulty in student assessment since there could be learners with very different previous experiences on the same selective. These additional suggestions will be investigated before the final plan is in place.
The meeting was adjourned at 6 PM.
Respectfully submitted,
William G. Wilson, MD
Chair, Clinical Medicine Committee

Have you seen this commercial from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute's the "Heart Truth" campaign featuring a can of Diet Coke? I've seen it a few times, and did question whether Coca-Cola really was the right sponsor for a heart healthy campaign…
So, I was not surprised to see this blog post from the New York Times Well blog covering the story and the controversy in its entirety. According to the NYTimes blog, the Center for Science in the Public Interest is taking particular offense to the Diet Coke sponsorship of the Heart Truth campaign, comparing it with a cigarette company sponsoring an anti-smoking ad. Wow! Coca-Cola defended it's involvement with the campaign, saying they've helped raise awareness of heart disease in women, and offered heart health screenings across the country.
What do you think?
While you're thinking about it, check out this article from the Philadelphia Inquirer that tackles the "simple" steps you can take to have a healthy heart. Forget the quick fixes and magic bullets – and think long-term-healthy lifestyle. It's easier than you might think!

Rating: 4 / 5
Not exactly ultra light in its double wall configuration, we consider this our one luxury item when light-packing for two or three. Worth every cubic inch in a rainout, a great value anyway you cut it. I weighed it at just under 6lbs with the footprint. I get to carry it, but the person who really loves our new tent is "The Mrs", this is the perfect honeymoon tent after twenty years of marriage. Drop the mosquito netting and go with the footprint and rain fly to drop a few more pounds. Between the two of us, we don't mind the weight in either configuration. You can peg out the skirt of the fly away from the bathtub floor for great airflow, it has cool eyelid vents that Velcro prop-open as needed. The aluminum structure is bombproof, if not slightly asymmetrical front to rear, I guess it has radial symmetry, but is very sturdy in the wind and pouring-down rain. Weight is cut from the pole structure by only having one of the three poles go corner to corner all the way to the ground, the other two only touch the ground with one end, the other ends connecting to grommet straps sewn into the upper corners of the tent fabric. With its high bathtub line, this tent is bone dry in a heavy rain, very comfortable. The rain-fly is laid out diagonally with a white fabric panel that matches the white ceiling panel on the tent screen, this makes for a bright skylight or moonlight…everybody knows; day or night, it's all about the light. Pockets all over the place and lots of room for her stuff, can you say, "peace in the valley"? Here's a tip: make this baby breathe, use all six of the tent pegs to guy out the tarp, creating an airfoil, don't bother pegging down the four corners of the footprint and screen inside. I'm thinking of tricking this thing out with some new titanium pegs and lightweight reflective guy lines…luxury.

I was letting the girls look to their hearts content while reminiscing about my own childhood, when I noticed a certain doll. Nothing was telling about this baby doll. Really it was just a doll with a pacifier and blanket. Marked for $10.99. I told Meridian that if she wanted she could buy it and I would pay the difference (the gift card was for $10).
And then my eyes noticed something sitting right next to this doll.
The same exact doll, except she was Caucasian and when my eyes wandered to the price I was astounded to see it listed at $11.99.
$1 more than the same doll that was African American.
My heart sank. As a mama to an African American daughter, I did not like the message that was being sent out to her, my other daughters, or anyone else.
I sent out a Tweet to Target when I got home that said:
This morning I woke up to a tweet from them asking me to contact them along with their contact info. When I saw that they wanted me to contact them I questioned whether or not $1 was worth it?
I mean, it's only a dollar. Not a big deal, right?
But then I thought what if $1 is a big deal to her?? What if it is a big deal to them?? Those who have been told their whole life that they aren't as important, aren't as needed, aren't as valuable compared to the white people.
And because I vowed to never stay silent and to always fight for my daughter, I called them.

DANE, Wis. - Hedge fund manager Eric Hovde entered Wisconsin's Republican U.S. Senate race Thursday, attempting to position himself as an anti-government conservative even though his company invested in banks that received billions in government bail outs.
Hovde, 47, has been rumored as a potential candidate for the open U.S. Senate seat for months. He officially launched his campaign with a series of stops across the state on Thursday.
A political newcomer running his first statewide campaign, Hovde is taking on one of the biggest names in Wisconsin politics, former Gov. Tommy Thompson. Other Republicans in the race include state Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald and former U.S. Rep. Mark Neumann.
The only Democrat in the race is U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin.
They are running for the seat being vacated by retiring Democratic Sen. Herb Kohl.
In his campaign launch at a manufacturing company north of Madison, Hovde lashed out at the federal stimulus program and bank bailout program known as TARP, saying the government was "addicted to spending."
"They were bailed out with our money, our taxpayer money, without any consequences," he said.
But U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission records show that Hovde's company invested in at least 33 banks that received $29 billion in TARP money.
When asked about it, Hovde differentiated between owning banks that received federal bailouts and investing in them.
"None of the banks that I owned took TARP money," he said.
That comment is consistent with what Hovde said in a 2009 interview on CNBC when he spoke out against how TARP was organized, but not government bailing out banks.
"Without question I was an advocate from the get-go to inject capital into the banking system," he said then. "But you should've done it on terms that were a little bit more punitive and required them to act with private capital along with it as well as putting the government's money, taxpayers' money, in the most senior position."
Hovde later told the Associated Press there was "no way" he could have avoided investing in banks that got TARP money because so many of them had.
Wisconsin Democratic Party Chairman Mike Tate characterized Hovde as out of touch with the concerns of the middle class.
"Wisconsin doesn't need a multimillionaire carpetbagger trying to buy a seat in the U.S. Senate by trying to trick working families into thinking he somehow understands their struggle," Tate said in a statement.
Hovde lived in Washington, D.C., for 24 years relocated in July to Madison, where he grew up. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is married with two children.
Hovde is chief executive officer of Hovde Capital Advisors, a hedge fund management company, and he also has real estate investments and interests in community banks. He and his brother also run a charitable foundation.
Hovde is expected to spend his own money on trying to raise his profile among voters, but he refused to say Thursday how much of his money he would spend or when his first television ads would launch.
"I'm going to make a commitment, but my race is not about how much I spend," he said.
Hovde's campaign comes after Ron Johnson, another political newcomer, came out of nowhere in 2010 and spent millions of his own money to defeat Democratic incumbent Sen. Russ Feingold. Even though Hovde faces a crowded field of experienced Republican opponents, he said he thinks his lack of political experience is an asset.
"I think the American people are tired of electing career politicians," he said.
Fitzgerald issued a statement welcoming Hovde into the race, but touting his own experience as Assembly speaker working to pass a conservative agenda the past two years that included Gov. Scott Walker's budget plan that effectively ended collective bargaining rights for most public workers.
Neumann's campaign manager Chip Englander said Hovde's record, and the fact that he lived the past 24 years in Washington, will not sell with conservative voters this year.
Thompson's campaign spokesman Darrin Schmitz issued a dismissive statement on Hovde's candidacy.
"We don't know much about Eric Hovde since he just moved here, but Gov. Thompson has never campaigned looking over his shoulder," Schmitz said.
The Republican primary is Aug. 14.

If the plan says 4K intervals max total distance, does that mean 4K of speed portion only or both speed and recovery portion? It also says 15 min warmup and 15 min cool down, I'm guessing thse don't count towards the 4K or there would be no distance left.
The 4k is just the actual intervals, not the recovery or warmup / cooldown.
For example - 15 minute warmup, 10x400 with 400 jogs, 16 minute cooldown would equal 4k intervals under this plan.
2015 goals: run a bunch....race some.....repeat...
Thank you!
Oh dear. The 6k intervals I have on my plan just got harder!
Run Perry
Perry, I thought the same thing. I thought tomorrow's run would be "easy" because I thought it was only 4K total, it just got harder by a lot.
Keep in mind that's maximum. You might want to build up to that. Also, take a look at the pace chart where you can do them by distance or duration.
(I think if I followed the max directions, my intervals could be longer than the longest long run specified - or close to it. I'm not there yet. Also trying to figure out how RPE up to 9 can be 1/4 or 1/2 effort.)
This is an excellent point. You should only run intervals while you are able to maintain good form and consistent pace. I use the pace from RunningWizard as a guideline but generally try to run them at a pace that is hard but sustainable. (1/4 effort=hard, 1/2 effort=harder, 3/4 effort=pretty damn hard). If you find yourself at repeat 8 of a 10x400 workout where you don't think you can continue with a hard but controlled effort, it is time to stop.
A couple of years ago (in my pre RunningWizard era), I was at the track running a 6x800 workout at a pace that was beyond my capacity. In repeat 5, my form went south and I lost my footing while running at a very fast pace. The resulting stumble ended with landing hard on my left heal which caused a stress fracture. Six weeks in a boot with no running was a hard way to learn the lesson that intervals are a potential source of injury if done incorrectly.
As Nobby said in class..... "When in doubt.....do less".
I think this workout was above my beginner head. I ran it on a TM so I could hold the correct pace. I honestly don't think I ran the intervals hard enough as I felt like I could've kept going. The description on this workout confused me. I ended up doing 5 x 800s with 400 recoveries because my hr was120 or less after 400.
I beg to differ! It sounds like you did just fine. You SHOULD feel like you could do more after these intervals. You shouldn't feel like death afterwards because the point is not to run as fast as you can, it's to get - as Nobby said elsewhere on here - "a stimulus for some amount of time". Which you did. So, win!
I felt the same way during my interval training phase, wondering if I was running fast enough because the workouts didn't seem that hard while I was doing them. But the cumulative effect of 2 interval workouts + 1 PCR per week turned out to be pretty exhausting, even without running them super-fast.
It must be because I have a 4 day per week plan, but I only have one interval workout and the PCR in a week. I noticed the description and some of you have mentioned more than one interval session in a week.
