More Seafair Navy sights: South Seattle Community College instructor's Blue Angels ridealong; USS Bonhomme Richard arrivesAugust 2, 2011 at 4:01 pm | In Blue Angels, Seen at sea, West Seattle news | 6 Comments
(Photo by Glenn Gauthier)
One more Blue Angels note, besides today's team arrival: South Seattle Community College math instructor Heidi Lyman has taken that Blue Angels ridealong we previewed here last week – and SSCC's Candace Oehler says Heidi reported shouting at 17,000 feet, "START HERE, GO ANYWHERE!" (That would be the SSCC motto.) She also reported pulling 7.4 g's in one maneuver with U.S. Navy Lt. Dave Tickle in #7, says Candace, who accompanied Heidi to Boeing Field/Museum of Flight.
And as also previewed here, we've had the first Seafair Navy fleet sightings off West Seattle shores:
Via the WSB Facebook page, Russ Walker shared that photo of the USS Bonhomme Richard arriving in Elliott Bay this afternoon. No, it's not an aircraft carrier, as some have called it – it's an amphibious-assault ship. The guided-missile destroyer USS Sampson is here too. You'll see them, and the other visiting ships – plus aircraft flyovers – in the Parade of Ships tomorrow afternoon, starting around 1:45; tours are Thursday-Sunday.

And here's a photo of the USS Sampson arriving earlier:

I love the machinery. I was kayaking halfway between blake island and alki when the first jet came in yesterday. Can't disagree with that level of engineering.
Comment by austin — 9:03 pm August 2, 2011 #
As a Navy mom, I always get tears in my eyes when I see these ships. It has been 10 years since a carrier was here for Seafair – the events of 9/11 happened the month after that "fleet week" in 2001.
You are correct, but that is not the reason as to why there hasn't been a carrier at Fleet Week. Because all our carriers are now Nuclear, there are restrictions as to where they can tie up. IIRC, the only pier that was available (across from the old cruise ship pier, on the east side of Harbor Island) has lost the required certification for that to happen. The city has refused to get it re-certified and the Navy won't pay for it for a once-a-year-three-day-visit. IIRC the last carrier moored the was the USS Enterprise.
Comment by Ex-Westwood Resident — 10:42 am August 3, 2011 #
Thank you, Ex-Westwood Resident, for that explanation. My son (who is a nuke) was serving on the USS Stennis when it was here 10 years ago. I am glad he was able to give tours to friends/family during that time, since it sounds like it may be a long time, if ever, that a carrier visits again.
Huh, I've always wondered since I moved up here why Seattle "Fleet Week's" seemed to only be the smaller ships. That seems like a pretty reasonable explanation to me, Ex-Westwood.

Video: Wolverhampton's glass bridge taking shape
Express & Star
April 11, 2011
April 11, 2011
The striking £1.8 million glass footbridge that will become Wolverhampton's [U.K.] latest landmark was taking shape today [April 11].
A 150-foot-high crane gently lowered five 30-meter-long, 36-ton girders into place across Ring Road St David's on Saturday [April 9] night, with work continuing tonight.
When complete, the bridge will link the city's new £22.5 million bus station to the railway station and carry pedestrians almost 20 feet above the ring road, according to an April 11 Express & Star report.

To follow along with the order of the draft, just start with Edmonton Oilers in the first round, scroll down to the Boston Bruins, then scroll back up. The Bruins made the first pick in the second round in this snake draft.
Any player who is in italics falls into an area where his cap hit is unknown and we simply took a guess at what it would be if and when he signed this offseason. It's clearly not an exact science, but nothing is perfect. We think the numbers we came up with for these players are pretty fair.
We'll eventually plug these rosters into NHL '12 and have the people at EA Sports simulate the season and playoffs and see who comes out on top.
If you have any questions or comments about this, reply to me on Twitter at @DaveLozo. It should also be noted that all cap hits come courtesy of the website CapGeek.com.
Note: NHL.com's Fantasy Re-Draft was conducted in July and Rick Rypien was selected by the Tampa Bay Lightning. Rypien, who passed away on Aug. 15, has been removed from the roster and replaced with Philippe Dupuis.

GENEVA -- Honeybees are vital to the production of blueberries.
That is the reason farmers purchase hives to make their harvests abundant.
It takes about five colonies of bees per acre.
"Without honeybees, they wouldn't make anything," Honeybee Keeper David Eldridge said. "I mean they couldn't get a truckload out of a hundred fields."
Beekeepers split the colonies into separate colonies to keep the bees from swarming. Swarming is when half the hive leaves with the Queen Bee. If the bees swarm, the Queen may lay her eggs. When they hatch, the others will kill all of the Queen bees except for one.
Bumble bees tend to pollinate blueberries better but they die after one year. Honeybees are a better decision financially because they will help with harvests for years to come.

Car with Wood-Burning Stove
Getting into a freezing cold car in the dead of winter is never a fun thing, especially if you live somewhere with lots of snow and ice. Swiss "innovator" Pascal Prokop decided his old Volvo 240's heater wasn't quite doing the job, so he installed a real wood-burning stove in place of the passenger's seat.
Not only does it keep him warm, he can also make s'mores while he drives!

Written by Bill Loftus
MOSCOW – Students in Idaho's rural schools hold their own when compared with their fellow students in towns and cities, according to a report released Thursday by the University of Idaho and Idaho Rural Partnership.
The statistics gathered by university researchers showed rural schools tended to have lower enrollments and were more likely to be losing students, but they also spent more per student and tended to have smaller class sizes. The report focused on the state's most rural school districts, those where the biggest town had fewer than 2,500 residents.
Rural school districts were also more likely to meet federal and state targets tied to the No Child Left Behind Act. Idaho's rural K-12 students, who make up a third of the state's total, also scored nearly the same on both state and federal standardized tests.
Rural students, however, faced challenges, too. They were more likely to come from low-income families and were just as likely to be from families where English is a second language.
Shelby Kerns, Idaho Rural Partnership executive director at Boise, said the report was intended to give Idaho legislators and the public an overview of the success and challenges rural school districts, their students and communities face.
"It's important that they understand the difference and the facts about what's really going on in rural districts," she said.
"Our mission is to educate policy makers. There isn't an agenda -- we simply want everyone to understand the status and the facts," Kerns said. "There are different strengths and challenges, and we can't treat everyone the same."
"Our rural school districts can't be lumped into any broad generalization," Kerns said. "Some are doing great and some struggle a little more. Rural students are doing well overall, but there are other challenges we need to address."
"Rural students tend to be more likely to come from low-income families," Kerns said. "Those factors create some definite challenges for rural schools because those districts also tend to face greater funding challenges."
There also are some areas where rural education is doing great, Kerns said, and even outperforming schools in cities and towns.
The report, "Idaho at a Glance: Rural Education 2009," assembled data from a variety of sources, said Christy Dearien, the University of Idaho's principal researcher on the project at Moscow.
Among the most notable statistics, she said, included the overall decline in rural school enrollment. Nearly two-thirds of rural schools have lost 10 percent or more of their students over the last 10 years.
"The report confirms what we thought about Idaho's hard working, rural teachers, school board members, and superintendents," said Priscilla Salant, the University of Idaho's coordinator for outreach and engagement and an author on the report. "They're holding their own against the odds. The question is what's going to happen when their budgets become even tighter than they are now."
In addition to the Idaho Rural Partnership and the University of Idaho, the Idaho National Laboratory also provided support for the project. More information is available online at www.ag.uidaho.edu/uicsc/ruraled.

ROCKTON — Hononegah built a 19-0 cushion before Harlem rattled off seven straight wins and rolled to a nine-point victory in the biggest dual of the NIC-10 season last week.
ROCKTON — Hononegah built a 19-0 cushion before Harlem rattled off seven straight wins and rolled to a nine-point victory in the biggest dual of the NIC-10 season last week.
Now it's time to see who will come out on top in the league's postseason tournament.
"There's a lot of pride involved, for every team. And when it comes to Harlem and Hononegah, there's a nice rivalry there, and it makes it that much more fun," Harlem coach Cal Ferry said shortly after his team completed its third straight undefeated conference-dual season. "And we know it'll be different at (the conference) meet. We're going to have to be ready again."
From the looks of the standings and rankings, Saturday's NIC-10 meet should come down to two-time defending champion Harlem and the former six-time title holders from Hononegah. Both teams have eight wrestlers in the lineup with 20-plus wins, and Harlem was ranked seventh in the latest state polls while Hononegah came in at eighth.
"When was the last time the conference had two teams ranked in the top 10 this late in the year? I can't remember it," Hononegah coach Justin Wieman said. "Of course we want to win this one; we always want to win, and this would be a big one to get."
Manny Silva (29-2) is the only Indian ranked in the current Illinois Matmen's top five, and he's fifth at 138. Tyler DeMoss (34-4 at 160) and Zach Benkovich (20-5 at 152) are the only other Hononegah wrestlers who show up in the polls, and they are both ranked 12th. But this is a motivated Hononegah team that has gained momentum, and respect, throughout the season.
"We're different this year; we feel different, more confident, every time we go into a big matchup," Silva said. "And this one coming up, for us anyway, this one is a big one."
Harlem is led by defending state champion and No. 2-ranked Jordan Northrup (28-1 at 126). And Kailor Hecox (27-5 at 220) has climbed up to fifth in the rankings with a strong second half. The Huskies will send four wrestlers onto the mat looking for back-to-back league titles.
But the Huskies will have to overcome the Indians' depth.
Silva, DeMoss and Joey Welsh (28-9 at 182) are chasing repeat titles, while Silva's brother Fernie Silva (31-5 at 145) has climbed into the league-title picture as well.
Belvidere North has a pair of defending conference champs in Ricardo Roman (24-6 at 113) and Erik Nord (17-1 at 126). Nord just returned last week a month away due to a concussion, but he is wrestling as well as he has all year, according to Blue Thunder coach Tyrone Fambro.
"Those guys are dialed in. They know what's coming up," Fambro said. "It's showtime now. My guys know it."
Page 2 of 2 - East's Mike Estergard lost out to Freeport's Kendal Parker 2-1 in double overtime of the conference-tourney final at heavyweight last year. They're both back as seniors — as is 160-pound defending champ Ryan Johnson of Boylan.

DENVER, Colo. Authorities say one of two men who were shot and killed by Denver police was unarmed but had struck an officer with a stolen car and rammed police vehicles.
Police Chief Robert White said Thursday the other man had pulled a gun when officers tried to arrest him during a drug sting.
Both shootings occurred Wednesday but there appeared to be no direct link between them. No names have been released.
The Denver Post reports the officer who was struck by the stolen vehicle suffered minor injuries.
White says officers were trying to arrest one suspect on felony warrants and had followed him to a funeral home when the shootings occurred.
The suspect in the drug sting was shot in a parking lot at a city park.

3 things learned from Chivas USA's defeat of SJ
In a gutsy showing, Chivas USA earned their first victory on the road, coming back from an early deficit to defeat the San Jose Earthquakes at Buck Shaw Stadium on Saturday night.
With just one win, the Goats catapulted themselves from the bottom of MLS to around mid-table. Now undefeated in their last four matches, they'll look for a positive result at home to build further momentum.
Here are the three things we learned from last weekend's victory:
Zarek Valentin belongs at right back
The rookie defender (pictured above) has spent a great deal of time playing center back for Chivas USA, but a confident performance against San Jose may have locked down the right back position. Starting in place of the injured Michael Lahoud, Valentin put in a confident performance against the Quakes attack.
To add to his performance on defense, Valentin also provided support on the attack making a key pass to Justin Braun that helped lead to the game-winning goal. With Jimmy Conrad nearly ready to return from a concussion and Heath Pearce looking composed at center back, it is likely that Valentin may need to look to the right back spot to earn playing time.
Energy and grit are vital to this team's success
Perhaps borrowing a page out of the San Jose playbook from last season, the Goats were routinely able force mistakes and then capitalize on them. Throughout the match, Chivas USA were able to continually control the game by outfighting the Quakes midfield for possession.
The finest example of the grit, though, was on the second goal, when a well-timed run by Mariano Trujillo allowed the defender to put in the rebound off Braun's shot in the 85th minute. For Chivas USA to begin to string together more victories, the Rojiblancos must continue to outwork teams around the field and remain a difficult team to play against.
The Justin Braun on the wing experiment may be over
After spending his entire season on the flanks, second-half substitute Braun lined up at forward and made an immediate impact. He made several dangerous runs past Earthquakes defenders that helped Chivas USA regain momentum in a match that looked to be turning in favor of San Jose.
Braun's finest run came on the game-winner, when he beat two San Jose defenders and fired the shot that Trujillo put back in off the rebound. Following the match, when head coach Robin Fraser was asked where Braun's best position was, he stated it was likely up top. With that energetic performance from Braun, it looks like Fraser may have finally found the influential forward for whom he has been looking.

text: Sonar Image May Show Earhart's Plane Off island of Nikumaroro By Matt Cantor, Newser User Posted May 30, 2013 7:49 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (39) (Newser) – A team of experts that has been chasing Amelia Earhart's elusive trail for years may be closer than ever to solving the mystery of her 1937 disappearance. The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR) had more than a decade ago pinpointed the Pacific island of Nikumaroro as the location where her plane likely went down; now, they say newly analyzed underwater sonar images taken during a 2012 island visit support their theory. What's described by Deutsche Welle as a "grainy" photo reveals something about 600 feet below the water's surface, says TIGHAR: an "anomaly." "The most prominent part of the anomaly appears to be less than 32 feet long," explains TIGHAR on its website; it notes the plane was 38 feet 7 inches long. Discovery reports that the anomaly "lines up nicely" with another possible debris field. "If our theory about what happened is correct"—that theory being that Earhart's plane landed on reef flats but soon washed into the sea—"this is exactly what we would expect to see in just the place we would expect to see it," the group's executive director tells Deutsche Welle. Now TIGHAR is hoping to secure funding for an "independent comprehensive analysis of all the sonar data" obtained last year and a trip back to the island. In the meantime, a quasi-independent assessment from the inventor of the submersible vehicle used in last year's search lends credence: "This target looks very promising. Definitely not a rock, it's in the correct location on the reef." In a March 10, 1937 file photo, Amelia Earhart waves from the Electra before taking off from Los Angeles, Ca., on March 10, 1937.

for an awesome experience!
|Mike Beatty poses with his 39-point buck he killed with a compound bow on Wednesday, Nov. 8, 2000, in Greene County, Ohio. The deer's antlers measured more than 291 inches which if stands will be a state and world record. (AP Photo/The Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife)
| Justin Meese from Urichsville stands proud of his
first (7 point buck).
The buck was harvested while hunting with his favorite partner Chuck Meese.
Justin passed his Hunter Education Class in 1999 with flying colors and was excited about getting to go hunting. Congratulations from your Instructors Rick Duill, Bill Walton, Butch Crabtree & Mark Anderson for a job well done! Please ask Chuck if he will send us a picture of that legendary "Sassafras Buck"?
|Hunter Education Instructor Rick Duill holds up a
nice (9) point buck harvested
in the Adena, Ohio area last year.
| I was hunting alone. I also believe in the law of averages, if you see enough deer, sooner or later you will have
the big one come by.
I have been hunting since jr high. I'm now 26. This is the biggest deer I have ever shot with bow or gun. My son and I both use compound bows,
no sights and hunt from the ground. The scary thing is we have one bigger than this one running does in the feild not 200 yards from our house.
He will be a tuff one. I only see him at night or at 5:00 am in the morning. This buck in the pictures was shot as he was turning away from me.
If he had not turned, I would have shot him threw the chest. He grunted all the way in. I think he thought I was a deer.
I guess the priceless picture would read $50 used bear bow that's 14 years old, 2117 grandslam easton arrow with 125 grain Muzzy broad head,
9 point trophy buck in one shot. PRICELESS.
See ya, Bill Warne
|Chris Basich with 7-Point buck taken in 2001. Adena, Ohio Jefferson County, killed with a knight muzzleloader, over 130 yards away. ...GOOD SHOT CHRIS !!!
|Brian Martin takes a nice 9 -Point buck in Adena, Ohio area in Harrison County. Deer was shot over 200 yds. away with a Remington 870, it was hit in the lungs and ran about 300 yds were it dropped.
|This nice (12 point) was harvested by Hunter Education Instructor RICK DUILL while hunting on the
Moore farm near adena, Ohio. Two shots well placed in the neck stopped the Big Buck in its tracks. The buck dressed out at 203 pounds.
Click HERE to see a larger picture. Use your "BACK button to return to this page.
|Howard Snyder hunted most of the week before this (8) point buck decided to jump onto the front of his new truck while traveling the Harrisville/Adena road. From the looks of the damage to the truck, we would guess that buck is worth about a $1,000.00
|Mike "DEVO" Veronis bagged this nice, well balanced (8) point buck near Adena with one shot from about 150 yards out. The buck was laying in cover with the fresh snow as a backdrop.
|Our man John bagged this buck on the Moore farm near Adena.
|Chris Basich holds up this nice (8) pointer harvested from the family property near Adena during the 2002 deer gun season. Chris prefers to use the Night Muzzleloader.
|Jay Duill harvested a nice buck. We'll post the story as soon as he gets it to me!!
|Perry shot this bragging size 10 point buck during the 2002 season. We are waiting on the story for this one too!
|My cousin Ed Gura bagged this nice 10 pointer
on Dec 5th with one shot through the shoulder.
|My cousin Gin bagged this nice
10 point with a crossbow. This is not her first one either. Gin usually brings home the venison every year! Her husband Jim hasn't sent any pictures of his buck yet.
|Young Tommy Cominsky Jr did a fine job harvesting this (7) point buck.
After downing the deer Tommy filled out his tag, unloaded his firearm, like his Hunter Education Instructor taught him to do.
Just ask the fellow that borrowed Tommy's firearm a little while later. He'll verify it was unloaded!
Joe Marco beside Tommy and Tommy's Dad in the background telling more stories!
|Joe Marco--------10 point
Scott Russell--------8 point
Tom Cominsky Jr.-------7 point
Young Tommy got a....7 point
Don Sempkowski------7 point & a Doe
|Dave Case of Medina bagged this deer at the Adena Hunting & Fishing Club.
|Denny Busch of Bridgeport bagged this deer at the Adena Hunting & Fishing Club.
|Jim Taylor of Medina bagged one of these deer at the Adena Hunting & Fishing Club.
|Richard Bomboris bagged one of these deer at the Adena Hunting & Fishing Club.
|It's easy to see the awesome size of this buck using the tailgate as comparison and how far the rack extends beyond the ears!! The next photo shows Frank holding the buck.
|Frank emailed me and this is what he said: "Well my friend it is official I had the deer scored by the gentleman who is a official scorer" The deer scored 174 and 6/8 which means that it qualify for the record book with "Buckeye Big Buck Club" and also for "Boone and Crockett" "Buckmasters" system is a little different but they scored it at 161 and 6/8 and then when they add the spread it scores 185 and 6/8 so it also qualify for their record books.

Madonna looked AMAZING tonight at the Golden Globe Awards in s STUNNING Reem Acra gown. Wella Professionals Celebrity Stylist Andy LeCompte has provided his inside scoop on styling the pop icon with Wella Professional for her win on tonight's Golden Globes Awards.
Madonna styled by Andy LeCompte, Wella Professionals Celebrity Stylist
According to Andy, "Madonna wanted easy natural texture hair."
"To start, I rough dried her hair manipulating and emphasizing her natural texture. Next I applied a mist of Wella's Thermal Image Heat Protection Spray to protect the hair from thermal heat as well as give the hair a slight bit of texture. I spray this before I use my FHI platform 1 inch flat iron to make soft S formations, giving the hair a natural wave texture. Then finish with a mist of Wella Professionals Ocean Spritz Beach Texture Spray. One of Andy's fave product, he says "I love Wella's Ocean Spritz to break up the texture."
Looks amazing to me!! What do you think??
Stay Pretty!!

|Determination of tenuazonic acid in human urine by means of a stable isotope dilution assay.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23397093 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|The content of tenuazonic acid in human urine was determined by a stable isotope dilution assay (SIDA) that was recently developed for the analysis of food commodities and extensively re-validated for urine matrix in this study. Linearity of the response curve was proven between molar ratios n(labeled standard)/n(analyte) of 0.02-100. The limits of detection and determination were 0.2 and 0.6 μg/L, respectively. The mean recovery of the stable isotope dilution assay was 102 ± 3 % in the range between 1.0 and 100 μg/L. Interassay precision was 6.7 % (relative standard deviation of three triplicate analyses of a human urine sample during 3 weeks). The method was applied to two studies dealing with urinary excretion of tenuazonic acid: In the first study, tenuazonic acid was quantified in the 24-h urine of six volunteers from Germany (three female, three male) in a concentration range of 1.3-17.3 μg/L or 2.3-10.3 ng/mg(-1) creatinine, respectively. In the second study, two volunteers (one female, one male) ingested 30 μg tenuazonic acid by consumption of naturally contaminated whole meal sorghum infant cereals and tomato juice, respectively. The urinary excretion of the ingested tenuazonic acid was 54-81 % after 6 h, depending on matrix and volunteer. After 24 h, 87-93 % of the ingested amount of tenuazonic acid was excreted, but the fate of the remaining about 10 % is open. Thus, it is not possible to exclude potential health hazards for the consumer, completely.

Phillips Avenue will be closed Friday between 6th and 8th Streets. But, it's not for more construction; it's about going green.
The goal of the Plain Green Conference is to rejuvenate the plain green living idea that came about a few years ago. The daylong event at the Orpheum Theater is open to the public. To take part, registration costs $130 or teachers and students can get a reduced rate of $40.
"That includes all the speakers, the marketplace, food for the day, lots of other, like I said there are so many just little small things," Plain Green Committee Member Brooke Orcutt said.
The event will also include a farmer's market and goody bags on helping participants live green.

November 29, 2015
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Authorities in Cookeville are investigating nearly a half-dozen fires that have destroyed portable toilets at construction sites.
Fire Chief John Kendrick said the fires might be funny to some, but arson is a serious crime.
Among several cases is one early Sunday that destroyed one of the plastic and fiberglass toilets at a church construction site.
Kendrick said the units burn hot and fast.
He said a brick wall kept the fire on Sunday from spreading and seriously damaging the building under construction.
The chief thinks five recent toilet fires may the work of the same vandals who think it's cute to torch the toilets.

What to wear to a daytime luncheon wedding?
Q. I am attending a wedding in February (in Chicago). It is a morning wedding with a luncheon following. I have a cap sleeved navy silk sheath dress with a black patent leather belt. My question is do I wear hosiery? If so, what color? Peek a boo shoes or classic pumps?
A. February in Chicago can be quite cold. Black solid tights or black textured tights paired with either peep-toe pumps or classic pumps is your best bet. The black/navy combination is a perfectly chic option for your daytime wedding.

|Mouse with Na(v)1.1 haploinsufficiency, a model for Dravet syndrome, exhibits lowered sociability and learning impairment.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22986304 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Dravet syndrome is an intractable epileptic encephalopathy characterized by early onset epileptic seizures followed by cognitive decline, hyperactivity, autistic behaviors and ataxia. Most Dravet syndrome patients possess heterozygous mutations of SCN1A gene encoding voltage-gated sodium channel α(I) subunit (Na(v)1.1). We have previously reported that mice heterozygous for a nonsense mutation in Scn1a developed early onset epileptic seizures. However, the learning ability and sociability of the mice remained to be investigated. In the present study, we subjected heterozygous Scn1a mice to a comprehensive behavioral test battery. We found that while heterozygous Scn1a mice had lowered spontaneous motor activity in home cage, they were hyperactive in novel environments. Moreover, the mice had low sociability and poor spatial learning ability that correspond to the autistic behaviors and cognitive decline seen in Dravet syndrome patients. These results suggest that Na(v)1.1 haploinsufficiency intrinsically contributes to not only epileptic seizures but also lowered sociability and learning impairment in heterozygous Scn1a mutant mice, as it should also be the case in patients with Dravet syndrome.

Herb of the Month for December 2011 - Bay
This month from my exploding herb cabinet I bring you Bay Leaves. Bay is one of the first herbs I got when I began collecting and jarring herbs. It has multiple uses dating back to the ancient Olympic games and beyond. Because of its long history it has quite a few folk names. Bay Laurel, Baie, Daphne, Grecian Laural, Laurier d'Apollon, Noble Laurel, Roman Laurel and Sweet Bay are a few of its folk names. Its ruling element is fire and its planet is the Sun. Bay is a masculine herb and it's associated with Apollo, Ceres, Eros and Faunus.
Dry Bay Leaves
Bay is a powerful, multipurpose herb. It's used for healing, protection, purification, strength and psychic powers. An herb that represents success, triumph and victory, bay was used to crown the victors in ancient Olympic games. Need to bring some success to your life? Add bay leaves to a hot bath or grind some leaves up and burn them. Sprinkle bay around your place of business to attract customers and leave a few bay leaves under or in the cash register for prosperity. For a money spell, dress(rub oil onto the candle) a green candle with bay oil.
Bay is also a great herb for protection. It will not only remove negative energies but it also draws in positive energies. Carry bay leaves to ward off negative energies and spirits. When hung in the home, bay will prevent poltergeists from entering and help remove anything negative already in the home. Plus, bay leaves smell great, look great and maintain their shape so hanging some in your home is a nice touch (especially during the holidays). Bay is also used in wisdom and psychic potions (keep in mind it has a strong taste). To induce prophetic dreams sleep with bay leaves under your bed or pillow. Bay was used by ancient priestesses of Apollo. They chewed the leaves to bring on a meditative and prophetic state. They also used bay as a Yule decoration and many people still practice this today.
Simple Bay Leaf Spell
Use a bay leaf to make a wish. First take a bay leaf and hold it in your hands. Think about your wish and envision it coming true. Then take the leaf and write your wish on it. Once you've written the wish on the bay leaf place the leaf under your pillow or bed. Leave it alone, forget it's there (except when you change your sheets! don't wash the leaf, remove it and then put it back) and allow your wish to manifest. You can also place the leaf on your altar or any place safe and out of the way. Once your wish has manifested bury the leaf.
Since bay is a dual purpose herb (it repels the negative and attracts the positive) you can also use it to remove something from your life. Take a bay leaf and hold it in your hands. Think about what it is you want to push away from you. Then write it on the bay leaf. Once you've written down what you want to get rid of burn the bay leaf and throw the ashes to the wind. Or, if you are near a source of water (a creek, lake etc), take the leaf to the water. Place it in the water and watch it float away while envisioning it taking away what you want to get rid of.
Will bay leaves kill me??
Absolutely not. It is used around the world to season foods. Everything from soups, meats, fish and spice mixtures are seasoned using bay leaves.
Interesting tidbit: If your eating a dish that contains bay leaves and you find yourself with a bay leaf in your mouth don't eat it right away! First, make a wish. Bite the leaf while simultaneously making your wish. Then put the wish out of your mind, allowing it to manifest.
Bay leaves. This powerful, multipurpose herb can be used to repel the negative and draw in the positive. Use a bay leaf to make a wish or add some taste to home made soup. Add bay leaves to a bath to give yourself a boost of successful energies. However you choose to use it, I highly recommend adding bay leaves to your own exploding herb cabinet.
Bright Blessings,

PhonoSDK WebRTC!
The W3C and the IETF are working to bring high quality, secure, realtime audio and video to the browser, with a standard called WebRTC. Voxeo Labs is helping to edit this standard.
Phono supports more than just WebRTC, so if a web browser doesn't have WebRTC built in, Phono will intelligently switch to using Flash, Java, or even native iOS and Android plugins.
Take a look at our blog for notes on how to develop with Phono, or download the SDK from the downloads area.
To get some ideas of what WebRTC can do for you, our engineers have some screencasts doing some interesting things with WebRTC.
But wait, there's more! We made history this week by placing the first public switched telephone network (PSTN) calls to and from real telephones and the Chrome Canary web browser! This video demonstrates a real phone call from an iPhone to our WebRTC-powered Phono Kitchen Sink demo.
But wait, there's even more! Just in case the previous two videos weren't geeky enough for you, we wanted to demonstrate a real Phono WebRTC phone call in the web browser without even involving a telco service provider! This test was achieved by using our portable wireless cell tower built on OpenBTS along with a standard Nokia mobile phone. Check this out:

I just started a new public listening test.
Addition: a specific web site for the test has been created: http://rarewares.hydrogenaudio.org/test/
The purpose is to find what encoder performs best encoding AAC at 128kbps
The encoders and parameters tested are:
Psytel AACenc 2.15 -br 128
Ahead/Nero 126.96.36.199 128kbps CBR, high quality
Sorenson Squeeze 3.5 (FhG Pro) 128kbps
Apple QuickTime 6.3 (Dolby) 128kbps high quality
FAAC 1.17b -a 64 (64kbps/channel)
--Who should take the test?
Anyone interested in AAC quality, or people that have no interest but would like to help making this test better.
You don't need excellent hearing, but some good gear is welcome (headphones are must-have).
--How do I take the test?
Download ABC/HR + the readme file here or here. If you already have ABC/HR, get the readme here.
Further instructions, and links to the sample packages, are inside the readme.
For people using BitTorrent: I strongly suggest you download using it.
The torrents are available here:
It would help me save bandwidth and you will probably download faster too
The average size of the sample packages is 4Mb. It sums to 47Mb, all the 12 packages.
Edit: For those that already downloaded packages, read here
--I'm on Linux/MacOS/something other than Windows. Can I take the test?
You can. But you won't be able to use the ABC/HR utility, that is Win32 only. Since the reference file must be hidden (That's the HR in the name), tests performed without it wouldn't be valid. So, I can't plot your scores against others. But your comments on sample quality and artifacts would still be welcome.
--When will the test finish?
The test is scheduled to end on June 15. This date may be extended if proved necessary.
If you have any other question, please post in this thread.
Thank-you very much,

QUOTE (SometimesWarrior @ Jun 4 2003 - 08:52 PM)
Any way to provide a random link generator (of the 13 .torrent's) so that all the samples get an equal number of tests?
Unfortunately, I think it's too late now to come with such solution. Hopefully, people will pick up samples randomly, and whenever possible pick them all.
BTW, there are 12 torrents.
Also, are these .torrent's the only way to download the files right now?
The links to download the .zip files form a server are inside the readme file.

|Length and Pressure of the Reconstructed Lower Esophageal Sphincter is Determined by Both Crural Closure and Nissen Fundoplication.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23188217 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is comprised of: a wrap thought responsible for the lower esophageal sphincter function and crural closure performed to prevent herniation. We hypothesized gastroesophageal junction competence effected by Nissen fundoplication results from closure of the crural diaphragm and creation of the fundoplication. METHODS: Patients with uncomplicated reflux undergoing Nissen fundoplication were prospectively enrolled. After hiatal dissection, patients were randomized to crural closure followed by fundoplication (group 1) or fundoplication followed by crural closure (group 2). Intra-operative high-resolution manometry collected sphincter pressure and length data after complete dissection and after each component repair. RESULTS: Eighteen patients were randomized. When compared to the completely dissected hiatus, the mean sphincter length increased 1.3 cm (p < 0.001), and mean sphincter pressure was increased by 13.7 mmHg (p < 0.001). Groups 1 and 2 had similar sphincter length and pressure changes. Crural closure and fundal wrap contribute equally to sphincter length, although crural closure appears to contribute more to sphincter pressure. CONCLUSION: The Nissen fundoplication restores the function of the gastroesophageal junction and thus the reflux barrier by means of two main components: the crural closure and the construction of a 360° fundal wrap. Each of these components is equally important in establishing both increased sphincter length and pressure.

The World Superbike riders are just about ready for their second race of the day. Carlos Checa took the first win with ease, but against a depreciated field. Max Biaggi, Jonathan Rea, Ruben Xaus, and Michel Fabrizio all crashed during the opening race.
Checa will have a target on his back during the second race, as the World Superbike grid will try to limit Checa's point take from Miller Motorsports Park.
(All About Bikes will have live updates from the race. Hit refresh to make sure you have the latest information.)
The umbrella girls are out. The photographers and journalists are on the track waiting for the World Superbike riders to take to the grid.
Racing should begin in just a few minutes.
The World Superbike riders are off on their sighting lap. The second World Superbike race from Miller will be starting soon.
The sun is out in Utah. The AMA races saw a very slight drizzle, but that doesn't seem to be an issue for the WSBK riders.
The World Superbike riders are back on the grid.
Biaggi has something to prove today. Biaggi took both wins in 2010 but did not finish the first race this weekend. Biaggi will be coming out with the vengeance during race 2.
And they're off!!!!
Checa jumps out to an early lead.
Checa really got a good jump. Checa has a second gap and the first lap isn't even over.
Checa – Camier – Laverty – Melandri – Haga – Biaggi – Rea – Corser – Guintoli – Sykes
Lap 2: Checa sets the pace with a 1'48.9 lap time.
Four riders are now lapping under 1'50. Checa, Camier, Laverty, and Biaggi all put in sub 1'50 laps.
Rider down!
Troy Corser and Noriyuki Haga go down. Both riders are up and ok.
Lap 3: Checa – Camier – Laverty – Biaggi – Melandri – Guintoli – Rea – Fabrizio – Sykes – Smrz
Laverty has extended the gap to 2 seconds with another festest lap. Checa drops his time down to 1'48.82.
Checa keeps extending the gap. Camier also has a good deal of space before third place rider Laverty. Laverty, on the other hand, is fending off Biaggi for third.
Biaggi hits 194 mph down the straight, and overtakes Laverty for third place.
Biaggi has two seconds to Camier, and 6 to race leader Carlos Checa.
Lap 7: Checa – Camier – Biaggi – Laverty – Melandri – Guintoli – Fabrizio – Rea – Sykes – Smrz
Checa is holding a comfortable lead up front. Checa has four and a half seconds ahead of Camier.
Checa is still hitting the gas. Adds another half second to his lead. Max Biaggi is closing in on Leon Camier.
Lap 9: Checa – Camier – Biaggi – Laverty – Melandri
The top four riders are pretty spaced out, but Meldnari, Guintoli, Fabrizio and Rea are really fighting over fifth place.
Checa has 5.5 seconds ahead of Camier. Camier has 1.8 seconds ahead of Biaggi.
Checa, Camier, Biaggi, and Fabrizio all lapping below 1'50. Biaggi still has the fastest bike on the track, consistently hitting 194 mph on the straight.
10 laps to go. Checa has 6.2 seconds ahead of the competition.
Lap 13: Checa – Camier – Biaggi – Laverty – Fabrizio – Melandri – Guintoli – Smrz – Rea – Sykes
Lap 14: Carlos Checa still holds a 6 second lead. Biaggi can't seem to find a way to catch Camier and still sits two seconds back.
Lap 16: The riders up front remain unchanged. Checa leads the way ahead of Camier, Biaggi, Laverty, and Fabrizio.
Rea, Badovini, and Sykes are riding wheel to wheel, with multiple passes throughout lap 17.
Lap 18: Checa extends his lead to 7 seconds. Biaggi is now three seconds behind Camier. It doesn't look like any one is going to be challenge for the podium.
The big battle in the race is for 8th place. Smrz, Badovini, and Rea are really going at it.
Sykes overtakes Rea for the last spot in the top 10.
Lap 19: Checa – Camier – Biaggi – Laverty – Fabrizio – Melandri – Guintoli – Smrz – Badovini – Sykes
Final lap.
Checa has nearly 8 seconds over Camier.
Checa pops the wheelie down the final stretch as he crosses the finish line for his second win of the weekend.
Checa wins!
Checa cruises to his second victory and his second double of the season.
World Superbike Race 2 results:
- Checa
- Camier

Rorschach's Journal. October 12th, 1985: Dog carcass in alley this morning, tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll whisper "no."
