I need to clarify this. These are Georgia fans making fun of Gators fans.
Most people that wear any sort of jersey to games are complete tools.
We just assume you are a jackass if you are wearing one.
I don't have any scientific evidence, but it is a 99.99% reliable assumption.
Making fun of? It's a historical reenactment.

You all have heard about a student having hard time in concentrating in class because he is attracted to his teacher but here in my physics class it was me who couldn't teach my student properly because I was attracted to one of my students.
And the attraction was not about his good lucks, or like he had a strong masculine body or I have heard about his cock size or something but it was just something about it that had always made me to look at him and with in minute I fancy him with me in my bedroom.
But he never showed any interest in me and I never showed my emotions towards him. But day by day the feeling inside me were growing and wanting him more and more.
First it was just like me closing my eyes, sitting in my chair at home and thinking about him and smiling and then it went farther and I started to get naked, lie down in my bed and just brush my fingers all over my body.
Then one day he came to me in the laboratory and it was just me and him, he was there to ask about the coming tests but I was having some dirty thoughts finding himself with me alone in the lab and then that day when I got back home I did more than just fantasizing him and feeling my body. I actually fingered myself thinking about him. I have never seen him nude or shirtless and it wasn't like I was attracted to his body but it was just him.
Now it's been more than a month since I started playing with myself in bed thinking about him and things were getting more complicated and hot. Having an affair with your student was a really bad idea and I didn't even know what he thinks about me.
Then one day I was at home and after the dinner I again started thinking about himself. His eyes the way he asks me questions in the class and his body language was making me hot and making me want him more. So I took off my night gown and also took off my bra too.
I lay down in my bed and my hands started feeling my breast. I have always felt proud on my 36C breast and always loved to play with them. So I started playing with them as soon as I started imagining him nude over me kissing me and licking on my neck my hands moved down to my stomach and then it slipped into my panties.
I was wet, the thoughts about him made me wet and feeling my pussy and touching my clit made me to play with myself. I took off my panties and dropped them on the floor next to my bed.
One finger went in and it felt good, good like always and I stoked it in and out before pushing one more finger in my pussy. Now I was fucking myself with my two long fingers and my other hand was busy in feeling my boobs.
My nipples were getting hard and I was biting my lips sometimes too. I stopped fingering but my other hand was still rubbing and pinching my nipples. My fingers were wet and covered in my pussy juices. I brought them to my lips and I licked them slowly. My eyes were still closed and I was tasting my own cum.
Then again my wet fingers brushed through my lips to my neck, to my boobs and then all the way down to my pussy. I caressed my inner things and then touched my clit again.
Now I wanted to cum and have my orgasm to get relax and have a nice sleep so I pulled out my nightstand drawer and grabbed my dildo. It was an average sized blue dildo and I spread my legs.
I teased myself with it a little and then pushed it deep in my pussy. That felt really good and I couldn't tease myself anymore. I started fucking myself and with that I started to moan. I fucked myself till I had my orgasm but I haven't squirted and I wanted to squirt. So I licked my dildo and pushed it again in my so wet pussy.
I fucked myself again and this times I was squeezing my boobs hard. I was feeling it and I knew that I was going to squirt so I started fucking faster and then I pulled out my dildo and I squirted on the floor.
I was still lying on my back, my dildo was still in my hand and I was breathing heavy. My eyes were closed and the pictures of him started to fade. When I felt relaxed I stood up and went to the washroom to clean myself and clean the dildo too.
I came back in my room all nude and I sat on my chair. I was relaxed but the desire to have him with me in real was still there and putting the dildo back in the drawer I lay down in my bed thinking what should I do to get him in my bedroom.
[ please comment/like if you would like to know what happened next and how I fulfilled my desire ]

Microsoft hiring hardware designer for possible Zune HD 2
updated 01:10 am EDT, Sun September 12, 2010
Microsoft wants hardware engineer for Zune HD 2
A Microsoft job listing discovered today suggests that the company may be committing to the design of a Zune HD sequel. The Senior Mechanical Engineer is ostensibly under the phone division but would be working with the Portable Entertainment Group to build "cutting edge mobile devices." Few clues exist as to the nature of the hardware, but the team is the same that made the original Zune HD.
The company has been silent on the prospect of a Zune hardware refresh this year and is rumored to be developing one last model of the dedicated MP3 player before it merges completely into Windows Phone and other platforms. It may use some or all of Windows Phone 7's elements and would be closer to an iPod touch as a general-purpose device. If it uses a complete form of WP7, it may address a lack of app support that has been a common criticism of the Zune HD and put it closer on par.
Other possible candidates include a Microsoft-influenced smartphone design or even a portable Xbox, though neither is considered likely. The company has publicly remained wedded to its concept of licensing its mobile OS to others rather than building its own, and no leaks have emerged of a gaming system. [via WMPowerUser]

Sony Vaio P Hands-on and Live from the Sony Building!
Here are 59 pictures of Sony's latest bombshell, their first high-end Netbook.
Specs :
Vista Home Premium
Atom Z520 @ 1.33GHz or with a Z530 (1.6GHz) / Z540 (1.86GHz)
2GB of RAM
60GB of HDD or up to 128GB of SSD
8" UWXGA Screen with a stunning 1600×768 resolution
WiFi B/G/N
a 1.3Mpix Camera Module
WAN and GPS (in Option)
for just 639g and 245 x 19.8 x 120 mm
Our first impression is pretty good, as usual the overall design is stunning, well built, and the keyboard is fully useable. We felt a solid Netbook in our hands, but we had a hard time with the stick which seems to have a mind of its own…
Performance wise we had some trouble watching Dailymotion HD Video, however, Sony's staff took on this problem and showed us a nice Full HD trailer running smoothly on the Vaio P with Windows Media Player (they had to close all open software). As for boot time… not up to expectations, Vista is still a resource hog and installing 7 on this beast may be the best thing to do.
Give us a little more time to release our video of this shiny new Vaio P… Meanwhile if you are interested in this device, you can pre-order it online here

Can I be pregnant as i had sex on the day I ovulation? Plz helpposted 11/07/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
I think your chances of having a girl are pretty good. I've heard that if you have sex on the day of ovulation and the child is conceived on that day, it'll most likely be a boy. I've heard that sperm with XX chromosomes live longer, and if you have sex a day or two before ovulation, you're likely to have a girl because the sperm with XY dies quicker. I'm in the same boat - keeping my fingers crossed for a girl. I already have an adopted boy, and I really want a little girl!! We've been ttc for 2 months already after surgery, Lupron, and hormone therapy. Wish us luck!posted 11/07/2012 by EllaNatalie

Is there any place in your plant which is not suitable for a person to stay there to monitor important process? If yes, then dealing with this problem will not be tough to you. Go through the article and you'll find the option that is within your reach. Are you familiar with the use of close circuit cameras, particularly which are used in the industrial houses? These types of cameras are playing exciting roles and easing a tough task greatly. Therefore, you can employ a close circuit camera where the environment is not proper for a human being within your industrial house premises.
There are some places of a plant where intensive monitoring is required. This is tough task for an individual to concentrate on the same for long hours, staying there. In addition, the expert persons may require monitoring the process from the central room. Therefore, you can find a single answer in this concern which is a solution of all the barriers and that is cctv camera. Once you install the same electronic equipment in your industrial house, more than single problem will be vanished. Like, you wouldn't require employing a person, especially for the same purpose and another person to bring information from there to the expert persons. Therefore, taking a single measure you can deal with several problems very effectively.
Distance sometimes regards as barrier. Overcoming distance-barrier one can take help of technology. In industrial plants, a manager wants to take professional service from human resources as well as from the machineries they install. The use of camera is an age old tradition. Though, cameras were not a part of industrial process. Nowadays, you can observe cameras of different type are used in industrial houses also. Why this change occurred? The companies have found the cctv cameras suitable to fulfill their purpose. It performs hard tasks for an individual easily. Therefore, you can understand, why people are feeling concern to the same innovation and why are they are eagerly using the same in their industrial plants.
The main objective of an Industrial plant is to make profit. If anything eases the same then the industrial persons want to employ the same. As the close circuit cameras are enhancing the capacity of an expert person in terms of monitoring a process, in terms of saving time etc. Thus, through these ways, they are getting so many advantages with this technological derivation. The management persons have found this camera very useful and consulting with the experts they are employing the same at various places of a plant. There are some special places like, the main gate, the processing unit of the plant and some other places are found most suitable place employing a camera, which records everything within the same uninterruptedly and displays at monitors located at another place of the industrial house.
Recording a process continuously, overcoming distance barrier the cctv cameras are most helpful. The industrial houses those have used cctv camera, found it incomparable with anything.

Water is heavy, so I never carry more than two quarts for one-day ascents. I drink a lot in the a.m. and expect to be dehydrated by day's end.
I'm a strong believer in taking frequent breaks. To make sure I rest enough, I stop every hour to have a Gu and some water.
I've had AMS at least a dozen times, and I've learned the hard way that there's nothing to do but take your time getting to the top.
Game Plan
Getting in the right shape takes a lot of time. Start cardio--biking, running, whatever you'll stick to--at least six months in advance.
Ten months out, I do 20 hours a week of long, slow distances biking, ski touring and running. Four months prior, I add a loaded pack to runs.
Getting AMS once doesn't mean you can't ever handle that altitude. I've gotten sick at elevation one day, then been fine higher up a month later.
After a long day of climbing, simple is best. Carry something easy to prepare, nutritious and light. I'm big on dehydrated mashed potatoes.
Laphroaig 10 Year Old scotch. Plus, spare toilet paper to clean cookware--nothing's more nauseating than lasagna in your morning tea.
If you're shooting high, start small. Notch a few of these classic one-day ascents and you'll be scaling the big boys in no time.
LONGS PEAK Colorado (14,255 feet)
An hour from Denver, Longs may be accessible, but it's no cakewalk. The eight-mile, nontechnical Keyhole Route climbs nearly 5,000 vertical feet over boulder fields and class 3 rock faces.
MOUNT RAINIER Washington (14,411 feet)
With alpine meadows leading to its glaciated volcanic peak, Rainier ranks among the country's premier training grounds for first-time mountaineers. Try the Disappointment Cleaver route.
MOUNT WHITNEY California (14,494 feet)
The main ascension trail, an 11-mile, 6,100-vertical-foot tromp, is strenuous but requires no specialized skills or equipment. Views from the top make up for the crowds.
PICO DE ORIZABA Mexico (18,855 feet)
Some 125 miles east of the capital, Mexico's highest summit requires glacier-traverse skills. The payoff? Glimpses of the Gulf and two nearby volcanoes.
Check out this photo blog of a climb up 14,088-foot Mount Russell in California.

Denver (AP)- Douglas County deputies arrested three students
Thursday who allegedly had marijuana laced with heroin. Sheriff's Lieutenant Alan Stanton says it's the second time in
three days that marijuana seized from Monte Vista High School
students tested positive for heroin. Stanton says a citizen had reported seeing numerous students gathered in an open space area near the school. Deputies found eleven students when they arrived, but say only three had drugs. Stanton says drug dealers sometimes spike marijuana with harder drugs to boost sales. He says officers would likely recommend charges of possession of less than an ounce of marijuana against
the students, who were 14 and 15 years old. The school district says drug–sniffing dogs will be sent to all district high schools starting next month. The inspections will
include the school premises and parking lots.

Apple wins patents on digital whiteboard, AR technologies
updated 10:13 am EDT, Tue March 19, 2013
Whiteboard patent refers to Surface-like tables
Apple has won two new patents from the US Patent and Trademark Office, including one for what appears to be a form of digital whiteboard technology. Titled Collaboration system, the patent describes a mix of "large digital surfaces" and styluses, used to collaborate on projects. The styluses capture movements visually or through motion sensing, in some cases allowing people to write on paper, but have the data show up on a digital surface. A device like an iPhone could be used to bridge a pen to a server; in any case, the server would facilitate sharing collaborators' content, whether to a whiteboard or some other form of interactive display.
For styluses that can actually be used directly on a digital surface, the patent talks about dealing with occlusions in the form of a person's hand or shadows cast by the hand. Onscreen radial menus would therefore change based a person's handedness, orientation, and position on the surface. The menus could be activated via a stylus gesture or button.
The other patent covers a form augmented reality adapted to iOS devices, exploiting their cameras, Internet connections, and multi-touch screens. In a given example, holding a device over a circuitboard could be used to identify components like a processor and capacitors, and display a barcode. Overlays could take the form of text, images, or URLs; to perform recognition, a device could handle the information itself or fetch data online.
A unique element is that if recognition fails, Apple's system allows people to create their own annotations. People can also feed live view content over to another device, or turn on a splitscreen view, in which the live and CG content is split into separate windows. Apple uses the example of looking at a view of downtown San Francisco; the CG window could be a real-time 3D composite of the view, used to create directions and markers that could be sent to another person. The recipient might be able to pair the composite with their own camera view, and tap on the markers to launch communications apps. Alternately the whole of one person's splitscreen data could be fed to a second device, and vice versa, helping two people to find each other.

• Schneider Optics Announces Two New Dealers in Germany
• Schneider becomes exclusive U.S. distributor of Chrosziel
• Schneider introduces new Vari-ND filters
The SCHNEIDER lenses of the COMPONON series have been in wide use for many years as professional enlarging lenses of 35 mm and medium formats with linear magnifications between 2 and 20 times.
Their optical design adapted to the different negative sizes - six elements in four components - and the type of correction used guarantee high-contrast rendition and excellent reproduction of even the most minute negative detail.
Mechanically, the Schneider COMPONONS also match the latest state of the art with illuminated aperture scales, click stops as well as stop-less aperture adjustments and with preset aperture controls.
Disengaging the click stop system permits precise fine adjustment of the aperture when working with color analyzers and other meter systems. Once the lens is stopped down to the desired aperture, the preset control allows it to be reopened fully for cropping and/or refocusing, and then stopped down again to the working aperture shown on the luminous scale.

The final plea by a group hoping to halt the Guthrie Memorial Library restructuring plan did not inspire the Hanover Borough Council to make a motion Wednesday.
"You all have been elected to represent your constituency," said the group's spokesperson, Kathryn Sheppard Hoar. "In effect, you work for us. And we, the people, are asking you to make a motion tonight to do what you can to stop the execution of the lease on Oct. 1. Will any of you make that motion this evening?"
After a five-second silence, Hoar said the group had no other choice but to file for a court-ordered injunction.
"You left us no alternative but legal action," she said.
The group hopes a halt to a five-year lease agreement between the Borough of Hanover and Guthrie Gals, LLC that was executed early Friday afternoon.
The contract leases out approximately 6,000 square feet of the library, with access to the roof as needed for the creation of Galas at the Guthrie. The special event venue, which will be run by Megan and Tabitha McDonald, will be used for receptions, celebrations, galas, dances, community activities and other special events.
"Our attorney is going to contact Mr. (Jeremy) Frey tomorrow and they're going to have a conversation," Borough Council President John Gerken said. "That's where it stands as far as any decision. We love the library also, but you have to be in our position."
In a Sept. 16 letter addressed to Borough of Hanover Solicitor Jim Yingst, attorney Jeremy Frey requested the borough reconsider the plan because of language in the original deeds that reverts the property to the heirs of its original owners if not used as a library.
The deed states that the parcel of land the library stands on was given to the borough as a gift by Mr. and Mrs. H.E. Young in 1911. The deed explicitly states that the building is to be used only as a public library with no other use or purpose whatsoever.
Borough representatives have said the deed only applies to the portion of the library originally plotted in 1911.
Six others residents stood to address the council and an audience of more than 70 people Wednesday night. Matthew Nawn of Sprenkle Avenue read a letter from his 9-year-old son, also named Matthew, expressing his displeasure with the current children's library, which was recently relocated to the first floor in the Hormel Reading Room.
Others stated their frustration with a perceived lack of transparency and due process.
Karen Kalina of West Middle Street defended the borough's stance while posing some of her own questions back toward the group.
"The borough is trying to dig us out of a financial hole by downsizing the library," she said. "If there's a lawsuit, who's going to pay for the solicitor to defend the borough? The taxpayer of course."
Hoar was one of the final people to stand up. The owner of Sheppard Mansion revealed last week that she is the administrator of the Facebook page, "Save Hanover's Public Library," which had more than 1,300 likes Wednesday night.
Hoar said Wednesday night that she'd collected 576 online signatures and 50 more hard-copy signatures for a petition to restore the library to its previous condition.
Wednesday, Hoar reiterated that her intention was not to ward off competition for her Sheppard Mansion, a high-end inn, offering lodging and dining in addition to a venue for special events. The lawyer for Guthrie Gals' Megan McDonald, George Swartz of Mooney & Associates, wrote in an e-mail this weekend that McDonald intended to follow through with the lease.
"She views this document as a binding contract which she is legally bound to perform," he said. "While my client is disappointed that some members of the community are against her new business endeavor, she respects their opinions. She also appreciates the many within the group who have had the respect to keep their anger with the Borough/Library management separate from her businesses."
The McDonald's intentions are to develop a thriving business to fit a community need while assisting the library through a difficult financial situation, Swartz added.
Hoar said the group she represents has looked for other measures for funding the library, and has contacted York County Library to research the Pennsylvania Library code for alternative methods for managing the library.
"I'm disappointed with this betrayal of a public trust," Hoar said to the council. "We will not go away. We have the time, money and resolve to see this through to the end and provide you with viable alternatives moving forward."

How to Monitor Your Parent's Health from Afar
Long gone are the days when wearable emergency alert systems were the only defense seniors had to get help in case of an emergency.
Personal Emergency Response Systems
Personal emergency response systems were made popular by Life Alert and its famous "Help, I've fallen and can't get up" commercials, but they've become much more advanced over the years.
According to Gastfriend, personal emergency response systems have become much more mobile to meet the needs of seniors who are independent, but prone to falls.
"The devices are simpler and you can wear them almost like a watch," says Gastfriend. Indeed Life Alert, for an example, has an app that gets seniors help by pressing a button.

In the past, motion detection systems to monitor an aging person were cost prohibitive to many families with price tags around $1,000 to $2,000, according to David Glickman, COO of remote monitoring system maker Live!y.
Advances in technology have made monitoring devices more affordable. Live!y's device, which costs $149 and then $19.95 a month after the first two months, comes equipped with sensors that are placed throughout the senior's home on objects like a refrigerator or shower, and the activity signals are fed to a hardware hub that uses a cellular connection instead of Wi-Fi.
The sensors passively monitor their targets to learn their patterns, and if a person deviates from the normal pattern, for instance he or she stays in the bathroom for longer than usual, the device will alert the designated person.
The sensors can even be put on a pill box so the caregiver will know if the pill box hasn't been opened at the correct time or at all. "It doesn't tell you what dad is eating or drinking or what show he is watching," says Glickman. "It's all about the daily living patterns so you know your loved one is doing the things they normally do."
Video Monitoring Systems
Often referred to as "Grammy cams," placing a video camera or multiple cameras around a home can help caretakers monitor family members over the Internet wirelessly.
VueZone, a unit of NetGear, sells remote video monitoring systems that range in price from $99 to $229. According to Erich Volkert, senior director, product management, the cameras take less than 10 minutes to set up.
"The system is super easy to set up and doesn't require the customer to run wires," he says.
A free alternative, but one that will require an elderly person to understand technology, is using a video conferencing service over the Internet like Skype.
While wireless video can allow family members to feel secure about their elderly counterparts' safety, it does bring up privacy concerns, especially if the person being watched doesn't fully understand what's going on. "It's important to balance safety with privacy and independence," says Gastfriend. "It's always a delicate conversation to get your parents comfortable with technology."
At the end of the day, remote monitoring devices can provide family members peace of mind, but it can also give them a false sense of security, says Martin Rosen, co-founder of Health Advocate. For instance, if the technology relies on Wi-Fi, it's not always a guarantee that the Internet will work or that the power won't go out.
There can also be glitches in devices that send false information. With this in mind, Rosen suggests people use products from a reputable source that have been vetted from industry peers and have received accolades from trusted sources.
"Like anything else there are pluses and minuses," he says. "The last thing you want to happen is you think it's working and it's not."

Don't make plans that you may not be able to fulfill. Even if you have the best intentions to follow through with your ideas.
You are setting yourself up for frustration and defeat. A lot of my time spent grieving was a mix of pain, confusion and disappoint. I would get disappointed at myself for saying I was going to do something I inevitably never did. One example out of the thousands of scenarios I can remember is telling myself I am going to the gym tomorrow right before I binge eat. Now, two things are happening.
1} You know you will feel guilty about eating whatever it is you are about to eat so that's why you tell yourself to go to the gym.
2}You're trying to motivate yourself by using a negative action to accomplish a positive action. You justify your choice of binge eating now by the possibility of a false promise of the gym tomorrow. Even if, at the time you don't know it's a false promise.
Me, I would eat pizza for lunch and be disappointed at myself for eating unhealthy and I would tell myself the classic line "Andrew, you are going to the gym tomorrow after that meal!" Come time for the dinner bell to ring. I would crave a burger, fries and milk shake, crave it so bad I would get irritated if I couldn't have one. I would say, "You can eat this, you are already going to the gym tomorrow"
Sure there is that random time where you do actually do what you tell yourself you are going to. But I am not talking that small percentage of times when you do what you say. So I would binge eat, fatty, unhealthy food that in the end made me feel even worse mentally and physically. I was disappointed with myself, I had let myself down for caving into my cravings. But it was not the burger that was the root of my disappoint, it was the fact that I had power to convince myself I was a failure who didn't deserve to be happy. In my mind, I was a waste of life who had accomplished nothing.
Not going to the gym was not just about me gaining unnecessary weight. It was all my emotions swirling together about my past, my 'gloomy' future and how I am nothing but a disappointment. Maybe I would insult and degrade myself. I can assure you, insulting yourself does not motivate you to get up and seize the day.
At this stage of grieving and coping are this hamster on a wheel, you tell yourself, 'yesterday I messed up, I should have gone to the gym today. But tomorrow, tomorrow I start my new life' The only thing you are going to start tomorrow are feeling all these feelings and breaking down again.
I would suggest start going to the gym and making a daily choice about rewarding yourself once you have made a positive choice first. Don't indulge first only to worry about the aftermath. You know where that gets you. The road to living a happy lifestyle while coping with a loved one passing or sick is never-ending. Since it is never-ending, you will always keep learning. You can't stop and wait to feel happy, go out to find your own happy. It took me a long time to know I wasn't broken. I wasn't damaged good because I couldn't do anything, even get up to go to the gym.
The road to happiness is eternal…that doesn't mean you can't walk on it forever.
~Happy reading

|Chemokine CCL5/RANTES inhibition reduces myocardial reperfusion injury in atherosclerotic mice.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 19665464 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process
|Although beneficial for cardiomyocyte salvage and to limit myocardial damage and cardiac dysfunction, restoration of blood flow after prolonged ischemia exacerbates myocardial injuries. Several deleterious processes that contribute to cardiomyocyte death have been proposed, including massive release of reactive oxygen species, calcium overload and hypercontracture development or leukocyte infiltration within the damaged myocardium. Chemokines are known to enhance leukocyte diapedesis at inflammatory sites. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of chemokine CCL5/RANTES antagonism in an in vivo mouse model of ischemia and reperfusion. ApoE(-/-) mice were submitted to 30 min ischemia, by ligature of the left coronary artery, followed by 24 h reperfusion. Intraperitoneal injection of 10 mug of CCL5/RANTES antagonist [(44)AANA(47)]-RANTES, 5 min prior to reperfusion, reduced infarct size as well as Troponin I serum levels compared to PBS-treated mice. This beneficial effect of [(44)AANA(47)]-RANTES treatment was associated with reduced leukocyte infiltration into the reperfused myocardium, as well as decreased chemokines Ccl2/Mcp-1 and Ccl3/Mip-1alpha expression, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. However, mice deficient for the CCL5/RANTES receptor Ccr5 did not exhibit myocardium salvage in our model of ischemia-reperfusion. Furthermore, [(44)AANA(47)]-RANTES did not mediate cardioprotection in these ApoE(-/-) Ccr5(-/-) deficient mice, probably due to enhanced expression of compensatory chemokines. This study provides the first evidence that inhibition of CCL5/RANTES exerts cardioprotective effects during early myocardial reperfusion, through its anti-inflammatory properties. Our findings indicate that blocking chemokine receptor/ligand interactions might become a novel therapeutic strategy to reduce reperfusion injuries in patients during acute coronary syndromes.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ Kansas labor officials say the state's unemployment rate increased in February to a seasonally adjusted 4.9 percent, up from 4.8 percent in January. That's the third consecutive month the rate has been below 5 percent.
The Kansas Department of Labor announced Thursday that the state lost a seasonally adjusted 2,300 jobs in February, but had gained 12,200 private sector jobs since February 2013.
A labor economist says Kansas has seen growth in each of the last five months in the number of people employed in the state, creating a positive outlook for future economic growth. As a result, the labor force has grown over the last three months as individuals look for potential employment opportunities.

The four universities use their influence for community building and keeping their fan bases buzzing.
Making the NCAA Final Four in college basketball is a big deal. We're talking a big, huge deal; both for the teams and their fans, as well as for the influence of those universities. The evidence is in the Klout Score—the further each team advanced in the NCAA tournament, the more its influence grew. When each team qualified for the Final Four, their Scores spiked.
The University of Kansas, the University of Kentucky, the University of Louisville and the Ohio State University men's basketball teams advanced to the Final Four in New Orleans this past weekend. The social media buzz surrounding each team has flooded news feeds and the fan bases' thirst for more, more, MORE is unquenchable. Each school's social media manager has answered these demands by using their heightened levels of influence for showcasing exclusive content and community building.
These four teams are accustomed to social buzz, as they are some of the most historic programs in the NCAA. To see powerhouses like these have their Scores spike so sharply is eye-opening. Klout wanted to see how the teams were handling their rises in influence and if their social media strategies had changed.
Annie Werner runs Kansas basketball's social media. She said on non-game days the most successful content is pictures and videos of the players and coaches as opposed to user-generated content. The fans flock to this type of content and share it over and over again. In general, the best content, she said, is a final score Facebook update after a victory with a picture attached. Werner's crowning achievement has to be this picture of Kansas Head Coach Bill Self after Kansas' close win over Purdue in the NCAA third round.
Werner's focus this week has been to provide a buffet of original content to hold over the fans until Saturday's game.
Kentucky is absolutely no stranger to the Final Four, but still, when the team defeated Baylor in the Elite Eight its Klout score grew. Before the tournament started mid-March, Kentucky wanted to engage its users more and add followers and fans. A Final Four run does the work for you. They've added thousands of fans on Facebook, and the team's social media manager, Guy Ramsey, has been working full tilt to keep pace with the demand.
"The appetite is insatiable," he said. "I just try to get as much content as possible out there."
Luckily for him, he has unprecedented access to the team, and a behind-the-scenes picture generates buzz for the team like few other updates can. Also a major hit with fans: cutting down the nets.

Louisville's social media guru is Brian U'Sellis. He had a unique situation, which most schools would welcome with extremely open arms. On the same day his basketball team advanced to the Final Four and its social media networks lit fire, Louisville swimmer Carlos Almeida won the 200-yard breaststroke NCAA championship. He wanted to make sure Almeida got his proper due, which he did, but it gave rise to possibility of using the Final Four buzz to advertise for other Louisville events. Ultimately, like the other social media managers, U'Sellis didn't want to muddy this week's excitement with ads.
"It's easy to turn this into a business opportunity, but we use social media to keep the fans excited," U'Sellis said.
U'Sellis' knew fans wanted all the content they could possibly read, so he launched the #L1C4 campaign, which wound up helping increase the school's Klout Score. #L1C4 (Louisville First, Cards Forever) invited former players to tweet and share their thoughts about the current team's tournament run, and then to rile the fan base with more excitement. It, combined with the Final Four achievement, jumped Louisville's Klout Score 10 points overnight. Good luck trying to match that.
Ohio St. was direct about where they are channeling their higher influence: "One-hundred percent, it's got to be fun," said Pat Kindig.
Kindig said the last few days have been a whirlwind as he tries to give fans as much content as possible. He knows people love hearing great things about their team, so when a sports personality like Dick Vitale tweets he thinks Ohio St. will defeat Kansas on Saturday, Kindig will retweet that for the masses.
Here is my ESPN video I did about the teams that will battle in NOLA. #MarchMayhem at its best #dickievpickses.pn/dtPd49
Kindig tries to keep Buckeye fans informed, but he said there is nothing more boring than a static tweet about tickets. Yes that information is important, but it can be packaged better; say, with a picture of a player dunking, or fans going wild.
The evidence is clear, with Final Four success comes influence. How a school handles that influence might differ, but keeping the excitement high clearly keeps your Score high, too.

|Sustained cell polarity and virulence in the phytopathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis depends on an essential cyclin-dependent kinase from the Cdk5/Pho85 family.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17405809 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Cyclin-dependent kinases from the Cdk5/Pho85 family are thought to play important roles in morphogenesis in organisms as diverse as yeast and humans. Here we used the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis to address the role of Cdk5/Pho85 kinases in the morphogenesis and virulence of dimorphic phytopathogens. We found that Cdk5 is essential for growth in U. maydis. A temperature-sensitive cdk5 mutant caused cell wall and morphology defects at the restrictive temperature. Actin patches labeled with a fimbrin-GFP fusion protein were delocalized and a GFP-Myo5 fusion was directed towards the growing cell pole and rapidly dissociated from the tip. These defects were found to be due to an impairment in the maintenance of cell polarity. Our results indicated that Cdk5 is required for the activity of Rac1, probably at the level of the localization of its GEF, Cdc24. Cdk5 was required for full virulence, probably because mutant cells are unable to sustain the dramatic polar growth required for the formation of the infective structures. These results support a major role for morphogenesis in the virulence program of dimorphic fungi.

Is It Safe to Get a Tummy Tuck for an Asthmatic?
Is It Safe to Get a Tummy Tuck for an Asthmatic?
Doctor Answers 6
Asthma and Tummy Tuck.
Every case is different, but a well-controlled medical condition may not preclude a tummy tuck. You must be open in your communication with your surgeon, pulmonologists and anesthesiologist for the most optimal outcome.
Asthma and Tummy Tuck Surgery
Dear Veronica,
The important issue is if you could have the medical clearance to undergo full anesthesia.
I encourage you to consult with the physician managing your condition. If you are cleared for it, then undergoing surgery will not be an issue.
Seeking consolations with board certified plastic surgeons of ample experience in that field will help you make an informed decision.
Best of luck to you and please do disclose all your medical conditions with your surgeon as surprises during surgery would increase your risks.
Thank you for your inquiry.
Dr. Sajjadian
Web reference: http://www.DrSajjadian.com
Tummy Tuck for an Asthmatic
Asthma does increase risks with general anesthesia. Consult with your primary care physician or pulmonologist to determine if the severity of your astma would be appropriate or inappropriate for general anesthesia. If you primary care physician deeems you to be a candidate, consult with 3 - 4 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options.

Asthma? It is not so much that tummy tuck is the risk, as is the risk of undergoing anesthesia
It is not so much that tummy tuck is the risk, as is the risk of undergoing anesthesia. It depends on how severe you asthma is and the complexity of surgery. You should talk to your PCP and your plastic surgeon to see if you are a good candidate for general anesthesia and go from there. I hope this helps.
Asthmatic getting a Tummy Tuck
It really depends on how bad of an asthmatic you are. You need to discuss having this type of elective surgery with your Pulmonologist or General Practitioner (whoever manages your asthma). If they feel your condition is stable and well controlled then they will give you a medical clearance. You also want to make sure you have good after care post-operatively, in addition to having all of your asthma medications available for use.

T-Mobile leases 7,200 mobile sites to Crown Castle
updated 02:46 pm EDT, Fri September 28, 2012
Deal lasts 28 years, costs $2.4 billion
T-Mobile has signed an agreement with Crown Castle to lease 7,200 wireless towers. The carrier will hand the towers to Crown Castle for a period of 28 years, in exchange for a $2.4 billion rental fee. The proceeds of the deal will go some way towards paying off debts accumulated by T-Mobile's parent company, Deutsche Telekom.
After the weighted average term of 28 years, Crown Castle will have the option to purchase the towers for around $2.4 billion. Until that time, Crown Castle plans to allow another carrier to use its newly leased network of towers at the same time as T-Mobile, which has committed to maintain its own equipment on the towers for at least a decade.
After the transaction is completed, Crown Castle will remain as the largest wireless infrastructure operator in the US, with approxomately 30,000 towers in 50 markets. At present, T-Mobile's network consists of 51,000 cell sites, most of which are leased from third parties, such as Crown Castle. The practice of site renting is relatively common throughout the telecoms industry, due to the costs involved in maintaining a tower.
Despite the leasing of the towers, T-Mobile will continue to focus on its network modernization schemes, including its LTE launch in 2013.

The symptoms in the potatoes are dark rings, arcs, blotches, or areas of corky tissue, hence the name of the disease. Symptoms similar to those of CRS were observed in processed potato chips from three different bags purchased at three locations. Molecular tests (RT-PCR) confirmed the presence of the genomic material (RNA) of TRV in these chips. It is believed that this is the first report of the detection of plant virus RNA in a processed food product.
Technical Abstract: A portion of genomic RNA 1 of tobacco rattle tobravirus (TRV) was amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction from each of eight processed potato chips from three different bags purchased at three locations. The positive chips all had symptoms typical of corky ringspot disease, caused by TRV infection, and consisted of dark brown arcs and rings. Sequence analysis of the 463 bp amplicons confirmed that the products were indeed TRV in origin and were 97% identical to TRV sequences of isolates originating in Washington, Florida, and Wisconsin. Chip extracts were not infectious when mechanically inoculated onto tobacco leaves. To the authors' knowledge this is the first report of the detection of plant virus genomic RNA in a processed food product.

Summary of Basic Model Fields From the 2/28 00 UTC Runs
Models were in agreement that cyclogenesis would occur off the mid-Atlantic coast in association with a short wave tracking northeast, well to the east of the main upper-level trough.
There were significant differences in the model forecast surface low tracks and QPF, with the NAM much farther west, and heavier in our area.
Differences in the mid-troposphere included a sharper 500 mb short-wave with the NAM forecast, and the 700 mb closed low much farther southwest with the NAM forecast.

Work continues on the expansion of the Crouse Breast Health Center.
Scheduled to open in mid-September, the renovated and expanded center, located on the ground floor of the CNY Medical Center (across the street from Crouse Hospital), will be 600 square feet larger and will feature private consultation and changing rooms, two image reading suites and a bigger, more comfortable welcoming and private patient registration area.
"Physical surroundings and privacy are particularly important to women who find having a mammogram or receiving follow-up breast healthcare to be an uncomfortable or worrisome experience," says Stephen Montgomery, MD, medical director of breast health services at Crouse Hospital. "This major renovation addresses those issues and will provide a much more patient-friendly experience."
If you or someone you love has been the beneficiary of breast healthcare services at Crouse, please consider a gift in their honor or in thanks to a physician, nurse or other staff member. Just call the Crouse Health Foundation at 315/470-7702 or donate online.

GTL products
Shell's natural gas-to-liquids (GTL) technology makes it possible to use natural gas, rather than crude oil, as the raw material for a range of valuable liquid products. These include cleaner fuels for cars and planes, and materials that go into making chemicals and lubricants.
GTL facilities are complex plants, like a giant chemistry set, that will first combine, then break up and rearrange chains of atoms. Chains of different lengths have different properties, making a range of GTL products:
GTL Gasoil
GTL Gasoil is an alternative to diesel that is virtually free of sulphur and aromatics, producing fewer local emissions. It can be blended easily with conventional, oil-based diesel and used in the existing diesel distribution system.
Trials in heavily congested cities such as London, Berlin, Tokyo, Shanghai and Rotterdam have shown that buses, taxis and trucks running on high concentrations of GTL gasoil can contribute to improved local air quality. This is because GTL Gasoil burns with lower sulphur dioxide and fewer nitrogen oxides and particulate emissions than conventional oil-based diesel.
GTL Gasoil can also be used by refineries to upgrade heavier fuel products.
GTL Normal Paraffin
GTL Normal Paraffin (detergents) is an alternative premium feedstock for detergent production. Detergent manufacturing companies usually extract conventional normal paraffin from oil-based kerosene.
GTL Kerosene
First commercial passenger flight using a 50-50 blend of GTL and conventional jet fuel
GTL kerosene is an alternative to conventional oil-based kerosene. It can be used for heating and lighting, but its primary use is expected to be for aviation, contributing to the diversification of the aviation fuel supply.
GTL Kerosene burns with lower sulphur dioxide, lower nitrogen oxides and particulate emissions than conventional oil-based kerosene. At higher concentrations it could help improve air quality at busy airports.
GTL Base Oils
GTL Base oils can be used for the manufacture of lubricants that keep vehicle engines, gearboxes and transmissions operating smoothly.
GTL Naphtha (plastics)
GTL Naphtha is an alternative to high quality feedstock for chemical manufacturing that make the building blocks for plastics. It offers superior yields of ethylene/propylene and lower feedstock costs than conventional naphtha.
GTL Waxes
GTL waxes are virtually odourless, making them ideal for use in applications requiring the addition of colour or fragrances, such as printing inks, packaging, fiberboard, plastic processing, candles and coatings.

Joan's Legacy: Uniting Against Lung Cancer Strolling Supper Brings in $1.3 Million for Lung Cancer Research
The Foundation's Signature Fall Gala Hosted by Brian Williams Celebrates Ten Years of Dedication to Finding a Cure
(New York, NY – November 19, 2012) – Joan's Legacy: Uniting Against Lung Cancer reports $1.3 million raised at its annual gala to benefit lung cancer research, the "Strolling Supper with Blues and News." Held at Gotham Hall on Wednesday, November 14, 2012, the Strolling Supper celebrated its tenth anniversary and was attended by 700 guests who joined to support the foundation and the many important strides it has made in the name of lung cancer research throughout the years.
The Strolling Supper is the largest event marking Lung Cancer Awareness month in New York, shining a spotlight on the need for research to combat the nation's most deadly cancer. Within the past ten years, the Strolling Supper has helped Uniting Against Lung Cancer fund more than $10 million in research grants at 49 different institutions across the United States -- $1 million in 2012 alone.
"When we started Uniting Against Lung Cancer we wanted to make connections with cutting-edge doctors in the field of lung cancer, providing them with the funds to find a cure and create awareness for the nation's most deadly cancer," said Mary Ann Tighe, CEO of CBRE's Tri-State Region and the President of the foundation. "As we celebrate the tenth year, we look back with pride at all we have contributed to the advancement of lung cancer research in the country, and anticipate all the great things to come."
Special moments throughout the evening included an energetic performance by Grammy award winning blues musician Delbert McClinton, a rich silent auction complete with luxury items and once-in-a-lifetime experiences up for bid, a kickoff from the Cardinal Spellman marching band, and delectable food and cocktails.
Celebrating the event's 10th Anniversary, Uniting Against Lung Cancer honored its Medical Committee – comprised of 10 of the nation's leading lung cancer researchers and clinicians – for their contributions to advancement in the field of lung cancer and their role in guiding the foundation's Scientific Program. In addition, the foundation recognized its board member Dr. David Hidalgo, the founding chair of the Medical Committee and driving force behind its formation and success.
The honorees and Medical Committee members are: David P. Carbone, MD, PhD, of Ohio State University; Steven M. Dubinett, MD, of the University of California, Los Angeles; Eric B. Haura, MD, of H. Lee Moffit Cancer Center & Research Institute; John V. Heymach, MD, PhD, of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center; Mark G. Kris, MD of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center; Matthew L. Meyerson, MD, PhD, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; William Pao, MD, PhD, of Vanderbilt University; Katherine M. Pisters, MD, of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center; Charles M. Rudin, MD, PhD, of Johns Hopkins University; and Kwok-Kin Wong, MD, PhD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
NBC's Brian Williams, host of the event, honored his late friend Joan Scarangello, a talented news writer for whom the foundation was founded. Joan, a never-smoker, lost her battle with lung cancer at the age of 47 in 2001. Williams presented the foundation's Caine Halter Hope Now Award, an annual award recognizing the efforts of research labs developing novel treatment options for lung cancer patients and survivors.
This year's recipient, Dr. Paul Bunn, is the James Dudley endowed Professor of Lung Cancer Research at the University of Colorado. Dr. Bunn is recognized for his unwavering commitment to advancing lung cancer research and the care of persons with the illness. Dr. Bunn has made innumerable contributions to advancing care for lung cancer patients throughout his career, most notably developing novel therapies.
"Tonight was our most successful Strolling Supper to date. Thank you to all of our supporters, medical staff, and partners who have helped us get to this point." added Uniting Against Lung Cancer Executive Director Linda Wenger. "The strong momentum gained tonight will help us continue to make a positive impact towards a cure for lung cancer."
WABC-TV's Bill Ritter served as the event's emcee. He remembered his mother, whom he lost to lung cancer. Ritter has dedicated himself to raising the profile of lung cancer and the need for research.
Uniting Against Lung Cancer, a 501 (c)(3) organization headquartered in New York was founded in 2001 in memory of Joan Scarangello, a never-smoker who lost her battle with lung cancer at age 47. Uniting Against Lung Cancer is dedicated to finding a cure for lung cancer by providing funding for innovative research, and to raising awareness of the nation's deadliest cancer.

The Magazine
Father of the A-bomb
What have we learned about J. Robert Oppenheimer?
Jun 6, 2005, Vol. 10, No. 36 • By HARVEY KLEHR
The Chevalier incident became one of the most damaging pieces of evidence when Oppenheimer lost his security clearance. To Bird and Sherwin, it is a tempest in a teapot. Indeed, they brush off all the evidence that the Soviet Union had mounted an intensive, multifaceted effort to penetrate the Manhattan Project. Not only do they pooh-pooh the idea that Joe Weinberg was a spy, they dismiss Eltenton--who admitted to the FBI that, after a talk with a Soviet official, he asked Chevalier to approach Oppenheimer--as "more likely a misguided idealist than a serious Soviet agent." And they accept Nelson's word on the nature of his contacts with Oppenheimer and other scientists, even though he consistently lied about not being involved in espionage. (Incredibly, they note that "the evidence of spying" against Weinberg, which was inadmissible in court because it was based on an illegal wiretap, was ambiguous.)
In short, they fail to understand that there was a genuine threat of Soviet espionage, and that Oppenheimer's own choices and behavior could have led serious people to conclude that he was a security risk.
Bird and Sherwin are properly indignant about the shabby treatment the Atomic Energy Commission afforded Oppenheimer when its chairman, Lewis Strauss, set out to humiliate and destroy his longtime adversary. Oppenheimer had resisted American development of a hydrogen, or super, bomb, supported international controls on atomic energy, and favored greater openness and cooperation with the Soviet Union to prevent further development of atomic weapons. Whatever the merits of the particular policies he favored, there was no evidence they were motivated by any lingering sympathy for communism; Oppenheimer had become a liberal anti-Communist. He had, however, been deeply affected by the destruction wrought by the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs. At one disastrous meeting with President Truman in October 1945, Oppenheimer blurted out "I feel I have blood on my hands," prompting the president to tell Dean Acheson that he didn't "ever want to see that son-of-a-bitch in this office ever again."
By 1953, Oppenheimer's role on the AEC was much diminished, but Strauss, who had suffered a variety of insults and public humiliations from the arrogant Oppenheimer in the past, was determined to extract his revenge. He encouraged the filing of a complaint challenging Oppenheimer's loyalty, wiretapped his conversations with his lawyers, stacked the hearing, refused Oppenheimer's lawyers a security clearance enabling them to read FBI files to which the "prosecutors" had access, and was rewarded when the hearing board found Oppenheimer was not disloyal but was a security risk. His clearance was rescinded a day before it would have expired.
Turning policy disputes into tests of loyalty is fraught with danger. Unfortunately for Oppenheimer, his associations during the 1930s, and postwar revelations about the extent of Soviet espionage, made the suspicions about him more than paranoia. When his own admitted lies about the Chevalier affair were added to convincing evidence that he had been a member of the Communist party, he was doomed. That some of those who brought him down were unattractive men with sordid motives does not erase the fact that a hugely talented man who had made major contributions to American security was destroyed because of a series of disastrous political choices he had once made, and then tried to obscure.

Jennifer Slegg | April 11, 2014 | Comments
In an effort to tidy up users' News Feeds, Facebook is targeting brand Pages that explicitly ask for likes, shares, and comments to promote their posts.
When brands post to Facebook, it's very common, and almost expected at this point, for them to ask for likes, shares, and comments to promote their products. This is a well-known practice, and it's been going on for years. But the social media giant is planning to crack down on these calls to action, calling the practice "like-baiting." Now, if a business or website asks for likes, shares, or comments, it will be much less likely that Facebook will show the post in users' News Feeds.
Facebook has been severely limiting exposure for businesses that are trying to reach out to their customer base through Facebook organically. Asking for likes, shares, and comments meant that those organic posts or images that businesses were sharing could potentially reach a larger audience without the company having to pay for it. After all, whenever someone shares something it can show up on a Facebook page and in the News Feeds of friends. But while Facebook says it is responding to user requests, the fact is that now if businesses want exposure on the social network, they are going to have to pay for it.
According to Facebook, users report that like-baiting stories are on average 15 percent less relevant than other stories that have a similar number of likes, comments, and shares. So the social network is cracking down on the practice because it feels it leads to a less enjoyable user experience, as it edges out content people do care about.
Facebook does say that their goal is not to impact pages that are "genuinely trying to encourage discussion among their fans," but rather to focus on Pages that frequently post explicitly asking for likes, comments, and shares.
The company is also looking at reducing the amount of recirculated content that's visible on the News Feed. It's not that uncommon for some viral content to go viral again every few months, and Facebook finds that this repeated visibility is less relevant to the users and users are more likely to complain about it. Additionally, some Pages share the same content over and over again, such as sharing the same news story for their business or the same event information. In their testing, Facebook found that reducing this frequently recirculated content causes users to hide 10 percent fewer stories from Pages overall.
Facebook is also adding tools to catch spammy links that are being shared through the site. Often, posts use inaccurate language or formatting in order to confuse users into clicking a link. However, how Facebook is planning to flag these links could end up labeling great content as being spammy simply because it's not being shared or liked often. So to prevent this from happening, it's likely that businesses will encourage users to share and like their posts, despite Facebook changing their algorithm to catch exactly this behavior.
All in all, Facebook is clearly trying to reduce the footprint of businesses in Pages even further, to encourage those businesses to advertise to get the reach they need.
So what should business marketers do in Pages do in order to not get caught up in the new changes?
Don't Ask for Likes, Comments, or Shares
Unfortunately this is currently a habit for a lot of businesses, but doing so will reduce that content's exposure significantly. However, expect to see companies searching for new, creative ways to encourage likes and shares without explicitly asking for them.
Don't Repeatedly Share the Same Content
This can be hard for marketers or businesses trying to promote an event. It may require them to create new content, even if they want to promote the same thing, so that it won't be seen as sharing the same content over and over.
Don't Use Misleading Links
Ensure links go to exactly the content that marketers and businesses are saying they will. Facebook specifically cites Pages that are sending users to a page full of ads instead of a photo gallery, for instance. So make sure links are not spamming and are accurate.

Canada 3. USA 2.
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
I watched the game with friends from all over this fantastic country. All of our Olympians competed valiantly and it doesn't matter what who won/lost in the end. When all eyes were on them the Canadian Men's Hockey Team showed how awesome Canadians can be when they work hard, are willing to make sacrifices and put up a united front. When the game ended we cheered and when the Medals were awarded we all stood up and sang 'O Canada' together.
Canada has an awesome hockey team and dominated this Olympics. Now we need a government that is good enough to represent this fantastic land!
