Two men who allegedly attempted to enter another man's home on Sunday night were arrested and charged with home invasion as a first-degree felony.
A Tamuning resident said he believed Umino Chuweinuk and Umy Chuweinuk were trying to beat him up so they could enter his apartment and steal from him, according to the magistrate's complaint.
Documents state the man heard loud banging on the door of his apartment. When he opened the door, he said Umino Chuweinuk stepped from behind the door and attempted to punch him with Umy Chuweinuk appearing after and also attempting to punch ...

Fatland Ølen slaughters cattle, pig and sheep/lamb. The plant has a cutting section mainly for pig and sheep/lamb. The plant has also a production department where all the minced meet products are produced. As well as bacon, meat cake products, schnitzel, consumer packed meat and pet food.
Fatland Ølen was built in 1974 and has since been expanded and modernized several times. After Fatland Bergen was shut down in the beginning of 2001, the quantity of slaughter in Ølen has increased, and the slaughterhouse now picks up slaughter from Hjelmeland in the south, Karmøy in the west, Telemark in the east and Sognefjorden in the north.
In the last years, the Fatland Ølen plant has been expanded with the building of a new Distribution Hub for the Group where we dispatch on daily basis products to 700 shops. The processing area has also been expanded and new machinery for production and packing acquired.

By C. Trent Rosecrans
Aramis Ramirez is still a Cub and he wants to keep it that way.
Ramirez's agent, Paul Kinzer, told the Chicago Tribune that his client doesn't want to be traded and is unlikely to OK a trade if the team asked. Ramirez has a full no-trade clause and is also a 10-and-5 player, meaning he must OK any trade because of his 10 years of Major League service time, inclujding the last five with the same team.
"He doesn't event want to take a trade. He took less years and less money to stay in Chicago [in 2006], so that is definitely his first option," Kinzer told the paper.
Ramirez makes $14.6 million this season and the Cubs have a club option for 2012 worth $15 million, one they'll no doubt decline and pay a $2 million buyout.
Ramirez is hitting a solid .288 with a .343 on-base percentage, but his slugging is down to just .394 with two homers in 216 plate appearances. Ramirez has a career slugging percentage of .495, but it has dipped each of the last seven seasons since he slugged a career-best .578 in 2004. Since then his slugging has decreased, sometimes gradually (.568 in 2005) and sometimes drastically, from .516 in in 2009 to .452 last season.
As I was watching the Cubs-Reds for a bit last night, they flashed some of Ramirez's career stats -- in his 14th season -- and ninth in Chicago, Ramirez has accumulated 291 home runs and 1,050 RBIs, all the while hitting .282/.340/.495. Even playing for the Cubs, I'm not so sure Ramirez has ever gotten his due for just how good of a player he's been over the years. He has earned just two All-Star nods.
Perhaps he has been overlooked among National League third basemen because he played in the time of Chipper Jones and Scott Rolen, as well as during the rise of David Wright and Ryan Zimmerman,
Ramirez will turn 33 later this month and his power seems to be diminishing. Also, he has been at best an average defender. There's no way he makes $15 million next season and it appears his career is on its downside. Desppite that, there are teams that could use him for even his current skills. That said, it's unlikely to be the Cubs, unless he likes the team so much he'll take a huge paycut to stay in Wrigley.
By the way, Kinzer is also the agent for Geovany Soto, Starlin Castro and John Grabow. Kinzer told the Tribune he doesn't expect the Cubs to jettison Soto or Castro (duh), but it's possible Grabow could be on the market when the trade market begins to heat up.

The Webster village election is shaping up as a referendum on the future of the village water supply.
Three residents who have been persistent critics of the current administration's decision to maintain its own water department have filed petitions for the March 19 election and hope to form a majority coalition on the five-person village board.
John Cahill, Darrell Byerts and Gerald Ippolito Jr. are running as the Open party, with Cahill challenging incumbent mayor Peter Elder. Village trustees David Kildal and Christine Reynolds are also seeking re-election against the challengers. ...

This Iris species is useful for shade, including dry heavy shade under trees, thriving where few other plants survive. Seedpods split open in autumn to reveal rows of orange-red seeds that remain well into winter. For the rest of the time, the architectural evergreen foliage looks superb teamed with other shade lovers such as Euphorbia amygdaloides var. robbiae and, under deciduous trees, dwarf spring flowering bulbs. The species is less remarkable than some of its forms, especially var. citrina and 'Variegata'. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit (AGM).

This Iris is nothing but a weed. Its flowers are grey and the foliage is uninteresting.Dig it up and bin it.
This beautiful iris has delicate flowers, huge bright green pods and the most fantastic, startling orange-red berries that persist long after other plants have been and gone. It can cope with being under trees, even in relatively dry shade, and has been a blessing in my garden! I'm so pleased to have finally identified it - so if you are planning on digging it up, try offering it free to other people who need shade plants rather than binning it, as the previous commenter suggests :)
A brilliant plant for problem areas. It is evergreen and the flowers are lovely, understated, but lovely. The split seed pods with their bright orange-red seeds are beautiful in winter. It can cope with just about anything - shade, drought, sun. Seedlings are easily identified and can be transplanted easily.
Love this native iris. The strap-like leaves provide evergreen structure all through the Winter. The bright orange berries give a zing to the drabness when nothing else is in colour. It's a tough as old boots, easily dividable, but never invasive.

Cited Reference Searching in Web of Science
Web of Science indexes over 5,300 of the leading science journals across 164 scientific disciplines within engineering, physical, and life sciences, and provides searching of cited references from 1900 to the present. It also includes the Arts & Humanities Citation Index and the Social Sciences Citation Index.
Cited Reference Search: Entering a Search
If you want to find out what articles have cited a particular work, choose Cited Reference Search from the main search page, located in the drop-down menu next to Basic Search.
Search Tips
Use variations or truncate the name of the cited author after the first initial. You may also look up author names using the cited author search aid (denoted by a magnifying glass icon).
Truncate the terms in the cited work field in order to match different forms of an abbreviated journal name or book title. Truncate the cited work abbreviation even if selected from the Journal Abbreviation List.
References that are not linked in your look-up table are those that are to items not indexed by ISI (books, etc.), articles outside UC Berkeley's subscription limits, or cited reference variations.
An example of a cited reference search for this article follows:
K. Anand, J. Ziebuhr, P. Wadhwani, J.R. Mesters, R. Hilgenfeld. "Coronavirus main proteinase (3CL(pro)) structure: Basis for design of anti-SARS drugs." SCIENCE, 300 (5626): 1763-1767, Jun. 13, 2003.
To find articles that have cited this article, enter the following search terms:
Cited Author = anand k*
Cited Work = science*
Cited Reference Search: Lookup Page
The table below shows all of the citations to K. Anand's papers published in the journal Science.
If searching for a specific cited reference, locate it by matching its Volume, Page and Year with the original article's bibliographic information. Notice that this paper has been cited several different ways. Citation variants are often due to a paper's volume, page, and year being cited incorrectly by an author.
Select the appropriate cited reference listing, as well as variants (if present), by clicking in the check box to the left of the reference.
Click Finish Search to get a total count of the citations to this article in Web of Science.
Click Show Expanded Titles to change the cited reference view to display the article titles for linked references.
Depending on your chosen display option, click either the article title or the View Record link to move to the full record.
Eliminating Self-Citations
To eliminate an author's self-citations from your results, first go to Cited Reference Search to run a cited author search. Select all references that pertain to your specific author and click Finish Search to create a set. Next, go to General Search to perform an author search. Finally, go to Advanced Search and combine the two search sets with the NOT Boolean operator.
Example: (results of the cited reference search) NOT (results of the author search)

Hey Bradley,Re:"Don't sell real science short! It's not only your opinion. It's truth and fact."Many would disagree:-)This discussion reminds me of something, I have two friends who are close.One comes from a family where the primary food source is seal meat. They eat very little in the way of vegetable food.The other friend comes from a strict vegetarian background and eats very little in the way of animal products.Both are very fit and both are international champion athletes and compete against each other from time to time.Which one eats the healthiest diet?
"Which one eats the healthiest diet?"The more interesting question to me is: what would happen if they traded diets? I bet it would involve flatulence!
Haha, good one...
Saw this recipe from an olympic swim coach years ago, don't recall who:-1 serving of steel rolled oats-1 serving whey/casein protein (agree with others, stay away from soy, we all probably get too much in processed foods already)-handful of dried fruit (I like cranberries, raisins, and blueberries myself)-tablespoon of brown sugar-half tablespoon of butter or olive oil-handful of almondsAbout 20 minutes after consumption, you'll feel like you're ready for the olympics :)
I take Fitness Labs NutriFit powder in a baggy. Mix with water for a high quality meal supplement. 2 scoops with 16oz water provides 40g of Protein along with a myriad of other nutrients. Many other brands out there.
Kier,That's almost identical to an oatmeal recipe I just came up with and put up on my blog recently. Oatmeal, protein powder, fruit, etc. I had flax meal in it instead of nuts, and cinnamon. Guess I'm ready for the Olympics too!
I will have to try that combination, thanks for posting it.I am a believer when it comes to oatmeal; I read years ago that it is one of the foods that crosses over to "medicine", partly due to the mucilage. Steel cut oats and dried fruit, with a bit of olive oil, is what I eat for breakfast five days a week.
I have been consuming 120+ grams of protein per day for more than 30 years. This has been in various forms but for the past 15 years or so it has been bars and powder. I have a powdered shake for breakfast and two bars during the day with a meat source as part of dinner.I have been most happy with the Premier bars at 2.5 oz, 280 cal, and 30 grams of whey. Costco is the best source at $19 for a box of 24. I eat two a day at home and on the trail and will surpass the 10k mark this year. Another bar I like are the Zone bars with 15 grams, 175-210 cals and 1.75oz. These are soy and whey and more palatable. I have taken powder with me but prefer the simplicity of the bars.
Great tip - I hadn't seen those Premier bars before! Will have to try some...
Peanut Butter Play DoughPeanut ButterPowdered MilkHoneyMix to desired taste. Powdered milk is a bit gritty right after mixing but it smoothes out after an hour or so. Ideal consistency is not sticky, mouldable. Shape into people, animals, battle scenes, etc. Then eat. I prefer to bite the heads off first, my son likes to start with legs.Our son is often very finicky but if he's hungry he will scarf this down. I had presumed that it was very high in protein, but doing a little figuring I find it's only about 20% protein.Using estimated proportions by mass= 5 Peanut Butter: 3 Powdered Milk: 2 Honey I get 140 calories/ounce with 20% protein, 50% fat, 30% carbs.
Peanut Butter Play Dough = Kool food.Sounds like a good dense source of most anything an active hiker would need.The powder milk combined with peanut butter has all the amino acids.20% protein is a good amount of protein.Kick it up a notch and use Nido(or Klim) instead of non-fat powder milk.
Love that Nido! Sounds like a great recipe, I'll have to try it...
Be careful, it can seriously mess up your digestive system if you're not used to it. Try it at home for a while before taking it out on the trail with you. I'm not lactose intolerant, and only bought high-quality stuff, and I was a bloated constipated wreck.
I've been making this as a shake for breakfast for the last two months. I really don't like the taste of soy protein, this stuff has a nuttier underlying taste that I like much more. Some reviewers say that it isn't as smooth or as sweet as regular protein mixes with ingredients that you can't pronounce, but that makes sense to me. At home, I make it with FF milk for extra protein, but I can drink it with just water if needed (like if I didn't go to the store).• 130 calories per 30g (4 Tbsp) serving • No saturated fat • 9 grams of protein (30% protein) • 500 mg of Omega 3 • 10 essential amino acids• It is vegan! (no dairy) • It is soy free!• It is also gluten free! • Low in sodium • High in iron • High in dietary fiber (11g, that's 36% fiber!)The entire ingredient list is: Organic Hemp Protein Powder, Organic Palm Sugar, Organic Vanilla Flavor. That's it.Anyway, I haven't taken it on the trail yet. But I thought that I would throw this out there.
Edited by ewdysar on 02/25/2012 00:19:43 MST.
How long do you think the Play Dough would last in July on the Colorado Trail (hot days/Cold nights). I know honey is good, peanut butter is good, and dried milk is good...not so sure how the milk holds up once you mix it with honey and peanut butter.I plan on using this for my just before bed to warm me up meal1/4 Cup Peanut Butter (preservative laden kind)1/4 Cup Honey1/4 Cup Nido Whole Dry Milk + a little more till not sticky Mix in a plastic bowl so it doesn't stick as badly Peanut Butter = 1/4 Cup = 383 calories 16 g proteinHoney = 1/4 Cup = 258Nido Dry Milk = 177 calories 8 proteinTotal: Calories 818 or 414 per servingProtein: 24g or 12g per serving
If you have a trader joes around you get the trader joes brand whey protein in chocolate. Mix it with some Nido and it makes great hot chocolate to have with breakfast and after dinner (dont use boiling water though.. just warm/hot). It mixes very well compared to normal whey protein.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Authorities say a fugitive who surrendered to police after a standoff at a Las Vegas apartment was sought in the shooting death of an ex-girlfriend three weeks earlier in Northern California.
Police say William Carl Gardner III surrendered to SWAT officers and U.S. marshals a little before 1 a.m. Tuesday at an apartment several miles southeast of the Las Vegas Strip.
Another man, a woman and the woman's 3-year-old child came out of the apartment unharmed.
Police didn't immediately say whether Gardner was armed. He's been taken to the Clark County jail.
Officer Jose Hernandez says the woman may face an obstruction charge.
Police in Winters, Calif., say Gardner was sought on murder warrant in the Nov. 18 shooting death of 32-year-old Leslie Pinkston in a car in downtown Winters.

Just because a form factor is trendy doesn't mean that it's right for your business.
Naturally, we're referring to touch-based mobile phones, today's fashionable way to interface with your digital life while on the go. Thanks to the iPhone, and now a slew of other handsets, finger-swiping is in and buttons are out.
You know the drill: you can use your fingertip to navigate through all your phone's content, be it flicking your way through e-mails in your inbox, documents, or calendar entries or using gestures such as a tap to zoom in on a website or drawing a half-circle to rotate photos.
"This is where everything is going," says Erez Zevulunov, director of MIT Consulting, a Toronto-based technology solutions firm. "Star Trek is here -- keyboards have been replaced with your finger and for good reason: touch phones are easy to learn, easy to navigate, and they offer a richer graphical experience."
Nathan Dyer, senior analyst for enterprise mobility at the Yankee Group, a Boston, Mass.-headquartered research firm, says "touch"-based handsets, such as the iPhone, have done a great job at reducing user frustration. "Mobile devices are being crammed with so many features that it's difficult as a user to navigate and find what you're looking for. The iPhone has done a phenomenal job using touch-based screens to remove this user frustration," Dyer says.
"What used to take four awkward clicks on a keypad to access the calendar application can now be done with one or two 'touches,'" Dyer adds. "People generally have short attention spans, so it's critical for device manufacturers to maximize the navigation speeds."
Existing and future challenges
A "soft" keyboard, however, isn't ideal for every situation, such as for those who need to type a lengthy e-mail message.
"Touch screens are not perfect," says Dyer. "As we see with the iPhone, typing on a virtual keyboard is rather cumbersome and takes a while to get used to, [therefore] the iPhone isn't designed for heavy e-mail composers." Some users claim they don't like the lack of tactile feedback when pressing the on-screen keys, although some handsets, such as the LG Voyager, offer a small vibration sensation when the "soft" keys are pressed to confirm the button press was registered.
"Power users still want a button-based QWERTY keyboard, as with most BlackBerrys, but for everyone else it's easy to see why 'touch' is the next big thing," concludes Zevulunov.
SIDEBAR: Touch me, hold me
Here's a quick look at a few new non-iPhone touch-based phones.
- The LG Voyager smartphone features a high-resolution touch-screen on its surface, but if you prefer to type a lengthy e-mail or instant message with real buttons the handset opens up like a book to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard (and second screen) inside. Pull out the tiny antenna to watch live TV, or download music, video or podcasts.
- The new HTC Touch Cruise builds upon its popular predecessors by offering a high-quality 2.8-inch LCD screen and 3-D interface (called TouchFLO) to give you one-touch access to all your communication, entertainment and information. Powered by Windows Mobile 6 professional, the Cruise also includes integrated HSDPA, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3-megapixel camera and FM radio.
- The Neonode N2 is a little-known, gesture-based smartphone that's considerably smaller than the others at just 3-inches tall (and sporting a 2-inch screen), which can easily be toted to and from meetings. But this sleek black smartphone also offers a few impressive consumer features, such as the ability to record Internet radio streams (stored on expandable MiniSD memory up to 32GB), 2-megapixel still camera (with video recording functionality), and stereo Bluetooth.

Thank you for the great question! We also have the option available to set up an email alert when a monthly online statement is available. After logging into personal online banking, go to the Mobile & Alerts tab and select "My Alerts." The first section of the "My Alerts" page is the Account Alerts. If you select "Add New Account Alert" it will generate options. The dropdown "Alert me when" has an option that says, "Online Statement available." You can then select the account and whether you would like the alert emailed or texted.
As always, if you have any other questions, please stop by one of our branches, or call our Customer Service Department at 701-298-1550.

Physically, I'm doing very well, although there are days when I feel like a beached whale. Even Cornel has noticed that my belly is much bigger now than it was with Nathan. I still haven't had any cravings and my maternity clothes are still not fitting the way they are supposed to. I haven't been sleeping very well, but I guess as they say this is my body's way of adjusting me to those sleepless nights, right?
We have been trying to spend as much time with Nathan before his "brudder" arrives. Luckily the weather has been cooperating and we have been able to spend some time outside and let him get out to play. There are still some preparations that have to be done, like getting our house in order. But that will come soon enough.

Kelly Brook uses her "big boobs" to "distract" people.
The 32-year-old beauty - who is in a relationship with former rugby player Thom Evans and has previously dated actors Billy Zane and Jason Statham - knows her eye-popping curvaceous figure is the focus for most of the men she meets and works wonders when she is being quizzed by male journalists.
She told Style magazine: "I won't sit on the Piers Morgan show and talk about X, Y and Z. It's nobody's business but my business. Instead, I just distract people with my big boobs. They're so focused on them, they don't care what I eat for breakfast."
However, despite admitting she uses her appearance to her advantage, Kelly insists she is not a "slave" to looking good.
The 'Keith Lemon: The Film' star said: "I'm not going to put a full face of make-up on just because I've got a photographer outside my door.
"I won't be a slave to it. Maybe that's why people like me. I was always about being natural.
"I'm naturally booby, I've naturally got big hair, I've naturally got a big bum, that's just my look I guess. I'm flattered that people like it."

I am not a funny person. This is not to say I am a humorless, dour person I just cannot make jokes. I am like a well-built android which adroitly approximates most human behavior but still searches for what it means to be truly human. Humor is great and jokes are fun, but I am not going to visit any open mic nights or put on any one-lady shows, probably.
Even so, the best trick for creativity I have ever learned comes from the world of comedy. It is the yes, and ... an improvisational comedy game/principle where one player begins with an idea like we are at a beet farm. In order to continue momentum and not kill the humor, other players continue the game with a yes, and ... rather than contesting with no, I have a different (better) idea. They say, Yes! At a beet farm overrun by bears!
The yes, and ... is a basic tenant of all creative culture improv just turned it into a game. Since ideas dont exist in a vacuum, every act of creation is a remix of words and ideas to which weve thought YES! No jam session can happen without a yes, and ... culture: Someone has to play the first note, and the rest of the band plays in response to that.
Stephen Colbert believes yes, and ... is a verb. It is the act of collaborating, of working together. One person says we are artists and the next person moves the ball along with we are artists installing a new show. Projects and ideas and new worlds are created with each yes, and ... .
Yes, and ... puts the world in a mode of positivity. It removes competition and turns each interaction having a conversation, writing a collaborative haiku into a collaboration. A culture of no devolves into competition, argument, disagreement, disarray. Its confusing and unproductive.
The yes, and ... is also important in selecting your compadres, cohorts and soulmates to run wild with. A while ago, Monty Python alum John Cleese spoke on creativity at a poorly-videotaped conference for videotaping professionals. Now it lives on YouTube. He talks about the factors important to acts of creativity, one of which is fostering play friends. Play friends, said Cleese, are a group you can yes, and ... with. They are all positivity and never say no. Play friends help you get to what Cleese calls open mode where experiments and play can happen.
Yes, and ... takes everything to another plane, while no stops all forward movement. This is true not only in artistic collaboration, but also in day-to-day interactions. Try it! When someone brings you a dumb idea, try not to say how stupid it is. Just go along with the thing, but guide it your way. Instead of, No this is terrible, try to see the merits and add your own flavor to them. You might end up with surprising new brainchildren, or at least a new understanding with your co-worker. Best-case scenario: you start a movement.
But yes, and ... is not just a tool. It is an enlightening attitude. To say yes, and ... to the world is to be open and to admit not knowing all things. It is bravery and excitement and letting everything in at once. Saying yes leads to failure, but also to great things. Saying no is not a path to greatness.
Stephen Colbert said: Cynicism is a rejection of the world. Cynics always say no. But saying yes begins things. Yes is for young people. So for as long as you have the strength to, say yes.

Physiotherapists are experts in the treatment of pain originating in the muscles, ligaments, tendons and joints. We use scientifically proven methods including Therapeutic exercise and Stretching programs, Joint mobilization and modalities such as Electrical Current, Ultrasound and Laser Therapy to treat your pain.
Our physiotherapy sessions vary from 30 - 45 minutes and we do not use physiotherapy assistants.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression is achieved through the use of a highly specialized, computerized decompression table which relieves pressure on one or multiple pinched nerves in the spinal column.
Patients are secured onto the decompression table with specialized straps. A computer controls the force and angle of disc distraction which is pre-determined by your physiotherapist. This enhanced control allows the decompression table to apply a traction force to the discs, reducing intradiscal pressure and creating a vacuum.
It is used to treat conditions that result in chronic back pain such as disc bulge, disc herniation, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis.
Laser Therapy
Our Chiropractors and Physiotherapists perform laser therapy as part of their treatment, under their regular treatment fee, if we feel that laser therapy is of benefit to your condition.
Therapeutic laser therapy is a safe, effective and painless therapy which stimulates your body's own healing systems to relieve pain, increase joint mobility and promote cell regeneration.
Laser works by providing your body with billions of photons of light which can then be absorbed and changed into chemical energy. This energy is then used to support and promote tissue repair. It is this biostimulation effect of the laser which causes a decrease in inflammation and pain and an increase in tissue regeneration and healing. Treatable conditions include: low back pain, neck pain, arthritis, knee pain, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, sprains and strains, tendonitis, and carpal tunnel.
Is Laser Therapy Safe?
Low Level Therapy is very safe. It has been used for over 20 years internationally. Extensive documentation and studies have shown it to be effective and safe. Your clinician will thoroughly examine your records, evaluate your condition, and design a treatment program if laser therapy is appropriate for you.
Is Laser Therapy Painful?
Laser Therapy is pain free. A small percentage of people have reported a slight tingling along a nerve pathway. Some feel a slight sensation of warmth. The most noticeable sensation is of the probe head of the laser as it comes in contact with the skin. The majority of patients, however, feel nothing during a treatment.
Our lasers are class IIIb lasers. They are produced by Theralase and ML830.
McKenzie Method
The McKenzie Method is a system of evaluating and treating low back pain that radiates into the leg, and neck pain that radiates into the arm. It is an active treatment philosophy that involves specific movements guided by the clinician along with postural education to teach the patient how to help manage and treat the pain when they are not in the clinic.
Kinesio Taping is a technique that utilize a special medical tape which gives support and stability to your joints and muscles without affecting circulation and range of motion. Its efficacy is exhibited through the activation of neurological, circulatory and muscular systems. The Kinesio Tape is applied over muscles in specific configurations to reduce pain and inflammation, relax overused tired muscles, and to support muscles in movement. It is non-restrictive type of taping which allows for full range of motion and can be worn during athletic activities.

Oh What A Lovely War
The sins of granddad brought me to war
for England has dined on this before.
The arrogance of dad who brags my shoes
for in his eyes I am England blue
The teacher who bellows you do us proud
a vindictive sod who ruled my class
The preacher who seeks my confession
who drinks the blood of Christ in whiskey heaven?
But never mind for god is always right
The trough of greed will grunt with pride
the bombs will fall killing the dreams below.
These fat cats of war all feasting on me
Oh what a lovely war, everybody in work
More champagne for them
and the grapes of wrath for me?
The rain of mother's tears
will wash my soul
The marbles of play are gone,
No chance for love to warm my nights.
Only frost and the company of rats
gnawing on the bed of my insanity
No youth will smile with me tonight,
no innocence can protect me here.
The voice of death whispers my darkest hour
for this heart will soon be cold
and you who sleep in beds tonight
will never know the truth
The forces of ambition have gathered to see,
this place where youth will die.
Charlie Chaplin give us one last laugh
for the guns are straining on their leashes.
The generals have given their salute
and murder is about to bleed on countries lips
for this is a glorious war.
And in motherland they shall sing my praise,
hero is what I am,
But I still have a voice for one more night
though your ears will be deaf to me
Liars you are to the last,
So dam the lot of you.
For pain and fear is all I know,
the bragging rights will spill your beer
for Life was never mine to enjoy.
The lamb and beast all share my fate
though they will die in peace.
For their bodies serve a natures law
While my carcass will rot in Flanders land
Out of sight of country
for another will take my place.
I am an inmate of war
my letters the only sign of freedom
and my photograph a reminder to those,
who should have protected me?
A youth of another's man war.
Me, who gave the invisible a lucrative life?
Who served an empty command
watched over by mother's tears.
My absolution will forgive their sins.
You see I am generous with my spirit
for all I possess are the marbles of childhood
and the mercy that god gave me.
I am every mother's boy
And every mother is proud of me.
But in death I will not enter Heaven's gate
For I will wait for them.
Wait for the hand that brought me here
for I need to know the reason why?
Was this Flanders field worth the sacrifice of me?
And as this multitude of youth
marches into the arms of angels pity,
will god be blind to their confession?
For we remember that Charlie Chaplin made us laugh
We remember our mother's tears
But most of all we will remember the buggers
Who brought us here, to die in Flanders land?

India managed to gain an upper hand against the English team when they won the second test against them at Lords but were brought down to reality when the English team fought back and delivered a huge defeat to the Indians in the 3rd test. It's been a battle of equals so far in this series, but with the series being a long one and a couple of Indian Players already facing Injuries and Fatigue, it seems like tough times for India going into the 4th test.
The major concern for the Indian team in this match would be the form of their top order batsmen. With the likes of Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara failing to score big and struggling to convert starts into big ones, both the players have been major let downs for the Indian campaign in England this summer.
England on the other hand would be extremely happy with their performance at Southampton and the end result would be the one that would give them ample confidence going into the next game. Their top players are back in form and that is showing into their performance and body language as well.
England got the early advantage in the game when they wrapped up the Indian batting for a mere 152 runs before tea on day 1. After that they went on to score at a brisk rate and even though they have lost 3 wickets, they have maanged to score whatever deficit they had and are just 39 runs behind the Indian score. Going into day 2, It all looks england right now and Indian bowlers will have to create a miracle to get back in the game.
The 4th Test is scheduled for an 11 pm BST (3.30 pm IST, 6 am ET) start with live coverage on Star Sports 1, Star Sports 3 and Star Sports HD1 in India. The match can also be watched via live streaming online in India here. Catch the action in the UK on Sky Sports 2, with the option to live stream here. Viewers in the US can watch the game on ESPN 3 with the option to catch the action live online here.

Empirical data presented in this paper was derived from a wider international study of founders of new ventures (Birley and Westhead, 1992, 1993). Although the study was not designed specifically to compare novice, serial and portfolio founders, the research instrument enabled us to identify these three types of firm founders. Because there is no comprehensive list of independent firms in Great Britain a pragmatic approach was taken in the construction of the survey frame. Based on the assumption that local economic development units were most likely to be concerned about the profile of their business population, local business directories were taken as the primary data source. Lists of 'potential' independent businesses were identified. Questionnaires were sent by post between 1.10.90 and 31.3.91 to the principal owner-managers of these businesses. Some 744 questionnaires were returned, of which 621 questionnaire responses covered businesses between 1 and 50 years of age and the respondents had specified their age when they had started their first business.
In total, 389 businesses (62.6%) involved novice or one-shot founders, that is the business concerned was the first to be established by the key founder. A further 75 businesses (12.1%) involved portfolio founders, where the key founder had owned two or more businesses and still owned the first business. The remaining 157 businesses (25.3%) were serial founders who had owned two or more businesses but who did not now own the first business. Of the serial founders, 61 (9.8%) founders had sold their first business, while the remaining 96 founders (15.5%) had either closed it or had other reasons for not still owning it. On the downside, reflecting a common weaknesses of prior research in this area the characteristics of the other businesses owned by portfolio owner-managers were not collected. As a result, the full economic contribution of portfolio owner-managers cannot be assessed by this study.
No statistically significant differences were identified between the
groups of novice, portfolio and serial founder firms with regard to three
demographic attributes. Over 52% of firms in each of the groups were
engaged in service activities (59.9%, 56.0% and 52.2% of novice, portfolio
and serial firms, respectively). A slightly larger proportion of
portfolio firms were located in rural areas (those located in an area with
less than 10,000 people), although not in a statistically significant direction
(26.2%, 32.0% and 22.9% of novice, portfolio and serial firms, respectively).
In addition, no marked differences in the age of businesses since they
received their first order was recorded (on average 7.3, 6.2 and 6.9 years of age for novice, portfolio and serial firms, respectively).
Univariate Analysis
Chi-square and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests were conducted to identify statistically significant differences between founders and firms in the three ownership type groups. In total, data were collected on 95 variables which characterize the founder and the firm (for a summary description see Birley and Westhead, 1992). Dichotomizing between the three founder types statistically significant differences were observed for only 25 variables (26%). Because of space limitations, only summaries of the univariate results are presented below.
Personal Background of the Founder
No statistically significant differences were recorded between the three founder types with regard to the education level of the founder. As a result, proposition P1a cannot be supported. Whilst over 87% of the founders in each of the groups were male, as expected, a significantly smaller proportion of habitual founders, particularly serial founders, were females. In addition, a significantly larger proportion of portfolio founders rather than novice and serial founders were drawn from a managerial parental background. Novice founders, however, were significantly more likely than serial founders to be drawn from an unskilled employee parental background. Propositions P1b and P1c are, therefore, supported.
Portfolio owners may be able to found and own multiple businesses because they utilize partners, while the novice and serial entrepreneurs found their businesses alone. This 'team' aspect of entrepreneurship may be important in providing the skills and resources needed to maintain ownership of multiple businesses. As expected, habitual founders, particularly portfolio founders, were significantly more likely to have established their new businesses with an additional shareholder or partner. Additional research needs to clarify whether joint ownership is the key to the ability to maintain ownership of multiple businesses. Nevertheless, proposition P1d is tentatively supported.
As anticipated, portfolio and serial founders were significantly younger than novice founders when they started their first business with there being little difference between the average age of the two types of habitual founders. However, at the time of the survey, novice founders were significantly younger than habitual entrepreneurs, with serial founders being markedly older than novice as well as portfolio founders. Proposition P1e is, therefore, supported.
Work Experience of the Founder
Founders were asked to report on their work experience prior to the start of the business being surveyed in this study. As expected, habitual founders, particularly serial founders, had worked for more organizations prior to the start-up of the surveyed business. Supporting evidence presented elsewhere, habitual founders, particularly serial founders, were significantly more likely to have been self-employed immediately prior to start-up. Novice founders were, however, significantly more likely to have started their business in the same industry as their last employer, with portfolio founders being more likely to have changed their industrial focus. Habitual founders, particularly serial founders, were significantly more likely to have worked in a small firm with less than 100 employees prior to start-up than was the case for novice founders. In marked contrast, significantly more novice rather than habitual founders had last worked immediately prior to start-up in a large firm with 1,000 or more employees. As a result, propositions P2a, P2b and P2c are supported

Red Sox-Yankees Series Preview
Old rivals meet again. This is really the rivalry though, not that silly Yankees-Mets thing. Speaking of which, the Yanks come into the series with Boston in the Bronx tumbling down a hill, having lost four straight to the Mets. Boston, meanwhile, comes off a series split with Phildelphia. Here is a Boston-New York series preview.

Yankees vs. Red Sox Weekend Preview
This afternoon is the first game of the 2012 MLB season pitting two of the bitterest rivals in all of American pro sports against each other: the New York Yankees visit the Boston Red Sox, and they will celebrate the 100-year anniversary of Fenway Park. Some would call it a historic piece of real estate, others would call it an over-rated piece of crap, but that's another debate for another time.
Red Sox Pitcher Clay Buchholz Says He'll Return
It's Now Or Never For The Yankees
While the Red Sox and Yankees have both gone 8-2 in their last ten games, Boston suffered a huge blow to their roster over the weekend with Carl Crawford and Clay Buchholz both going on the disabled list. The message in the Yankees clubhouse the next 2-3 weeks should be loud and clear: if you want to win the AL East, it's now or never.

Biochemistry: Biosynthetic and Energy Metabolism and Its Regulation
Chemistry and Biochemistry: 153C - Winter 2010
Pass: 2 ~ No Pass: 0 ~ Satisfactory: 0 ~ Unsatisfactory: 0 ~ Incomplete: 1
Nice guy. Easy to stay awake in his lecture. Sponsored by Jack in the box (advertises the bacon ultimate cheeseburger). Material is wayyyyy less than Tienson (summer). Cool guy but never replies to your emails.
153A Textbook for sale
Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry (6th E) (Looseleaf)
Email me: email@example.com and I'll let you bargain for a fair price :D
Hello everyone,
I am taking chem 153A with gober in summer 2013.
If you have any of his old midterms i will buy them from you.
If you are interested please email: email@example.com
Thank you
Gober was a good professor, very clear in lecture. However, there are bound to be areas of confusion, as this class was very difficult. Go to Chris Allan's office hours and discussions. The other TA I had was not helpful, but Chris always went to lecture and was definitely one of the best TAs at UCLA. Chris responds to emails for help and is really knowledgeable. Overall, Gober was great and so was his TA
I'm the same guy commenting on 09/25/2012
Here are my thoughts:
1)Again, an humorous guy, I really love his character. He explains stuff really well
2) Don't miss lecture, I missed one and I lost 15 points in my MT2 because of that
3)He curves a lot more generously than most prof (about 30% A w/ avg in the 60s)
4) MT1 &2 both have avg in the 60s. MT2 avg was 69 and he said it was the highest avg he's ever seen in 15 years....be prepared to learn the whole hormone regulation inside out & how each enzyme is regulated (not trivial)
5)I never went to his office hour but I went to both TAs' discussions. You may want to ask him what to/not to study for the exam...he's usually willing to tell you (I guess)
6) Don't bother reading the text, read it ONLY if you don't understand the lecture notes. (I only read little bit about lipoprotein & cholesterol). One good thing is that he doesn't use Voet & Voet anymore(horrible text in my opinion)
7) Final: He'll tell you what exactly will be on the final, so you can focus on studying the right stuff....be prepared to memorize tons of pathways + structures + reaction mechanisms + regulations (hardest part)
Side note:
I got an A in this class luckily! (thanks to the curve). Avoid taking Dr.Clubb for 153B, he's absolutely terrible
You'll probably learn more about biochemistry in this class than in any other class at UCLA. Gober is quite the character, he'll keep you on your toes the whole class through and make you laugh as you go through the intensive lectures. My biggest advice is to listen carefully to the lectures, and bring a voice recorder if you need to! You'll see everyone else doing it, which means you should too! Get a good night's rest before the exams, because there are questions that will require you to think outside the box. Also, go to office hours if possible, sit at the front of class, and enjoy the man's jokes, he's hilarious and a genuinely nice guy! This is biochemistry...so you'll need to take it seriously (don't miss class once!), but don't forget to have fun along the way
***hey everyone
im taking chem 153c right now with gober.
if you have any of his old midterms i will buy them from you or trade you for one you need.
if you are interested please email: email@example.com
Thank you
Just want to add to the previous comment.
Don't buy the book unless you really want to read it on your own interest, because the book just complicates things, I just read the book once for about 2 pages and it doesn't help at all, just study the lecture notes and EVERYTHING he says in lecture is fair game.
He said that he hasn't taught 153A in 15 years @_@
He is a quite a humorous guy, he makes jokes all the time...he explains thing quite clearly (the class is quite straightforward anyway, everything's self-explanatory)
Midterm 1: not terribly hard but that's because the material at the beginning was easy....
My grade: 51/50 (w/ extra credit)
Avg: 36/50
Midterm 2:Harder than first one, one of the questions was not discussed in class and I've no idea why the F did he include that, I got 0 point (like many others)
My grade: 38/50
Avg: 31/50
Final: This gotta be the hardest, not only it covers RIDICULOUS amount of material, there were almost all conceptual problems (memorizing the pathways, structures and mechanism was a pain in the ass), you really need a rather deep understanding of the material in order to do them....but doable
And the good thing is that he told us what each question was about the day before final, it made life so much easier :)
Grade: no idea
Final Grade: A+
Conclusion: although rote memorization may not guarantee a good grade, you should take your time to memorize the pathway for glycolysis and TCA cycle well before the final, one day will NOT suffice (unless you have photographic memory -_-)
Dr. Gober was the best biochemistry professor I've had at UCLA. Take his course if you have the chance! He is entertaining every class period, so the 50 minutes fly by. It was a lot of memorization for all of the metabolic pathways, and I definitely put a lot of work and time into studying for this class, but ended up with an A in the course. You'll work hard, but learn a lot about biochemistry, and won't regret taking the class with Gober.
Amazing lectures compared to other biochem professors...there wasn't a lecture I wasn't entertained. The midterms are straightforward as it gets with the pathways and the final as mentioned is a bit conceptual but I believe 40 percent is the average...All that is really needed to supplement your knowledge is reading a little online about hormones and how they interact with all the pathways. It's a pretty straightforward class considering all that there is a significant amount of pathway memorization.
Pros: Great lecturer...Tells a lot of jokes^^ .Fairly straightforward midterms. To do well on the midterms, you MUST GO TO EVERY LECTURE and TAKE GOOD NOTES because some of the stuff on the midterms weren't from the notes or the book. Also, going to his office hours is a must. His TA Mat has helped me a lot in understanding many of the difficult concepts that were hard to understand at the beginning.
Cons: Very hard final. Some of the questions were being taken out of nowhere. Also he seemed to get irritated easily if you have a lot of questions during his office hours.
Overall: I didn't do so well on the final but I still managed to get an A. Overall, I would highly recommend this professor to anyone because I have learned a lot.
Gober is a really nice guy. His midterms are basically based off lecture.
What I did was record his lectures and then listen to them about a week before the test.
I aced both his midterms. The final was very difficult. He changes how he writes his questions
on the final. For instance, on the midterm he will ask you how glucose transporters work and on the final
he will ask how exercise is related to glucose transporters and AMP kinase are used to treat type II diabetes.
I didn't think I did well at all on the final but I still got an A.
Probably the coolest Professor...EVER. I got an A+ in his class and i didnt even need to touch the practice problems(they just confuse the hell outta you). Go to his lectures, and if you miss em, go to his office hours and he'll tell you exactly what you need to know. The book is helpful if you miss lecture, but definately not necessary (he hates voet and voet). Go to discussion section because Cy and the other guy (forgot his name) are really good TAs. You'll have fun in this class!
First, let's get one thing straight: there's no 153C without having a lot to memorize. However, with Gober, he knows that and he tries to simplify things so you will have less memorizing and more critical thinking. No need to touch the book (literally). His handouts and practice problems are your friends. Going to lecture is a MUST (for your grade and also for good laughs). Half of the test is similar to the practice problems, the other half is on lecture notes and applications. There are lots of unnecessary slides and pathways in his handouts, so going to lecture also means less to memorize and less work outside.
Goods: very funny (he will get you to laugh with his jokes and you can't fall asleep during lecture even when you don't know sh*t about biochem), very good lecturer
Bads: same old thing: good professor means tough exams (1st mdt is hard, 2nd is easier, and final is CRAZY). Not an easy A, but it would be one of the best class you have ever taken at UCLA.
Prof. Gober is an awesome professor. Even though there is a lot to memorize in 153C, he breaks down the material into concepts that tie together everything, so it's not just memorizing how to get from substrate A to product Z. Also, he's really funny and an extremely clear lecturer. Definitely take 153C with him if you get the chance!
Prof Gober is one of the best professors I have ever taken. He relates the course material to many interesting facts in everyday life, allowing students to realize the significance of the topics taught. He is also very concerned about his students and makes every effort to ensure that they learn something from the course. His exams are challenging, but you will be fine if you understand the course material. Overall, I would highly recommend him if you want to learn something valuable. If you just want an easy A, then he is not for you.
If you can memorize all, you do well in midterm. But final is totally different, too much concepts (He didn't really go over that stuff in class detail).... I didn't recommand him because you will feel Hell (too long and too difficult) in final, period.
Dr. Gober is a pretty good professor. He tells you everything you need to know, so there's no need to read the book. 153C is just a hard class so you have to study your butt off regardless of who's teaching. This class is hard but very possible to do well.
I took him in summer 05 and I think I really learned a lot from his class. He was really funny. He talked a lot about other non-related things in class but I think it was succesful in terms of making the class more interesting. I never fell asleep in his class, not even once! It was one of very few classes in UCLA that made me want to go to school every day. Remember it was summer so the class was 5 times a week. The topic was really interested. Yeah I had to admit that you really need to memorize a lot of things. I mean A LOT. Better take this class in the summer so that you can concentrate more on this class. But really, take him if you can. I , myself, ended up getting an A. Thanks Prof.Gober. Oyah, my TA (Arun) was REALLY helpful.

FCC Investigates Cramming Complaints Against T-Mobile

See MCI v. FCC. 515 F 2d 385 (D.C. Cir. 1974).

E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Washington, DC – The Federal Communications Commission announced today that it is investigating
complaints that T-Mobile billed its customers for millions of dollars in unauthorized third-party subscriptions
and premium text messaging services. The FCC has coordinated its investigation with the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC), which today filed a lawsuit against T-Mobile concerning the company's placement of
unauthorized charges on customer's mobile phone bills—a practice known as "cramming."
"Consumers should not be charged for services that they did not order," said Travis LeBlanc, Acting Chief
the FCC's Enforcement Bureau. "We will coordinate our investigation with the FTC, and use our
independent enforcement authority to ensure a thorough, swift, and just resolution of the numerous
complaints against T-Mobile."
Numerous T-Mobile subscribers have filed complaints with the FCC and the FTC alleging that unauthorized
charges for unwanted third-party services were added to their T-Mobile wireless telephone bills. The
unwanted charges included billing for ringtones, wallpapers, and text message subscriptions to services
providing horoscopes, flirting tips, and celebrity gossip.
During the past four years, the FCC has taken nine enforcement actions against companies for cramming that
have totaled more than $33 million in proposed fines to the U.S. Treasury.

DENVER (AP) -- Colorado is trying again to create the world's first state-chartered pot bank.
A bill up for a hearing Thursday is prompted by frustration with recent federal marijuana banking guidance. Banks and the pot industry say the guidance is inadequate.
The bill would create a financial co-op, sort of an uninsured credit union aimed at helping the pot industry move away from its cash-only roots.
Lawmakers from both parties embrace the idea. But with less than a week before adjournment, it's unclear whether they have time to pull off the feat.
Banking services have been a top priority for the marijuana lobby for years in Colorado. A similar state-chartered bank proposal was tried but abandoned as unworkable two years ago.

GIRLS season 3 ended last night. / Photo courtesy of Facebook.
Broadway and breakups rocked the Girls finale Sunday night in what was a lovely summation of the third season.
Ive always had a special relationship with Girls. I appreciate its brutal honesty and cultural relevance. Despite its randomness, it has the ability to make me laugh, cringe and empathize all at the same time.
This season came with its new version of the same old problems. Charlie leaves Marnie feeling lost and insecure, Shoshannas stuck in a post Ray, party girl haze, Jessa ditches rehab and Hannah is suffering her usual career and relationship pitfalls.
Adams eccentric sister comes to crash right before he lands a role on Broadway, making Hannah question her own success.
An advertising position at GQ offers her little more than free snacks, a wicked hangover and a hang session with Patti LuPone.
An innocent girls trip to the beach has the foursome hashing out two and a half seasons worth of issues, made infinitely worse by the party crashing Elijah and his posse. His perfectly snarky commentary is the highlight of the season. The most talked about, however, are Hannahs questionable outfit choices, which range from high waist pleated pants, to bondage lingerie.
Marnie attempts to fill the Charlie shaped hole in her life with sex from Ray and flirting with Desi, Adams drifter-esque costar. They bond over folk tunes and sexual tension.
Shoshannas shrill urgency and elaborate topknots are better than ever. As is Jessas wardrobe, and former junkie indifference.
By far the best part of this series, though, is the soundtrack. Featuring an eclectic mixture of old school and dance pop tracks, the chosen tunes perfectly narrate the array of emotions watching an episode of Girls warrants.
Worth the ews and ahs are this seasons twelve episodes, whose painfully awkward confrontations, realizations and disappointments are part of its appeal.
This less hipster, more realistic approach seems to be working for show creator/writer/star Lena Dunham, evident by the season four renewal.
Will Hannah choose grad school over Adam? Will Marnie get over herself? Will Jessa finally get her life together? Will Shoshanna ever graduate and grow up?
Either way failed relationships, dramatic showdowns and passionate freak-outs will continue to be shamelessly had, and I wouldnt have it any other way.
