Tierney Thys, Ph.D.
Shape of Life
Wednesday, February 3, 1999
3:00 p.m.Pacific Forum
Imagine if the creative genius driving todays biological
research and teachings could join forces with the creative resources of a nationally
renowned television broadcast group. Imagine if education and the entertainment industry
could be equally indulgent rather than mutually exclusive. Sea Studios Foundation, a
non-profit organization dedicated to science education, and National Geographic, are in
the throngs of just such an endeavor.
We are producing an eight-part series for public television entitled, " The Shape
of Life." Due to be broadcast nationally in 2001, the Shape of Life is an exploration
into animal design, diversity and evolution. Incorporating biomechanics, functional
morphology, developmental genetics and paleontology, with state-of-the-art animation and
natural history footage, this series tells the story of the animal kingdom in a way never
before attempted. We hope to promote the educational longevity of the Shape of Life series
in any way possible.

If youre looking for the perfect gift to express your love this Valentines Day, make that gesture a sweet one.
Theres chocolates, cupcakes, sweet wines and even calorie-free sweets-inspired beauty products lining the shelves of local shops to entice romantics. Heres a glimpse at some treats guaranteed to make a sweet impression.
Chocolates with distinction
When it comes to that classic Valentines gift of chocolate, skip the pre-packaged stuff that ends up half-eaten and go straight to the experts. Local chocolatiers are offering a dizzying array of carefully crafted treats ranging from the decadent rich truffles to the innovative chocolate-covered potato chips, anyone?
They can pick and mix and match to keep it within a budget, said Darlynne Overbaugh, owner of Lifes So Sweet Chocolates in Ithaca and Trumansburg. Along with specialty chocolates, the eateries will also offer a three-course chocolate fondue feast.
At Somethin Sweet Gourmet in Johnson City, chocolates are made daily, and something new is always in the works. The shops signature delicacy is two Ritz crackers melded together with peanut butter and dipped in milk chocolate.
Choosing the right kind of chocolate dark vs.milk shouldnt be too difficult if you know your sweethearts likes, said Michelle Depue, president of Chocolates By Leopold in Montrose, Pa.
The biggest thing is the amount of sugar, she said, noting that milk chocolate is much sweeter than dark chocolate.
Some people like only one type of chocolate or the other, so its wise to find out their preference before
buying a gift, Depue said. Or you can play detective: Buy a bit of both and leave them in view of your Valentine, see which they nibble on and then take your deductions to the chocolatier of your choice.
Some of the popular picks from Leopolds are chocolate-covered peanut butter hearts, decorated for the occasion. Theres plenty more hearts to go around, as well, including lace heart pops, chocolate hearts and heart boxes.
Lambert Chocolatier in Sayre, Pa., has its specialties, too. More than 12 flavors of handmade truffles are available, in addition to its celebrated turtles each with four fresh roasted pecans and Valentines hearts in white, milk and dark chocolate.
The basic thing is it goes back to tradition, chocolatier Hal Lambert said. Chocolate has always been considered a delicacy for Valentines Day.
Making chocolates is a labor of love and one that should be shared, Overbaugh said. Those looking to really celebrate Valentines Day should make the effort to do it well.
I think theyre looking for something that exemplifies their relationship with the person. The gift sends the message, Overbaugh said. Youre giving more than just chocolate. Youre giving something made with love and time.
Sweet alternatives
While chocolates are a mainstay of Valentines Day, other sweets shouldnt be overlooked. Cupcakes, cookies and other baked goods are certain to hit the spot for any Valentines Day guy or gal with a sweet tooth.
Baked Euphoria with a store on Watson Boulevard in Endwell and a café on Washington Street in Endicott always offers something unique for Valentines Day, owner Bonni Stacconi Phelps said.
Our red velvet cake is always popular, she said, noting that Valentines Day cookies are also a hit, especially among children.
The heart-shaped red velvet cakes are topped with chocolate ganache and an edible rose, Phelps said. New this year will be a holiday box of of nine cupcakes, which can be pre-ordered she said.
Were going to have the cupcakes done like a box of chocolates, Phelps said.
All cupcakes with have Valentines Day-inspired toppings, and there will be Guinness and maple bacon cupcakes that are popular with male clientele, she said.
Getting something sweet as a Valentines Day gift is as old as the very first dates, Phelps said.
In my mind, it goes back to the original courting days, when you would bring flowers and a box of chocolates, she said, noting that giving a special gift to your loved one can take you back to when you first fell in love.
Special offerings abound at Sincredible Pastries in Ithaca, which has its own line of delectable confections for sweethearts on Valentines Day.The bakery offers hand-decorated cookies and cupcakes specially designed for the romantic at heart.
At Walker Cake Co. in Corning, red velvet and white chocolate raspberry cookies are available along with dozens of flavors of cupcakes and cheesecakes. The Corning-based bakery also has holiday specials.
Winning wines
One of the good thing about sweets is that they can easily be paired with a bottle of wine or a bouquet of flowers. At Somethin Sweet Gourmet, a florist has been added to the staff, just in time for Valentines Day, giving a one-stop-shop of chocolate and roses and other types of fragrant flora. Area wine merchants, and regional wineries, can be counted on to offer a few tips on picking out the right vino to accompany a variety of confections.
Both red and white wines can be paired with sugary treats, said Mark Darpino, owner of Vestal Wine & Liquor. With dark chocolate, a good cabernet such as an offering from Dr. Konstantin Frank Vinifera Wine Cellars is a good choice, as well as most choices of Shiraz. With milk chocolate, skys the limit, he said.
Any New York reisling would great, Darpino said.
Six Mile Creek in Ithaca makes a rosé that would also pair well with milk chocolate, as would Glenoras rosé, for those who like a drier sweet wine, he said. Sparkling moscatos made by scores of vineyards are popular and come in red, pink and white.
Calorie-free delights
Those looking for sugar-inspired gifts that dont include calories can find plenty of ideas at the beauty counter. At beauty stores, including Ulta in the Town Square Mall in Vestal and Southern Tier Crossing in Horseheads, have oodles of products with sweetness in mind. Coconut and almond are two flavors of The Body Shops body butter in stock, as well as Vitabaths vanilla sugar and pink frosting body washes.
Philosophy sells its lush shampoo, shower gel and bubble bath in sweet flavors such as Vanilla Birthday Cake and Ooey Gooey Cookie. Freeman offers a chocolate and strawberry clay face mask.
Ulta offers its own cocoa velvet truffle shower gel and shampoo, and has a signature perfume available as for Valentines Day. Aside from scented treats are Opi Chocolate Moose and Orly Nail Chocoholic nail polishes.
For men feeling a little confused about what to get, theres no worries, Ulta assistant manager Sharon Sunness said.
Some men are intimidated and we dont want to make them feel flustered, she said.
Ithacas Far Mountain Soap offers a Hot Chocolate variety of its goats milk soap that uses actual cocoa. The rich suds carry the benefits of cocoa butter and the proteins, vitamins and minerals of goats milk. (Its available at Ithaca Made on West State Street; $4 for 3.5 oz; visit farmountainfarm.blogspot.com.)
For a small but sweet treat, Finger Lakes Soap Co. sells a Chocolate Mint lip balm, made with pure cocoa butter ($2.50; available online at www.fingerlakessoap.com). Its sure to make those Valentines Day kisses extra sweet!

Akron-Canton Airport Celebrates Busiest February Ever, Beating Record from 2006
Posted on 03/19/2012
Green, OH: February 2012 may have been a short month but it was huge for Akron-Canton Airport (CAK). Marking the busiest February in history, passenger traffic surged with a 23 percent increase compared to 2011. For the month, 128,300 passengers flew in/out of CAK. That figure surpasses our last best February (2006) by 20,975 passengers. It also marks the 11th record-breaking month in a row for CAK. Year to date passenger traffic is up 18 percent compared to the first two months of 2011.
Passenger traffic was up on all airlines. AirTran Airways, offering nonstop service to Orlando, Tampa, Ft. Myers, Atlanta, New York, Boston and Milwaukee (new service to Denver commences June 2, 2012 and Chicago Midway starts August 12, 2012), increased 24 percent compared to February 2011 carrying 65,000 total passengers. Frontier Airlines with nonstop flights to Denver was up a whopping 74 percent compared to last year. Delta, flying to Atlanta and Detroit, was up 30 percent. US Airways, with flights to Charlotte, Philadelphia and Washington D.C. (Reagan), increased by 17 percent. United Airlines with nonstop flights to Chicago O'Hare had an increase of 7 percent.
"We are so thrilled that every one of our airlines experienced an increase in business in February," said Rick McQueen, president and CEO. "Customers are finding the fares, flights and convenience that makes flying more fun and relaxing right here at CAK, and we are so happy to welcome more and more of them each and every month."

Order Now from Amazon.com
In order to meet a looming deadline for a book I've been working on, I'm going to need to cut back my blogging for the next few weeks. Rather than let Rough Type go dormant, though, I thought I might publish, in serial fashion, some earlier pieces I've written that haven't been easily accessible online. I'll start with "IT Doesn't Matter," an article published in the Harvard Business Review in May 2003. The piece caused quite a stir – I documented the controversy as it unfolded – and it continues to be a lightning rod for debate in IT circles.
I went on to greatly expand the argument of the article, and clarify a few of its points, in the 2004 book Does IT Matter?, which you can order here. You can also purchase the full text of "IT Doesn't Matter," in its original form, here. The original article includes some additional sidebars and graphics as well as many pages of letters written to HBR in response to the article.
IT doesn't matter
In 1968, a young Intel engineer named Ted Hoff found a way to put the circuits necessary for computer processing onto a tiny piece of silicon. His invention of the microprocessor spurred a series of technological breakthroughs – desktop computers, local and wide area networks, enterprise software, and the Internet – that have transformed the business world. Today, no one would dispute that information technology has become the backbone of commerce. It underpins the operations of individual companies, ties together far-flung supply chains, and, increasingly, links businesses to the customers they serve. Hardly a dollar or a euro changes hands anymore without the aid of computer systems.
As IT's power and presence have expanded, companies have come to view it as a resource ever more critical to their success, a fact clearly reflected in their spending habits. In 1965, according to a study by the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Economic Analysis, less than 5% of the capital expenditures of American companies went to information technology. After the introduction of the personal computer in the early 1980s, that percentage rose to 15%. By the early 1990s, it had reached more than 30%, and by the end of the decade it had hit nearly 50%. Even with the recent sluggishness in technology spending, businesses around the world continue to spend well over $2 trillion a year on IT.
But the veneration of IT goes much deeper than dollars. It is evident as well in the shifting attitudes of top managers. Twenty years ago, most executives looked down on computers as proletarian tools – glorified typewriters and calculators – best relegated to low-level employees like secretaries, analysts, and technicians. It was the rare executive who would let his fingers touch a keyboard, much less incorporate information technology into his strategic thinking. Today, that has changed completely. Chief executives now routinely talk about the strategic value of information technology, about how they can use IT to gain a competitive edge, about the "digitization" of their business models. Most have appointed chief information officers to their senior management teams, and many have hired strategy consulting firms to provide fresh ideas on how to leverage their IT investments for differentiation and advantage.
Behind the change in thinking lies a simple assumption: that as IT's potency and ubiquity have increased, so too has its strategic value. It's a reasonable assumption, even an intuitive one. But it's mistaken. What makes a resource truly strategic – what gives it the capacity to be the basis for a sustained competitive advantage – is not ubiquity but scarcity. You only gain an edge over rivals by having or doing something that they can't have or do. By now, the core functions of IT – data storage, data processing, and data transport – have become available and affordable to all. Their very power and presence have begun to transform them from potentially strategic resources into commodity factors of production. They are becoming costs of doing business that must be paid by all but provide distinction to none.
IT is best seen as the latest in a series of broadly adopted technologies that have reshaped industry over the past two centuries – from the steam engine and the railroad to the telegraph and the telephone to the electric generator and the internal combustion engine. For a brief period, as they were being built into the infrastructure of commerce, all these technologies opened opportunities for forward-looking companies to gain real advantages. But as their availability increased and their cost decreased – as they became ubiquitous – they became commodity inputs. From a strategic standpoint, they became invisible; they no longer mattered. That is exactly what is happening to information technology today, and the implications for corporate IT management are profound.

|Prevalence of acute mountain sickness in the Swiss Alps.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 2282425 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of symptoms and signs of acute mountain sickness of the Swiss Alps. DESIGN: A study using an interview and clinical examination in a representative population of mountaineers. Positive symptoms and signs were assigned scores to quantify the severity of acute mountain sickness. SETTING: Four huts in the Swiss Alps at 2850 m, 3050 m, 3650 m, and 4559 m. SUBJECTS: 466 Climbers, mostly recreational: 47 at 2850 m, 128 at 3050 m, 82 at 3650, and 209 at 4559 m. RESULTS: In all, 117 of the subjects were entirely free of symptoms and clinical signs of acute mountain sickness; 191 had one or two symptoms and signs; and 158 had more than two. Those with more than two symptoms and signs were defined as suffering from acute mountain sickness. At 4559 m 11 climbers presented with high altitude pulmonary oedema or cerebral oedema, or both. Men and women were equally affected. The prevalence of acute mountain sickness correlated with altitude: it was 9% at 2850 m, 13% at 3050 m, 34% at 3650 m, and 53% at 4559 m. The most frequent symptoms and signs were insomnia, headache, peripheral oedema, and scanty pulmonary rales. Severe headache, vomiting, dizziness, tachypnoea, and pronounced pulmonary rales were associated with other symptoms and signs and therefore characteristic of acute mountain sickness. CONCLUSION: Acute mountain sickness is not an uncommon disease at moderately high altitude--that is, above 2800 m. Severe headache, vomiting, dizziness, tachypnoea, and pronounced pulmonary rales indicate severe acute mountain sickness, and subjects who suffer these should immediately descend to lower altitudes.

If by a miracle from God that Honda and Yamaha allow a satellite team to sign Val adn ride their bike do you guys really believe his situation is gonna change much? He will get a bike about as stock as a Fireblade and R1 and still be fighting for no better than 5th or 6th - depending on how good the Ducati will be.
Rossi would be at a satellite team with no input on the direction of the bike and no influence on the development waiting on the factory bits to trickle down like a begger on the street. He will be better off staying at Ducati if he stays in GPs. Unless of couse another factory joins like Aprilia, BMW, or Suzuki.

I can't seem to add ReplayGain tags to my mp3s without foobar mutilating my other tags. For example, depending on the options I've chosen (tag to write: ID3v1 only, ID3v1 & V2, etc), instead of simply adding replaygain tags (ID3v2), foobar decides to either:
(a) copy my ID3v2 tags over to my ID3v1 tags (artist, title, etc)
(b) delete my ID3v1 tags (artist, title, etc)
These are things I don't want it to do. All I'm trying to do is ADD ReplayGain tags, and I dont want any of my other tags touched, copied, or moved. Is it possible somehow?
I'm not the only one getting frustrated by this it seems... http://www.misticriver.net/boards/showthre...ed=1#post294203
[ 1st post - sorry if its in the wrong place. ]
[ I'm a lover of foobar, keep up the good work - I love the ORDER BY ARTIST feature in the playlist, which winamp doesnt have]

Rather than have foobar helpfully asume it knows what is best for my tags, wouldnt it be better to have an option? Like I say, I'm not asking it to mess with my tags, theres good reason why some of my collection uses ID3v1, some uses ID3v2, ad some use a mixture - I don't want a program to mess them up - especially without asking me first. What other hidden functions does foobar perform when I ask it to perform routine tasks I wonder.. scary!
At the end of the day all I told foobar to do was write ID3v2 replaygain tags, but it seems to have deleted the ID3v1 tags on ALL my 10gigs worth of mp3 collection, and overwritten them with (sometimes incomplete) ID3v2 tags. Crazy. Wheres the undo button?
Is the developers don't see this as an issue, can someone recommend a program which can actually write replaygain tags without doing any other unrequested functions at the same time?

On day two of the J/22 World Championship, sponsored by Fidelity Investments, Allan Terhune of Arnold, MD upheld his lead as three spectacular races were completed. Including the crew of Katie Terhune, Kristine Wake and Marcus Eagan, Dazzler has compiled a line of 1,2,3,(9),2 in the five races completed thus far, with the throw-out race now taking effect.
Fleet in action on day 2 at the J/22 Worlds
Terhune has totaled just eight overall points, six ahead of Benz Faget's Fats and ten in front of Chris Doyle's The Jug 4 1. Hosted by Sail Newport, the five-day event marks the 30th anniversary of the J/22.
Wednesday dawned with promising winds, and when Brad Julian on ThreeDories.com began the day with a triumph in Race three of the Championship, winds were about 10-12 knots with a light chop. Legends Regatta winner Lars Hansen on OldsKool came in second and Terhune third. By the next battle, the breeze piped up to 16-20 knots with an increased chop.
Team in action on day 2 ay the J/22 Worlds
Faget took the bullet in that contest, with local Will Welles' Cougar and Hansen following. Winds backed off slightly in the final contest of the day when Chris Doyle's The Jug 4 1 collected the victory. Terhune took second, and Faget third.
Racing continues through Saturday for the 71 teams from Canada, the Cayman Islands, South Africa and the USA. Complete results, regatta information and live racing updates are available at Event website

King: Sometimes a column is written when it's too late
W hen I was just 6 years old, I would creep down into our basement and open up a box filled with old newspaper clippings. I discovered old editions of The Independent-Observer from the late 1970s, and the articles were fascinating.
Thanks to the information found in those vintage packages, it became obvious that Southmoreland had a special baseball program. They had a cast of players with college-level talent in Mark King, Scottie Logan and Tom Skovira. That's just naming a few. They also had a manager who I would read about and hear about from my father quite often.
That man would turn out to be my future 10th-grade history teacher and basketball coach, Harry Bowser.
It was no secret that Mark King was my father. When I had Harry Bowser for class I knew how much my father respected him. I had an admiration for Bowser because of how highly he was spoken about for years leading up to my personal high school career. I read about Bowser as a small child so I already had preconceived notions that I would get favoritism for being Mark King's son. I really didn't know Harry Bowser.
The background is important because it inspired me into taking my tall and extremely thin frame to the basketball court in 2005 in attempt to play for Bowser. In 2004, Bowser took over a program that in 2003 did not register a single win. That inaugural 2004 season, Bowser would go 3-21. The record doesn't reveal the progress made.
Southmoreland basketball was in shambles before Bowser arrived. That summer after his first season Bowser worked extremely hard getting his youthful team more experience in valuable undergrad tournaments.
I got a valuable opportunity to witness Harry Bowser's true greatness firsthand without him even knowing that I was almost documenting the entire season in my head as the 12th man on a 12-man team.
Watching Bowser interact and lead the group of young men that he did 10 years ago was remarkable. A staple of a great coach is that even old players of his who love him dearly did not want to be quoted for they know how Bowser does not enjoy the spotlight.
That's what I loved about him as a coach. Here is a man who turned around a program with very little community support with the exception of Tim Dunn and the parents committee, yet never boasted or carried that chip in the public eye.
I watched him motivate a group of teenagers by using the community as a tool. He would talk about giving the locals a reason to be excited in the dreary winter and as the team started to improve dramatically,
Bowser was right. Home games at SHS were electrifying during Bowser's era. He always worked hard at encouraging students who ordinarily would not come to games to show positive support. It was all about being classy when it came to Bowser.
Practices weren't walks in the parks by any stretch. They were demanding, but they had a purpose. Bowser didn't waste time and he never caved in. If he wants 100 layups in a row, you weren't putting in 99 consecutive, missing the 100th and calling it a day. You were doing the task the right way.
When I graduated I was too prideful to write this column while I had the opportunity. I had pulled a publicity stunt my senior year that Bowser wasn't the least bit fond of.
Even though I wasn't his player anymore he still had a word with me about it. Looking back, it was a remarkable gesture on his part, but at the time I was an arrogant punk who took it as a slight almost.
My punk behavior prevented me from publishing a column about a man that I could fully appreciate. The baseball players from the later 20th century knew Bowser as a great baseball coach.
Nobody really seemed to be able to add it all up and realize how truly special Bowser was to have been successful in multiple sports.
Only a select few were even aware that he coached baseball back in the day and was successful at it.
In 2013, Mr. Bowser had a health scare. I was literally filled with guilt for I knew that this column should have been written in 2006 when I had the chance. This is one perspective from the smallest of corners.
I encourage Southmoreland to have a night in Bowser's honor where actual contributing players from all decades can accurately portray what this man has meant to this school district and community. I'm just glad that this column has been finally submitted because sometimes a column is written too late.
Josh King is a contributing writer.

World's coolest family salutes brother in '80s-esque music video
When my family gets together, we play "Apples to Apples" and try not to let our religious arguments get too personal. When the family in the video above gets together, they make rad, '80s-inspired video tributes to their brother.
"We Are Brothers" was ostensibly made by two siblings, "Rufus Starlight" and "Baddy Paris," and has racked up more than half a million views since being posted to YouTube Monday. And it's pretty awesome/touching in a nonsappy way. Apparently prompted by their brother's pending nuptials, the video recaps the men's mutual past: "You were a loser/Your haircut was a mullet"; "I used to change your nappy." It implores the brother not to leave his family.
The brothers reveal on a website that they made the video because they knew they would cry too much if they had to give a traditional best man's speech.
So, in between laughing and wanting to dance while watching the video, I kept thinking, "Wow, this family really loves each other."
There's a wealth of (sometimes fictional?) background information on the associated website. As an added bonus for musicians, the Youtube description includes the song's cords; I'll be looking for the Iron and Wine cover next week.
In any case, the next time you face the prospect of making a drunken, sorry excuse of a wedding toast, take a cue from this awesome family and release a superhigh production value music video instead.

As if the proposed margins tax on gross sales is not repellant enough to struggling Nevada businesses and those out of state contemplating relocation to Nevada, Democrats and their union accomplices have come up with yet another destructive scheme to redistribute our diminishing wealth to their pockets, er? excuse me, "the children."
This new extortion vehicle introduced by Speaker Kirkpatrick, Democrat (who else?), would impose an "entertainment" tax of 8 percent to be imposed on "gyms, golf courses, concerts, convention centers, theaters, shows, exhibitions, exhibition halls, trade shows, athletic or sporting contests, races, certain private clubs and membership clubs" and on any food and beverages purchased at those places or events. Nice, huh?
The prescient Adam Smith once said, "If you want less of something, tax it." If diminishing tax revenues are "the" problem, as Democrats trumpet, then how much sense does it make to assault the engines of tax revenue, not to mention jobs, opportunity and prosperity? None.
In the age of Barackenomics we are forbidden to question results (57.8 percent graduation rate) and spending levels, particularly if it may adversely affect favored constituencies.
Forget innovation and private incentive. Tax, tax, tax.

Homes for the holidays: Annual tour to feature 5 area houses
When Joan Brown took ownership of her mother's College Avenue home in Olde Town Conyers two years ago and made plans to renovate it, the job became a bit more extensive than she had anticipated. The then 57-year-old house suffered from termite damage so extensive that the Browns rebuilt the structure, leaving only the original brick foundation and chimney.
