The whole system is built out of quality parts and looks and sounds great. I had a drop in K&N filter prior to installing the Injen Short Ram Intake System so I am not sure what kind of horsepower gains it provides. The installation was easy, althought one of the mounting points was off a little bit and kinked the elbow that attaches to the throttle body. I used a different mounting point that was about two inches away from the mounting point recommended in the instructions and it worked out much better, perfect alignment. I hope the polished finish is easy to maintain but for now it looks great.

Cal quarterback Riley's popularity rebounds
Olin Buchanan
Rivals.com College Football Senior Writer
In times of despair, comfort can be found from a parent's sympathetic ear or words of encouragement.
And if there was ever a time that California quarterback Kevin Riley needed compassion, it was after the second-ranked Bears lost 31-28 to Oregon State on Oct. 13.
With Cal in range of a short field goal that would've forced overtime, Riley � then a redshirt freshman making his first career start in place of injured Nate Longshore � ran from the pocket rather than throw a clock -stopping incompletion in the game's final seconds. He was tackled at Oregon State's 9, and time ran out before Cal could line up for a field-goal attempt.
LSU had lost to Kentucky earlier that day) for the first time since 1951 was gone. Disappointed fans in Berkeley blamed him for the loss. They blamed him for ruining the season. They blamed him for killing their buzz.
A few minutes later, Faustin Riley - a football coach at Beaverton (Ore.) High School who had proudly watched the youngest of his four children grow from a 5-foot-5, 107-pound eighth-grade overachiever into a 6-3, 215-pound college quarterback - met with his son outside Cal's locker room.
"The first thing he said to me was, 'You really messed up,' " Kevin said.
Kevin Riley was laughing when he told that story, which says a lot about him.
Such an unfortunate mistake in such a demoralizing loss could cripple a player's confidence. It could impede his development. It could leave him seeking out the security of the sideline.
That wasn't the case for Riley, who several weeks later got the last laugh. Again in place of the injured Longshore, he had an excellent performance in a victory over Air Force in the Armed Forces Bowl and undoubtedly established himself as Cal's quarterback of the future. The only question is whether that's the near or distant future.
Riley entered spring practice expecting to challenge Longshore's two-year hold on the starting job. The oft-injured Longshore pulled a pectoral muscle and has missed the past two weeks of practice, allowing Riley to take the vast majority of snaps with the first team.
The competition doesn't figure to be settled until August. But even in that game against Oregon State, it was apparent a competition was coming.
Because of the way that game ended, frustrated fans forgot Riley went 20 of 34 for 294 yards and two touchdowns. They forgot the Bears trailed 31-21 with less than three minutes remaining and Riley threw a 64-yard touchdown pass to Lavelle Hawkins. They forgot that on the final drive, he threw a 19-yard completion on fourth-and-17, then threw a 37-yard pass to Robert Jordan to put the Bears in position to tie.
"We had a chance to win and it's too bad the way it ended. I know I messed up that situation," Riley said. "I took a lot of crap from people in the Bay Area. They said I ruined the season or ruined their life. But you've just go to brush that off."
Even on that disappointing night, Faustin Riley was sure his son would bounce back. "He's pretty good at flushing stuff and moving on to the next thing," Faustin said. "He's just got a special makeup. He's always had the chip. He always felt like he's underestimated."
If anyone thought one mistake � even a monumental one � was going to make Kevin Riley collapse, they were underestimating him.
Riley did not play again until he replaced Longshore, who was struggling on a sprained ankle, with Cal trailing Air Force 21-0 in the bowl game. Riley went 16 of 19 passing for 269 yards and three touchdowns to lead Cal to a 42-36 victory.
"After the Air Force game, some of those guys that were bad-mouthing me were saying 'way to go,' " Riley said. "But that's the whole sports atmosphere. When you're winning, they love you, and when you're losing, they hate you. That's part of it."
Now, he's beloved, as most second-team quarterbacks are. Although some believe Longshore eventually will emerge as the Bears' starter in 2008, Riley has become the popular choice among fans who have grown weary of Longshore's frequent injuries and costly turnovers.
Last season, Longshore threw eight interceptions in the fourth quarter; seven of those came with the Golden Bears trailing by nine or fewer points.
Some might wonder if either quarterback really wants to be the starter this season, which on the surface might seem like a no-win situation. Cal lost its top three receivers from '07 � DeSean Jackson, Jordan and Hawkins � as well as leading rusher Justin Forsett. On top of that, tailback James Montgomery � expected to replace Forsett in the starting lineup � transferred to Washington State. But the ever-confident Riley is convinced the Bears can be better than last season's team, which finished 7-6.
"We have some young kids that are inexperienced, but are tremendous athletes. They're talented, they just haven't played," he said. "We have some redshirts that now have chances to be big contributors. There will be some first-game jitters because there will be a lot of people and it's a big stage. But we definitely have athletes."
Whether Riley is the starter when the Golden Bears open the season against Michigan State on Aug. 30, the Berkeley faithful can be encouraged that they have a quarterback who has proved he handle the toughest situations, come back and even flourish.
Riley knows he needs to get better, and feels like he has this spring.
"I know the offense now and all the reads," he said. "I'm just more confident in the pocket and the huddle. Every play I feel confident. It's completely different since last year. I've just got to execute the offense and make as few mistakes as possible. If I don't execute the offense, I won't be the starter.
"I've got to make the right choices."
Name the four college teams that have had more than 60 players taken in the first round of the NFL draft. (Answer at the end of the column.)
West Virginia coach Bill Stewart said to expect the Mountaineers' offense to use the middle of the field more than they did under previous coach Rich Rodriguez.
"We've got to exploit the middle of the field. It's been left open for far too long," he said.
Stewart said getting the football to receivers between the linebackers and safeties will add an extra component to an already-explosive spread offense, which previously focused on getting the ball outside.
Rivals Radio: WVU coach Bill Stewart joins Bill King
Count Connecticut coach Randy Edsall as a staunch supporter of a series with Notre Dame, and not because the Irish posted only three victories last season.
The proposed 10-year series could begin as early as 2009 and would include five games at Notre Dame and five games at neutral sites such as Foxboro, Mass. and East Rutherford, N.J.
Edsall said a series with Notre Dame would raise UConn's profile and provide better recruiting opportunities in Massachusetts and New Jersey.
Ohio State has had 66 first-round draft picks, while USC has had 65 and Notre Dame and Miami 61 each.

I received a call this week from representatives of the D.C. Health Benefit Exchange in response to my article published by Townhall.com in which I outlined my journey to discover which plans under the D.C. health exchange exclude elective abortion coverage.
My previous calls to DC Health Link representatives yielded the same answer to my question – that every plan offered in the D.C. exchange covers elective abortion, even the Multi-State Plans (MSPs), one of which is required by the Affordable Healthcare Act (ACA) to exclude elective abortion coverage. Representatives were helpful, courteous and quite confident that all D.C. health care plans on the exchange were required to cover elective abortion coverage because it is considered an "essential benefit."
I outlined my unsuccessful journey to find a pro-life plan on DC Health Link in an op-ed published in Townhallon Wednesday. Shortly after its publication, I received a call from the Director of Communications and Deputy Director of Policy for the D.C. Health Benefit Exchange, informing me that I was given completely incorrect information about abortion coverage on the exchange.
Both D.C. Health Benefits representatives were gracious and apologetic. They first apologized for the incorrect information and began to explain the actual policies regarding elective abortion coverage on the D.C. health exchange. Since I had been trying for weeks to get complete and accurate answers about elective abortion coverage in D.C., I was happy to have the matter rectified. During the calls I made to DC Health Link reps, I was originally told that elective abortion was considered an "essential benefit" in the D.C. exchange and, therefore, it was covered under all plans offered under the exchange. Each representative I spoke with confirmed that statement with their supervisors. I explained that MSPs were required by law to offer one plan that did not cover abortion and the response I was given was that all MSPs covered elective abortion. There was no place to get detailed information on the website to confirm or deny the answers I was given regarding elective abortion coverage, so I had to rely on the information given to me by DC Health Link representatives.
The D.C. Health Benefits representatives who called my office in response to my article revealing my findings about abortion coverage in D.C. informed me that, in fact, under both the 34 individual plans and the 267 D.C. "SHOP," or small business exchange plans which Congress Members and staff are required to use, all plans offered by Aetna (private plans) as well as all MSP plans (which are offered by BlueCross BlueShield) exclude elective abortion coverage in compliance with ACA Section 1303.

Friday September 27, 1996
Time has not been as kind to "Giant" as you wish it had. George Stevens' 1956 film of the Edna Ferber novel flows beautifully in its earliest sections, set circa 1925, but begins to lose momentum after leaping to 1941 and finally to sometime in the early '50s, when the filmmakers labor mightily to tie everything up. Even so, Stevens enriched the novel, adapted by Fred Guiol and Ivan Moffat, giving it depth and dimension.
At 202 minutes, it's just too long, yet it has the pull of nostalgia (if you're of a certain age) and sustains its emotional impact as a portrait of a durable marriage. It dazzles with late Golden Era star performances, as Rock Hudson's Bick Benedict, the Texas rancher, sweeps Elizabeth Taylor's Virginia aristocrat Leslie Lynnton off her feet and plunks her down right smack in the middle of Reata, his ancestral 595,000-acre spread.
Bick and Leslie convincingly love each other deeply, and over the decades the liberal Leslie gets her devoted husband to see beyond himself as the ancestral master of all he surveys and to develop a social conscience. There's a sense of real give-and-take between the Benedicts that gives us the feeling that we're watching the history of a real, if idealized, marriage unfold before our eyes.
The towering Hudson, furthermore, has the scale and authority that makes him perfectly cast as the fair-minded, principled, sometimes obtuse but never close-minded ruler of Reata. More than anyone else it is Hudson who holds the film together, a rugged, handsome Benedict to match cinematographer William C. Mellor's endless Texas vistas and to match the astonishing beauty and quick wit of Taylor's Leslie.
Indeed, Hudson received an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of Benedict but lost to Yul Brynner for "The King and I."
Although Benedict's gradual enlightenment is most persuasive, "Giant's" handling of discrimination against Mexican Americans, although surely accurate, becomes terribly heavy-handed. Stevens was arguably politically correct to lay it on thick back in the conservative '50s, but a subtler touch would seem less dated today.
Dimitri Tiomkin's score, florid as it is, is not as obtrusive as you might expect; you just wish it wasn't quite so ubiquitous.
"Giant" is of course most famous as James Dean's final film, and while he certainly projects his unique vulnerability as Jett Rink, the Reata cowhand who becomes a Texas oil tycoon, there is something a little extraneous about Rink because not enough screen time is devoted to him. (He, too, earned a best actor nomination.)
There's no doubting his resentment of Benedict and his attraction to Leslie, but are these the reasons why he turns into a raving drunk? It's as if he's being punished for his ambition, lack of traditional family values and nouveau riche bad taste.
"Giant" mainly benefits from its large, notable cast, especially from Jane Withers. She embodies a good-hearted vulgarity as a loyal, kindly woman who had her own heart set on Bick yet extends the gift of enduring friendship to both Bick and Leslie.
Where "Giant" is absolutely flawless is in Boris Leven's production design, with the Benedicts' superb Second Empire mansion--its rich Renaissance Revival interiors eventually giving way to white paint and boring Williamsburg-style reproduction furniture and finally to tasteful '50s luxe glamour.
Marjorie Best's costumes similarly evolve while Moss Mabry's costumes for Taylor suggest period less emphatically, representing Leslie's timeless good taste.
Painstakingly restored for a 40th anniversary release, "Giant" is far from a great film but undeniably a classic of its era.

The oil filter is a cartirige stlye filter. If you open the hood there is a black cover with 26mm head on it. Its just to the right of the engine cover.

The Rivals star system is always a point of contention between fans of college football. Sometimes, a two-star recruit will blossom into an All-American. Other times, a five-star blue chipper won't see the field.College coaches usually turn a blind eye to these rankings, and the recruitment of Tamp (Fla.) ATH Jeremy Deering proves this point. While he's a more highly heralded recruit with three stars before his name, Deering has more offers from many players ranked above him. ...More...

I purchased a hot tub from Brady's and without question it was the best investment I ever made. Not only is the hot tub that I bought beautiful, but my back hasn't felt so good in years. The people at Brady's care so much about their customers that they truly go out of their way to help you in anyway that they can. I highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for a hot tub. These people are GREAT!

Yes, believe it or not, this past weekend was my first tour of the season!! I've been cycling, of course, but mainly brevets, a randonnees, a 24-hour event, monthly century rides, some commuting, and a lot of recreational rides ..... but no tours.
Saturday started cold (-2C) and overcast when I got up to go to work. Sadly, I have had to work just about every Saturday (as well as Monday-Friday) for the past year ... doesn't leave much time for touring or cycling in general! All day, I kept an eye on the weather ... but it remained cool and cloudy ........ until just before I headed for home. Then the sun came out and the temperature warmed up!
I dashed home, packed my panniers, had a bite to eat ... then at some point after 5:00 pm, my ride partner and I hopped on our bicycles and headed to Pine Lake.
It was lovely out! There was very little wind, the sun was shining, and it was quite warm. I chose a route that I thought would be the shortest distance to Pine Lake, but it wasn't long before we ran into road construction .... and an unscheduled detour.
On tours when time is a bit of a concern, the mind starts to play tricks on you. Although we had both ridden some of the roads toward Pine Lake, we both thought that the next turn should be "just around the corner". We also both experienced a bit of selective amnesia when it came to the quantity of hills on the route. My ride partner had joked a bit, some time ago, that the area around Red Deer was flat ... but it really isn't!! We climbed over one fairly large hill, and finally reached the first turn off .... and then started climbing up to the crest ... only to discover ... a second crest. Well, OK, we could handle that ... and topped that one to discover ... another crest ... then another ... and another!! False summits, not rollers!! The shadows were growing long, darkness was falling, and with each hill we climbed, we were faced with headlights of oncoming traffic above us ... yet another crest! I began to think that we'd never reach the next intersection!
It was lonely out there, but a beautiful, clear night with no moon and no wind ... and we were treated to one of nature's greatest shows ... the onset of the aurora borealis. I first noticed them off to our left as they swept in huge pale green curves across the sky that slowly but surely overtook us. They weren't bright enough to show our way as a moon would have done, but we marvelled at forces much, much greater than mankind could ever create. The northern lights never cease to amaze me!
The night sky entertainment also had other spectators. A family of coyotes set off their wails and howls, sounding as though they were right next to us alongside the highway.
For some reason I had the impression that Pine Lake was only about 40 kms away. I was a little bit off ... it is 60 kms away. I've also only been to Pine Lake once for about 5 minutes so I really had no idea what to expect out there ... especially since it is technically the end of the camping season here. I had glanced at the Alberta Campground Guide earlier in the week and noticed that there were about 6 campgrounds, but that a couple of them were only RV parks, and a couple of them were closed for the season, and a couple of them were open. The names of three of them started with an "S" ... but only one of those "S" names was open ....... and I couldn't remember which one!
We had finally turned onto the road going past Pine Lake and I almost sailed past the entrance to the various campgrounds in the dark. It's not particularly well-marked. My ride partner, however, was paying attention and stopped to shine a helmet light on the signs. And sure enough, there were three parks that started with "S": Scotty's RV Park, Sandy Cove, and Spruce Bay. Which one??
Off down the road again ... and by this time it was pitch black out with the exception of the aurora borealis and some distant orange streetlights. We negotiated two "Y" junctions, stopping each time to get directions from the signs, and finally had to make a choice between the three, and we picked Spruce Bay ... despite the fact that each sign for Spruce Bay looked derelict compared with the other two!
On down the road ... to find yet another hill! By this time I was welcoming the hills because I was FREEZING!! I had started the ride thinking it would be fairly warm and wasn't dressed for the rather sudden drop in temperature that occured after the sun set. My ride partner, however, was pretty comfortable.
We finally arrived at Spruce Bay to find the place all packed up for winter, and deserted ....... well, almost! There was a small gathering of people around a campfire who told us in unison to "ring the bell". We found the bell, rang it, and a rather surprised camp manager peeked out the door window before opening up and arranging a site for us. Considering we had arrived in the dark at 9:30 pm, he was quite co-operative, although he did seem very amazed that we had arrived by bicycle and not car. He gave us the pick of the powered sites in the open part of the campground for the price of an un-powered site, and we set up camp.
For the rest of the evening, we were treated to the aurora borealis rippling, moving, and flaring like huge skyscrapers reaching into the sky accompanied by choruses from the coyotes. The northern lights had deepened in brightness and were showing in various greens with hints of pink and red. One looked like an explosion bursting high We walked down to the lake, which was so perfectly calm I almost walked right into it thinking it was part of the path, and watched the aurora borealis from there for a while, reflecting in the mirror of the lake. Absolutely beautiful!
The night was chilly ... I'm not sure what the temperature would have dropped to, but probably near the freezing mark. However, shortly after the sun came up, our unsheltered site became quite warm.
I spent the morning sitting in the sun, overlooking the lake, reading a textbooks for one of my courses ... puts a little damper on my trips these days when I have to do homework, but still, if I have to read a text, it might as well be under those conditions. My reading was interspersed with heaps of delicious pancakes prepared by my ride partner on his Trangia stove.
Suddenly there was a loud knocking high above us!! Near the top of an old, disused power pole clung a large bird with a red tuft on his head and a long beak. Woody Woodpecker!! I'd never seen one that large before.
We walked down to see the lake in the daylight, and I was talked into walking out onto the rickety jetty, which I did very nervously (I'm not fond of water, especially when there are no railing ... what cat is fond of water?). We were entertained by a couple making an unsuccessful attempt to launch their powerboat and get it started. They ended up putting it back on the trailer, after the woman had stood in the water up to her thighs for almost half an hour to steady it in the waves and light breeze. Later we were astounded to see them drive off with their dog in the front seat and the woman in the back!
Then we packed up camp, and headed back. Interestingly, in the sunshine and heat, the distance back didn't seem nearly as long as the ride out there. It was quite beautiful too, with the leaves in their fall colors, and the harvesting underway ... and we made it home before dark!

George Zimmerman, the security guard who claimed to have shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in self-defence and was subsequently tried last summer, has allegedly promised to participate in a celebrity boxing match.
Picture: Beyonce - 100 Cities across America held rallies for Trayvon Martin, protesting the jury's decision finding George Zimmeerman not guilty of shooting Trayvon Martin. -...
What makes a celebrity a celebrity? It's an age old question which seems to become more abstract and contorted as time goes on.
George Zimmerman, apparently, is a celebrity. Or so his promised participation in a celebrity boxing match would suggest!
Zimmerman is, in case anyone has been avoiding the news for the past two years, the man who shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in February 2012. Zimmerman claims he shot Martin in self-defence whilst working as a security guard in a gated Florida community. Although Zimmerman was acquitted during the trial, which continued throughout summer 2013, numerous protests were organised owing to the delayed arrest of Zimmerman and the accusations that he had racially profiled Martin. The court case was high profile and attracted numerous celebrity contributors and commentators, including Beyoncé and Jay-Z.
Zimmerman's legal troubles may not be over yet as a Federal court is reviewing the case in order to ascertain if Martin's civil rights were violated.
Zimmerman has agreed, as ABC Action News confirmed, to participate in a celebrity boxing match, according to the fight promoter organising the match. TMZ first reported the news yesterday (Thursday 30th January) and claimed the opponent has not been selected.
The article included a promise that Zimmerman would fight "anyone." An email address was included in order to allow members of the public to put their names forward as possible opponents for the match, due to take place on March 1st.
The fight promoter is ensuring racial profiling is not a factor in Zimmerman choosing an opponent. A source, speaking to TMZ, stated "We're not looking at it as a race thing. We haven't discussed purple, yellow, white, black."
Political correctness will, most definitely, be missing from this farce and the only real positive of this bizarre situation is Zimmerman promising the proceeds of the match will go to charity.

Michigan Reserve units first to get new M915A5 truck
October 6, 2010
By Ashley John
, Maj. Corey Schultz
Related Links
WALKER, Mich. - Two Army Reserve companies in Michigan became the first units to be equipped with the new M915A5 line-haul tractor truck in a ceremony Sept. 29.
The 180th & 182nd Transportation Companies of the 310th Expeditionary Sustainment Command, U.S. Army Reserve, each received 60 of the new trucks. The new M915A5 tractor truck is designed to be the "prime-mover" for the Army's fleet of semi-trailers and fuel tankers.
The new trucks feature increased survivability, added situational awareness and improved Soldier comfort through various structural and performance enhancements, officials said.
During the ceremony, Col. David Bassett, project manager for Tactical Vehicles, addressed how the M915A5 is the first to be designed with a fully scalable and integrated armor protection package, meaning the vehicle comes off the production line equipped with "A-Kit" armor components and built-in mounting provisions for the "B-Kit."
"These trucks are special," said Bassett. "They feature the ability to accept additional armor as missions dictate. The trucks are manufactured with the 'A-Kit' for peacetime and humanitarian operations, and the 'B-Kit' armor can be easily added to provide Soldiers with 360-degree protection during combat operations."
The ceremony was also attended by members of the Army's Program Executive Office for Combat Support and Combat Service Support, or PEO CS&CSS, and many others.
Brig. Gen. Frank Cipolla, the deputy commander of the 88th Regional Support Command, explained that the technical and tactical proficiency of the two Army Reserve companies made them ideal units to be first equipped with this new truck. The M915A5 will replace older trucks, bringing Soldiers better armor, increased survivability - and more comfort, he said.
"We are very proud to accept these trucks," Cipolla said. "Our Soldiers deserve them. We are an operational Reserve, trained, equipped, and employed at levels with the active Army."
Chief Warrant Officer 2 Jonathan Ten Brink, commander of the 180th Transportation Company, described the importance of leaving a unit better than when receiving it.
"I can't think of a better gift than these trucks as I ... deploy to Afghanistan," said Ten Brink.
Designed and made in America by Daimler Truck North America, the new M915A5 incorporates a 500-horsepower engine, an enhanced axle and suspension system, two fuel tanks which increase mission range, and additional interior cab space to provide comfort and space for Soldiers and their equipment.
"The advanced creature comfort is wonderful ... from heated mirrors to improved suspension and space - the Soldiers are ecstatic to be receiving new equipment. It is a great booster to morale," added Ten Brink.
In August the Product Manager for Heavy Tactical Vehicles, which falls under the leadership of the Project Manager for Tactical Vehicles, PEO CS&CSS, obtained Full Material Release approval for the M915A5, with the direction for the first 710 vehicles to be fielded to the Army Reserve.
The fielding of the M915A5 will permit the Army to replace many of the older, aging M915-series tractor trucks currently in use.
"We could not do our mission without you, and these trucks enhance our ability both in peacetime and at war" added Chief Warrant Officer 2 Michael Miller, commander of the 182nd Transportation Company. "We are honored to be the first unit equipped."
"This ceremony is proof of what we knew all along...the Army doesn't roll without the Army Reserve," added Cipolla.
(Maj. Corey Schultz is a public affairs officer for the U.S. Army Reserve. Ashley John provides strategic communications for PEO CS&CSS.)

Re: Excelsior Technical Manual - Revived!
^ Huh, I guess I just always assumed that ordinary replicators are small, and can make a nice pair of candlesticks or a cup of tea, but they're too small to really form anything large. Industrial replicators would be freakin' huge, and you would use them to replicate bulldozers or prefabricated buildings or 1000 tonnes of nano-carbon infused aluminum-matrix composite. Not a matter of resolution; just a matter of scale. YMMV.

Re: Heroic Age/Avengers Ongoing Discussion Thread (Spoilers)
I loved the Sinister arc...The Tabula Rasa arc is somewhat interesting but the book is boring and dark, reflecting Scott Summers who has become that. I've long stated that I like the direction that Scott is going and the leader he has evolved into, but he is on a very dangerous path right now. Magneto has a great line in the preview of "Avengers Vs X-Men #1" where he tells Scott that he is starting to sound like him. That promo image from last year of Scott wearing Erik's costume and carrying his helmet has become more and more truer. The line is being blurred from his decisions and he is becoming too single minded and blind about protecting mutantkind to the point where he isn't thinking about the consequences of his actions. Extinction team indeed. Jean would be repulsed with the man he has become I think.

Time for Healing: Somatization among Chronically Mentally Ill Immigrants
Shiroma, Paulo R., Alarcon, Renato D., Journal of Cultural Diversity
Abstract: In a cross-sectional study, we examined demographic factors and acculturation level with somatization among chronically mentally ill groups of immigrants (Russians and Latinos). Ninety Russian and 90 Latino patients attending a university affiliated Day Treatment Program were assessed on somatoform symptoms and acculturation by the 12-item somatization subscale of the SCL-90-R and by a 12- items short acculturation scale, respectively. Higher somatization was significantly associated to women, Russian ethnicity, high school or above level of education, shorter length of residence in the U.S., and lower acculturation. Interaction by ethnic group showed that somatization was influenced by the length of residence in the U.S. among Russians but not among Hispanics. In a multivariate model, higher somatization corresponds to female, Russian, and shorter residence in the U.S. (only among Russians). Length of stay in the host country rather than the level of acculturation influence the frequency of somatic complaints, modified by ethnicity.
Key Words: Somatoform Disorders, Acculturation, Cross-Cultural Comparison, Emigration and Immigration.
Somatization has been broadly defined as the presentation of one or more medically unexplained somatic symptoms (Lipowski,1988) related to substantial emotional stress (Escobar, Burnam, Karno, Forsythe, & Golding,1987), and a powerful coping mechanism for psychosocial stress in many societies (Escobar, Randolph, & Hill, 1986).
In most cultures, the presentation of personal /social distress in the form of somatic complaints is a frequent occurrence (Kleinman,1982), as the perception and expression of emotions as such is not valued and is often stigmatized. Immigrants from around the world experience significantly more stressful life events and psychological distress than members of native populations (Ritsner,Ponizovsky, Kurs, & Modai, 2000). Among them, the phenomenon of somatization as a coping or adapting mechanism seems extremelyand understandably- intense and abundant (Castillo, Waitzkin, Ramirez, & Escobar, 1995).
Studies among different ethnic groups have identified demographic factors related to somatization although without full consistency. Non-married (Canino, Rubio-Stipec, Canino, & Escobar, 1992; Kohn, Flaherty, & Levav, 1989), women (Wool & Barsky, 1994; Piccinelli & Simon,1997), with lower socioeconomic status (Escobar, Rubio-Stipec, Canino, & Karno,1989), and lower level of education (Escobar et al.-, 1989) portray "higher somatizers" immigrants. In addition, certain ethnicities namely Latinos (Escobar, Gomez, & Tuason,1983; Mezzich & Raab,1980), Russians (Kohn et al.,1989), and Chinese (Hsu & Folstein, 1997) are more prone to somatize when compared to Caucasians in the United States.
If somatization were a characteristic of a traditional culture, recent immigrants would manifest more somatic complaints than the more accultura,ted immigrants. Studies in Mexican Americans (Escobar et al., 1989) and Puerto Ricans (Angel & Guarnaccia, 1989) seem to confirm this hypothesis. However, it is unclear whether somatization and acculturation interact in similar fashion among immigrants of different ethnicities and which demographic variables play a role in this phenomenon.
In an analytic cross-sectional study, we examined the possible connection between demographic factors and acculturation level with somatization among two chronically mentally ill groups of immigrants (Russians and Hispanics) traditionally associated with high indices of somatization.
The population attended a university affiliated Day Treatment Program which provides psychiatric care to a large and culturally diverse community mainly composed by Chinese, Southeast Asians, Russians, and Hispanics. Ninety three percent of patients reside in the designated catchment area for the community medical center and essentially referred through the outpatient psychiatric clinic, satellite primary care clinics or after an acute hospitalization. …

LAS CRUCES >> The last time the New Mexico State softball team reached the NCAA Tournament, the Aggies were the No. 1 seed in the conference tournament.
The Aggies close the regular season with a non-conference game at rival New Mexico at 5 p.m., on Tuesday before traveling to Seattle, Wash., for the Western Athletic Conference Tournament, where the Aggies will be the No. 1 seed.
"It's a huge advantage because we play the winner of Utah Valley and Bakersfield and they play and then turn around and have to play us the same day," said Aggies coach Kathy Rodolph, whose team won the 2011 WAC Tournament as the No. 1 seed. "We get to scout that first game."
The Aggies open the WAC tournament on May 8 at 5 p.m., against either No. 4 Utah Valley or No. 5 Bakersfield.
Missouri-Kansas City (No. 2) and Seattle (No. 3) make up the rest of the tournament field, played at Logan Field in Seattle, Wash.
"Everybody was really close going into last weekend," Rodolph said. "Things probably shook out the way they should have according to how everyone played this spring."
The WAC title game is at 1 p.m., on May 10 unless there is an 'if necessary game' to follow.
The Aggies have three seniors who have played in and won a WAC title game, as the Aggies will lean on Kristi Covarrubia, Alyssa Ruiz and pitcher Celisha Walker for their experience.
"Celisha has not been too high or too low all season and that is definitely valuable in the playoffs," Rodolph said.
But before the Aggies can focus solely on the WAC Tournament, they play the Lobos for the second time after losing 4-3 on March 19 at home.
"When we played (Arizona) last week, they are the top hitting team in the country," Rodolph said. "It re-directed us to the level that we have to play at. UNM has some talented hitters. When we are getting ready for the postseason, that is a good thing."
