A Fresh Look at the Straying Ways of the Female Chimp
By NATALIE ANGIER
Published: May 15, 2001
Consider it a serious case of chimp change.
They are not about to win any awards for being chaste homebodies, but female chimpanzees, it seems, are satisfied with chasing after the bodies back home.
In 1997, a startling paper appeared in the journal Nature, reporting that, contrary to the expectations and observations of most primatologists, female chimpanzees were sneaking off and mating furtively with males outside their social set.
Dr. Pascal Gagneux and Dr. David S. Woodruff of the University of California at San Diego, and Dr. Christoph Boesch, then at the University of Basel in Switzerland, announced that their DNA analysis of a community of 52 chimpanzees, living in the Tai forest of Ivory Coast, indicated that more than half the infants they tested had been sired by males outside the community.
The scientists did not know who the mystery fathers were, but they proposed that the females, despite having been observed copulating vigorously with the boys at home, were still dissatisfied enough to seek extragroup mating opportunities. The chimpanzee social unit, apparently, was not equivalent to the chimpanzee reproductive unit.
Moreover, the study suggested that the male chimpanzees' tireless striving for high rank was largely in vain, for alpha-hood appeared to confer very little benefit on males when it came to the basic currency of natural selection: reproductive success. The females seemed to dash off right at the moment of their peak fertility.
The researchers expanded on the study and its implications in a lengthy paper that appeared in the journal Animal Behaviour in 1998.
The unexpected results were widely reported (an article appeared in The Times on May 27, 1997) and soon found their way into books and mainstream lore. ''I meet people who don't know much about chimps, but who say to me, 'Oh, yes, I read that half of infant chimps are not fathered in the group,' '' said Dr. Anne E. Pusey, a behavior ecologist at the University of Minnesota.
Now Dr. Pusey and her co-workers have published a study that completely contradicts the earlier findings. Reporting their results of a DNA study of a community of 39 chimpanzees living in Gombe National Park in Tanzania, the scientists said they could comfortably assign paternity for all 14 offspring they sampled to males within the group.
And far from being an apparent waste of effort, among chimpanzees it pays for a male to seek power: five of the progeny were fathered by alpha males, and another two by high-ranking males. In addition, when the scientists reanalyzed the Tai data using their statistical methods, they were able to match the infants to likely fathers in the Tai troop.
Dr. Pusey reports the results in the current issue of the journal Molecular Ecology, together with a colleague, Dr. Julie E. Constable, Dr. Mary V. Ashley of the University of Illinois at Chicago and Dr. Jane Goodall of the Jane Goodall Institute in Silver Spring, Md. Dr. Goodall has studied the Gombe chimpanzees since the 1960's.
Dr. Gagneux and Dr. Boesch said that while they disagreed with some of the technical methodologies of the new report, as well as with several of the paternity assignments proposed for the Tai progeny, they concurred that their initial analysis was seriously flawed. ''I unfortunately have to agree with them that there seem to be serious problems with my genotyping results,'' Dr. Gagneux said. ''I was not being conservative enough in scoring the genotypes. This is obviously extremely embarrassing to me.''
He added that a new study under way by Dr. Boesch, now at the Max-Planck Institute, together with Dr. Linda Vigilant, an originator of the ''Out of Africa'' theory of human evolution, had also found errors in the original data. And in checking the paternity of infants born more recently in the Tai group, Dr. Gagneux said, Dr. Vigilant has been able to match most to males in the community.
If extragroup paternity occurs, Dr. Gagneux said, ''it's probably pretty rare.''
The latest debacle underscores the difficulty of performing DNA analysis on animals in the field, since they cannot readily be herded up for blood collections. Instead, researchers have struggled to devise effective noninvasive sampling methods. Dr. Gagneux relied on DNA extracted from shed hairs, which contain extremely small quantities of genetic material.
More recently, researchers have succeeded in extracting comparatively larger amounts of DNA from animal feces. When Dr. Constable reported her luck with purifying DNA from bear stools, Dr. Pusey went to her and asked, Can you also do this with chimpanzees? ''I have a gift for getting things to work with problem samples,'' Dr. Constable said.
For the new project, workers at Gombe who were familiar with all the chimpanzees in the community used sterile sticks to collect stool samples as soon as they were deposited, and sent the samples back to Dr. Constable in vials of ethanol. Dr. Constable then extracted the DNA from the stools and amplified them, using a technique called polymerase chain reaction, or P.C.R., the same method that Dr. Gagneux had applied to amplifying the hair DNA.

LAS CRUCES >> James Henry Trotter is a creative lad, an orphan struggling to make a home with his oppressive aunts. His life is transformed when he makes friends with some amazing bugs who join him and a large peach for some incredible adventures.
That's the plot of "James and the Giant Peach," Roald Dahl's classic children's book that became a hit 1996 movie.
This week, New Mexico State University Department of Theater Arts presented the play, dramatized by Richard R. George, to local school kids at seven free performances. Now, the public will have a chance to share the fun at two performances at 5 and 7 p.m. today at the Mark and Stephanie Medoff Theater at NMSU's Center for the Arts at University Avenue and Espina Street.
"We are excited to present this classic in all of its dark, funny, and magical splendor. I think whether you have read the book or seen the film, you will find new and interesting elements in our production," said Josh Chenard, the play's director and sound designer,
The production has offered some fun learning experiences not only for audiences, but for students and faculty in the cast and crew.
Austin Parrish portrays James, Claudia Billings is narrator and the cast also stars Frank Alvarado, Claire Koleske, Lindsey Porter, Robert Sciortino, Lily Staski, Stephanie Vasquez and William Zimmerman.
"I really enjoy just being able to channel my inner child, being awkward with my body and very excited, with a positive mind-set," said Parrish, 20, of Las Cruces, a sophomore majoring in theater arts. "I saw the movie a lot growing up and I think it's a great story anyone can enjoy. It's a fun, fast-paced show, really colorful."
NMSU's resident costume designer Deb Brunson reports that students in a three-dimensional fabrication class created "very ambitious, unique costumes."
In a statement released by NMSU, the play's costume designer Guenevere McMahon said the goal was to be true to the spirit of the tale, which "doesn't talk down to kids but rather speaks to them. Dahl's work is relatable in a world where kids are sometimes treated terribly and he encourages them to become problem-solvers, not in an overly manipulative way where we shove self-esteem down their throats, but meaningfully. So our bugs aren't cutesy cartoons; they're nuanced and creepy and complex. They are clearly actors in costume. We're not tricking kids, but actually want them to see each bug's essential human qualities."
In an interview just before a performance for kids was to begin, Parrish said he was looking forward to working with actors in their finished costumes.
"We just had a costume parades and the costumes are phenomenal. I think they'll be a real surprise for the audience." Parrish said.
The production team includes stage manager Ellie Schwartz, set designer Sam Monrreal, lighting designer Josie Parsons and prop designer Dave Hereford.
NMSU's College of Arts and Sciences will sponsor a reception after the 7 p.m. performance. Get tickets, at $5, at Ticketmaster, at the Center for the Arts and Pan Am box offices, or call 575-646-4515.

FreedomWorks Foundation—together with allies in the limited government movement including the National Taxpayers Union, Tea Party Patriots, and Grassfire—is hosting the 9-12 Taxpayer March on Washington (www.912dc.org). Born largely out of the Tea Party movement, the 9-12 event promises to be a historic gathering of limited government grassroots activists in our nation's capital. Never before have so many conservative activists gathered in Washington, D.C., not to lobby for government intervention or money to feed a special interest pet project, but actually seeking less government interference in their daily lives. A little more than a month away, thousands have already registered, booked travel and hotel accommodations and will be ready that Saturday, September 12 to march down Pennsylvania Avenue to the West Lawn of the Capitol and give the liberal left establishment a piece of their minds.
The March on Washington, not unlike the Tea Party protests of the spring and summer, isn't getting a lot of media attention at the moment. Whether the press comes around and decides to actually cover an event of this size and magnitude remains to be seen. However, if Pelosi and company don't start to take notice, they do so at their own peril.
2010 is right around the corner and with every House seat in play as well as several swing-Senate seats, liberals need to understand that this conservative grassroots renaissance is no freak occurrence, nor is it a passing fad. As they will see for themselves on September 12, a standing army of limited government true believers is coming together. They are actively engaged in the political debate, well-informed, and you can bet that come election time they will be ready to walk neighborhoods and make phone calls knowing full-well who supported the liberal left's big government agenda and who stood fast against it.

There will be no ample cleavage or flashing of the bra today.
After spending a few days enjoying Fashion Week and scoping out some potential wedding venues with her beau Kanye West in Paris, Kim Kardashian has made her way back home after being spotted at Los Angeles International Airport earlier today.
The E! star made sure to stay covered up during her trip today, after suffering a wardrobe malfunction yesterday while at the City of Light. Kim, who arrived at the airport in an all-black ensemble and large coat, showed off a generous amount of cleavage while rocking a silver jumpsuit for the Stephane Rolland fashion show. Yes, it was very sexy, but the plunging neckline, along with flaunting her breasts, also exposed her nude bra.
After the show, Kim and Kanye met up with one of their fashion pals, Riccardo Tisci, who is currently designing for Givenchy, for dinner.
North West's mama shared a picture of Yeezy and Riccardo sitting at a dinner table and wrote, "My guys!" Tisci later posted the same pic and added, "family forever," to the caption.
The engaged duo have been visiting several locations for possible wedding venues while in the beautiful French city. In fact, the two even took a private tour of the Palace of Versailles over the weekend. "Kim in particular is really in love with the place," an insider told E! News exclusively, adding that "Kanye really likes it, too."
Kimye getting married in a palace? Maybe!

Race, Collect , Destroy and Tag your way through over ten fast paced multiplayer minigames! Play with up to four other players or against AI bots across the Internet, via a LAN or local Shared Screen! The game is an attempted revival of the multiplayer madness the team behind it so fondly remember (and still indulge in) brought to the PC and via Steams Big Picture, back onto the living room T.V.
Quick look at the current incarnation of the Tag arena followed by our first team introduction, this one to our 3D artist Shane!
Posted by stray-shadow on May 28th, 2013
Hello again!
Its been a busy day and we have the Tag arena in UDK and coming along nicely! At this rate it will be ready to go much earlier than we had already predicted!
Around the outside are quick renders by me as I was quickly blocking out the level, it changed a fair bit during that process and I thought it would be cool to show you the various iterations it went through.
Thanks o UDK being so easy to work with the level will continue to change as we test until it is the best it can be!
Things are going well, we're on track for budget and time. I have also been digging up our old XNA prototype to grab a bit of video from so everyone can get a better understanding of the gameplay and maybe release the prototype for you to enjoy! (hopefully!).
On the 31st we have a meeting with Creative England, the people behind Starter for 10, to show them what we have so far, which given the progress we've made, should be a pretty fun meeting!
As previously promised, lets meet a team member!
Today the spotlight is on our 3D artist Shane!
I first came across Shane several years ago when I was attempting to mod Source games and we've remained friends ever since.
In his own words;
I started my journey into game development as a 2D concept artist on a mod for Star Wars: Empire at War. The years went by and slowly I dived into 3D art and instantly fell in love with the three dimensional side of game development.
My first major project was a Half Life 2 mod called Outbreak: Condemned which gathered a fantastic fanbase and interest from many different countries, even China!Sadly time and the need to move on with my freelance work put Outbreak: Condemned into hibernation.
I have known Jonathan for a while now and it was just a matter of time before we got our heads down and worked on a project together. The experience is great and we are faced with new exciting challenges each day, helping me as an artist improve and gain valuable experience for whatever the future holds.

Barking Blondes: Crufts, poodles in curlers and wet dog smell
Its Crufts at the Birmingham NEC this weekend and we paid a visit on Thursday. Hoping to be fresh for our radio broadcast the following day, we stayed in one of the many hotels on site. If your budget can stretch this far, we reckon this is actually the best bit.
Walking into the lobby, we were confronted by a pair of poodles in curlers with a hair dryer, two afghan hounds in raincoats and an open lift with three blood hounds waiting to ascend to the third floor. A perfect start to the event!
Thursday was drizzly so the stench was powerful. The smell of wet dog has been voted by a well known commercial air freshener manufacturer as Britains least favourite smell.
But not for us dog lovers… it's as invigorating as a mountain stream. Besides, it lured us like a beacon through the peril of Spaghetti Junction. We had only been on air a few minutes when a caller, questioning our reason for broadcasting from Crufts, asked "Do you two not feel guilty attending this dog beauty pageant? Do you not consider the plight of pedigree dogs? And their health?" This year this is the question on many lips.
BBC's Pedigree Dogs Exposed revealed in 2008, that many breeds do suffer from congenital illnesses such as hip dysplasia, the onset of premature blindness, kidney disorders epilepsy and breathing problems. Also some pedigree dogs have a higher propensity for cancer. This is a pretty bleak scenario.
The Animal Health Trust has a large presence at Crufts. They are working together with The Kennel Club, combining science and technology, in order to assist the health of future generations of pedigree dogs. By introducing tests for certain hereditary conditions such as PRA in poodles, ligament problems in Labradors, breeders can now test for genetic disorders prior to breeding. Another service called Mate Select facilitates a genetic diversity to be assessed, ahead of a planned litter.
It's the Kennel Club's new online service that helps breeders choose prospective 'partners' for their dogs, and determine the genetic impact of this 'partnership' virtually, before proceeding. It allows extra planning and conscientious breeding for genetic diversity and health tests parents.
If you attend Crufts with the thought of taking on a dog, research your breeder and your breed. It's unadvisable to buy a puppy from a local newspaper advert or online, dog breeding in this country is not legislated. And back-street breeders, or puppy farmers mass produce puppies for money alone, and have no interest in animal welfare let alone health testing.
There is little regulation over dog breeding in this country. The Kennel Club, and its Assured Breeder scheme is unique in offering guidelines, services and veterinary advice on health in the breed standards. It's the perfect place to look for a breeder leaving you confident that you'll be buying a puppy that's health tested.
Pedigrees come in all shapes, sizes, coat types, and personality. It's their heritage, often centuries old that makes them special. And people do get 'hooked' onto a certain breed. Cross breeds with quirky names like 'Porki, Puggle, CockerPoo, and Jackawawa are no less likely to have health issues and might inherit health problems from both parents.
A Labradoodle sold as being 'hypoallergenic' may take the Labrador's coat gene and then actually ends up in a rescue centre because the pup moulted like a Labrador. The soaring dander levels and extra hoovering was not what was expected. These owners might have been better off choosing a non shedding breed like the Standard Poodle in the first place.
Lets hope science and responsible breeding ensures the health of breeds we have loved and grown up with.

Continued fractionsin -stage Euclidean quadratic fields
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: We discuss continued fractions on real quadratic number fields of class number . If the field has the property of being -stage euclidean, a generalization of the euclidean algorithm can be used to compute these continued fractions. Although it is conjectured that all real quadratic fields of class number are -stage euclidean, this property has been proven for only a few of them. The main result of this paper is an algorithm that, given a real quadratic field of class number , verifies this conjecture, and produces as byproduct enough data to efficiently compute continued fraction expansions. If the field was not -stage euclidean, then the algorithm would not terminate. As an application, we enlarge the list of known -stage euclidean fields, by proving that all real quadratic fields of class number and discriminant less than are -stage euclidean.

Lovely in lemon: Blake Lively brightens up the night in yellow gown at Savages premiere
She's appeared at her fair share of movie premieres and galas in her 24 years, and already it seems actress Blake Lively has mastered the red carpet.
The blonde beauty stole the show once again at tonight's New York premiere of her new movie Savages.
Blake turned on the glamour in a canary yellow chiffon gown by Gucci and statement turquoise earrings.
Making the canary sing: Blake Lively attends the Savages premiere at SVA Theater in New York City on Wednesday night in a stunning Gucci gown
The halter dress featured a deep V-neck and fit the actress' slender waist perfectly, draping to the floor in an elegant fashion.
The lemon colour complimented her bronzed complexion and blonde hair, which was pulled up into a fishtail braid.
Blake accessorised her look with chunky turquoise earrings and a miss-matched set of bangles for a bit of fun.
A lash of pink lipstick and highlighter gave her face a radiance adored by the cameras.
Glamour queen: The 24-year-old actress paired the dress with turquoise accents
With the boys: Blake was radiant on the red carpet, posing with co-stars Taylor Kitsch, John Travolta, and director Oliver Stone
Glowing good looks: The actress swept her blonde locks up into a fishtail braid and went for natural make-up with a swipe of pink lipstick
Her choice of dress was poignant as she was named the face of Gucci's new fragrance, Gucci Première, just last week.
Blake was joined on the red carpet by Savages co-stars John Travolta, Taylor Kitsch and director Oliver Stone.
She fit right in with the boys, swinging her arms around their shoulders as they smiled for photographers.
While Stone and Kitch were dapper in black suits and white collared shirts for the premiere, Travolta paired down his look with jeans and a blazer, adding a bit of punch with a striped button down and polka dot tie.
Blake, meanwhile, has ramped up the glamour during her promotional duties for the movie.
Reunited on the red carpet: Blake traded laughs with director Oliver Stone as they posed for photographers ahead of the premiere
Dressed down: Actress Rosie Perez, right, and John Travolta, who co-stars in the film with Blake, took a more relaxed approach
Ole! Salma Hayek scored in this black and white sheer dress
Sizzling: Salma also looked great in a tight black shift with cream bib as she arrived at Good Morning America earlier in the day
Earlier today she was seen arriving at Good Morning America's studio in a stylish scarlet Michael Kors suit and black Christian Louboutin heels.
The night before she stepped out in a corset style Zuhair Murad couture tan gown with black linear detail - red lipstick and bombshell curls completing the look.
The star's stunning style is made all the more impressive by the fact that, unlike other Hollywood stars, she has no personal stylist to help her with her red carpet looks.
She recently told Marie Claire: 'My assistant will call fashion houses for me, but I always pick the outfit, shoes, jewellery, and a lot of times I do my own hair and make-up for events. 'Sometimes I think, God, why do I do this to myself? It's so much extra work.'
Red hot: Blake arrived this morning for an interview on Good Morning America in New York in another eye-catching ensemble
Blake told the U.S. publication that she likes to do her own styling because she 'loves fashion.'
'It's such an expression of self,' she added. 'I often see people and they look great, but I can identify who styled them. Every stylist has a signature.
Blake also co-stars in Savages with Salma Hayek, who plays Elena - the leader of a Mexican drug cartel who kidnaps Blake's character Ophelia in the Oliver Stone movie.
The fledgling actress earlier today opened up about working with the acclaimed writer and director.
Speaking on GMA this morning, she said: 'It was such an honour. He is so intense and passionate and he just expects so much out of you, but he provided us with so much information,' she said.
'We met the DEA, we met ex-cartel members, I sat down with a young woman who had been kidnapped by the cartel, so he gave us this incredible well of knowledge and the responsibility to tell this story in a truthful way.'
Savages is out in the US on July 6 and will be released in the UK in September.

Where do we go from here??
I surely wouldnt have a baby. How long have you been engaged? I would think if he is skyping other women, its not just platonic. There must be something going on. I would talk to him about it. If he won't open up, then I would think about calling off the engagement. If he acts like this now, it will only get worse if yoou get married or have a kid.
Talk to him. Tell him how hurt and disrespected you feel.
Living with him, taking care of him like you are, shagging him, and now he wants to have a baby before you two get married or set a date? Sounds like he wants YOU to be with HIM but he doesn't want to BE with YOU, know what I mean? He wants a doting wife who will take care of him, raise his children, and keep his house clean but he wants the freedom of being single.
In short, he wants a mother. Dont be his mother.
Sounds to me like he wants to have a baby with you and the baby is the insurance plan for him that you'll always be around. I'd be afraid, after once having his baby, that he would use the child to control you into doing things he wants from you or even keeping you together with him. Don't let him do that and definitely don't let him do that to your future child if you were to have one with him.
He sounds selfish and controlling. I would leave him. It's hard to see those things but that's why you asked for advice right?

Good ol' mundane CorelDRAW X5.
Well, you guys all do great work. Now excuse my ignorance, as I don't work around photo editing or anything like that, but do you two (and anyone else who wants to share) "draw" those ships from scratch or do you use templates?
The reason I am asking is if there are templates involved, I would like to know so that maybe I can start learning on my own and create some ships myself. I would probably want to start out with 2-d, first, I imagine. So if you have any tips, I would be interested in your expertise, that is if you care to share it. If not, totally fine.
Personally, I draw everything from scratch. I do sometimes have reference pictures that I draw over or refer to, but the final product is all-new. Once I've done that, I may use my new file as a template of sorts for derivative works (see my Galileo thread for an example), but that template was still my own work.

Electric Shock (cont.)
Electric Shock Self-Care at Home
Brief low-voltage shocks that do not result in any symptoms or burns of the skin do not usually require medical care (if you or the affected individual are unsure about symptoms, seek medical care). For any high-voltage shock, or for any shock resulting in burns, call 911 and seek medical care at a hospital's emergency department. A doctor should evaluate electric cord burns to the mouth of a child.

This component has been obsoleted by the ReplayGain scanner bundled with foobar2000 version 1.1.6.
I have produced a scanner interface almost entirely from scratch, based on libebur128. Basic information and a binary are posted here, and the full source is posted here, but I warn you, it isn't pretty.
It writes -18 - LUFS to the normal ReplayGain track and album gain level tags, and optionally scans for the "true" peak by resampling the signal to 192KHz first, using the foobar2000 resampler service, but this is disabled by default because it has a pretty heavy speed cost.
No attempt is made to support reading or writing the EBU R128 "standard" of tags proposed in this topic, because that is beyond the scope of a mere scanner component. The player core must first support representing that information internally with its binary ReplayGain information structures, and then every input component that supports reading and/or writing tags must be modified to support these changes.

foo_r128scan already logs in full double precision floating point values, but display and possibly tags are limited to two significant decimal places. I don't know where you are seeing these five significant digits of ReplayGain data, but the current version uses the same fixed two digits in the SDK when converting the floating point gain values to text for writing tags.

India's aviation safety rating downgrade could have cascading effects
By Stephen B Huttler, Jennifer E Trock, Moushami P Joshi, Kenneth P Quinn and Sanjay Jose Mullick
On 31 January 2014, the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) downgraded India's aviation safety rating to Category 2 under the FAA's International Aviation Safety Assessment (IASA) programme — a programme designed to ensure safety oversight by foreign aviation authorities in accordance with applicable International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards and recommended practices.
FAA's foreign assessment programme focuses on a country's ability, not the individual air carrier's, to adhere to ICAO's standards and recommended practices for aircraft operations and maintenance, largely under Annex 6 of the Chicago Convention. The downgrade, which came after years of consultations with the FAA, serves as a stark reminder to governments undergoing IASA and ICAO reviews to promptly and comprehensively address concerns before their status is downgraded.
For India's civil aviation authority, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), the downgrade begins what could be a protracted process to restore India's Category 1 rating and demonstrate its safety oversight capabilities. For India's air carriers, the downgrade means they cannot add new service or aircraft to the US and may be subjected to heightened oversight by the FAA until Category 1 status is restored. The determination has similar impacts on US airlines placing their code on flights operated by Indian airlines, as the FAA does not support code sharing between US carriers and carriers of Category 2 countries. While not likely, if India fails to correct deficiencies within a reasonable period of time, the FAA can recommend that the US Department of Transportation (DOT) revoke or suspend the operating authority of all Indian carriers operating to the US…

Happy New Year's everyone! We hope you all had a great time ringing in 2010, perhaps such a great time that you could use some relief. Luckily, we've rounded up the best books to cure your hangover, including some helpful tips. So get out that raw egg, turn off your coffee pot, open another beer. Here's some help for bouncing back -- if not today, at least by Monday.
DON'T CHUG COFFEE IN THE MORNING: "This old villain may well help to wake you up, but it contains caffeine (a diuretic), which will increase dehydration and irritate your stomach further. If you need a stimulant, try ginseng. If you are a regular coffee drinker, however, you may want to administer a small dose of caffeine -- there's no need to suffer from two drug withdrawals at the same time!"
MORE BOOZE...AND FISH: "Famous English diarist Samuel Pepys (pronounced 'Peeps') had a boozy breakfast cure for hangovers, such as the one he served his suffering guests on New Year's morning 1661: 'A barrel of oysters, a dish of neats' tongues, a dish of anchovies, wine of all sorts, and Northdowne Ale.' "
THE APOTHECARY COCKTAIL: "Italian ingredients Punt e Mes and Fernet Branca combine with a creamy mint flavour to calm the stomach. 3cl Fernet Branca 3cl white crème de menthe 3cl Punt e Mes Pour all ingredients into a mixing glass with ice. Stir well. Strain into a cocktail glass."
BARTENDER'S CURES: Banana Cow, Suffering Bastard, and 45 recipes for juices and smoothies.
THE TIP IS ON THE COVER. Not working for you, eh?
OPEN REFRIGERATOR, CHUG ORANGE JUICE. Run to bathroom.
SINCE THE BARS IN SAN FRANCISCO STOP SERVING AT 2AM, bartenders have plenty of time to see their customers begin to suffer before daylight.
YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL 2011's ROUND UP. This will be published in September 2010

March: Good Month or Bad Month?
Id like to see the industry do a product freeze for just a year so that instead of looking to the future all the time they could reflect, enjoy whats been created to far and naturally figure out what the next big step is. Im all fo shiny new bits as most of us are magpies to some degree but the continuous foie gras approach of the industry will also be its undoing.

WAKi-bikes of the Future: CannonRail Jeronimo 2020
Good question. The idea of the lefty is similar to a macpherson strut that you find in most sports cars. The rigidity is infact stronger than the convensional bridged Forks you find on the market today as it uses needle rollers inside the stanchion as opposed to the seals used by say Fox. In essence the stanchion is circular but underneath it's square giving more strength, coupled with cannondales dual crown it has gone through tests that make it stronger than most dh forks and lighter than most Am forks . The internals are infact made by RS so there dampers are part of why there so good also. Hope this helps

The bike as you can see has pretty much no stock parts on it, this is due partially to some parts that came with the bike not being up to my specifications and also if bearings went etc. The bike itself is in brilliant condition and having no dents or dings anywhere, the only area that i need to mention is on the right seat stay near the top where my foot has rubbed against the paint and caused it to rub away but this is purely cosmetic and not that big ( see last photo ). Every part on the bike works as it should and has been serviced regularly, the bike in itself to ride is superb and handles like a dream, it has great climbing ability and for the travel it holds it feels more in line with a trail sized bike by comparison, in descent you will not find many better, it honestly feels like a really nimble dh bike, it can plough through stuff if you want and at the same time be nimble and sharp in the corners. You may have noticed that the rear Fox DRCV shock has a different colour shaft, this is down to me getting it custom tuned from TF Tuned back in May this year, to give you the lowdown it for all intense and purposes is the same shock but its shaft has been changed to an extra slippery Push shaft plus the internal have been set up so that the shock is more progressive in its ride, you'll notice a big difference if you have ridden a DRCV before, essentially just improving on what was an already wicked shock, i have also included two different shim stacks that you can easily fit to customise it for you ride. Sizing, i personally am 6" 2' and it fits me fine but i would say if your between 5"10' and 6"3' you'll be fine. Thankyou for looking, any questions please feel free to mail me Collection is person only although would be happy if local to drop off within 10 miles of Port Talbot. Cash on collection Please note this item is listed elsewhere

Out of all the top athletes out there it's only Greg minnaar I can think of who isn't sponsored by monster/RB/Rockstar etc. not because he can't get the gig but because he chooses not to endorse a product that actually hinders a sportsman. I'm sure we can all relate to the times when you've taken a swig of the Green death pre uplift, get to the top buzzzzzzzzing and then Mong mode kicks in. Kudos to Minnaar I'm Alex and I'm a monsterholic, I've been clean for 5 weeks and I'm ok.

Ok, I genuinely own that model and I can tell you that it might as well be a vw so I wouldn't get all so judgey with the guy above. the chassis is the same as a vw polo, seat ibiza and audi a1, the engine block still has vw/audi stamped onto it, the satnav, optional extras are all the same as vdub. I've been in the equiv vw, seat not audi and they ARE pretty much the same car give or take certain models I.e sports sus, dsg gearbox blah blah blah.

EU to add 16 names to Belarus sanctions list; Another 29 Iranians targeted over rights; Syrian Commercial Bank to be added to target list
October 9, 2011 6:00 by Reuters
The European Union is to extend sanctions on Belarus, Iran and Syria next week in response to crackdowns on opposition movements and other rights violations, EU officials and diplomats said on Friday.
EU foreign ministers meeting in Luxembourg on Monday will add 16 names to a list of Belarusian officials targeted by asset freezes and travel bans and discuss extending such steps to some Belarusian businesses, the sources said.
The ministers will also add 29 names to a list of 32 Iranians targeted by similar measures due to their association with serious human rights violations.
Officials and diplomats said that on Monday an EU committee would endorse an agreement in principle to add the Syrian Commercial Bank to a sanctions list. The sanctions would involve an asset freeze and a bar on European firms from doing business with it, a step that would take effect later in the week.
Earlier this week a source incorrectly identified the bank in question as the Syrian central bank.
The new sanctions on Belarus will mainly target judges and state lawyers involved in the detention of leading human rights activist Ales Belyatsky in August, an EU diplomat said.
The sanctions will bring the number of officials in Belarus targeted by EU sanctions to more than 200. Many EU states have been pushing to extend the sanctions to target business entities, but this has been resisted by some Eastern European members, a diplomat said.
European governments have pushed strongly in recent months to step up economic pressure on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the hope of ending six months of violence against anti-government demonstrators. EU officials say the aim is to block the Assad government's access to funds.
Last month, the EU banned European firms from making new investments in Syria's oil industry. The EU also banned the delivery of Syrian banknotes and coins produced in the European Union.
Before that, the EU banned the import of Syrian crude oil and froze the assets of several Syrian companies and entities. The EU has also imposed travel bans and asset freezes on officials involved in the crackdown.
Earlier this week Russia and China blocked a Western-backed UN Security Council resolution that could have led to broader sanctions against Syria.
EU officials said the EU was increasingly worried about the use of the death penalty in Iran, including against minors.
The US State Department has said Iran executed about 312 people in 2010, many after trials conducted in secret. In many cases people executed for supposedly criminal offences were actually political dissidents, the department said in a report.
EU sanctions on Iran focus mostly on economic and trade measures aiming to force Iran to slow its nuclear programme, which Tehran says serves peaceful purposes but Western powers believe is aimed at producing weapons. (Reporting by David Brunnstrom; editing by Sebastian Moffett)

Apartment 2g: THE place in town
This is an amazing place. We were staying at a local B&B and the owner recommended Apartment 2g and made reservations for us. When we got there, we were a little thrown off by the different doors to the building, then pleasantly surprised. Apparently, the chefs and owners of 2g (David and Stacy Gedney--- who have previously worked at both the Ashby Inn AND the Inn at Little Washington) not only do they own Apartment 2g, but also a quaint but impressive wine shop and ANOTHER restaurant (Element: sort of a modern bar and bistro type place)... all of which are in the same building, each with its own entrance from the street. I wish we had realized this sooner, it would have made a fun evening if we had done a little wine shopping then went over to Element for drinks before going upstairs to Apartment 2g for dinner.
Once we went up the squeaky old stairs, we were amazed. The restaurant feels like the apartments it used to be. We sat in a small room with only two other tables, big windows that overlooked the street, and paintings and photographs by local artists scattered about the walls. There was even a TV in the corner.
As it says on the menu, "Apartment 2g is an open invitation to the chef's 'apartment.' Come hang out in the kitchen or watch the meal come together from the privacy of your table." And it's true. Every so often I would glance up to the corner and watch as David would zoom his way around the kitchen preparing our meal and those of the rest of their guests.
The food was amazing, and the wine too. We don't know too much about wine, but we saw some Virginia wines on the list and thought it might be fun to try something local. We asked the waitress for a recommendation and since we like light red wines and she brought us a bottle of Linden's claret. It was great and went very well with my meal.
The service was good too: very friendly and efficient, but a less formal than I had originally expected.
It was a Friday night, which means the menu was a 5-course Prix Fixe, but the waitress told me that they served Spanish-style tapas on Wednesday and Thursday nights and the Prix Fixe on Friday and Saturday nights, and that they make changes to the menu every week.
The first course was unlisted: chicken croquettes. This was followed by shrimp risotto, arugula salad with goat cheese and chili grape dressing. We then had a choice of three entrees: filet mignon with potato onion pie and spinach (which I had and enjoyed greatly), pork chop with mustard greens, potatoes, and sweet mustard glaze, and halibut with warm orzo chic pea salad and swiss chard (which my wife had and I stole a bit of-- it was amazing too). It was easy to remember exactly what we had, because they let us keep the menu since we were celebrating our anniversary. Then dessert was the perfect ending to the evening. We each had cappuccinos, while I had the deliciously rich chocolate pave and my wife had the mexican chocolate cake, a flour-less chocolate cake that is apparently a popular favorite.
All things considered, it was a great experience. I definitely recommended this place to anyone visiting the area. But be sure to make reservations. We saw another couple turned away because the restaurant was full.

Applebees: Ugh
I usually don't worry about reviewing chain restaurants, but I had to after this experience. We ate at Applebees in Waynesboro (just south of the park). Their new section of the menu refers to a Steakhouse experience. Any steakhouse that would serve the piece of meat Applebees did would shut down in days. It was rubbery and full of gristle. The service and atmosphere were fine, but what a terrible meal! Avoid Applebees if you are hungry for steak.
Artisan grill- Luray VA: Art and Eats
In downtown Luray, Va we ate at the Artisan Grill which is located on a corner next to an art gallery (hence the name).
Most of the menu items were named after famous artists. I had the Gaugin sandwich- basil, fresh mozzarella, tomato and Balsamic vinegar. Dave ate a blue cheese burger. The food was decent ;nothing really special.. Both of our breads with our meal were falling apart.
Favorite Dish: Peanutbutter swirl ice cream cone
Inn at Little Washington: One of the country's (world's?) best inns
Near Shenandoah is the Inn at Little Washington, known as one of the world's best inns and restaurants. I needn't say anything more - far greater lights than I will tell you about it. Not a casual experience - dinner reservations are highly recommended, and the fare is steep - $128 per person minimum.
Burgers n' Things: Nice Change from Concessions Food
If you're in the Thornton Gap area of the Skyline Drive, and need a burger fix, check out Burgers n' Things down in Sperryville. A little roadside stand, with outdoor picnic tables, it's not fancy by any stretch. But after a hard day hiking, this is perfect place to get a burger and shake fix, and it's cheap.
A few miles west of the Thornton Gap entrance station on Route 211.
Favorite Dish: It's a classic burger stand, cheeseburgers, shakes, fries, chicken wings. Pull up a picnic table next to the creek, and enjoy.
South River Restaurant
A nice casual restaurant. The South River Restaurant has an American style menu. It is popular among the locals.
Favorite Dish: Filet Mignon

AU prides itself on diversity, but in reality the student population feels very homogenous.
AU is one of the most diverse schools ever, statistically. But personality-wise, everyone is pretty much the same, with the same goals, so it's very competitive. But you'll find people of all kinds of sexuality, gender, race, religion, and political beliefs. But students tend to all lean towards either academics or partying, with not a lot of artists or athletes in the mix.
Lot's of different religions, sexual orientation and international students.
Diversity is better than average. However, AU has many problems in regard to being more helpful toward students with disabilities. If you have even a minor disability I would consider another school or some HEAVY research before accepting AU. And while the general student body is diverse, the friend groups are not. Black christians still mostly hang out with other black christians and white atheists hang out with other white atheists, etc. This is not necessarily a bad thing but socially AU is less diverse than they would have you think.
Most people are very accepting, or at least know that they are supposed to be.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
AU has one of the most diverse student bodies in the nation, with students from all 50 states and a very high international population. Students come from all different ethnic, family, and religious backgrounds. Very few students are awarded scholarships because AU is not overly generous with handing out financial aid packages. Although there are some students on full scholarships at AU, most students are from wealthy or middle-class families.
The female population outweighs the male population, and there are a number of gay and lesbian students. The majority of girls at AU complains that there are not enough eligible guys to date.
