President Jakaya Kikwete finally reshuffled his cabinet yesterday, leaving out six cabinet ministers and two deputy ministers, ending week-long tension that gripped the nation.
The reshuffle came following intense pressure from both the ruling party and opposition legislators, who had threatened to cast a vote of no confidence in the Prime Minister, Mizengo Pinda, if the embattled former ministers were not removed from their positions.
Those who lost the president's confidence are minister for Finance Mustafa Mkullo, who has been replaced by a new face, Dr. William Mgimwa; William Ngeleja, whose position has been taken over by a new appointee, Professor Sospeter Muhongo, and minister for Transport, Omari Nundu, who has been replaced by Dr Harrison Mwakyembe, who has been promoted from the ministry of Works where he was a deputy minister.
Other ministers who have been shown the exit door is minister for Natural Resources and Tourism Ezekiel Maige, whose portfolio has been filled in by former deputy minister for Home Affairs Khamis Kagasheki; Industry and Trade minister Cyril Chami, who has vacated for another new appointee, Dr Abdallah Kigoda, and minister for Health and Social Welfare Haji Mponda, a position now handed over to Dr Hussein Mwinyi, immediate former minister for Defence and at one time deputy minister for Health.
President Kikwete told a news conference at the State House in Dar es Slaam yesterday that he had decided to make the changes upon receiving a report on the heated debate in the national Assembly during the April seating in Dodoma, where seven ministers were strongly accused of being irresponsible, resulting in the country losing billions of shillings through malpractices, including embezzlement and outright theft.
"I received the report on what transpired in the House in Dodoma. We have concluded that two of the accused ministers be shifted to other ministries," he noted.
He affirmed: "We have decided that the ministers are being held responsible politically, but sometimes the ministers face such action without themselves having been involved in the misdeeds. So, we have decided that executives whose actions have resulted in the ministers vacating their posts will also be shown the door, be they chief executive officers or directors. We'll get rid of them."
President Kiwete also said that the government was mulling dividing the ministry of Energy and Minerals into two, but said it had concluded that it wan untimely to do so now due to budgetary constraints.
Although the head of state hinted that there was no increase in the cabinet size, by appointing Profesor Mark Mwandosya as minister without portfolio cabinet ministers are now 30 instead of the previous 29, while the number of deputy ministers is now 25 instead of the previous 21, thus bringing the entire cabinet to 55 compare to the previous 50.
Two deputy ministers who also faced the wrath of the head of state are Dr. Lucy Nkya, who was at the Health ministry, as well as Athuman Mfutakamba at the ministry of Transport.
Apart from Mwakyembe and Kagasheki's promotions the president has also promoted Christopher Chiza from deputy to full minister at the ministry of Agriculture, Food Security and Cooperatives, as well as Dr Fenella Mukangara, who will now head the ministry of Information, Youth, Culture and Sports.
President Kikwete has also appointed ten new deputy ministers including Dr Seif Suleiman Rashid (Health and Social Welfare), George Simbachawene and Stephen Maselle (Energy and Minerals), January Makamba (Communication, Science and Technology), Dr Charles Tizeba (Transport), Amos Makala (Information, Youth Culture and Sports), Dr Binilith Mahenge (Water), Angela Kairuki (Constitution and Legal Affairs) and (Janeth Mbene as well as Saada Mkuya Salum (both Finance)
There are nine changes for senior ministers who have been recycled from one ministry to another. They include Georger Mkuchika, former minister for Local Government and Regional Administration, who becomes minister of State in the President's Office responsible for Good Governance, and Celina Kombani, who now moves to the President's Office – Civil Service Management. Kombani was minister for Constitution and Legal Affairs. Hawa Ghasia, former minister for Civil Service Management now is a minister in the Prime Minister's Office in charge of Local Government and Regional Administration.
Shamsi Vuai Nahodha becomes new minister for Defence and national Service from the ministry of Home Affairs, which will now be led by Dr. Emmanuel Nchimbi, previous minister for Information, Youth Culture and Sports, and Mathias Chikawe, new minister for Constitution and Legal Affairs.
Others involved in the changes include Professor Jumanne Maghembe, new minister for Water from the ministry of Agriculture, Food Security and Cooperatives, whereas Professor Mark Mwandosya becomes minister without portfolio.
Deputy ministers who have been shifted are Adam Malima, who becomes new deputy for Agriculture, from Energy and Minerals; Pereira Silima, who moves to Home Affairs from Finnce, and Gregory Teu, new deputy for Industry and Trade from the ministry of Finance
Those who retained their positions are Stephene Wassira (President Office – Civil Society Relations and Co-ordiation); Samia Suluhu Hassan (Vice-President's Office – Union Affairs); Mary Nagu (Prime Minister's Office- Investiment and Empowerment), and William Lukuvi (Prime Minister's Office – Policy, Co- ordination and National Assembly).

Central Maine Power says its finances - and its customers - will be spared any negative fallout from the recent credit downgrade suffered by Spanish parent company Iberdrola. Standard and Poor's, one of the three big ratings agencies, lowered Iberdrola's credit grade late Wednesday to two notches above junk bond status, due to turmoil in Spain's economy and the company's ongoing debt struggles. But at the same time, the ratings agency has also affirmed CMP's credit rating. Jay Field explains.
Officials at Central Maine Power have known for months now that Iberdrola's credit rating was under review.
"And we've actually been taking steps for the past couple of months to make some provisions, so that we would create some separation between CMP and the Iberdrola rating," says John Carroll, the utility's spokesman. Carroll says CMP is trying to strengthen a set of financial protections called "ring fencing."
"We filed with the Public Utilities Commission to enhance some of the protections for our equity," he says. "What those steps ensure is that the equity in CMP will remain largely in CMP. It really protects us and our rate payers from the potential that Iberdrola would withdraw equity from Central Maine Power."
The Spanish utility, based in Bilbao, has been beset by debt problems. Just last month, Iberdrola released a strategic plan that mapped out a strategy for reducing its financial obligations. The plan won praise from analysts at Standard and Poor's. But those same analysts also had some serious concerns.
About 47 percent of Iberdrola's revenues, for example, come from its Spanish operations. And analysts worry the ongoing turmoil roiling Spain's economy could cause those revenues to decline. So late Wednesday, Standard and Poor's downgraded Iberdrola's credit rating, leaving it just a couple notches above junk bond status.
Matthew O'Neil is an associate at Standard and Poor's in New York. "Generally, our criteria would call for the ratings of the subsidiaries to go down with the parent," O'Neil says.
But in this case, says O'Neil, Standard and Poor's decided to affirm Central Maine Power's credit rating due to the utility's moves to protect its equity. The agency did, however, issue a "negative" future outlook on CMP's rating.
"And we have the negative outlook due to the fact that the parent ratings were lowered and if they don't put the stronger ring fencing measures in place, then we would lower the rating," O'Neil says.
Maine's public advocate, meantime, has been working with CMP officials to make sure the company is able to complete the process of putting these protections in place. Richard Davies says he's confident that consumers will be protected, should Iberdrola try to extract equity from CMP.
"We've seen nothing so far that would suggest that consumers in Maine need to be concerned," Davies says. "We will be watching it closely. We think those protections are pretty strong."
CMP, meantime, says its parent's problems will not hurt its ability to borrow money for short term operating costs, or for long-term capital projects like the $1.5 billion Maine Power Reliability Program, the largest transmission project in state history.

Since the mid-1990s, home heating costs have increased as a result of an overall rise in energy costs. During this period energy cost increases have outpaced the ability of many low-income consumers to adequately heat their home.
Because more than half (54 percent) of older households in the United States use natural gas as their primary heating fuel, changes in the price of natural gas tend to have the biggest influence on the heating costs of older consumers.

LONDON (AP) — J.J. Abrams is master of one universe — and he's about to try conquering another.
The director who rebooted "Star Trek" for a new generation, sending the USS Enterprise out again to explore strange new worlds, has also been put at the "Star Wars" helm. Soon he'll direct a new film, the seventh, in the epic sci-fi franchise.
So while Abrams is in London to talk about his second "Trek" feature, "Star Trek Into Darkness" — releasing in U.S. theaters on May 17 — the topic inevitably drifts to a galaxy far, far away.
"I feel preposterously lucky," said Abrams, a self-declared "Star Wars" fanboy.
"I do feel at the core this incredible disbelief that I'm actually even answering questions at all about my involvement in something that until fairly recently I didn't even know was going to come back as a series. And now I get to be involved in it."
Just how involved, he says, remains to be seen.
Abrams' "Star Wars: Episode VII" is part of big plans for The Walt Disney Co., which bought George Lucas' Lucasfilm empire last year for $4.05 billion. The company is planning three sequels and two stand-alone spinoff movies focusing on characters from the "Star Wars" universe.
Will Abrams direct the entire new trilogy? Will he be involved in any of the spinoffs? Will George Lucas play a mentoring role? He can't say.
"I never see myself doing anything more than what's in front of me," Abrams said — one film, due for release in 2015 and scripted by "Little Miss Sunshine" screenwriter Michael Arndt.
"What the approach is going to be remains to be discussed, because it's in process," he said. "So it's a weird thing to be talking about. If I'm charging down the court dribbling the ball, it's hard to comment on the layup that's about to take place.
"I feel like the ball is just getting passed to me now, to complete the annoying metaphor."
But it's a suitably energetic metaphor for the prolific creator of TV shows, including "Felicity," "Alias" and "Lost," director of films "Mission: Impossible III" and "Super 8" and owner of Bad Robot, the film and television production company whose upcoming projects include a movie about disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong.
Compact and voluble, in natty black-framed spectacles and a dark jacket, 46-year-old Abrams is the epitome of the geek made good.
By his own admission, though, he has never been much of a "Star Trek" fan. Roberto Orci, a producer and writer on both Abrams' "Star Trek" movies, says — with mock-horror — that the director "didn't even know that Spock was half-human."
Abrams' distance may actually have been an asset. The "Star Trek" reboot works because it speaks to fans and newcomers alike. It's the work of a director who was not overawed by "Star Trek's" mythology or bogged down in its lore.
"I think a lot of sequels make this weird mistake, which is that they assume you care," Abrams said. "They assume you know about the world or the characters.
"The approach to 'Star Trek,' especially for 'Into Darkness,' was to make a standalone movie.
"You never have to have seen our first film or the original series. It's its own thing. If you have, you'll be rewarded, but you don't have to."
Abrams' characters are drawn directly from the original series, led by impulsive, cocksure Capt. James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) and uber-logical Vulcan first officer Spock (Zachary Quinto). But the filmmakers gave themselves freedom to play with character and plot, thanks to some alternate-universe sleight of hand.
"Star Trek Into Darkness" picks up where the first film left off, with the crew of the Starship Enterprise in the midst of a high-octane outer space adventure. Then a personal crisis shakes Kirk's confidence, and a terrorist attack shatters Starfleet. Soon the crew are off in pursuit of a villain — played with muscular menace by "Sherlock" star Benedict Cumberbatch — who may be an ally, or the enemy within.
Treats for fans of the original series are scattered about like Easter eggs — there's the return of an iconic character, even a tribble.
"Star Trek Into Darkness" retains the thread of social commentary that ran through the 1960s original, asking how far is it morally acceptable to go in waging a war on terror. But the film, shot in almost overwhelming IMAX 3-D, also announces its action credentials in a visually spectacular opening scene set on an alien planet of crimson-red forests and roiling volcanic eruption.
If the stakes were high — first in reviving "Star Trek," then in trying to outdo the first film's box office tally of almost $400 million worldwide — Abrams said he didn't notice.
"I was aware of the pressure but never really felt it, because I was not a 'Star Trek' fan," he said. "Working on it didn't carry the same sort of personal challenge of wanting it to meet a feeling that I had had since I was a kid."
For "Star Wars" — which he emphatically has loved since childhood — the stakes are even higher. Abrams knows he has to find a new way to approach material that has seeped into the global bloodstream. He also has to erase the tang of disappointment that clings to the inferior second trilogy, released between 1999 and 2005.
Abrams says his approach will be similar in some ways to the one he took on with "Star Trek."
"No project can be or should be approached assuming that the audience has any investment," he said. "If they do, that's a bonus. But it doesn't preclude the required steps of reintroduction."
He is fairly certain about one thing — the worlds of 'Star Wars' and 'Star Trek' will never meet.
"One is a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. And one is us in a few hundred years," he said.
"They could not feel more different to me. I feel like in my mind there is no Venn diagram overlap."
He hasn't ruled out directing a third "Star Trek" film, though he acknowledges, "it feels unlikely — but it's a very bittersweet thing to admit."
Abrams, whose output suggests a ferocious work rate and a lack of sleep, insists he almost turned down "Star Wars" because he had enough on his plate already.
"We had family plans, and I thought the next movie I was going to do was a small, very specific story that we're working on, a comedy-drama that I really love," he said. "And then this thing came along that was a fairly unique opportunity and it sort of interrupted every expectation of what the next couple of years were going to be."
But colleagues scoff at the idea he could ever have said no to his dream job.
"I knew he loved 'Star Wars' so much that my first thought was 'Oh my God, my friend is going to get to do what he's always wanted to do,'" Orci said. "On the other hand, I'm a 'Star Trek' geek, and I was like, ' You traitor!'"
Pine admits to being "a little heartbroken that he won't be back for the third to direct us, because he's obviously gained all our trust."
But, the actor said, "I'm excited for him and can't wait to see what he brings to ("Star Wars"), because as a kid from the 'Star Wars' generation, it's something near and dear to my heart. And I know what he's capable of doing."

There are plenty of cards that remove grims. That's good all in all let's say it's sort of balanced, but when the deck cand also use it's own grims and spam them, then we have a problem.
It creates too much of an advantage and thus when creating grim banning cards one needs to pay attention to the deck it's going to be played in, to not be able to rely on grims aside from one or two!

Dear all,
as far as I understand citta have the characteristic of cognizing, of knowing. I (think) I understand the principle pf how the citta receive information from the environment, like when eye sees an object and the whole vithi starts. But what I do not understand is how the return path works. What I mean is, for example, when I hear a sound and my head turns and my eyes look at where the sound comes from. What is it that makes my head turn? how do the citta interact with the body? I am not talking about the place where mind and body interact (I have heard that that is a place in the heart muscle?) but more about the working of citta and cetasika in this process.
hope somebody can help!

Comments On Nov 30, 2013:My Gaerne boots are worth every penny but these don't keep a beverage any colder than the cheap koozies. I only got them because I collect them and needed a few bucks to get free shipping but wish I wouldn't have blown the money. They got two stars because the toe of the boot helps to keep a beverage upright on an uneven surface. Otherwise, you have to be pretty hard core to need Gaerne can koozies.

"Fiasco!" is a SpongeBob SquarePants episode from season eight. In this episode, Plankton mistakenly swipes a piece of art instead of a Krabby Patty.

The scene opens up with Patrick, dressed in a business suit, asking where he can get something to eat. Squidward walks in, and tells him the answer is before him: the Krusty Krab. Mr. Krabs, dressed in a leotard, jumps out of the Krusty Krab, and SpongeBob slides down a rainbow to his side, and Squidward, who rides a dolphin while holding a plate with Krabby Patties, which Patrick eats. Suddenly, SpongeBob voice is heard describing Patrick's actions, then the scene turns to him and Mr. Krabs in front of a storyboard planned for a commercial. Mr. Krabs asks why he's in a leotard, and he says it's because he's the mascot. Mr. Krabs does not like this, and tears up the storyboard, telling him he needs a "masterpiece". Sad and sighing, he walks to Squidward's counter, sighing. When Squidward ignores him, he sighs again and again, each sigh more drawn-out than the one before, until Squidward gets so annoyed he asks what's troubling me. He tells him about his problems, but Squidward doesn't care. As he walks into the dining area, Squidward notices a patron squirting ketchup onto a pile of Krabby Patties.
The patron slaps the Krabby Patties off the plate. He asks Squidward for mustard, which he squirts onto a plate. When the patron leaves, Squidward looks at the plate and recognizes it as the artstyle of Fiasco. Mr. Krabs is about to throw it away when Squidward tells him it's actually a masterpiece. People run over to him, offering to buy it, but Mr. Krabs, seeing an opportunity to make money, tries to take the artwork from Squidward, and they argue over who really owns it. Just then, Farfel Bainbridge, an art evaluator, comes in and declares the work to be a national treasure, thus meaning neither Mr. Krabs nor Squidward own it. Mr. Krabs will allow people to view it in his restaurant for free, provided they buy Krabby Patties (two each).
Later, Plankton sees the artwork, and mistakes it for garbage. Planning to reverse-engineer the recipe, he steals it. He is immediately chased by police officers who dog him every step of the way, from a movie theater, a grocery store, and a satellite in space. When he loses them, he is baffled as to why police are chasing him, rather than Mr. Krabs. At night, he knocks on Patrick's rock, but when Patrick answers, he angrily tells him that he's got a busy day of doing nothing tomorrow. Plankton goes to Spongebob's house, using a spoon to hold SpongeBob and Gary hostage, and demands an explanation as to why the police are after him. SpongeBob explained that what he has stolen is in fact a work of art. Plankton gets the idea to sell the artwork, and declared Spongebob and Gary to be accomplices to his crime. Patrick comes in, and yells at everyone for making so much noise as to keep him awake, while eating something.SpongeBob asks what it is that Patrick ate, and Patrick reveals it was the artwork, which he mistook for hors d'oeuvres. Plankton declares him an accomplice as well. Suddenly, Squidward bursts in with the police, having called them because of all the noise. When they see Plankton, they immediately arrest him, along with Squidward and everyone else until they could figure this whole situation out. At the police station, Plankton is locked away. Gary, Patrick, and SpongeBob are free since Mr. Krabs explains they were not involved with the theft. But since the artwork is now in Patrick's stomach, Mr. Krabs has him stand behind an X-Ray machine which shows the artwork inside him. Fiasco is moved by Patrick's style, stating he will never make art again. The scene pans to Squidward, behind bars, asking about his phone call.

- This is the first appearance of Fiasco. The second was in Are You Happy Now?.
- The Old Man Jenkins from My Pretty Seahorse makes a cameo.
- This is the third time Squidward goes to jail. The first was in Good Ol' Whatshisname, the second was Professor Squidward, and the fourth was Squid Defense.
- In this episode, Squidward was blamed in the most unfair, ridiculous way possible. He never did anything as a crime. In fact, he actually helped the police by turning in Plankton.
- However, the police may have turn in Squidward for being a tattletale. Back in the episode Driven to Tears, when SpongeBob tried to tell on Patrick to the cops saying he was going over the speed limit, the policeman actually threatened to run SpongeBob in with him then saying "tattletale." It's also possible that he was arrested for the fact that Fiasco said he will never paint again, and the plate painting made of Krabby Patties was worthless.
- It's also possible that Squidward got arrested for calling the police on Spongebob and Patrick for nothing when it was Plankton they were after.

It's also possible that he was arrested for the fact that Fiasco said he will never paint again, and the plate painting made of Krabby Patties was worthless.
- This is the fourth time Plankton goes to jail. The first was The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. The second was Krabby Road, and the third was Sweet and Sour Squid.
- This is another instance where Patrick does something stupid which causes people to think he has artistic talent. A previous instance was The Googly Artiste, in which he simply glued googly eyes onto rocks and other objects, which were considered great art.
- Mr. Krabs calls Farfel Bainbridge "Farkle".
- Patrick ate something he shouldn't have before in Back to the Past: he ate the tartar sauce Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy were going to use against Man Ray, which allowed the villain to win, thus altering the future.
- Fiasco is a pun on Picasso.
- It's revealed that Plankton has pollen allergies when he sneezed and said "Blasted pollen allergies!"
- This is second time Plankton meets Gary. The first was in Shellback Shenanigans.
- Old Man Jenkins had two looks. First, when Plankton went in the store, and different when he left.
- Dale had a blue shirt, not a red one like he usually does.
- Captions error: "artiste" misspelled as "Ar-teest".

(AUBURN, Maine) – Bob Lorenz, an organic gardener from Sidney, Maine, picked up his brand new Honda Fit on Wednesday from Lee Auto Mall in Auburn after being chosen at random as the winner of the Maine Public Broadcasting Network's third annual "Life is Better with MPBN" contest.
Mr. Lorenz came to Maine in 2006 after 32 years in New York working for two iconic American companies, IBM and Kodak, and started an organic farm where he and his partner grow most of the food they consume throughout the year. He was in his kitchen canning pickles for the winter when reached for comment about what drew him to Maine and about winning the car.
"What brought me here was everything I felt Maine stood for," Lorenz said, listing traits that included "honesty, self-reliance, straightforwardness, concern for the environment and for the foods we eat and how they're grown."
In addition to being a member of MPBN, Lorenz is an active member of the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association, or MOFGA, and volunteers his carpentry skills each year to help prepare the fairgrounds for the Common Ground Fair in Unity and to help with the clean-up afterward.
Lorenz referenced a common Internet scam as he recalled the phone message he received from MPBN informing him that he had won a new car.
"The caller didn't provide a Nigerian P.O. box, so we thought it would be in our best interest to call back," he said with a hearty laugh. Even though he was already an MPBN member, Lorenz made an additional donation to MPBN of $500 when he picked up his new car.
According to the terms of the contest, anyone who made a donation to MPBN in any amount during May or June was entered into a random drawing for the car. As required by law, the contest was also open to anyone regardless of whether a donation was made, and thousands of entries were mailed in to MPBN or filled out at Lee Auto's twenty locations throughout the state to be included in the drawing, which was conducted in July.
Lee Auto Mall Chairman Adam Lee is also a member of MPBN and offered the car as an incentive for others to also support the network. Four other individuals won runner-up prizes consisting of an Apple iPad II as part of this year's "Life is Better with MPBN" contest.

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) -- Millions of holiday shoppers have spent billions.
But people who did miss out on Thanksgiving doorbusters, Black Friday deals and Cyber Monday specials still have plenty of big shopping days left.
It starts with major retailers like Amazon, Target, Walmart and Best Buy who stretch Cyber Monday deals through a cyber week.
For years e-tailers noticed a spike in sales on the second Monday in December when consumers realize they're getting tight on shipping time.
In 2007, eBay named that day Green Monday. And, this year it falls on Monday, December 10th, along with special deals from many retailers.
Monday, December 17th marks the fifth annual Free Shipping Day.
It's when hundreds of retailers will offer free shipping and other special offers to online shoppers.
And delivery of those holiday packages to the lower 48 states are guaranteed by Christmas Eve.
By December 22nd it's usually too late for online purchases. So, the last Saturday before Christmas has come to be known as Super Saturday.
A day when shoppers rush into stores to make last minute buys.
It's also when retailers will make deep discounts on merchandise to move it off of store shelves.

Jacksonville firefighters burned down a building planned for demolishment on Country Club Drive Thursday night around 6:00 p.m. in case you saw smoke or fire in the area.
Building owners gave the city permission to demolish it, so the city decided to use the site for a live training exercise for city firefighters.
Officials say any inconvenience to the public is necessary to get this special kind of training.

They call him King Ruff
Ruffed grouse hunters go strange when they talk about ruffed grouse. They get gooey, and words like "majestic" and "regal" pepper the conversation.
Grouse have a strange fascination. They're tough to hunt, hard to hit and superlative on the table. They're native to Missouri (at the southern edge of their range) but once almost were "extirpated," a euphemism for wiped out.
Now, all or part of 19 counties are open to hunting, with more in the offing -- not an extensive resource, but perhaps one day grouse will match the unexpected and dramatic comeback of the wild turkey.
Missouri grouse populations probably will never rival the Great Lake states and New England, the heart of King Ruff's realm.
Few Missourians hunt grouse. In fact, there's little doubt ruffed grouse are the state's most under-hunted game species. Old New England grouse hunters invariably call ruffed grouse "partridge." But grouse aren't partridges. The only true partridges in this country are introduced gray or Hungarian partridge, which exist in limited numbers in northeast Missouri, and the chukar partridge that shooting preserves often stock.
Ruffed grouse are close cousins to prairie chickens, sharp-tailed grouse and other grouses of the West.
Missouri opened modern grouse seasons in 1983. Hunters had to buy a special grouse permit (and still do), and the Conservation Department limited the number of permits to 3,000. Almost all were sold (2,917). Hunters took 151 grouse that first year.
The number of hunters has declined to a few over 400 now, and these take just about as many birds as the original 3,000 hunters did.
Why? Well, probably because grouse hunting is tough, frustrating and mostly nonproductive.
It happens in dense cover and, in Missouri, often involves travel up and down steep hills. The birds are spooky and don't hold well for bird dogs accustomed to more mannerly quail. Grouse are infamous for offering fleeting shots or no shot at all, just the diminishing drumroll of active wings.
It doesn't take much of that behavior to send frustrated hunters back to more open areas and quail, which come in bunches and behave the way Show-Me hunters think they should.
Still, Missouri continues a bumpy love affair with King Ruff. Missouri may be the only state that had active Ruffed Grouse Society chapters before there was a hunting season. And Missouri is the site of the most ambitious grouse project ever funded by the national Ruffed Grouse Society, a $300,000 timber management study that ran

Unnamed Alpha and Beta Quadrant planets
this wiki
|Time vortex planet
Time vortex planet was an informal name for the planet where the Guardian of Forever was located. This planet had a Class M atmosphere.
The planet was littered with the ruins of a massive, forgotten city that stretched beyond the horizon in all directions around the Guardian. Based on initial observations, the ruins appeared to be at least one million years old, although the Guardian claimed to be at least five billion years old, predating the existence of Sol system.
The planet of the time vortex was discovered by the crew of the USS Enterprise in 2267 and was revisited in 2269 by Captain James T. Kirk and his science officer Spock, accompanied by a team of historians. (TOS: "The City on the Edge of Forever"; TAS: "Yesteryear")
The novelization of "Yesteryear" (in Star Trek Log 1) names a city on the time vortex planet as "Oyya."
In the novel Imzadi, the time vortex planet is referred to in the 25th century as Forever World, since giving it anything other than such a Guardian-referencing name was felt to have been, in the words of one character, "... like painting a mustache on the face of God."
Other Pocket Books novels and Star Trek Online have called to the time vortex planet "Gateway," referring to the Guardian of Forever's final spoken line in "The City on the Edge of Forever", "Let me be your gateway."

Topic: Other Disorders/Symptoms
Fact Sheet: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Heartburn, Dyspepsia: Whats the Difference?226
By: W. Grant Thompson, MD, FRCPC
The anatomical diseases Crohn's, peptic ulcer, and esophagitis have functional counterparts with some similar symptoms; irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), dyspepsia, and functional heartburn, but these cannot be identified by x-ray or gastroscopy. Thus, for the diagnosis of these functional disorders doctors must rely entirely upon the patient's description of his or her symptoms.Topics: Dyspepsia, pain in upper abdomen or chest, Esophageal Disorders, GER, GERD, Heartburn, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Lower Abdominal Pain, Pelvic Pain, Other Disorders/Symptoms, Pain Management
Fact Sheet: How Can I Determine if I Received a Thorough Colonoscopy?232
By: Thomas Puetz, MD
Colonoscopy is currently our most effective means of reducing the incidence of colon cancer, but only slightly over one-third of eligible persons elect to have a colonoscopy. With the inconvenience and expense of colonoscopy incurred, one should expect and receive a thorough examination. This article outlines some way to ensure that your colonoscopy is performed correctly and thoroughly.Topics: Clinical Corner, colonoscopy, Constipation, difficult to pass stools, diagnosis, Diarrhea, loose stools, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Motility, Other Disorders/Symptoms, Tests, lower GI tract, Working with your healthcare provider
Fact Sheet: A Noisy Tummy: What Does it Mean?234
By: W. Grant Thompson, MD, FRCPC
While seldom of medical importance, for some people a rumbling, growling stomach can be a source of profound embarrassment. Picturesquely dubbed "borborygmi," bowel sounds seem loudest to the owner, who is sometimes mistakenly convinced they are obvious to all. This article explains the causes of bowel sounds, discusses when the sounds become a cause for medical concern, and offers some tips that may help reduce bowel noises.Topics: Digestive System, FAQs, Gas, Bloating, Belching, Other Disorders/Symptoms, Symptoms, Working with your healthcare provider
Fact Sheet: Serotonin: What is it Doing in My Gastrointestinal Tract?243
By: Gary Mawe, PhD; Jill Hoffman, PhD Candidate
This article explains the role of serotonin in the gut and how this may be used to develop new treatments for the functional gastrointestinal disorders.
Fact Sheet: Changes You Should Not Ignore if You Have IBS247
By: W. Grant Thompson, MD, FRCPC
An "alarm" symptom, sometimes also called a "red flag," simply means a symptom not explained by IBS, which calls for additional investigation. Dr. Thompson discusses the development of alarm symptoms and how to know when to see your doctor about them.Topics: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Other Disorders/Symptoms, Working with your healthcare provider
Fact Sheet: Abdominal Adhesions249
By: Information Adapted from the National Diseases Information Clearinghouse NIH
This publication addresses the causes, symptoms, complications, and treatments of abdominal adhesions – bands of tissue that can cause intestinal obstruction. Revised and updated by IFFGD, 2013.
Fact Sheet: Understanding Functional GI Disorders252
By: International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders IFFGD
Functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are a highly prevalent group of persistent and recurring conditions that can affect any part of the GI tract. They afflict millions of people of all ages, causing discomfort ranging from inconvenience to disability. Yet they remain largely hidden and misunderstood. This article explains the challenges of the conditions and the approaches to diagnoses and treatments.
Fact Sheet: Progressive GI Symptoms: Could it be Scleroderma?254
By: Dinesh Khanna, MD, MS; Brennan M. R. Spiegel, MD
On rare occasions, patients thought to have a functional GI disorder can develop progressive GI symptoms from another underlying condition. This is truly rare, but when symptoms do not respond as expected, or if symptoms get worse and worse despite a clinician's best efforts, it may be worth considering other things. Scleroderma is a very rare disorder that, when present, can frequently affect the gut.Topics: Gastroparesis, GER, GERD, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Other Disorders/Symptoms, Swallowing
Fact Sheet: Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction259
By: Information Adapted from the National Diseases Information Clearinghouse NIH
Intestinal pseudo-obstruction is a rare condition with symptoms like those caused by a bowel obstruction, or blockage. But when the intestines are examined, no blockage is found. Instead, the symptoms are due to nerve or muscle problems that affect the movement of food, fluid, and air through the intestines.Topics: Motility, Other Disorders/Symptoms
Fact Sheet: Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction260
The sphincter of Oddi is a muscular valve that controls the flow of digestive juices (bile and pancreatic juice) through ducts from the liver and pancreas into the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). Sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD) describes the situation when the sphincter does not relax at the appropriate time (due to scarring or spasm). The back-up of juices causes episodes of severe abdominal pain.Topics: Other Disorders/Symptoms

On Saturday, one of the top linebackers in the Midwest for the Class of 2014, Deon Drake of Detroit Cass Tech, visited Michigan State during the Spartans' first practice of the 2012 season. Drake, a 6-foot-1, 215-pound junior with offers from Michigan State, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Syracuse, Iowa and Pittsburgh, made the trip to East Lansing with his family to meet coach Mark Dantonio and his staff before starting camp for Cass Tech.Before the practice, Drake sat down with Dantonio for a discussion. The MSU head coach told him the Spartan staff like his athletisim, speed, explosive tackling and his ability to move from sideline to sideline. Linebackers and special teams coach Mike Tressel broke down the Michigan State defense with him and showed Drake how he would fit in as a Spartan. "Coach Tressel explained the different techniques and terminology they use on Saturdays and then quizzed me to make sure I understood the concepts" Drake said. "The whole experience was very impressive." Drake's mother became emotional while sitting with Coach Dantonio as she reflected on how far her son has progressed from little league football to being on the verge of attending a BCS college. Drake's father, Deon Sr., stated: "My son's talents are opening door for the whole family. His talents are bigger than he knows." The Drake family is familiar with MSU as Deon has extended relatives who have graduated or are currently enrolled at Michigan State. "I was not able to attend all of practice because we had to visit some of my family before we left East Lansing," said Drake Jr.When asked if he had a timetable for making a decision, Drake Jr. said that he was not in a rush to make a commitment. The soonest it could come would be the end of his junior season, he said.He is examining many factor for picking his future school including education along with traditions and atmosphere. He is also looking at the current roster of players and how successful they are. The coaching staff is also important to Drake. He said he is looking for a staff that set high expectations of their players and have open doors of communication. Drake stated he likes coaches who are hard on him because it only makes him better.Overall, he said he had a great experience at Michigan State. "As of right now, I would have to say that Michigan State is my number one school," Drake said.He was unaware that if he picked Michigan State that he would become the first Detroit Cass Tech player to do so since 2000. Drake said he will be visiting again for the Boise State game on August 31. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

And the Academy Award Goes To…
- next ›
- 321 of 734
- ‹ previous
I love awards season! I watch the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild Awards, Emmy Awards, and the Academy Awards every year. I look forward to the red carpet fashion and interviews, the opening numbers, and the speeches. I love when they show little clips of the movies or TV shows as the nominees are being announced.
When I was a kid, I remember my parents always commenting during the "In Memoriam" piece, how they hadn't realized this or that actor had passed away. I never really paid attention to this part much, since I had no idea who any of the actors were. Now I find myself recognizing more and more of the names, sad that these talented entertainers are no longer with us.
My 2012 Academy Award Picks
Even though no one in the movie business listens to my opinion, every year I make it a point to see as many of the nominees as possible before the shows and pick the people I want to win. Here are my "winners" for 2012:
• Best Picture: Midnight in Paris
• Best Actor: George Clooney, The Descendants
• Best Actress: Viola Davis, The Help
• Best Supporting Actor: Nick Nolte, Warrior
• Best Supporting Actress: Octavia Spencer, The Help
• Writing, Original Screenplay: Bridesmaids Written by Annie Mumolo & Kristen Wiig
Full Disclosure
I have not actually seen all of the nominated films yet and so picking my "winners" may be a bit premature. Here are a few of the movies I would still like to see, and some of them are coming soon to a library near you!
• My Week with Marilyn
• The Artist
• Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
• War Horse
• A Better Life
• Albert Nobbs
• The Iron Lady

Stephanie C would like to attend the Academy Awards one day. She has hosted Academy Awards parties the last few years, complete with fancy dresses and a red carpet.
