STORRS, Conn. — Tiffany Hayes scored 23 points, Maya Moore added 16 and No. 1 Connecticut put on a defensive clinic to beat ninth-seeded Purdue 64-40 on Tuesday night in the second round of the women's NCAA tournament.
The Huskies (33-1) advanced to the regional semifinals for the 18th straight season, the longest active streak in the nation. The victory was UConn's 22nd straight overall and 83rd in a row at home, and allowed Moore and fellow senior Lorin Dixon to go out in style.
They were playing their final game at Gampel Pavilion, and became the first UConn seniors to finish unbeaten at home. They were 40-0 at their on-campus arena and also went undefeated on their other home court, the XL Center in Hartford. They're 148-3 overall in their careers.
Drey Mingo scored nine points to lead Purdue (21-12).
GEORGETOWN 79, MARYLAND 57: At College Park, Md., Sugar Rodgers scored a career-high 34 points, and fifth-seeded Georgetown breezed past fourth-seed Maryland to reach the round of 16 for the first time.
The Hoyas (24-10) bolted to an 11-0 lead, made it 40-26 at halftime and increased the margin to 23 points with 16:23 left. They'll play top-seeded Connecticut in the Philadelphia Regional.
Georgetown went 0-2 against their Big East rivals this season.
Making its third appearance in the NCAA tournament, Georgetown dominated both sides of the court in this matchup of rival schools located only 15 miles apart.
Alyssa Thomas had 23 points and 14 rebounds for Maryland (24-8), and Lynetta Kizer contributed 11 points and 10 rebounds. But the Terrapins, playing on their home floor, shot a miserable 32 percent and committed 20 turnovers.
BAYLOR 82, WEST VIRGINIA 68: At Waco, Texas, Brittney Griner had 30 points even after sitting on the bench the final 9 minutes of the first half because of foul trouble, and top-seeded Baylor rolled into the round of 16 for the sixth time in eight years.
Baylor next plays Wisconsin-Green Bay in the NCAA tournament.
The Bears (33-2) already had a 14-point lead and Griner had 10 points when she picked up her second foul, but West Virginia managed to only trim that deficit to 11 by halftime.
Griner started the second half with an easy layup after a lob pass from Odyssey Sims. When the Mountaineers (24-10) later scored nine straight points, Griner ended the surge with a block followed by a strong inside basket.
Liz Repella had 29 points for West Virginia.
LOUISVILLE 85, XAVIER 75: At Cincinnati, Shoni Schimmel scored a career-high 33 points, leading a late comeback that swept Louisville to a victory over No. 2-seed Xavier on its home court.
The Cardinals (22-12) go to Spokane to play Gonzaga in a regional semifinal on Saturday.
Xavier (29-3) had no answer for Schimmel, who rallied the Cardinals from a seven-point deficit with 5:58 to go. It was a stunning collapse by Xavier, which made it to the Elite Eight last season and had won 19 in a row behind Amber Harris and Ta'Shia Phillips.
Harris led Xavier with 20 points, and the Musketeers made a season-high 14 3s while leading most of the way. They simply couldn't stop Schimmel to close it out. When Harris left the game with 20 seconds to go, she pulled up her gray No. 11 jersey to hide her face.
OKLAHOMA 88, MIAMI 83: At Charlottesville, Va., Danielle Robinson scored six straight points to break open a tied game, and sixth-seeded Oklahoma held on to beat third-seeded Miami.
Whitney Hand scored a career-high 27 points to lead the Sooners (23-11), who will move on to the Dayton Regional two victories away from a third straight trip to the Final Four.

Bruce Truscot's had been a sharp, unexpected wartime voice. Sir Walter Moberly's, only six years after Redbrick, was of a very different kind, speaking from a quarter of a century of public visibility, heading two institutions and the UGC. Truscot, in the war, was highly focused on the university. Moberly-critics suggested-confused the crisis of the university with the world crisis. What he undoubtedly did was bring the range of earlier experience and extensive discussion into the landscape of The Crisis in the University. He published the book in 1949, the year he left the UGC. Although it incorporated ideas that he had elaborated before, it went a great deal further and amounted to a full-scale account of the ideas that underpinned the history and present dilemmas of the universities. It was the first important twentieth-century philosophy of university education, embodying his advocacy of the university and of its transformation to respond to the values and needs resulting from the dangers and dilemmas of the times. Before contemplating the causes of present discontents he elaborated a three-phased history of the universities:
We had the Classical-Christian university, which was later displaced by the Liberal university. This in turn has been undermined but not as yet superseded, by the combined influence of democratisation and technical achievement. What we have, in fact to-day is the chaotic university. 1
'The chaotic university' is at least as expressive of Moberly's intentions as 'crisis'. In relation to the latter he had to determine with some difficulty the relationship between crisis inside the university and other kinds of crisis-including world crisis, the crisis of democracy, intellectual crisis and the

AMPA-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs), as well as most other transmembrane proteins, are not stable in the postsynaptic density as was previously thought, but undergo constant trafficking in and out of synapses by a combination of endo/exocytosis and lateral diffusion. The respective contributions of membrane recycling events and surface trafficking to setting AMPAR numbers at synapses have been the subject of intense debate. Although this discussion is not yet settled, it is safe to state that both categories of processes participate in receptor exchange at synapses at rest and during various forms of plasticity. More unexpectedly, AMPARs can diffuse at such high rates within the postsynaptic density itself that their surface trafficking could participate not only in setting receptor numbers at individual synapses but also in tuning synaptic transmission during short-term plasticity. I here review recent results that characterize the activity-dependent properties of AMPAR surface trafficking and their possible links to fast synaptic transmission.

San Francisco indie pop band Vetiver, which blends jangling, Byrds-like guitars with dreamy synths, performs Saturday, March 17, at the Columbia City Theater, in Seattle.
If drinking Guinness and shooting whiskey at a sweaty, overcrowded Irish bar isn't your idea of a good time on St. Patrick's Day (Saturday), you should check out the sun-drenched, laid-back tones of indie pop band Vetiver at Columbia City Theater.
Vetiver was formed by Andy Cabic in San Francisco in the early 2000s as a vehicle for his own songwriting. Having toured with the likes of Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom, Cabic signed with Seattle's Sub Pop Records in 2008.
Vetiver is often categorized as an indie folk band, probably because its earlier albums are built on a bed of acoustic guitars. But the band's latest release, "The Errant Charm" (2011), expands into new territory. The folk elements slip into the background, making room for dreamy electronic synths, psychedelic guitar parts and unapologetic pop melodies.
"I don't consider us a folk band, I consider us a pop band," says Cabic in a phone interview.

Most Read Stories
Cabic's soothing voice contributes to the overall dream-pop feel. Imagine a stripped-down version of The Byrds' jangling guitars mixed with Wilco's "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot," overlaid with vintage synths.
"The Errant Charm" is Vetiver's best record yet because it's more than just a collection of songs, it's a diverse and cohesive album. The arc of the project is quite lovely. A down-tempo opening section, highlighted by the floaty "It's Beyond Me," swells into a midsection of summery jams including "Wonder Why" and "Ride Ride Ride" before melting back into the calm waters of "Faint Praise" and "Soft Glass."
Cabic does the majority of his songwriting in San Francisco. The sounds of the city's musical greats — such as Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead — echo through his songs and walking the city's streets is part of his creative process.
"As I'm working on the arrangements and as I'm finishing the lyrics, I put rough mixes on my headphones and go for a walk," says Cabic. "That can play into the rhythm and into the cadence of the lyrics, and the images I write about in the songs."
After a few listens, Vetiver's songs, full of catchy little hooks, start to burrow into your head.

Embassy commissions provide some of the best opportunities for the design community to push the boundaries of contemporary thought. Other modern commissions in urban settings such as the Pompidou Center in Paris have sparked initial anger and later embracing acceptance. London is especially open to these cutting edge commissions. It is the context of "neighborhood" that raises THIS to controversy status, but a review of the helicopter view massing reveals the embassy to be sensitive and especially open at it's corner compared to other embassies.
The CPD Blog is intended to stimulate dialog among scholars and practitioners from around the world in the public diplomacy sphere. The opinions represented here are the authors' own and do not necessarily reflect CPD's views.
New Iran Embassy In London Stirs Controversy
LONDON ––Iran's planned new post-modern embassy is stirring debate here, both for its design and for its location in an historic preservation area.
Descriptions and artists' renditions show a six-story building cantilevered above and surrounding a smaller street corner structure that would be painted bright yellow.
Despite reports months ago on web sites, local authorities had not released details or drawings to community leaders. But some details were released after recent media reports.
London is host to a number of post-modern buildings, many of them once or still controversial, including the now iconic "pickle" office tower. But the Iranian embassy is to be built in the Queens Gate Conservation Area, five yards from historic St. Augustine's Church, stirring protests.
The local council promises "further public consultation" after "revised drawings" are provided by Iran.
Those with long memories will recall that Eero Saarinen's design for the U.S. embassy in London's historic Grosvenor Square was controversial at the time it was built over five decades ago. Now, the American embassy is scheduled relocate to a new, larger building on the other side of the Thames, and the current embassy site will be sold.
Perhaps the Iranian government could simply buy the existing U.S. embassy.

Competition [between companies] arises to exercise differentiation... however, this is exactly what is exhausted once it is established. Therefore, marketing is even more of a lie than it lets on.
I think of a gas station on the corner. A second gas station pops up to compete. Pretty soon, their prices are the same... so in essence it doesn't matter which gas station you go to. At this point, the gas stations turn towards value added services and their marketing. However, both gas stations may eventually provide the same value added services... but perhaps market them differently or at different times. Yet, when it boils down to it, if you walk into one, you can get exactly what you can get in the other for the same price, despite what their branding and advertisements reflect at that given moment.
So competition rises from differentiation, but thrives on sameness?

UCO Stormproof Match Kit
Okay, hopefully my final review of matches! These matches are amazing, and are now kept in our emergency kits, should we ever need to start a fire in extreme conditions. The matches are heavy duty, definitely waterproof, and the case and extra strikers make this a solid, though not expensive, addition to any emergency outdoor gear kit. We purchased this set of 25 matches,as part of the UCO set which includes a waterproof case, 25 matches, and 2 extra striker strips. These guys are heavy duty! Strong… Full review
UCO Waterproof Matches
Last fall, I reviewed a very disappointing brand of "waterproof" matches. Since then, I have obtained two types of UCO matches, and both are amazing upgrades, and are dependable components of our fire kits. When canoe camping, and tent camping in all types of weather, we need to have reliable matches. This review is for the UCO WATERPROOF MATCHES, which we have used through last fall, winter, and early spring. These are dependably, easy to light matches, which we use for camping in all weather conditions,… Full review

Click Heat gel packs have a small metal disc inside. When "clicked" the disc causes the gel in the pack to solidify and become hot through an exothermic reaction. They are really neat but quite impractical for the outdoors. They only last about 1/2 hour. These are just little 3 x 3 inch packets. You bend the small metal disk inside.

Black Diamond Halo 28 JetForce Avalanche Airbag Pack
A great evolution on the airbag concept with terrific selection of features. So I got to take this pack out for a spin the other day on a Ski Mountaineering objective. It was a pretty short day and we didn't get into any terrain that we felt was particularly risky, so I never felt the need for its key feature. The pack is accurate to the rest of the BD M/L sizing. It's surprising comfortable, and breathable for a winter pack. I certainly found it rather enjoyable to wear. The bag is burly, and feels… Full review

Since we do a lot of canoe camping, and camp in all weather, having waterproof matches seemed like a good idea.

HITECH/HIPAA Compliance
Secure the exchange of protected health information (PHI) and establish interoperability between systems and healthcare constituents
Need help complying with HITECH/HIPAA?
Let's talk.
The HITECH Act encourages the adoption of electronic health/medical records (EHR/EMR), with the ultimate goal of reducing healthcare costs and improving patient outcomes. To that end, it mandates that healthcare providers take a series of steps to strengthen HIPAA safeguards for data privacy, enable secure electronic exchange of PHI, and establish interoperability between systems — both internally and with external business associates.
For providers who want to maximize incentive dollars now and avoid penalties later, the time to assess your data channels and prepare for the next compliance deadline is now.
Axway 5 Suite can help.

I just inherited my parents house which was built in the 50s. Nothing has been done to the house since it was originally built except for immediate repairs, so it's in questionnable shape. But there are some pretty cool features (hardwoods, tongue/groove paneling, rock walls) that I would like to keep if it doesn't create too much havoc. The only house plans I've found don't match the existing layout.
I'd like to make the house wheelchair accessible and possibly add a master bedroom if it doesn't break my budget. But I don't know whether to remodel to or rebuild. Can anyone give me tips on where to start/what I should be considering?

- remodel or rebuild?
Hi, it depends on whether you can do the work yourself or need to hire it done, also the size of the existing rooms and whether you need to knock out walls to make them larger. Generally speaking, the first thing you need to consider is entry, do you have room for a ramp or do you need a lift. If you have an attached garage (which really is a must) can you enter the house without steps? Once in, doorways should be at least 32", preferably 36" wide. Hard surface flooring is so much easier to roll on and easier to clean wheelchair tracks. Most bathrooms need to be enlarged to accommodate a wheelchair. You need a 5' area to turn around in. Also, you need to have room around the stool (no walls) to be able to use it. And the walls need to be reinforced wherever grab bars are installed. You need to consider the bathing area, will the wheelchair occupant transfer to a shower chair in a tub or do you need to redo an area for a roll in shower. The lavatory should be a simple counter with knee panel, or a wall hung lav so they can roll under. Considering all this, it is probably going to have to be a comple tear down and redo in the bathroom, and that can get expensive. In the kitchen it is nice to have the kitchen sink adapted so they can roll under. A piece of counter, lowered, is ideal for working at, or even eating a simple meal. I have more suggestions if you would like, my husband became paralyzed in 2001 and we decided we needed to build a one level ranch, instead of remodel our 1908 bungalow. Hope this helps.

My key is stuck in the ignition and has been for at least 2 years. The key does not turn all the way back toward me so it doesnt release. I have to plug and unplug the battery when I'm done driving or want to start driving. I've been told by a commercial repair company that it will cost $400. I just dont have that kind of money but I'd like to get it fixed. Could it be a fuse or a bad part that is easy to replace?

A man was taken to the hospital Sunday morning after a two hour standoff with police at his Greenville apartment.
Around 5:30 a.m. Greenville Police responded to 500 Verdant Drive to reports of an intoxicated person who was using a large stick to damage cars in the parking lot and that he also attempted to break into an apartment.
Officers located and identified the suspect as 21-year-old Christian Lindsay of Kernersville.
Police say Lindsay had damaged at least 2 cars and one other apartment. They say he fled his apartment when officers arrived.
Once inside the upstairs apartment police say Lindsay broke out several windows, cutting himself in the process.
Officers attempted to negotiate with Lindsay to get him to surrender. After a two hour standoff Lindsay came out of the apartment but would not submit to police commands. Officers then used a taser to take Lindsay into custody.
Lindsay was transported to Vidant Medical Center for involuntary mental commitment.
Police say criminal charges against Lindsay for Damage to Property may be forthcoming. The case remains under investigation.
Police say Lindsay has prior arrests for assault and for misuse of 911 system. They say he is known to have prior contact with local law enforcement.

Well its springtime again in Hiram. This winter has been most mild, and with little snow. Its time to cut forsythia for florists and homeowners alike. I've been cleaning up the garage, the basement and the hoophouse. This week I'll start sowing seeds to grow my own plugs of sweet william, butterfly weed, and then later all the snapdragons, celosias and more. The oriental lilly bulbs should be arriving soon and will need to be planted by the end of the month for early summer brides and florists' orders. Trays of seedlings will grow in the basement under lights, and be able to transfer out to the hoophouse by St. Patty's day or so. So lots to do this time of year...and still making jams of all flavors for sale at the farmer's markets this summer.
11 Mar · Fri 2011
Well another typical NE Ohio day. Lots of snow!!!
But spring will be here- Forsythia is blooming now and ready for sale. Forsythia can be cut at the end of January for forcing of the flowers in several weeks. The branches flowering now were cut several weeks ago. These branches will hopefully be coming to a florist near you this upcoming week.

I've had many investors ask me how to get into my deals. With syndicates, you can now gain access to my proprietary dealflow automatically. You can sever your relationship with me and stop backing at any time, and not invest in any deal for any reason. Backing me gives you a guaranteed allocation so you don't miss out on deals. I'm doing this to help give me negotiation leverage on deal terms for startups, and to bring value-added co-investors into my deals.
My approach to syndicates are: I would rather risk my own money than others' money. So any deal I bring to AngelList is going to be one that I truly believe in. I will often take advisory shares and write a small check months before doing a syndicate since I want to watch the team's performance before doing a syndicate. I'm super picky and turn-down 98% of the dealflow that I see. My sector focus is generally enterprise software, B2B SaaS, and marketplaces.
I will typically pull the trigger on a syndicate soon after the team has fully de-risked their hypothesis and achieved product/market fit and revenue, so that we get in at the lowest price. I typically will have VCs meet my syndicate deals, and have them either co-invest or gauge their temperature to lead a Series A so that they can protect the deal.
Please note: Angel investing is risky. Whenever you make an angel investment, you should always do so with money that you don't need, since most investments fail. You should also assume that exits can take 7-10 years. Please read the Angel Investing FAQ I wrote (see my profile page) to learn more from my experiences as an angel investor.
I've been an angel investor for over 5 years, and have been fortunate enough to invest or advise some great startups. The deals I invest in come from a referral network of other entrepreneurs I've helped, through paying-it-forward with them by mentoring at incubators, helping startups fundraise, as well as advising CEOs. I also collaborate with VCs, who both use me for advice on their deals, as well as send me dealflow, and protect my angel deals by co-investing with me. I've helped raise millions for startups over the past few years and have a strong relationships with other co-investors. I look for startups with traction, a strong team, in a big market. My sector focus is B2B SaaS, open-source, marketplaces, and game infrastructure.

ice maker/coffee hookup??
I need to run a water line for the new fridge location- I'm in the process ot redoing the kitchen- Right next to the fridge will be a counter (with the coffee maker on it). I thought it be a good idea to possibly run a water to the coffeemaker (vs filling it by hand)... Can I run the water line to the back of the fridge then tap off it and run to the coffeemaker? Anyone else have any thoughts/suggestions?
yes you can.
what is cross connection and how is it different than an ice maker?

See what happens when bikini babes site on ugly cars.
Mission: Find a nerd in a bikini shop, overwhelm him with your hotness, then get him to steal for you.
What's bad about this cover of "Survivor"? Pretty much everything. What's great about the video? The attempt to distract you with her "coconuts".
Wow, nothing says sexy like a surgary brown tan and thigh muscles so strong, she could crack your head open. Snap into a slim Jim!
Bruce Willis spent the weekend enjoying the view. Bruce is more than double his new girlfriends age, one thought… saggy balls.
Picture yourself an awkward loner whose only talent is making balloon animals. Best thing to do: make amazingly intricate bikini out of balloons.
There are worse jobs than being the guy who fondles Alessandra Ambrosio to get her bikini just right.
I'm sure there's a logical explanation for the reason why bikini-clad Kiki Drunskt is getting her nubs tweaked by her beach buddy. I just don't care.

Thought I'd pass on this simple modification to my Allen trunk rack which makes our two road bikes fit more "comfortably" on it.
The problem was that, given the angle of the support bars, the first bike doesn't hang straight down, but leans heavily against the rest of the rack. This bends the water bottle cage. The second bike hangs straight down, so the bikes aren't parallel.
Here's the view of the original arrangement (Before I realized I shouldn't have the derailleurs facing one another):
The easy solution was to buy some tubing and replace the original tubing with some that I cut to space the bicycles in a better arrangement. That is, I put more space between bike one and the rack, and less space between the two bikes:
(I had to cut one piece of tubing at an angle, because the 1 foot piece I bought wasn't quite enough).
Thus, they both hang down parallel to one another, and the first bike isn't mashed against the rack:
I tried it out yesterday, and it worked fine.

Welcome to the forum!
If you are on a tight budget, the Shimano Sienna is a decent option for around 30-35 bucks. The Shimano Sedona runs about 60 bucks and is also a good reel, and will obviously be better quality than the cheaper model. You would want to go with the 4000 size in Shimano reels (Shimano reels are numbered 500 to 4000, higher numbers = larger line capacity and stronger drag), or a comparable reel that would hold 120-200 yards of 12 pound mono. The Sienna has a much weaker drag, but if you are running 25 pound mono for salmon it would still be enough.
As far as a rod goes, I would suggest going with an Ugly Stick. They are a decent rod at about 60 bucks. If you wanted to go more expensive you could look at North River graphite rods for 80 bucks (Fisherman's Marine in Oregon City, their house brand) or something like the North Rivers in the same price range. Graphite rods similar to the North Rivers will run 75 to 90 bucks. The Ugly Sticks are fiberglass. At this price point and this being your first rod I personally would lean towards the Ugly Stick.
Higher yet, you could get an entry level Lamiglas G200 series rod which are in the $120 range. Lamiglas makes quality rods, and they are made in Washington. The other rods I mentioned, and almost all rods in this price range and below will be made in China.
It really all comes down to what you want to spend. Going with an Ugly Stick and Shimano Sedona 4000 reel you would be right around 100 bucks or less.
If you wanted to spend 20-30 bucks more I would highly suggest going with a better reel, like the Sedona, not a more expensive rod.
If you had a price of $200 or less in mind I would suggest going with the Lami G200 and a Shimano Sedona 4000, and you would see a large increase in rod quality over the Ugly Stick.
Keep in mind that a spool of good line will be 10 bucks for mono (braided line will be more expensive and adds a whole new level of complexity, and these kinds of things can get overwhelming fast). I would suggest no more than 12 pound good quality line for steelhead and 20 or 25 for salmon. Your drag should be set at 1/3 the breaking strength of your line.
As far as rod weight goes I would suggest a rod rated at 8-15 pounds for steelhead, or 10-30 pounds if you intend to use it for both steelhead and salmon. Those numbers are the size of line you should be using. The action should be "medium" or "medium-heavy" for steelhead only, or "medium-heavy" or "heavy" for steelhead and salmon as well. The action is essentially how much "backbone" the rod has, and how easily it will bend.
I hope that this wasn't too much information at one time. I tried to cover any other questions that might arise. If you do have other questions I'll do my best to answer them.
Be sure to keep in mind everything that others post as well as what I said, and make a decision after you have gathered plenty of advice. There are a lot of people on here with great advice, and I'm sure that other people will have more to add.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"And he did rescue us from mortal danger, and he will rescue us again. We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us." (2 Corinthians 1:10 NLT, 2nd edition)
God is watching over you, so don't listen to your fears. This is a choice. Trust God, and don't give in to your fears.
God's promise to believers is that, no matter what happens to us, he is working for our good — if we love him and follow him (Romans 8:28). If you're a believer, the Bible says all things are working together for good — not that all things are good, but working together for good.
That means we can stop listening to our fears; there is no difficulty, dilemma, defeat, or disaster in the life of a believer that God can't ultimately get some good out of. There is no need to fear the future.
Your fears reveal where you do not trust God. Today, make a list of your fears, and ask God to help you identify why you have fear in those areas. Then, ask him to help you replace your fears with trust.
Now, this is important: expect God to start helping you learn to trust him with each fear. Then, watch to see how he helps you.

Perspectives and Potentials for Absolute Dating Prehistoric Rock Paintings
Watchman, Alan, Antiquity
Approaches to dating rock paintings
The processes and materials used and the antiquity of rock paintings have always been of interest to archaeologists (e.g. Watson 1967; 1969). However, until recently few methods were available to provide answers to questions about the antiquity of rock pictures. Questions concerning temporal social interactions and relationships, cultural developments and interchanges between different linguistic groups have been based primarily on painting styles and relative chronologies (e.g. Chaloupka 1984; Lewis 1988; David & Cole 1990; David et al. 1990).
Prehistoric paints are difficult materials to date because they are generally composed of naturally occurring and geologically old ochres, clays and other pigments. The range of inorganic pigments, ochres, fillers and organic dyes available to prehistoric artists was immense (Leechman 1937; Watson 1967; Rudner 1982; Zolensky 1982: Clottes et al. 1990; Watchman 1990c). Iron oxides and aluminium silicates, the essential ingredients of ochres and clays, do not contain any known materials which can currently be used to date a painting.
In recent times rock art chronologists have tried to adapt easel painting authentication strategies to the absolute dating of rock paintings. However, some of these approaches are unsuitable for dating prehistoric rock paintings. For instance, dating the rock beneath paintings will yield an age for the igneous, metamorphic or sedimentary rock-forming process and not the time of painting.
Chaloupka (1984) attempted to establish a chronology for some northern Australian rock art by making correlations between changes in palaeoenvironmental conditions and superimpositions of depictions of fauna and flora in rock painting motifs. General limiting ages can also be assigned to paintings of extinct animals (Brandl 1972; Wright 1972; Lewis 1977). Rock paintings of horses, ships, aeroplanes and men with guns in Australia, Africa and North America are obviously relatively recent. Almost all other motifs have not yet been dated absolutely, but this situation is changing.
A major problem facing rock painting chronologists is that indigenous people around the world regard rock painting sites as sacred or highly significant places. Sampling must therefore be done with extreme care and respect, not only for the artefact but also for the people whose heritage is being studied. Damage to paintings must be minimized and so technological and innovative approaches are necessary.
The AMS 14C dating method is generally accepted by archaeologists, geomorphologists and geologists as a reliable way of dating organic matter. Current research into the absolute dating of rock paintings is aiming either to date organic matter which was deliberately or accidentally incorporated in paints during paint preparation, or to determine the ages for layers containing organic substances under and over paintings. When interpreting dating results, consideration must always be given to the source of the original sample. The question 'What precisely was dated?' should always be asked.
Dating organic binding media in paints
Evidence for the presence of organic substances in paints is found throughout the ethnological literature, though most of it is highly speculative. In North America, for example (Grant 1967: 13)
For rock painting the pigment was reground and mixed with some sort of oil binder to give it permanence. The type of binder certainly varied from place to place, but animal oils, blood, white of egg, and vegetable oils were all readily available and would serve the purpose.
Dewdney & Kidd (1967: 169) mentioned the use of spittle mixed with pigment and also stated that 'beaver tails and fish roe, the hoofs of moose and deer, could all be used to make glue, and fish and rabbit skins may have been utilised also'.
The Luiseno of California ground parched kernels of chilicothe (Echinocystis macrocarpa) with hematite (Harrington 1933: 142). …

The best option is a run-off. Turn off the clocks, and have the two women line up and run it out. The winner represents the United States in the 100m dash. The loser becomes a footnote in Olympic history. It's the only option that requires the tie is settled by running, and it's in the tradition of U.S. track and field. Team USA is not chosen by a committee or by looking at accolades. It's chosen by the athletes' performances during the trials, and it's a crucible that has worked in making the U.S. a track and field powerhouse.
A terrible, horrible option that has been bandied about is a coin flip. Place all the hopes and dreams of Felix and Tarmoh on the flip of a coin. Though it may work to settle ties in draft orders or who gets the ball in the NFL, it is not appropriate for the Olympic Trials. Too much depends on the decision for it to be settled by chance.
Another option would be for track and field officials to decide based on Felix and Tarmoh's records. Though more fair than a coin flip, it would open the door for favoritism and politics. Felix and Tarmoh deserve better.
Let them settle it on the track, put it on live television, and stick with what works.

Roberto Martinez the man for Aston Villa
ROBERTO MARTINEZ is clear favourite to land the Aston Villa job.
Roberto Martinez was locked in a battle for the role
But late last night Martinez emerged as the front-runner after Benitez appeared to have his doubts over Villa's spending plans for the new season.
Randy Lerner, the Villa owner, is understood to have spoken to both Spaniards yesterday, just 24 hours after flying in from America to finalise the replacement for Gerard Houllier.
And he is ready to offer Martinez a new challenge away from the DW Stadium after informing Steve McClaren's representatives that the former England manager is no longer under consideration.
McClaren was set for an interview with Lerner today, but has been told that the meeting will not take place, because Villa believe they "have got their man."
And with Benitez believed to be unsure about the financial plans for investment in new players for the new season, Martinez appears the favourite after being given permission to open negotiations by Wigan chairman Dave Whelan.
Whelan confirmed last night that Villa made a request to speak to Martinez regarding the vacancy last week.
He said: "Aston Villa have acted above board and in a totally professional manner throughout."

TOKYO (AP) — The Japanese Olympic Committee says Tokyo Governor Shintaro Ishihara will be appointed chairman of the city's 2020 bid committee, while JOC president Tsunekazu Takeda will oversee the day-to-day operations of the bid activities.
Ishihara was the driving force behind Tokyo's failed bid to host the 2016 Olympics, which were awarded to Rio de Janeiro.
Rome, Madrid, Tokyo, Istanbul, Doha, Qatar, and Baku, Azerbaijan are competing to host the 2020 Olympics. The IOC will select the host city by secret ballot in Buenos Aires on Sept. 7, 2013.
