The "big, weird" bird caught by an ethnic resident in Son La Province last month has been identified by a zoologist as the Cinereous Vulture. A "big, weird" bird caught by an ethnic minority resident in the northwestern province of Son La last month has been identified by a zoologist as the Cinereous Vulture (also known as Black Vulture, Monk Vulture, or Eurasian Black Vulture). Professor Vo Quy, a noted zoologist, told online newspaper VnExpress the bird was not "strange" but it is rather rare. On January 20, Le Van Lien, the 62-year-old resident of an ethnic minority village in Quynh Nhai District saw the bird swoop down on a pond near his house. Lien said the bird looked like it was starving and could not fly any more. He caught the bird, brought it home and fed it with meat and vegetable. The 7.5-kilogram bird, with a wingspan of 2.8 meters and a body 0.7 meters long, has brought many curious villagers to his house. The bird eats one and a half kilograms of meat and … [Read more...]
New Year wishes of the poor
For many people, the New Year means a burden of worry or something else, not a time for celebration. The 59-year-old porter Le Van Lien works at mid night in Vinh Kim fruit market in Tien Giang Province Photo: Tuoi Tre With the traditional lunar New Year festival approaching, poor people have felt pressure to save at least enough for a good meal to offer on the altar in the home for their late relatives, and for offering small gifts to children. At 8 pm, in a thatch house in An Lac Tay Commune of Ke Sach District in Soc Trang Province, Doan Thi Dep hangs up the mosquito net for her three and seven-year-old children to go to bed, and then rushes to a drain near her house to collect snails. The 40-year-old woman swam into the water in cold weather. Though the job is hard, Dep always thinks of her children, who would otherwise be hungry during Tet when she is unemployed. Now, she does not even have rice in her house to feed the children. Thinking of … [Read more...]

More patients need organ transplantation Just a few patients suffering kidney or liver failure received organ transplantation in Vietnam, said the Ministry of Health and Organ Transplantation Association at a meeting to call on people to donate their organs in Hanoi. According to the Ministry of Health, the country has 14 medical facilities which are able to perform organ transplantation and Vietnamese doctors' skill in transplantation is as good as their counterparts in foreign countries. However, the sector is in severe need of organ supply while the demand is increasing drastically.

Resettlement changes lives of farmers
by Thu Huong Le DIEN BIEN-SON LA — As one drives closer to the centre of Muong Lay Town, about 110km from Dien Bien Phu City, the once idyllic village now looks like a major construction site, with excavators, trucks and containers clearly visible. But roads and bridges make this isolated mountain town feel strangely urban. Groups of kids burst out from a nearby local school, heading home in an area where rows of wooden, stilt-houses line up so neatly, and so close to one another. Formerly known as Lai Chau, the town of 11,650 residents is nestled in a valley carved from spectacular mountains by the Da River. Nearly 3,600 families were resettled there in 2009 and 2010, paving the way for the Son La Hydropower Plant, the largest dam in Southeast Asia, which became fully operational last December. Three years after the town was moved to above the water-level, Tu Ba Minh, chairman of Muong Lay People's Committee, said it had become such a successful model for the resettling process … [Read more...]

I'm pretty much a scrounger and tight ass when it comes to equipment but I want to get the best stuff (even if used) for my budget. Currently have 2 bikes. 18yo Haro Escape hardtail that has pretty well been my trusty steed and has served me well since new, and a mid 80's SR, middle of the road, road bike. Have no intention of upgrading the Haro as that is my beat around town bike that I ride 80% of the time. I want to upgrade my road bike. The grinding friction shifters and double crank have done well on my relaxed 20-40 mile fairly flat rides but as the mileage increases I want a better ride. So I'm here to learn and hopefully upgrade soon.

A dozen or more of these wines are produced annually in case quantities of roughly 200 to 600.
ON OCCASION, I've written about the advantages of joining winery clubs and mailing lists, with a focus on limited-production, boutique wineries. But there's no reason a big winery can't play this game and play it well. I queried Bob Bertheau, who is responsible for overseeing winemaking at Ste. Michelle, about the winery's Limited Release wines. These are wines that fall outside the mainstream, often featuring a single grape variety and vineyard.
"There is a part of all of us," Bertheau replied, "that longs for making smaller, unique wines that allow a little bit more license … and push the limits of style and complexities. This is where our Limited Release wines come into play."
A dozen or more Limited Release wines are produced annually in case quantities of roughly 200 to 600 — tiny by Ste. Michelle standards. Some are sold to club members, some through the tasting room. A few are offered to restaurants. Bertheau calls them "wines of fun, passion and less inhibitions on style." They don't always resonate with everybody, he admits, "but that is OK and somewhat expected. These are wines to discuss and have fun with."
Agreed. I found it especially interesting to compare these Limited Release selections to the chateau's mass-produced wines. For example, the 2011 Ste. Michelle Chardonnay, which sells for $13, is pleasant, with apple and pear fruit, and buttery, toasty accent flavors; 650,000 cases are in production.
- Purple Heart plant bed vandalized days before Memorial Day
- Central District's shrinking black community wonders what's next
- Refusal in Bernie Sandersland to accept reality is really unreal
- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
- Seattle's vanishing black community
Most Read Stories
The 2011 Ste. Michelle Limited Release Unoaked Chardonnay sells for a few dollars more. To me, it's a far more interesting wine, with pinpoint detail. A spicy burst of yellow and green fruits splashes across the palate, ripe, tart, focused and showing interesting textures. A whopping 210 cases were produced.
Winemaker Wendy Stuckey, who hails from Australia, made a bone dry, 2011 Ste. Michelle Waussie Riesling ($22). If you've ever enjoyed a bracing bottle of riesling from Australia's Eden Valley, you have a good idea of the style Stuckey was aiming for — and delivers. It's fresh and lively, with excellent balance, and finishes at just 12 percent alcohol.
The red-wine offerings are more expensive, though still well within the price range for comparable efforts from other Washington wineries.
The 2009 Chateau Ste. Michelle Limited Release Mourvèdre ($25) is sourced from the outstanding Stone Tree vineyard. Light touches of chocolate, clean earth and mineral underscore plum and cherry fruit flavors.
The 2009 Chateau Ste. Michelle Limited Release Malbec ($25), sourced from the Canoe Ridge Estate vineyard, offers compelling blue and black fruits, wrapped in a finish of coffee and cream.

Here's One Fascinating Fact About Each US President You Need To Know
By Mack Rawden 2 years ago
At some point or another, every American was told at least one random fact about each President. Unfortunately, an overwhelming majority of those facts were really dry and boring. So, in response, our brains either disposed of those facts or filed them away in some dark and ugly corner thats never accessed. Thats what happens when historical figures never get humanized. We only remember the broad brush strokes, but that doesnt mean all of these political leaders dont actually boast really interesting, or at least marginally interesting facts we would remember.
Did you know Chester A Arthur owned over eighty pairs of pants? Did you know George Washington was worth about $500 million in todays dollars? How about that Benny Harrisons father had his body stolen by grave robbers?
The above video was put together by Mental Floss and it offers one hot fact for every single Presidential term. Just like their terms presiding over the country, the facts vary in quality and double take-ness, but even Calvin Coolidges born on the 4th of July point of interest is worth hearing, especially when delivered by John Green with his goofy intellectual sneer.
If you feel like learning some more hot facts about these same Presidents, you can check out another edition of the show with the exact same concept

American expects flights to return to normal
"No one at the counter can do anything. They can't check people in," Anzur said. "The airline is at a dead halt."
Theoretically, an airline could do the same work as the reservation system manually for any one flight. But doing it for hundreds of flights isn't practical. American and Eagle operate about 3,300 flights a day.
Now, if the reservations systems go down, "most airlines would be pretty much without the ability to fly more than a very limited number of flights," said Scott Nason, American's former technology chief and now a consultant.
Nason said airlines find and fix the problem, but the next time something else causes an outage. One time, a possum chewed through a cable in Tulsa, Okla., bringing down the whole system. Another time, a worker in the airline's data center used a metal tool instead of an insulated, rubber-coated one - a short-circuit crashed much of the system, he said.
Brent Bowen, a professor of aviation technology at Purdue University, said massive system failures are inevitable as airlines grow increasingly reliant on technology.
"As those systems get bigger and more complex, at some point you're going to have a systemic failure," Bowen said. He added that financially strapped airlines may have underinvested in technology during the past decade, making the computer systems more vulnerable. AMR has lost more than $10 billion since 2001 and filed for bankruptcy protection in late 2011.
American's problems on Tuesday were reminiscent of what United Airlines passengers endured for several days last year. After merging with Continental, United experienced computer glitches in the combined reservation system. On one day in August, 580 United flights were delayed, and its website was shut down for two hours. Another outage in November delayed 636 flights.
The problems prompted an apology from United Continental Holdings Inc. CEO Jeff Smisek, who acknowledged that his airline had frustrated customers and would need to work to win them back.
American began making amends by offering to book people who needed to travel Tuesday on other airlines and pay for the fare difference. For those who wanted to delay their trips, American offered refunds or waivers from the usual fee for changing a reservation.
But for several hours, the airline wasn't able to process those changes and refunds - because the computers were down.

The Fable of the Long-Term Federal Budget Crisis
The Washington elite are returning to their obsession with the long-term budget crisis, which means extremists are once again calling for benefit cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Last week, as the government reopened, President Barack Obama called for cooler heads to prevail and warned elected leaders to ignore the bloggers and paid activists who have been distracting lawmakers from the real task of growing our economy. The president's warning should apply also to so-called moderates who continue to succeed in creating a fable to convince rational people to agree to make sacrifices of family-sustaining programs, rather than ask the rich to pay their fair share of taxes.

Early Highway Planning
Early highway planning grew out of the need for information on the rising tide of automobile and truck usage during the first quarter of the twentieth century. From 1904, when the first automobiles ventured out of the cities, traffic grew at a steady and rapid rate. After the initial period of highway construction that connected many of the nation's cities, emphasis shifted to improving the highway system to carry these increased traffic loads. Early highway planning focused on the collection and analysis of factual information and on applying that information to the growing highway problems in the period prior to World War Π.
In the early years of highway construction, the automobile had been regarded as a pleasure vehicle rather than as an important means of transportation. Consequently, highways consisted of comparatively short sections that were built from the cities into the countryside. There were significant gaps in many important intercity routes. During this period, urban roads were considered adequate, particularly in comparison to rural roads, which were generally not paved.
As the automobile was improved and ownership became more widespread, the idea of a highway network gained in strength. The concept of a continuous national system of highways was recognized in the Federal Highway Act of 1921. The Act required that the state highway departments designate a system of principal interstate and intercounty roads, limited to 7 percent of the total mileage of rural roads then existing. The use of federal-aid funds was restricted to this system. This concentration of attention on a carefully selected system of

Tentative Last Date:04-06-2012
About the organization:
Human civilization has almost mastered to harness natural resources. So much so, instead of being part of ecosystem we have occupied centre stage of ecosystem and started modifying the ecosystem as we like. However, we must appreciate natural resources are not infinite. Growing need/greed and pace of utilization has put us in critical situation. India in particular has vast natural resources. Still due to dependency of large population on natural resources, we see scarcity/ mismanagement and conflicts. We need an efficient method which can provide us timely and accurate information on resources utilization pattern in time and space. The importance of remote sensing for the socio-economic development of nations has been recognized since the era of aerial photography in the early part of 20th century. The advent of space borne platforms on unmanned satellites has provided unprecedented opportunities to study earth surface features, physical processes, natural resources and environment. Therefore, remote sensing from aerospace media has become the most valuable tool for management and monitoring of natural resources and environment.

A Portland man was sent to the hospital Sunday afternoon after a tree fell on him near Lacamas Lake.
Michael Jackson, 39, of Portland was fishing with his girlfriend on the lakeshore near the 300 block of Southeast Leadbetter Road, said Sgt. Scott Boyles, Camas police spokesman.
Jackson's girlfriend, Joanna Cardinal, 33, also of Portland, called 911 at 1:16 after a tree fell over both lanes of the road, hit Jackson's 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe, the guardrail and Jackson, Boyles said.
The officer who responded told Boyles that Jackson would have sustained serious injuries or possibly been killed if the tree hadn't hit the car and guardrail first.
Jackson was sent to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center with nonlife-threatening injuries, Boyles said. He was treated and released, PeaceHealth spokesman Ken Cole said Monday afternoon.
The road was cleared around 2:35 p.m. Sunday.

Who's your favourite Flying-type Gym Leader: Falkner, Winona or Skyla? Why? If they had to battle each other, who would be the best?
Falkner all the way ! He's one of the cutest gym leader to my mind. There are very beautiful fanarts of him. Then I love his personnality in the manga. He's an interesting character. And, anyway I particularly like Johto Gym Leaders.
However, I believe the strongest would be Winona. I think Skyla's team pretty weak, and in the game she was the easiest for me to beat out of the three. And, if they had to battle each other with their World Tournament's team, Winona would win to my mind. Her team's seems to be the toughest.

We all know that nuns and dragons go together like shoes and socks, like salt and pepper, like Buffy and Angel; okay, maybe not, but that's the premise of this collection from Fox Spirit, and it could have gone so horribly wrong. How many different ways is it possible to link the two titular entities? Well, there are twenty-three authors here who have no such problems, finding a plethora of unique scenarios in which to tell their tales.

A paper in the online journal PLoS One looked at news coverage of studies on ADHD and concluded:
"Because newspapers preferentially echo initial ADHD findings appearing in prominent journals, they report on uncertain findings that are often refuted or attenuated by subsequent studies. If this media reporting bias generalizes to health sciences, it represents a major cause of distortion in health science communication."
The authors further suggest:
"If further investigations of other health issues confirm our observations and reinforce our interpretations, it might be timely for scientists, journal editors and university media writers to define and respect ethical rules regarding health science communication. For example, press releases reporting on an initial study should include a warning statement pointing out that these findings must be confirmed by subsequent independent investigations. Indeed, the quality of press releases positively influences the quality of associated newspaper stories. The time would be also right to warn journalists about this major publication bias inherent to the scientific process."

Military dogs and handlers patrol in Afghanistan
"He should be OK," Fischer said 10 days later by telephone, his voice raspy after having tubes inserted down his throat during treatment. "At first, there was some talk about him losing one of his legs, but not so much anymore. Knowing Drak, he should be fine."
Drak, trained to find narcotics, is being treated at Dog Center Europe, a U.S. military facility in Germany. He will be transferred for more care at Lackland Air Force Base, a training site for military dogs in San Antonio, Texas.
Fischer plans to head there, too. His wife has family there, and he wants to be with Drak, whose name is a variation of Drac, or "devil" in Romanian.
"When he meets people, he can be calm and relaxed," the Marine said. "When we go outside, he's excited and rambunctious and likes to play, and I'm the same way."
What Drak doesn't like is shooting. During gunfire training, he lay down beside Fischer, calm and meek, until it was over. He did the same during a Taliban mortar attack.
"He is a very obedient dog," Fischer said. "He will only listen to me. Somebody else will be around and give him commands and he'll just look at them like they're stupid."
Fischer wants to resume his Marine Corps career. But, he said, Drak can spend his days lying around at Fischer's home at his duty station in Twentynine Palms, California, or playing frisbee, one of the dog's favorite activities. He acknowledged it will be "some time" before they get there because of their injuries.
Sgt. Mark Behl, a dog handler who helped Drak the day he was injured, said it helps to fit a calm handler with a "high drive" dog, or an "excited person with a bored dog."
Placid and amiable, Behl said his dog, a German Shepherd named Fuli, is "a handful."
Dog handling under the stress of danger is a subtle, pinpoint profession. Behl said he knows Fuli so well after two and a half years together that he can tell whether he is sniffing idly, perhaps on the trail of another animal's scent, or has detected something serious, such as the ingredients of crudely made explosives.
"There's a lot more to the job than just holding the leash," said Behl of Cottage Grove, Wisconsin. "I know to keep him moving or to let him work."
At the same time, he must know when to pull Fuli away from a threat, aware of the hidden bombs that have killed or maimed many troops in Afghanistan.
Fuli has a vexing habit during patrols in cornfields of running into adjacent rows of corn and getting his leash tangled around the stalks. But he plays ball with Marines back on base, boosting their morale.
"At the end of the day, the dog is going to come up and lick me in the face," said Behl, who grew up around dogs. "It's a little taste of home, just having an animal."

"Take two cheeseburgers and call me in the morning" may sound like far-fetched medical advice but it could soon be heard at doctors' surgeries.
A new study shows that high-fat foods can, at least in the gut, reduce inflammation. The work - to be published today in The Journal of Experimental Medicine - also suggests that people who have fasted could be at risk of developing a potentially lethal inflammatory response after surgery or an injury.
Eating - particularly eating fat-rich foods - causes cells in the small intestine to produce a helpful hormone called cholecystokinin, or CCK, according to research by Drs Misha Luyer and Wim Buurman of Maastricht University in Holland.
They found that fat-induced CCK can dampen inflammation in the gut. Rats fed a high-fat diet were protected against invasion with potentially lethal bacteria, unlike those fed a "healthy" low-fat diet.
CCK sends signals to the brain through the vagus nerve, the nerve that provides the electrical regulation for many internal organs, and which has also been recently shown to influence the immune system.
In response to CCK, vagus nerve endings in the gut release a messenger chemical, called acetylcholine, which can disable immune cells.
The authors suggest that triggering this fat-driven chain of events in patients might make major surgery safer by reducing inflammatory complications.
The doctors say that a body with a "food-deprived intestine" may be more vulnerable to a lethal inflammatory response, called septic shock, after a serious injury or infection.
Dr Luyer said that the work may have implications for other inflammatory diseases because immune cells called macrophages overproduce potentially lethal proteins called cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor, which also contribute to inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

The first round of the NFL draft will be finalized during the NFL scouting combine, which runs Feb. 22-Feb.
The Raiders reboot is in full effect.It's no secret that I have endorsed -- heartily -- new Raiders coach Dennis Allen keeping offensive coordinator Al Saunders in that same role because, well
Carson Palmer was intrinsically linked to Hue Jackson, what with the former Raiders coach engineering the trade-deadline deal that brought the two-time Pro Bowl quarterback to Oakland from Cincinna
It was one of the bigger question marks coming into the season and seen as one of the Raiders' biggest weaknesses.
The purported strength of the Raiders receiving corps was that there was no clear-cut No. 1 wide receiver. And as such, no divas living in their ranks.
