Last Modified: Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at 10:42 a.m.
More bear sightings have been reported in Davidson County, a spokesman with the Davidson County 911 Center said Tuesday morning
Telecommunicators received a call concerning a bear sighting at 6:35 a.m. Tuesday at Mount Calvary Road and Lexington Avenue near Thomasville Medical Center. Josh Myers, shift supervisor with the Davidson County 911 Center said, telecommunicators also received a call Monday afternoon in regard to a bear sighting at Midway School Road and N.C. Highway 109.
"I'm sure it's the same bear," Myers said.
Myers said officers have searched the areas and did not find a bear.
The county's 911 Center also received a call Thursday in regard to two bear sightings in and near Wallburg. Callers stated they saw a bear in the 500 block of Four Brooks Road off of Overbrook Drive, and on Green Valley Road off of Georgetown Road.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
A disability or injury can have far-reaching effects on a person's life. At Upstate University Hospital Community Campus, we treat the whole person by bringing together a team of highly trained professionals to work with every aspect of treatment and recovery.
Upstate University Hospital - Community Campus
4900 Broad Road
Syracuse, NY 13215
Map & directions
Phone: 315 492-5231
Fax: 315 492-5318
Our acute rehabilitation program is an inpatient program that provides ongoing care and prepares the patient to return home with assistance from family members or other health care providers. People find that our program is different from a routine hospital stay - we believe in helping people learn to do as much for themselves as possible. We focus on the person's abilities rather than their disabilities.
Our rehabilitation program treats patients with functional limitations resulting from:
- Stroke
- Brain injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Amputations
- Major multiple trauma
- Arthritis
- Hip and knee replacements
- Hip fracture
- Congenital deformities
- Degenerative neurological disorders
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Guillain-Barre Syndrome
- Parkinson's Disease
- Other progressive neurological impairments
Common problems benefiting from rehabilitation include:
- Balance and coordination impairments
- Inability to swallow
- Inability to move in bed or from one place to another
- Problems with self-care skills
- Cognitive/perceptual deficits or speech problems, in conjunction with physical limitations
- Inability to work or function in the community due to physical impairment
- Weakness or limited motion in arms and or legs
Treating the Individual
To be eligible for admission, a patient must:
- Require more than one form of therapy three hours a day/five days a week.
- Be medically stable.
- Have the potential to improve function or achieve independence.
- Demonstrate willingness, along with the family, to be involved in a rehabilitation program.
- Have the potential to return to the community.
A free pre-admission screening is provided to all referred patients by one of the members of the rehabilitation team. The program's physician is responsible for authorizing a patient's admission. In the event a denial occurs, alternative recommendations are provided.
Upstate University Hospital Community Campus's rehabilitation program is covered by most major medical insurance carriers, including Medicare.
Team Approach
The Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation team includes:
- Supervising rehabilitation physician
- Rehabilitation nurses
- Physical/Occupational/Speech therapist
- Social worker
- Dietitian
Family members are also an important part of the rehabilitation team. They are encouraged to assist in goal setting, to participate in the care of the patient and to attend scheduled therapy sessions with the patient. The family is educated on the patient's limitations and strengths, and how to help the person continue to improve at home.
The most important member of the team is the patient and success depends upon his/her commitment to reach their goal.
What is the difference between acute rehabilitation and skilled nursing rehabilitation?
- An acute rehabilitation program (ARP) is required to provide three hours of therapy five days a week whereas a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) is not.
- ARP is required to have a medical staff specially trained in rehabilitation medicine whereas an SNF is not.
- An Acute Rehab program is required to provide a multidisciplinary team approach to patient treatment whereas an SNF is not.
- An Acute Rehab program is required to provide 24 hour rehabilitation nursing whereas an SNF is not.
Because no two people will face an injury, illness or the process of aging in exactly the same way, our treatment programs are tailored to meet individual needs. After a comprehensive evaluation of the patient's needs, appropriate goals are set and a treatment program is implemented with the intention of returning the person to the community as independent as possible.
Patients participate in a daily schedule, including:
- One-on-one therapy
- Group treatment
- Community re-entry and adaptive leisure activities
- Patient and family education
- Training and support
Patient Admission Process
Referrals are accepted by the department from physicians and other health care providers, discharge planners, case managers, family members and patients themselves.

Rated 3.3 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by KC87 So cute! When I bought these, I had no idea they were soap dishes! I actually bought two to use as candleholders on each side of my entertainment hutch. The candles are only used for decoration and are never lit. The hutch is a dark espresso so the white really pops. I get so many compliments on them! June 28, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by CarlaC Great product but picture is misleading I know it´s just a soap dish, but the picture was so off that I had to post others. Don´t get me wrong, I´m satisfied with this product and I think it looks great, but it doesn´t look like the one on the site. First of all, there´s no volume and dimension in the lotus "petals". It´s pretty flat, with carvings as the petals´ contours. The proportions are also a little different. I actually prefer the design I received, because it´s more like a modern representation of a flower, less literal. However, other people could be disappointed. The material (alabaster) seems extremely durable. It´s also a little translucent, which creates a great visual effect (that you cannot see in the World Market picture). Overall, I think is has a unique design, it´s pretty, durable and functional. All at a great price. Just keep in mind that what you see on line is not what you get. January 25, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Lette1241 disappointing and fragile I ordered two of these dishes. When delivered, one was broken into about four large pieces (and many small) and the other had a piece that was clearly chipped off & repaired. Both were in bubble wrap so I don't know at what point the one was broken but apparently they are fragile. They also didn't look as nice as the one in the photo. December 29, 2014

Isn't there 500 or so members here?
Isn't there 500 or so members here?
I was mistaken on the amount of members on Serebii. Sorry 'bout the mix-up.
Any of our higher members would crush any of the higher members on any Pokemon site in the world, considering the others are all shit.
Okay, screw this. Considering you'll just keep this going constantly, I'm not even bothering to respond. I know that I'm right here, and that's all that matters.
No, I'm not forfeiting. Considering he's admin, wouldn't he just continually post and ban me if I win? There's no point in continuing.
I don't ban people for ANYTHING. You are not right and you're a pseudo. I would destroy any of the 14 year old pseudo pokemon forum debators you fellatiate.
furthermore, Philly > Pittsburgh
Why ban over a simple loss? We aren't jerks here, Zangoose.
which is why i dislike gaia @_~
So Zangoose, you state that you didn't like Serebii, yet you defend it and try to make us believe it's better than this place? Jesus, why did you leave in the first place if you liked it so much?
I don't like how it's run, because of the strictness, but there is no need to degrade it and say it's worse than this place. I left it over a month and a half ago and only go back to review fanfics.
Oh damn this is where it's at. Zangoose i don't know what juice you drink, but that's impolite to come in here and run your mouth about how other forum people would crush us in debates, then talk shit to the forum owner and when you get backed down you say "He'd ban me instead".
Fuck that. We make it a point to beat someone and make them leave instead of relying on mod powers. If you want any of those cunts to try and back your shit talking, send them here because i'm not going to a place where i can get banned after i make them cry.
Besides they debate like fucking cunts over there. If it's not googled school report facts being thrown at one another, it's recycled, stale and lame debates like religion and iraq. I'm not in the mood to debate with high school pseudo intellectual trash about pseudo intellectual shit that turns into them flaming my grammar. As soon as one of those big named people you mentioned posts a debate argument, it's overhyped because they have a reputation. I see PsiUmbreon post and no one tries to beat that, instead they just have a suck and fuck fest about how awesome he/she is. I see serebii's debate forum and i just label everyone a pseudo because it's exactly that. Wannabe intellectual shit that has been overanalyzed and overdebated for many years. They are not saying anything new or revolutionary, and they are repeating stuff they heard smart people say. Classic pseudoism.
Zangoose, if anyone ever has to flame someone's grammar, then they aren't worth my time, or should be worth anyone's time for that matter. I think my chum God said it best. Also, the rules are there for the nub populace like yourself. Anyone that knows anything about this forum knows the rules aren't important.
This is almost too pathetic for me to even give my two cents. Some n00b who just got here isn't going to tell us anythign about how bad we are, simply because you are a n00b. It might be different had you hung around and and seen stuff first and not got so cocky right off the bat. Otherwise this arguement is a victory for mainly god and whoever else.
Right, Fullmetal, at least you presented a coherent statement, despite its direction at my flaws, I can respect that. On the other hand, the above poster just chose to use the word n00b repeatedly and insult like I wasn't even here. It's a victory for God when he says something other than she's just some stupid cunt emo fat chick 14 year old one11!!!one11. I have the right to act how I will, whether it be cocky or not. You can say what you will about the argument, and disrespect Serebii all you want. However, just because I left the place and act like I'm not a 5-year-old retard that bows down to more senior members doesn't mean I hate Serebii. I still respect it, and it's the most popular forum for a reason.
because most people who post on pokemon forums suck and that forum is directed at people who suck. such is the reason.
So, it has the advertising ability to attract people from all ranges of experience.
all ranges of experience in being shitty and boring
THe reason people go there is because it produces the most pokemon information. People go there and think, "Oh, this is a great place to discuss pokemon, where is the forum?" So they join, and son on and so forth, they ask a question or two, and most end up leaving after 48 hours, because they find out its so goddamn boring to talk about pokemon all the time, so they either go to the "Off-topic forum", or whatever it's called there, or leave the forum and go to a less Pokemon themed one, with much less strictness, such as this one.
Repeatedly? I said n00b twice in that post. Twice as in two times, what will it take to beat it in that thick head of yours?
It has the advertising abillity to be retarded and repetitive. Like, that 'do people eat pokemon?' thread in serebii has popped up so many times that no one even bothers opening them anymore.
What's the use in going to a forum so large that you don't know an eighth of the people there? Quality is better than quantity. Every single thread in the off topic section of pokedream holds a lot of stuff more deserving of our time then those in serebii.
Damn a miltank burger sounds good right now.
And a Farfetch'd with leeks on the side.
I think you mean a ROAST farfetch'd. Or a Farfetch'd pot pie.

Selected PublicationsResearch Summary
Dr. Zheng is one of the lead researchers on a project to use immunized sera from vaccinated patients to identify candidate pancreatic cancer associated proteins against which the immune system has been activated. Through this project, he has identified a molecular pathway that underlies the tumor-stroma interaction in the tumor''s microenvironment of pancreatic cancer. His current research interest is to further explore the roles of the pancreatic tumor''s microenvironment in developing immune tolerance and in supporting tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. His long-term goal is to develop novel therapeutics for pancreatic cancer by targeting tumor''s microenvironment and to conduct innovative "first in human" clinical trials.
He is also the lead investigator on the development of vaccines and immune based therapies as pre-operative, post-operative, and long-term maintenance treatments for patients with pancreatic cancer. His clinical research interest is focused on developing multidisciplinary therapeutics in the pre-operative/neoadjuvant setting for patients with pancreatic cancer.
Dr. Zheng is also one of the lead investigators on the development of vaccine-based therapies in combination with surgery and chemotherapy for patients with colorectal cancer.

Didier Reynders pleased with the planned disarmament and demobilisation of the M23 militia
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs Didier Reynders is pleased that the terms for the disarmament and demobilisation of the M23 militia group in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo have been signed in Nairobi, Kenya.
The M23 militia has undertaken to put a definitive end to its participation in armed conflict. In exchange, the government of the DRC will not pursue the members of the M23 for their insurrection. However, the rebels will not go unpunished for their crimes against humanity, war crimes, and for the sexual violence they have inflicted.
Minister Reynders is also pleased that the M23 rebels will not be allowed back into the army of the DRC. He believes that by allowing undisciplined people back into the army it will once again face discipline-related issues. Didier Reynders also believes that it is a good thing that an end has finally come to the habit of allowing former rebels back into the army.
The minister hopes that the rule of law can be reinstated and that the situation in the east of the DRC will remain stable. In this context it is also encouraging that fighters are deserting other armed groups and that operations are taking place against the FDLR (Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda).
Didier Reynders applauds the efforts being made in the region under the leadership of Uganda. Further to discussions having taken place previously in the Ugandan capital of Kampala, the efforts made have contributed to achieving this positive outcome.

We appreciate you taking the time to help us.
Click an airline logo to find out about their services.
We take great pride in carrying your bags safely and speedily to your final destination but if something goes wrong we'll pull out all the stops to fix it as quickly as possible.
The sooner you report a problem to us the quicker we can resolve it. That's why if your bags haven't arrived on time and we have been unable to notify you, it's really important that you tell us about it while you're still at the airport.
When you report a problem we'll give you a baggage file reference number which is a series of five letters and five numbers such as JFKBA12345 (this is different to the baggage receipt you were given when checking your bags in).
As soon as we find your bag we will return it to you for free to any address you choose. (This service is not available in some countries due to local government restrictions but we will advise you if this applies.) Most bags are reunited with their owners within 72 hours.
Before making a claim, please ensure you have told us about your damage or loss and have a reference number (e.g. the baggage file reference number from a delayed bag report):
If you haven't already done so, report your problem now
If you believe you have lost contents or had contents damaged during a US baggage inspection you can claim compensation directly from the US Transport Security Administration (TSA):
A personal travel insurance policy will likely provide a greater level of cover than we can offer. We therefore recommend that you contact your insurer before making a claim directly with us. We will provide you with a written report, on request, to send to your insurer as proof of loss, damage or delay to your baggage, in support of your claim.
If you do not have travel insurance that covers you for any relevant loss, you may claim from us for the following reasons within the set deadlines:
If you need to purchase essential items because your baggage is delayed for an extended period of time, please do so, remembering to keep all your receipts, and then submit them to us in the 'On Arrival' section on our baggage compensation claim form. We will reimburse you as quickly as possible.
|Reason for claim
|Deadline for claim
|Baggage reported as missing for more than three days
|21 days from the date of the flight
|Expenses incurred because of a delay to a bag
|21 days from the date of the flight
|Damage to a bag
|7 days from the date you received your bag
|Missing or damaged baggage contents

Call us to check the status of an existing claim
Whilst we will make every attempt to ensure your baggage is handled with care, you should know that British Airways' liability for loss, delay or damage to baggage is limited unless a higher value is declared in advance and additional charges paid.
The extent of airline liability is not based on the weight of the bag nor its value. British Airways does not accept liability for fragile, valuable, perishable articles or baggage which is packed in damaged or unsuitable containers.
Under the Conditions of Carriage we accept no liability for the loss of jewellery, other valuables and money contained in checked baggage. You are advised to keep valuables, important documents and money either on your person or in your hand baggage.
We strongly recommend that you obtain adequate travel insurance cover prior to your journey. Use the following links for further information:

ZF-11597: Properly escape event attribute values in HtmlElement view helper
{{Zend_View_Helper_HtmlElement}} does not properly substitute double quotes with single quotes in event attribute values. Even if it would work, I think that we should still escape quotes by html entity numbers rather than substituting them from single quotes to double quotes or vice versa. For example JSON standard says that strings are written into double quotes, so substituting from double quotes to single quotes is wrong I think. Please see my patch and let me know if I'm missing something. This issue is also related to ZF-9926.

`Forty Flames to Follow' in 2013-14: Lukasz Adamczyk
June 10, 2013
CHICAGO- As one of UIC's most active student-athletes, Lukasz Adamcyzk from the men's gymnastics team wears many hats. His accomplishments both in and out of the gym made him an easy choice to be recognized as one of "Forty Flames to Follow" heading into the 2013-14 athletic season. The summer series, which debuted on Monday, will alphabetically feature 40 returning UIC student-athletes once per day until early August.
Adamczyk was one-of-eight UIC men's gymnasts that individually advanced to the 2013 NCAA Championships in University Park, Pa., in April. A standout on the pommel horse, Adamczyk advanced to the second day of the NCAA Championships after producing a 14.850 score during the event on day one. It marked his third-highest score on the pommel horse on the season.
Heading into his senior season, Adamczyk will be relied upon to be one of UIC's leaders. The Flames lost the services of David Ishida, Dan Zerbel and Justin Maxwell, all of which joined Adamczyk as individual participants at the NCAA Championships.
Outside of the gym, Adamczyk has been a model student-athlete. In April 2012, he was named a recipient of the prestigious "Elite 89 Award," a standard that recognizes a model student-athlete, one who has reached the championship level, while also achieving a top academic standard. Entering his senior year in UIC's Biochemistry curriculum, Adamczyk carries a 3.67 cumulative GPA. At the annual "Night of Champions" event, which honors UIC's academic achievement, the Deerfield, Ill., native earned the Avery Brundage Scholarship for the second-straight year.
"Lukasz has been one of the most impressive representatives of UIC Gymnastics during his career," said head coach Charley Nelson. "Few college aged student-athletes are as driven and organized as Lukasz. Add to that his athletic talent and he's even more impressive. I'm not sure how he does it."
This summer, Adamczyk is serving as a campus tour guide during orientation sessions. As NCAA.com revealed at the national championships in April, Adamczyk, who can be spotted doing plenty of dancing at home gymnastics meets, also does plenty of "clowning around" on the side.

National Archaeological Museum (MANN) - Naples
The history of this Museum began in 1734 with the arrival of Charles of Bourbon.
His son, Ferdinand, decided to construct a magnificent Museum in which to hold objects and items found in the excavations in and around Vesuvius and the rich Farnese collection.
The actual Museum was located on the old site of the Palazzo degli Studi which was restored firstly by Fuga and then, later, by Schiantarelli.
With the unification of Italy the Museum became national and was enriched by new acquisitions and a reorganisation of existing collections.
In 1957 the picture gallery was transferred to Reggia di Capodimonte and, thereby, today's National Museum was realised; one of the most richly endowed Archaeological Museums in existence and particularly rich in Greek-Roman holdings.
The Epigraphy Collection: this contains documents in Greek, Oscan, Latin and various other pre-Roman languages.
Among these are both political and religious texts and a selection of inscriptions found in the area of Vesuvius.
The Egyptian Collection: testifying to the relationship between Egypt and the Roman world from the 4th century B.C., this collection includes a variety of Egyptian artefacts including mummified humans, a mummified crocodile and a statue of Anubis from Cuma.
The Farnese Collection: this is made up of over 400 sculptures, paintings, gems and precious materials.
Of the sculptures one of the most noted is the enormous Tirannicidi, a copy of an original Athenean work from the Villa Adriana in Tivoli.
Other noted pieces include the Hercules of Farnese and the Bull of Farnese.
Frescoes from the ville vesuviane (villas in the Vesuvius region) are also displayed as are the sculptures from the "Villa dei Papiri" (Villa of Papyri).
In all there are 50 marble sculptures and 21 statues which exhibit a Roman interpretation of an artistic style which originated in Lysippus.
In one particular section, the so-called "Secret Cabinet", are displayed various objects of erotic art found at Pompeii during excavations there.
Access to the section with numbers limited at the entrance reservation required.
The Museum also frequently hosts shows and exhibitions of contemporary art.

text: Uno. Dos. Tres. Catorce. That translates as one, two, three, fourteen. That is the correct math for a rock and roll band. For in art, and love, and rock and roll, the whole had better equal much more than the sum of its parts, or else you're just rubbing two sticks together in search of a fire. A great rock band searches for the same kind of combustible force that fueled the expansion of the universe after the big bang. You want the earth to shake and spit fire, you want the sky to split apart and for God to pour out. It's embarrassing to want so much and expect so much from music, except sometimes it happens. The Sun Sessions, Highway 61, Sergeant Pepper's, the Band, Robert Johnson, Exile on Main Street, Born to Run - oops, I meant to leave that one out. The Sex Pistols, Aretha Franklin, the Clash, James Brown, and the power of public enemies - it takes a nation of millions to hold us back. This was music meant to take on not only the powers that be, but on a good day, the universe and God himself, if he was listening. It demands accountability, and U2 belongs on this list. It was the early '80s. I went with Pete Townshend - always one to catch the first whiff of those about to unseat us, to a club in London. There they were: a young Bono, single-handedly pioneering the Irish mullet. The Edge - what kind of name was that? Adam and Larry. I was listening to the last band of whom I would be able to name all of its members. They had an exciting show and a big, beautiful sound. They lifted the roof. We met afterwards, and they were nice young men, and they were Irish. Irish! And this would play an enormous part in their success in the states, for while the English occasionally have their refined sensibilities to overcome, we Irish and Italians have no such problem. We come through the door fists and hearts first. U2, with the dark, chiming sound of heaven at their command, which of course is the sound of unrequited love and longing, their greatest theme, the search for God intact; this was a band that wanted to lay claim to not only this world, but had their eyes on the next one too. Now, they're a real band - each member plays a vital part, and I believe they actually practice some form of democracy. Toxic poison in a band setting. In Iraq, maybe - in rock, no. Yet, they survive. They have harnessed the time bomb that exists at the heart of every rock band, and usually explodes, as we've seen regularly from this stage. But the seem to have innately understood the primary rule of rock band job security: Hey, asshole - the other guy is more important than you think he is. They are both a step forward, and direct descendents of the great bands who believed rock music could shake things up in the world, who dared to have faith in their audience, and who believed if they played their best, it would bring out the best in you. They believed in pop-stardom and the big-time. Now, this requires foolishness and a calculating mind. It also requires a deeply-held faith in the work you're doing, and in its powers to transform. U2 hungered for it all, and built a sound, and they wrote the songs that demanded it. They're the keepers of some of the most beautiful sonic architecture in rock and roll. The Edge, the Edge, the Edge, the Edge. He is a rare and true guitar original, and one of the subtlest guitar heroes of all time. He's dedicated to ensemble playing, and he subsumes his guitar ego in the group. But do not be fooled. Think Jimi Hendrix, Chuck Berry, Neil Young, Pete Townshend - guitarists who defined the sound of their band and their times. If you play like them, you sound like them. If you are playing those rhythmic two-note sustained fourths, drenched in echo, you are going to sound like the Edge, my son. Go back to the drawing board, and chances are, you won't have much luck. There are only a handful of guitar stylists who can create a world with their instrument, and he's one of them. The Edge's guitar-playing creates enormous space and vast landscapes. It is thrilling - a heartbreaking sound that hangs over you like the unsettled sky. In the turf it stakes out, it is inherently spiritual. It is grace, and it is a gift. Now, all of this has to be held down by something. The deep sureness of Adam Clayton's bass and the elegance of Larry Mullen's drumming hold the band down while propelling it forward. It's in U2's great rhythm section that the band finds its sexuality and its dangerousness. Listen to "Desire," "She Moves in Mysterious Ways," the pulse of "With or Without You" - together, Larry and Adam create the element that suggests the ecstatic possibilities of that other kingdom - the one below the earth and below the belt, that no great rock band can lay claim to the title without. Now, Adam always strikes me as the professorial one, the sophisticated member. He creates not only the musical but the physical stability on his side of the stage. The tone and depth of his bass playing has allowed the band to move from rock to dance music and beyond. One of the first things I noticed about U2, was that underneath the guitar and the bass, they have these very modern rhythms going on, and rather than a straight two and four, Larry often plays with a lot of syncopation, and that connects the band to a lot of modern dance textures. The drums often sounded high and tight, and he was swinging down there, and this gave the band a unique profile, and allowed their rock textures to soar above on a bed of his rhythms. Now Larry, of course, besides being an incredible drummer, bears the burden of being the band's requisite "good-looking" member. Something we somehow overlooked in the E-Street Band. We have to settle for "charismatic." The girls love on Larry Mullen. I have a female assistant that would like to sit on Larry's drum stool. A male one, too. We all have our crosses to bear. Bono - where do I begin? Jeans designer, soon to be World Bank operator, just plain operator, seller of the Brooklyn Bridge, oh no, he played under the Brooklyn Bridge, right. Soon to be mastermind of the Bono Burger franchise, where more than one billion stories will be told by a crazy Irishman. I realize it's a dirty job, and somebody has to do it - but don't quit your day-job yet, my friend. You're pretty good at it, and a sound this big needs somebody to ride herd over it. And ride herd over it he does. He has a voice bighearted and open, thoroughly decent, no matter how hard he tries, and he's a great front-man - against the odds. He is not your mom's standard skinny, ex-junkie archetype. He has the physique of a rugby player - well, an ex-rugby player. Shaman, shyster; one of the greatest and most endearingly naked messianic complexes in rock and roll. God bless you, man. It takes one to know one, of course. You see, every good Irish and Italian-Irish front-man knows that before James Brown, there was Jesus. So hold the McDonald arches on the stage-set, boys. We are not ironists. We are creations of the heart, and of the earth, and of the stations of the cross. There's no getting out of it. He is gifted with an operatic voice and a beautiful falsetto, rare among strong rock singers. But most important, his is a voice shot through with self-doubt, that's what makes that big sound work. It is this element of Bono's talent, along with his beautiful lyric-writing, that gives the often celestial music of U2 its fragility and its realness. It is the questioning, the constant questioning in Bono's voice, where the band stakes its claim to its humanity, and declares its commonality with us. Now, Bono's voice often sounds like it's shouting not overtop the band, but from deep within it: "Here we are, Lord, this mess, in your image." He delivers all of this with great drama, and an occasional smirk that says, "Kiss me, I'm Irish." He's one of the great frontmen of the past 20 years. He's also one of the few musicians who's brought his personal faith and the ideals of his band into the real world, in a way that remains true to rock's earliest implications of freedom, and connection, and the possibility of something better. Now the band's beautiful songwriting, "Pride in the Name of Love," "Sunday Bloody Sunday," "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," "One," "Where the Streets Have No Name," "Beautiful Day," reminds us of the stakes that the band always plays for. It's an incredible songbook. In their music, you hear the spirituality as home and as quest. How do you find God unless he's in your heart, in your desire, in your feet? I believe this is a big part of what has kept the band together all these years. You see, bands get formed by accident, but they don't survive by accident. It takes will, intent, a sense of shared purpose, and a tolerance for your friends' fallibilities, and they of yours. And that only evens the odds. U2's not only evened the odds, but they've beaten them, by continuing to do their finest work, and remaining at the top of their game and the charts for 25 years. I feel a great affinity for these guys as people as well as musicians. Well, there I was, sitting on my couch, in my pajamas, with my eldest son. He was watching TV. I was doing one of my favorite things. I was tallying up all the money I passed up in endorsements over the years, and thinking of all the fun I could have had with it. Suddenly, I hear, "Uno, dos, tres, catorce." I look up - but instead of the silhouettes of the hippie wannabees bouncing around in the iPod commercial, I see my boys. Oh my God! They've sold out! Now, what I know about the iPod is this: it is a device that plays music. Of course, the new song sounded great, my pals were doing great, but methinks I hear the footsteps of my old tape operator Jimmy Iovene somewhere. Wiley. Smart. Now, personally, I live an insanely expensive lifestyle that my wife barely tolerates. I burn money, and that calls for huge amounts of cashflow. But, I also have a ludicrous image of myself that keeps me from truly cashing in. You can see my problem. Woe is me. So the next morning, I call John Landau, or as I refer to him, the American Paul McGuinness, and I say, "Did you see that iPod thing?" And he says, "Yes," and he says, "And I hear they didn't take any money." And I say, "They didn't take any money?" And he says, "No." And I think, "Smart. Wiley Irish guys. Anybody can do an ad and take the money. But to do the ad and not take the money - that's smart. That's wiley." I tell John, I say, "Hey John, I want you to call up Bill Gates, or whoever is behind this thing, and float this: a red, white, and blue iPod, signed by Bruce 'the Boss' Springsteen. And remember - no matter how much money he offers, don't take it." At any rate, after that evening, for the next month or so, I hear emanating from my lovely 14-year-old son's room, day after day, down the hall, calling out in a voice that has recently dropped very low, "Uno, dos, tres, catorce." The correct math for rock and roll. Thank you boys. This band has carried their faith in the great inspirational and resurrective power of rock and roll with them. They've never faltered, only a little bit. They've believed in themselves, but more importantly, they've believed in you too. Thank you Bono, Edge, Adam, and Larry. Please welcome U2 to the rock and roll hall of fame.

From TV's new golden age to Warhol and vintage DVDs, our picks of the season
Fans of Showtime's Homeland itching for the start of the second season (September 30) may find that show's Damien Lewis even more unsettling in this lavish and addictive 2002-2003 miniseries based on John Galsworthy's novels. Lewis stars as wealthy Soames Forsyte, whose thwarted passion, stilted emotions and rigid rules of conduct wreak havoc on his own life and his family's. This second serialization of the Victorian-Edwardian drama (the '60s BBC version led to the creation of Masterpiece Theatre) is marked by Lewis' even darker Soames—and the joy of seeing sets and costumes in full color. Series 1 focuses on Soames and his rival cousin; Series 2 moves into the 1920s to follow their children's equally challenged generation.

Premieres 10 PM ET September 17 on NBC
The funny premise of this surprise hit—a group of elderly Brits are forced to "outsource" their retirement to India—is bolstered by an all-star cast, including Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson and Maggie Smith. Dench, especially, sparkles as the expats' septuagenarian sex symbol.

Director Andrea Arnold's take on Emily Bronte's gothic novel is a far cry from the romanticism of the Laurence Olivier/Merle Oberon classic. Arnold's emotionally and physically brutalized Heathcliff—ingeniously envisioned as African— becomes a shockingly cruel adult himself in a version that explores the darkest corners of the book. Solomon Glave and Shannon Beer (left) star as the young Heathcliff and Cathy, James Howson and Kaya Scodelario as the older doomed lovers.

A third woman to watch: songwriter Scarlet O'Connor (Clare Bowen).
Premieres 10 PM October 10 on ABC
There's never been a heroine quite like Louisa Leyton—spunky, pragmatic and determined to break through class and gender boundaries to become the most sought-after chef in Edwardian London.

Ken Burns' latest documentary explores "the worst environmental disaster in American history," the clouds of dust that turned the American Plains uninhabitable in the 1930s. Historians and survivors recall the man-made catastrophe, set in motion when a rush to plant crops on arid land eliminated native grasses that had held the soil in place. Drought and high winds followed, leaving residents to cope with sandstorms and a fatal "dust pneumonia," while whole herds of livestock died of suffocation. Burns examines cause and awful effects—including the mass, desperate exodus and subsequent harassment of "Okies"—with characteristic skill.

All else being equal, is an optimal series of ideal springs stronger and more reliable then a single optimal and ideal spring of equal length?
Is a series of springs compared to a single spring of equal length stronger and more reliable [closed]
closed as not constructive by David Z♦ Mar 30 '12 at 9:43
As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
An ideal spring is characterized by its constant in Hooke's Law, $k$. When you start putting them in combination, the resultant system behaves as a spring with a different constant, I'll call $k'$. The combinatory laws and justifications for them can be established easily.
The principle of an ideal spring is that when its end is displaced by change in position $\Delta x$ the force from the spring changes by $\Delta F = -k \Delta x$. If you attach one spring onto the end of another one, then for every $\Delta x$ the end of the spring system moves, each spring expands or contracts correspondingly by $\Delta x /2$. Then, since they are connected in series, the force maintained by both springs as well as the spring system are all equal.
Thus the new spring constant of the attached springs is $k'=k/n$ where $n$ is the number of springs connected.
Here, all springs are perturbed by the same $\Delta x$ and the forces from all of the individual spring add to produce the force of the spring system. Thus, the new spring constant of the system will be $k'=n k$.
Thus, it would be better to have your ideal springs strung together in series if you desired a lower spring constant. There is also the fact that real springs will break at some terminal value of $\Delta x$ and this will be increased in the case that they are strung together, but the breaking force would be the same. Nonetheless, these are not real springs, they are ideal springs, so the only difference is that the spring constant is decreased according to the above equation and argument.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 14 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by PrincessFiona60 Just Beautiful Wanted curtains with a woodland feel and these fit the bill. The fabric is lush and sturdy. Easy to hang, good construction. October 19, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by cbur646 Comforting, Cozy Look These curtains warm the look of my living room. Just by changing my solid color drapes (which I loved) to the Tamara curtain with its color (but not over bearing color), I feel I'm in a totally redecorated room. Everything else has stayed the same in my living room, but these curtains make a huge difference in the feel of the room. If you're afraid of color (like I was by using a solid beige drape for years) - these curtains will surprise you by adding pattern and color in a very pleasing way. Lastly, I ordered on-line Sunday night and received Wednesday afternoon. March 19, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by DecorMama Just what I wanted Gorgeous curtains at an amazing price. The colors were just what I wanted for my dining room. LOVE these and am so pleased with all of the curtains I have purchased from WM. October 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by VintageEm Great value! Picture is very true to colors. They are lined, but still let in a little light. These were exactly the colors that I was looking for! I have 2 sliding doors that are not a patio size, but smaller. I bought 6, and took them to a seamstress. She sewed 3 together and added a pre-made sew on tape that creates the look of a pinch pleat. It was a very economical way to get the look of custom pinch pleat drapes. October 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by mlyn92 Tamara Floral Curtain is beautiful The Tamara Floral Curtain is beautiful when combined with the existing colors in my bedroom. The blues and greens are just the right shade, so they don't blend in or jump out at you. The curtains themselves are a great material, and they don't block out all light, but do well to disperse and dim the light. April 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by NickiDub Perfection! I went to my local World Market a couple of months ago and when I saw these curtains I almost cried! They are exactly what I wanted! I was SURE that I would never find anything in the color I wanted, let alone all of the exact colors I was looking for in one curtain (Teal, green and taupe)! The quality is impeccable, they are nicely lined and they have just the size I needed online. I even bought a couple of extra panels to make throw pillows with for the sofa! I could not be any happier with every aspect of these curtains! March 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by StayBay love love love these curtains I've been eyeballing these curtains for months before buying. They are a nice heavy weight, are lined and look awesome with my cream and teal blue walls. If you are thinking about these curtains, I recommend just buying them online. I waited for a sale, but then they ran out of the length I needed. So, I went to the actual store and found out that all stores are only stocking the 84" now so you only have the online option if you need a different size. December 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Retrogal How did Cost Plus know exactly what I wanted??! I had gone into Cost Plus to get some spices and other goodies with my niece when she pointed out some drapes. I saw these and they were just what I had been looking for! I was thrilled with the color and quality for such an exceptional price. They look beautiful in my home and my husband likes them very much, too! Thanks World Market for helping make my house beautiful! October 10, 2013

TOURNAMENT CENTRAL | 2013 Fullerton Regional Guide Fullerton Regional Bracket- Day 2
FULLERTON, Calif. - Starting right-hander Trevor Williams went 7 2/3 innings and James McDonald drove in three runs to lead the Arizona State University baseball team to a 4-3 win in the opening game of the Fullerton Regional on Friday in Fullerton, Calif.
Williams (6-6) allowed just three runs and struck out four as he earned his first win since April 19.
Right-hander Ryan Burr walked the leadoff batter in the ninth to put the winning run at the plate, but recorded three consecutive outs, including a game-ending groundout to one of the nation's elite hitters, DJ Peterson.
Burr (12) recorded his 12th save of the season and now holds the freshmen single-season record for saves.
McDonald led the team with three RBI, including a two-run homer in the bottom of the fifth that proved to be the difference, and center fielder Kasey Coffman scored the first two runs of the game to pace the Sun Devils.
The Lobos took a one-run lead in the opening frame on a RBI single by catcher Mitch Garver, but ASU countered with one run in the bottom of the first and added another in the third inning to take a 2-1 advantage.
Coffman, who took a leadoff walk to begin the bottom of the first, moved to third on a throwing error by Lobos starting pitcher Josh Walker on a failed pickoff attempt before he scored on a sacrifice fly to left field by McDonald to tie the game at one run apiece.
ASU took its first lead of the game after Coffman knocked a two-out double to right field and scored on the next at-bat as third baseman Michael Benjamin's line drive was misplayed by shortstop Jared Holley.
Peterson tied the game, 2-2, with a sacrifice fly to right field in the fifth after he came to the plate with runners on first and third and one out. Catcher Max Rossiter then caught Sam Haggerty stealing second to end the frame.
McDonald hit a two-run homer over the right-field fence as ASU retook the lead in the bottom of the fifth, 4-2. The Devils again capitalized on a Lobos error as an errant throw by Holley on a groundball allowed Benjamin to reach first and McDonald followed with his sixth home run of the season.
Williams struck out Peterson for the first out of the eighth inning, but Garver hit a solo home run with one out in the top of the eighth to cut the Devils' lead to one, 4-3.
Williams then induced a groundout before hitting a batter and walking one to put the winning run on base. Burr replaced Williams and struck the next batter out looking to end the frame and strand two on.
ASU handed NM starting right-hander Walker (11-1) his first loss of the season. Walked went 7 1/3 innings and gave up four runs on four hits and four walks.
Game Notes:
Williams came into the game with four career postseason innings pitched...it was the first postseason appearance for Burr...the Devils did not commit an error in the game and are now 14-2 this season when they are flawless in the field...ASU improved to 9-7 in one-run games this season.
Postseason Notes:
Head coach Tim Esmay: 10-4 all-time in the postseason, including 7-0 in regional play
All-time: 165-70*
Williams: 1-0
ASU is 7-0 in Regionals since 2003 when winning the first game of the Regional
* Postseason appearance and victories in 2007 later vacated due to NCAA sanctions. Numbers do not reflect vacations.
Up Next:
ASU will face No. 5 national seed Cal State Fullerton Saturday night. First pitch will be at 8:05 p.m. (PT) and will be televised on ESPNU. The contest will be also broadcast by the MidFirst Bank Sun Devil IMG Network on NBC Sports Radio AM 1060 and on the All-Access Player on thesundevils.com. ASU will start freshman left-hander Ryan Kellogg in Saturday's game.

Help my insignia ns-dv4g Dosen't recognize a microphone
hi i have an nsignia ns-dv4g and i love it
i updated to the newest firmware and love
all the additional features .
I never wanted to use the in line record feature; but
recently i wanted record some lectures. i bought a simple
plug in mike but it seems like nothing's recording. am i doing
something wrong.
this is the mike i bought http://cgi.ebay.com/Mini-Microphone-...3%3A1|294%3A50
i heard that you need a powered mike for it to work correctly
plz help
|[Remove Advertisement]
Been there and back, and here are my findings...
The NS-DV4G cannot power a microphone to record from the line-in jack, it simply does not have the wattage. The mic will need it's own power supply (via battery or powered amp/mixer.)
For over a year at work, I've been recording the audio from video taped interviews and burning them to CD. The player records a high quality WMA file directly from the video deck's stereo headphone jack, then I drag the file through the USB to my desktop in order to burn directly to CD.
Without a powered audio source, the NS-DV4G's recording levels are barely audible. Despite it's advertising, the Insignia's ability to record is just not a primary function.
Your mic seems to be designed for a desktop/laptop computer, which uses a powered audio card.
To record lectures or ambient sound, I suggest using a cheap microcassette. Or if you want to listen to them on your mp3 player, you may need a little digital recorder from an office supply store or online (starting under $60 bucks.) But unfortunately, many digital recorders record in propierty audio formats. You may not be able to simply drop and drag the file into your mp3 player without some audio conversion done in your computer.
Hope that helps!

The Obama administration has always shown support for education in the United States. President Barack Obama calls on congress to pass education reforms for his Obama-Biden plan. These education plans that President Obama pushes through promise to restore the quality of America's public education and will ensure the future of America through children's creativity and adequate teaching. Some of the plans included in the Obama-Biden plan include the Zero to Five plan, No Child Left Behind Reform, and the Reward Teachers plan. For President Obama, rewarding good teachers is very important because the teacher is the most important factor in the child's learning in the classroom. Research confirms that teachers play a very important role in the success of students.
It is the teachers who are able to reach out to students most often, and they have a very challenging role in the educating and shaping of the students minds. This is why President Obama insists on improving the performance standards of teachers. He wants more accountability for teachers, and one of the ways to push teachers towards quality performance is to give them rewards such as a higher salary. The President wants teachers to be trained and allowed to perform like the professionals that they are. This new approach to education plans to increase the teacher's salary up to as much as $150,000 annually, if possible.
