As previously reported, Toyota will show up at the upcoming 2012 Paris Motor Show to introduce the new Auris, the new C-segment model from the Japanese giant that uses all the stylistic elements adopted by the carmaker for its most recent products. The new Auris looks more dynamic and sportier than the outgoing generation thanks to the exterior styling, which also includes modern day time running LED lights and a huge panoramic glass. In this new set of images we can better appreciate the new design of this hatchback, which was developed to maximize its aerodynamic efficiency.
Engine range will made of two diesel and two petrol units as well as a full hybrid powertrain, meaning that the new generation of the Auris will offer several different versions whose power will range from 90 to 136 horsepower. All these units will be mated with a brand new 6-speed transmission which will help keeping its CO2 emission down.
The interior offers high quality materials and plenty of space for people and things alike, with a load capacity of no less than 1335 liters when the rear bench of seats is folded. In Europe, 10 exterior colours will be available with foue new shades: Avant-Garde Bronze, Dark Steel, Blue and Pearl White, with the latter that can be chosen for Auris Hybrid only. The new Auris range will be built by Toyota Motor Manufacturing UK at the Burnaston factory in Derbyshire - the same one that assembles the Avensis - reinforcing the company's commitment to its European operations.

Baños, A. Frequency Domain Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of The Uterine Cervix During Cervical Ripening. 2008, University of Zurich, Faculty of Medicine.
Objective: Preterm labor is a common obstetric complication.
Clinical evaluation of cervical ripening to predict
preterm labor has a substantial inter- and intraobserver
variability. We used frequency domain near-infrared
spectroscopy (FD-NIRS) to non-invasively investigate the
changes of the optical properties (i.e., absorption and
scattering of light) in the uterine cervix during druginduced cervical ripening.
Methods: Ten volunteers scheduled for abortion were examined. Optical properties of the uterine cervix were
measured and physiological parameters were calculated
prior to and after induction of cervical ripening using
topical misoprostol. Mean relative changes, standard
error of the mean as well as statistical significance using
the t-test were calculated for oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin,
total hemoglobin, oxygen-saturation, and water. The wavelength-dependent decrease of scattering (scatter power)
was calculated by an exponential fit and tested with the
Wilcoxon test.
Results: Misoprostol induced a decrease in total hemoglobin
of 21+/-6% (P<0.05), a decrease in oxyhemoglobin of
22+/-6% (P<0.05), a decrease in deoxyhemoglobin of
16+/-11% and an increase of 368% (P<0.005) in water
content. The scatter power was significantly lower
(P<0.05) after cervical ripening.
Conclusion: Our results show that FD-NIRS is a promising
diagnostic tool to detect changes in cervical concentrations
of hemoglobin and water. A severe tissue edema, probably due to a hormone-induced inflammatory process, seems to be important for cervical ripening. The reduction in total hemoglobin is likely to be a consequence of the increased water content of the tissue resulting in a dramatic increase of the distance between vessels. We propose this technology to assess the cervical ripening and
eventually to predict preterm labor. Lasers Surg. Med.

Photo Shoot
From Grand Theft Wiki
Revision as of 23:26, 5 November 2008 by Baronsamedi11 (talk)
|This page needs to be cleaned up to meet the standards of Grand Theft Wiki.
Playboy informs Niko that he is catching flak on the streets because some punk is accusing him of being a snitch. He comes to find out that the same cat that is slandering him has been snitching himself and he needs to be dealt with. After giving a rather confusing description, Playboy gives Niko a new phone with a camera option on it and then tells him to go to the basketball courts where he hangs out and take a photo of the people there. He would then call Niko back and inform him as to which one is the snitch. The best way to take him out, rather than go in swinging is to stay by your car and snipe him through the fence. Then just hop back in the car and drive off. Mission Accomplished!

Poinsettia Napkin Ring Crochet Pattern
This year, I would like to kickoff the Christmas craft with this beautiful and elegant Poinsettia Napkin Ring. Red never fails to represent Christmas. These crochet red poinsettia napkin rings will sure brings the holiday atmosphere into your house. Your guests will be so pleased to be invited over for an exquisite dinner during the festival.
Recalling all the Christmas crafts I've made in the past, 2 among a good number of them are poinsettia this is the 3rd poinsettia I have made. I crochet a poinsettia coasters with yo-yo puff in year 2010, and a made a bunch of fabric poinsettias in 2011. What happened to 2012? Why did I skip making poinsettia in 2012?? Oh… I was busy with quilting and never did any poinsettia, I just used the fabric poinsettias for the holiday decor since they were well kept and still in good condition… what a good excuse 😉
These crochet poinsettia napkin rings are easy to adapt into other embellishment, you may add a brooch pin instead of the band of the napkin ring to make a poinsettia brooch, likewise, you can add a hair band and turn it into hair accessories. You can even make a bigger poinsettia by using yarn, starched it a little and hang on the tree, frame it up to be a Christmas decor, etc….. Change the color of the yarn or lace thread, you will end up with a different flower to suit your occasion, for example: white, gold, silver, for a wedding event.

This gun is as realistic as a paintball gun can get. The attention to detail is scary. easily mistakable for the real thing. I have shot over 500 rounds with this RAM and it has yet to jam or malfunction in any way. A must buy for anyone interested in a more realistic paintball experience. I prefer the dust balls and rubber balls over the paint only because their is no need for clean up. Buy it now great price!1

In 2012, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Rae Armantrout wrote a charismatic (a.k.a. full of the dry wit that can also be seen in her poetry) op-ed piece about San Diego, a "metropolis without charisma." Of course Armantrout praised the weather and even noted a type of silence beneath the roar of cars and trucks in constant motion; the most notable praise for San Diego, however, may be in what Armantrout describes as a "blankness of this town," meaning that one does not step into something overly grandiose/staged nor left completely bare of charm. Here are just a few individuals/collectives who are adding a little bit more noise to "America's Finest City":
Music-blog Owl and Bear offers event reviews, podcasts, and interviews with both local and out-of-town performers. The blog also has a lively social media presence where it announces concerts with at least a month's notice and occasionally offers tickets to local shows, which makes being involved in the music scene easily accessible.
There might be something about owls, music, and San Diego, but this should not be anything to complain about. Blk Owl is a collaborative invested in bringing together musicians, DJs, and local artists. Most of these events are located in San Diego nightclubs, like North Park's U-31, which allows one to end up feeling more of a local community as opposed to the pull of the glitz and glam of Gaslamp District.
If one wants to find a different type of music, look no further than Poetic Youth. The organization gathers volunteers from San Diego's Poetry International and San Diego State students and holds workshops focused on self-expression and imagination in under-served and under-represented communities.
Armantrout is absolutely right about a type of silence that exists in San Diego circa 2012. These organizations are adding a little rhythm to the city, and anyone can be appreciative of that.

Child of Light is a seemingly dark and tragic fairy tale. Princess Aurora dies in bed one night, leaving her to awaken in a kingdom of darkness. In order to go home she must take a legendary sword, band together with a group of misfits, and vanquish the night as the Child of Light. As with this writer's clever wit, every conversation in CoL has a rhyming scheme, giving the narrative a poetic breadth. Charming, dramatic, and heart warming, CoL will keep players guessing with quite a few twits and turns.
Part platformer, part RPG: Child of Light is a unique breed. The world is filled with monsters, treasure, and simple puzzles to solve. In a land populated by evil creatures, the aura around the game is haunting, giving it a Limbo like feel. Battles themselves are fought in turn-based encounters. Aurora, her party, and the monsters follow a combat timeline. Actions have wait times from instantaneous, like when using an item, or extremely long, like when casting a powerful spell. If someone is attacked during the casting period, they will get knocked back in the timeline. While it may sound complex, the mechanics are a breeze to latch onto and the difficulty is never too intense. It's simple, but fun nonetheless.
The selling point of CoL is its use of Ubisoft's Ubi Art engine, which was previously used in both Rayman games. Needless to say the design is as gorgeous as a painting come to life. The music binds the fairy tale motif together with its swift orchestral tunes. Unfortunately, there are a few blemishes in its artful approach. The game has a weird sense of pacing at times especially with the somewhat abrupt ending. And while a good cast of characters is great for a RPG party, most of them feel tagged on and unimportant. All in all, it could have used some trimming even as short as it is.
Child of Light is, above all else, a work of art. The story isn't the most original and the battle system, while good, isn't breaking any molds. Still, by the aid of it's unique engine, CoL stands out as a must play RPG. What was great for consoles is even better on the PS Vita. This is where the game belongs.

It's been a long time since we saw a big music festival hit Sawyer Point in Cincinnati. We remember the last festival pretty well, back in 2006 when the Desdemona festival took over the city and gave us hopes of our own outdoor summer festival. Sadly, that festival was short lived and since then a summer festival we could rally around hasn't hit the area.
Until now.
The Bunbury Music Festival is ready for its very first festival, at Sawyer Point here in beautiful Cincinnati, and it's only a week away. The festival came out of the gates with some really big names when things began to leak out earlier this year. And the three festival headliners are certainly names that music fans, and even those that really aren't plugged in to the music scene, will recognize.
Jane's Addiction, Weezer and Death Cab for Cutie.
Those are some heavyweight names to be sure, but there are plenty of others to be excited about as well. The 'undercard' bands that I'm most excited about include Ra Ra Riot, Dan Deacon, RJD2, and Guided By Voices. And it's always great to see the collection of local talent represented as well.
But the most important thing about Bunbury, in my opinion, is the fact that it's here in Cincinnati. If you love the lineup or could care less, this is a good thing for our city and our music community. This is something we can hang our hat on and add another brick to the Cincinnati music fortress that seems to be growing by leaps and bounds in the past decade. It's a birth, or a re-birth for summer festivals in Cincinnati and it's one that I hope is well attended by you.
If you haven't already picked up tickets, you still can, follow the link. Don't be that guy that expects to buy tickets at the gate and then gets shut out.
Coming next week, a closer look at the lineup, with a list of must see bands.
I hope and pray that this gets decent enough attendance to merit a return next year. If I had a dollar for every person who told me "I would've gone but I had already purchased my tickets for Forecastle", I'd be dining at Jeff Ruby's one of these nights…
Sorry, comments are closed.

"This is good. Is it a Bordeaux?" one of our usual panelists asked.
That's high praise around here because we're biased in favor of Bordeaux when it comes to wines made predominantly from the cabernet sauvignon and merlot grapes. We generally prefer the lighter body weight and better balance between fruit and non-fruit flavors of the French offerings.
In this case, however, the wine in question – a Cadence 2004 "Ciel Du Cheval Vineyard" Red Wine ($38) – was made from grapes grown in Washington State's Red Mountain appellation.
I purchased some of this wine several years ago and recently pulled a bottle out of the cellar to see how it was doing. The answer: exceptionally well.
The tannins had softened and merged with the fruit and all the rough edges were gone. The result was a very interesting mix of fruit and non-fruit flavors – a great companion to some fairly hearty fare.
This wine was distinctive in the best possible way. There was nothing generic-tasting about it.
Moreover, it appears to have a very long life ahead of it if you happen to have any and would like to cellar it for an extended period of time. I can say that because after we consumed about half the Cadence with one dinner, I resealed the bottle and left it sitting out for about five days. That was not intentional: events simply intervened.
But, to my surprise and relief, the wine was just fine when the bottle was reopened. The fruit had faded only very slightly and the overall balance of flavors was still very appealing. Quite a performance and a real tribute to both the grapes and the winemaker.
This wine is what is known in Washington as a "Bordeaux blend." In California, such blends are often called Meritage wines.
While the Cadence offering contains the usual mixture of grapes associated with Bordeaux, the relative proportions are a little different than most. In this case, cabernet franc, at 39%, is the leading component followed by cabernet sauvignon, 32%, merlot 21% and petit verdot 8%. More typically, cabernet franc would be, say, around 10% and petit verdot about 5%.
I don't know enough about winemaking to say why Cadence winemaker Ben Smith decided to emphasize cabernet franc in this blend, but whatever the reason, it was an inspired choice.
For the record the Cadence red is listed as being 14.4% alcohol by volume. That's higher than what one would expect to find in a comparable French-made blend.

TC TO CHAPMAN & HALL ; 6 January 1843; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18430106-TC-CAH-01; CL 16: 8
Chelsea, 6 jany, 1843—
A Lady of my acquaintance wants a copy of the French Revolution1 to be sent her "without additional cost" to the care of "some Bookseller in Worcester," or what were still better, "to Lamb, the Keeper of the Library in Great Malvern": She will pay for it at either of these places; but wants it I think almost immediately; and does not expect to have any carriage to pay. I suppose it will be possible for you to manage this,—even tho' the Magazine Monday2 is over? I send here a cover with the Lady's Address: will you insert in that, so soon as the Book is fairly off, an announcement of the fact, a prediction where it will arrive and when;—that is to say, at whose shop in Worcester, if not in Malvern, the Lady can call for her French Revolution, and pay for the same.
I do not understand that the Book is to be bound; but I am specially charged to be careful and most careful that it be "a handsome copy"— as it is intended for a gift! I suppose there is small choice in the "handsomeness"; but you will select the handsomest, and at any rate a perfectly clean one.
The only doubt I apprehend is as to your means of immediate conveyance; for the Lady seems to be about quitting Gt Malvern very soon, and coming back to Town.
If the payment in Wor'stershire occasion any difficulty, I give you another Address, which will instantly convert that part of the business into a payment in Town;—as follows on the other side of the leaf:
"Miss Wilson / 1. Upper Eccleston Street / Belgrave Square."3
I hope you perfectly understand this momentous mysterious Transaction, and will accomplish it successfully without delay!—
I remain always / Most truly yours / T. Carlyle

Two Spheres: Physical and Strategic Design in Architecture
ISBN13:by Bachman; Leonard R.
Nonspecific Binding
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the 1st edition with a publication date of 6/22/2012.
What is included with this book?
- The New copy of this book will include any supplemental materials advertised. Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any CDs, lab manuals, study guides, etc.
Explaining the connection of physical and strategic design, this book proposes an aesthetic connection between two equal aspects of architectural design: the ideal and the reality. Addressing architectural thinkers from the broad realms of academia and practice, it is suitable either as a seminar text, a guide to contemporary design issues, or as a theoretical work. Beginning with a historical perspective, the book looks at some of the key conflicts in architectural thought that were brought about by postindustrial change. The discussion shifts to clearly describe the forms of complexity, how these have interacted with architecture and the possibilities in fully embracing complexity in architectural practice. Although there are many books focusing on complexity science, there are few that focus on the relationship between complexity and design and none which take such a comprehensive approach.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Helicon Records' new 'Heritage Series' presents historic recordings of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and features some of the finest conductors to have led the orchestra since its inception. Antal Doráti rose from being the youngest ever conductor of the Royal Opera House in Budapest to being appointed "Conductor Laureate for Life" of three orchestras. This disc from 1963 features Mahler's sixth symphony. All three Helicon recordings are carefully remastered and feature high-quality mono sound.
American Record Guide, July / August 2012
I can't praise the playing here enough. This ensemble is terrific. They have almost nothing in common (except a huge-sounding tuba) with the IPO that recorded this symphony with Mehta in 1995. The strings shine when the music invites them to and have wonderful bite And texture when needed. The woodwinds are tangy and expressive. The brass players are heroic and, in the coda, strikingly vulnerable. The percussion is powerful and appropriate.
Recording information: Mann Auditorium, Tel-Aviv (10/27/1963).

"Trial By Fire" stars Gail O'Grady, Keith Carradine and Michael Bowen. It is directed by Alan Metzger and written by Richard Lawton. The names were changed in the movie. The real events happened in San Antonio.
"Trial By Fire" synopsis/plot
When Paulette Gil, a local high-school teacher, tries to help one of her troubled male students, he takes her gestures the wrong way. After the student commits suicide, his friends come forward with a story that indicats that the student was involved in an ongoing sexual relationship with his teacher, according to The Victoria Advocate.
"Trial By Fire" has themes dealing with court cases, sexual assault and sexual relationships between a teacher and a student.
The true story made headlines in 1988 when a teacher in Texas was accused of having sex with a student, who later committed suicide. According to court records, Lou Ann Hogan had an inappropriate relationship with Chad Cadenhead. However, a jury found the San Antonio teacher not guilty.

Jonjo Shelvey is adamant Liverpool can travel to Udinese on the final day of the Europa League group stage and come away with a crucial victory after the Reds failed to secure early qualification to the knockout stage against Young Boys at Anfield.
Shelvey played in an advanced role on Thursday night, leading the line for Brendan Rodgers' side and the 20-year-old repaid his manager's faith on 33 minutes when he nodded the home side in front.
And the England international is confident that a repeat of the performance that saw Liverpool narrowly lose to the Italians at Anfield in October will be enough to see the Reds progress when the two sides clash at the Stadio Friuli in December.
"We are a bit disappointed we didn't qualify against Young Boys," Shelvey told Liverpoolfc.com. "We felt that we should have won the game but it was just a lack of concentration towards the end that cost us.
"We'll push on from here and get the three points against Udinese to make sure we qualify.
"It will be a difficult game against them - it was a difficult game here. But that being said, I thought that day we should have won. So we'll go there with the same game plan and hopefully we will nick a result."
Joe Cole's neat exchange with Suso paved the way for Shelvey to apply a simple finish and clinch his fourth Europa League goal of the campaign so far on Thursday night.
It might have been a straightforward strike but the midfielder demonstrated a striker's instinct as he drifted into a position at the far post where he could turn the ball home.
And while the England international insisted he would not be staking a claim for Luis Suarez's shirt any time soon, he remained pleased with his performance in the forward role.
"I found it okay playing in the advanced position," he said. "It was an unfamiliar role for me but I thought I did well and we'll have to see what happens now in terms of playing there again.
"The manager told me not to play too far up the pitch. He told me to drop back into the holes behind their defence. He told me to turn and drive at the defence, so I hope I have done what the gaffer had in mind and I can get another chance on Sunday.
"I'm not sure whether I can play there going forward though. Obviously you have got Luis Suarez playing there and he's a world-class striker and his goals speak for themselves this season. He is the top goalscorer in the Premier League.
"For me, I just want to prove that I'm worthy of a place in the side wherever that may be."

As the food crisis increases around the world, it makes sense for us to reduce the amount of food we waste. This will save us money too – imagine saving a third of your weekly food bill!
Food waste is caused by cooking too much and then throwing away the extras, buying 3 for 2 offers and not using things before they go off, impulse buys, poor portion control or mouldy fruit and vegetables.
Many people think that throwing food in the landfill is ok. It's biodegradable after all, so doesn't create problems. The trouble is, more often than not, the biodegradable food gets wrapped inside a non biodegradable plastic bag! If the air doesn't get to the food then it won't rot down.
In the absence of oxygen, biodegradable materials (such as food, cardboard and green waste) decompose and produce methane gas, which contributes to global warming.
Here are my top ten tips to help you reduce food waste.
Think about the meals that your family enjoys most and make a menu plan for the week. Write down the ingredients you need for each meal on a list. There is nothing worse than pushing a trolley around a supermarket aimlessly with no ideas about your meals for the following week. You often end up with an expensive trolley full of ingredients that don't go together!
Before you begin your menu plan, take a look at any leftovers in the fridge, vegetable rack and cupboards. Vegetables which are starting to go soft can be made into soup or pasta sauces. Over ripe fruits can be made into pies or blended to make smoothies. Half a tin of tuna could be tonight's pasta bake and a few spoons of cooked mince could be made into pasties.
Write a list from your menu plan and take it with you to the shop. If you stick to the list you'll be more likely to resist impulse buys that don't get used up.
It's a simple tip but an important one. If you shop when your stomach is growling, you'll be tempted to buy all sorts of things you don't need. Plus if you're focusing on your hunger, you're not focusing on making good choices.
When you get home from shopping, put all the new food at the BACk of the fridge and cupboards and bring last week's old items to the front. How many times have you found something mouldy hiding in the back of the 'fridge?
Be honest with yourself and start writing things down. Do you throw away half a loaf of bread a week? Then why not freeze it and take out slices as you need them. Take individual slices out for sandwiches the night before you need them, or use straight from frozen for toasting. If you regularly throw away vegetables then maybe you need to buy them loose and reduce the amount you buy each week.
Are the seals good and is the temperature set to between 1 and 5 degrees? This ensures your fridge will keep your food fresh for as long as possible.
If you regularly throw out gone off fruit and vegetables then why not turn them into something useful by starting a compost bin. They are easier than you might think to manage and there are a range of styles to suit all garden sizes.
If you have a tiny garden, then you could try a wormery. If you have no garden at all then why not try a kitchen composter, such as the Bokashi bin? A bokashi bin will even take cooked food scraps. Keep checking back on the site for an exciting competition to win a bokashi bin in the future!
It can be difficult, especially with children who eat like a horse one day and hardly anything the next, to serve the right sized portions. Why not let your family help themselves by taking a small portion with the knowledge that they can come back for more when that has been eaten? Any leftovers can be covered and stored in the 'fridge once they have cooled down and used the following day.
View today's leftovers as tomorrow's ingredients with a bit of creative thinking. A couple of sausages could be made into a pasta bake or toad in the hole, cooked vegetables can be made into bubble and squeak, a bit of pasta can be tossed with vegetables and some chickpeas for a pasta salad, a couple of rashers of bacon can be made into an omlette. The possibilities are endless; all you need to do is add imagination.
There is a great website that deals with this issue. The Love Food Hate Waste campaign aims to raise awareness of the need to reduce the amount of food that we throw away, and how doing this will benefit us as consumers and the environment. On the site you will find plenty of recipes, facts about storing food and even suggestions about portion control.
National Zero Waste Week takes place week beginning 6th September and the theme is 'Cooking for Victory!'
With the support of Brian Turner and sponsorship from Tetra Pak, there are two prizes up for grabs: 1 x £50 voucher for LUSH and 1 x £50 voucher for Natural Collection.
All you have to do is sign up and pledge to reduce your food waste, then come back during the week and tell us how you are getting on. You could use up all those old packets in your cupboard, dive into your freezer and extract all those UFOs (unidentified Frozen Objects) to make some pot luck suppers or take your leftovers to work for lunch the following day. Let us know what you have decided to do!

Listen, we've all been there: you find your own personal Holy Grail beauty product, be it mascara or hair gel, and you vow to never stray. But then one day, the unthinkable happens.... your beauty soul mate calls it quits! (cue threatening music) Rather than spend the rest of your days trolling eBay for half-used tubes of that perfect lip gloss, you decide to try and find a replacement. which, sadly, isn't as easy as it should be. Your simple search turns into An Epic Quest. This is the account of my Crimson Chase, my Rouge Odyssey, my Long Kiss Goodnight.
For those of you who remember way back to last week, I started with drugstore cheapies. Over the past week, I've done a LOT (back me up, Janetor) of research, testing, and begging for samples (cuz this ish ain't cheap, yo!) One of my all-time favorite reps, Tara from Estee Lauder, came through super fast and with some amazing options (see image). Since she sent such a bunch, I thought I'd just do them all in one round. I only tried 5, and surprisingly I liked them all, although I don't know that they're all contenders for the crown. I know it's kind of hard to tell the colors apart in the pictures, but they really were very similar - so just go with your gut when you're choosing your favorite.
P.S. Yes, they sent samples. Yes, I liked them for all of the 5 minutes I had each one on. No, they're not paying me to say this. But I am going to link to Estee Lauder's lipsticks, cuz I'm sweet like that.
P.P.S. Let's not get into how bad my skin looks. I can only focus on one thing at a time.
With the poor lighting all the lipsticks look the same.
Well, sadly, that's more due to our not-so-great flourescent lighting in the office and my crappy camera. IMHO, the Signature Rich Red and Cherry Passion were the 2 best. We'll see if we can't get better lighting for our next round though!
Yeah, Ann, I know what you mean! They were all really pretty and feminine, and Janetor and I wondered also whether the similarities in tone might be a branding aesthetic. I voted for Cherry Passion and Stay Scarlet.
I voted for Rich Red and Stay Scarlet. All of them were nice, but Spanish Red reminded me of the orange-y red my kindergarten teacher wore, so to my perception filter, it looked a little, um...matronly. Probably not what you want a red lipstick to convey.
I have Spanish Red, and have found I look a lot better in it if I use a dark purply lip liner with it (Nars Damned, to be specific).

But it was not ready in time, so Korolev hurriedly developed Sputnik 1 as a replacement. It became the first artificial satellite of the earth. Sputnik 1 had 1 watt of power, producing an 0.4 second duration signal on the 7 and 15 m bands. Four antennae were deployed at 35 degree angles. Power was provided by three silver-zinc batteries. Thermo-regulation was by a ventilator. The 580 mm sphere had a mass of 83 kg and was made of highly polished Aluminum AMG6T alloy 2 mm thick. It was built without drawings due to the quick time schedule. Korolev was everywhere, supervising all aspects of its construction. It functioned for 21 days.
Gross mass: 84 kg (185 lb).

"Kate plus 8," a special that will air in June on TLC, finally gives Kate Gosselin some airtime. This is something that she has been desperately seeking since the demise of her series. This one-night special will feature an update on Kate and her brood since her weekly reality show went belly-up.
According to ABC News on March 18, it has been two years since last seeing Kate and her kids and her little ones have grown in leaps and bounds. Kate recently had a photo shoot with her twin daughters who are now 13 and they are gorgeous!
Kate's sextuplets are nine-years-old today, they are not babies anymore. Alexis, Hana, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel Gosselin were a handful back in the day. In June you shall see if it has gotten any easier with six kids the same age.
There's no word if Jon Gosselin will join the show or not. The "Jon & Kate plus 8" show turned into "Kate plus 8" in 2010. The show, which started in 2007 was going strong until Jon left in 2009. Kate lasted alone with the kids in the realm of reality TV until 2011.
Jon has been very vocal on Kate's overwhelming desire to get back on TV. She shopped around for a while after the TLC show ended, but she didn't even get a nibble on the end of that fishing pole.
Raising the kids in front of the TV cameras was not Jon's idea of how to raise the kids. Although he jumped back into reality TV after he left Kate, he doesn't want the kids doing it.
In a bizarre turn of events Jon joined the series "Couples Therapy" with his girlfriend Liz Janetta in January. It could be that both Jon and Kate crave the TV cameras.
Kate became a bit hard to deal with toward the end of "Kate plus 8," which was seen in some of the final episodes. She went with the kids and family friends in RV's on a road trip and she was often seen yelling, mad and just plain rude to her friends.
Back then it looked like she needed some time away from the cameras. Since leaving that show Kate has had her hand in a few things, but she has never been able to gain the exposure she enjoyed with the TLC camera crew following them around day and night.
It will be interesting to see how the family looks today!

Russia: Year in Review Report
Share this
In 2013, Russia enacted harsh anti-LGBT laws banning "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations" and blocking same-sex couples from adopting children.
Since these laws were put into place, there has been an uptick in violent attacks on LGBT people according to Human Rights Watch. LGBT Russians have been murdered, pelted with eggs, blinded in air gun attacks and gay clubs and venues are under constant threat. Police often turn a blind eye and even when prosecutions occur, the penalties can be light and prosecutors are reluctant to use hate crime statutes against perpetrators of anti-LGBT violence. Since the passage of the propaganda law, at least three people have been fined for expressing support for LGBT equality and dozens of others have been detained, investigated or threatened.
The following report details the severe impact that last year's anti-LGBT laws have had and continue to have on the Russian LGBT community and its allies.

|Absence of mixing for special flows over interval exchange maps
|Center for Dynamics and Geometry Seminars
|Dmitry Scheglov (PSU)
|The history of the problem comes from the work of V.Arnold where he notices that some ergodic flows on surfaces can be represented as special flows over the interval exchange maps for functions with symmetric or asymmetric logarithmic singularities and asks a question about mixing properties of such flows. The first result belongs to A.Kocergin who proved the absence of mixing for symmetric singularities and almost all circle rotations. The next result in this issue belongs to Sinai and Khanin who proved mixing for asymmetric singularities and almost all circle rotations. Recently C.Ulcigrai proved mixing for almost all interval exchanges and asymmetric singularities. We prove the absence of mixing for the case of symmetric singularities for almost all interval exshange of 4 intervals of the permutation type (4321). The proof includes elements of graphs combinatorics, substitution systems, and Kontsevich-Zorich induction.

Tulum Cheese in Goatskin / Bob Galivan
Istanbul, Turkey. May 8th, 2010
Outside the Spice Bazaar near the Galeta Bridge, we found a Turkish cheese shop open and ready for business. There was quite a large display of Turkish cheeses, along with other local and regional items such as olives, cured meats, and more. We selected several traditional cheeses from the shelves: Tulum, Kasar, and Cecil Peynir.
Tulum cheese is traditionally made from sheep's milk and ripened in a goat skin bag (tulum in Turkish). It is produced in most of the regions of the country, but the primary types of Tulum are Izmir Tulum, produced in the Western region of Turkey, and Erzincan Savak Tulum, produced in the Eastern region of Turkey. The Izmir cheese is harder and saltier than the Erzincan cheese. We purchased some Erzincan, displayed still stored in its goatskin.
The cheese is made in the standard way, using raw milk and coagulated using calves rennet. After draining, the curd is broken up into small pieces, salted, then placed in the skins to cure. Tulum is aged for at least three months. Some facilities are using plastic bags to age the cheese instead of the traditional skins. Studies are mixed as to the effect the plastic has on the characteristics of the cheese.
Tulum cheese / Bob Galivan
The tulum cheese we purchased had no rind. The surface was smooth and wrinkly from the skin it was stored in. The paste was off-white, almost ivory in color, with a crumbly, cake-y appearance. It looked like you could flake it with a fork; it broke apart very easily.
The aroma was straw, slightly soured milk, with vegetal and herbal notes. The taste was salty, herbal, spicy, with some peppery notes. It was slightly sour with some nutty flavors. The texture in the mouth was grainy; the cheese dissolved into a pleasant creamy paste with a cornmeal texture. The salty flavor lingered, with some sweetness as it finished.
This was a tasty cheese, and would be great in salads – I suspect as a substitute for feta cheese it would be fantastic. We saw a watermelon salad with what I am pretty sure was Tulum on display in a restaurant. Tulum is available on-line; search Turkish Grocers USA for locations.We tried it with a Spanish white table wine, and Champagne - it went well. It was a little salty for red wine, but it was not a bad match with a Vacluse or a Chianti.

A diluent for prolonged motility of ocean pout ...
|A diluent for prolonged motility of ocean pout (Macrozoarces americanus L.) sperm
|Z. Yao, Gavin F. Richardson, L. W. Crim
|Start page
|End page
|The present study describes a new semen diluent (diluent C) which prolongs the sustained motility of ocean pout sperm, a distinguishing feature of the sperm of internally fertilizing teleosts. Sperm motilities were compared in the new diluent (C), based on the ionic composition of ocean pout seminal plasma, vs. four other semen diluents (A, B, D and E) ordinarily used for extending the semen of external fertilizers. While sperm retained motility after extension of ocean pout semen in all of these diluents, motility was significantly reduced following sperm resuspension in diluents B and D. Since sperm motility remained high in diluent C, formulated to closely mimic the composition of ocean pout seminal plasma, it was selected for additional experimentation. Negative effects were observed on sperm motility after dilution (> 1:10) of ocean pout semen with diluent C, but sperm motility could be restored by replacement of the seminal plasma. Of practical importance for storage of ocean pout sperm at 4 degrees C, it was shown that semen dilution 1:3 in diluent C preserved sperm motility beyond 5 days. Although ocean pout sperm tolerate a fairly wide range of K+ levels (0-30 mmol/l), the best motility was observed from 10-20 mmol/l [K+], similar to the ionic levels found in seminal plasma. Finally, since no change in fertility of ocean pout sperm occurred following 1:3 dilution of semen in diluent C, we conclude that diluent C is an effective medium for in vitro artificial egg insemination and prolonged motility of ocean pout sperm.

@socalled innovation that's a very uninformed opinion. I'm imagining you haven't used either app, as Samplr is not a DJ software at all (and I use it constantly, because I'm not a DJ). It's a completely new instrument. Traktor has a long-standing history in the DJ culture, and the idea that they would rip-off Marcos's app is laughable.

Ilchester Inspires Savory Flavor Infusion in the U.S.
Ilchester® specialty British cheese updates look and inspires sweet and savory flavor infustion in the U.S. cheese market
Over 30 varieties of England's finest quality cheeses tempt U.S. palate
RICHFIELD, Wis., June 2008 – As Americans' interest in flavor fusions continues, Ilchester Cheese of Great Britain is combining English tradition with premium cheeses, herbs, spices and fruits, while bringing to the table a new contemporary look to the brand's more than 30 specialty cheese blends in the United States. Since 1962, Ilchester, which owns nearly half of the U.S. market share for English cheeses, has developed an extensive line of cheeses with exceptional texture, flavor profile and character.
Ilchester recently updated its English look to feature a contemporized British flag and logo and added a pastoral English countryside scene. "The label makeover project was six months in the making, but definitely worth the dramatic results," according to Linda Hook, vice president of marketing for DCI.
According to Richfield, WI-based DCI Cheese Co., which exclusively imports Ilchester in the U.S., more than 80 percent of growth in the American English cheese market has come from blended flavor cheese. "Consumer's taste buds are more sophisticated today; they are searching for an explosion of flavors in each bite," according to DCI Cheese Co. senior vice president of sales, Dominique Delegeau. "In addition, Ilchester's refined and beautiful cheese blends bring zest, color and panache to the category."
Following English tradition, Ilchester has mixed sweet with sour, and sweet with savory, to create a variety of unusual cheeses to satisfy any palate. For example, Ilchester's Sage Derby cheese is flavored with real sage, producing a gorgeous sage green marbling effect and subtle herb flavor. The first English cheese to layer completely different cheeses together, Double Gloucester with Stilton, features alternating layers of mellow Double Gloucester and sharp, tangy Blue Stilton, creating a taste sensation.
On the sweeter side, Ilchester also offers a specialized line of fruit-infused mixtures. They combine a classic, creamy and crumbly White Stilton with fruits like blueberries, apricots and lemon to create flavors perfect for salad toppings, dessert pairings, and holiday gatherings.
Ilchester British cheeses are available in the deli case where high-quality premium cheeses are sold. Recipes and additional information can be found at www.dcicheeseco.com.

Let's face it - puppies are the sweetest. Any breed, any hybrid, any cross. They grab your heart and bond instantly. True, some have the character that tests your every nerve, but they are all worth it: provided you have these things to give to them:
Enough money to get them the essentials. I'm speaking of good food - raw diet or holistic, because it has been proven lately that these are the best. Accessories, well - that goes without saying, because you need these too. If you're not prepared to put out an additional 2,000 a year for clothes, toys, treats, and vet checkups - do yourself a favor and do not impulse adopt a dog.
You could argue that love is enough, but it is not. They need your time, your full attention, and your commitment and dedication. Remember that without you, a dog would only survive a short time on its own. Some have stronger wolf instincts and could possible survive longer and adapt, but these are rare cases. Through the centuries, we have bred dogs to be domesticated companions, and so they read our emotions, and our actions, and know that they must rely on us for their survival.
The reason there are so many rescues is that people do not think before they get a dog. They don't analyze their lifestyle committments, and usually have lame reasons like its going to make the kids more responsible. Well think again. Perhaps, but kids get bored too, and usually the parents wind up doing the major caregiving for the dog.
Companionship. People who work 9-10 hours or more and commute, and leave the poor dog alone for that long should be crated in a room themselves with no outside contact, and just a plate of food and water nearby and perhaps a window. Get real people. A dog NEEDS nurturing.
Too many dogs already in the world? Good breeders will interrogate the families to ensure their pups are going to appropriately selected homes. I'm in favor of costly licencing fees so that will at least eliminate the unscrupulous breeders and puppy brokers out for a quick buck.
Please people before you get a puppy or rescue, think about it. If you even see yourself pushing aside your pup because you have to rush to get to work and you're late in the morning, do both you and the pup a favor and let it be. Abandoning a dog is unforgivable in my books. How do I know? Because I have 19 maltipoos I've bred over a span of 14 years. Some have been returned to me for those mentioned reasons. We are one big happy family now. Join us at www.happydogzretreat.com

I'm starting to resemble a Picasso painting: One side of my face sags; the other doesn't. Am I aging lopsided?
"No one's face is symmetrical, but the differences go undetected when we're younger and more satisfied with our appearance," says Brandt. "As we age, these asymmetries become more pronounced." Even sleeping on the same side of your face for years can have a deleterious effect. If the sagging really bothers you, Brandt says you can have an upper-eyelid lift to remove excess skin on the saggier side. "For those not surgically inclined, you can restore volume and reduce laxity in the eyelid with a filler such as Restylane, followed by Botox," he says. Of course, you don't have to submit to a knife or needle; you can opt for a makeup brush instead. "Stick to matte eyeshadows," Ahnert suggests. "Anything with frost will exacerbate the crepey effect." She recommends applying a neutral bisque or shell pink all over the main lid, then using a medium-toned shadow (warm brown, taupey plum) in the crease, with this tweak: On the eye that sags more, apply the darker color higher on the fold to give the appearance of less skin.
My nails are less shiny and more ridged than they used to be. I'm fairly healthy. What's the deal?
"Ridges in the nail are the equivalent of wrinkles in your skin," explains Richard Scher, MD, a dermatologist. (Seriously, is nothing exempt?) "When there's aging in the nail matrix—the part that supports growth—it becomes wavy. Light buffing will remove some of the bumpiness, but don't overdo it. Buffing can thin the nail plate and leave it prone to breaking," says Scher. Natasha Boyer, a nail technician at the Rita Hazan Salon in New York City, recommends using a ridge-filling base coat post-buff. "And avoid a sheer or shimmery polish. Those just draw attention to the ridges," she says. Try Sally Hansen Miracle Nail Thickener ($8; drugstores).
Ugh. I am constantly getting food stuck between my teeth. This never used to happen. What's up?
Look on the bright side: Fear of public humiliation could be a very effective dieting tool. No? You actually like eating? Stash a handy flossing pick in your bag, then call your dentist. "As we age, the gum between our teeth thins and eventually recedes, leaving the 'black triangle' where food can catch," says Michael Apa, DDS, who specializes in aesthetic dentistry in New York. There are two ways to combat this: orthodontia (Invisalign braces are clear and therefore a good choice for adults) and veneers. "Both methods change how the teeth meet the gum, closing off that gap and creating seemingly full, healthy gums," Apa explains. You would have to wear the braces for several months to a year (with permanent results), while veneers take just two office visits (then last 15 to 20 years). Invisalign braces cost about $5,000 for the whole mouth, whereas veneers will run you $1,200 to $3,000 per tooth. To fix small gaps, some dentists use bonding, which costs about $1,000 per area. Oh, and one more thing: Friends do tell friends when they have spinach stuck in their teeth.
I'm seeing white spots all over my arms and legs. Are they dangerous?

"There were lots of good efforts all over the place for us today" said head coach Robert Johnson. "We got a lot of people though to tomorrow and we had a lot of PRs.
"It's the championship season and this is the time of year you want to see those types of efforts."
Weir got the women off on the right foot Friday at the Dempsey Indoor Facility by recording a pair of personal bests in the weight throw. She threw 66-11.25/20.40m in the preliminary round before improving to 67-6.25/20.58m on her final throw.
That was a personal best by more than a foot for the sophomore from Sunnyvale, Calif., and was the second best throw in school history. It also moved Weir into a tie for 14th nationally in the event, an important ranking as the top 16 individuals will receive a bid to the NCAA Championships March 8-9.
Also in the women's weight throw, junior Laura Bobek had a personal best mark of 54-6.5/16.62m to finish 11th.
The men also saw a personal best in the weight throw as senior Miles Walk went 59-11.25/18.27m to finish fourth overall.
One of the biggest surprises of the meet was a pair of PRs by the Ducks in the men's pole vault. Senior Austin Ouderkirk and freshman Matt Hidalgo both cleared the bar at 16-10/5.13m. Hidalgo earned a fifth place finish based on fewer misses with Ouderkirk sixth.
More impressive than the placings was the fact that Hidalgo improved on his previous best by more than seven inches, while Ouderkirk, a Newport, Ore., native who began his collegiate career at Washington before transferring, was nearly three inches better than his prior indoor PR. Hidalgo, from Banks, Ore., has either set or tied a PR in all four meets he vaulted in this indoor season.
The men also got a point from Trevor Ferguson who finished eighth in the long jump by virtue of his indoor best of 23-8.75/7.23m.
Sophomore Sammie Clark scored for the women with a fifth place finish in the women's pole vault, clearing 12-11/3.94m.
The women wrapped up the scoring for the night with a third place finish in the distance medley relay. Laura Rosler, Alexandria Davidson, Megan Patrignelli and Ashley Maton ran 11:30.54.
The women also had Alyssa Monteverde's ninth place finish in the heptathlon. The freshman from Fresno, Calif. Set three pentathlon PRs and tied a fourth on the way to a personal best 3,642 points. That was the fifth best total in school history. Monteverde's pentathlon PRs included an 8.59 in the 60 meter hurdles, a 17-8.75/9.49m in the long jump and a 2:26.17 in the 800 meters. She tied her best by clearing 5-3/1.60m in the high jump and recorded a shot put of 31-1.75/9.49m.
Prior to running the 800, Monteverde took a break from the pentathlon to run a personal best 8.47 in the open 60 meter hurdle preliminaries, finishing second in her heat to move on to Saturday's final. Monteverde's time moved her to No. 2 on Oregon's indoor list.
UCLA led the women's competition with 45.5 points. Oregon was sixth with 18. Arizona State had the men's lead with 55.5 points. The Ducks were seventh with 13.
In preliminary action, football players Dior Mathis and B.J. Kelley both won their 60 meter heats to move into Saturday's finals. Mathis won his race in a personal best 6.79 seconds, while Kelley took his in 6.83.
In the women's 60 meters, English Gardner and Jenna Prandini both timed 7.35 in winning their respective heats to advance to the finals.
In the men's 60 meter hurdles, Johnathan Cabral won his heat in 7.82 seconds and advanced.
Dakotah Keys used a personal best of 7.13 in the 60 meters to stand in third place with 3,104 points after the first day of the heptathlon. He just missed a PR in the high jump, clearing 6-6.75/2.00m and also went 22-11.25 in the long jump and threw 41-10.5/12.76m in the shot put.
Blake Kemp set PRs in three events ad was fifth in the heptathlon with 2,994 points. Kemp ran 7.08 in the 60 meters, went 22-5/6.78m in the long jump and cleared 6-3.25/1.91m in the high jump, all PRs for the freshman from Coos Bay, Ore. He also had a mark of 41-4.25/12.60m in the shot put.
"The bulk of what we came here to do happens on Saturday," said Johnson. "We'll know a lot more after tomorrow how we stand for the NCAAs. But we did a great job today of setting the table and now we need to go out there and have another big day."
The MPSF Championships continue at 10:30 a.m. Saturday.

Rushing is flanked by New Orleans-based Bishop Morris Thompson, left, of the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana, and the Rev. C.S. Gordon, right, president of the Louisiana Missionary Baptist State Convention. BY MICHELLE MILLHOLLON| Capitol news bureau Comments Religious leaders from across Louisiana complained Friday that the math behind Gov. Bobby Jindal's tax proposal is flawed. Northern and Central Louisiana Interfaith, a Shreveport-based religious organization, said the Jindal administration underestimated the expected tax burden on families by omitting part of a proposed state sales tax hike from calculations. "This is about more than just numbers on a page. This is about integrity and people's lives," the Rev. Melvin Rushing, of Baton Rouge, said during a news conference at the State Capitol. The Rev. Morris Thompson, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana in New Orleans, said the governor should withdraw his sales tax proposal. He was among ministers from around the state drawing attention to the governor's tax overhaul proposals. "Our numbers are growing," Thompson said. "Our voice of justice is being heard." The next step, Thompson said, will be to meet with legislators, who will start debating the tax plan in the legislative session that begins April 8. The Jindal administration refused multiple times Friday to confirm whether a broadening of the state sales tax base was included in a distributed analysis on how Louisiana individuals and families would be affected. In a prepared statement, Tim Barfield, executive counsel for the state Department of Revenue, said: "More than 80 percent of the expanded sales tax base does not impact families and individuals. That being said, the formula/methodology used to calculate rebates ... ensures that the tax burden will be reduced for all income brackets even when considering increased taxes resulting from an expanded sales tax base." Barfield concluded his statement by appearing to blame the ministers' complaints on misinformation spread by the Louisiana Budget Project, which he called a liberal special interest group. However, the Louisiana Budget Project is not the only organization questioning the governor's math. The Baton Rouge-based Public Affairs Research Council of Louisiana published a report Thursday accusing the governor of using revenue numbers that could knock the budget neutrality of the tax plan out of balance by at least $500 million. The Council for A Better Louisiana, another public policy organization, warned Friday that low revenues could give legislators no choice but to raise taxes even further. The governor wants to eliminate the state's personal income and corporate taxes. To avoid the state budget taking a hit, Jindal wants to replace the revenue by raising state sales tax to 5.88 percent and taxing services that are not currently taxed by the state, including veterinary services, hair cuts and play tickets. The Jindal administration contends "the vast majority of Louisiana taxpayers will save more through the elimination of state income taxes than they will pay in increased state sales taxes." Among the scenarios promoted by the administration is one in which "teachers making $45,000 per year filing individually would see their annual state tax burden reduced by more than $800 on average." The ministers said Friday that the administration omitted part of the sales tax increase from its calculation. Rushing said the administration made no accommodation for the fact that people currently not paying a penny in state sales tax for many services now would pay 5.88 percent. Instead, he said, the administration just included the impact of state sales tax increasing from 4 percent to 5.88 percent. He said the omission skewed the assessment of how much families would pay. For several of the religious leaders who crowded into Memorial Hall at the State Capitol on Friday, this was their second trip there. A handful came to the Capitol days earlier to drop off a letter signed by 250 clergy expressing concerns about the tax plan's impact on the poor and middle class. On Friday, they returned to the State Capitol with a report detailing their criticism of the Revenue Department's analysis. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe
