Easy credits
Note: This is only for those that started to play as a Terran. There is not much fighting in the Terran sectors. After you get the mission to follow some pirates and scan their base, deactivate the tracing system for that mission. You will notices that many stations have a red target (those are missions to kill, patrol, or protect). Because you do not have a good ship yet, it is best that you accept only missions to protect stations. In addition to a reward, you get a bonus for every kill. There can also be another bonus for you -- some of the ships might get abandoned. This gives you a chance to claim the abandoned ships and sell them, or keep the ship if desired, then upgrade it and have it as a wing man to help on harder missions that give even more money. Note: Other ships in the sectors also will help sometimes. Your Terran mission will not end because there is no time limit. Fly around the sectors and look for missions where you need to protect a station. Do this as long as desired, and save the game after every mission.

Evergreen climber
Flower colour

One of Roy Lancaster's favourite evergreen climbers, Clematis armandii brightens up the garden in early spring with its fragrant white flowers which smell like hawthorn blossom. Its long, mid-green leaves look attractive all year round and make an effective screen. It was first introduced to England in 1900 by the great plant hunter Ernest Wilson who originally discovered it in China. As this vigorous climber is on the tender side, it is best grown against a sheltered wall away from cold winds. It requires little pruning other than the removal of any dead or damaged growth after flowering.

Can I take cuttings from this aswell? Mine flowered for the first time this year but all the flowers have gone. Should it still be in bloom and should I dead head the dead flowers.Thanks
HiMy very mature clematis armandii died off last year. It looks as though this problem is happening again with my younger armandii. Have you any suggestions why this may have happened and is there any way I can save my existing one? I have kept is well watered just recently due to the dry weather. I also have a stone shading the roots. Also, some of the leaves on my newly planted climbing rose are curling in wards. Amny suggestions?Bluebells
A nice plant but quite a monster in terms of growth so it needs to be placed somewhere where it can happily romp away. The downside is the brown leaves caused by frost damage. Good fragrance but doesn't always look its best due to the frost.
I planted one last year and it has been nibbled all over by something. Could it be earwigs? My garden is very well drained.
I really love this plant, because it has such gorgeous flowers and scent and evergreen leaves BUT it is a nightmare to get established and once you've achieved that (two plants later in my case - NOT cheap!!), they seem to catch every nasty in the book! I would seriously recommend going for one of the montana clematis or the yellow winter flowering (sorry can't remember name - Bill McKenzie??) as they are so much easier and less prone to death!!
Hvae both the white and Apple blossom variety. Have hod to cut right back twice and has regrown even better than before. Tkes at least one year to produce the same amount of flowers again. Birds love to nest in the cradles of branches
I too have had to cut my 'Apple Blossom' right down to provide it with a stronger arch to grow over. It came back really strongly and currently(early April) is stunning.I can smell the blossom over 5m away.It is a very strong grower and needs space to grow into - with a strong support to cling onto as the weight gets heavier with each year.I love it, beautiful flowers and perfume in spring, bronze new foliage, evergreen and mine usually provides me with a second flush of flowers in late summer. A plant I would not be without.
Well,I planted one and left it .Now I've got to go and cut it back .Hard to grow I think not!!!!!
Shrinking Violet
I have this growing at the front of the house against the wall - north facing. It shouldn't thrive - but it is in full and glorious bloom at the moment.I'm in the South West and have a very favourable microclimate because of the surrounding hills, so this probably accounts for it. But it is stunning.
So easy to grow - mine has taken over a 10' length of fence and carried on to ramble throughout a tree in its path. Fantastic show of perfumed flowers so early in the year - not bad for a reduced sickly looking plant from my local nursery. Does need to be regularly trimmed back!
I had a clematis armandii in our old garden that I loved, and have tried it in the much smaller, north-facing one we have now, where it's proved much more difficult to manage. Now very leggy, it could perhaps gain from being cut back for a fresh start, but I'm afraid of doing this after what I've read elsewhere about its hatred of major pruning. Several contributors here say they've cut theirs back and with success, and I'd be grateful for their advice on how I could follow their example. I can be sent a message through the GW system.

This editorial accompanies an article. Please see Histologic Activity of Childhood Chronic Hepatitis B Related to Viremia Levels, Genotypes, Mutations, and Epidemiologic Factors. A Söderström, G Norkrans, N Conradi, M Krantz, P Horal, M Lindh. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 2002;35:487–494.
More than any other clinical specialty, pediatric medicine has a double field of interest. The pediatrician should not only treat the immediate inconveniences of the present illness but also continuously consider its potential future complications in a patient who will long have outgrown the pediatric age group and does not even remember the original disease. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is an important example.
Apart from some exceptional cases of fulminant liver failure, acute hepatitis B mostly runs a mild and subclinical course. In the developed West, infection of children is rather uncommon thanks to different prophylactic measures and the subsequent rarity of vertical transmission. At this moment, most cases of childhood chronic HBV infection in the West are diagnosed in immigrants or adopted children from endemic areas. Worldwide, however, 350 million people would carry the virus according to WHO and it would be the tenth most common cause of death (1). These dramatic figures are the result of the frequent progression of the infection to chronicity, especially when acquired at birth. About 90% of all babies born to mothers with active viral replication will be infected. In the majority, the infection becomes chronic; when the reproductive age is reached the virus is passed to the next generation and the vicious circle restarts. For about 40%, the development of chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, and primary liver cell cancer must be feared at any age (2).
Avoidance of these complications in children but also in adults is the ultimate goal of any treatment. To institute this early but efficiently and to evaluate the efficacy of any chosen strategy, detailed knowledge of any aspect of chronic HBV-infection as well in children and later in life is paramount. Many authors have already contributed to the elucidation of this complicated disease. In this issue of the Journal, A. Söderström et al. report their cross sectional data on 71 chronic HBV carriers of allochthonous origin, living in Sweden, aged 2 to 18 years (3). Acquisition of infection was presumed to be by vertical transmission in 16 (22.5%) and horizontal in 17 (24%) while it was uncertain in the remaining 38 carriers.
From all, a liver biopsy was taken and systematically scored for inflammation and fibrosis. At the same time values were recorded of several serologic HBV markers (HBsAg, HBeAg, anti-HBe, core IgM antibodies), of ALT, genotypes, corepromotor, and precore mutations. Serum HBV-DNA levels were quantitatively measured by PCR.
HBeAg was positive in 49 patients and negative in 22 patients. The mean age of the group with HBeAg positivity was significantly lower than that of those negative for HBeAg. Furthermore the HBeAg positives had on average a HB-DNA level ten thousand times that of the negatives. It is therefore concluded that HB viremia and the proportion of HBeAg positive carriers decrease with age. This is in accordance with several other reports such as a long-term follow up study from Taiwan where an annual seroconversion rate was found of 4 to 5% in children older than 3 years of age and of less than 2% in younger ones. The age at seroconversion varied individually between infancy and more than 40 years, the most common age being between 15 and 30 years (4). It can be expected that the age in the presented group might be somewhat lower since the East Asian study contains a higher proportion of vertically infected patients who are known to lose HBeAg after a longer time than the horizontally infected.
The authors tried to predict in the least aggressive way which children with chronic HBV infection are at risk for developing severe liver complications. For that purpose they investigated the relations between biochemical markers of HBV infection, HBV-DNA serum levels, genotypes, corepromotor, and precore mutations with the occurrence and degree of liver damage.
Neither genotypes nor mutations seem to have much influence. HBeAg in contrast is the most important discriminating criterium associated with liver inflammation. When patients are positive for HBeAg they more often show a raised ALT, anti-core-IgM, a much higher HBV-DNA level, and an increased inflammation score. On the other hand it is improbable to find severe hepatic damage when HBeAg is negative and biochemical markers and the DNA level are low. Within the groups, however, it was, in contrast to the situation in adults, impossible to demonstrate a more sensitive relation between the level of DNA and the degree of liver inflammation. In HBeAg positive patients the scoring of liver inflammation ranged from almost normal to severe, thus reducing the value of finding HBeAg positivity for the prediction of the degree of liver damage in an individual patient; when HBeAg is negative on the contrary it is very probable that the liver damage is mild and even improves with time after seroconversion from HBeAg positivity to anti-HBe. This confirms the results of a study in which pre- and post-seroconversion liver histopathology was compared (5).
In general, the presented study leaves a very optimistic impression of chronic childhood hepatitis B. Without any treatment, none of the children shows any severe complication, neither cirrhosis nor hepatocellular carcinoma. This seems in contrast with East Asian reports, which cautioned against these complications. Maybe this is caused by the important difference in route of transmission: in the Eastern hyper endemic areas it is mostly vertical and children infected in that way remained HBeAg positive for a longer time. It is in this phase of active viral replication that inflammation and necrosis occur while they tend to improve at the end of the replicative period when HBeAg disappears in favour of anti-HBe. Except in the rare cases were cirrhosis has become established (mostly after vertical infection) the patient becomes an asymptomatic carrier with mild or no liver lesions. Nevertheless it is "pushing it" to cry victory at the moment of HBeAg seroconversion to anti-HBe, because reactivation of viral replication with aggressive liver disease is well established in adult life. Progression to liver cancer would even occur in 10 to 14% of those affected who are more than 30 years old (6). This is, however, doubted by the authors since these observations might date from before recognition of hepatitis C and delta.
Söderström et al. succeed quite well in their objective to distinguish between little and severe pathological liver abnormalities in chronic childhood hepatitis B only using noninvasive tests. Serious complications of infection at a young age have however mainly to be feared in adulthood. This provocative cross sectional study should therefore certainly be followed by a long-term longitudinal one. Hepatitis B is a to capricious disease to rely exclusively on present days observations for its prognosis over years.

The New Zealand dollar followed its Australian counterpart lower after official figures showed home lending shrank across the Tasman in December, in another sign of a slowing economy for New Zealand's biggest trading partner.
The kiwi fell to 83.38 US cents at 5pm in Wellington from 83.54 cents this morning and 83.49 cents on Friday in New York. The currency was almost unchanged at 80.91 Australian cents.
The number of loans granted to build or buy a house in Australia fell 1.5 percent in December from a revised 0.7 percent decline in November, according to the Statistics Bureau.
Even after a disappointing jobs report last week, New Zealand's economic fortunes are seen as improving this year, while Australia's are on the decline as its decade-long mining boom comes off the boil.
The yield on New Zealand's 10-year government bond was 3.46 percent at 5pm in Wellington, 33 basis points above its Australian counterpart, even though the Australian benchmark interest rate, at 3.0 percent, is higher than New Zealand's 2.5 percent Official Cash Rate.
"The kiwi data can be disappointing relative to expectations, but compared to the eurozone and Japan, it's still good," says Chris Tennent-Brown, FX economist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia in Sydney. "The data is doing its best to give you a reason to sell the kiwi."
New Zealand's currency is expected to consolidate this week, with strategists mixed on where they see the kiwi moving in a BusinessDesk survey. Three saw it gaining, two saw it little changed and two pick a decline.
The main local event this week is fourth-quarter retail sales on Friday, which is likely to show a 1.1 percent gain in volumes, according to a Reuters survey, bouncing back from a 0.4 percent decline three months earlier.
Ahead of that release, figures tomorrow are expected to show spending on electronic cards in January rose 0.3 percent. Six monthly corporate earnings will also build over the next few weeks.
Markets in China and Japan were closed for the lunar new year, leading to thinner trading volumes than usual.
New Zealand's currency fell to 77.13 yen from 77.40 yen last week and dropped to 62.33 euro cents from 62.50 cents. It declined to 52.74 British pence from 52.86 pence last week, and the trade-weighted index decreased to 75.63 from 75.77.

Like many youth sports organizations, the Vancouver United Soccer Alliance is feeling the squeeze.
With field space at a premium, and prices to rent school district facilities on the rise, finding places to play games and for teams to practice is a growing challenge. Relief, the club hopes, will come in the form of three lighted artificial turf fields at the Harmony Sports Complex in east Vancouver.
VUSA, which serves approximately 1,500 players ages 5-18, hopes to raise $1.5 million in phases over 10 months to complete the project by September of 2012.
"Facilities matter," said Brad Dow, the VUSA's field improvement chairman.
The project would not add more fields to the Harmony complex, located at Northeast 18th Street and 192nd Avenue. It would replace three existing fields — Field 7, Field 8, and Field 9 — on the southern edge of the complex with three contiguous artificial surface fields.
The project is expected to cost between $1.55 million and $1.9 million, Dow said. The breakdown: $950,000 for artificial turf to cover three fields; $500,000 to light those fields; up to $500,000 for grading and other preparation work.
The VUSA has committed $150,000 from its fields budget to the project, and has an estimated $200,000 in grant money. There is also a $300,000 low-interest loan available from Washington Youth Soccer.
Their fundraising goals: $500,000 by the end of this year, an additional $500,000 by May first, and a final $500,000 by Sept. 1. The VUSA hopes construction to begin in May and be completed by Sept. 1.
Dow said if the $500,000 goals aren't met by the target dates of Jan. 1 and May 1, construction will be delayed.
The field squeeze isn't unique to VUSA. Nor are plans to build a lighted field that can be used year-round.
The Salmon Creek Soccer Club plans to build a lighted artificial surface field at H.B. Fuller Park.
If funds can be raised for that project — estimated to cost $750,000 to $800,000 — that field could be ready for use sometime in 2012, according to Salmon Creek Soccer Club president Jeff Thomas. Thomas, who recently became president of the club, said the Salmon Creek club has not yet launched a fundraising campaign for to build its lighted field.
Salmon Creek Soccer Club and its advanced competition club F.C. Salmon Creek serve about 800 players.
Camas-Washougal Soccer Club, the area's largest club at about 1,700 players including its advanced competition wing, has no plans right now to build its own lighted artificial turf field, according to Gary Martschinske, the club's operations manager. CWSC rents artificial turf fields at Camas School District's Doc Harris Stadium and Cardon Field, and at Washougal's Fishback Stadium.
Ron Witherup, the Washington Youth Soccer member services director for southwest Washington, said the lack of fields is the complaint he hears most often, and from every club in the region. He said that school districts, crunched for money, have raised rental rates for artificial turf facilities and have restricted access to grass fields to contain their own maintenance costs.
Teams that play their state cup or statewide leagues during the winter and spring often practice in school gyms, Witherup said.
Dow said that VUSA will rent its lighted fields to other clubs when its teams aren't using it. Dow also predicted the facility will allow VUSA to attract big tournaments to Harmony, which would cut down on travel for some of its teams.
Dow said VUSA has not signed any contracts with artificial turf companies.
The lifetime for the current generation of fake grass fields is eight to 10 years. By saving money currently used for rent, the club could save funds each year to be used for replacing the surface in a decade, Dow said.
VUSA directors officially launched the fundraising effort within the club last month. In Dow's letter to the VUSA membership soliciting donations for the project, he closes with this question: "Isn't it about time we pulled our children out of the mud … ?"

• Vancouver United Soccer Alliance has begun a campaign to raise $1.5 million for three lighted artificial turf fields at Harmony Sports Complex in east Vancouver.
• VUSA formed in 2008 through a merger of the Orchards, Evergreen and Central Vancouver clubs. In 2010, it added the Columbia Timbers advanced competition club.
• Salmon Creek Soccer Club hopes to build one lighted artificial turf field at H.B. Fuller Park — perhaps as soon as 2012.

Tell me the "wrong" word I typed
There is at least one quote that shows up at the beginning of the quiz that infuriates me. It's something about memrise quickly teaching when you're wrong so you don't remember the word wrong. I've been waiting months for memrise to do that. If I remember a word wrong and I type what I think it is, and it tells me I'm wrong, I still don't know what the word is. I still typed the wrong word and have absolutely no idea what that word means, so I'll just get it wrong over and over again until I'm finally tested on it again. (The dictionary being nearly impossible to use means I won't look it up.) In the meantime, I have probably answered it wrong multiple times and screwed up my memory of it so much that it will take me much longer to relearn the correct meaning.
When are we going to check my wrong answers against the dictionary and tell me the correct meaning of the word I typed?
We've been asking for a while to be able to see just what we typed when we get something wrong - sometimes you get a persistent typo that gets between you and the right answer, and it would be nice to know just what you got wrong.
If memrise implements a facility to see what you actually typed, they could say at the same time "this isn't in our dictionary" or " this is in our dictionary, but it means "xxx".

Research Project:
Sustainable Agriculture and
Rural Development
Contact: D. Ferguson
|Ball State University, with the support of the Center for Energy Research,
Education and Service (CERES) and the College of Architecture and Planning,
has engaged in a variety of research efforts in the area of sustainable
agriculture and rural development. The intiatives listed on these pages
describe several projects which use a comprehensive, multidisciplinary
approach to re-thinking' the rural and small town landscape. The projects
are on-going in some cases, and publications describing project results
are available as indicated at the project web-sites.
Alternative Profit Potentials for Rural Indiana
Documentation of a comprehensive planning process which used an existing Indiana farm as a case study - applying a range of planning techniques from GIS mapping of alternative crops to participatory design charettes, to arrive at three alternative farm configurations which would increase diversification and profit of the test farm.
Copies of this report are available through:
Whitewater River Valley Agricultural Market Search
Documentation of a market development process which identified regional markets for diversified farm products which could be produced locally but are currently imported to the region. Of the regional foodstuff institutional buyers who were surveyed, sixty-one percent indicated a willingness to purchase locally produced vegetables and fruits. The total latent market demand for foodstuffs among the sixty-nine surveyed buyers was $3,000,000.

Crop Diversity in East Central Indiana: An Historical Perspective
Data on Indiana agriculture production from 1860 through
1940 was gathered and interpreted to determine the historic patterns of
agricultural cropping in the state. A wide range of crops was identified
as viable for cultivation and processing in Indiana. Products were not
only used locally but were exported nationally and overseas.
Sustainable Urban/Rural Enterprise (SURE)
A process-oriented project which examined an existing community to determine the potential for reconnecting economic ties from rural enterprise to urban markets. The intent was to provide an alternative to extensive import and export practices by using local resources and value-added processing abilities. A variety of technological, economic and social issues were incorporated into the process and some of the concepts were influential in the reconfiguring of community processes.

I will definitely be getting a BlackBerry Q10. I would really like to see the Q10 jumbo sized to phablet form, it would be the most functional one, the reason I say that is because of the screen real estate. The BB Q10 has essentially the same screen width as the N4 but with BB's awesome physical keyboard.
Im falling in love with this new device, very very cool and a high refresh to the "actual" Bold 9900. Battery is 2100 mAh largest ever put into a blackberry smartphone. Should last the day hopefully!

Dirt cheap USB Temperature Sensor with python SMS alerting system.by
In the last few weeks I had to design an effective and cheap temperature monitoring system for the server room. After searching a bit on the web I found this USB Thermometer Temperature dongle on Ebay, only 10 bucks with free shipping. As soon the sensor arrived, I plugged it into one Ubuntu based server and surprisingly worked immediately, below you can see the dmesg output.
[sourcecode language="bash"]
[12737.064004] usb 2-1.3: new low speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
[12737.161227] usb 2-1.3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[12737.164379] input: RDing TEMPer1V1.1 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.3/2-1.3:1.0/input/input6
Along with monitoring the temperature I wanted to have an alarming system that sends alarm SMS message to mobile phones when the temperature has passed a certain threshold. So I subscribed to textmagic, an SMS gateway provider. Textmagic has a good set of API, and of course they have the python API which I used to write my Pytemp2sms.py script.
USB dongle software and settings.
[sourcecode language="bash"]
apt-get install libusb-dev
git clone https://github.com/petervojtek/usb-thermometer.git
cd usb-thermometer/
cp 99-tempsensor.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
cp pcsensor /usr/local/bin/
Reboot the server.
To test the dongle run the pcsensor command .
You must get this kind of output.

Mini has chosen the 2012 Beijing Motor Show to introduce to the world two new models: the Mini Hyde Park and the Mini Cooper S Countryman 'The Chinese Job', with the latter specifically designed for the Chinese market and clearly inspired by the famous 'The Italian Job' movie. Fancy name and a few subtle details aside, this model is just a cosmetic variation of the usual range, in the same fashion as other 'limited editions' released by the English/German manufacturer in the past.
The Mini Hyde Park instead (that we introduced a few days ago along with the Green Park trim) can be easily recognized by its exclusive color scheme, which features Pepper White as basic color and contrasting Hot Chocolate brown for the roof, wing mirrors and a pair of longitudinal stripes. Inside, the Pepper White/Hot Chocolate theme continues, while the seats use mixed leather and fabric upholstery. This special trim - dedicated to the famous park in London - will be made available for the Cooper, Cooper S, Cooper D and Cooper SD models.
At the Mini stall in Beijing there are also all the current variations of the Mini Cooper S: the Clubman, the Countryman, and the more recent Coupe and Roadster, all of which are equipped with the same 184 hp 1.6-litre 4-cylinder engine. Check the whole lot out in our exclusive photo gallery.

Twenty-one-year-old Melissa Laribee, who lost both legs after being struck by a hit-and-run driver in Norwich in October 2012, told a Superior Court judge Friday that the crash destroyed her dreams.
Laribee rolled up to the court bench in a wheelchair to address Judge Kevin P. McMahon as Amalia Rivera, 37, who had pleaded guilty to evading responsibility, a felony, was sentenced to one year in prison.
"I was an independent 20-year-old woman who had my own apartment and future plans to become a police officer," she said. "My dreams were destroyed that night when I became a double, above-the-knee amputee."
Rivera was driving home from Foxwoods Resort Casino when she swerved off the right side of Hamilton Avenue and struck Laribee and her then-boyfriend, Joseph Patch, as they were retrieving items from a parked car, according to police. Patch suffered a collapsed lung.
Though Rivera admitted she had been drinking while gambling at Foxwoods, police did not arrest her for more than three hours after the incident and did not charge her with driving under the influence.
Rivera, who came to court with family members and wore a gray sweatsuit in anticipation of her imprisonment, stood with her attorney, Theodore Kowar, and declined to make a statement.
At Laribee's request, the two women had met in prosecutor Thomas DeLillo's office while the court case was pending.
"I wanted to have a sit-down meeting with her," Laribee said. "I wanted to see her on my own. She was crying and said she has to live with this every day. I said, 'How do you think I feel?'"
Laribee, once a competitive hip-hop dancer, has prosthetic devices but says it is painful to use them. She works at Smith Insurance in Niantic and is hoping to get a car with hand controls as she strives to become independent again.
"I don't want people's help," she said. "I want to do it on my own."
Laribee has bad days like everyone else, but is remarkably strong and cheerful, according to her friend and co-worker, Monica Garrity.
"She gets up every morning," Garrity said. "She gets dressed. She puts her makeup on."
Rivera's car insurance policy had lapsed for nonpayment, so she was uninsured when the crash occurred. Laribee said she is infuriated that there is no system in place in Connecticut, where insurance is mandatory, to punish people who are driving without insurance. Her attorney, Peter J. Bartinik Jr., said Laribee will receive a $250,000 settlement, the most available under Foxwoods' dram shop act, but that most of it will be paid directly to the state for medical bills. Bartinik said the Mashantucket Pequots, owners of Foxwoods, agreed to the settlement even though Rivera was not charged with drunken driving.
Judge McMahon said Laribee had suffered one of the most life-altering injuries he has ever seen. He agreed that there should be a stiffer penalty for uninsured drivers and that insurance could perhaps be made more affordable for people who have no means to pay. Uninsured drivers are subject to court fines of at least $100 and may also be subjected to a $200 fee from the Department of Motor Vehicles.
"Her failure to call 911 or provide any assistance to me whatsoever after hearing my cries for help as I lay broken and mangled on the side of the road shows me that she lacks a substantial amount of personal responsibility," Laribee said in her statement to the court.
Following the Oct. 12, 2012, crash, police recovered a headlight assembly, which had the Chrysler logo. Police checked the area and found a Chrysler 300 with what appeared to be fresh front-end damage at Rivera's home at 40 Donohue Drive.
Rivera told the police she thought she had struck an animal but could not remember the accident and had left the scene because she wanted to go home. She said she didn't drink often and that even small amounts of alcohol affect her.
The Melissa Laribee Fund has been established at Rockville Bank. Donations can be sent to: 99 Linwood Ave., Colchester, CT 06415.

This might be the only blow Chisora lands, if Vitali enters the ring in Munich in a mood to destroy. (Photo courtesy KMG)
FROZEN RINGPOSTS - There should be a lot of added pressure on Vitali Klitschko this Saturday evening in Munich, where the beer is somewhat warm and the air is somewhat frozen, andeach can snap yourbobbing head back.
For Klitschko, the medicine ball was already in his court tokeep the K2promotional juggernaut rolling. Now after DereckChisora'sblindside slap at Friday's weigh in,many people will be watching just to see if thesupremely composed but obviouslyfumingKlitschko can and will become the type of wrecking machine that once upon a time made heavyweight boxing special.
There should also be a lot of added pressure on Chisora, who wants a piece of the big paydays pie and looks willing to go to any extreme to get it.
Really though, the addedpressure should be on both Klitschko and Chisora not as autonomous opponents butas a performing pair, beyond the single scope of their scheduled 12 rounds. There should be pressureto do everything they can toregain respect for their weight division.
Klitschko - Chisoramight be a pretty big fight in this part of civilization, but it isn't really significant to mainstream, present day sportingimpact. The fighters and their teamsneed to aknowledge this. When a guy used to say he'd rather get knocked out than stink out the joint before booing fans, it was the kind of attitudethat made boxing a more popular distraction.
This fight should be about more than just Klitschko, Chisora and related bragging rights. This fight should spotlight the entire division, recognizing current inadequacies in relation to the fans.
This fight should announce the return of the giants. The return of blood, sweat, tears and inspiration, XXL sized.
Within the next 30 days, the heavyweights have a chance to regain at least a fair portion of lost glory.That means both Klitschkos, Chisora, Alexander Povetkin, Marco Huck and even generallydismissed long shot Jean Marc Mormeck should feel a sense of obligation to their livelihoods.A recovery mission at all costs.
Financial dataon boxing paydays is more hard to come by around here than in the States, but there's no doubt that Klitschko, Chisora and the restarecollecting some prettygood euros, pounds or bucks. Let's hope they earn as much newfound respect.
Style wise, the heavyweight fights should guarantee more splattering sprawls and highlight reel thuds than either Manny Pacquiaoagainst Timothy Bradley or FloydMayweather against Miguel Cotto. There's no reason that by mid-June, the 200 plus pounders shouldn't have taken a big step back toward respectability.
First up this Saturday, before a sell out crowd of over 12,000, Klitschko and Chisora will try and do their parts. Vitali may be unspectacular in his approach, but hehas been so effective overall that every performance from now on is further evidence of hissolid historical status, debated not all that often these days but probably soon to be.
There is probably not afoe Vitali hasclobbered latelywho didn't enter with decent skills and a decent plan. There is probably not a man among thatgroup whose plan didn't start getting altered after the first or second overhand right slammed in, usually by the end of the first frame.
Consistent aggression is definitely the requisite starting point. Based on recent form, Chisoraseems torate pretty high on the scale of proven pluck. That won'tcount for muchunless he backs it up with an effective attack, but at least it gives hima fighting chance.
Whether he can prove more effectivethan Arreola or Tomasz Adamek, other boxers of similar size and strategy, is the question.
If Chisora, around a 4 - 1 underdog,somehow triumphs in any manner, the bout becomes a much bigger story and Chisora's low grade antics will be elevated toeffective cunning. If he gives Klitschko trouble but gets stopped early, Chisora will still be looked at favorably and with marketability. Klitschkoneeds to cream Chisora or explain what happened.
A week later, Povetkin and Hucktake the baton in a fight that widely favors Povetkin, but the swarm in Stuttgart won't care because Huck will press the action until it presses him.
On March 3rd,Wladimir Klitschko should promise to stop Mormeck within 5 rounds or donate a quarter of his purse to charity.
This is an election year in the US, once and maybe again somedaya lucrative market for heavyweight boxers. Any global heavyweightmulling around the K2/EU watering holeshould elect to let the punches flowmore freely and regain abandoned territory in the public consciousness.This three weekend stretch is likelythe division's biggest chance to shine in years.
What else"should" happen isobvious.
The pressure should be shared, not only to win, but to go for it. Spectacular knockout or out onthe crackedshield.
Never throw fewer than a hundred punches a round.
There's much more to it than just showing up in shape and going the distanceif you want fans to return. Still, rumbling redemption for the heavyweights could be closer than many critics claim.
Remember, although the Kbros actualy battling in aserious competition beyond game boards is beyond doubtful, they did go throughsparring motions togetherduring a workout, feinting and shadowboxing from a safe distance that didn't illustrate much in regard to an actual matchup.
It was only a training exercise, but they were in the ring, throwing punches, however restrained. That's already more thanPacquiao and Mayweather are likely to doin the same ring anytime soon.
The Klitschkos may never equal Mayweather's fluidity or Pacquiao's propulsion, but that doesn't mean they can't be inequally or evenmore exciting contests.
Chisora may lack class as a citizen, but he'sperforming at a first class level of boxingand backed up some previous boasts.At least he tries towalk the walk.
Chisora's slap at the weigh in was a cheap shot. Unfortunately, it may also besymbolic of the type wake up call heavyweight boxing needs.
Perhaps the immediate future will provide a tellingmicrocosm of the division for 2012 and beyond, better or worse.
If the next three weekends don't see significant strides by the big boys, they have nobody but themselves to blame. Ongoing audience derision, or worse, continued indifference, wouldcertainlybe deserved.
Chisucka -- I mean Chisora -- is an idiot. He could be out of a lot of money for injuring his meal ticket before the bout even started. It is time for the powers that be to stop all these uncalled-for tough-boy acts of the combatants. Save hitting one another for the ring.
Chisora is all bad and jive and hitting syet because the start of the bout, but I'm willing to bet that he won't find Doc VK all-night long in dat squared jungle. Chisora is a skunk. And his stench has already started. And this is one time that I hope one of the K-bros/doc knock the smell out of an opponent. Now I'm going to eyeball the bout just see if it will happen. Holla!
that is what i call a bitch move...head to head during a stare and dude sucker slaps him...
vitali is a professional and true to the word, i can see him aggressively stepping on the gas early on and getting dude out of there in 4 rounds...
he will take this personally.
Ditto that Amayseng, total bitch move. Just saw the footage on FNF, Chisora stepped away as soon a he slapped Vit. If he really wanted to tag Vitali he should have blasted him like Riddick Bowe did Larry Donald. Donald was too scared to throw a punch the next night during the fight.
dont get me wrong i am all for fueling a fight and getting some fire going on both sides for a good fight...
however, to sucker slap another man like that, i would rather someone punch me than slap me, that is disrespectful
Yep, yep, agree again.
the look on Vitalis' face was priceless, his response was almost brotherly... as if he wanted to coach Chisora on how to hype a fight... now Chisora will have to deal with Vitalis wrath... but I think that's what he wanted all along.
Amayseng I feel u I'd rather be punched then slap...The good thing about it Vitali gets to kick his *** for doing some punk sh*t.
C'mon, B-Sug! It's the right hand over the left fist, not vice versa! The humble Zen Buddhists would be rattled by that Zen pose of yours.
They may have to go; "Everybodeee was Con Fu fightinnnggggg! Those fists were fast as lightninnnggggg!" I hear those lyrics when I was a little farts.
And I'm bored as a mutha waiting around for all these takes and retakes of Da Great's 7-0 celebration in Sin City. I was about ready to commit some sin, but my evil-twin wife showed up look liking Sister Belinda Ali, when she [Sister Belinda] whupped the GOAT's arse in that suite at a hotel in Manila back in 1975 before "The Thrilla in Manila" when Radam G -- me -- was still a bad-arse rugrat. Hehehe!
Man, Sister Belinda was all dat and a bag of chip and a ton of whup-a$$. And "those who forget history, are condemned to repeated it." Ain't forgot nuffin.' And I don't want to end up taking a Buffrin! There will be no wife whuppin' my arse tonight. The rest of the night I'm a saint, and I'm telling every lady of the night -- AIN'T! Holla!
well at least chisora went for it, applied pressure, went to the body, followed a bit up top.....
vitali won, but it was still a bit boring, im kinda disappointed in vitali, dude slaps you and then spits water in your brothers face and you dont starch him out of there..
also, vitali was on the run all night, on his back foot, this wasnt ali boxing away masterfully, was was vitali doing enough to win rounds and keep his distance...
This was the most Vitali has had to fight in a long time. Too bad Chisora didn't come in 10 - 15 pounds lighter. After the slap heard around the world at least Chisora tried unlike all those other guys that were discouraged after three rounds and gave up. As much as all their fights are boring, there is no competition around, and the height differential they enjoy which influences the outcomes of their fights, I have to like the Klitschko's because they conduct themselves well and no matter how boring they win. This was the best fight I've seen either of them in, in a long time. David Haye should go some where. He is still talking like he did before he did the big flop in the fight that was a big flop. Chisora's stock as a fighter rose tonight.
Chisora is a shitcan of a man, all the way, and for the first time ever, I wished that Lil Bro would loose his cool, go headhunting after the final bell and create a classic bareknuckle-follow-up-fight.
Wlad will take on this guy - the storyline is already there, with personal need for revenge, etc, and he will use his more fluid movement and better jab to smooth him up for the kill. And down the line, in 3 years time, when none of the Big K's is around anymore, I will miss them sorely - not for what they did in the ring, but for what everyone else is not capable of doing. Good damn, it's really depressing when Chisoras performance is hailed as the arrival of a saviour.
Kudos to Chisora for making it interesting, While the Brittish Wildman Dereck "Del Boy" Chisora is certainly no model citizen,...he is a model challenger, with only 20 amateur fights under his belt and 17 pro fights he's proves that the main factor to challenging the Kbrothers is simply being a "Big Dude". Chisora landed 45% of his punches to Vitalis' 35% but thru 20% less. Mainly a scrapper and not a precision boxer,.. Chisora did well with his limited resources.
B-Sug - about that 45%, I'm watching it over - over and over, Klitschko is picking and parrying, sliding his head back and away from rights - there is no way that punch stat is accurate. A very small percentage of Chisora's admittedly busy efforts actually made contact. Take into account, too, that Klitschko didn't use his left after the fourth round, and barely until then, due to some injury - he won it by that much of a margin one-handed.
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

DEKALB, Ill. - The Northern Illinois University softball team returns to conference action when the Huskies welcome Akron and Ohio to Mary M. Bell Field this weekend.
Northern Illinois (17-27, 7-7) will face Akron in doubleheader action Friday and will take on Ohio Saturday and Sunday. The Zips come into town 18-24 overall and 4-10 in league play. Ohio, which opens the weekend at Western Michigan Friday, is 23-22, 6-8 in the MAC. Friday's action begins at 1 p.m. CT, while first pitch for Saturday and Sunday's games will be 2 p.m. and 1 p.m. respectively. Fans can follow all the action live via Gametracker at NIUHuskies.com.
This weekend is Alumni Weekend at Northern Illinois. NIU Athletics would like to welcome all former Huskie softball players, coaches and their families to Alumni Weekend April 26-28. There will be a reception at Fatty's Pub and Grille following Saturday's game and a pregame tailgate Sunday before the Huskies take on the Bobcats. For more information or to RSVP, contact assistant director of development Kyle Skarb at 815-753-9198.
The Huskies enter play on a six-game conference winning streak and look to rebound from a 5-4 setback to UIC Wednesday at home. NIU went 4-0 last weekend, taking doubleheaders from Kent State and Buffalo, and swept Eastern Michigan at Mary M. Bell Field April 13-14. Northern Illinois is currently third in the Mid-American Conference West Division standings and fifth in the race for the eight MAC Tournament spots. NIU head coach Christina Sutcliffe knows this is an important weekend for the Huskies.
"Winning six straight is huge for our program," Sutcliffe said. "We're definitely going into the weekend trying to win three out of four. I have a feeling if we win four more MAC games, we're in the tournament. That's our goal and we're doing what we need to to get there."
Erika Oswald (Glenview, Ill./Glenbrook South) has stepped up her play in league games batting .395 in MAC games, well her season average of .259. Her two home runs on the season came against conference foes, while 13 of her 22 RBIs have come against MAC opponents.
Pitcher Emily Norton (Oak Forest, Ill./Oak Forest) has come on since the start of league play. She accounted for six of NIU's seven conference wins this season, going 4-0 against Kent State and Buffalo. The right hander has an earned run average of 3.82 in league action, allowing 39 runs, 32 earned, on 58 hits while striking out 33.
Lefty Jessica Sturm (Wichita, Kan./Goddard) has pitched better than her numbers reflect. She is 1-4 in conference play with a 3.08 ERA, allowing 29 runs, 16 earned. Sturm and Norton have provided Sutcliffe with a solid 1-2 punch from the circle, keeping opposing batters off their feet.
"Jess and Emily can have their moments," she said. "They're two completely different pitchers. It's sometimes hard to say which one will do better against an opponent. We're trying to patch them both together. When one gets in trouble, look to bring the other one in. That's been our thought process going in, that they will split the game and finish each other out."

Conquering Classroom Management
by Elizabeth Supan, Monthly Columnist
I've always thought of teaching as a multi-career. I'm sure you know exactly what I mean. I'm a teacher, a mother, a nurse, a therapist, a counselor, a referee, a coach, and more. How do we possibly get to the "teaching" part of our jobs with all of the other jobs that we do as teachers? The answer to that is not simple, but one that boils down to one thing: classroom management. It's the hardest part of the job in a lot of cases. However, it is the part of the job that needs to be tackled first and maintained all year long.
At the beginning of each year, I send a letter home to parents listing my expectations for classroom behavior. In my "Back to School" letter I also include information about policies and procedures for the year. I used to send this letter home on the first day of school, but I've realized as a parent myself that too much information is not necessarily a good thing. On the first day, so many papers come home that this very important letter sometimes gets lost in the pile. Therefore, I now send the letter home a week later.
In the letter I explain the system I use to track student behavior. I use a system of numbers. Each day my students can receive a score of 20 if all rules were followed. I used to print out a sheet with a chart that specified specific behaviors. For each of the five categories, students would earn a total of four points. This, in turn, would add up to 20 points for the day. Now, I simply write the 20 in the student's daily agenda. This is simple and easy and takes very little time at the end of the day. By the end of the week, all of the twenties should total a 100. Each time a rule is broken, a notation is made on a behavior chart that I keep in my possession. With each notation on the chart, five points are deducted from the day's total.
I still chart specific behaviors, or offenses, and will write notes in the agenda as I see it is necessary. Since time is of the essence every afternoon, I've also begun writing just a code for the offense. For example, when a child is missing a homework assignment, I simply write "HW". I put a sticky label of all of the codes I use in the front of each student's agenda. Parents can refer to this code list to see which rule was broken. This method is simple, easy and to the point.
This system has worked for me for years. I really think that the reason it works is that it is simple and informative. Parents know to look for the 20 at the end of each day. Students like seeing what their total is at the end of the week. Even though we don't grade behavior and conduct grades aren't given, parents and students still relate to an average. If the weekly average is equivalent to an "A", then I allow my students to get a treat from our treat box or a homework pass.
Classroom management is by far the hardest part of the job. Finding a system that works for you isn't always easy. Even though I've essentially used the same system for years, I've had to tweak it each year to meet the needs of my students. The most important thing to remember is that keeping an organized system in place will allow you to focus on teaching, rather than behavior, as the year progresses.

An unusual national hunt is on for scientists and lab technicians where volunteers may be called upon to examine some rather extra-terrestrial samples, according to Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) Executive Director Jan C. Harzan.
As the largest UFO study group with field investigators in 37 countries around the world and in all 50 states, Harzan, reached at his Newport Beach, CA, headquarters office today, said the request for more science-based laboratory help is in response to the organization's growth and the increasing numbers of UFO reports MUFON is receiving.
"We need more scientists on call," Harzan said, "and we're now appealing nationally to get ahead of the cases we expect to receive that requires this kind of serious study."
Board Member Vicki Leblanc said the growth in physical evidence cases demands clear scientific analysis and the necessary scientific help in the laboratory.
"Over the last couple of years MUFON has tried to alleviate this situation and enhance the scientific approach by formation of the Science Review Board and other measures, but this is just a start," she said. "We have wonderful experts who give freely of their time, but we need more as dictated by the volume and variety of the work that we have."
Leblanc said MUFON needed more help from all scientific fields.
"I would specifically like to add more experts in the fields of metallurgy, DNA, astrophysics, propulsion and extraterrestrial biology."
Science Review Board Director Robert Powell agreed.
"Our goal is to bring more and more scientific methodologies to the study of the UFO phenomenon," Powell said.
The advertisement, which first appeared in the February MUFON UFO Journal, reads: "If you are a materials scientist or lab technician you may be able to help us solve the UFO mystery. We need experts from every field to conduct scientific testing on a large variety of artifacts which from time to time are provided to MUFON for testing. Volunteer NOW to be on the front line of UFO research."
Interested parties are being asked to call Harzan at 949.476.8366 or reply to firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Installation Management Command 2025 and Beyond (IMCOM 2025) Campaign Plan operationalizes the vision of the Commanding General, Installation Management Command for 2025. This plan supports overarching national, DoD, and Army strategies. IMCOM 2025 and Beyond is designed to bridge IMCOM's current gap in describing its long-term vision of innovative activities across the near, mid, and far terms. This plan is intended as a change management document to guide, shape, and drive the direction of the Command and future actions. The plan provides the necessary strategic guidance and a framework to progress toward the IMCOM 2025 endstate. As IMCOM moves into the future it must enable the Army's Force in 2025 and Beyond by providing the right base support at the right cost.
This plan begins in Fiscal Year (FY) 15 with a campaign period of seven years, but as a strategy looks as far out as 2025 and beyond. Fiscal Year 15 is the execution year, FY16 is the budget year, and for planning purposes FY17-21 are aligned with the Program Objective Memorandum (POM), Future Years Defense Program (FYDP), and the end of the 2021 sequestration period. The plan is applicable to all of IMCOM's components: headquarters, regions, Army Environmental Command, and garrisons. Garrison commanders will incorporate this strategic framework into their overall Installation Plan--in doing this we create a culture that both enables IMCOM's base support mission that supports accomplishment of the Army's mission to fight and win our nation's wars.

Austin, Texas — Opposition to the urban rail scheme proposed by Project Connect, a consortium of several government transportation agencies, has continued to gain momentum — spearheaded mainly by pro-rail transit groups and activists in the community. As previously reported by Examiner, the 9.5-mile rail proposal, projected to cost over a billion dollars, has been the focus of particular criticism as a weak route offering relatively low ridership.
With the headline Project Connect's urban rail plan is "worse than nothing", a July 21 article on the strongly pro-rail Austin Rail Now website criticizes Project Connect's vigorous tax-funded advertising campaign as "saturation-bombing" to promote "its $1.4 billion urban rail plan, primarily aimed at bolstering development plans and centered on the interests of private developers and the East Campus expansion appetites of the University of Texas administration." (Disclosure: The article is co-authored by Dave Dobbs and this reporter, also a contributing editor to the site.)
The article describes the tax-funded effort as
a "Pinocchio-style" campaign (and plan) packed with exaggerations contrived to try to sucker voter support. Perhaps the worst problem is the "city-wide system" deception that Project Connect is pushing in its ad blitz — the make-believe that an urban rail line on East Riverside through the East Campus to Highland will lead to rail in other parts of the city.
In reality, claims the article, "just the opposite will happen. The staggering cost will soak up available local funding for years to come — and that in itself will impede future rail transit development." It concludes that "A plan that impedes good transit development and future system expansion is worse than nothing."
A day earlier, the July 20 Austin American-Statesman published an op-ed by Marcus Denton, a leader of the pro-rail group Austinites for United Rail Action (AURA), similarly warning that "the city's proposal to spend $1 billion doubling down on highways and highway-oriented urban rail is worse than doing nothing." Noting that "many of the city's staunchest public transportation proponents oppose the road-rail bond package as a threat to the city's transportation future and a setback for walkable urbanism in Austin", Denton recommended that "Austin voters should join with grass-roots public transportation advocates in rejecting it in November and working toward real solutions."
These latest criticisms join those of a growing chorus of Austin activists and civic leaders raising doubts about Project Connect's proposal. In a May 7th Austin Business Journal column, staff writer and real estate market specialist Jan Buchholz provided a scathing assessment:
The latest rail plan rolled out … is a $1.4 billion project that will run from Highland Mall to East Riverside Drive. Already, folks are decrying its high cost, but I don't think it's the cost that's the real issue. It's the fact that it's a very small plan benefiting a limited group of people. That makes this price tag hard to swallow.
Austin can expect the barrage of criticism of the plan, as well as exhortations of support, to intensify as a likely Nov. 4 vote — on a proposed $1 billion bond measure to fund the local match for road projects as well as the urban rail plan — comes closer.

Programmed Cell Death
Selective death of cells, tissues, and organs is an
essential feature of plant development and survival.
The term programmed cell death refers to any process
by which protoplasm, with or without the cell wall that
encloses it, is eliminated as part of a developmental
or adaptive event in the life cycle of the plant. Plants
dispose of unwanted cytoplasm or whole cells by several
mechanisms, including self-ingestion (autophagy), lysis
(lysigeny), or a kind of mummification (as seen in endosperm
formation). PCD is essential for normal reproductive
and vegetative development and for responses to environmental
stresses. During senescence (a PCD-like process associated
with the terminal stages of organ development), specific
genes are expressed, some of which have been cloned
and their promoters analyzed. Stay-green mutants are
genetic variants in which expression of senescence-associated
genes is impaired.
Senescing cells are metabolically
active. The chlorophyll degradation pathway is turned
on, accompanied by the unmasking or accumulation of
carotenoids and other pigments. Proteins are broken
down, and the mobilized organic nitrogen and organic
sulfur are exported from senescing leaves. Catabolism
of nucleic acids releases inorganic phosphate. Photosynthesis
declines, and peroxisomes are redifferentiated into
glyoxysomes, which convert lipids to sugars. Metabolic
regulation during senescence involves responses to cellular
redox conditions, compartmentation, and differential
susceptibility of enzymes to proteolysis. Senescence
is sensitive to growth regulators, particularly to the
senescence-promoter ethylene and to cytokinins, which
act as senescence antagonists.
Senescence is used both
as part of adaptive strategies that ensure seasonal
survival and as a tactic deployed when an unpredictable
stress is experienced. Formation of TE and mobilization
of cereal endosperm are examples of developmental PCD.
Zinnia leaf mesophyll cells induced to form TE in culture
are a valuable model of cell death. Several different
pathways lead to death of starchy endosperm and aleurone
cells in cereals. Ethylene can induce PCD in starchy
endosperm cells, and GA and ABA regulate cell death
in cereal aleurone. An example of PCD under an abiotic
environmental stress is aerenchyma formation, which
is a response to limited oxygen availability, such as
when roots are flooded. Ethylene mediates aerenchyma
formation, and signaling between ethylene production
and hypoxia sensing is mediated by calcium.
The hypersensitive response
is an example of PCD related to biotic stress and has
its own effect on the programmed nature of cell death.
Lesion-mimic mutants are useful models for analyzing
HR. Such mutations in Arabidopsis fall into two groups:
those that trigger defense responses, and those that
do not. Lesion-mimic mutants primarily affect cell death
in the context of the defense response to pathogens
but apparently have no effect on other events in developmental
cell death. Reactive oxygen intermediates are a key
trigger in PCD accompanying the HR. HR can be compared
with apoptosis, a type of PCD in animals that has been
intensively researched and has been an influential general
model for PCD and its regulation. Future directions
for PCD research include the relationship between programmed
cellular processes and whole-organism aging.

I ordered this cosplay for an event and received it much earlier than I expected! The quality as just perfect, I've barely worn in and gotten so many compliments! This is extremely comfortable, yet looks great! I had the belt changed to a golden sash, and it looks wonderful. My favorite part would be the long sleeves, I find them so cute. Thank you so much for this wonderful cosplay!~

Every player's action has consequences for the war effort.
Action, Strategy and Casual
The Heroes & Generals game experience consists of three major game modes.
The Action game is a modern multiplayer First Person Shooter game with multiple game modes, such as assaulting/defending an important strategic area, penetrating behind enemy lines to destroy supplies, gather intelligence or destroy enemy air defenses. Players' progress, request for reinforcements/air strikes/etc. are fed up through the chain of command to the players playing the strategy game.
The Strategy game lets players enjoy the strategic side of waging war, devise grand plans and manage support, reinforcements and logistics. Set up defenses and plan attacks and support the boys on the ground as they fight their way through the enemy lines.
Handheld and casual games add yet another layer to the fray. From a smartphone or on your favourite social network you can provide valuable support to the war effort. Control your assault teams and reinforce friends, block an enemy pincer-movement etc. In the future we are planning on adding more stand-alone support games that might include; decoding enemy intelligence, executing bombing raids and other ways to support both players playing the action game and the general staff planning the grand strategies.
Whether you are sitting in front of a high-end gaming pc or standing on the bus you can enjoy the game and have fun while doing your part for the war effort.
Create a character and take him from green recruit to what YOU want him to be; The war's greatest Rifleman, Sniper, Tank Commander, Fighter Pilot, Defensive genius, Intelligence Officer, Anti-Aircraft gunner etc.
User Driven Development
Our players are the game's greatest asset and we have a strong focus on including the players in the development process and listen to their wants. Many players have great ideas for the game they would like to play. We have the game making experience necessary to take these ideas into the game in the most enjoyable way. By listening to what the players want and interacting with the community we can not only give you, the player, what you want, but also give you the things you did not know you would enjoy.
Please tell us what you love, what you hate, make a wish, or let us know if something is a little quirky.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tyler Bray threw three touchdown passes, two of them to Justin Hunter, and Tauren Poole ran for two more as Tennessee got its first Southeastern Conference win of the season with a 52-14 victory over Ole Miss on Saturday.
It's also Derek Dooley's first SEC win as Tennessee's coach and first streak of two wins. The Vols have never gone a season without an SEC win and have won at least three conference games every season since 1977.
It also snapped Tennessee's six-game losing streak against SEC West opponents.
On Tennessee's first play from scrimmage, Bray attempted a pass to Gerald Jones which was tipped by Ole Miss' Jonathan Cornell right into the hands of Justin Hunter. Hunter had 80 yards of green space and took it all the way to the end zone.
The Vols (4-6, 1-5) were in control the whole game, thanks to Bray's passing. The Vols had only seven yards on the ground in the first half but countered it with 265 yards by air.
By the end of the game, Tennessee had outgained Ole Miss 441 yards to 295 on offense.
Bray finished 18 for 34 with 323 yards. In two games as the starter, Bray has completed 37 of 67 for 648 yards and eight touchdowns without turning the ball over.
Hunter had 114 yards on three catches and Poole had 107 yards on 12 carries.
Ole Miss (4-6, 1-5) couldn't get its offense going with Jeremiah Masoli being pressured by the Vols' defensive line all day. The Rebels entered the game having given up only seven sacks in eight games, but the Vols took Masoli down twice and sacked backup Nathan Stanley once.
Tennessee took a 21-0 lead with 2:33 left in the first quarter when Eric Gordon picked off a pass by Masoli at the Rebels 46 and ran it back for a touchdown. Prentiss Waggner returned another Masoli interception for a score, his third touchdown on an interception return this season, setting a Tennessee record.
Masoli finished 7-for-18 with 80 yards, three interceptions and no touchdowns, and the quarterback known for his scrambling abilities had even less success on the ground with 22 yards rushing.
Ole Miss entered the game with a ground game that ranked second in the SEC and 13th in the nation, and the Rebels tailbacks did their best to make up for Masoli's struggles. Brandon Bolden ran for 113 yards and scored on touchdown runs of 17 yards and 2 yards for the Rebels' only scores.

Hi there,
I'm a new poster. I've had various digestive problems for years including constipation and hemorrhoids. . I finally saw a gastroenterologist who put me on nightly miralax. Shortly after this I started having mild fecal incontinence. I just recently saw a colorectal surgeon who told me I needed a hemorrhoidectomy and also to remove a skin tag I had in the area. I asked him about the incontinence and he thought it was possible the surgery would take care of that as well.
I am now 10 days post op from the hemorrhoidectomy. It's been incredibly painful but I'm healing. The first 8 days the incontinence disappeared completely. I only had a little bit of bleeding. Starting last night it has returned
I am so completely unhappy and in despair. Honestly the only reason I went through this was thinking it would solve the incontinence. I don't like the pain of the hemorrhoids but I could have lived with it. I just don't know what to do now.
He wants to do some kind of test with a balloon and I don't know what exactly that entails. I don't know what they can do to stop this.... if there's even worse surgery out there, I honestly don't know if I could handle anything else done now.
Has anyone else experienced this and has any hope for me?
I was so excited it was gone for 8 days.. i felt so much better about myself and not so gross. I don't know why it came back? It was like completely gone?
Any help and info and encouragement would be most welcome. I'm very, very depressed right now. Thank you.
Personal info: I am in my late forties and in generally good health.

JANE BIRKIN, the Arabesque tour
A portrait of Jane Birkin during her "Arabesque" tour, where she makes her way across regions, countries and entire continents, occasionally stopping off at prisons, playing in the open air at festivals, or simply going back on the road with her musicians.
The film tells the story of this musical adventure from back stage. A « making of » of the tour, a road-movie full of stories both funny and serious, moving and unexpected.
Jane Birkin tells it her way - the challenge, the joy, the dangers and the fear. Sometimes becoming discouraged but always with an infinite love for the lyrics.
