If you thought it was a coincidence that Orlando Bloom and Justin Bieber just happened to bump into each other at a club in Ibiza, Spain earlier this week, think again. It turns out the island off the coast of Valencia is a serious celeb hotspot – and it has been for decades.
On Friday, ET Online posted a video from the knowledgeable Lance Bass, who had the inside scoop on why stars like Bieber, Paris Hilton, Kanye West, Leonardo DiCaprio, Lindsay Lohan, Zac Efron, Michelle Rodriguez, and Kim Kardashian and her clan, are spending their summer vacations in Ibiza.
"Celebs get paid when they go to these clubs," Bass explained. "Some of these celebs probably get about $50,000 just to appear at a club and drink their liquor." In exchange, they're expected to tout the island on social media. And tout it they do.
The Herald Sun compiled a series of Instagram pictures from celebs who have been spotted in Ibiza in recent months, including a clubbing Will Smith, a sunning Kate Hudson, and a partying Naomi Campbell (with Diddy, no less!). And the pics are proof that in addition to a really hot nightlife (like Privilege nightclub, a 10,000 person venue that is billed as the largest in the world), Ibiza boasts some really cool beaches and scenery.
But it's not like today's celebs suddenly discovered some hidden gem in Ibiza. According to the real estate website A Place in the Sun, old school Hollywood glam stars like Errol Flynn, Elizabeth Taylor and Ursula Andress were regular visitors to this European destination back in the 1950s. More recently, everyone from supermodel Elle McPherson to Mick Jagger have owned homes on the island.
Modern day social media has definitely put Ibiza in the spotlight, though, so now we finally know what we've been missing. So if you want the chance to see a yacht lounging Leo DiCaprio or a jet-skiing Justin Bieber, you'd better book your tickets to this celeb party capital now.

BOULDER - The University of Colorado has been nominated as one of the top college basketball student sections in the country and is asking for fan support to help win the prestigious title.
Buffs fans will now have a say in determining the most deserving student section by voting for the Naismith Student Section of the Year Award. By visiting facebook.com/ILoveCollegeHoops, Colorado fans can vote once per day for C-Unit as the top student section in college basketball. The winning student section gets bragging rights, while the winning school will receive $10,000 to be used in its general scholarship fund.
C-Unit was one of eight finalists for last year's award and continues to get national attention while cheering the Buffs to an astounding 39-5 home record under head coach Tad Boyle. Last season, 50 of the most loyal fans in C-Unit got expense paid trips to Los Angeles for the Pac-12 Conference Tournament, where the Buffs won four games in four days to take home the title, and to Albuquerque, N. M., where the Buffs made it to the third round of the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship.
The Naismith Student Section of the Year Award, which is presented through a partnership of The Collegiate Licensing Company (CLC), an affiliate of IMG College, and the Atlanta Tipoff Club, administrators of the Naismith Awards, is dedicated to celebrating fans that love college hoops and provide support to their college basketball team with devotion and passion.
"College basketball student sections showcase the emotion, energy and passion that define what it means for a team to truly have a home court advantage, and we want to celebrate that," said Catherine Gammon, Senior Vice President of Brand Development for CLC. "We encourage all fans to cast their vote and ensure their favorite school gets recognized for the spirit they display in supporting their team."
The winner will be determined through two rounds of public votes, combined with a scoring of finalists by the Naismith Awards Board of Selectors, which will review criteria such as the student section's name and attendance, as well as photos, video and a write-up submitted by the nominating school. Complete details on the selection process can be found at facebook.com/ilovecollegehoops.
Last year's basketball season marked the inaugural Naismith Student Section of the Year Award, with the University of Kansas serving as the official winner of the competition.

The New Mexico Environment Department has ordered the Department of Energy to seal two rooms in the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant after a recent radiation leak which remains unexplained, the Albuquerque Journal reported in a May 20 story. The facility experienced a radiation leak on Feb. 14 which appears to be continuing. It is believed that a reaction between organic kitty litter and some of the waste which is stored in barrels may have caused a fire or release of nuclear waste in the facility.
The U.S. Department of Energy operates the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in southeaster New Mexico. It is located in a former salt mine, about a half mile below the surface. The plant is the only storage facility in the nation for waste that has been contaminated by plutonium and other man-made radioactive elements.
The waste consists of two types, based on the radioactivity they emit. About 96 percent of the waste can be handled by personnel working directly with the storage container that it is in. The remainder is too radioactive to be in contact with and is handled remotely. Clumping kitty litter is added to containers that have liquids in them to solidify the material.
The Washington Post reported May 20 that the leak on Feb. 14 contaminated 22 plant personnel. The leak may be tied to a change in the kitty litter being used, from inorganic to organic, which was done in Jan. 2013. The paper notes that New Mexico's Environment Secretary Ryan Flynn called the 300 plus barrels of waste in the plant "an imminent and substantial endangerment to health or the environment."
The Post states that 368 barrels of the nuclear waste are underground, 57 remain at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and more than 100 are being stored at a West Texas facility. Some of the barrels were treated with the organic kitty litter.
The Houston Chronicle reports that the nuclear waste sent to Texas is being stored above ground at a facility operated by Waste Control Specialists in Andrews County, TX. The Chronicle says that 57 barrels containing nitrate salts and the organic litter are the concern for New Mexico. The barrels are said to be distributed between the Lab, the Texas facility and the salt mine.
The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is shutdown. The situation in the two affected rooms remains unclear since conditions do not allow personnel to enter some of the storage area. A camera was used on May 20 to inspect room seven, where heat damage to containers and wrappings and damage to bags of magnesium oxide was visible.

The South Florida Water Management District today approved plans for Universal Orlando to extend the queue of their popular Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey attraction inside the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Islands of Adventure. The plans call for a new outdoor path to be constructed alongside Hogwarts castle, attached to the existing queue, allow more guests to line up to ride.
Since its debut in June 2010, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey has drawn large crowds of fans and theme park patrons interested in being transported to the worlds created in the popular movie and book series. Now it seems Universal wants to offer even more room for these crowds to spread out when visiting.
The plans read as follows:
The proposed pavement areas associated with this application will be used as an additional sidewalk/queue area on the east side of Building 245 to route and stage park guests waiting for access to the Building 245 attraction.
Building 245? that the application from Universal Studios refers to is the show building for Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey.
Below is the approved drawing of the new pathway:

To overcome agency problems, public sector reforms started to introduce businesslike incentive structures to motivate public officials. By neglecting internal behavioral incentives, however, these reforms often do not reach their stated goals. Our research analyzes the governance structure of Benedictine monasteries in order to gain new insights into solving agency problems in public institutions. A comparison is useful because members of both organizational forms, public organizations and monasteries, see themselves as responsible participants in their community and claim to serve the public good. We study monastic governance from an economic perspective. Benedictine monasteries in Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, and German-speaking Switzerland have an average lifetime of almost 500 years, and only a quarter of them broke up because of agency problems. We argue that they were able to survive for centuries due to an appropriate governance structure, relying strongly on the intrinsic motivation of the members and internal control mechanisms. This governance approach differs in several aspects from current public sector reforms.

Some days it sucks being a fan of a back-to-back 30th place team, okay most days it does. You keep wanting, hoping and praying that your team will improve, but in reality you know it will be a few more years before you can actually draft one of them in your playoff draft.
I'm guessing it becomes a real drag around July 1st when you know that your team likely won't be making any significant signings, and you are destined to watch another season without playoffs.

I didn't realize John Vanderslice ran a construction company in Cape Town under a pretty poor fake name. What can't that guy do?
By the way, his free EP is further proof that he's the nicest guy in indie rock and it's totally worth checking out. Here's my favorite track:

Qatar maintained its unbeaten run on the third day of the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas Asia/Oceania Zone Group IV event being played at the Dubai Aviation Club on Wednesday.
The Gulf nation secured their third win on the trot with a 2-1 result against Jordan to stay on top of Pool A, while Turkmenistan – the only other unbeaten team in Pool B – had an off day on Wednesday.
Singapore strengthened their claim for a place in the 'qualifying group' from Pool A along with Turkmenistan with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Bangladesh, while in a Pool B match Myanmar returned from their break on Tuesday to secure a 3-0 thrashing of winless Kyrgystan and Bahrain – 0-3 losers to Singapore on the opening day – came back roaring from their break to outlast Iraq 2-1.
Ironically, Iraq had defeated Bahrain last year by the same scoreline in their fight for the night and tenth place. "We should have finished off the encounter in the singles itself," moaned Bahrain captain Esam Abdulaal.
"I can't explain it, but somehow it looked like our players dropped their level a bit in the singles and that is how we put ourselves under pressure. We are up against Bangladesh next and we need to do much better than this if we are to advance to the next group," he added.
Singapore was seen struggling after their best player Rohan Kamdar could not play his singles due to a suspected viral bug. The young Issac Yong Jie Ong did well to secure a 76(2) 60 win over Mohammad Jamil Bhuiyan.
But the seasoned Roy Alif Hobbs went down in straight sets 57 57 against Sree Amol Roy to set up the decisive doubles that saw Rohan Kamdar drafted with Roy Alif Hobbs to see Singapore through 75 62 for their second win after three days.
"We had no option but field Rohan [Kamdar] in the doubles. It was the most important match for us at that stage and I will take the win whatever the consequences," beamed Singapore captain Hassan Bin Bohari.
"We get an off day on Thursday and that should give us time to recuperate and get ready for our crucial match against Iraq on Friday," he added.

Hordichuk and MacIntyre old friends – still would be some fight
Longer version of notes….
By Harvey Fialkov
Sun Sentinel
EDMONTON Panthers fans will finally get a glimpse of their favorite hockey team Sunday night in their season opener against the Edmonton Oilers, but they also may get to see a heavyweight bout as a bonus.
In the Oilers corner, at 6-foot-5, 250 pounds, Steve MacIntyre, who just last March wore a Panthers jersey while throttling heavyweight Wade Belak, another ex-Panther then with Nashville. According to dropyourgloves.com, MacIntyre has had just 15 NHL bouts in 45 games, but is fresh off a devastating KO of Calgary's Raitis Ivanans in Edmonton's 4-0 victory Thursday night.
In the Panthers' corner, at 6-1, 215, left wing Darcy Hordichuk, who on Saturday participated in his first practice at Rexall Place since Wednesday's trade with Vancover for another enforcer, Andrew Peters. Hordichuk, 30, who played for the Panthers in 60 games in parts of two seasons (2002-04), has had 135 NHL fights but hasn't fought MacIntyre since they were teammates for the Saskatoon Blades of the WHL in the 1998-99 season.
"We played together at Saskatoon and probably fought each other four or five times," said MacIntyre, who played in 18 games for the Panthers and 34 at Rochester last season. "He says I knocked all his teeth out. He has veneers in the front and says I'm the one who did it. … It's been a war. He's a good friend. He can afford the teeth now."
Panthers coach Pete DeBoer wasted no time getting Hordichuk on the ice on the fourth line skating with center Marty Reasoner and former Canucks teammate Steve Bernier.
"He's a physical presence. We got a young team. We haven't had that on a consistent basis in our lineup since I've been here," DeBoer said. "We had the luxury of Big Mac last year up and down but didn't have a guy every night that basically could keep other teams honest. … He can skate, he can forecheck which is how we need to play.''
Hordichuk, a far more accomplished hockey player than MacIntyre, has played in 431 NHL games.
"I was told if I wanted to make the Blades back then I'd have to fight Dallas Anderson, who's [6-6], and Steve MacIntyre,'' smiled Hordichuk. "Me and Mac fought three times in our first game and the coach yelled at us, 'no more fighting.' He definitely chipped these teeth right here. He's the same size now that he was back then.''
All kidding aside, Hordichuk was happy to be back with the Panthers, especially with GM Dale Tallon calling the shots.
"Anytime you can play for an organization that's headed in the right direction, that's a good thing," he said. "We have a lot of good young guys here and some veterans. I think we can be a team that is an underdog that has success this year.''
The only current Panther still around when Hordichuk was here the first time is Stephen Weiss, who admitted that the Panthers have been soft in recent years.
"It's certainly no secret he's a tough guy and be here to stick up for his teammates,'' Weiss said. "He's going to bring a lot of energy on and off the ice.''
Predictions on outcome?

Some thoughts from a kitty's perspective
progress???August 22nd 2013 3:52 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 5 people already have ]
I dunno anymore. I guess I am doing better - I still have sneezing bouts - this morning I must have sneezed 6 -7 times in a row, and both 3rd eyelids still fluctuate - perhaps a bit less than before. I got sick to my tummy 2 times yesterday, momma thinks it may be from the baytril. I get it at dinner time & I still have 5 more days to take it. She didn't give it to me yet today, and she wasn't home to call the vet - so maybe no pill tonite to let my tummy feel better. My ears look ok now, the one was pretty icky looking, but now looks normal. So really no idea what the heck was/is wrong. I get to try the Dr. Elsey's litter when momma goes to get our noms. The Swheat Scoop is not bad, but meh not so good with 4 kitties. I wish TidyCat came unscented - but we cannot find it if it does - they just add MORE smells to it instead. Momma has run out of ideas what else it could be. The hardwood floors get cleaned with Murphy's soap - no harsh chemicals there. All our beds get washed (momma uses All Free & Clear cus she has allergies too) So I guess we are still thinking it was an inner ear infection. I am supposed to go back to the vet when I finish my meds......so I guess I am not worse, but not back to normal either...I will say that the vet office has been calling every few days to check on me, which is nice even though there really is not a huge change. Anyhows I truly thank everyone for the gifties & wishes. Momma is just frustrated is all, and yet there is not much more to do but wait & see.
Leave A Comment | 5 people already have
Well my friend, that is so frustrating for sure to not know exactly why you are still sneezing...to me and Mom it still seems like you might have allergies or asthma, cause I used to sneezed a lot in a row just like you...who knows....
Mom is trying to figure out a different litter too..she has tried the swheat Scoop that verdict is still out on that one, she hates the clay type, she has to scoop so many boxes with taking care of cats all the time for her clients and it just get way to hard on her wrist and hands to scoop that litter...She hasn't tried Dr. Elsey's litter maybe she too should try it...hope it isn't expensive, we have 4 litter boxes for fill....Mom wants litter that clumps...she hates the ones that don't too smellie after cats use it all day.
Well my friend we are continuing our purrs and prayers for you.
It's hard to now know what's wrong. Sending you purrs.
Us orangie guys like to keep 'em guessing!
We're just getting caught up on all this Tig...sorry you've been feeling so bad! I know how you feel going to the vet again, and again, and again... Mom says she'd be hissy too if the vet knocked me out for a body x-ray and didn't look at my head, THEN asked to do it again--not cool. ESPECIALLY when it sounds like something to do with your head. It doesn't sound like me, not the asthma OR allergies, but everyone is different with their allergies I guess. I think you said no foreign object, but they didn't x-ray your head; did you read that article on catster about getting a blade of grass up your nose? Could it be ANYTHING like that up your nosie or in your ear? I can't take Baytril. When mom gave me that once I puked and puked AND PUKED. It took 3 days of anti-nausea meds and a shot to make me stop. I use Dr Elsey's too. Well, we'll be purring for you here, and hope you're on your way to feeling all better right away.
Happy gotcha day! We're sorry you're not feeling well and hope everything gets better soon!

Centra Bank Trustee Scholarship to aid Fayette campus students
8/4/2008 —The Centra Bank Trustee Scholarship has been established at Penn State Fayette, The Eberly Campus to provide financial assistance to undergraduate students enrolled at the campus. The funds for the scholarship came from the result of a successful first year of the bank's presence in Fayette County, according to Douglas J. Leech Jr., founder and CEO of Centra Bank.
Leech attended Penn State Fayette in the 1970s, graduating from the University Park campus in 1977 with a bachelor's degree in business. Centra Bank has four offices in Fayette County, and as a total corporation in 2007 reached $1 billion in assets overall, gaining the bank national recognition.
C. Christopher Cluss, chairman of Centra Bank in Pennsylvania and president of O.C. Cluss Lumber Co., notes that "education is a very important challenge in Fayette County and we want to help. Penn State Fayette in many respects leads the way. It's an important part of our community in educating our youth and adults wanting to advance their careers. You can't speak enough about what education means, and the Fayette campus is a cost-effective and local way to do that."
The Centra Bank Trustee Scholarship will give first preference to Penn State Fayette students who reside in Fayette County, and will be awarded beginning with the fall 2008 semester.
"The ability to obtain a college scholarship is important to many Fayette County residents," explains Fayette campus Chancellor Emmanuel I. Osagie. "In times when family budgets may be tight, a scholarship may be just what's needed to allow an individual to pursue higher education, and our close-to-home location is one reason our students choose our campus to earn their Penn State education. We encourage anyone who is interested in pursuing a college degree to visit us to explore the many options available at Penn State Fayette."
The Trustee Matching Scholarship Program is designed to keep a Penn State education accessible to all qualified students, regardless of their financial means. The program has a unique matching component—the University matches 5 percent of the principal of each gift annually and combines these funds with income from the endowment to effectively double the financial impact of the scholarship. Implemented in 2002 upon approval by Penn State's Board of Trustees, the program assisted approximately 4,400 students University-wide last year.

2004 Yamaha FZ1
Fantastic sport-tour bike...
Except for maintenance items, this bike has been flawless and runs great. I only give it a "9" on most of the specs, as I also have a newer Yamaha R-1!
The FZ1 for sure, is my bike of choice when I go on trips.
Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Holiday, Billie
The polarities of life and art collided with such violence during the forty-four years of singer Billie Holiday's life that they became bonded into one immutable whole. Together they gave force to the Billie Holiday legend, a legend that has grown with increasing definition since her death in 1959. As a result, the image of Billie Holiday-as-all-purpose-victim, part romantic martyr and part heroine of excess, has often obscured her artistry. Yet the essential truth about Billie Holiday is that she was a great artist, not because of her hedonistic and much publicized lifestyle, but in spite of it. She is an icon of twentieth century music who has influenced, both directly and indirectly, vernacular singing as we know it today.
Holiday's place of birth is usually given as Baltimore where a statue has been erected to commemorate her achievements, but research by her biographer Stuart Nicholson established from three separate sources that she was born in Philadelphia at 2.30am on April 7, 1915 to Sarah 'Sadie' Harris. Her birth registration gives her name as 'Elinore' (sic) and her father as Frank DeViese, however, she would go to the grave believing her father was Clarence Holiday, who after military service between 1917-19 became a musician, later playing banjo and guitar with bandleader Fletcher Henderson.
Sadie Harris was a feckless mother, frequently leaving her daughter Eleanora in the care of her half-sister's husband's mother, Martha Miller, for long periods. A lack of parental supervision led to cutting school on such a spectacular scale she was committed to Baltimore's Catholic-run House of Good Shepherd on January 5, 1925 and was paroled after nine months. On December 24, 1926, she experienced the trauma of being raped by a neighbour, Wilbert Rich, and was again committed to the House of Good Shepherd as "a state witness for the prosecution," for nine weeks.
A casual job as a cleaner at a local bordello led to the discovery of jazz, and in particular Louis Armstrong. However, in 1928 Sadie again left her daughter in care to try her luck in Harlem, sending for her in early 1929. Barely a month after Eleanora's fourteenth birthday she was arrested on May 2, 1929, along with her mother and eight other women, for vagrancy, a charge frequently used for those suspected of solicitation. In a life already filled with incident, she was sent to hospital, followed by one hundred days on Blackwell's Island. On release in October 1929, she began singing with saxophonist Kenneth Hollon in small night clubs and it was around this time she changed her name to Billie Holiday.
Working as a waitress in places such as Mexico's on 133rd Street in Harlem, she became known for singing for tips while serving customers. Gradually she made the transition from singing waitress to singer and was spotted by entrepreneur John Hammond in 1932. The following year she made her recording debut with a Benny Goodman pick-up unit that would eventually lead to a record deal with Brunswick as vocalist for a series of sessions under the leadership of pianist Teddy Wilson.
With Wilson she created some of the great classics of jazz during the 1930s including, 'I Wished on the Moon,' ' "What a Little Moonlight Can Do," "I Cried for You," "Summertime," and "This Years Kisses." In 1936 she was given a contract under her own name by Vocalion, but continued to record with Wilson. When they were joined by Lester Young as a sideman, the inspirational 'two-of-the-same-voice' collaborations of Holiday and Young epitomized jazz at its highest level of creativity and represented the pinnacle of her 'Swing Song' period ? "Sun Showers," "I'll Get By," "Me Myself and I," "A Sailboat in the Moonlight," "He's Funny That Way," "When You're Smiling," "Back In Your Own Backyard" and "All of Me."
In March 1937 she joined Count Basie's orchestra for almost a year before becoming a member of Artie Shaw's orchestra in March 1938. She left on November 19, 1938 having made one record with the band called "Any Old Time." Opening at Café Society in Greenwich Village on December 22, 1938 she became and immediate hit with café crowd. Here she met Abel Meeropol (who wrote under the name of Lewis Allen) and began performing his song called "Strange Fruit."
Contemporary reports say her performance of the song was stunning, but Columbia refused to record it because the lyrics depicted a lynching in the South, so it was put out by the independent Commodore Records label and promptly became a minor hit. By now Holiday had become a consummate night club performer, frequently appearing in 52nd Street clubs where she became known as the 'Queen of 52nd Street.'
On August 25, 1941 she married Jimmy Monroe, brother of Clark Monroe of Monroe's Uptown House, but in May 1942, Monroe was arrested on the West Coast for drug smuggling. Holiday travelled to Hollywood and opened at the Trouville Club with Lester Young to pay for Monroe's defence. In the event, Monroe was convicted, but lawyers fees took much of Holiday's money, leading her to record 'Trav'lin Light," an under appreciated Holiday classic, with Paul Whiteman for the return fare to New York. Here she became a mainstay at the Onyx Club on 52nd Street throughout 1943 and 1944, a period when she became addicted to heroin.
In August 1944 she signed with the Decca record label and under the guidance of producer Milt Gabler produced classics like "Lover Man" and "That Old Devil Called Love." Her mother Sadie died October 6, 1945 which was a blow which many say she never recovered from. The same year she appeared in the motion picture New Orleans, but filming was marred by addiction problems. Returning to 52nd Street she was made to confront her addiction by her manager Joe Glaser and a period of rehabilitation in private nursing home followed. However, her pattern of addiction continued unabated, resulting in Glaser betraying her to Federal Bureau of Narcotics.
She was arrested after a week at the Earle Theatre in Philadelphia on May 16, 1947 and despite the flimsy evidence, Glaser refused her legal representation. Holiday was thus sentenced to year and day on May 27, 1947 and sent to the Federal Reformatory for Women, Alderston, Virginia where she remained in custody until March 16 1948. On release she gave two hugely successful concerts at Carnegie Hall but the reality of her situation was that her prison conviction meant she was denied a Cabaret Card, essential for working in New York clubs. Gradually, life began to collapse around her as without prestige of regularly playing New York her asking price began to drift.
Appearing at Billy Berg's West Coast club, a bizarre incident with knife hit papers, and then an arrest for possession of narcotic drugs, although this time she was acquitted. Dropped by Decca in 1950, her life had become a round of club work and a daily struggle to score. In 1952 she began recording for Norman Granz's Clef (later Verve) label creating what many claim are latter day classics – Music for Torching, Body and Soul, Songs for Distingué Lovers. However, she was arrested again while playing in Philadelphia on February 23, 1956 for possession. In summer that year her ghosted autobiography Lady Sings The Blues was published, and a Carnegie Hall concert in November was mounted to re-launch her career – part of the concert was later released on Verve as Lady Sings the Blues.
In 1957 Granz decided not to renew her contract as she had become increasingly difficult to work with, not that you would guess from a December TV appearance on The Sound of Jazz that provided an indelible picture of her at work. In 1958 she recorded Lady in Satin for Columbia, and it was clear the ravages of her lifestyle had caught up with her in what was a moving Parthian shot. On May 30, 1959 she collapsed and was admitted to hospital, where she subsequently died on July 15, 1959. By then she was virtually penniless, relying on handouts from her manager to pay for basics such as rent and food.Contributor: Stuart Nicholson

UCLA this week will continue gearing up for the MPSF season as the No. 4 Bruins take on WWPA foe Loyola Marymount on the road before hosting UC Irvine at the Rose Bowl in its first home contest of the year. Last weekend the Bruins defeated MPSF-opponent Pepperdine, 7-5, in a non-conference matchup in Malibu. In this Saturday's non-conference contest against the Anteaters, UCLA will look to extend its current 14-match home winning streak, dating back to November 8, 2002.
Bruins Ride Waves to Victory
Junior Logan Powell and freshman Krsto Sbutega each scored two goals and junior goalkeeper Will Didinger made nine saves as UCLA upended Pepperdine, 7-5, at Raleigh Runnels Memorial Pool last Sunday. The Bruins took a 4-2 lead into halftime but allowed Pepperdine to tie the match halfway through the third period. Consecutive UCLA goals soon after propelled the Bruins to a 6-4 lead and the defending national champs never looked back.
Lapin and Cidoncha-Simms Join Junior National Team
UCLA water polo freshmen Chay Lapin and Miguel Cidoncha-Simms have been named to the U.S. Junior National team roster and will compete for the United States in the Junior World Championships next month, USA Water Polo announced Sept. 22. Lapin and Cidoncha-Simms, who are expected to redshirt for UCLA this season, will be among 13 players led by Head Coach Doug Peabody at the World Championships near Buenos Aires, Argentina from October 6-15, 2005.
Bruins Atop National Stats
According to the national scoring summary released on Sept. 28, UCLA is second in the nation in team scoring. The Bruins' 122 goals in their first nine matches creates a 13.6 goals per game average, second only behind UCSD's 16.6 ppg.
Game Times Set
UCLA's game on October 1 at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center against UC Irvine has been set for a 3:30 p.m. start. The following Saturday's match (October 8) against California, also at the Rose Bowl, has been scheduled for 1 p.m. Both game times are approximatley three hours prior to the start of the UCLA football game.
Deja Vu All Over Again
In 2004, UCLA entered the SoCal Tournament with a 3-0 record and then went on to sweep Pepperdine and Cal Baptist in the tournament's first day before falling to Stanford (8-7 in OT) and California (10-9 in OT) in day two action. Ironically enough, the 2005 Bruins entered this year's SoCal Tournament with a 4-0 record, swept through the tournament's first day, only to lose to Stanford (10-9 in overtime again) and Cal (8-7 in OT) again. Last year's squad went on to win 18 straight games and eventually a national title after the back-to-back losses at the SoCal Tournament, only time will tell for the 2005 squad.

GlaxoSmithKline wins approval for new HIV drugIN 253 views Leave a comment
Drugs maker GlaxoSmithKline rose after reporting that its new HIV treatment, Tivicay, has received approval in Europe.
The drug is manufactured by ViiV Healthcare, a company in which GSK, Pfizer and Shionogi are shareholders.
Tivicay is for use in combination with other anti-retroviral medicinal products for the treatment of HIV infected adults and adolescents above 12 years of age.
Dr Dominique Limet, the Chief Executive Officer of ViiV Healthcare, said: 'Today's approval of Tivicay is an important advance, opening the door to new treatment combinations for people living with HIV in Europe.
'Tivicay's clinical development programme was only possible through partnerships with the people living with HIV and healthcare professionals who participated in it, and we aim to move forward together with them based on an absolute commitment to the HIV/AIDS global response.'
The drug will become available in each country as pricing and reimbursement processes are completed, with availability in some of the first countries anticipated in the immediate future, the company added.

Esbjörn Svensson Trio: Untitled Hidden Track
Untitled Hidden Track
Esbjörn Svensson Trio
Somewhere Else Before (Sbme Special Mkts.)
Esbjörn Svensson (piano, keyboards, percussion),
Dan Berglund (bass, percussion), Magnus Öström (drums, percussion).
Recorded: Stockholm, Sweden, May-November 1998
Rating: 93/100 (learn more)
Keep the CD going at the end, and you'll hear a hidden track for 4 minutes and 44 seconds of raucous, thrashing metal vamps and a wild solo by Berglund, where he engages his customary guitar pedals. This track demonstrates the "hybrid identity" of e.s.t., as do Svensson's own words in Stuart Nicholson's book Is Jazz Dead (Or Has It Moved To a New Address): "We want to hear stuff that bites us, we try to find that music. It's not a question that the only good music you can find is classical music or jazz, the problem is to find it and hear music and get inspired. I don't know how it works really, the creative filter or whatever, but it's fun."

Cara Mattaliano Earns Second Ivy League Rookie Of The Week Award
Freshman outside hitter Cara Mattaliano helped Princeton end a five-match losing streak with one of her best weekends of the season, and her performance earned her a second Ivy League Rookie of the Week honor this season.
She recorded back-to-back strong efforts as Princeton rolled to a weekend sweep of Columbia and Cornell. Mattaliano had 19 kills in each win, hitting. 390 for the weekend. She averaged 5.43 kills per set for the weekend. She hit .396 against Columbia (48 swings without an error) and added 16 digs. That was followed up with a .382 hitting percentage with 19 kills in three sets against Cornell.
It is Mattaliano's second Rookie of the Week honor.
"Cara has become a consistent offensive threat," head coach Sabrina King said. "She has a whip of an arm, and she swings for a kill every time. We are very happy with the way she performed this past weekend."
Mattaliano and Princeton will head north this weekend for their final two road matches of the season, including a Friday night showdown at second-place Harvard and then a rematch with Dartmouth, which pulled out a 3-2 road win at Princeton earlier this season.
Mattaliano's Weekly Stats
2 MP, 7 SP, 38 kills, 5.43 k/set, .390 hitting pct., 5 aces, 22 digs, 43.0 points

Season Cumulative Stats 10-23-10
Oct. 23, 2010
Final Stats | Photo Gallery 1 | Photo Gallery 2 | Photo Gallery 3
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Nic Grigsby and Keola Antolin ran for two touchdowns apiece, Matt Scott had no trouble replacing Nick Foles and No. 15 Arizona easily handled up-and-down Washington 44-14 Saturday night.
Arizona (6-1, 3-1 Pac-10) overcame occasionally poor tackling with a balanced offense and by harassing Jake Locker into an ineffective game.
Scott held his own after Foles went down with a knee injury last week against Washington State and looked like he was the starter all along against the other Evergreen State school. He threw for 233 yards and two touchdowns, including a fumble-the-snap, 21-yard heave to Juron Criner in the fourth quarter, and added 65 yards on seven carries.
Washington (3-4, 2-2) continued its season-long, win-one, lose-one pattern, following last week's thrilling double-overtime victory over then-No. 24 Oregon State with a defensive clunker.
Locker finished 17 of 29 for 183 yards with a touchdown and lost 24 yards on six carries before being replaced by Keith Price early in the fourth quarter.
Antolin finished with 114 yards on 14 carries and Criner caught eight passes for 108 yards to give Arizona its best start since opening the 1998 season 6-1.
The Wildcats had hoped to be on better footing than last year's game at Washington.
Arizona lost what's now known as the "Shoe" game in Seattle when Mason Foster returned an interception 37 yards for the go-ahead touchdown after the ball caromed off the size 14 1/2 cleat of Arizona's Delashaun Dean. The Wildcats disputed the call - Dean said it hit the ground - but were kicking themselves more for being in position to cough up a 12-point lead in the final four minutes.
Arizona made sure it didn't get tripped up by a close call this time by steamrolling Washington's noodle-strainer defense - 199 points the past five games - for 467 total yards.
The only question mark came early; Taimi Tutogi fumbled on Arizona's opening drive and Locker marched the Huskies for a quick score, rolling left and throwing across his body for a drop-it-in-there 26-yard touchdown to Jermaine Kearse in the corner of the endzone.
After that, all Arizona almost all the time.
Led by Scott, the Wildcats carved up Washington's 98th-ranked defense, piling up 356 total yards on their way to a 30-14 halftime lead.
Scott looked a lot like Locker on Arizona's first score, rolling left and throwing across his body for a 17-yard touchdown to David Roberts. He then led the Wildcats to a 29-yard field goal by Alex Zendejas and set up Antolin's first TD, a 1-yard dive left, with a 32-yard rumble on an option.
Locker tried to rally the Huskies by setting up Chris Polk's 7-yard touchdown run, but the defense parted on the next play, allowing Antolin to burst up the middle for a 78-yard touchdown.
The Wildcats still weren't done.
Quick Takes: Players Post-Game
Grigsby capped the first half with a 4-yard touchdown run and opened the second with another after Ricky Elmore stripped Locker and the Wildcats recovered.
Scott added a put-it-out-of-reach scoring pass early in the fourth quarter, dropping the snap out of the shotgun and firing a TD strike to Criner just before being laid out on a roughing the passer call.
The starter over Foles the first three games of 2009, Scott finished an efficient 18 of 22 and gave Arizona a confidence boost if Foles isn't ready to play next week at UCLA.
Arizona Head Coach Mike Stoops' Post-Game:
"This certainly was a good overall team win for us. We had a great week of preparation. We challenged the offensive line to be more physical, to protect the quarterback better. Everyone really responded positively this week. They knew they wanted to do a better job this week, and we were a lot more diversified. Matt Scott did an outstanding job, going 18-for-22. We've had a ridiculous throwing percentage for this time of the season. I give a lot of credit to him, our offensive line, and the coaching staff. They all did very well in getting prepared for this game tonight. I'm pleased to see that Matt responded well on the field, even with the loss of his position."
"The defensive had a very hard week of preparation. Locker and Washington run some very unorthodox plays, and we positioned ourselves well on the defense. It's very lethal to have a group that rushes the quarterback, and we were able to get through and make it uncomfortable for Washington to run the plays that they wanted to run."
"Matt was not very skittish going into tonight. He was ready, focused, and well prepared for the game. I'm sure he was a little antsy come kickoff, but it did not show. We got off to a good start tonight, and that's very important."
"Giving Matt this experience keeps our options open. Nick (Foles) is close, but he's not quite ready yet. Having them both get quality game experience gives us another dimension that we really need. I told Matt to be yourself, and to use your instincts, and he did exactly that for us tonight."
"Nick did dress, and he did want to warm up, but he was not going to be an option for us."
"Having the quarterback run is important for our numbers, and it's a great threat to have someone like Matt with that ability."
"We challenged the receivers better, and the (pass) rush was a big plus for us. We pressured more on third down, and we did miss some coverage early, but our rush was a lot more effective tonight. We played better on offense tonight, and we were a lot more balanced, which is encouraging. For defense, when you play six or seven games, you start developing a characteristic. As we move to the later part of the season, it's going to come down to some critical defensive stops, like it did tonight.

A Brief History of the Town of South Hero

The founding of the town of
South Hero Inn. Unknown dates. Postcard images courtesy of University of Vermont Special Collections.
The rapid population growth necessitated a town government, and at the first town meeting held on March 28, 1786, town officers were elected. The first tax was in place one year later, and Col. Ebenezer Allen was appointed town treasurer on March 11, 1788. [2] In 1790, the second town meeting was held, wherein officials were reelected and taxes were raised to three and four shillings per bushel, on wheat and corn respectively. [3] The increase in tax revenue allowed the townspeople to support a new schoolhouse, fund the transport of goods to other areas, and create roads.
The first settlers of South Hero took advantage of the fertile soil with subsistence farming, growing fruit, tending gardens, maple sugaring, dairying and spinning and weaving fabric from domestic materials. As the town grew, the main source of income for residents came from farming, dairying and fruit growing, as the fertile land generated abundant crops, which were good for community development.
Apple growing in particular became a viable part of the South Hero economy. Wheat was another vital crop for farmers; it was so precious that it was used for money by the earliest settlers of the island. By the late 18th century, production on the island began an industrial incline. The lumbering of forests for oak produced much needed revenue and cleared land for farming.
Large fallen trees were ideal for crafting masts for ships, and they were usually shipped and sold in

Recent evidence suggests a close functional relationship between osteogenesis and angiogenesis as well as between bone remodeling and bone vascularization. Consequently, there is a need for visual inspection and quantitative analysis of the bone vasculature. We therefore adapted and implemented two different vascular corrosion casting (VCC) protocols using a polyurethane-based casting resin in mice for a true three-dimensional (3D), direct, and simultaneous measurement of bone tissue and vascular morphology by micro-computed tomography (microCT). For assessment of vascular replicas at the level of capillaries, a vascular contrast perfusion (VCP) protocol was devised using a contrast modality based on a barium sulfate suspension in conjunction with synchrotron radiation (SR) microCT. The vascular morphology quantified using the VCP protocol was compared quantitatively with the results of a previously established method, where the vascular network of cortical bone was derived indirectly from cortical porosity. The presented VCC and VCP protocols have the potential of serving as a valuable method for concomitant 3D quantitative morphometry of the bone tissue and its vasculature.

Wonderful evening. The string quartet were amazing. The only problem which made us late was that google maps misdirected us so we missed the first piece of the show. It would be great if we had a number to call in case we got lost and directions added to the tickets. Thank you!

The concert was wonderful but goldstar should have put that it was located in the Shepherd School of Music at Entrance 8 in the Rice University campus. The entrance was not on Main St. It was difficult to find and I had to ask someone for help...continued

"Pulse," the New World Symphony's exciting music/nightclub event returns this month to 'white out' South Beach for the first time.
"Pulse: White Out the New World Symphony" will take place on Friday, Feb. 21, enveloping the audience in a music event that blends contemporary classical music with DJ-spun electronica and wraps up with the audience joining in for a giant dance party.
This twice-annual high-energy event is one of South Beach's most eagerly awaited cultural events. There will be an unusual twist this year as audience members are invited to deck themselves in all-white garb to "white out" the spectacular New World Center concert hall.
The evening will feature popular DJ Laura of Miami, who is joining forces for the New World Symphony for the event. She is Music Director + Programming Director for the internet radio startup Klangbox.fm., where she hosts the popular "Vamas a La Playa." She also has performed at Ultra Music Festival and nearly every club in town.
In addition, the music-packed evening will also feature "Pulse Unplugged," a 15-minute set of orchestral music set in the style of MTV's "Unplugged" series. For this "concert with a concert," a group of New World Symphony Fellows performs a piece without amplification in an intimate setting within the concert hall.
The setting of Pulse is unique. Instead of the traditional concert hall setting, where an audience sits and listens to the orchestra up front, the entire venue is transformed. Some of the musicians will be located on stage lifts, while other portions of the main stage are lowered to the floor, allowing audience members to walk among the performers throughout the evening. The hall's seating will be retracted, so there is room for dancing, socializing and cocktails.
Pulse: Late Night at the New World Symphony has been featured in media outlets including the Miami Herald and the Wall Street Journal and is on the cover of the current issue of "Symphony" magazine, where it is celebrated for its success in attracting new audiences to classical music.
Ticket prices start at $25 and are available at the New World Symphony Box office by calling (305) 673-3331 or can be ordered online.

The renowned historian of Islam and the Middle East writes on p. 73 of The Political Language of Islam:
"...it is the duty of those who have accepted them [Allah's word and message] to strive unceasingly to convert or at least to subjugate those who have not. This obligation is without limit of time or space. It must continue until the whole world has either accepted the Islamic faith or submitted to the power of the Islamic state."
To help people assess Islam, this site presents core Islamic texts. So readers can verify that we are correctly presenting these, each text includes reference links. The links lead in some cases to passages in a Qur'an-and-Hadith database at a university, in other cases to the earliest Muslim biography of Muhammad. When citing the Hadith, we cite only the canonical collections, whose reports most Muslim scholars of Islam deem authentic.
Bernard Lewis says Islam imposes, without limit of time or space, the duty to subjugate non-Muslims
