Former San Francisco State wrestling standout Isaiah Jimenez, a volunteer coach at his alma mater last season, has been elevated to top assistant, the Gators announced Tuesday.
Jimenez will serve as assistant to Lars Jensen, who has been SFSU's head wrestling coach for 32 years. The new assistant, a 2013 SF State graduate, wrestled for Jensen for four seasons.
As a Gator, Jimenez was a three-time NCAA Division II Wrestling Championships qualifier. In his senior year, he earned All-American honors by placing fifth at 165 pounds at the 2013 NCAAs. Jimenez, along with 141-pound champ Naveed Bagheri, helped propel the Gators to tenth place in the team standings at the D2 NCAAs that year – the program's highest finish in ten years.
During the 2011-12 season, Jimenez was named the SF State Gator Male Student-Athlete of the Year while capturing the individual title at 165 at the NCAA Division II Super Regional IV/Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Championships. He also earned All-RMAC First Team honors.
Completing his college mat career with an 86-65 overall record, Jimenez finished eighth overall on the Gator all-time wins list. In addition, he currently ranks sixth all-time in takedowns and eighth in points scored.
Prior to coming to San Francisco State, Jimenez was a four-time letter winner at Palma High School in Salinas, Calif. He was a three-time Tri-Country Athletic League Champion and was named the team's Most Valuable Wrestler on three occasions.
"We are very excited to promote Isaiah to the top assistant wrestling coach position for the upcoming season," said Gator head wrestling coach Jensen. "Isaiah had a stellar career with us and we look for him to help us continue our winning tradition and have positive influence on our student-athletes."
"I am very happy to be named to the top assistant for my alma mater after serving a year as a volunteer coach," said Jimenez. "To be able to continue to work with a great coach like Coach Jensen is very exciting. I am looking forward to the upcoming season and eager to work with our 2014-15 team."

Stomach symptoms start 12 hours after dairy
|Watch this
|View More Posts Ignore
I've been having stomach problems the past 2 weeks and had suspected a newly developed lactose intolerance, but find that my symptoms appear 12 hours after eating dairy. Is this possible?
Also, I spent the past few years living in Asia where they only sold UHT milk and I had a very low-dairy diet.
Then I spent 3 weeks in France where after a bout of the flu I was given antibiotics which really upset my stomach for the 5 days I was on them, but those symptoms disappeared when I went off them.
Then I returned to the US where I've been having stomach problems pretty much since I arrived, occurring about every other day for the past 2 weeks. I tried cutting out diary for 3 days and seemed fine, then I had pizza last night and woke in the morning with stomach cramps and gas and bloating again.
Is it possible that LI symptoms can be so delayed? If not, I guess there are a million other things it could be with all of my recent moving around.

Yes I notice especially pizza can do that to me. However, you might have other stuff going on maybe you should check it out?

Yes you can get a delayed response to intolerances for sure. Sometimes I think the lactose isn't affecting me then wham, 12-24 hours later it does. I also get massive bloating with it. Try staying dairy free for a week and if your symptoms disappear then I'd say that is what is causing it. I am definitely dairy intolerant, aswell as lactose.
Hope this helps abit

I was just about to post a question of the same nature. I haven't been to the doctor as yet, but I am possibly going to go next week. Problem is, I don't have health insurance here, but I do in Australia. And tests are going to cost a lot. Anyway, I have always loved milk, I used to drink it like water... probably way too much of it, especially in summer. I don't know if it is possible to create a problem like lactose intolerance by drinking too much dairy???? On average I would drink a gallon of milk a day during summer and around half a gallon during winter. If I don't drink milk, I crave it. A few months ago I started to get bloated, cramps and severe pain and indigestion which I had never experienced before. I had a hysterectomy a few months before these symptoms and I assumed that it was just my stomach being still tender. I was starting to get rather concerned and the pain was almost unbearable at times. Then I went and visited friends for a week and didn't drink any milk at all and I was fine the whole time. I didnt' pay to much heed because the symptoms had been coming and going. When I arrived back home, I was craving dairy and had 3 glasses of milk. Within a few hours I was in pain again and my stomach was bloated to the point that it was sore to touch. It was then that I realised that milk may be the thing that is causing these symptoms. I avoided milk for 10 days and didn't get any pain or discomfort. I was craving milk so bad the other night that I had just one very small glass (also using this as an experiment to see if I would get the symptoms back). You guessed, within 6 or 7 hours I was in severe pain, swollen abdomin etc. I researched Lactose intolerance on the internet and it says mostly that you get symptoms within 2 hours after drinking milk, however my symptoms don't present until at least 6 hours and sometimes not until the next day. I will go to the doctor and have it checked, but I am fairly certain that it is milk related in my case.

Try rice milk instead, its yummy and has no dairy/lactose, I am having this now instead of milk.

Yeah, the intolerance came and went for a while for me before it finally came and didn't leave :( It seems that some things are higher in lactose than others. Cheese doesn't bother me immediately, but milk or ice cream or yogurt will. I can tolerate small amounts of cheese without a problem and cream in my coffee isn't an issue either. They say that most people slowly stop producing the enzymes to digest lactose as they age. So it can come on slowly.
Have you tried using lactase pills? That was how I finally figured out it was lactose; after two weeks of pain I bought a box and took one and within an hour I felt so much better.

The Obama's Administration's mandate requiring the Catholic Church to conform to government dictates on contraception and abortifacent drugs is more than a war on the Catholic Church argue Jennifer Roback Morse and Eric Metaxas. It's a war on freedom.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has mandated that social service providers, including those run by Christian institutions and the Catholic Church, pay for abortion inducing drugs, contraceptives, and sterilizations through their health insurance plans, even if this violates their religious beliefs.
Eric Metaxas and Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse articulate the grave dangers of the Health & Human Services (HHS) Mandate with regard to religious freedom in America. [Read more…]

Sophomore Jackie Wegner (pictures) and freshman Tea Juric open play in the AVCA College Sand Volleyball National Championship on Friday in Gulf Shores, Ala.
May 1, 2014
NEW ORLEANS - The Green Wave tandem of sophomore Jackie Wegner and freshman Tea Juric will take to the dunes for a chance at a national title as the Tulane University duo open play in the 2014 AVCA College Sand Volleyball National Championship on Friday in Gulf Shores, Ala.
Juric and Wegner, the first Tulane team to be invited to the postseason since sand volleyball was announced as an emerging sport three years ago, were one of 10 doubles teams identified as "The Best of the Rest" from programs not included in the team portion of the championship tournament. The three-day event will conclude on Sunday, May 4.
"It's a tremendous honor for our players to be considered among some of the best pairs in the country and an excellent opportunity to compete against the best," first-year Tulane head coach Wayne Holly said. "We identified in the preseason a goal to have Tulane University represented at this tournament and we have accomplished that. We're looking forward to competing against some of the best. That's why we train so hard all season long."
Juric and Wegner head to the AVCA Championship have posted a combined 18-12 overall record, including an 8-7 mark in dual-match play as Tulane's top tandem. The duo helped the Green Wave complete the regular season 8-7, wrapping up the programs third varsity campaign with consecutive 3-2 wins over ULM and UAB last Sunday in Birmingham, Ala.
In pairs play, Juric and Wegner sport a 10-5 mark, most recently going 2-2 at the Fiesta at Siesta Key from April 12-13 in Siesta Key, Fla. The duo also posted a 3-2 mark in pairs play during the Tulane Pelican Classic on April 5 at Coconut Beach in Kenner, La., and won the Upper Division Pairs Bracket at the Stetson Spring Break Tournament on March 8.
"Jackie and Tea have come a long way in their development this season and would not be in the position they are without a commitment to making changes and without their teammates competing against them every day in practice," Holly said. "This really is a team accomplishment."
Juric and Wegner were named to Pool B of the Best of the Rest, joining North Florida's Dagnija Medina and Kim Hildreth, Grand Canyon's Kenzie Phelps and Kelli Dallmann, Long Beach State's Tyler Jackson and Janisa Johnson, and Saint Mary's Jordan Shaw and Samantha Tinsley. In Pool A will be Long Beach State's Delainey Aigner-Swesey and Bojana Tordorovic, ULM's Zuzana Markova and Marcela Araya, Jacksonville's Taylor Nyquist and Sammie Strausbaugh, Loyola Marymount's Betsi Metter and Litara Keil along with UAB's Kiriana Hirini and Bethanie Thomas.
The Pairs Championship will begin with the Best of the Rest duos engaged in pool play on May 2-3 and the top two finishers will be seeded into May 4's 16-team, single-elimination bracket. While the Best of the Rest are doing battle, the team title will be up for grabs at the same time as Florida International, Florida State, Hawai'i, Pepperdine, Southern Cal and Stetson will square off for the national championship.
The six top pairs from the team championship and the top two from the four semifinalists will be entered into the Pairs Championship bracket, and a play-in contest will be held for the final two positions. First-round matches for the Pairs Championship will start at 8 a.m. (CDT) with semifinals slated for noon and the championship scheduled for 2 p.m. The AVCA College Sand Volleyball National Championship will be covered by CBS Sports Network with two-hour specials airing on May 26 at 6 p.m., May 30 at 6:30 p.m. and June 2 and 6 p.m.

Gateshead sign defender Magnay
Gateshead have today clinched the signing of 23-year-old central defender Carl Magnay on a contract until the end of the season.
Gateshead-born Magnay has spent the last four years at Premier League giants Chelsea where he was a regular in the Blues reserve side.
During his time at Stamford Bridge the Northern Ireland U.21 international spent loan spells at Milton Keynes Dons and Northampton Town.
Magnay's one international cap came against Portugal in August 2009.
On his release from Chelsea Magnay returned to his Tyneside roots and has impressed during a two game trial at hometown club Gateshead.
The cultured defender played in the reserves Durham Challenge Cup win at Norton & Stockton Ancients and Wednesday's defeat at home to Hartlepool United.
"Magnay has looked good in training and he has done well in the two reserve games he has played," said Gateshead manager Ian Bogie.
"He is comfortable on the ball and is an accomplished defender who has learnt his trade at one of the top clubs in the country.
"We needed to bring in a central defender following the release of Ewan Moyes and Magnay fits the bill.
"He is a Gateshead lad who will be keen to impress. He had his injury problems during his time at Chelsea but is a player with a good pedigree.
"After bringing in Liam Hatch and Jamie Chandler from Darlington in the transfer window Magnay is another good addition to the squad."
Gateshead remain in the hunt for a play-off spot in the Blue Square Bet Premier and are in the last 16 of the Trophy.
"We are fighting to reach Wembley on two fronts," added Bogie "we have strengthened the squad this month and there is still everything to play for."

This Wikipedia page says that the sequence of random variables $X_n$ that assume $1$ with probability $1/n$ and assume $0$ with probability $1 - 1/n$ converges to $0$ in probability but not almost surely. I can't understand why it does not converge to $0$ almost surely. $$ P(\lim_{n\to\infty}X_n = 0) = \lim_{n\to\infty}(1-1/n)=1.$$ What is wrong with the above equations? To be more concrete, with uniform probability on $[0,1]$, define $X_n(x)=1$ when $0\leqslant x \leqslant 1/n$ and $X_n(x)=0$ when $1/n < x \leqslant 1$. Then $(\lim_{n\to\infty}X_n)(0)=1$ and $(\lim_{n\to\infty}X_n)(x)=0$ for $0<x\leqslant 1$. So, $P\{x:(\lim_{n\to\infty}X_n)(x)=0\} = 1$ and $X_n$ converges to 0 almost surely.

While Colorado remains among the top 10 healthiest states, our rates of health issues continue to increase along with the rest of our nation. Large corporations have learned that the workplace presents and opportunity for promoting worker wellbeing, but most small businesses lag behind. Small businesses often neglect the rudiments of worksite safety, as well.
Since more than half of our workforce is employed by small businesses, they become the best target for helping improve the health of Coloradan and their families.
On July 23, 2013, we will launch Health Links ColoradoTM, an academic initiative of the Center for Worker Health and Environment, designed to help improve the health of employees of small businesses and their families and to promote economic growth to help Colorado become the healthiest state.
The goal of Health Links ColoradoTM is to partner with small businesses (<250 employees) to recognize their achievements in health and safety and assist them in improving or developing their programs. Participating businesses can apply to become certified as Healthy Businesses, get kick-start assistance and funding, and be linked to resources and community partners.
Launch: The roll of of this statewide initiative starts at the Pueblo Convention Center, 320 Central Main Street, 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m., July 23, 2013. We will be joined by community leaders from the public health and business community for the kick off event.
For information about the launch event, please contact Michelle Haan at firstname.lastname@example.com or 303-724-7814
Through the summer and fall, I will be updating you on the progress of Health Links ColoradoTM as our team takes steps to partner with Pueblo and other communities around the state.

The National Wildlife Refuge System would get a slight funding increase under the Obama Administration's FY 15 budget. The administration proposes $476.4 million, an increase of just $4.2 million. But the Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) is planning to work with partners to help conserve fish and wildlife in their natural habits, testified FWS Director Dan Ashe.
Ashe was explaining the administration's proposed budget before the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior, Environment & Related Agencies. "By working with partners, we can leverage available resources to benefit wildlife and keep working families on the land they've stewarded for generations," Ashe told the subcommittee. FWS is already working with such partners in the newest addition to the system, he said.
The budget includes $168.8 million for land acquisition. This includes $55 million in funds already allocated and a proposed new $113.8 million. FWS wants to earmark money specifically to buy desert land in California and tallgrass prairie in the Dakotas, plus Florida/Georgia Longleaf pine and to add to the Rappahanock, Silvio Conte and Bear River National Wildlife Refuges.

Released: Jul 01st, 2006
Running Time: 55
Director: Vince Benedetti
Company: Gotham Gold
Cast: Lady G, Sir B, Joe College, Anjelica
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Specialty
After lying to her uncle about getting gang banged by black guys, Anjelica is dragged into the dungeon for a little spanking. Along with the spanking, Anjelica has her insides explored, thanks to a turn of the century gynecological exam. Upon entering her house, Lady G is confronted by her man about her flirtatious behavior while at a bar and is unceremoniously spanked for the next 30 or so minutes.
While the first scene does veer off the spanking trail with its gyno exam, the second is nothing but spanking. Anjelica and Lady G both sport some extra jelly in their buns, which makes for some extra sweet quaking that quickly reddens with glows of ouchness. The audio is either way low or way too high, no in between. The acting and dialog is unintentionally funny, and you have to love that cut off shirt, Joe. The 60-minute bonus feature, The Best of Toe Tales 2, also directed by Benedetti, consists of several sex scenes revolving around foot fetishes.

Posted on Jul 16 , 2013 by Sharon, shelter outreach coordinator Print Home > Blog > Fun photos > Fun photos and unusual pets – brought to you by Petfinder members! Tags: adoption, unusual pets Many people come to Petfinder every day to find the perfect dog or cat for their family. But what about coming here for the perfect hamster, turtle, frog or even cow? Timberlake the frog is looking for a forever home in the Rockville, MD area. He is available through the Montgomery County Humane Society. People are usually surprised when I inform them that they can search for animals such as hermit crabs and even goldfish on Petfinder. Our members don't discriminate – if it needs a home, they are willing to stand up and help! Midgard Serpents Reptile Rescue in Cameron, NC did just that when Kitty the Catfish needed a new home, and a safe place to stay in the meantime. Do you have a pond or very large tank with space to adopt this Channel Catfish? Kitty the Catfish is looking for a permanent home! Some of the pets aren't that surprising to find, such a adoptable rabbits. But that doesn't mean the pictures have to be boring! There are almost 5,000 adoptable rabbits available for adoption on Petfinder as I write this. Sometimes an interesting picture is what it takes to make that one stick out from the others. As you can see in the photos below, Red Door Animal Shelter did a great job of making Kringle stick out from the others, as did K&R Small Animal Sanctuary with their adoptable bunny Colada. Kringle the bunny is currently available for adoption from the Red Door Animal Shelter. Colada the bunny is currently available for adoption, and looks great with this striking blue background! Right now, there are 1,165 guinea pigs looking for homes on Petfinder. The Animal Welfare League of Arlington has taken an adorable picture to make Maxie stick out among the others! Having these cute ADOPT blocks helps Maxie stick out a little bit more among the many other adoptable Guinea Pigs. Looking for something a little more unusual? Check out Skunk Haven's adoptable pet list. Or, if you're looking for something a little less, er, fluffy – you can visit The Hedgehog Welfare Society's site. You can find so many different pets by searching Petfinder. If you aren't quite sure what you are looking for, you can click on one of the sections in this link for a list of all options currently available on Petfinder.

"Hot Mahajanga !" Mahajanga by Norali
Mahajanga Travel Guide: 24 reviews and 68 photos
I don't even say that my page is under construction, knowing that I would not have time to build a decent page...
Here: the multicentennial baobab tree, the emblem of the city.
More than ever, the city is the one that really needs this type of transportation.
Weather is so hot that people avoid walking in the afternoon.
This is then the most common transportation means in the warmest region of Madagascar.
The West coast is the home of the Sakalava & Antalaotra clans as Antananarivo province is the home of the Merina people. Antalaotra people are "people from the laout": "laout", in Malayomealnesian language meaning "sea". Antalaotra people were the Muslim foreigners that used to settle in the area either for good either for the sake of their trading businesses: spice, slave, other commodities trading. Eventually, those persons got children with Sakalava women and from there came the still existing clan of Antalaotra. They lived apart from the Sakalava, in their own quartier (the nowadays "Quartier G�n�ral" of Mahajanga).
However, Sakalava people have influences from Arabs, Persians since the latter already inhabited the area in 11th and 12th centuries. Hence the relatively high pecentage of Muslim Malagasy in this part of the country (less than 5% of Madagascar population is Muslim). To the Arabs and Persians, there are the Indo-Pakistanese who were brought there by the French and who are still considered as immigrants. Both Muslim Arabs and Indo-Pakistanese have left some patterns on the architecture of the buildings. It is common to see women with either sari either the Muslim attire for women.
The history of this area is fascinating (at least for me) as it being part of the Spice Track that liaised parts of Africa (Zanzibar is not that far), Arabian coasts and SE Asia. Not so simple as I tended to sum up, with its share of intricacies.. I would tell more in the future as soon as I finish the first English-written book I'm reading on the histories of clans, areas, pirates of Madagascar.
Apart from those foreigners, Mahajanga use to welcome Merina people and people from further South who went there decades ago to earn their living. Then, there are the French and Greeks. Much fewer Chinese families than in, say, Tana or Toamasina.
Besides, whilst Chinese immigrants are the biggest minority group in Toamasina, Indo-Pakistanese make up the bulk of immigrants in Mahajanga, mostly active in commerce (so were the Antalaotra people whose settlement could be traced back to the 10th century).
Mahajanga is probably the most cosmopolitan area of Madagascar.
Bathing in urban area is impossible though Amborovy beach, my fave, is superb. It serves as holiday home for rich families in Mahajanga, and even in Madagascar since they have their "secondes r�sidences" there...
As for those who go to Amborovy to enjoy the beach (like I did), those are the average tourists that stay in hotels or at families'.
- Pros:The view on the bay from Jardin Damour ;-) Amborovy beach, nightlife
- Cons:Heat, May soon become too crowded with holidaymakers
- In a nutshell:Perfect for those who seek for heat, nightlife in those crowded dives
Reviews (12)

|C4 Corvette Chassis
|1957 Corvette RestoMod Project
Ever tackle a project that you knew was over your head? Me
too. These pages are a pictorial and descriptive history of my
Ten years in the making, this project will show beginners the
right and wrong ways to restore and customize your dream
car project (or at least my dream car project!). You will see
the do's and don'ts that I experienced without scraping a
Here's the best part - I'm a novice at vehicle restoration.
NOW! Available for purchase are the first completed
chapters of my book on this project. Written for the less
experienced (like me), it goes in to great detail with loads of
photos. Click on E-chapter Descriptions for more info.
|In 1997 I bought my first Corvette - a 1957 roadster. It was what is sometimes called a
20/20 car. It looks good going 20 miles per hour at 20 feet away. I drove it around a little
while, but it had a nasty habit of running too hot. I took it to Phoenix International Raceway
for a Corvette club function that allowed us Corvette owners to drive the road course. I had to
stop less than halfway through due to overheating problems - that sucked.
My wife and I would drive it to get ice cream. The car always brought a lot of attention from
other ice cream lovers. One Christmas day, I gave rides to all my relatives around our
neighborhood. Each one had a big smile on their face the entire ride. Then one day, backing
it out of the driveway, the brakes ceased to work. There was a leak in the master cylinder and
all the brake fluid had run out. So I decided that was a good time to take it apart and start the
restoration. Little did I know...
For those who do not know, a roadster is a convertible. Chevy did not include a hardtop,
but it was available as an option for purchase. If you bought the hardtop, you needed at least
two strong people to lift it and set it into place on the car. It was then bolted to the body and
voila - a Corvette hardtop.
Anyway, back to my baby. The car had been worked on before I bought it, but it was far from a
top-level restoration. I decided to restore the 'Vette to showroom standards. But, the more I
took it apart the less original parts I found. So to bring this car icon back to original condition
would be extremely expensive, and I changed my plans. I had been reading and hearing other
owners say that before you begin any restoration, you first need to decide on what you want
the car to be. Sounds easy enough, but there's more to it than first meets the eye.
I wanted to drive the car. No overheating, no braking problems, just a reliable and beautiful
Corvette to drive. I wanted my wife and me to take it out on the open roads of Arizona, up in
the mountains and away from the stifling heat of Phoenix in the summer. I didn't want a "trailer
queen". That's what restored classic cars are called when they are rebuilt to exact show-room
standards and trailered to car shows and competitions. Only to maybe get a trophy and some
kind of bragging rights. Sorry, that's not my style. I want to be the guy in the Corvette blowing
by the trailered cars with the top down and my hair on fire (or what's left of my hair).
In 2000 I changed the rebuild of my dream car to a restomod. This term is used in the car
hobby to mean a car that looks stock but has late-model mechanical components. First, I
bought a 1999 Corvette LS1 engine. Next was a 1995 Corvette rear axle assembly.
Finally, in late 2008 I purchased a 1996 Corvette Grand Sport front suspension and
steering assembly. These late-model components would be mated to a re-engineered 1956
Corvette frame to form the foundation of the car. The frame re-engineering was not my doing
- no, no, way too advanced for me. I drove the frame to Newman Car Creations in
Templeton, California. Paul and his wife Michelle have been doing this kind of quality upgrade
since 1990. And as of January 19th, 2009, my frame was finished by Newman's. I'll drive up
there in early February and pick it up.
By the way, if you think you can do what Newman does, think again. Years of experience in
engineering the angles, dimensions and geometry of frames is why Paul is the best.
Without his knowledge, you or I should not even attempt this type of work. It's well worth the
price to let the expert handle it. And the price is not expensive considering what you get in
As of February 2009, the build part of the project is just beginning. The actual beginning of this
project started about ten years ago. Read on and check out the pictures as I traverse this
slippery slope.
|Here's my Corvette before disassembly started. I am trying to clean the rear
axle - very greasy!
I dismantled the car the next year to start the restoration.
|Pictured at right is the dash and interior after
disassembly began. The windshield is gone as
are the instruments, radio and speaker. The
steering wheel was original and has been sold
Also notice that I have removed the fiberglass
tunnel to expose the aftermarket Powerglide
transmission. Powerglide was a two speed
automatic Chevy used on many 1950's era
vehicles. Somehow it just doesn't seem right in
a Corvette.
A very good book on how to disassemble C1
and C2 Corvettes was written by Noland Adams
and Bill King. Adams is something of a legend
in restoration circles for the C1.
|The Body Lift Workbook and Video by Noland Adams is the bible for not only how to lift the Corvette's
fiberglass body off its frame, but also how to build a body dolly, vendor lists, a chassis checklist to make
sure all mechanicals are detached from the body, and a DVD that shows it all. Corvette Central sells this
book and DVD package for around $40. Trust me, it is money well spent. I found the "Pre-Body Lift Checklist"
especially valuable because it gives you a comprehensive list of all the things that need to be removed or
disconnected before the body can be safely lifted off the frame. The plans on how to build a body dolly out
of lumber are extremely well presented with tools and hardware specifics.
Another Adams book, The Complete Corvette Restoration & Technical Guide - Vol. 1 is known as the de facto
standard for any restorer of early Corvettes - this book you must have!
The organization that has more documentation on Corvettes than anyone is the National Corvette Restorers
Society (NCRS). Dedicated to the preservation and restoration of all Corvettes up to 1982, membership in
this organization is well worth the $35/year dues.

HIV drugs have long been used to prevent new infections in HIV-negative individuals.
Like what you're reading? Then LIKE us on Facebook!
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is one strategy that involves the use of HIV drugs to prevent infection AFTER the person is exposed to the virus. In this case, the HIV medicines must be administered very soon after the exposure. Post-exposure prophylaxis was first developed to protect hospital and clinic workers from becoming infected after accidental needle-sticks with HIV-infected blood or from blood of a person whose HIV status was unknown.
In cases of rape, HIV meds may be used to protect the victim when the HIV status of the rapist is not known. Again, these meds must be taken very soon after the incident. In resource-poor countries that can't afford to provide full HIV-treatment for pregnant women, HIV medicines are provided to the mother at the time of delivery to reduce the risk of infecting the new infant. This practice has dramatically reduced mother-to-child transmission of HIV.
Most recently, some very strategic studies have shown us that when an HIV-infected individual is faithfully taking their medicine, and their HIV in under control (undetectable levels of virus in the blood), their HIV-negative partner almost never gets infected – even without using male or female condoms.
Now, we're talking about using drugs in HIV-negative people BEFORE they are exposed to HIV through unprotected sex with an infected person. This is called pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). By this method, a person who is HIV-negative is taking medicines on a daily basis so that if they have sex with an infected person, the medicines are already in their tissues and can block HIV from infecting them.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis has been tested in many countries. In the US, the FDA-approved two potent HIV medicines combined in a single pill based on its ability to protect people at high risk for infection from being infected. The medicines Tenofovir (te-NO-FO-vir) and Emtricitibine (em-try-SY-toe-bean) are combined into a single pill product called Truvada (True-VA-da).
For HIV treatment, tenofovir and emtricibine must be combined with a third potent drug from a different class for maximal HIV suppression, yet taking this two-drug combo is effective for prevention. One study used pre-exposure prophylaxis in a group of HIV-negative MSM's (men-who have sex-with men) who were having high rates of unprotected sex.
In this study those who were randomized to take the medicines had significantly lower rates of HIV infections than those not randomized to get the medicines. Another study looked at the use of PrEP in heterosexual couples where one partner was positive and the other partner negative. The negative partner gained significant protection from infection by taking pre-exposure prophylaxis.
As I stated above, the use of HIV medicines for treatment in the infected partner in a discordant couple (one partner is HIV+ and the other is HIV-) can protect the uninfected partner. However, the infected partner may not always take their medicines properly. Besides, there are other problems that can reduce the effect of the meds on transmitting the virus (such as having another STD). So by using PrEP, the negative partner has control over the situation by being able to protect themselves.
One of the biggest challenges in HIV management is getting patients to consistently take their medicine as prescribed. This remains the major reason why treatment regimens "fail" and HIV disease progresses.

AMES LABORATORY'S MIDWEST FORENSICS RESOURCE CENTER RECEIVES FLC PARTNERSHIP AWARD
Federal Laboratory Consortium recognizes MFRC's technology transfer success
AMES, Iowa – The U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory Midwest Forensics Resource Centerreceived the Outstanding Partnership award from the Federal Laboratory Consortium for Technology Transfer Mid-Continent Region. The FLC Outstanding Partnership award recognizes the MFRC's efforts to promote technology transfer between federal government facilities and the private or public sectors.
The MFRC aims to develop new techniques in forensic science and to transfer those techniques to crime laboratories throughout the Midwest. One method of technology transfer is collaborative crime lab-centered forensic research projects that partner crime laboratories with scientists at the MFRC or Midwestern universities.
"All of the MFRC's efforts are designed to develop, test and evaluate more efficient and reliable methods of analyzing evidence and to get information about those methods out into crime laboratories where we hope the new techniques will help busy forensic scientists,†said David Baldwin, director of the MFRC. "We are pleased that the Federal Laboratory Consortium recognized our efforts and the efforts of our partner crime laboratories.â€
The MFRC also organizes training and development to transfer specialized forensic science and operations techniques to crime laboratory staff. Training topics range from examining the ink on questioned documents to bloodstain pattern analysis.
The FLC Outstanding Partnership award is jointly shared by the MFRC and MFRC's 2007-2008 research, development and technology transfer partners: Federal, state and local publicly funded crime laboratories in the states of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin.
"I am thrilled the MFRC was recognized by the Mid-Continent Region of the FLC,†said Deb Covey, Ames Laboratory associate director of sponsored research. "Since its inception, the MFRC has exemplified the term 'technology transfer' by not only partnering with the Midwest forensic community to provide new techniques and processes, but also by effectively transferring knowledge through new training components.â€
Ames Laboratory is a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science laboratory operated for the DOE by Iowa State University. Ames Laboratory creates innovative materials, technologies and energy solutions. We use our expertise, unique capabilities and interdisciplinary collaborations to solve global challenges.

Although conditional branching between possible behavioural states is a hallmark of intelligent behavior, very little is known about the neuronal mechanisms that support this processing. In a step toward solving this problem we demonstrate by theoretical analysis and simulation how networks of richly interconnected
neurons, such as those observed in the superficial layers of the neocortex, can embed reliable robust finite state machines. We show how a multi-stable neuronal network containing a number of states can be created very simply, by coupling two recurrent networks whose synaptic weights have been configured
for soft winner-take-all (sWTA) performance. These two sWTAs have simple, homogenous locally
recurrent connectivity except for a small fraction of recurrent cross-connections between them, which are used to embed the required states. This coupling between the maps allows the network to continue to express the current state even after the input that elicted that state is withdrawn. In addition, a small number of �transition neurons� implement the necessary input-driven transitions between the embedded states. We provide simple rules to systematically design and construct neuronal state machines of this kind. The significance of our finding is that it offers a method whereby the cortex could construct networks supporting a broad range of sophisticated processing by applying only small specializations to the same generic neuronal circuit.

By borrowing the same 1.2mm chassis as the A700 and benefiting from 6mm extruded military-grade HE9 aluminium front panel, the Saxon A500 is a very elegant and highly respected performer. It uses the same PCB as it's bigger brother but with a slightly smaller power supply and as a result a slightly lower output - 70 Watts into 8 ohms. The use of ultra-short signal-paths and the elimination of the need for conventional wiring has resulted in an exceptional price/performance ratio.
The power amp section in this integrated amplifier sets new standards at it's modest price, a level of dynamism and resolution previously unheard of in competing products. The increased resolution of transients, coupled with finely etched detail allows a stunning level of realism and scale.
Producing a healthy 75 Watts into 8 Ohms and over 125 Watts into more difficult 4 Ohm loads, the A500 demonstrates an impressive ability to drive even the most demanding of loudspeakers. As with all Saxon amplifiers, dynamics are a given - what may be surprising is the high-level of subtlety and deftness that also abounds from this muscular amplifier. Vocals in particular are projected with a sense of space and solidity that allows all the musical nuances to be felt and experienced, not just heard, this is a truly musical amplifier.
Standard 4mm gold plated binding posts are provided for the speaker outputs. The amplifier is fully equipped with remote control for input selection, volume and mute functions and has 6 line-level inputs with one pre-out socket for additional power amplifiers such as the Saxon P500 or 700.

In a just released report from the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office, the cause of death of actor Paul Walker was finally released to the public after his death on Nov. 30, 2013, as reported by Breitbart.com on Jan. 3, 2014.
The film star and his friend, financial management specialist and fellow care enthusiast Roger Rodas, were both killed in an automobile accident where the two self-admitted "adrenaline junkies" were in a high performance sports car, and reportedly driving at least 100 MPH when control of the vehicle was lost.
In the Los Angeles suburb of Santa Clarita, the two died in a mangled, flaming wreck of an almost unrecognizable hunk of metal that was once a limited-edition Porsche Carrera GT.
Breitbart.com flatly published that Rodas, who was behind the driver's wheel, died of "multiple traumatic injuries," which is a very sanitized way of stating he was crushed to death.
Sadly, Walker also suffered from the same "traumatic" crushing injuries as his friend, but while still alive the actor also suffered from "thermal injuries."
It's undetermined if Walker was conscious or not as he essentially burned to death.

Kristin Cavallari defended her anti-vaccine stance, saying she's concerned that vaccinations could cause asthma, autism and ear infections.
"At the end of the day, I'm just a mom. I'm trying to make the best decision for my kid," Cavallari said on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live March 18.
There are very scary statistics out there regarding what is in vaccines and what they cause: asthma, allergies, ear infections, all kinds of things. And we feel like we're making the best decision for our kids."
Kristin was responding to the following viewer question: "How can you knowingly support the spread of potentially deadly diseases by not vaccinating your children?"
Cavallari recently ignited a media firestorm after revealing she has never vaccinated her one-year-old son, Camden, because she's worried that vaccines cause autism. The former reality TV star is now pregnant with her second child.
"I've read too many books about autism," Kristin, 27, told the HuffingtonPost. "Autism wasn't prevalent — like it is now — years ago, so something is going on, whether it's the chemicals in our food or the vaccines. Something is happening, and we can't really ignore that. I choose to believe that I think it's in the vaccines but, again, to each their own and that's where I stand on it."
Cavallari, who's married to Chicago Bears quarterback husband Jay Cutler, isn't the only celebrity who's opposed to vaccinations. "The View" host Jenny McCarthy, whose 11-year-old son Evan is autistic, has also slammed vaccinations.
McCarthy was recently attacked on Twitter for saying Evan's autism was caused by the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine he received as a baby. In 2007, Jenny launched an anti-vaccine movement, which has been a continuing source of controversy for her.
Critics say McCarthy is spreading misinformation that could result in children's deaths. In response, Jenny said she has done extensive research and is convinced that the toxins in vaccinations contribute to autism.
"Isn't it ironic, in 1983 there were 10 shots, and now there's 36 and the rise of autism happened at the same time?" McCarthy told Larry King in a 2008 interview. "We need to get rid of the toxins, the mercury — which I am so tired of everyone saying has been removed. It has not been removed from the shots."
Jenny, a vegan, has also been under fire after remarking that she had cured her son's autism by eliminating gluten from his diet. McCarthy detailed her attempts to cure Evan's autism in her book Louder Than Words: A Mom's Journey in Healing Autism.
Autism is a developmental disability characterized by difficulty with communication and social interaction. There is no known cause or cure for autism. Autism now affects one in 68 children.

Two members of the Detroit Red Wings reached career milestones with the team's 3-2 shootout win over the Phoenix Coyotes on Thursday night.
Goaltender Jimmy Howard, who stopped Lauri Korpikoski on the final shot of the tiebreaker to preserve the win, picked up the 100th victory of his career. In 171 NHL games, he is now 100-47-16.
It was the 400th career win for Detroit head coach Mike Babcock. He started his career with 69 wins across two seasons for the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim and has picked up 331 more in six seasons with the Red Wings.
Additionally, Danny Cleary picked up his 200th career assist on Detroit's third-period tying goal.
Henrik Zetterberg's shootout goal ended up being the difference in the game. In the fourth round Zetterberg used the "Forsberg Move" to beat Phoenix netminder Mike Smith, drawing Smith to his right before reaching back and poking the puck into the open side of the net with one hand on his stick.
Pavel Datsyuk also scored for the Red Wings, beating Smith glove side. Radim Vrbata faked out Jimmy Howard for Phoenix's lone shootout tally. Smith made saves on both Jiri Hudler and Valtteri Filppula while Howard stopped Gilbert Brule, Oliver Ekman-Larsson, and Korpikoski.
The Coyotes had opened the game's scoring at 9:41 of the first period, when Vrbata carried the puck from his own blue line into the Detroit end and snapped a shot from the top of the left faceoff circle past Howard.
Filppula blasted a shot from the high slot past Smith with 51 seconds left in the opening frame to tie things back up.
After a scoreless second period, Taylor Pyatt put Phoenix back in front at 3:02 of the third. Kyle Chipchura drove down the right wing and cut to the net, with Howard making the initial stop. Pyatt was right there to chip the rebound over Howard, though, making it 2-1.
The Red Wings rallied again with 9:57 left in regulation. Johan Franzen snuck to the far side of the crease all alone and Datsyuk hit him with a pass from the right wing boards for a tip past Smith.
Smith finished the night with 40 saves on 42 Detroit shots. Howard stopped 25 of the 27 chances he faced.
Neither team scored a power play goal on the night, each having two tries with the extra attacker.
The Red Wings are back in action when they host the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday afternoon.
Notes: Pavel Datsyuk and Jan Mursak each returned from injury for the game. Datsyuk had missed the previous game with a sore groin while Mursak had yet to play this season, recovering from a broken leg... Todd Bertuzzi was the scratched forward for the Red Wings... Mike Commodore was the scratch on defense.
The Red Wings return home from their four-game road trip tonight, hosting the Phoenix Coyotes.
Detroit forward Pavel Datsyuk will be a game-time decision, having missed Tuesday's loss to the New York Islanders with a groin injury. If he's unable to go, Jan Mursak will make his first appearance of the season, having been called back up from his conditioning stint with the Grand Rapids Griffins.
On defense, Mike Commodore will sit, still bothered by a sore foot after blocking a shot in Chicago on Sunday. This leaves Jakub Kindl as the sixth defenseman.
Jimmy Howard will start in goal after two consecutive starts for Ty Conklin.
Game time is 7:30 PM. TV is FSD.
I'll miss most (if not all) of this one as I've got a 7:50 soccer game.
I got back in time to catch the final minutes of the third, OT, and the shootout. Not going to try to give full postgame thoughts because of it.
That said, I can't be the only one who saw Zetterberg shooting fourth, looked at his shooting percentage, and thought "aww f*ck." Glad I was wrong.
Howdy stranger!
That said, I can't be the only one who saw Zetterberg shooting fourth, looked at his shooting percentage, and thought "aww f*ck." Glad I was wrong.
No thoughts on the Hudler attempt, though? I don't have accurate words for that so I hope this picture will suffice

Java Tsunami on the Thames
By Yolande Poirier-Oracle on Feb 28, 2013
London prepares for a surge of developer brainpower during the Devoxx UK conference on Tuesday and Wednesday, March 26th and 27th. Meet & Greet, global Java community, and Hackergarten are nice add-ons. Don't miss it - Register today!
The fun really starts on Monday evening with an attendee Meet & Greet where attendees can relax, grab a drink and something to eat and, of course, meet fellow attendees and the speakers.
In addition to U.K speakers, many international guests are scheduled, notably from the US. Twenty-eight user groups from across Europe are attending too. A veritable army of experts will be on hand to share their expertise with Devoxx attendees.
Hackergarten takes place during the conference. There's no time limit; participants can stay and code for as long as they want. Just bring a laptop and write a plugin, a tutorial, a small feature, or a bug fix for a project that interests you alongside several open-source experts willing to share their knowledge. The organizers of two community projects called Adopt-a-JSR and Adopt Open JDK will be there to explain how to contribute to the future Java releases.

Once upon a time, on a cold October 18th 2010 morning, the Outdoor Blogger Network was officially launched. Last week, on January 18th, Joe and I quietly celebrated the 3 month anniversary of the OBN. No wine, chocolates or flowers were involved with that special occasion, however, Joe did send me a very large box of candy canes (hundreds of them!) that should keep me going until next Christmas. If I end up toothless by 2012, we all know who gets the blame.
With this 100th post milestone, Joe and I thought we'd stand up to the podium, give our current status report and future OBN goals/ideas and then, take suggestions & questions from the crowd.
~The State of the OBN~
The Numbers:
- This post marks 100 entries and 1,525 comments
- There are now over 560 Outdoor Blogs listed on the Outdoor Blogger Directory
Future Plans:
Weekly Outdoor Blogger Network Radio Show:
Joe and I are always looking for ways to make the OBN community interactive and we have a blog talk radio show in our radar. A radio show appears to be another avenue we could utilize to achieve a new level of blogger interaction on the OBN. We could talk live to featured Outdoor Bloggers, discuss the gear we use and highlight special events, contests and much more.
Outdoor Blogger Network Rendezvous:
Joe and I have been looking into, discussing and lining up the details of putting together a OBN rendezvous for this summer. Nothing has been set in stone, yet, but it looks like Denver Colorado would be an acceptable location to hold a national get-together of Outdoor Bloggers. We see a convention style 2 day event that everyone can come to, meet their fellow bloggers in person, attend classes, meet industry leaders, watch demonstrations or participate in special events.
Outdoor Blogger Awards:
A thirty minute stroll through the Outdoor Blogger Directory will show anyone that there is a lot of excellence in Outdoor blogging going on. This year Joe and I will have a platform in place to facilitate an OBN Blog Awards. This will be a community project and will need everyones support. We would like to recognize outstanding individual blogs within the Outdoor Blogging community and to do that, we need to narrow down the fields. Starting with nominations, voting and ultimately ending with the chosen top blogs in each category.
We built the Outdoor Blogger Network on the foundation of community interaction. The way we see it, this is your community and we welcome ideas, suggestions and possible projects from everyone that participates here.
What do you think of the three main future plans we have for the OBN?
If we did a radio show, would anyone listen or would the sounds of crickets echo the airwaves?
If we put together a convention would anyone come or would Joe and I have to eat all the donuts ourselves?
Does anyone have a name for the OBN awards besides the OBNY's? (That's the best we've come up with so far)
Do you have other ideas that you would love to see on the OBN? We can't promise that a suggestion/idea will be implemented here, but we will certainly take everything into consideration.
And lastly, thank you everyone, for making the Outdoor Blogger Network what it is today.
Rebecca and Joe

This weekend I spent a little time going through my spice cupboard and found one that I rarely use. Cardamom. Other than a few of my ethnic chutneys and a few baked good here and there, it doesn't get used much. You can find it in whole pod form in health food or specialty grocery stores and the pods are a pale green color are about the size of your pinky nail, or you can find ground cardamom in your spice isle at your favorite store. I also decided that I was going to try and eat more chicken this year. It is a meat that I rarely eat, mainly because I know there are so many other flavorful meats that I would rather prepare, but also because it when most people prepare it, it is beyond dry and probably cooked to 180 or 200 degrees, rather than the 165 that is should be cooked to. That is why I love to use chicken thighs. It's dark meat, so it can handle heat better without drying out and it's an inexpensive part of the chicken to use.
Here is a delicious, quick and easy chicken recipe that my aunt and I collaborated on that can be made with either skin on or skinless chicken, but we both prefer skin on because of how the flavors or the sauce stick to it and then it becomes a warm, crisp and delicious shell that helps to hold in all of the chicken juices it gets when this bakes. To make this dish weeknight friendly, the sauce can be made up to 3 days in advances and stored in the refrigerator for convenience, just be sure to bring back to room temperature before using. Enjoy!
Cardamom Chicken with Potatoes & Onions
- 1/2 cup agave nectar
- 3 tbsp Orange Zest (about 2 small oranges)
- 2 tsbp grated ginger (use a spoon to help peel the ginger in a hurry…see photo)
- 1 Tbsp olive oil (I prefer to use coconut oil, but it's not as easily found)
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp ground cardamom
- 2 lbs pounds new red potatoes, halved
- 1 large onion, diced very large
- 2 tbsp olive oil (again, I prefer coconut oil if you have it)
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
- 2 lbs skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts or thighs (If you sub boneless/skinless please add 1 tbsp oil to potato mixture) rinsed and patted dry
- 1 Tbsp dijon mustard
Preheat oven to 425. In a small bowl, combine agave, zest, ginger, 1 tsbp olive oil, 1 tsp kosher salt, 1.2 tsp cracked pepper, garlic powder, and cardamom. Set aside. In large baking pan, toss new potatoes, onions, olive oil, 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper until evenly combined. Lay chicken pieces over the top and pour zest mixture over being sure to coat all areas of the chicken. (if using skin-on chicken try and rub a little of it under the skin.) Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until chicken skin has begun to brown and appears crispy. Remove from oven. Being sure to leave pan drippings in the pan, use a tongs to place the chicken on serving platter and tent loosly with foil. Using a slotted spoon, put the potatoes and onions into a serving bowl. Set both aside. Meanwhile, while pan is still very hot, whisk 1 tbsp dijon mustard into the pan dripping. Be sure to scrape all brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Use sauce to drizzle over the chicken when it is served. Enjoy!

Squaw Valley has four of its athletes heading to Sochi and the Winter Olympics, according to a press release by Amelia Richmond on January 28.
Richmond said that, "Squaw Valley's Julia Mancuso, Travis Ganong, Marco Sullivan and Nate Holland will all be representing Team USA in their respective fields. They are now part of the largest U.S. Winter Olympic Team in history which consists of 230 world-class athletes."
Todd Kelly, ski team director at Squaw Valley, chipped in with this: ""We are so proud of all of the incredible athletes who are representing the United States in Sochi. We will be cheering them on from Squaw Valley and hope they bring home some new hardware to show off!"
Julia Mancuso, competing in her fourth Olympics, will ski in the women's downhill, super-G, giant slalom, and super combined. That's a pretty intense schedule.
Nate Holland, in his third Olympics, will compete in men's snowboard cross. He is a multi-talented athlete who has won eight X Games gold medals.
Marco Sullivan, a Squaw Valley guy, also competes in his fourth Olympics. His races are the men's downhill and the super-G.
Travis Ganong, a Squaw Valley native, will be in his first Olympic Games. He will also compete in the men's downhill and the super-G. This youngster started skiing at Squaw Valley as a youngster.
That's a pretty impressive group, right out of our own Lake Tahoe and Squaw Valley.

The Heat's final four … the real madness
Yes, Pat Riley said, knock yourself out with those dreams of the top pick in the NBA Draft. After all, a Heat fan has to grasp on to something to avoiding drowning in this misery.
Covet, if you want, the nearly 50-percent chance the Heat will have of landing one of the first two selections.
But what if? (Caution: Half-empty spoiler here.) What if the draft lottery produces the No. 3 or No. 4 pick?
Jerryd Bayless? Brook Lopez? Eric Gordon? O.J. Mayo?
Ugh. Oh, the Heat will parade those and other suspects in for interviews. But none would remove the stench of 13-69 or 14-68 or 15-67.
Instead, figure on a for-sale sign outside of AmericanAirlines Arena, with distressed property the selling point.
If the draft can't revitalize the Heat, it could facilitate remodeling. Want No. 3 or No. 4? Fine, but it'll have to be a package deal with Mark Blount or Marcus Banks (or both?).
Yes, the Heat would have to take on short-term matching salary, but nothing like the two years Blount has remaining or the three on Banks' deal.
Last year, such an approach fetched Ray Allen for the Celtics. The Heat, of course, would need younger, and, preferably better. But as the NCAA Tournament draws to a close, the past few weeks might prove to have been about where the true value rests if those ping-pong balls don't bounce neatly into place.

"Author Cornelia Funke's best-selling children's novel comes to vivid life on the big screen with this family-f riendly tale about a bookbinder whose storytelling skills possess the curi ous power to transport the characters he speaks about into the real world. When a nefarious villain from a bedtime story that the father is currentl y reading to his daughter emerges to kidnap the stunned storyteller\, it's up to the young girl and her adventurous friends — both real and imaginar y — to bring dad back home and close the book on the dreaded fiend once an d for all." ~ Jason Buchanan\, Rovi (fandango.com)\n
