NEW ORLEANS -- Wave after wave they came at 49ers quarterback Alex Smith, as unrelenting as the Baltimore Ravens' defense.
Smith stood tall amid the crush of reporters Tuesday at media day at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, while some 30 yards away, Colin Kaepernick sat at an elevated podium reserved for 14 players deemed to be the 49ers' biggest stories.
Smith was tantalizingly close to being put on a pedestal a year ago until the 49ers lost to the New York Giants in overtime. He lost his job to Kaepernick after a concussion.
When it was suggested to Smith that perhaps he should wish five interceptions upon Kaepernick in Super Bowl XLVII, he bristled.
"Why do you play football?" Smith said. "Why do you play a team sport? If it's all about yourself, go play golf. I'm not saying all this has been easy. It hasn't. But if you can't be happy for a teammate's success, there's something wrong with you."
Coach Jim Harbaugh went so far as to suggest Monday that Smith was doing most of the coaching when it comes to Kaepernick.
"I don't know about any of that," Smith said. "We've got a great quarterback room. It's just a great environment. Everybody can speak freely in there. We all have a lot of insight."
It has been a reversal or roles for Smith, who ascended to the starting position at Utah when quarterback Brett Elliott broke his wrist in 2003.
Smith took over the starting job, eventually becoming a finalist for the Heisman Trophy as well as the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft. Elliott, before transferring to Linfield College, finished out the season as a model teammate.
"I played well those three weeks, he didn't get to come back," Smith said. "I respected the way he handled it back then. I know we were able to remain close through that, and it was hard for him."

Since the cause of
non-Hodgkins lymphoma
is unknown, there are few things you can do to reduce your risk. Some possible means to reduce risk are explained here.
People who work around pesticides, fertilizers, and solvents have a greater chance of developing non-Hodgkins lymphoma than people who are not exposed to these chemicals.
Lymphomas are more common in groups of individuals who have unusually high exposure to radiation, such as people with occupational exposure, those exposed to nuclear bomb blasts, and those exposed to high levels of radon gas. Therapeutic
do not increase your risk of developing lymphoma.
Non-Hodgkins lymphoma occurs more often in people who have been infected with
than in those who are HIV-negative. Steps to avoid HIV infection include:
There is some evidence to suggest that patients who have chronic immune-mediated disease, such as gluten intolerance, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, are more likely to develop lymphomas than the general population. Although the evidence is incomplete, it's a good idea to follow your doctor's recommendations for managing your immune-mediated illness to avoid any possible increase of risk in developing lymphoma.

From College to Corporation - First Steps at Oracle Sales Academy
By OliviaOC on Feb 06, 2014
College is considered by most to be the best years of their lives.
When one looks at college, what does s/he recall? Alumni often reminisce about friends and fellow students as well as a few impactful classes and organizations to which they were overly dedicated. I personally wasn't ready to leave college. My Fourth Year was by far my favorite and sadly that bittersweet graduation day loomed large. Fortunately, before I left the cocoon in Charlottesville, I received an offer from Oracle which on paper appeared to have everything I could want from an employer. It included intensive training in a social, team-oriented yet competitive atmosphere where there was plenty of room for professional development. The problem was, while I worked countless internships, I still had no clue what I really wanted to do. I simply had an expensive piece of paper denoting college's end.
Nevertheless, armed with a couple bags, an almost dead phone, and a plane ticket to a side of the country I had only viewed through the lens of Hollywood and MTV, I was off....[Read More]

Health Information > Medications > Asthma and Lung Disease Medications > Devices for Inhaled Medications > Nebulizers > Pari LC® Star Nebulizer with Amikacin
Many medications are available as inhaled treatments. Inhaled methods deliver medication directly to the airway, which is useful for respiratory problems.
A nebulizer delivery system consists of a nebulizer (small plastic medication cup with a lid that drops into the cup and twists) and a source for compressed air. The air flow from the compressor to the nebulizer changes the medication solution to a mist. When inhaled correctly, the medication has a better chance to reach the small airways. This increases the medication's effectiveness.
Supplies You Will Need:
If You Have Family Members or Animals at Home:
Note: If you are using the nebulizer in the hospital, connect the tubing to the wall air and turn the wall air on to 6 liters.
If You are in a Closed Room, Outside or if You Live by Yourself:
Remember to take the pre-treatment medicine before the nebulized treatment.
Please follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning the nebulizer equipment. Suggested guidelines include the following:
To disinfect and sterilize your nebulizer with boiling water:
Remember to change the nebulizer tubing every 2 weeks.
Check the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and care of the compressor you are using.

Festival celebrates local wine
Published: Saturday, September 28, 2013 at 5:16 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 28, 2013 at 5:16 p.m.
Mary Spon moved from table to table in the courtyard at Mountain Inn and Suites. At each table, different wines were poured into her glass and she savored the flavors.
Spon and her husband, Wayne, attended the first Mountain Wine and Music Festival. The event featured eight local winemakers who set up beneath a tent in the festival to showcase their wine.
"It's really an educational experience," Spon said.
And that's what the event was supposed to be, organizer Julia Newbold said.
"...The wine industry in North Carolina is booming," she said, which is "increasing our business."
There are more than 100 wineries and vineyards in the state, she said.
The eight involved in the festival were Saint Paul Mountain Vineyards, Burntshirt Vineyards, Mountain Brook Vineyards, Parker-Binns Vineyard and Winery, Biltmore Estate Winery, Laurel Gray Vineyards, Noble Cider and Newbold's company, Falderal Winery.
"It's definitely increased exposure for everybody," Newbold said.
The event had live music and food and tents from local businesses. The wine, however, was the center of attention.
"We've been into wine for quite some time," Wayne Spon said. "(The festival) is great PR for North Carolina wines"
"This is a tremendous opportunity all in one place," Mary Spon added.
The first festival was deemed a success early on by Newbold. It met its expectations, she said.
"We wanted something that was exclusive about the art of grape growing and winemaking," she said.

PHOENIX -- Sonny Gray didn't have much problem throwing two strikes Saturday. Throwing the third one was an issue, however.
The A's starter was able to get ahead in the count against Texas in his first start of the Cactus League, but by his own admission started to be too fine.
Asked what he'd take away from this game, a soggy 2-2 nine-inning tie, Gray said "maybe after I got to two strikes, I tried to make my pitches too good.''
"I need to try and put guys away and not nibble,'' he said. "But I was able to make pitches when I had to.''
Gray, throwing mostly fastballs, showed the Rangers, a team he'd never faced before, his curve three times "when I needed to make a pitch.''
The right-hander wound up putting men on second in third in both the first and second innings, but both times was able to pitch out of it and left the game with 1-0 lead.
The 24-year-old outfielder got the call in center after noontime downpours socked Phoenix Municipal Stadium, leading manager Bob Melvin to give veteran center fielder Coco Crisp the day off after a 29-minute rain delay. The A's turned to Burns, who was with the Nationals until the A's picked him up in an offseason trade.
By the time the day was done, Burns had two hits, including a bunt single, steals of third and of second, the only two A's runs scored and two men thrown out on the bases, one at third and another at the plate.
"If he doesn't play today, we're in a little trouble,'' Melvin said.
The A's were most intrigued by the throws, because the speed part of Burns' game -- one of his hits was a bunt single he legged out -- is well known. In both cases, Burns got to the ball quickly, got in front of it, then let fly with an accurate if not particularly strong throw.
"What really impressed us were the throws,'' the manager said. "He doesn't have a plus arm but gets in front of the ball and makes accurate throws. He doesn't look overmatched out there.''
Burns, Washington's minor league player of the year after hitting .315 with 74 steals between Class-A and Double-A, said that before the trade of Jerry Blevins to the Nationals, the Nats had Burns working on ways to make him more difficult to run on.
"That's always been a weak area for me,'' Burns said. "I've been working to get to the ball faster, to charge it and to be accurate.''
Burns stole third as part of a double steal in the first inning, then stole second in the eighth and scored from third on a Rangers error.
Asked the part of his day he liked the most, however, Burns said, "I was really happy with my bunt,'' only then adding, "I was happy my throws were on line.''
The desire to play was perhaps boosted by the fact that the outfielder's old team, the Rangers, stood as Saturday's competition. Michael Choice, the promising young outfielder the A's traded this winter to get Gentry, was in the Texas lineup.
Gentry's persistent back problem hasn't entirely dissipated, and until it does, the A's won't have their probable fourth outfielder in a game. It will be at least another week.
"I'm all right with it,'' Gentry said. "I'm keeping a good head about all of it. If this was the regular season, it would be a different story. But it's early in the spring, and there is lots of time left. What none of us want is for this to come back later.''

When the extension is installed and configured it will automatically open URLs matching its list of keywords in pinned or private tabs and optionally close the source tab.
The matching URL itself will still appear in history etc, however it provides a nice way to automatically use a specific jump page for private browsing.
i.e. if a user dislikes google's tracking policy and they save "google" as a keyword, every time they open a page containing *google* it will be opened in a private tab. This has the advantage that the cookies are trashed every time the browser is closed without having to configure it in site-properties.
At the moment, it appears impossible to intercept the request before the initial page is loaded, therefore unfortunately the page will be loaded twice :(!

This is awesome. Along with Ghostery, this is great for Google who do their best to track us all over the web. Works with them at least.
Leaves some room for improvements.
You might wanna have a look @ window.location.replace / window.history.replaceState() to get rid of the URL in browsing history ( -> http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/browsers.html#history-1 )
I like the layout of the options page, though :)
Great extension!
But there's a little issue,the extension will open the current page in private tab as long as the URL contains the keywords,so if my keyword is "youku",URL like this will also be opened in private tab:
Could you make it only work when the keywords appear in the domain name?
Or I can make the keyword "youku.com"...never mind..I just figured out the solution,great work you :)
А по-русски??
Its good if you have two accounts in some site :yes: :up:
It can also be good for developers, if you add the option to make the second one a mobile one. I would appreciate it if i could open two language versions of a .wikipedia.org page
good extension but history of main url of visited site Remain in opera .
amazing but Ram consumption increase faster
(test in Opera 12.10 Win Xp and Win 7)
Amazing. Now I can login on facebook and google without risk of being traced
Would have been good. And has brilliant keyword matching. But after changing a tab to private, even with "Close source tab checked" It does not deleted the history of you visiting that tab. I think that should at least be an option, otherwise, what's the point? It still stores loads of data, on the tab you have left open.

The Pittsburgh Post Gazette has uncovered the details of a new "climate control" plan personally developed by US President George W. Bush that is set to be officially announced in the next few days.
Details so far:

its a real possibility
When the "deniers" wake up, they're going to be looking for the planetary thermostat see paper by Paul Crutzen http://www.cogci.dk/news/Crutzen_albedo%20enhancement_sulfur%20injections.pdf
Then the argument will instantly flip. No more demands that proof beyond doubt must arrive before they can lift one finger to do anything. Then we'll have another uncontrolled, globally pervasive experiment whose ultimate consequences could be second only to a global nuclear war, as the landmark 1988 Changing Atmosphere conference in Toronto put it, only this one will be intended…

There are many errors in that link to dailytech
There are a number of errors in what you have posted.
The paper is in the Newsletter of a forum of APS, not the APS itself. The Forum is called The Forum on Physics and Society.
Secondly, the "paper" by Monckton has not been endorsed by 50,000 physicists, rather it was an invited paper to start a debate on AGW. The editor of the forum invited a paper from the contra-camp (Monckton) and one from the pro-camp (Hafemeister and Schwartz). He then asked for "reasoned rebuttals from the authors as well as further contributions from the physics community".
Hafemeister and Schwartz concluded their invited paper with the following: "(The) Earth is getting warmer. Basic atmospheric models clearly predict that additional greenhouse gasses will raise the temperature of Earth. To argue otherwise, one must prove a physical mechanism that gives a reasonable alternative cause of warming. This has not been done. Sunspot and temperature correlations do not prove causality".
So it is wrong to say that "50,000 physicists support the "paper" submitted by Monckton. In fact, there are many negative critiques of this "paper" in many science fora on the internet and elsewhere.
It is completely dishonest for anyone to suggest that Monckton's "paper" is the view of the APS.
Monckton's "paper" contains many errors both in physics and climate science.
I look forward to the many responses from members of the APS to this "debate".

I did not nor anyone to my knowledge claim the 50,000 members support a skeptic view. The APS opened it up for debate, which is interesting that the APS did so after hearing "here" that the debate been over for years.
Something that you have over looked too is the inconvienent fact global warming seems to have stopped a decade ago and recently the earth has been cooling, which is in conflict with computer model projections.
Inland, away from the moderating influence of oceans our temperature drops rapidly when the sun sets. Given 96 hours of darkness the world would freeze. There is no greenhouse effect.
To quote Stephen Wilde "The atmospheric greenhouse effect is a flea on the back of an oceanic elephant and the influence of CO2 but a microbe on the back of the flea and the influence of anthropogenic CO2 but a molecule on the back of the microbe"
Ian Forrester replied on Permalink
You haven't done much research on this, have you?
Everywhere on the denier blogsphere people are trumpeting that "50,000 physicists" agree that global warming is a hoax.
Your denier status is revealed in the second half of your post. The green house effect is real, trust me (otherwise the average temperature would be about minus 15 C.

A forum of APS opened the debate. It is included in a newsletter not one of their peer reviewed journals.

I thought it was obvious, I do not believe humans have a signifigant effect on global temperatures. And no I do not believe 500,000 physicists deny AWG but obviously some of them do.

"obviously some of them do"
And God bless 'em. Let's hope/pray "some" eventually come up with a rational argument disproving AGW, one that indicates a return to millenial climate trends and away from the climate disruption already in evidence.
In the meantime, there's work to be done in both the mitigation of further AGW and adaptation to new conditions already manifesting themselves.

This is an excerpt from EERE Network News, a weekly electronic newsletter.

Oregon Requires Biofuel Blends in Both Gasoline and Diesel Fuels
Oregon Governor Ted Kulongoski signed legislation on July 3rd that will require all gasoline sold in the state to be blended with 10% ethanol (a blend known as E10) and all diesel fuel sold in the state to be blended with 2% biodiesel (a blend known as B2). The requirement for gasoline will take effect when Oregon's ethanol production reaches 40 million gallons per year, and the diesel requirement kicks in when the Pacific Northwest's production of biodiesel reaches 5 million gallons per year. When biodiesel production reaches 15 million gallons per year, the blending requirement will increase to 5% (a blend known as B5). The bill creates tax incentives for producers of biofuel feedstocks and for consumers who buy E85 (a blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline) or pure biodiesel. The bill also includes a tax incentive for consumers that buy home heating pellets made exclusively from biomass sources. See the text of the bill, HB 2210.
The governor also noted that the legislature approved a bill that increases the business energy tax credit on renewable energy systems from 35% to 50% and increases the credit cap from $10 million to $20 million. A separate bill expands the residential energy tax credit to encourage the greater adoption of renewable energy technologies. See the governor's press release.

With the November elections drawing near, the campaigning has reached a crescendo pitch. Ads promoting (or more often, condemning) candidates make up what seems to be the majority of the commercials on TV. Our post office boxes are filled with campaign flyers. And driving past the Eagle County building, with its thick jungle of campaign yard signs, is more distracting than cell phone texting. Regardless of the signs and slogans, there's one issue that drives the votes of millions of people in our nation: their faith. Which raises the question among many: What role should faith play in an election?
You don't have to look long or hard to find churches and religious leaders throwing their weight behind certain candidates. This is true on both sides of the political spectrum. The threat of losing tax-exempt status doesn't seem to deter many in the faith in community. As a Christian pastor, I find this trend disturbing.
Jesus made it clear what he expects of his Church: "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them ... and teaching them" (Matthew 28:19,20). The ultimate goal of Christians and Christian churches is (or ought to be) winning hearts and souls for Christ. The tool God gave his Church to accomplish this goal is the gospel - the good news of our Savior and our salvation.
The purpose of the government is very different. Unlike the Church, the government's concern revolves around behavior, not faith. St. Paul wrote, "He (that is, the government) is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer" (Romans 13:4). God expects the government to maintain order, protect its citizens, and see to it that we can live our lives in relative safety and peace. The tool he gave the government to carry this out are laws and the enforcement of laws.
Christian voters would be wise to keep these differences in mind. We should not expect our church to tell us whom to vote for; we dare not expect our elected officials to carry out the job God gave his Church.
That's not to say that we should leave our faith behind when we enter the voting booth. If we're sincere in our beliefs, of course they will influence our opinions and decisions in all areas of life, including politics. Christians, like anyone else, ought to vote their consciences. And the Christian's conscience will naturally be influenced by his or her faith. But let's be careful - very careful -that we not confuse the role of church and state at election time or any other time.
Then, regardless of which candidates are elected, let us cheerfully obey what God commands us: "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone - for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness" (1 Timothy 2:1,2).

1926 Independence Sesquicentennial Quarter Eagle
Here's a commemorative coin that's a great subject for July and Independence Day. It marks the sesquicentennial (that's a fancy word for 150th anniversary) of the year the Declaration of Independence was signed by the Continental Congress.
Finding a specimen of this coin is pretty hard...especially finding one in really good condition. One reason is that the coins weren't sold in protective packaging, so survivors tend to be worn. Another reason is that only 200,000 were made, and only about 46,000 of them were sold. The rest were melted down after the fair.
The fair was a huge 6-month-long exposition held in Philadelphia, birthplace of the nation. The arts, sciences, and industries created major exhibits. Coin sales were to help offset the cost of the fair.
By the way, a quarter eagle is a gold coin marked $2.50. So how much would an eagle be? If you figured $10.00, you're right! Four times as much!
Liberty's clothing (on the front of the coin) is modern for its day. Its straight lines and tight cap were fashionable in the 1920s when it was made. The building on the back is Independence Hall, the state house of Pennsylvania, where the Declaration was signed.
Actually, there was a second coin made to commemorate the sesquicentennial and also sold at the fair. It was a silver half dollar with an interesting twist to its obverse image. There's no room to tell you about it now, but maybe we can make it the Coin of the Month next July!

Swartz sets ECAC record in one-meter dive
Dec. 4, 2011
Hoboken, N.J. - Junior Molly Swartz (Grass Valley, Calif.) set an ECAC Winter Championship record on the one-meter diving board with a score of 406.00 on Saturday. Swartz placed first in both the one-meter and three-meter competitions, while freshman Kyle Gannon (North Babylon, N.Y.) placed first in the men's three-meter competition.
Sophomore Serra Czapla (Glastonbury, Conn.) took second in this year's one-meter competition with a personal-best mark of 388.50, which also was a higher score than the previous ECAC record of 383.85 set in 1998. The score landed Czapla in second place behind Swartz, while junior Jodie Darnell (Rocklin, Calif.) rounded out the top three with a mark of 365.80.
On the three-meter board, the Seawolves again took the top three places as Darnell took second behind Swartz with a score of 380.75, while Czapla took third with 359.50.
Gannon placed third overall in the men's three-meter event with a score of 382.95.
The Seawolves were one of 13 teams competing at the ECAC Winter Championship on the women's side, and one of 15 teams on the men's side. Following the meet, Swartz was named Women's Diver of the Meet, while head diving coach Dr. Brian Yodice was named Women's Diving Coach of the Meet.

Boiling Springs man arrested on drug charges
Published: Saturday, March 30, 2013 at 11:08 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 30, 2013 at 11:08 p.m.
A Boiling Springs man is facing multiple drug charges after deputies knocked on his door and asked for consent to search his home.
According to a report from the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office, deputies performed a "knock and talk" at the home of Terrance Moorman, 1520 Boiling Springs Road. When Moorman, 39, answered the door, deputies said they smelled marijuana from inside the home. Moorman gave the officers consent to search the residence, according to the report.
Inside, they found 13 pounds of marijuana, 4.6 grams of cocaine, 0.7 grams of heroin and 15 unidentified pills, according to the report. Deputies also seized $900 in cash from Moorman.
According to online jail records, Moorman is charged with trafficking marijuana and four charges of manufacturing, possessing or distributing drugs.

New biomarker for Alzheimer onset
27.06.2012 - GE Healthcare and the VTT Technical Research Centre have joint forces on validating a biomarker signature in a large patient cohort.
Espoo/Chalfont St Giles/Beerse – Last December, researchers from the VTT discovered a serum biochemical signature which predicts progression to Alzheimer's disease (AD) months or even years before the first symptoms of the disease occur (Transl. Psychiatry 1, e57). Early detection of prodromal AD is vital both for assessing the efficacy of potential AD therapeutic agents as well as new disease modifying therapies are most likely to be effective when initiated during the early stages of disease. The elucidation of early metabolic pathways associated with progression to Alzheimer's disease may also help in identifying new therapeutic avenues. The first research projects have already begun, said VTT's research professor Matej Orešič to EuroBiotechNews.eu. "We use a key biomarker metabolite (2,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid) that is a known cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) metabolite. We have preliminary data linking this metabolite measured in CSF to AD", says Orešič.
In 2010 GE Healthcare entered into a "biosignatures initiative" alliance with Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V. to develop diagnostic biosignatures for pre-symptomatic identification of AD. As part of this programme, VTT will apply serum metabolite profiling to validate their recently discovered biochemical signature, as well as to discover novel biomarker candidates predictive of progression to AD.
Orešič said: "We are excited about the prospect of collaborating with GE Healthcare to accelerate its research programmes and to further develop our biomarker towards a clinical assay applicable in healthcare setting. VTT has, over the past years, built unique metabolomics and systems biology platforms and acquired vast amount of knowledge on metabolic profiles and pathways in human health and disease, which allow us to identify disease-specific biochemical signatures and pathways. We believe that integration of metabolomics into the GE's and Janssen's biosignatures initiative will lead to better tools for early detection of AD and may also lead to better therapeutic options."http://www.european-biotechnology-news.com/news/news/2012-02/new-biomarker-for-alzheimer-onset.html

|With Martin Nagel, his third 14er. This was one of the most fun climbs I've been on. The scenery is beautiful, and seems to change every few minutes, as does the climbing. I didn't find the new route nearly as hard as I expected it to be (based on older descriptions). The new trail that's going in will make it easier to find the way up to the basin.

|Did not summit that trip but a fun time nonetheless. The talus and scree approach to the ampitheater sucked, but from there it was a good climb. I had to turn back becuase there was too much snow still on the ledges and I was only carrying water, no ice axe or anything.

|I love this mountain. It is a hard approach, but the last 1000 feet are pure BLISS, just keep your ears sharp and your eyes open for the unrelenting rockfall from above. Snow storm came in 5 minutes after the summit was attained, so that really kicked in the adrenaline! I will climb this one again for sure...

|Light intermittant snow fall in the clouds blowing by. Man it's great to be on top of a fourteener again. One of our party got altitude sickness on the way up, and we ended up getting caught in the rain and hail on the way down. Everybody made it back safe though. Great climb. We met some people on our way up that climbed up a "Southwest Coulour?" route.

|One of the more fun mountains out there, but climbing two steep couloirs was kind of a pain! The last part is well worth it...unless a guy above you kicks a rock the size of a refrigerator down on a party of 12 below him. I was watching this from just above the narrow ledge and it was pretty scary - thankfully, everyone got out of the way. Watch out for loose rocks, but don't forget to have fun.

We got off route and climbed the southernmost notch into the upper portion of the Ampitheatre, which is actually not a bad route since it avoids most of the rocks. We descended the Ampitheatre in a hailstorm. I've now climbed all the CO 14ers but Culebra. Pyramid was my 28'th in 6 weeks.

|Like Kane, I thought the most important thing while on Pyramid is trying not to dislodge rocks on people below. I found this mountain to be looser than the Bells, but the climbing, I thought, was never all too difficult. There seems to be a newly cairned route on the NE ridge that avoids the crux wall referred to in Dawson's and Roach's guides. A trip report is available here.

|When you read accounts of Pyramid Peak being relentlesslt\y steep, it is true (4,400-ft in 3 miles) Pyramid is an excercise in physical endurance and mental toughness, so be prepared for your tallest order .This mountain is comlplex , exposure is around every corner. The thing I will take away from my day on Pyramid will be dealing with the crumbling rock, being careful not to dislodge debris onto climbers below.

|Awesome Climb! very steep though, and the "kneebanging" descent was not fun :( I dont know which way Gerry Roach climbed this mountain, but the last thousand feet is not all fatal drops as he exclaims in his guidebook. I think he just gets a little over dramatic in most of his "descriptions".

Courteney Cox spilled the beans to Ellen DeGeneres that her ex-husband David Arquette and his girlfriend Christina McLarty are having a boy.
"They're going to have a baby boy," Cox, 49, said Tuesday on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." "I hope I'm allowed to say that."
"Well, now you've said it," DeGeneres said. "Is (Coco) excited about being a big sister?"
Coco is Cox's daughter with Arquette. You know she's the child of celebrities because she has a weird name.
"Yeah, she's really excited," Cox said. "At first she was nervous because, you know, it's a big deal. At first, I was nervous, I was like woo, heavy."
The "Cougartown" actress and Arquette married in 1999 and divorced in May 2013. Arquette, 42, has dated "Entertainment Tonight" correspondent McLarty on-and-off for more than two years. A source told Us Weekly in November the pair are expecting their first child together.
Cox told DeGeneres she has a good relationship with Arquette and McLarty. "Now it's great and we actually all had dinner the other night," she said. "The whole family. It's a very unique relationship. All of us, like literally, me and Christina and David and Coco. It's great though."
Maybe Arquette will name his new son "Taco."
Cox didn't say whether her rumored new boyfriend was there. Us Weekly reported that Cox was photographed attending Jennifer Aniston's holiday party with Snow Patrol rocker Johnny McDaid.

The idea sounds compelling: Instead of injecting peptide parts or complete proteins to trigger immune reactions, future vaccines could consist of messenger RNA molecules. Scientists from the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut and the biotech enterprise CureVac GmbH (both from Tübingen, Germany) as well as from a branch of Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut on an island in the Baltic Sea near Greifswald, showed that immunisation with mRNA works thus far in mice, ferrets and pigs. The corresponding study was published online on 25 November by Nature Biotechnology. Lead author Lothar Stitz from Greifwald and colleagues report that the resulting immune responses were similar or even stronger than those provoked by commercially available vaccines.
Producing conventional vaccines is a time-consuming process. If Stitz' approach also works in humans, flu vaccines could be designed and made within weeks instead of months. Hence, pandemics could be brought under control much more easily. What is more, mRNA vaccines in general are characterised by superior stabilities at high temperatures and by improved efficacy in young and old mice. These features could make a difference as it is mostly the elderly and children who suffer most from flu casualties.
The results strengthen German Curevac GmbH, the manufacturer of mRNA-coded antigens. Only in September, the biotech set a German record by closing the biggest financing round of a German biotech ever (€80m).

I have to confess...school field trips are not my favorite. I have daughters in 5th and 3rd grade and every year I try to attend at least one trip for each girl. Some of them can be, well....painful. Parents, I know I am not alone, here. The first trip this fall was with my 5th grader. "What's the trip, Anna...what are we going to do?" I asked. "The Keystone Science School is coming and we are going to spend the whole day outside looking at rocks," she replied. Well, that sounds like a lot of time to look at rocks. I was not as enthusiastic as I wanted to be. We took the bus (ugh!) to Breckenridge and ended up at French Gulch. We did, indeed, spend the entire day looking at rocks. The teacher from the science school created games where the kids made movements with their bodies that illustrated changes in the earth that create rock formations. Then the kids looked for rocks that may have been formed by these changes. They drew sketches of the mountains and identified geographical landmarks in their own sketches. I was captivated. The kids not only memorized the terms and could identify them in the landscape, but they retained the very sophisticated (in my mind) scientific information. Several months later, my 3rd grader had homework on natural disasters. She asked us in the car about what caused a certain type of calamity. I started to say, "Ask your dad" when my 5th grader piped in and regurgitated the information from the field trip in an understandable fashion to her 8-year-old sister. Wow! It was then that I fully understood the benefit that the Keystone Science School brings to our students and our community. I hope you will join me in supporting their effort to raise enough money to continue this important work. Please go to www.keystone.org to contribute to this campaign to help our students learn to love science.

Bridges And Powerlines is a pop band based in New York. Theyreleased their first, self-titled, EP in 2006, and since then have put out acouple of full-length CDs. Their new EP, Better,contains all original songs, with all four band members sharing writing credits.Usually CDs order their songs so that the strongest tracks are first. Not sohere. This EP, for the most part, actually gets better as it goes along (withmy favorites being the third, fourth and sixth tracks). The common thread seemsto a hopeful attitude, with these songs having a positive stance on getting throughthe tough times. The songs on this EP are named after neighborhoods inBrooklyn.
Better openswith �Bushwick,� a decent power pop song, with rough male vocals mixed with sweeter backing vocals. This song has a great energy, and kind of a positivevibe with the eager, exuberant repetition of �We find a new way.� It�s asong of getting through and moving on, with lines like �Don�t cry/We might see tomorrow if we try/We might be the ones whonever die/Leave this space behind and go outside.�
�Park Slope� starts with its protagonist in a hospitalbed, with the world at war. This one has a positive aspect too, as he sings, �Love tends my wounds.� And then, thoughhe admits he�s broken, he sings, �Whenit�s over, we�ll see mountains/We�ll see forests when it�s over.�
It�s the third track, �Williamsburg,� that really gets meinterested in this band. It�s a great song, partially because of its wonderfulbuild. And it has these excellent catchy touches on keys. I just love the feelof this one. This is when pop is at its best. And then it�s not afraid ofditching that good comfortable groove for a bit, to go into a differentsection, with a stronger presence on drums. This song really draws me in. �Whyclose my eyes, sleep the night away when I have you.�
As good as that song is, �East New York� is actually evenbetter, and much more interesting. The vocals start at the fore, over a steadybeat that slowly creeps up. The album�s title comes from this song�s openinglines: �Better/I�m doing better/I�m doingbetter/�Cause I�m not around/Braver with someone less clever/I read old lettersto somebody else.� This track has reallynice vocals, both the lead and backing vocals. There is something of a sweetinnocence to the feel of this song � �AndI was young/And I was wrong.� The repetition of those lines seems as a wayof letting go, as when you repeat something enough it tends to lose meaning.This is a wonderful song.
�Greenpoint� begins with drums before the vocals andother instruments come in. �We�ve goneand lost control/Now we�re just another set of separate souls/So come in, andtake my shoulder/And release each other.� This becomes more of a rock songwhen the guitar takes over. It�s like the guitar is acting as a voice, tellinganother part of the tale, a brief part, for the guitar subsides again.
�Red Hook� features some interesting vocal work, particularlythe play between lead and backing vocals near the beginning. This song isactually quite pretty at times. But it�s the keyboard work I love most � it�snothing extravagant or ostentatious or anything � but the simple feel of it isquite effective.

SANTA CLARA -- If Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is appointed UC president on Thursday, Californians will be getting more than just a big-name politician who has wrangled unwieldy bureaucracies and responded to natural disasters, supporters say.
Those who have known Napolitano since her undergraduate days at Santa Clara University note that she has been far more involved in university affairs than her résumé suggests. They say the state will gain a forward-thinking leader who can help the prized system find its way in a new economic reality.
Her record as governor of Arizona reveals a concern to expand higher education and make it more accessible, even when money was scarce.
"I think people are going to be surprised," said Eric Hanson, a political-science professor at Santa Clara University who stayed in touch with Napolitano since teaching her in the late 1970s.
University of California officials announced Friday that they tapped Napolitano, 55, to replace Mark Yudof, who announced in January he would step down after five years. Apart from a statement acknowledging she was a "nontraditional candidate," the secretary won't comment until after UC regents vote on her appointment Thursday, university officials said.
Already, some UC faculty members and students have voiced their skepticism about the choice -- or what they called the secretive process behind it. A Monday editorial in UCLA's Daily Bruin has demanded UC explain "how they picked an individual with no experience in California politics and no familiarity with its public universities."
Others wonder if Napolitano will support the university's public mission and worry its leaders will want to capitalize on her ties to the defense industry.
"The real concern isn't so much what she doesn't know. It's what she does know," said Bob Meister, president of the Council of UC Faculty Associations and a professor at UC Santa Cruz.
Napolitano's association with the deportation of illegal immigrants by Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been another source of controversy. A group of students and alumni announced Wednesday they would demonstrate against the nomination on Thursday.
But the people who have known and followed Napolitano over the years said they have seen her commitment to higher education. She has visited her alma mater dozens of times since her classmates elected her Santa Clara's first female valedictorian in 1979, often advising political-science professors informally on what today's students need to know about government and international affairs, Hanson said.
"Her emphasis on knowing the international context for American policy has been very, very strong," he said.
Even as an undergraduate, she was a leader who stressed the importance of education, said classmate Elise Thurau, now legislative director for state Sen. Fran Pavley, D-Calabasas.
"She may not have worked in the academic world before, but she is one of those people that whatever you put into her hands, she'll do with all her might," Thurau said.
And just as Napolitano is poised to leap from the federal government to academia, she has argued for a better flow of talent and knowledge between the two worlds. In speeches at UC Berkeley, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and other top universities, the secretary has urged students -- particularly in science and technology fields -- to consider a stint in public service.
"We need technologists who understand policymaking," Napolitano told UC Berkeley students in 2011. "We need technologically savvy people to come work with us. This is an area where we have our greatest challenge and need. We're dealing with multiple risks at the same time."
In the same year, she told MIT students: "We need a model where there is more scientific knowledge deployed across government, and more knowledge of government and public policy in our science and engineering communities. ... It should not be unusual for a top scientist to take a leave from academia or the private sector and spend a couple of years in government working on solving important technological problems."
As the twice-elected governor of Arizona, Napolitano also voiced strong opinions about the need to make the state's universities accessible to its diverse population. She called for a doubling of bachelor's degrees issued by 2020, a fixed, four-year tuition rate -- an idea that has been floated for the University of California -- and tuition waivers for students with good grades, even as her state faced a budget deficit.
In 2008, she championed a $1 billion university construction and renovation, though some Arizona lawmakers were skeptical of borrowing the money.
"This is the kind of thing that differentiates a great state from a mediocre state," Napolitano told the Legislature. "A great state takes on a challenge, does it in the right way."
Napolitano also increased the higher-education budget in 2006 to expand the capacity of the state's university systems, shore up financial aid, and give raises to faculty members to slow the "brain drain," the student newspaper at the University of Arizona reported.
A prominent UC faculty member who was consulted in the search process said Napolitano stood out because of her experiences in government administration. She "has demonstrated an outstanding ability to deal with complex organizations under demanding circumstances," said Robert Powell, chairman of UC's systemwide faculty senate.
As Napolitano's star rose, her classmates at Santa Clara have followed her speeches and news coverage from afar, occasionally seeing her when she visited campus. Some former college campus newspaper colleagues said she seems much the same person as she was back then: bright, thoughtful and curious, yet down-to-earth and thoroughly likable.
One classmate -- who said he realized as a college student that Napolitano was "probably the smartest person I will ever know" -- said he had once hoped she would be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court. But, he said, this role leading California's famed university system seemed right.
"In many ways this new appointment fits her better," said Paul Totah, who edited the campus newspaper. "She is a fixer."

LETTER: County paid for the schools in Northport
Published: Monday, April 1, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, March 31, 2013 at 11:27 p.m.
Dear Editor: I hope Northport isn't thinking that they will
get the schools the county built and paid for with our money.
If the county is stupid enough to just give them away, we need a whole new board of education.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - UVa-Wise and Edward Walters College split a pair of one-run games on Sunday. The host Tigers took game one 7-6 on a walk off single by Neil Martino before the Cavaliers (3-3) erased a seven run deficit to claim a 10-9 victory in the series finale.
Edward Walters' Travonne Fuller belted a grand slam in the bottom of the first inning in the day's opening game to cap off a six run frame. UVa-Wise would play catch-up for the remainder of the game. The visitors scored a run in the top of the first and added a single run in the top of the second to cut the lead to four at 6-2.
Neither school would score again until the seventh inning when the Cavs mounted a four run rally. In the inning, Tommy Meier led off the inning with a double, his fourth hit of the game. Following a Matt Murphy walk and a Tyler Hutson fly out, Steven Klaiber walked to load the bases for Michael McCollum. McCollum lined a two RBI double. One batter later, Kirk Jennings produced a ground out RBI to cut the lead to one at 6-5. Senior Brian King stood as the last hope for UVa-Wise when he ripped a two-out, RBI single plating the game-tying run.
The comeback would be short lived for the Cavs as Neil Martino drove home the winning run with a bases loaded single. Martino's hit guaranteed the Tigers of the series win; Edward Walters swept the series opening double header on Saturday.
Similar to game one, UVa-Wise found itself in an early run deficit. The Tigers broke open the game with six, first run innings and added a seventh run in the second to lead 7-1 entering the third frame. In the third inning, the two sides traded a pair of runs as Hylton and McCollum had RBI hits for the Cavs and Martino had a two RBI single for the Tigers.
The Cavs would score for a second consecutive inning in the fourth on an RBI ground out by Chaz Hall to cut the lead to five. Two innings later, UVa-Wise would have its highest scoring inning of the season to take the lead. The Cavs would strike for three hits and take advantage of two walks, a hit by pitch, and an error to push across six runs. Hylton delivered the big blow as he connected for a three RBI single to tie the game. UVa-Wise would eventually take the lead on an error allowing Brandon Fletcher to score, Fletcher entered the game to pinch run for Hylton.
Freshman Jake Huff entered the game with a one run lead and the right hander retired all six batters he faced, three by strike out, to earn his first collegiate save. Huff's performance finished off four scoreless innings of work by the UVa-Wise bullpen. Danny Bates tossed a scoreless inning with one strikeout prior to Cody Jewell throwing a scoreless frame to notch his first career win. In total, the bullpen struck out four, allowed one walk, and did not allow a hit in the four scoreless innings.
Meier would finish game two with two hits to run his total for the day to six. Following the double header the senior catcher is hitting .577 through the season's first six games.
Head Coach Hank Banner's UVa-Wise club will return to play on Tuesday when the team travels to NCAA Division II member Lincoln Memorial University for a 2:00 p.m. start.

CONWAY, Ark. – Alyssa Miller scored her first goal of the season, but the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi women's soccer team suffered a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Central Arkansas on Friday night. It marked the third time in as many conference games that the Islanders (1-8-0, 0-3-0 Southland) have been on the wrong side of a one-goal game.
Audrey Baldwin made six saves for A&M-Corpus Christi, playing the full 90 minutes in a losing effort. Lyndzey Goff collected the win for the Bears, coming in for the second half and turning aside the only shot she faced, a Meghan Cordero offering in the 48th minute.
"I'm really proud of the team tonight," head coach Shanna Caldwell said. "We came out from the opening whistle and looked to attack. It's a tough loss because we put ourselves out there and left it on the field and just couldn't get the equalizer even though we had a relentless attack.
"Miller was very composed in front of the goal off a nice ball from Hannah [Joseph]," she added. "She picked her head up and slotted the ball home. This is a special team that wont quit – we will keep fighting in every game, and get stronger every game."
The Bears opened the scoring in the 13th minute, with Kristin Pollard tallying her first goal of the season. Brooke Ballard worked the ball to Pollard, and the senior put the ball past Baldwin off a deflection to make it 1-0 in favor of the Bears at the 12:59 mark.
But the Islanders wouldn't let the lead last long, as Miller notched the equalizer in the 34th minute. Hannah Joseph fed the ball to Miller in front of the net, and the junior put it past keeper Kaitlyn Keith for a 1-1 game at 33:39.
The score remained that way through halftime, and in the second half, the two teams came out even, keeping the count at 1-1 into the 75th. That's when Ballard came through with some heroics of her own, notching her fourth goal of the season off a rebound at 74:19.
The visitors came close to getting the equalizer in the 81st minute, as Becca Chance's shot was cleared off the line at the last possible second by the UCA defenders. But Ballard's goal would matriculate into the game winner, as the Islanders could not push across a score in the final 15 minutes.
The Islanders' road trip continues with a Sunday contest in Tulsa against Oral Roberts. The Golden Eagles are out to a strong start this season with a 7-2-0 overall mark and a 2-0-0 record in the league following a weekend in which they defeated conference favorites Stephen F. Austin and Lamar. ORU did not play on Friday night.
