Rewind: 'America's Got Talent' and 'Entourage' Finales, 'Up All Night' Premiere
Endings and beginnings make up this week's Speakeasy Rewind, a look at the week's TV highlights and lowlights.
The greatest moment of the week was the crowning of the winner of this season's "America's Got Talent." Why? Because this win is exactly what the show is all about. A hidden, undiscovered gem of a talent from a guy who appears to have so much heart: Landau Eugene Murphy Jr., who washes — or shall we say washed — cars for a living. He lived a life with a voice that could stand up to Patti LaBelle, as it did when he sang with her during the finale. Hearing his name called was emotional and moving, and if there were any dry eyes in that audience, it would be a shocker.
A great lesson was learned twice this week in TV: never turn off the set until the show is truly over. A lot happened in the last few moments of two finales.
The summer finale of "The Closer" stayed true to form with previous episodes this season. Shootouts and shootings and a heart-pounding near-shooting of Brenda, which ended in the suspect's own suicide. That was a moment. And her barefoot apprehension of a bad guy was pretty cool too. But the real gasper of the episode was in the final minutes, as the division is celebrating the dismissal of charges that have hung over Brenda, her career, and the department all season. But wait…the lawyer who was coming after her for one wrongful death charge, has an arsenal of files spanning her career and he vows to dedicate his life to taking her down, clearly armed by the division's mole. He's filed a federal case against her. "Do you have some kind of personal vendetta against me," she asks. He tells her no. "I'm the conscience of the justice system…which makes me nearly a perfect stranger." Brenda is left shocked and shaking like a leaf. The rest of us were left with our jaws dropped.
"Entourage" ended its run in the same way its early seasons played out. Smart, sharp and witty, not as a series of bad one-liners and fake chuckles that had emerged in later shows. Just when we thought that all was well and done and that Vince was getting married, Eric was with Sloan and Ari had cashed it in at the studio choosing his wife over agenting, well the studio head sang. But it wasn't until the credits rolled that the tidy little bow was untied. If you kept the TV on long enough you saw Ari soaking in the sea air and sun of Italy when he got a phone call offering him the job of a lifetime – the head of the studio he'd once wanted to work at. He'd have the chance to run it, said the current CEO. "You want to know what heaven really is, try being God." And that's a cliffhanger we'll never have resolved…unless there's a movie?
It wasn't just endings that captured some Rewind attention. There were a couple of funny lines in premieres as well.
"Survivor, South Pacific" hit the airwaves and while it is off to a mediocre start, there was a great line after the first immunity challenge that had to trigger chuckles across America. Semhar insisted she should be one of the coconut throwers, but couldn't land one in the basket and lost the challenge for the team. She admits that she is "sort of upset" she couldn't cut it, to which her furious teammate Jim replies, "Sort of upset is when you run out of milk!"
"Up All Night" premiered and while it has potential, it wasn't as laugh-out-loud funny as it should have been considering its cast. But one line warrants a Rewind mention. Her first day back from maternity leave, Christina Applegate's character Regan is producing a show on cleanses for her boss and friend and star of the talk show Ava, played by Maya Rudolph. They take one sip and nearly choke, prompting Regan to say, "I always wondered what a mug of butt tastes like, now I know." The trio works well together so I wouldn't cancel the DVR'ing of this show just yet.
That's Speakeasy's Rewind for the week ending September 16.

Sissy called and invited me to a "restorative yoga" class today and because I am in serious need of restoration, off I went.
Then class began and I forgot all about the duffle bag man and I entered blissdom.*
Let me tell you about restorative yoga people. There are eye masks, there are head rubbins, there are cozy blankets to be tucked into. There is BLISS.
Also, I really want a mohawk now but that might be a little too Jennifer Jason Leigh in Single White Female.
*And I didn't even have to smoke anything before class. Not that I would ever do such a thing.

NTT, Honda, Develop New Onboard Infotainment System
(The information contained in this page is applicable in Japan only)
| Tokyo, October 16, 2001 --- Nippon Telegram and Telephone Corporation (NTT) and Honda R&D Co., Ltd. today announced that they have developed a "Next-generation Onboard Infotainment System" that allows transmission and reception of telephone calls and e-mail and other information to and from vehicles while driving, without taking one's hands off the steering wheel.
NTT and Honda R&D have been collaborating with each other on this "Vehicle-network telecommunications system" since last November, seeking to create a more user-friendly system for use while driving, based on the latest technologies developed exclusively by the two companies.
NTT's state-of-the-art network and human interface technologies, and Honda R&D's advanced onboard infotainment technology are at the heart of the new system, which aims to give the driver and passengers access to real-time information anytime, anywhere.
The detailed features of the system are as follows:
To support these services, NTT and Honda R&D have also developed the following technologies:

Senators rally past SeaWolves
The Erie SeaWolves were red-hot when they left for the New England area last week.
After a disappointing 2-4 road trip, Erie let go of two leads Tuesday night in another frustrating loss resulting in a closed-door team meeting with manager Lance Parrish after the game.
Matt Skole ripped a two-run single in the seventh inning to complete a second comeback as Harrisburg defeated Erie 6-4 in front of 2,571 fans at Jerry Uht Park.
"It was just a reminder on where we need to have our focus," said Parrish about the meeting. "It was about things we need to do to be successful and reminder that part of this game is to execute when we get in situations. The guys that end up moving on and moving up are the guys that are able to put those situations out of their mind and do their job. It was a little friendly reminder for everyone of what is expected of them."
SeaWolves starting pitcher Jeff Ferrell was tough through five innings, allowing just three base hits and retiring 12 in a row at one point. Ferrell ran into some trouble in the sixth inning as Adrian Sanchez led off with a base hit and Michael Taylor drew a walk. Caleb Ramsey followed with a base hit to load the bases before Cutter Dykstra walked to bring in a run and cut the Erie lead to 3-1.
Guido Knudson entered to strike out two straight batters before Jason Martinson doubled to right field to score two runs and tie the game at 3-3.
The SeaWolves (28-34) responded immediately in the bottom of the sixth inning as Aaron Westlake walked and Dean Green and Dixon Machado each singled to load the bases. Erie nearly missed the opportunity as Jamie Johnson flew out and Jason Krizan struck out, but Devon Travis, the No. 2 prospect in the Detroit Tigers organization according to MLB.com, drew a walk as the SeaWolves retook the lead 4-3.
The Erie bullpen struggled to hold that lead in the seventh. The Senators loaded the bases with two walks and a base hit before Skole came through on the first pitch he saw from new pitcher Bryan Augenstein. Skole's single gave Harrisburg a 5-4 lead and the Senators added a run in the eighth as Sanchez beat out a two-out infield single to drive in Martinson.
Erie had one final chance in the ninth inning with two outs as Ramon Cabrera walked and Corey Jones recorded his third hit, but Westlake grounded out to end the game.
"I kind of thought we hit our stride and were playing the way we are capable of," said Parrish about the team before the trip to the New England area. "For all intents and purposes we are still doing some things well. It's just that we are doing some things not so well and it's costing us ballgames. In order for us to win games we need to execute better and make pitches when we have to and get big hits. We aren't doing that right now and it's very frustrating. We are hoping we can turn things around and do what we are capable of doing."
The two teams will continue the three-game series today at 7:05 p.m. in a special Buck Night to make up for a rained out Buck Night from earlier this season.
- Notes: The SeaWolves walked five batters on Tuesday, three of which scored. ... Erie starting pitcher Kyle Ryan was named Eastern League pitcher of the week this past week after tossing a six-hit shutout in New Hampshire.

Educating Tejendra
By Lorenza Bacino
Dr Tejendra Pherali's journey to gaining the vital education he passionately craved has been a formidable ascent in every way imaginable.
His earliest memory of school is climbing for one-and-a-half hours up a mountain each day to a dusty village classroom furnished with long wooden benches. He had a piece of slate to write on and a small stick of chalk. The class was made up of older children too – those who'd failed repeatedly and been held back. There were no books until halfway through the year when one book containing Nepali language and some numbers appeared. There was nothing to eat all day. It wasn't done to bring food from home.
Today Pherali is Senior Lecturer and Program Leader of the Master's in Education and International Development at the prestigious Institute of Education in London. The trajectory of his appointment can be traced back to a scholarship he was awarded at Sydney in 2004 to study a Master of Education in Research Methodology.
He studied at Sydney after answering an advertisement in a Nepali newspaper by the Australian embassy inviting applications for AusAID-funded university courses. Pherali was offered a place out of hundreds of applications and after a rigorous selection process. He chose the University of Sydney because it was "the oldest and the best".
The degree instilled an understanding of academic and critical perspectives which has become a platform for the new role he started in September in London, where he is responsible for the welfare and academic achievement of about 100 students from all over the world.
"It's a new and exciting challenge," he says. "I've always wanted to make my passion my profession. The journey of my life relates to where I belong – in a rural village in Nepal – and now my research is all about educating people in the developing world. I'm feeling inspired and I know I can give back more to my country and my society."
Pherali's journey has been full of practical and cultural hurdles that most Westerners would not even imagine, let alone have to deal with. At the age of 11 he left home to go to a different school even further away. He lived with his brother and his wife but felt terribly unwelcome.
"It hurts to think back to that time," he says quietly. "They were not rich and didn't give me much food. I had no bed to sleep on either and had to go to a friend's another half hour walk away to sleep in a corner. I cannot explain why, and at the time it wasn't painful and I just got on with it. I carried my books everywhere, and studied on the move."
Coming from a high social class meant his father was able to read and write at a time when the literacy rate in Nepal was less than 2 percent. This was crucial and real inspiration. "I benefited from my social class and my father raised me to believe he could achieve."
After "mucking up" his education and living pretty much hand-to-mouth for a couple of years, he managed to enrol at the university in Kathmandu. For about six years, Pherali worked 13 hours a day, tutoring children and helping with schoolwork to pay for food and accommodation. He slept about five hours a night during that time. The perseverance paid off and he came top of his year.
In 2004 he won his scholarship to Sydney. "It was a huge educational and culture shock as I was trained very differently in Nepal," Pherali says. "Sanskrit teaching says you learn from a guru – that's the only way. The focus is on face-to-face time and if the students don't do well, it's because the teachers didn't teach well.
"So I was lost when I arrived at the University of Sydney. I didn't know what was expected of me and if you don't know what support you need, having support doesn't make sense. I lost confidence and was equating my lack of English with my lack of knowledge."
His master's degree supervisor, Dr Rachel Wilson, recognised this difficulty and rescued him. "I was blocked and scared to arrange a meeting with her, which was what I should have been doing. She helped me to unlock my ideas and even helped me access relevant journals from the library to help with my dissertation."
Wilson says: "The thing that made Tejendra shine was the fact that by the time he arrived in Sydney, he'd already overcome many educational hurdles – like walking miles barefoot to school, through swollen rivers, etc. This seemed to have contributed to his resilience. I knew at once that he was very passionate about educating himself and others. While he had a lot to adjust to as he started his master's degree, his positive attitude and the fact that he did not falter at challenges and failures always saw him through.
By the time he arrived in Sydney, Tejendra had already overcome many educational hurdles – like walking miles barefoot to school, through swollen rivers. This contributed to his resilience.
"Did you know that when he came to study he brought his pregnant wife? She was very ill for her whole pregnancy. Tejendra cared for her and completed his studies, finishing his dissertation while celebrating the birth of his son, Ajay. I still keep Ajay's photo on my notice board; if students spot it and enquire I can tell them the story. I am very proud of how far Tejendra has gone."
On returning to Nepal, Tejendra used the skills he'd acquired at Sydney to benefit his own country. "What I learned at Sydney was academic writing and critical analysis. I took all that back with me and I designed a course on academic writing for Nepali students going to study in English-speaking countries."
The course became hugely popular and has helped hundreds of students to understand the academic expectations of a Western education system, including how to reference properly, how to write objectively and how to structure an argument.
At the time of Pherali's return, Nepal was coming out of a decade-long conflict. His research methodology skills came in handy too, as he managed a country-wide project on the role of young people in peace-building and community decision-making for the international organisation, Search for Common Ground.
"This was ground-breaking stuff in my country" Pherali says. "It was a whole new way of relating theoretical knowledge about research with research projects. I'd take students to collect data and we'd discuss how to make sense of it all. It was all about learning through research."
It's a long way from Pherali's early learning experiences, when he would have to throw his books and clothes across a swollen river during the monsoon season, then wade through the water to get to school. All the kids in the mountains knew how and where to cross safely to end up exactly where they needed to be on the other side. "You had to calculate this precisely, otherwise you'd end up being smashed against the rocks by the current," Pherali says. "That nearly happened to me one day when I was showing off, and one of the older boys dragged me out by my hair and saved my life."
Today, Pherali has a PhD from Liverpool's John Moores University under his belt, and from there he moved to the Institute of Education in London. Nevertheless, he claims that his eight-year-old son has read more books than he has. He insists, however, that his experience of education in Nepal was neither meagre nor miserable.
"What we had were strong values and a strong sense of learning," he says. "Knowledge becomes obsolete, but if kids have a good attitude to cope with new knowledge, I think that is what matters. How much you know ceases to matter as information can be accessed so easily these days. What can't be accessed so easily is innovation and creativity and that is what we got from our family, from our village."

The memorial statuary group of the Lorusso family installed recently at the Barnstable Historical Society's HQ on Route 6A drew a crowd to the Barnstable Old King's Highway Historic District Committee meeting July 24.
According to draft minutes, the Society's president, Marilyn Fuller, apologized for not obtaining approval from the OKH before erecting the statue. The Society's Rich French said there was an unexpectedly short time for delivery this summer, and that it came with a six-ton granite slab that had not been anticipated. The Society had thought the installation would sit on the ground.
The Society intends to landscape the area, but OKH member Carrie Bearse commented that her committee needs to consider whether the structure itself is appropriate. For herself, she said, the materials are appropriate but the setting is not.
Public comment was divided at the meeting, with some saying the Lorusso family, noted for its many charitable contributions, will become part of the town's ongoing history. Others said they liked the statue but wished that it could be relocated.
The committee's discussion will continue at its meeting on Aug. 14 at 6:30 p.m. in the West Barnstable Community Building. Also on the agenda are a community bulletin board sought by the Barnstable Village Business Association and the Barnstable Market, the demolition of a house at 52 George Street and a plan to install 18 south-facing solar panels on a roof at 88 Hilliard's Hayway.

Location: Foreign Animal Disease Research
2012 Annual Report
During FY 2012, the analysis of bovine leukocyte antigens (BoLA) Class I expression in 81 Holstein cattle from Nordic Farm, a UVM Dairy Center of Excellence Research herd, has identified 9 dominant alleles that are expressed in 23 to 44 percent of animals tested. Expression of these alleles has been confirmed by cloning and sequenceing of BoLA class I genes in 17 animals. Overall 99 percent of animals tested are positive for at least one of these alleles. Further patterns of allelic expression are being identified in individual animals contributing to our understanding of class I gene expression. We have also completed class I expression typing for 15 bovine primary fibroblast cell lines and 4 bovine immortalized epithelial cell lines. We have synthesized 6 class I molecules and an additional 5 molecules are in the pipeline for synthesis. At least 4 of these BoLA class I molecules will be used in peptide binding and cytotoxic lymphocyte (CTL) response assays. This panel of 11 BoLA class I molecules will be made available as a resource to other scientists.
We have successfully transferred reagents and technologies and adapted new technologies for the development of key tools to be used in immune response assays. Specifically we have transferred the gene constructs and applied methods for recombinant protein expression of a panel of bovine cytokines using an adenovirus expression system. We have demonstrated biological activity of these cytokines and established a pipeline for production of monoclonal antibodies that recognize these lymphocyte markers.
During FY 2012 the recombinant replication defective adenoviral vector expression systems have been transferred from ARS, PIADC to University of Vermont. MHC/peptide binding analysis has been transferred from the collaborators at University of Copenhagen to University of Vermont.
No publications have been produced during FY 2012.

The Herpevac Trial for Women
Updated January 5, 2012
The Herpevac trial for women is a clinical study investigating a vaccine to protect women against genital herpes disease. The trial, which began in 2002 and concluded in 2010, was conducted at 50 sites in the United States and Canada and was sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals in cooperation with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the NIH. The study chair is Robert Belshe, M.D., director of the Center for Vaccine Development at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine in Missouri.
The Herpevac Trial for Women involved 8,323 women ages 18-30. At the time of their enrollment, the study participants were free of the two common types of herpes simplex viruses (HSV): HSV-1, the primary cause of cold sores and an increasing cause of genital herpes, and HSV-2, the common cause of genital herpes. Approximately 31,000 women were screened in order to identify eligible participants.
The study was a randomized, double-blind, controlled Phase III clinical trial. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either the investigational herpes vaccine or a version of Havrix, an FDA-approved, licensed vaccine to protect against hepatitis A. This was done to give all participants an opportunity to be protected against either genital herpes or hepatitis A. GSK developed the candidate herpes vaccine and is also the manufacturer of Havrix.
The investigational herpes vaccine is a subunit vaccine containing a glycoprotein from HSV along with an adjuvant to boost immune response. The Havrix vaccine administered to study participants was provided at a lower dose and smaller volume than it is routinely provided in medical practice. This was done to ensure that the vaccine could be administered in the same number of doses as the candidate herpes vaccine. Each volunteer was vaccinated at the beginning of the study and again after one month and six months following the first injection. The participants were followed for 20 months after the initial injection and evaluated for HSV infection and genital herpes disease. Throughout the study, participants were regularly counseled on how to reduce their risk of acquiring HSV.
The trial was successfully conducted according to protocol and met statistical targets in terms of enrollment and participant follow up. The vaccine proved to be well-tolerated and its safety profile was similar to that observed in previous trials. According to the initial data analysis publicly announced in September 2010, the trial produced a point estimate of overall vaccine effectiveness of 20 percent with a confidence interval that included zero. In other words, the vaccine was not effective at preventing genital herpes disease among the study population of women. At that time, study collaborators stated that evaluation of the trial data would continue and that a more detailed analysis would be provided at a later time.
A subsequent, more detailed analysis published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Jan. 5, 2012, found that the investigational vaccine provided some protection against HSV-1, although it did not protect against HSV-2. Specifically, there were 58 percent fewer cases of genital herpes caused by HSV-1 and 35 percent fewer HSV-1 infections among women who received the investigational vaccine, compared to those who received the control vaccine. The recent analysis also found that among women enrolled in the control group, HSV-1 caused more cases of genital herpes than HSV-2.
RB Belshe et al. Efficacy results of a trial of a herpes simplex vaccine. New England Journal of Medicine 366(1):26-35 (2012).
The Herpevac Trial for Women produced important scientific information to guide future research toward a vaccine to prevent genital herpes. It also provided emerging data about genital herpes and the changing role of HSV-1 in infection.
An estimated one in four women in the United States has genital herpes, making it one of the most common infectious diseases. HSV, the cause of genital herpes disease, may be transmitted through sexual or other skin-to-skin contact, and can be spread even when the infected individual shows no symptoms. Once in the body, HSV migrates to nerve cells and remains there permanently where it can reactivate to cause painful outbreaks in the infected individual. HSV can cause severe illness in infants born to HSV-infected women, and the virus has been identified as a risk factor for HIV transmission in adults. There is no cure for herpes infection, and there is no vaccine to prevent it.
When the investigational vaccine was tested in two earlier studies involving fewer men and women who did not have genital herpes but whose sexual partners were known to be infected, the candidate vaccine prevented genital herpes disease in more than 70 percent of the female volunteers but had no clear effect in men. Further, the candidate vaccine reduced by roughly 40 percent the risk of developing antibodies to herpes, which are used as an indicator that a person has been infected with HSV. These studies formed the basis for conducting the larger Herpevac study. Results of these two earlier studies were published in November 2002 in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Reference: LR Stanberry et al. Glycoprotein-D-adjuvant vaccine to prevent genital herpes. New England Journal of Medicine 347(21):1652-1661 (2002).
Though it failed to reach its primary goal, the Herpevac Trial for Women produced important scientific information to guide future research toward a vaccine to prevent genital herpes. The researchers suspect that the differences between the 2002 studies and the Herpevac Trial were due to immunologic and behavioral differences in the populations studied, which may have affected participants' protection from HSV-1 and HSV-2.
The trial results also provided emerging data about genital herpes and the changing role of HSV-1 in infection. Although HSV-1 is typically associated with cold sores and HSV-2 with genital lesions, HSV-1 has become a growing cause of genital disease, an observation echoed in this analysis. Among women enrolled in the control group of the Herpevac trial, HSV-1 was found to cause more cases of genital herpes than HSV-2.
Participant safety was closely monitored throughout the trial, both by the study investigators and by a data and safety monitoring board (DSMB). The DSMB is an independent committee composed of clinical research experts, herpes virus experts, and statisticians that provides additional oversight of a clinical study. The DSMB regularly reviews data while a clinical trial is in progress to ensure the safety of participants and that any benefits shown in the study are quickly made available to all participants.
The investigational herpes vaccine used in the trial had been previously tested in more than 7,000 volunteers; results from these studies suggested that it was well-tolerated and safe.
No. The herpes vaccine formulation used in the study did not contain live virus and was incapable of infecting participants with herpes virus. The candidate vaccine contained only a specific fragment of a herpes virus protein to stimulate immune responses.
Yes. Researchers will continue to examine serum samples from the Herpevac study to better understand why the vaccine protected women from genital disease caused by HSV-1, but not HSV-2.

What other changes in the body occur during puberty in boys and girls?
The "growth spurt"
A rapid increase in height, referred to as a growth spurt, usually accompanies puberty. This rapid increase in height typically lasts for two to three years. About 17%-18% of adult height is attained during puberty. Although the increase in height affects both the trunk and the limbs, growth in the limbs usually happens first. The growth spurt characteristically occurs earlier in girls than in boys, with girls having the growth spurt approximately two years prior to boys, on average. In girls, the growth spurt typically precedes the onset of menstruation by about six months.
Bone growth and mineralization
Puberty is accompanied by growth of bones and increases in bone density in both boys and girls. In girls, bone mineralization peaks around the time of the onset of menstrual periods, after the time of peak height velocity (growth spurt). Studies have shown that bone width increases first, followed by bone mineral content, and lastly by bone density. Because of the lag between bone growth and achievement of full bone density, adolescents may be at increased risk for fractures during this time.
Weight changes
Changes in weight and body composition occur in both boys and girls. Adolescent girls develop a greater proportion of body fat than boys, with redistribution of the fat toward the upper and lower portions of the body, leading to a curvier appearance. While boys also have an increase in the growth of body fat, their muscle growth is faster. By the end of puberty, boys have a muscle mass about one and a half times greater than that of comparably sized girls.
Other changes
Maturation of the cardiovascular systems and lungs results in an increased working capacity of these organs, associated with an overall increase in endurance and strength. These changes are more pronounced in boys than in girls.

AGAIN is proud to announce the opening of their new carpet recycling facility in the city of Kent. Our mission is to work closely with the Seattle area carpet industry to help divert as much carpet from the landfills as possible. We are currently collecting post consumer carpets in several ways and would like the opportunity to work with your company in meeting your disposal needs and budget, at the same time diverting your post consumer carpet from the landfill.
In the US, six billion pounds of carpet go to the landfills annually, with one hundred million pounds ending up in King Counties' landfill. Nationwide the northwest leads the way in many ways when it comes to recycling, however we are dead last in recycling carpet and diverting it from the landfills. AGAIN LLC., aims to be a solution for the landfilling of carpet in King County. AGAIN's goal is to process the post consumer carpet into different materials that can be used in a variety of products including new carpet. With a preference to develop local markets and products thereby reducing our carbon footprint.
Drop off at our facility.
This is a good alternative for the independent installer, do it yourselfer and homeowners looking for an alternative to the land fill. The minimum fee for this service is twenty dollars for up to 500 pounds. Four and a half cents additional per pound for anything over 500 pounds.
Spotting a container at your facility or jobsite.
This service will be tailored for the individual facility or jobsite and their needs. The container we use will depend on the amount of space that is available. Short containers up to 48' tractor trailer vans. Our containers have sealed tops. No dumpster roll offs with lids, they leak and we cannot take wet carpet. Tipping fees are four and half cents per pound. Container rental and trucking fees will vary depending on the size of container and location.
Pick up service.
This is a unique service, with this service we come directly to the jobsite and pick up the old carpet. This service will only be offered in certain locations in the beginning. The minimum fee for this service is fifty dollars up to 50 yards, and then an additional dollar per yard for every yard over 50 yards. It's our belief that most end user customers would pay a little extra to do the right thing and recycle their post consumer carpet keeping it out of the landfill. This service has many benefits. It assures to your customer that their carpet is being recycled as they see our trucks picking it up directly from the jobsite. It eliminates the installer from having to bring it back to your facility, cutting down on your waste costs and or it eliminates your installers from having to spend expensive time in the long dump line.
The following carpet will not be accepted;
wet, Asbestos contaminated, painted or extremely soiled.

Warm temps in Beaverhead and Jefferson impact river health
After an extensive study, the Department of Environmental Quality determined the Ruby Valley's lower Beaverhead and upper Jefferson rivers do not meet water quality standards for temperature.
"We went out and looked at the streams and determined they have high temperatures," said Paul Driscoll, DEQ public information officer. "Now all the data we've collected will go out to any interested parties so everyone can address it together."

After several inches of soaking rains fell across most of the Brazos Valley this past weekend, parts of the area saw further improvement from the ongoing drought.
The latest National Drought Monitor was released at 7:30am Thursday and reflected that a small part of the Brazos Valley had been downgraded to a "Moderate Drought" versus the "Severe Drought" that was in place last week.
A Larger Version of This Map Can Be Found Here
Moderate Drought holds the classification of D1 -- the lowest level of drought category there is. Severe Drought is classified as D2.
Areas that have been downgraded include parts of Lee, Burleson, Brazos, Madison, Leon, San Jacinto, Trinity and Montgomery Counties. -- including locations such as Caldwell, Madisonville and Bryan / College Station.
On average, rainfall amounts from last Thursday through Sunday ranged between three to five inches. With it being a steady rain, area grounds were able to soak up much of the water rather than seeing run-off into area lakes, creeks and rivers. Enough rain fell, here and across much of North Texas, to even cause a few creeks to overrun their banks leading to road closures in localized areas for a short period of time early in the week.

There's something inherently nostalgic about restoring an old automobile. The smell of motor oil and grease-stained jeans are enough to give any car enthusiast a trip down memory lane, but a complete, self-produced restoration may be the pinnacle for any man or woman who enjoys a piece of classic American lore. It may be a goal of many, but the reconstruction or rehabilitation of an old automobile takes time, patience and a responsible budget to accomplish. According to Cars Direct, a full-scale project takes nearly 1,000 hours to complete, so car lovers should realize they're in for a large undertaking.
That said, for those entirely dedicated to the cause, listed below are four tips to consider before and during a classic car restoration:
1. Invest for the future: More often than not, an older vehicle is on the market because it is in need of a makeover. There's nothing wrong with settling on a cheaper model, but AOL Autos recommends researching a handful of vehicles before pulling the trigger and placing one in your garage. The resale value post-restoration is something that should be accounted for unless you want to keep the car for yourself. An automobile with higher appreciation value may require a greater initial investment, but a return on your purchase could pay dividends in the end if you choose to sell after the project is completed.
2. Make sure the parts are available: Once you select the vehicle, the next logical step is to see if the missing parts – or the ones that need to be replaced – are available on the resale market. Savvy car owners will likely know how to salvage certain parts if need be, however, most older vehicles need new components to run properly. A quick Google search will yield several options. You can also contact a local repair shop to see if it has industry contacts who can point you in the right direction.
3. Establish a budget: Everyone who attempts to restore a classic car will likely work at their own leisure, but it's important for those watching their spending to have a realistic budget that correlates with the project at hand. A broad schedule may not be a bad idea either in terms of capping your spend because the longer a car sits in your garage, the less money you're making or time you have to enjoy it. Although restoration is a recreational hobby for most, it never hurts to set pragmatic goals and strive to achieving them.
4. Don't be afraid to ask for help: Even the most knowledgeable car aficionados may run into issues here or there, so a simple consultation does not mean defeat. In fact, AOL Cars highly advises those new to restoration to accrue as much information and advice as possible prior to greasing up the skids. An expert's eye can save both time and money down the road.
Do you have experience restoring your own classic car? What tips do you recommend to those embarking on their own car restoration journey?

substitute for bulky wool yarn?
My husband mentioned to me this morning that he needed a hat for work that covers his ears and neck.
So I ran to my computer with my coffee in hand in search of an easy knitted pattern than I could make.
I found the pattern I want to use but after going to every yarn store in my area I could not find the yarn I need. Luckily, I did find the needles I need at the last store I went to.
I'm not sure how to buy wool yarn so I didn't buy any yarn at all.
I have acrylic yarn and was wondering if I used two strands would it equal to what I need?
I would like to make him a hat out of wool one day as well but I don't want to use that scratchy wool. I was thinking along the lines of soft but warm.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I think you probably could do 2 strands together. You could try a swatch with your yarn and see if you get gauge. You might also check at ravelry to see if you can find a similar pattern that would work with the yarn you have. They have more hats than Carter has pills. Oh my, I bet nobody says that anymore.
I was just thinking about making a swatch to see if I came up with the gauge on the pattern! Thanks, will also try Ralvery.
My gauge matches the gauge on the pattern! I haven't used many knitting patterns so this is exciting to me.
Looks like they're stranding the fingering weight together with the bulky stuff for part of the pattern anyway, so if you're planning on doing that part of the pattern, you'll actually be working three strands for part of it if you double up on the main yarn. But you should be able to find a bulky kind of SOMETHING that will give you the right gauge without having to hold 2 strands.
Depending on what kind of work your husband does, you might want to avoid mohair anyway, unless the Lamb's Pride is machine washable. Cascade 128 Superwash would probably do the job, and it's close to the same yardage/weight. Plymouth makes a chunky version of Encore too, but I'm not sure you could get the gauge they specify with that. In my memory, it's a little thinner. But you could probably get away with either one anyway. The designer says it stretches for days, so if it's a little smaller than the given dimensions it probably doesn't matter.
He is a local truck driver so he is outside just about all day.
I don't know the different types of wool so I thought it was best to leave it there until I got some advice. I would cry if I made a hat and washed it and it shrank because I bought the wrong yarn.
Doesn't super wash shrink when washed? Or are the ones that don't say super washed shrink when washed and used for felting?
There IS a NON-superwash version of Cascade 128 as well, which I've used for THIS hat. It WILL shrink (and felt) in hot water, so make sure which one you're buying before you buy it.
Superwash is treated to be washable (that's why it says 'wash' in its name) and often has to be dried in the dryer or it'll stretch out. I find regular cascade 220 to be scratchier than most acrylics, but I haven't felt the superwash version.
Using 2 strands of worsted can be a little thick for bulky, but as long as you got gauge and it's not too stiff (which makes it less soft sometimes) then you're fine.
I'm with you on the regular Cascade 220, but I've used the 220 superwash hand paint and it's different. I don't know if the treatment they give it to make it washable does it or what, but it's not as scratchy. The Cascade 128 superwash was fantastic, like the Bon Ami of yarn... (hasn't scratched yet... oh did I just tell on MYself!)
Thanks everyone. I am working the pattern now. Although, I have to rip it all out and start over because I missed the kfb at the end of the rows!
It doesn't look like it will be stiff at all because it is soft as I am making it. I'm just going to stick to my 2 strands for now.
I am hoping to finish it tonight so he can wear it to work tomorrow even through I am a slow knitter!
I will try to post a pic when I am done.

Attorneys says Jindal should testify in Common Core caseUPDATED 5:27 PM CDT Aug 12, 2014
The request was argued in court, in response to a lawsuit filed by parents and teachers who support Common Core and accuse the governor of violating the Louisiana Constitution in his actions against the multi-state standards.Video Transcript
BACK TO SCHOOL... THE DEBATE OVER COMMON CORE IS HEATING UP IN THE STATE CAPITOL. TODAY, A JUDGE HEARD OPENING STATEMENTS FROM ATTORNEYS REPRESENTING PARENTS AND TEACHERS WHO ARE SUING GOVERNOR BOBBY JINDAL. WDSU ANCHOR LATONYA NORTON WAS AT THE HEARING, SHE'S ON YOUR SIDE FROM BATON ROUGE WITH WHY ONE OF THE SIDES WANTS THE GOVERNOR TO TAKE THE STAND. " OPEN ." THE HEARING LASTED A LITTLE MORE THAN AN HOUR AT 19th JUDICIAL DISTICT COURT... AND AFTERWARDS... ATTORNEYS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE COMMON CORE DEBATE PRESENTED THEIR ARGUMENTS AGAIN ... "Yes we want him under oath." ATTORNEY FOR THE PLANTIFFS STEVE KUPPERMAN TOLD JUDGE TODD HERNANDEZ THAT GOVERNOR BOBBY JINDAL IS THE REASON FOR THE LAWSUIT BY TEACHERS, PARENTS, AND OTHER SUPPORTERS OF THE HIGH STANDARDS TESTING... AND THE GOVERNOR SHOULD TAKE THE STAND. "We think we're entitled to have him testify to the facts of this case. He's a party and is his side. His attorney says he doesn't have to testify." "a Sitting governor can not be deposed unless it's a matter that he as eyewitness testimony that can not be obtained otherwise and this isn't a case where eyewitness testimony matters. These are legal issues." ATTORNEY FOR THE GOVERNOR JIMMY FAIRCLOTH SAYS A STATE STATUTE PROHIBITS THE TAKING OF TESTIMONY FROM A SITTING GOVERNOR...AND THERE'S NOT FACTUAL TESTIMONY THAT MATTERS.... ALSO AT ISSUE IS WHETHER THE GOVERNOR OVERSTEPPED AND ACTED ILLEGALLY AND UNCONSTITUTIONALLY IN EXERCISING EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE AND SUSPENDING THE HIGHER STANDANDS PROGRAM... COMMON CORE SUPPORTERS SAY YES. "There is not executive privilege in Louisiana. There is not in a lot of states. There is something called the deliberations privilege, but that stops when a decision is made." "They're wrong. The Governor exercised the power of his office. He'll continue to do so but it's all within the confines of the constitution and that state laws that the legislature passed." ATTORNEY FAIRCLOTH TOLD THE JUDGE THAT A NUMBER OF THE CLAIMS SIMPLY DON'T BELONG IN THE LAWSUIT AND THE PLAINTIFFS HAVE NO "RIGHT OF ACTION" OR LEGAL STANDING...

The Pied Piper of Hamlin, the dancing mania, certain elements of the Crusades, religious wars, the burning of witches, tortures for heresy, and the self-mutilations of Corybantian orgies are somber historic illustrations that "The capacity of the human mind to deceive itself knows no limits." As a minor league or perhaps bush league example of a latter day instance of such tortured confusions and misconceptions the future may well look back on the paranoia provoked by such a simple problem as prophylactic fluoridation to reduce the incidence of dental caries. Exner, aided and abetted by the greater New York Committee Opposed to Fluoridation, symbolizes the testimonial approach which the most convinced zealot may mistake for evidence. This tract illustrates once more that freedom to criticize does not imply license and that righteous indignation, no matter how devout, does not establish accuracy or raise up the light of truth.

Say What!
12 Years A Slave director Steve McQueen reportedly had his big moment at the New York Film Critics Circle awards ruined by a heckler who is said to have yelled out insults as he went up to collect his gong (award).
British director McQueen, who's film has been hotly tipped to sweep the Oscars in March, won the Best Director award for 12 Years A Slave during the award ceremony. The filmmaker had just taken the stage following a passionate introduction from the legendary Harry Belafonte that left him in tears. As he picked up his award, critic Armond White, an editor for New York's City Arts, shouted from his table at the back of the room: "You're an embarrassing doorman and garbage man". F— you. Kiss my ass" according to a Variety reporter seated next to him.
When McQueen ignored the heckle and thanked the critics group for the prestigious award, which has previously been won by John Ford and Woody Allen, White reportedly hissed "pulease".
Controversial critic White had already made his opinion on McQueen's all-star blockbuster known in a scathing review last month, in which he wrote:
"McQueen has made the most unpleasant American movie since William Friedkin's 1973 The Exorcist. That's right, 12 Years a Slave belongs to the torture porn genre with Hostel, The Human Centipede and the Saw franchise but it is being sold (and mistaken) as part of the recent spate of movies that pretend 'a conversation about race.' The only conversation this film inspires would contain howls of discomfort".
The critic has a history of attacking filmmakers and actors though. Back in 2011, he hosted the New York ceremony only to round on stars likes Annette Bening and Michelle Williams while in 2012 he allegedly heckled Robert De Niro and Viola Davis as they were speaking on-stage.

"…By law, the president is required to submit a budget request to Congress for the upcoming fiscal year by the first Monday of February. The only time Obama met the deadline during his presidency was in 2011…" CLICK HERE for the FULL STORY
NOTE from me: I don't get it. I meet my deadlines. I bet you do, too. I don't know if other Presidents likewise blew off this deadline as if they were King (and if they did, shame on them) — but what is the point of a legal deadline if it is disregarded? And by the President of the United States? If a President has no respect for a law…why should others? And, from the ABC story linked above, this is not a one time deal with the President. President Obama has failed before to meet this deadline — in fact, he has only met it once. What do you think?

Carl, my advice is if you don't know how to get a forum started (code, attracting people and establishing members) don't. Not until you know how to. It's one thing to ask for help once in a while, but I see like 4 topics of you pleading for us to help you. Of course we are always ready to help, but if you are going to be starting your own forum, it would be better if you could rely on your own abilities as well.
btw its seoul, pretty offensive to some koreans -__-
sorry if that came out harsh though, it was meant to be constructive.

"I can just imagine how disappointed he must be," coach Louis van Gaal told Dutch media after Strootman was injured in AS Roma's 1-0 defeat at Napoli in Serie A on Sunday. "Kevin was in good form.
"For the national side it is a huge blow. Kevin made a huge contribution to our qualification for the World Cup, he never let us down and now his dreams have died."
Strootman will be sidelined for at least six months, according to Dutch media. He tried to play on after sustaining the injury but was eventually carried off on a stretcher.
The midfielder was also taken off before halftime in Wednesday's 2-0 friendly international defeat by France in Paris after hurting his right knee.
Last year Van Gaal said Strootman, captain Robin van Persie and winger Arjen Robben were three players guaranteed a place in his World Cup squad.
The Dutch have been drawn in Group B with champions Spain, Australia and Chile at the finals.

The RoadLoK isn't like a chunky device that designed to ONLY keep the criminals at bay, it actually LOOKS cool too.
Fits permanently to your front brake caliper and simply stops the bike from moving forwards or backwards.
Not only does it look great, fit great and do a great job, it doubles up as a stupidity detector. If I forget to take it off (lets face it it's always a possibility) my bike won't spit me off in half a wheels turn, it'll just STALL, which means I dont look like a prat and have an expensive repair job in my lap.
Yep, its not cheap, but that one time you forget to remove it means its paid for itself in one swoop.
I just wish I knew they came in loads of colour choices, as if i'd have known they did a blue one, i'd have bought it in blue, simple as that.
The people I bought it from were dead helpful too. They seemed to know what they were talking about, which always helps make a decision and they had stock in the UK so it took about 2 days to arrive.

Located in central Supetar with walking distance to beaches and the ferry, this accommodation is a perfect hub for a Brac vacation.
The view from the terrace is scenic with a clear view of Split from the other side of the strait. The beds are comfortable and not as hard as a lot of beds are in these kind of accomodations. The kitchen, though small, works well to cook in. We cooked one meal a day here for almost two weeks without getting swamped. The host is nice and very helpful and sometimes unexpectedly gave us treats such as fresh lemonade or home baked cookies. We traveled with a 1 1\2 year old, which worked really well here, she had a crib of her own and loved both the host and the house cat!
Villa Nardi is a splendid occassion to see an italian house from inside! Really worth of the price if you travel to understand local culture. It is not a hotel room, nothing like BB standard. For those who have small children it is not good place - house is too big and children are affraid to be alone for night (story of contessa maybe not best advertisment...). It is very convinient location - easy travel to Padova and Venezia by bus, no need to search for parking place :) Big store close to villa. Needs internet ! In this time it is really everyday need ! We will come-back there.
A great apartment well equipped good value for money, with a great view over the marina. This is the fifth time we have been to dives/ cabourg and would definitely stay here again.
The cottage is placed in a scenic surrounding. Even though there are many of them, you hardly recognize the summer houses with their grass roofs in the dunes. The architecture and interior design are nice and appropriate. - We had good luck because our stay was not during the main season, therefore it was quiet all around this week, and we just met two neighbours. The beach is not far away, and it is endless in both directions. - In some details, the cottage and its equipment should be renovated. Mainly the outworn mattresses caused inconvenience, and after our return a slightly bad smell in our clothes and luggage. Furthermore, the kitchen equipment was neither clean nor cutlery complete, therefore we started our holiday with dishwashing and sorting out the stuff we did not want to use for these days. - Nevertheless, it was a great stay, and we enjoyed being there.
Very good situation near the lakes and quite good reception
Apartment was nice, very clean, spacious, quiet even though located on a big street and generally up to standard. Overground and Bus Stops very close, Underground stop can be reached by bus or walking easily. Few small issues (key for one of the windows missing, toilet seat broken, plastic bit of toilet flush falling down, bathroom pipe slightly leaking) but overall this apartment can definitely be recommended. HOWEVER, be aware that the key has to be picked up somewhere else (close to Camden Road Overground Station - so not far from the apartment) and you can't get the keys for the apartment at the apartment itself.
The apartment isn't bad, but it's impossible to stay in 6 persons, max 5.
The clear isn' good. So it's very strategic position in the town.
the apartment is really well placed, right in the centre of Prague; you need just a minute to reach the old town square by walk, passing through one of the most turistic street of the city.
The guys at the reception did a good job, letting us enter our rooms some hours before the check-in time.
The apartment was really nice and well furnished, with everything necessary (i think more than necessary!!) for the trip: tiny but complete kitchen, living room with big tv, internet connection and so on...
We just had some troubles to sleep at night dued to some drunk hooligans lodged in our building that passed whole nights ringing every door bell in the palace, shouting, slamming doors and elevator cabin, from 4 to 6 a.m.; unfortunately non-smart people is everywhere...but this has nothing to do with the accomodation that has been really comfortable.
Nice little house with everything you need. There's a sandbeach nearby, you can walk to it in 5 minutes. With the cab or bus it's easy to go to the city of Zadar. The host was very sweet and willing to arrange anything. We had a good time!
I chose the appartment because of low price and good location. I payed the amount of 160€ for 3 nights which was on the receipt I got from windu. After that I realized that the flat was sold by a company called interhome which sent me a second receipt for a cleaning few of 58€. So the inital low price increased by 35%.
I could have seen this clicking on an extra button in the description in advance. Very poor strategy to make money, sorry guys....
The flat itself was very good, clean and recomendable.

Rally for Gaza: Stop the bombing, stop the killing
The death toll from Israel's assault on Gaza continues to climb. Since July 7, more than 1,600 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 9,000 injured, in one of the deadliest sustained campaigns against Palestinians in recent history. We call on the Australian government to: condemn Israel's attack on Gaza and impose diplomatic and trade sanctions on Israel. We call for support for the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign. Murray St Mall, Perth.

We all hope we never have to call the fire department for help. But when we do, like our family did this past week, it's great to know that they will answer the call quickly, efficiently, and professionally. We were so impressed with the firemen from our closest station, Station No. 32, when they answered our call late on Thursday night. They took charge of the situation and acted quickly to resolve it. The next day they checked in to ensure that things were still OK.
It is extremely important to fund our fire department so that when you need them like our family did, they are there for your family. I hope you will join us in voting "yes" on Proposition 1 this Aug. 7. If this proposition doesn't pass, at least one of our community's fire houses will close, and funds will not be available for much needed replacement equipment and training programs.
So please vote "yes" on Proposition 1.

2012 Annual Report
Many analytes were relatively well related to the change in the ether extract (EE) of the RO-DDGS. As expected, as the percent EE in RO-DDGS was reduced, gross energy decreased while total dietary fiber, crude protein, and ash increased. In contrast, neutral detergent fiber appeared to decrease as oil was extracted. We cannot explain this apparent decrease as it goes against the logic that as oil is removed, other components would be concentrated. We also measured mycotoxin contamination in the basal diet and each RO-DDGS sample, and although some mycotoxins were detected, they were well below limits of concern.
Digestibility of various components in the RO-DDGS differed between treatments, but were not helpful in predicting DE or ME of the RO-DDGS samples. This was not expected based upon previous literature, and warrants further evaluation of the data.
The main focus of this experiment was to relate DE and ME to the percent EE in the RO-DDGS sample. As expected, gross energy was well related to EE content, but the simple linear relationship between DE or ME and percent EE was not obvious. The relationship between DE or ME (kcal/kg dry matter) and percent EE in the RO-DDGS (dry matter basis) could be graphed, suggesting a change in DE and ME by 32 and 46 kcal, respectively, per kg dry matter for each one percentage unit change in EE, but the coefficient of determination was poor, 0.22 and 0.32 for DE and ME, respectively. This lack of relationship can also be denoted by regression analysis demonstrating that the P value for DE and ME was nonsignificant, being 0.54 and 0.43, respectively. Calculating an expected change in DE and ME and using corn oil (DE = 8755, ME = 8405) and corn grits (DE = 3355, ME = 3210) as component "equivalents" for a RO-DDGS, suggests that a decrease in one percentage unit of EE relates to a loss of approximately 54 and 52 kcal/kg of DE an ME, respectively, slightly higher than what we found in the current experiment. Regardless of analysis for the RO-DDGS samples, no combination of nutrient analyses could be used to predict DE. In summary, relating DE and ME to only the percent EE in RO-DDGS was not a statistically sound method of analysis, with the data in the current experiment suggesting that additional parameters such as gross energy and "fiber" are necessary for improved prediction equations.

Pequea 2013
By Magnus P.
Pequea, a beautiful place to be camping, hiking, and being there. It was a very nice place to be. The neighborhood in the wooded area was nice and full of vegetation. It was by a river and the people who lived there were nice. Barely any trash laying around. The troop and I went on a long hiking trip. I was one of their leaders for a little while. We had to cross a small stream. Which I always love to cross them. It was very peaceful and quiet. The only thing I heard where the voices of some kids, their footsteps, and some cars that passed by us. On the hike we started going uphill. It was tiring, but we all managed to get up to the top of the hill without any complaints. On the way to the top we came across a cave. It was nature's air conditioning. Very, VERY cool air flowed out of it, Cooling all us hikers down. It was like a small slanted slit in the mountain. It actually was a small slit in the mountain. We kept on hiking up and the sights where true beauty. But then we got to the top and wow... just wow. We were at the top and at the cliff of the mountain and the view over the river was beautiful. I said "It's just like what you'd see in a brochure." That's how awesome the view was. Breathtaking. We had our lunch on the rock. We had PB&J. But we had it on bagels. I thought that was interesting. It also tasted nice. So after we had our lunch and before we went back down we had our picture taken with our parents or an older scout. On our way down we did not skip the cave. Why would we? It's natures air conditioning and it's a cave.
What do us boy scouts do? GO IN THE CAVE OBVIOUSLY. The entrance was what I said before: A small slit in the mountain. We go inside, and we feel, rocks and cold, moist, air. We all had the older scouts for a guide. We couldn't go everywhere in the cave, but we went to a lot of places in the cave. Still, we had fun! We were in the cave for at least 1 hour and 30 minutes. On the way back to camp we went back through the lovely neighborhood. And back to our campsite. It was clearly one of the best camping trip I've ever been on
