local scene stealers
What do an architect, a baker, a builder, a college professor, and a middle school math teacher have in common? Theatre set design, of course. As the theatre industry has exploded in the Valley over the past decade, so too have the opportunities for brave, creative types to venture into the world of live theatre set design. For many, the role was not sought after—rather, the job found them.
During the school year, Bob Dix teaches math to seventh graders at the Wood River Middle School. But when he isn't in the classroom discussing decimals, he can be found in his art studio creating sets for local theatre companies. The San Francisco transplant, who has a masters degree in ceramics sculpture, once worked full-time as an artist, using found objects to make sculptures and site-specific installations. It was his artwork that led him to stage design.
"I produced an environmental piece for the Sun Valley Center for the Arts' Japanese internment camp exhibit, and someone saw it and thought it would work well for theatre," Dix says. Since then, he has built sets for several plays at St. Thomas Episcopal Church, including The Lorax, Godspell, Agnes of God, and The Wizard of Oz, as well as nexStage Theatre's Shakespeare in the Park production of As You Like It.
Before designing a set or bringing his vision to the director, Dix always reads the script first and works to convey the play's emotional tone. He says that creative collaboration is essential: "I get some ideas, then I bat them around with the director to see what he or she thinks." This back-and-forth "dance" helps develop the concepts for the stage.
Another unexpected local set designer is Patti Ahrens, owner of Patti Cakes, whose creative talents have been honed through the decoration of beautiful wedding and birthday cakes. Without any formal training in set design, she and her husband, Peter, have produced many sets over the past fifteen years. (Peter, a building contractor, transforms Patti's visions into functioning stages.) "This town has afforded me the opportunity to learn by doing," Patti remarks.
The small stage space at the nexStage Theatre on Main Street in Ketchum has provided the Ahrenses with many challenging opportunities for learning—and they have come up with some very creative solutions. For the production of Laughing Stock Theatre Company's Harvey, which was set in an insane asylum, Patti knew the set changes would have to happen in front of the audience—so she put the stage crew in hospital scrubs. That earned them a standing ovation.
"Peter and Patti are totally adaptable. Patti looks for ways to make a design idea work in a particular space even when it appears impossible," says Kathy Wygle, a director for Laughing Stock. The Ahrenses are on the board of Laughing Stock Theatre Company and help run Camp Little Laugh, a children's live theatre camp.
Pamela Doucette fell into set design when her twin sons got involved with theatre at The Community School, and she volunteered to help backstage. An architect with knowledge of how to design and build things, Doucette thought her skills could be helpful to the school's drama program. From there, she moved on to designing sets for the New Theatre Company.
"To do good set design, you need to be a good problem solver—and in this Valley, you need to be able to do it yourself," Doucette says, emphasizing the importance of resourcefulness. Most theatre companies in the Valley work on very limited budgets, so it's critical to know what resources are available, where. Doucette is a scavenger and is well acquainted with the local thrift stores and landfill. Now a board member of the nexStage Theatre, she praises the community for its support of the Valley's growing theatre industry.
One local set designer who knew he wanted to pursue the theatre industry at a young age, Dennis Rexroad, says, "As early as fifth grade, I designed the set for the Christmas pageant at my school. It's been a lifelong passion." After studying fine arts, theater, and dance in college, Rexroad got a job painting sets for a Kansas City theatre group. Today, he spends part of the year teaching in the Kinetic Imaging Program (a.k.a. media) at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, and the rest of the year in the Wood River Valley working as the set designer for Company of Fools. Of the fifteen sets Rexroad has designed for the company, he lists The Dead, The Tempest (with an actual pool tank on stage), and Dinner with Friends (with seven full-size sets on a train table) as his favorites.
Like other set designers, Rexroad starts by reading the script. Next, he considers the "physical needs" of the play—features such as balconies, doors, or windows. He also considers "artistic interpretation": "Is it a realistic play? Or is it more abstract? Is it very emotional? What is it that you, as a designer, want to express?" Last, but not least, he compares notes with the play's director.
Next year, after 35 years of teaching, Rexroad plans to retire and move to the Wood River Valley permanently. Aside from the area's scenic beauty, he has found the community's support of the arts very attractive.
Kathy Wygle has been an active part of the Sun Valley theatre scene for many years. She is now the managing director of nexStage Theatre, but has also directed many Laughing Stock Theatre productions. Wygle has worked with many local set designers as both director and producer, and knows that good set design must always be done in collaboration with the director, actors, and the stage or performance space. Dennis Rexroad agrees, pointing out that many of his sets for Company of Fools have actually been co-designed with director John Glenn. Communication between the designer and director is critical in building a creative yet functional set.
These set designers work behind the scenes, their rewards for their creative accomplishments intrinsically bound to the success of a production as a whole. For all, it is a labor of love. >>>

Dim Mak is an independent, Los Angeles, CA-based record label, events company, and lifestyle brand founded by Steve Aoki in 1996. The label has released music in punk, indie rock, hardcore, hip hop, and electronic dance musics. The label is driven by Aoki's "Do It Yourself" ethos and the company's "By Any Means Necessary" mantra.[citation needed]
Dim Mak has promoted various artists including The Bloody Beetroots, Bloc Party, The Kills, Battles, The Gossip, Andy's iLL, Klaxons, MSTRKRFT, Felix Cartal, Datsik, and others. In 2014, the label made its 500th release with the King Babies EP from The Death Set. Dim Mak's current roster includes releases from Clockwork, Angger Dimas, Azari & III, Keys N Krates, Dirtyphonics, and many more.
Early Years (1996-2001)[edit]
Steve Aoki started Dim Mak Records at the age of 19 out of his college dorm at the University of California, Santa Barbara. In 2001, Dim Mak released one of the label's first major projects with the self-titled debut EP from Pretty Girls Make Graves. Releases from The Kills and The Black Rooster followed the year after. Aoki relocated Dim Mak to Los Angeles in 2002 on the success of these projects.
Early 2000s[edit]
In 2003, U.K. indie rock band Bloc Party personally mailed Aoki a 7-inch of the track "She's Hearing Voices" and signed to Dim Mak shortly thereafter. Dim Mak teamed up with VICE, a subsidiary of Atlantic Records, and entered a major label deal for the first time. Dim Mak and Atlantic later released Bloc Party's critically acclaimed and commercially successful Silent Alarm in 2005. Subsequently, Dim Mak continued to release indie/dance bands Neon Blonde, Be Your Own Pet, Klaxons, Scanners, and more.
In 2009, Dim Mak Records broke into the electronic dance music scene with the release of "Warp" from The Bloody Beetroots featuring Steve Aoki. The song became a worldwide club anthem and established Dim Mak as a player in the dance world.
Dim Mak continued to release commercially successful projects from MSTRKRFT (Fist of God), Battles (B EP), Fischerspooner, The Blood Brothers (Crimes), The Von Bondies (Raw and Rare), Dada Life (White Noise/Red Meat), and Atari Teenage Riot (Is this Hyperreal?).
Key releases with various electronic music producers and DJs helped Dim Mak Records become a leading influencer in the dance music world recognized by media and industry reps alike. Off the success of "Warp" and Steve Aoki's solo DJ career, Dim Mak continued to sign and break numerous electronic dance music producers like Azari & III, Datsik, Felix Cartal, and several others. By 2014 the roster had grown to boast artists such as Autoerotique, Angger Dimas, Botnek, Borgore, Coone, Clockwork, Deorro, Felix Cartal, Garmiani, Ookay, Sound of Stereo, Yolanda Be Cool, Keys N Krates and many more.
From 2003-2014, Dim Mak held the weekly Dim Mak Tuesdays event at Dim Mak Studios (previously known as Cinespace) in Hollywood, CA. In 2006, Steve Aoki and Dim Mak teamed up with the late producer DJ AM to launch the weekly Sunday party Banana Split Sundaes at Los Angeles nightclub LAX. From 2010-2013, Dim Mak hosted the weekly Dim Mak Sundays party at Hollywood club Drai's.
Dim Mak hosts Dim Mak-branded stages at music festivals around the world.
In the United States, Dim Mak has partnered with Hard Events (Los Angeles), Electric Daisy Carnival (Los Angeles and Las Vegas), Electric Forest (Michigan), Identity Festival (national tour), Beyond Wonderland (Los Angeles), and Electric Zoo (New York). Dim Mak also launched the Deadmeat North American Tour in 2012 headlined by Steve Aoki, which took in over 40 tour dates throughout North America. In 2013, Dim Mak and Steve Aoki launched the North American Aokify America Tour headlined by Steve Aoki featuring Borgore and Waka Flocka Flame as direct support with Pharrell Williams on select dates and a rotating cast of Dim Mak artists as support acts. In 2013, Dim Mak hosted the Dim Mak Up All Night Stage at the inaugural TomorrowWorld in Chattahoochee Hills, GA.
In Europe, Dim Mak has presence at several festivals like Beatpatrol (Vienna), Get Loaded (London), Optimus Alive! (Lisbon), and Tomorrowland (Belgium). Dim Mak has produced the main stage at the Playground Festival (Jakarta), We Love Sounds/Winterland Soundsystem Festival (Australia), and Future Music Festival (Australia).

I would - you won't know if you don't try(Original post by Lovefoxxx_93)
I received an email a few days ago telling me about the new restrictions.
I'm not sure whether or not I meet the new criteria. I don't know exactly how tall I am and I haven't weighed myself in about 4 years. I was planning on donating on Tuesday...should I just turn up anyway and see what they think?
Do you give blood?
|Posted on
Giving blood is one of the easiest ways to help people...
I kinda feel like I should as well considering i'm OR-
Can someone explain the new restrictions to me? I give blood, I'm in the shaded area, I'm 17, and I haven't grown since I was 12. What changes when I become 20?
Edit: Just checked everything and I'm exactly 3500ml .. so I'm okay I think!
My blood type is AB- which is the universal donor one so as much as I hate that sickly light headed feeling after having it done, I do it quite a bit.

Sorry for being pernickety, you were just stealing the O negger's thunder
Only once, I would love to give blood again but I seem to struggle to find anywhere near to uni/at reasonable times to actually go along! Quite annoying since they regularly did sessions on our university campus last year but seem to have stopped since. Lame. I do also have the slight inconvenience of having chronic eczema in the creases of my elbows, and I was told I can't give blood when that's flared up.. which is an awful lot of the time, annoyingly!
(Original post by Belle-x)
I did it once. Took them a while to find my vein but they got a full bag in the end. Went the second time and the nurse was really rude, didn't have the time to find the vein and told me not to go back for a few years :| I probably won't do it again now tbh after that.
I have health issues which prevent me from donating blood but if I could I would.
I might do, needles make me feel really sick though so i'm not sure how i would react to it.
The next local one isn't until next month anyway.
(Original post by robo donkey)
Bone marrow's more a case of being on the register and just waiting, you could be on it your life and never give or go on and need to do it after a week. But here's hoping I get to help someone with mine too eh, been on the list for a few years now
Props to all who do it though!
I'd love to do it, but realistically I don't think I ever could-I'm deathly afraid of needles! I doubt the nurses would be grateful for me turning up in the full knowledge I'd be on the floor the second he/she touched me...
OfflineReputationRep:(Original post by player19)
Yes, i give blood for about 5 times. it stared in my high school where blood donoring was organised. If we spend blood we would have a day free.
I gave blood for the first time the other week, turned 17 a few months ago and just got around to it. It felt really good and I intend to continue donating blood.
I would if I could, but I'm just really scared of needles. I have to cross the road to even walk past the blood donation centre
Why the neg? People can't help having phobias :/
(Original post by robo donkey)
I do, giving today for the big 10th time, get a bronze card for my troubles. But really it's cool to know it's helping people out there who need it.
So, do you do it?
(Original post by dirtyoldriver)
you shouldn't let a bad experience with one nurse put you off. The majority of them are lovely and make you feel good for coming in and doing it, you just get the occasional arsey one who hates their job! Think about the wider picture of why you give blood rather than the fact that one NHS worker was having a bad day and was a bit rude.
Turns out I can't do it anyway.
I wish I could, but I'm underweight
Yes my partner and I do.
No, because until a few days ago I believed you had to be 18 to give blood. But apparently it's changed to 17, or maybe that's just in Scotland. They should make this more well known, I'd have given blood the other day if I'd known before! Ah well, I'll catch 'em next time.
No, I only drink it.

Dr. King was a prophet
Posted on April 04, 2008
"Any discussion of the role of the Christian minister today must ultimately emphasize the need for prophecy. Not every minister can be a prophet, but some must be prepared for the ordeals of this high calling and be willing to suffer courageously for righteousness." Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. from his book Stride Toward Freedom
Forty years ago today, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee. As we pause to reflect on the transformative life of Dr. King, let us not forget that he was a modern day prophet. While Dr. King seems to be almost universally loved and respected today — when he was murdered that was not the case. True prophets are rarely popular while living, true prophets usually become popular only after death. The same can be said of this great prophet who walked among us who, like prophets before him, met the two-fold test of prophecy: foretell and forthtell.

James F. Cawley, MPH, PA-C
A lot of discussion has taken place lately regarding so-called bridge programs for PAs. Advocates of the idea believe such educational programs would provide a PA with, let's say, five to 10 years of clinical practice experience, some amount of advanced standing (i.e., a shorter period of training) toward the MD or DO degree.
Supporters note that bridge programs would provide a pathway for PAs who wish to become physicians. They contend that medical school content is similar to that of PA programs in that they are medical-model in structure and overlap in many areas. Proponents also note that such programs could help address health workforce issues in that they could be structured to require service in primary care and offer a shorter training period for the fully qualified physician.
The idea of bridge programs gained additional traction in March at the PA Clinical Doctoral Summit, which was devised and sponsored by the AAPA and the PAEA. Among the summit's recommendations was that "The PA profession should explore with physician education groups the development of a model for advanced standing for PAs who desire to become physicians (sometimes called a 'bridge program')."
What's in It for Physicians?
It seems reasonable for PAs to further study bridge programs, but we should fully think through the ramifications.
An initial key question: What would be the motivation for a U.S. medical school to offer such a program? In my view, very little. As one who has spent the last 35 years working in medical schools, such institutions have a well-deserved reputation as being elitist, traditional organizations that are not known for innovative medical education programs. Further, most medical schools do not grant advanced standing to anyone, whether a PhD, dentist, veterinarian or other doctorate-prepared health professional. What makes people think these institutions would change their policies for PAs?
There are other reasons why bridge programs are unlikely to come about. The notion of PAs becoming physicians does not benefit the health workforce. It simply takes a proportion of practicing PAs out of workforce for five to seven years and generates another physician, who likely would enter specialty practice. Unless one could impose a stipulation that bridge program graduates enter primary care practice-an unlikely proposition in a society that thus far has refused to place specialty impositions on new medical school graduates-the public stands to benefit little from the prospect of another specialist physician.
Yet another issue: Presumably, the advanced-standing part of a bridge program would exempt PAs from year 1 and/or year 2 of medical school. That clearly would put such students at a disadvantage in their attempt to pass Step 1 of the United States Medical Licensing Examination, which is basic science in content. How would a PA who has been out of study of the basic sciences since his or her PA education fare in this examination? Ostensibly, it is the practical clinical experience, not knowledge of basic medical sciences, that PAs would bring to a bridge program. It would be difficult to translate that element into advanced standing in an MD or DO curriculum.
We Need More PAs, Not Fewer
The final factor is that bridge programs essentially are a plan for PAs to leave the profession. This would make it difficult for the AAPA or the PAEA to have an official position on or endorse the notion. How can those whose role is to promote the profession support programs wherein PAs would exit it?
Estimates of the number of PAs who successfully go on to medical school are about 4%, suggesting that a large majority of PAs are quite satisfied with their career choice.
It seems to me that the discussion of bridge programs falls somewhere between professional delusion and wishful thinking on the part of a minority of PAs. We have more important things to worry about.
Instead of spending time and resources on the unrealistic prospect of bridge programs, the PA profession, from the workforce policy point of view, is better advised to invest in strategies designed to attract more PAs to primary care. Physicians continue to avoid primary care, and PAs are increasingly emulating that unfortunate pattern. A consequence of this trend is the loss of faith among the medical community and policymakers in the promise that PAs would help meet the needs of the health system and population.
Our health system needs more primary care providers, including PAs. Figuring how we can provide incentives for more PA graduates to enter primary care, not the pursuit of improbable bridge to physician programs, should be of prime focus in PA workforce policy discussions.
James F. Cawley is professor and director of the PA/MPH program at the School of Medicine and Health Sciences at The George Washington University in Washington.

le 16 Feb 2008,
Dear all,
Know how to manage iptables ?
Point is we have a WS that is receiving tons of anormal IPs that are
connecting at a rapid pace.
We attempt to believe that our Histing House (Affi nity) are true
profesionnals : much better than we are.
We do not know why since 7 days someone destroys everything launching
tons of connexions : The problem is Apache is getting over loaded with
requests until the server runs out of memory and crashes.
For sure our USD 1.10 EBITDA / Day loss-of-time company worth these
Hosting experts enabled syn-cookies, modified Apache timeouts and
Server-Pool Size Regulation, and blocked ips in iptables.
I go through the iptables "Unix/Linux/Fedora 2/Apache 2.0.50" command
line : "locate iptables" and editing files.
Could not figure out where the IPs are listed and added to the
definition list.
Nothing in :
Do you know the name of the file & location that includes the list of
blocked IPs ?
Many thanks and Regards for in advices.

'Revenge' Season 1, Episode 6, 'Intrigue': TV Recap
There's nothing quite like waking up in your Hamptons beachouse next to the heir of the town's richest family. Emily took Daniel to bed in the last episode, and here they are waking up together when a knock at the door disturbs their morning.
It's Nolan, who seems quite shaken up. He's got information on Lydia Davis and needs to talk to Emily.
Out goes Daniel, in goes Nolan.
Lydia is in a coma after she fell/leap/was pushed off her fifth floor rooftop but Nolan rescued the paperwork and the photo. But Emily also got more than she bargained for. There's a video of Frank lying to Victoria about Lydia and Emily wants it to fall in Conrad's lap to take the potential heat off her and place it on Frank.
A la "Gossip Girl" it seems like "Revenge" is headed to the one-party-per-episode formula. This week it's the Fourth of July, a party the Grayson's have held for the last 20 years.
Tyler is still meddling with Daniel and Emily, and arranged for a double date with Ash. We think he's up to no good.
Declan is fighting for Charlotte and encouraging Jack to do the same with Emily, especially since Daniel is scheduled to start working at the bar. So Jack heads over to Emily's with a toolbox, intending to repair and move the porch swing. Emily thinks it's adorable, as does Daniel, who is there to take Emily on that double date.
Frank tells Victoria that "Conrad was never the right man for you," and Victoria plays the brooding ingénue. Conrad fires Frank after 20 years "of service" much of which, it seems, was taken up by keeping the unhappy couple out of jail. But hey, Conrad offers his jet to Frank to go "far away from here."
Declan is still fighting for Charlotte, and empties out a lobster cage to try and sell them to get the money to take Charlotte out. The extremely bearded owners come to beat Declan up and Jack comes to the rescue with a bat, and Daniel comes too, with money.
Tyler doesn't want Daniel to be working at the bar, so he puts something in his drink to drug him, proving our theory that he's up to no good. Then he heads outside to smack his head against a pillar and blame it on Daniel to Victoria.
The part is a hit, until Frank pulls Nolan into the pool house and demands to know why he was at Lydia's. Nolan is scared out of his wits and runs to Emily, just as Frank watches on. Bad move Nolan.
Emily heads home to sit on her newly redone porch swing while Frank spies on her. Declan kisses Charlotte on the "Amanda." How full circle.

|Virtual Tour of NCGRP
Virtual Tour - Plant Genetic Resources Preservation Program
Come and see how we handle and store the valuable materials when they arrive. Take a look inside the vaults to see both conventional and liquid nitrogen (cryogenic) storage.
Seed and Plant Material Donors/Sources
NCGRP receives seed and plant materials from all over the United States and the world. NCGRP stores the base collection of the National Plant Germplasm System. NCGRP also works with international organizations such as the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT - Mexico), the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI - Philippines) and the International Plant Genetic Resources Institute (Bioversity International - Rome), as well as the Centers for Plant Conservation (CPC), the Crop Science Society of America for Crop Science Registration (CSR), and the Plant Variety Protection Office (PVPO).
Quarantine Seed Quarantine is a government program to monitor and control the importation of plant and animal materials. Samples that arrive at NCGRP under quarantine restrictions are handled in the quarantine laboratory. Samples are inspected and prepared for storage in a laminar flow biological safety cabinet. Material being prepared for increase is surface sterilized and treated with a fungicide prior to shipment. All germplasm is increased and inspected for disease and/or insect infestations by APHIS inspectors on the
Seed Quality Evaluation Laboratory
Seed Receiving
Viability Assessment
Viability assessment is a means of testing a sample to determine how many seeds are alive and may produce a normal plant. Initial tests are conducted to determine viability before samples are stored. Analysts then may assess viability using germination and tetrazolium tests. Subsequently, samples are tested periodically to monitor seed viability during storage.
NCGRP stores samples in conventional storage at -18° C and cryogenic storage using liquid nitrogen at -196° C (-160° C in the vapor phase). Storage method is determined by the type of seed, the size of the seed, the number of seeds in the sample, the viability of the sample, and sometimes the instructions from the donor.
The vault area at NCGRP is a separately constructed portion of the building, self-contained with its own air handling unit and electrical generator in case of emergency. It is able to withstand possible floods from nearby Horsetooth Reservoir, tornadoes, and the dropping of a 2500 pound object traveling at 125 miles per hour. The vaults have the capacity to store 1.5 million samples, 50% in conventional storage, and 50% in liquid nitrogen.
Cryogenic Vault Area
Tanks are filled once a week, with about 56 liters of liquid nitrogen.
All of these elaborate precautions are to ensure that our valuable germplasm lives as long as possible, and is available for plant breeders and researchers to produce the food and fiber products we all depend upon.

The prospect that consumers will improve their health through wider use of nonprescription drugs is back on the policy agenda at FDA. Pharmacists, healthcare companies, and some consumer groups are backing the agency's new campaign to authorize certain over-the-counter (OTC) drugs with special "conditions for safe use," such as access to electronic information and special assistance from pharmacists. Whereas OTC medicines primarily treat acute, short-term conditions, FDA officials are touting this "new paradigm" as a way to approve nonprescription meds for common chronic diseases, with the help of systems that assist patients in assessing their health and response to medication over longer terms.
FDA is considering whether "there should be more flexibility in the concept of nonprescription drugs," explained Janet Woodcock, director of FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), during a two-day public hearing held in March by FDA to gain stakeholder input on the proposal. To approve an OTC therapy, FDA currently seeks evidence from manufacturers that the medicine can be used safely and appropriately based on the approved "drugs facts box" label and common knowledge. Now, FDA is exploring whether additional information from pharmacists and health IT systems could sufficiently augment consumer understanding of how to select and use a drug appropriately without going to a doctor.
The rationale for expanded OTC drug access is that the cost and inconvenience of visiting a doctor to obtain a prescription deters many people from treating common health conditions—and from adherence to recommended therapy after treatment begins. There's strong evidence from the literature over the past 20 years that prescription-to-OTC switches for vaginal antifungals, allergy treatments, and heartburn medicines, among others, have promoted effective self-care. Testing innovative nonprescription products has improved methods for conducting label-comprehension studies and actual-use trials as well.
Yet, Merck failed several times to gain OTC status for its anticholesterol drug Mevacor (lovastatin), largely because FDA was not convinced that consumers could determine whether a cholesterol drug was right for them just by reading the product label. FDA has tried to handle with such situations by establishing a third category of "behind-the-counter" drugs available from pharmacists, as with the Plan B morning-after pill. However, manufacturers generally object to creating a third class of drugs or simultaneous marketing of a prescription and nonprescription product for fear that such options will confuse consumers.
Under FDA's new paradigm, manufacturers would ensure "safe use" of a medicine by using new IT programs and more home-use diagnostics to enhance and document individual understanding of appropriate drug use. Information kiosks and other IT aides in pharmacies, for example, could direct consumers through self-diagnosis information programs that check for risk factors contraindicating treatment and monitor continued safe use.
Fryhofer further warned that wider use of OTC drugs probably could raise out-of-pocket costs for individuals that have health insurance, and that change alone could create "a new barrier to adherence." Although OTC medicines reduce overall healthcare spending by $102 billion a year, according to the Consumer Healthcare Products Association (CHPA), individuals could end up paying more because insurers, employers, and government healthcare programs seldom reimburse for nonprescription medicines. That situation could change, however, if healthcare plans decide to cover third-class medicines in certain cases. In addition, patient outlays for OTCs would be offset in part by eliminating the need for doctor visits.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers could benefit from increased sales of nonprescription products, but are keeping fairly quiet about these prospects, particularly about the role of switches in retaining market share for a brand facing competition from generic or other new therapies.
At the FDA meeting, CHPA President Scott Melville highlighted how OTC medicines save billions of dollars for the healthcare system overall and provide relief to millions of Americans. Melville also urged retaining a "clear distinction" between prescription and nonprescription drugs, and that FDA should approve OTCs under its proposed paradigm individually and based on scientific data. Generic-drug makers support OTCs in general, but not necessarily switches that make it harder to enter a market; barriers could emerge if FDA approves an OTC with safe-use provisions that apply to all similar products.
Drug distributors also are uneasy about OTCs with special conditions for safe use that limit product distribution to certain pharmacies or retail outlets. The Healthcare Distribution Management Association urged FDA to adopt standardized processes for requiring distributors to determine which pharmacies and customers may receive a particular nonprescription drug.
However, pharmacists emphasize that they will need additional compensation for providing extra clinical services as part of safe use conditions. FDA is not likely to require specific payments, but Menighan advised that agency policies should not preclude reimbursement by the patient, third parties, states, Medicare, or sponsors.
At the same time, retail pharmacists prefer to limit expanded access programs to bonafide pharmacies, as opposed to the thousands of retail outlets that sell OTC medicines. And pharmacists working in hospitals and for healthcare systems have expressed that they are well-positioned to participate in special safe-use programs
Not surprising, IT and research firms are eager to provide a range of technology to support these efforts. They are proposing new ways to evaluate and ensure compliance with self-diagnostic tools, to devise collaborative programs that enhance care management, and to coordinate follow-up and oversight in collaboration with physicians, payers, and patients. Manufacturers also are exploring such systems, such as testing by GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare of an interactive drug facts kiosk to help consumers self-determine the need for and suitability of using statins to reduce cholesterol. The program, explained GSK Vice-President David Schifkovitz, could run on a home computer or smart phone and produce a personal recommendation regarding treatment.
To move forward with this initiative, policymakers need to devise appropriate exclusivity arrangements and other incentives for manufacturers to invest in innovative information and patient monitoring systems. In addition, methods for testing the efficacy of patient self-selection programs need to be validated. Despite these and other obstacles, Woodcock and others appear optimistic that this new approach not only could enhance medication use, but also identify drug–drug interactions and improve pharmacovigilance tracking. Although efforts to expand nonprescription drug use in the past have failed, the advent of electronic medical records and smart phones may create a more positive atmosphere for change.

Financial Times06/09/2012By Geoff Dyer [Printer Friendly Version]
Washington - The US is reaching the limits of our patience with Pakistan about the havens enjoyed by terrorist groups, said Leon Panetta, defence secretary, after a week in which Washington has stepped up its controversial use of drone attacks in the country.
Speaking on Thursday during a visit to Afghanistan, Mr Panetta repeatedly expressed his frustration at the ability of Islamist militants to launch attacks in Afghanistan from their bases across the border in Pakistan.
His unusually blunt language underlines the continued deterioration in ties between the two countries, with rising anti-American feeling in Pakistan about the drone attacks matched by mounting criticism in Washington about what many feel is the double-game that Pakistan is playing in Afghanistan.
We have made that clear time and time again, and will continue to make clear that it is an intolerable situation to have those people attacking our people, our forces and to have the convenience of being able to return to safe havens in Pakistan, Mr Panetta said at a news conference in Kabul.
It is very important for Pakistan to take steps . . . we are reaching the limits of our patience, he said. It is difficult to achieve peace in Afghanistan as long as there is safe haven for terrorists in Pakistan.
His sharp comments followed a fresh eruption of anger in Pakistan after the US conducted three drone strikes on its territory in recent days, one of which killed the man US officials believe to have been the number two figure in al-Qaeda.
Pakistans parliament has passed a resolution calling for the drone strikes to end, and the government has made suspension of the attacks a condition of reopening supply routes to the war effort in Afghanistan.
The delicate politics of continued US military presence in Afghanistan were underlined when Afghan officials said 18 civilians had been killed in a Nato air strike on Wednesday. Hamid Karzai, the Afghan president, returned early from a summit in Beijing because of the deaths, which he said had no justification.
The US has long pressured Pakistan to take more action against the Haqqani network of Afghan militants, many of whom have taken refuge across the border in Pakistan. Many US officials and analysts believe that Pakistan provides cover for this and other groups, believing it will give them leverage in Afghanistan once the bulk of Nato forces leave in 2014.
The relationship of Pakistans Inter-Services Intelligence agency with the Haqqanis has been a constant source of irritation to Washington. Shortly before stepping down last year as chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, Admiral Mike Mullen went public with those frustrations, telling a congressional hearing that the Haqqani network was a virtual arm of the ISI, a claim that prompted an outraged response from Pakistan.
Speaking to an audience in India before his trip to Afghanistan, Mr Panetta joked about how Pakistan had been kept in the dark about the plans to storm Osama bin Ladens compound last year, an event which still infuriates Pakistans leadership. They didnt know about our operation, he said to laughter in the audience. That was the whole idea.

A lot of very rich people, have a huge income to live on, but it is entirely based upon their assets, such as stocks. So I bet a lot of people would be able to afford the monthly payment, but not invest so much of their assets into the house.

Even Among Quants, Twitter Hoax Raises Skepticism About Tracking Social Media
The tumult in the stock market caused by a fake Twitter headline Tuesday is sparking some skepticism about just how far news-driven trading strategies can be taken, even among some who use computer models as the basis for making trades.
The day after a hoax tweet said that the White House had been bombed sent the Dow Jones Industrial Average into a 145-point tailspin, specialists in quantitative investing gathered Wednesday afternoon at the "Battle of Quants" conference in Manhattan.
An afternoon panel discussion, "Sentiment Analysis: Social Media and Big Data Analytics and Price Movement Predictability," was redirected at the last minute to focus on the aftermath of the so-called Hack Crash.
"The accuracy of tweets is a major concern," said Zeid Barakat, co-founder of Flyberry Capital, a strategic trading firm that uses high-speed trading strategies to trade commodity futures around news events.
Mr. Barakat said his firm pools data from hundreds of data sources–some as arcane as earthquake reports–to look for consistent patterns that set up well for consistent short-term trades. But social media has thus far only been used to supplement existing streams of data.
"Clearly what we had was an anomalous tweet; we didn't trade because we didn't have the depth of data to feel comfortable modeling a trade," he said.
High-frequency computer trading firms use complex computer programs designed to buy and sell shares based on the momentum of the market. In recent years, more have added programs designed to incorporate headlines for news and economic data, and automatically initiate trades. But increasingly, trading desks are watching outlets like Twitter alongside scrolling headlines from traditional media outlets.
Earlier this month, Bloomberg LP announced that it was weaving certain Twitter accounts into its data service, and the Securities and Exchange Commission has allowed corporations to disclose earnings news through social media outlets, including Twitter and Facebook (FB). Mr. Barakat said his firm might consider incorporating certain corporate Twitter feeds into its models in the future.
"Twitter is just another measure of sentiment by transmitting news and rumors, albeit at faster speed," said Richard Edwards, managing director of HED Capital Management Ltd., a London-based quantitative advisory and proprietary trading firm. "Any news in the market is like a rock in a pond, but these disturbances are as old as markets."
Mr. Edwards's firm uses market-based sentiment signals for its trading decisions, which do not make algorithm-based trades. He said his firm took the stock dip as an opportunity to close out existing short positions.
For sellers of data to trading firms, Tuesday's market action confirmed the ubiquity and influence of social media, as well as its value and relevance as a trading tool.
"If you weren't following Twitter, you would not have known why the market was moving," said Seth McGuire, director of business development for Gnip, a Boulder, Colo.-based firm that sells social media data from partners including Twitter to hedge funds and other businesses.
Mr. McGuire said his firm was approached by hedge funds two years ago to offer social-media data to screen for sentiment trends tied to stocks or brands.

Oral contraceptives became a clinical reality ten years ago. Although nine or more different chemicals are preventing pregnancy in American women today, 80% of the consumption is of compound "XV" or a close relative first synthesized in 1952 by Djerassi and colleagues, 19-nor-17α-ethynyltestosterone. This compound has proved to be an effective preventive of ovulation. In a recent historical survey of the chemical developments, Djerassi poses the question whether it is worthwhile to synthesize additional compounds as potential candidates for oral contraceptives.1
His answer is affirmative. Although problems of production adequate to meet possible demands once were formidable, these have been resolved by discovery of new methods of partial chemical synthesis more efficient than those first employed. Within the past year, discovery of a chemicalmicrobiological transformation of an intermediate directly to estrone by a soil microorganism offers a shorter and most efficient route to compound XV and others.

Listen: Interpol and Vampire Weekend members releasing solo albums
Sometimes you gotta go it alone. That's what members of Interpol, Vampire Weekend, System of a Down and Das Racist are saying this week. And wouldn't you know it? Joey Ramone, were he alive, would agree. Or at least, that's what BMG would have you believe.
The record label will be releasing the Ramones frontman's long-gestating second posthumous solo album "...Ya Know?" on May 22, with its 15 tracks featuring collaborations from " Joan Jett, Little Steven Van Zandt, former Ramones drummer Richie Ramone, Bun E. Carlos of Cheap Trick, Dennis Diken of the Smithereens, Patti Smith Group guitarist Lenny Kaye and members of the Ramones' punk-era contemporaries The Dictators."
"Joey Ramone was one of the key figures in a musical revolution whose impact is still being felt today. We are honored that Joey's brother Mickey and his estate have entrusted this album to BMG," BMG exec Jason Hradil. "The album represents the very best of the recordings Ramone left behind and assembled by his brother Mickey Leigh, manager Dave Frey and trusted producer Ed Stasium."
The single "Rock 'N Roll Is the Answer" will be released in advance on Record Store Day on Saturday (April 21).
I don't have any authority to say whether or not the late Ramone -- dead 11 years -- would care for another solo go-round on the heels of 2002's "Don't Worry About Me," but like so many of these projects that occur long after death has transpired, it still smells like cash-grab. (Or like teen spirit?)
As for folks who are still alive...
Vampire Weedend bassist Chris Baio is putting out his premiere solo EP "Sunburn"on May 21, and teamed with Matias Aguayo for its first big reveal, "Tanto," streaming here:
The band's producer and multi-instrumentalist Rostam Batmangli is in headlines lately, too, as he contributed the original score to 2011 Sundance pick "Sound of My Voice." That film is now getting a wide release at the end of this month on April 27; Batmangli is brother to Zal Batmangli, who directed and co-wrote the film.
Paul Banks from Interpol is also releasing a set in EP form, for "Julian Plenti Lives," out on June 12. The Matador set features three covers in its five songs, including Frank Sinatra's "I'm a Fool to Want You" and... get this... J Dilla's "Mythsysizer."
The Interpol songwriter, singer and lyricist put out his first solo set under the Julian Plenti name in 2009, with his first set "Julian Plenti Is... Skyscraper." It was OK.
Serj Tankian from System of a Down has plotted another solo set, which got a release date today. "Harakiri" will be out on July 21 via Reprise/Serjical Strike (I see what you did there), making it Tankian's third solo effort.
And, as previously reported, all three members of Das Racist have plotted solo releases in 2012. Kool A.D. is already done making another mixtape, "51," out on April 24. There's a new song from it, "Ticky Ticky" featuring Main Attrakionz and Green Ova, streaming below:

An annuity is an insurance product that pays income. The product is purchased with a lump sum of money or through a series of payments. When you retire, the investment is converted into a stream of income. If you take distributions before age 59 1/2, you will face a 10 percent tax penalty in addition to ordinary income taxes. Annuity income is taxable when you begin taking withdrawals. The type of annuity you have determines how much of the distribution is taxable.
Qualified Annuities
A qualified annuity is one that you fund with pretax money. These annuities are often set up by employers as part of a retirement plan offered to employees. Qualified annuities are taxed the same as any other tax-advantaged account such as an individual retirement account or 401(k). Although your investment is earning interest, you do not report the earnings until you begin receiving payments. The entire payment you receive is considered taxable income.
You can rollover a qualified annuity to another qualified account to maintain the tax-deferred status. For example, you can roll traditional IRA funds into an annuity or your annuity into an IRA without paying taxes on the transaction. The same tax rules apply for funds you roll over into another qualified investment. If you are in a taxable income bracket, you are required to pay income taxes on any voluntary or mandatory distributions.
Nonqualified Annuities
A nonqualified annuity grows tax-deferred until you begin taking withdrawals. Since the annuity is funded with after-tax dollars, your distributions are partially taxable. Only the interest earnings are taxable at ordinary income tax rates at the time of withdrawal. If you decide to just take out the principal, you do not pay taxes.
You cannot withdraw the interest from a nonqualified annuity until you reach age 59 1/2. Unlike a qualified annuity, you are not required to take mandatory distributions when you reach age 70 1/2. You can withdraw from the annuity as needed or keep the money in the annuity to defer taxes until a later date. One of the main benefits of a nonqualified annuity is the ability to reinvest your interest gains. The reinvested gains grow tax-deferred, allowing you to benefit from compounding interest. The taxable income continues to grow tax-deferred for as long as you wish.

BAMBERG, Germany -- Six weeks, two duty stations, and 115 students later, the cost for 11 jumpmaster instructors to travel on temporary duty to certify new jumpmasters has proved to be a success.
The jumpmasters, who were part of a Mobile Training Team from 1st Battalion, 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment, traveled from Fort Benning, Ga., to both Vicenza, Italy, and Bamberg to teach a three-week jumpmaster static line course to Soldiers of 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team.
Jumpmasters supervise paratroopers or parachutists who jump from an airplane.
Having an MTT travel overseas to provide 173rd ABCT paratroopers jumpmaster instruction has a variety of benefits, said Sgt. 1st Class Jeffery Bond, senior instructor for the MTT.
"It gives the unit the ability to save money and gives them the maximum bang for their dollar," Bond said.
When units provide training to their personnel, the cost of the training usually becomes the unit's responsibility.
Although most of 173rd ABCT is stationed in Germany, the classes had a similar amount of students, Bond said. The student to instructor ratio is about four or five student for every one instructor. Bamberg started with 60 students and Vicenza had 55 students.
It's a price difference between sending 115 paratroopers to Fort Benning for training as opposed to bringing over 11 instructors to teach the course, said 1st Lt. Bill Hackenbracht, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 173rd Brigade Support Battalion.
Bringing the training here "doesn't take Soldiers away from their family," Hackenbracht said. "It takes care of Soldiers and saves money.
"It's a win-win," he said.
Bond said he completely agrees with Hackenbracht's assessment and believes the returns far outweigh the drawbacks, but added the biggest downfall of an MTT is the absence of the training environment mentality.
"There are more distractions for the students," Bond said.
The need to focus on the objective of passing the course is important, Bond said, and to pass the course, the jumpmasters in training need to be disciplined and study.
Even if many students failed the course, Bond said, the cost analysis far out weighs sending students to Jumpmaster School individually.
The jumpmaster MTT only offers five jumpmaster training courses a year, he said.
Since the Airborne Jumpmaster School is a joint service school, the training can be for Marines, Air Force, Army, or Navy personnel, Bond said. The Jumpmaster training can also extend beyond joint service training and incorporate personnel from other countries.
Some personnel from foreign armies travel to Fort Benning to attend jumpmaster training, Bond said. The MTT allows foreign army personnel to attend the MTT training if the unit's leadership wishes to extend an invitation to their counterparts.
However, the 173rd ABCT did not do this because there was a high priority to get the personnel in the unit trained and certified to be jumpmasters.
Due to the increased operational tempo associated with the Long War, Hackenbracht said, some of the unit's Soldiers needed to be certified.
Hackenbracht said this training from the MTT should provide the brigade with 75-100 new jumpmasters, which is important to the unit's identity.
"We're the only airborne brigade in (U.S. Army) Europe," Hackenbracht said. Getting the brigade back to sustainable operational levels is a matter of importance and is essential to the esprit de corps of the unit.
Bond not only expressed the importance of officers being jumpmaster qualified because of their inherent position, but he emphasized the importance of noncommissioned officers to aspire to be jumpmasters.
"It's important for NCOs to seek this training," Bond said.
NCOs lead by example and should be the first out the door, Bond said. Several NCOs attended the course.
"This right here makes the unit that much stronger," Bond said.

2006 Duckhorn Vineyards Merlot
(USA, California, Napa Valley)
OK… the 06 was very disappointing. Duckhorn Merlot has been one of my favorite Merlot until the 06. This wine got thin and industrial with little character. I put my 04 and 05 reviews below for your reference. Color is medium purple. The nose has lots of spices and hints of Windex. The nose is kind of thin with very little fruit, more spices and white pepper. The palate is really short and uneventful. Almost no fruit on the start. Almost nothing to write about. The mid plate is non-existent and the finish is bitter with no real lingering memories. Sorry folks, Duckhorn missed the boat on the 06 vintage. Very disappointing to me when this was one of my favorites. This is a pass for me at this price.
30 minutes into the decanting, the cherries and tobacco came out some on the nose. Got a little red fruits on the palate but not a huge change.

2004 Duckhorn Vineyards Merlot
(USA, California, Napa Valley)
This Duckhorn Merlot 2004 was definitely more velvety and softer than the 05 and 03. Nicely done on this one. Intense yet well balanced. Love the dark fruits and floral on the nose with hints of tobacco. Full bodied with plum, chocolate, mocha, and vanilla on the nose. Nice and powerful. Solid deep purple in color. The palate is velvety and well rounded right through the mid palate. Strong black fruits. The finish is not too hot and has length with tobacco mocha and just the right oak and earthly feel. Plum, blackberry and spices. Although I am not a huge Duckhorn Cabernet fan for the money, I really like this 04 merlot and it's worth a try.


text: Hello everyone, As you've all probably noticed I've been lurking for a while now so I thought it was time to introduce myself properly. My name is Donna and I'm nearly 29. I'm married with two girls coming up 5 and 2. We live in East Yorkshire. I've never been "fat" (hate that word) but been chubby my whole life and am very pear shaped at my smallest I was a 10 on top and a 14 on bottom. The main reason I'm going primal is that I'm mainly happy where I'm at weight wise, well I'd love to be a bit slimmer but I'm not willing to starve myself to get there. And also I realised the more I dieted the more junk I ate... Low fat this and rubbish that I calorie counted... Why have an apple when a small chocolate bar has the same calories.... Why have a proper dinner when I could have a share bag of minstrels.... I started Atkins at the beginning of the year after reading the article "the men who made us fat" and started looking into low carb, the more research I've done on low carb the more I'm realising its not the "carbs" it's the type of carbs, so here I am. My hubbie is doing it with me but he's sometimes adding carbs, I'm also gradually getting my kids eating to, I'm going to do this slowly one meal at a time rather than throwing them in the deep end. I'm more primal than paleo at the minute but that might gradually change as don't eat too much dairy at the minute but don't want to tell myself I'm not allowed it. Exercise wise, I kettleworx at least 3 times a week, I'm getting my fitbit next week so intend to get my walking up to at least 10k and as for the sprinting once in a while think I'm going to work up to that one as scared of looking like an idiot Anyway I've waffled for long enough, so please subscribe and keep me on the primal way xxx Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

> 3.6. OBJECT IDENTIFIER usage
> OBJECT IDENTIFIERs are used in information modules in two ways:

Section 7.10 of RFC 2578 talks about assignments without being very
precise how the word is interpreted. As far as I recall, the intention
really was to talk about registrations. ASN.1 value assignments like
sysUpTimeInstance OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { sysUpTime 0 }
are made in other IETF MIB modules. If you want a final resolution of
this, you need to bring this up on the mib-doctors mailing list and
then go through the discussion process to see whether it is possible
to find consensus on an RFC 2578 errata.

"Dancing With the Stars" Season 9, Week 3: TV Recap
The drama took hold in the third week of the ninth season of "Dancing with the Stars" as the competitors competed in one of two Latin dances, the sexy rumba or the carefree samba. But the dancing was secondary to the theatrics on the dance floor, including a man-on-man kiss and an injury that should have sidelined a competitor.
Len Goodman returned to the judges' table and brought with him his low-score paddles. The head judge, who was absent last week for the first time in the competition's history, returned with a vengeance and made his displeasure known with several 5s and even a 4.
With 13 remaining stars, and without a clear fan favorite or a heads-above-the-rest contestant, Dancing is taking longer than usual to get its momentum. The routines are short, the technique is lacking and the commercials are plentiful. We're looking forward to that magical turning point when the show morphs from quantity with quality.
Here's a recap of the sequin-studded action:
Mark Dacascos and Lacey Schwimmer performed the first rumba of the evening. But the Iron Chef host's rendition of the sensual Latin dance — arguably the sexiest of the styles — was served up cold. Mark began by toying with his wife in the audience but his enthusiasm eventually got the best of him with a series of choppy, not fluid, movements.
Judges verdict: Bruno Tonioli called it an "anticlimax." All agreed he needed to work on connecting with the dance.
Score: 18
Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough had the evening's other Latin routine: the samba, an energetic party dance. Derek, the professional dancer who Joanna says has a bigger fan base than she does, swung in on a rope to start the dance. Joanna kept up with Derek, but looked slightly frantic and fragile in the process — the result of the model's teeny tiny frame more than anything else.
Judges verdict: Joanna still needs to build her strength, Carrie Ann Inaba said. Bruno added that her footwork still needs attention.
Score: 23
Mya and Dmitry Chaplin put their natural chemistry on display with a steamy rumba. Mya set the stage in rehearsal with candles and rose petals in the studio–but we don't think any of that was necessary. Mya and Dmitry clearly have an attraction to one another and their routine — with plenty of desperate grabs and strong embraces — was connected in a way that other competitors weren't.
Judges verdict: Carrie Ann and Bruno were both wildly impressed, with Carrie Ann passing on her usual "lift" scrutiny because she was "mesmerized" by the dance.
Score: 27 (including a 10 from each Carrie Ann and Bruno—first place)
Melissa Joan Hart and Mark Ballas suffered under Melissa's lack of technique in the samba. Their relationship showed signs of strain in the rehearsal footage. ("There's a difference between a mistake and a stupid mistake," Mark said.) But tough love — or an orange fringe costume — didn't give Melissa the rhythm she badly needed. It looked as though her feet were sticking to the dance floor.
Judges verdict: Bruno said it was better than last week. Carrie Ann said she sensed some fear.
Score: 19
Louie Vito and Chelsie Hightower are quickly becoming the cutest couple on the dance floor — as well as the most likely to have a real-life romance. The vertically challenged pair danced a sexy rumba. Louie looked the part, with slicked back hair and a bedroom stare in his eyes. The professional snowboarder had researched the dance beforehand, by watching YouTube videos) and clearly was out to impress Chelsie.
Judges verdict: Bruno purred that Louie was "grown up, turned on and ready to rumble. That's chemistry!"
Score: 21 (with a 5 from Len)
Debi Mazar and Maksim Chmerkovskiy couldn't rely on their love-hate relationship this week. After performing a tension-ridden tango last week, the pair had to, er, enjoy themselves, er, together, in the samba to the refrain "Love is in the Air." Debi's feather-filled costume met the challenge head on. The dancers did not, delivering a bland and safe routine. It looks as though she's becoming increasingly intimidated by her macho partner.
Judges verdict: Len said it was like cooking—it had all the ingredients but "lacked all the flavor."
Score: 17
Donny Osmond and Kym Johnson performed the rumba but the real drama came after the dance. Donny, a well-known Mormon with a squeaky-clean image, climbed up on the judges' table to fake kiss — or was it a real smooch? — Bruno after he called the dance "airy fairy." Donny took the joke one step to far and then did it again, dipping Bruno twice before returning to his place on the dance floor. "I don't think they'll let me back in Utah," Donny laughed.
Judges verdict: Carrie Ann, like the rest of us, had a problem remembering the dance but was pleased that it included some vulnerability. Len said he did a "great job."
Score: 21
Michael Irvin and Anna Demidova also fell victim to the week-three tension that seems to be plaguing the competitors. As a result, their samba was awkward. Michael had a hard time going from one move to the next and had a tendency to stick each pose. But if the dance was judged on his facial expressions alone, he would get a perfect score—the guy has the best smile on the floor.
Judges verdict: Bruno said "we're going in reverse" and said he danced "like a routine."
Score: 14 (last place)
Natalie Coughlin and Alec Mazo began with a dramatic water-themed introduction to their rumba. The gold medal swimmer crouched down on the floor in a swimming pose — and kept the intensity throughout. Although she confessed to being shy in rehearsals, she shimmied her way convincingly around Alec. She had some coaching on how to be sexy from Alec's wife Edyta Sliwinska, who is also a professional dancer and show regular. Edyta gave Natalie permission to go "all out" with her husband.
Judges verdict: High marks all around with particularly high praise from Carrie Ann, who last week called Natalie one of her favorites.
Score: 26
Chuck Liddell and Anna Trebunskaya set the tone for their samba with brightly-colored costumes — including detachable ruffled sleeves for Chuck. There's something about seeing a professional fighter high kick and shake his hips that just makes you smile. Afterwards, Samantha Harris asked Chuck if he thought he would still have the same fear factor in the ring after this. "I'll never be able to live it down," Chuck said.
Judges verdict: Laughs, but appreciation, from all three. Bruno called it the samba from "Zombietown — but Zombietown is a hit."
Score: 17
Aaron Carter and Karina Smirnoff topped the charts for the first few weeks but lost hold of the leader position with their rumba. Gone was Aaron's confidence from last week, when he led Karina around the floor. It was replaced by a nervousness — he said as much afterwards. He looked overwhelmed and stumbled occasionally when Karina rushed into his arms.
Judges verdict: Carrie Ann and Bruno said he is overdoing each of the moves.
Score: 21
Tom DeLay and Cheryl Burke were the couple in question for the evening because Tom has fractured both feet. But the Hammer, as he was known in Washington, bucked the recommendation of the producers and his doctors and danced anyway. "What's a little pain when you can party?" Tom said. The highlight had to be the costumes. Tom, clad in red, had a sequin elephant on his back. Cheryl wore a blue dress with a sequin donkey. The pair did the samba adequately, to the song "Why Can't We Be Friends?"
Judges verdict: Len said that if he had stress fractures in both of his feet he wouldn't be able to judge, let alone dance.
Score: 15
Kelly Osbourne and Louis Van Amstel closed the show with a samba. Kelly was determined to make up for last week, when a few missteps got the better of her. "My confidence is a little bit deflated," she said, but her willingness to do better has increased "tenfold." Her weakness is fear and a lack of confidence, something she compensated for with sass. She used her tongue to half-kiss-half-lick Louie mid routine and then gave him a full-on kiss at the end.
Judges verdict: "For me, you're back," Bruno said.
Score: 20
Who do you think will be voted off on Tuesday night?

Authorities said Aly Tran was charged with aggravated sexual assault on a minor. The alleged assault happened in Burlington in 2003; it was reported to the Chittenden Unit for Special Investigations in 2010.
A warrant for the arrest of the 45-year-old Tran was issued; his whereabouts were unknown.
