Rubio: We need an immigration-reform plan that recognizes reality « Hot Air
Tomorrow, Barack Obama will launch his immigration-reform effort with a speech in Las Vegas. Marco Rubio beats him to it by publishing a column in today's Las Vegas Review-Journal explaining the bipartisan compromise that he helped to shape. To continue to do nothing in a standoff, Rubio explains, would perpetuate the current de facto "amnesty" that has been in place for years, a fact that should worry both sides of the debate:
Note the flaw in the argument:
"Because we have defacto amnesty, the only thing we can do is make it an actual amnesty."
Left entirely unsaid, even (especially, because it shatters his argument) is that actual amnesty is not the only option. We could also enforce the law as written, on both illegals and those who employ them, secure the borders, and watch two thirds of the 20 million illegals currently breaking the law here self-deport.
Given historical Hispanic voting patters, the Democrats expect to be able to enlarge their potential voting pool by 13 of the 20 million illegals granted amnesty.
But what in the hell do the Republicans expect to get out of it? Lots of brown backs working two crap jobs in order to support social security benefits for the GOP geezer voters?
Amazingly enough, though, noted sorta-GOP squish David Frum is still waging war against amnesty, all these years later.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Wednesday, July 31, 2013
NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C. (WRDW) -- More rain isn't helping in areas still cleaning up from the daily downpours earlier this month.
One of those areas is the North Augusta Greeneway. All the water is causing steep banks to erode, leaving trees exposed and filling the drainage ditches with dirt.
Now city crews are working to clean it up.
Mike Chavous, foreman for Riverview Park, says, "Every time it rains, we usually come out the next morning after rain. This year it's been pretty bad."
Three times a week he rides down the Greeneway checking for damage. He's been the maintenance foreman in the area for more than six years and says this is the worst he's seen.
"At Riverview Park we've had 39.75 inches since Jan. 1, and June and July this year, we've had right at 22 inches," he said.
Chavous says the trouble started about a month ago, and weeks later, they are still dealing with it.
"We've had, I'd say, probably five, six times the amount of typical summer storm damage." said Carl Waldhauer, the superintendent of Programs and Facilities for the City of North Augusta.
One of the biggest problems is the steep eroding banks that leaves some trees hanging out over the path down below.
Looking at one of the fallen trees, Chavous says, "This is one, I think, of several that our arborist has identified and we will have it taken out by a contractor."
"Some of the washouts in this area are more significant than normal and we're constantly evaluating it," Waldhauer said.
So far, they've removed nine trees and counting.
"There's a couple identified that could potentially cause some issues in the near future that we're gonna have removed here shortly," Waldhauer said.
But the trees aren't the only concern. DOT crews are still working on the area below the I-20 bridge.
A large rain washed away a lot of the dirt. Now they are trying to re-stabilize the area.
"They're gonna put some more fill dirt down in there and put some more riff-raff to kinda stabilize that bank," Waldhauer said.
They say you could see crews out as early as Thursday working on the embankments, drainage ditches and removing those trees.
Hiring contractors to remove the trees so high up on those banks has been one of the biggest costs to the city.

Title: Effects of nitrogen fertilizer types on nitrous oxide emissions Authors

Submitted to: Book Chapter
Publication Type: Book / Chapter
Publication Acceptance Date: June 20, 2011
Publication Date: October 15, 2011
Citation: Burger, M., Venterea, R.T. 2011. Effects of nitrogen fertilizer types on nitrous oxide emissions. In: Guo, L. et al., editors. Understanding Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Agricultural Management. ACS Symposium Series, Washington, DC: American Chemical Society. p. 179-202. DOI: 10.1021/bk-2011-1072.ch011. Technical Abstract: The factors controlling nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions after fertilizer nitrogen (N) applications are well studied. This information can be used to choose appropriate fertilizer sources and placement methods in order to minimize direct fertilizer-induced N2O emissions in cropping systems. Several field experiments have shown that locally concentrated, alkaline-forming fertilizers, such as anhydrous ammonia or subsurface banded urea, in soil produce more N2O than evenly dispersed fertilizers. Nitrification inhibitors lower N2O emissions, but fertilizers employing a physical barrier to control the release of plant-available N are not always effective in this respect. Adding the global warming potential from fertilizer production and field application can shift the overall greenhouse gas emissions among fertility practices depending on the fertilizer type being used. The research findings presented in this review and greater knowledge about the pathways of N2O production will aid in providing better informed choices of N source and placement method in cropping systems.

VINCENT - Warren is expected to be without the services of Andrew Henthorn when it hosts Portsmouth High in a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League football game Friday night.
The 5-foot-11, 160-pound junior will be missed, because he is one of the Warriors' more athletic, all-around players who does so many things on the gridiron.
During Warren's game at East Liverpool on Oct. 11, Henthorn, a tough-nosed, hard-playing kid, was involved in a very serious hit. According to reports, he "flipped through the air like a rag doll and landed on his neck."
With numbness in his arm, it was determined that Henthorn had suffered a concussion.
Before getting injured, Henthorn had caught a 25-yard touchdown pass from QB Austin Klintworth in the second quarter. The Warriors, though, went on to drop a 35-7 decision to the Potters.
A concussion needless to say is never a good thing, and as a result Henthorn sat out Warren's stunning 31-21 upset of defending SEOAL champion Gallia Academy at Memorial Field in Gallipolis last Friday night.
This season, Henthorn has played on both sides of the football.
He's also a kick returner on special teams.
Mostly on offense, Henthorn has lined up as a pass receiver, and made a dozen receptions for 141 yards and one touchdown.
He also has run out of the backfield, and rushed for 178 yards on 32 carries, and one TD run of 10 yards against the Parkersburg Big Reds at Don Drumm Stadium on Aug. 31.
Against PHS, Henthorn gained 65 yards on the ground in 12 carries. He also had eight catches for 90 yards as Warren fell 51-40.
As a signal caller, Henthorn has completed one of two passes for 40 yards and one scoring strike to Cole Wigal in Warren's dramatic 47-39 come-from-behind win against Parkersburg South on Sept. 20.
Defensively, Henthorn has played in the secondary, and been credited with 13 tackles, seven solo. He also has two fumble recoveries.
Henthorn has an older brother Zach, who has been nursing a nagging football shoulder injury for most of the season.
Hopefully, the younger Henthorn will be good to go when the basketball season tips off. He also is a pretty fair, country baseball player in the spring.

Holt High School names new principal
Published: Saturday, December 14, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 13, 2013 at 11:59 p.m.
Holt High School has a new principal.
Earlier this week, the Tuscaloosa County Board of Education approved Superintendent Elizabeth Swinford's recommendation to appoint Rachael McDaniel as the new principal of Holt High.
McDaniel is now the assistant principal of Robertsdale High School in Baldwin County, a position she's held for the past two years.
In a written statement, Deputy Superintendent Walter Davie said that McDaniel is the right fit for the job.
"The emphasis in placing the right person as the new principal for Holt High School was in finding the best fit aligned to the needs and aspirations of the student body and community at large," Davie stated. "Dr. McDaniel has a vast background in building positive learning environments, innovative programs, curriculum designed to meet the needs of all students and using data to drive instruction."
In addition to working as the assistant principal of Robertsdale High, McDaniel has served as the assistant principal of Gulf Shores Elementary and Middle School in 2011, the assistant principal of Oak Mountain High from 2006 to 2007 and as the service learning coordinator at Auburn University from 2005 to 2007.
She's also held several teaching positions in Baldwin County and Auburn.
Her highest degree earned is a doctorate in education from Auburn University.
McDaniel's start date is Jan. 6.
She replaces Neal Guy, who served as Holt's principal for the past five years. Guy is returning to the Sprayberry Education Center to serve as its principal, which is a position he held from 2004 to 2008.
Reach Jamon Smith at email@example.com or 205-722-0204.

Game Day: Flyers vs. Bruins
Tuesday, 03.3.2009 / 9:01 AM ET / Bish's Blog
By John Bishop - BostonBruins.com
Boston 1 0 1-2
First Period-1, Boston, Bergeron 7 (Chara, Savard), 14:25 (pp).
Second Period-2, Philadelphia, Upshall 7, 1:49.
Third Period-3, Philadelphia, S.Gagne 25 (Alberts, Knuble), 2:22. 4, Philadelphia, Knuble 22 (Richards, S.Gagne), 5:43. 5, Philadelphia, S.Gagne 26 (Knuble, Richards), 16:26 (pp). 6, Boston, Yelle 7 (Stuart, Bitz), 19:18 (pp).
Shots on Goal-Philadelphia 10-7-9-26. Boston 12-5-7-24.
Goalies-Philadelphia, Niittymaki. Boston, Fernandez. A-17,020 (17,565). T-2:24.
Third Period Recap: There's a reason the Flyers are 9-1-5 when tied after the second period. And they demonstrated that reason tonight, on three separate occasions.
The first Flyer goal was a team effort by two former Bruins –– forwards Mike Knuble and Andrew Alberts –– who put a shot on net that forward Simon Gagne then tipped past goaltender Manny Fernandez.
Only a three minutes later, Knuble was at it again, connecting on a centering pass from Gagne, who was parked behind the Boston net.
With just over three minutes left, the Knuble-Richards-Gagne line struck again on a power play opportunity, giving Gagne his second goal on the night and sufficiently padding the lead for the guys from Philadelphia.
The game ended 4-2, with a last-ditch attempt by Yelle, who tipped in a Mark Stuart shot over Niittymaki.
0:00 - Philadelphia wins, 4-2.
41.7 - Waaaaaaaaaaaaait a minute. Stuart shoots and Yelle scores to make it 4-2.
3:34 - Another Philadelphia goal. Gagne. Not good. See you in the locker room.
4:28 - Kobasew is in the box. Holding the stick.
4:48 - Some pushing and shoving around the PHI goal. Nothing more comes of it. Shots are 24-23, Philly.
6:51 - Another save by Niittymaki.
8:27 - Puck out of the rink...
13:27 - Hartnell is in the box for the Flyers. Roughing.
14:17 - Uh oh. The ice is tilting toward Philly. This time it's Knuble who puts it away. The score is 3-1, Philadelphia.
16:24 - Kessel's turn to lead a rush down the left side. He fires a puck into the padding of Niittymaki.
17:38 - A shot by old friend Andrew Alberts, tipped by Gagne, eludes Manny. It's 2-1, Philly.
19:08 - Icing Philly.
20:00 - Start of the Third.
Second Period Recap: If the first period was any indication of how rough-and-tumble this game would be, the second period left no doubt. Just ask forward Byron Bitz, who had his face smashed into the Flyers crossbar as he rushed the net with linemate Stephane Yelle.
Then again, no Flyers faces were spared, either.
It only took one blow to the head from B's defenseman Zdeno Chara to put Scott Hartnell flat on his back. The Bruins captain was slashed at by the Flyers forward, who received a two-minute penalty for the transgression.
The lone goal of the 20-minute skate came just a few minutes in as Flyers forward Scottie Upshall picked off a cross-ice pass in the Bruins zone to put his team on the scoreboard and even things up a bit.
The Bitz-Yelle line combined for one other strong attempt on Niitymaki, who flung himself backwards on the puck as it rebounded off of the post. The B's were halfway celebrating before the official could rule it no goal.
0:00 - A nondescript period for the B's. Shots are 17-17.
2:36 - A near miss for Bitz, who hit the post behind Niittymaki.
4:26 - Fernandez with a save on Carter.
5:13 - We've seen that before. Hartnell boarded Ryder and he got two minutes for his troubles. The B's are 1/2 on the PP.
6:51 - Fernandez with two more stops...
8:42 - Hunwick in the box for high sticking. Philly is 0/3 on the PP this evening.
9:21 - Manny with a couple of saves. The shots are 15-14, Boston.
10:22 - Lots of extra stuff going on -- it's getting ugly out there.
13:03 - Uh oh. The "monster is out of the cage." Big Zee had some words for Hartnell and put the Flyer forward on his stomach with two quick shots. Four or five Flyers pushed and shoved with the big man, but nobody really wanted to go. Chara got the extra two minutes (off a double minor for roughing). Hartnell got a minor for slashing. Philly is 0/2 on the PP.
13:58 - Another big save by Nittymaki -- this time on Blake Wheeler.
15:18 - Icing Philadelphia.
16:19 - A puck ping ponged into the pads of Niittymaki and needed to be controlled by a defenseman, but not before Yelle and Bitz crashed the net.
18:11 - An errant pass ended up on the stick of Upshall, who put it by Fernandez. Unassisted. Yuck. The score is tied, 1-1.
19:52 - Philly controls and dumps deep.
20:00 - Start of the Second. More please!
First Period Recap: Looking more like a game of Chexx bubble hockey than an NHL matchup between the East's first and fourth, the Boston Bruins found a way to one-up the Philadelphia Flyers in a (relatively) whistle-less first stanza.
Despite crisp passing and equal back-and-forth action, nothing about the first 20 minutes of play would be described as friendly, with the Eastern rivals combining for a total of five penalties.
One such power play led to Bruins centerman Patrice Bergeron smoking one past Flyers goaltender Antero Niitymaki 14:25 into play. The special teams goal was the result of a too-many-men call a minute prior.
The Flyers managed 10 shots on net during this time, with Boston coming up with a dozen shots on. Both clubs matched each other in many respects, including through a couple of outstanding plays by a few notable men.
B's defenseman Andrew Ference made a handful of key blue-line saves to keep the flow during one Boston power play, setting his linemates up for a few sweetheart shots.
Conversely, the Flyers netminder held his own against the Black & Gold's advances by snagging a couple of pucks out of midair to keep the game scoreless for most of the period. Bruins forward David Krejci connected on one shot that flew right over the downed goaltender, who gloved it down faster than the crowd could react.
Overall, a lot of bad blood came out early on, but not at the expense of the smooth style of play that has dominated a third of this hockey game.
0:00 - The B's ended the period with a flair and had two decent scoring chances in the last five seconds of the frame. Boston leads, 1-0. Shots are 12-10, Boston.
38.0 - Wideman ended that kill with a sprint out of the box and a shot on goal. But with under a minute to go, Boston is called for icing.
3:40 - Wideman is in the box for high sticking.
5:35 - Bergeron blasted that one by Nittymaki who I am sure did not even see the shot (and it may have even gone through the Philly goalie). Boston leads, 1-0. Give the assists to Chara and Savard.
6:34 - Icing Boston (on the PP). Ouch.
7:26 - Upshall is in the box for Philly (too many men), who are 0/1 on the PP.
8:06 - Now it's Krejci who needs the antivenom. He was just robbed by Niittymaki.
8:37 - The hitting is on an uptick, but Niittymaki stops the game whith a glove save...
13:43 - Michael Ryder pulled (tripped) down a Flyer. As he made his way to the box, David Krejci exchanged pleasantries with several Flyers. This is Philly's first chance on the PP.
15:53 - Chara puts Richards on his behind (with one arm), and ends a shorthanded bid by the Flyers.
17:12 - Lupul to the box -- hooking. The Bruins are on their first power play of the evening.
18:32 - Hunwick skated down the left side on a breakaway and put a solid shot into the Philly netminder.
19:04 - Fernandez's first save.
19:20 - Some early pushing and shoving between Hartnell and Thornton (and Wideman).
20:00 - Start of the First Period. How about a couple of goals early?
Philadelphia Starters: Coburn, Lupul, Carter, Hartnell, Carle, Niittymaki

4:39 p.m
|Aaron Ward was acquired at the trade deadline in '07.
"They're willing to joke about [the Trade Deadline] enough so it's a good sign," he said, joking that the guys had wondered if their head coach had been traded when Julien was late to the pre-game skate this morning. "I think our guys have responded well to everything; they hear the same rumors as everybody else and they go about their jobs and I think that's a good way to approach it."
All kidding aside, however, the seasoned coach knows that if anyone in the current lineup is traded, it can be hard on the bonds that have already been formed between the teammates.
"If you end up moving from one team to another, you'll always miss your teammates, but you eventually adjust to the other team."
But while the guys on the bench might be able to joke about the potential trades, and adjust to their new surroundings, the families behind the big men probably feel a bit more anxious about the possibility of relocation.
"The biggest thing is that you keep moving families around," Julien said. "There are a lot of things that are attached to a trade that makes it tough, and obviously not fun to do.
"Players are like that, they get comfortable and they get settled in. Nobody wants to leave. I think right now we've got something good going, everybody in the dressing room wants to be a part of it."
3:55 p.m.

"First of all, his speed is certainly an asset out there," he said this morning about Hunwick's performance last Saturday against the Washington Capitals. "But also, he's a guy that will go in the corners and along the boards and grind it out. He'll go to the front of the net like he did when he scored that goal. He's not afraid to go to the dirty areas."
Hunwick, who was moved up from defenseman to wingman, slid effortlessly into the forward role and used his perseverance to leave lasting memories in Julien's mind.
"I just felt that his skill level and his speed and everything else just fit in with that line," Julien said, adding that Hunwick will most likely play wing again tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers.
"Some players are comfortable up there and I think what I like about him is he made some good solid passes coming out of our zone last game as well. Not just good defensively, but even the breakouts from the wing," Julien noted.
Surely, the versatility of a player, especially one who gets in the corners and fights the little battles, makes coach's job a lot easier.
"I think it's important for a hockey club to have a player like that. Whenever you have that, that's certainly a luxury," Julien said.
But even if the young forward/defenseman can play both styles of game, Julien is not going to let him give up his defensive career too quickly.
"Even if he is very versatile, he's a young player who I'm more convinced than not that he's going to be a real solid defenseman down the road."

"You have to turn the page and really look forward to the next one," said Julien. "For us, it's important to win some hockey games, to play well, and I think that's what we're focused on.
"Again, that game was quite a few days away [ago], we've turned the page again and focused on tonight."
Boston, 3-4-3 in their last 10, need to become more consistent.
"It's been better," said Julien of the B's play. "We've done a lot of good things and we're certainly heading in the right direction.
"But, again, you want to fine tune yourself, so that you become the toughest team to play against by the time the playoffs come around.
"So, we've got to keep pushing ourselves to get better and hopefully we'll take another step in the right direction tonight."
12:52 p.m.
What we know...
- Manny Fernandez was the first goalie off the ice, which should indicate that he is going to be the B's starter this evening.
- Forward Milan Lucic will not play.
- Defenseman Matt Hunwick is slotted to return to the first line as a forward.
9:01 a.m.
One Day Left...
|Peter Chiarelli
And judging by the room and the reaction of Coach Julien, the end can't come soon enough.
On Monday, Julien was asked if he had given any of the players any advice on dealing with the deadline.
"To be honest with you, I can't really tell you because I haven't really discussed any of that stuff with our team," said Julien. "[We are] just going about business and [the deadline] is just something that's the reality of the game and players have to...deal with this time of year.
"And it's not just us, it's every team. Basically it's up to them to kind of deal with that right now and hopefully by Wednesday all that stuff is over and we move forward."
Julien said he has seen trades that worked out and trades that didn't.
"We've seen both sides of that and that's why...right now everybody's being careful about the types of moves that they make and the consequences behind it," said Julien. "Sometimes it's a short term [move] and in the long term it really kind of hurts you, but sometimes the short term means that you may not get this chance again, it might be worth going for it.
"There are all kinds of reasons to make trades and I think every team has their own [ideas], so I guess [they follow] their own philosophy when it comes to that."
And sometimes it's not the biggest name that gives the team the biggest boost.
"Sometimes it's not always the biggest trades that [make the difference]," said Julien. "One of the big pickups for us that helped us down the road was Jimmy Dowd, coming from Minnesota, and he just filled a really good role there on one of our lines for penalty killing faceoffs.
"He was a right hand draw man and so he became pretty valuable to our team in that stretch run. Joey Juneau had some back issues so he was able to step in and really didn't take anything away from our team."
Julien speculated as to the high number of Bruins based rumors out there in cyberspace.
"I think the fact that we're where we are right now, in first place, certainly gives a little bit more of a buzz...to our team and to the environment," he said. "It doesn't mean that you need to force your hand and make a move that I think is going to hurt you more than it's going to help you.
"We can all stand here, we can all speculate, trust me, it's a lot easier to speculate than it is to make those kinds of deals.
"There's so much that goes in to the equation here whether it's the cap, whether it's the contract of the player, the length of [the deal], and everything else," said Julien.
And maybe sometimes the best deal is the one you don't do -- like the Bruins did last year.
"At this time of year [teams] get really greedy with the players they are going to let go and so you have to balance all these things out and decide whether it's the right thing or do or not," he said.

Galactic Cowboys Disney's Spinnin' Lyrics
Last updated: 05/12/2009 12:00:00 PM
Looks like now the Beatles weren't so bad
Mr. Manson makes the Four look fab
'Cause death and evil is what sells today
And Walter Disney's spinnin' in his grave.
Grandpa's Woodstock acid wasn't brown
President lit up and passed it down
The days of outrage have all gone away
I bet that Disney's spinnin' in his grave.
Remember back to days when
Kids were kids and it was fun
And the kids didn't carry guns
While we were pleasure hunting
We got tricked like Elmer Fudd
Brainwashed by the media.
Inconvenienced by a small mistake
Mother chooses to exterminate
I wonder what the forefathers would say
The land of the free, home of the depraved
I bet that Disney's spinnin' round
I bet that Disney's spinnin'
I bet that Disney's spinnin' in his grave.

Particulate contaminants are a very important factor in the pharma industry, and understanding particulate contamination sources and their behaviour is critical to controlling their spread within production areas.
Ambient particles, potentially carrying microbial contaminants (viable particles), and nonviable particles can spread from surfaces to the surrounding air volume of a proposed clean area through airborne contamination and/or via persons, contaminating both products and the manufacturing area. The main source of viable particles to the surroundings is the operator. Other potential sources of microorganisms are pointed out in guidelines from regulatory agencies.1,2
One way of reducing contamination risk through airborne particles is to reduce the particle source strength. This can be achieved by capturing contaminants at the source; however, it is difficult to capture all contaminants and different types of protection are often required. In critical areas, for example, both barrier technology and controlled airflow directions are usually employed.High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are used to remove particles from incoming air and displace those that may be spread into the controlled area. Large amounts of HEPAfiltered air are often required, but this solution is not always reliable. The actual contamination risk can be quantified by better understanding the potential for contamination, as well as how effective HEPA filtration is in mitigating contamination risks.
The model described in this article enables the contamination risk to be calculated.
Air disturbances
Large amounts of HEPAfiltered air can produce vortices because of the high energy levels created by the air movements. A vortex can exacerbate a contamination source so it is important to reduce the occurrence of vortices to maintain a cleanroom or clean zone.
Another type of air disturbance phenomenon is turbulence. Turbulence can be described as a fluctuating, unsteady flow of fluid with large velocity differences perpendicular to the net flow direction. The science regarding turbulence is complex and not fully understood, but it can create difficulties regarding particle dispersions.

This weekend I did a massive overhaul of my Twitter followees and Facebook friends. My apologies if you happened to be part of the fat that I cut.
If I didn't recognize your name in my Facebook friend list, I removed you. No hard feelings.
And let me be honest. You're not missing much by not being able to see my page. No naked photos of my lopsided breastfeeding boobs.
Too bad, huh?
As of late, I've felt the overwhelming need to cull down the information seeping into my life because I just don't have any more room for it.
The age of social media has indeed made my life better. And as someone who is primarily in charge of it for my job, I live it every single day. Sometimes every single hour.
And that part I actually like.
But when social media is your job, the lines become blurred. Very very blurred.
On one hand, I'm intimately connected with people that I would have never met otherwise, like moms of four (or more) with whom I can commisserate.
I limit my personal Twitter followers to 300 or so of my closest friends or people that have truly interesting information to share which means when I go to events and see people who I follow on Twitter but I haven't seen in awhile, I know exactly what's going on with them.
Odd, perhaps, but thus is life in 2011.
But outside of that, I don't have the time or the eyesight, really, to take it all in. The twitter parties, cryptic tweets with five hashtags and "text" talk that I can barely understand, not to mention the multiple Facebook updates about how you went to the bathroom and "Look at my pretty pictures of the bathroom!" have become noise to me.
I can barely hear myself think let alone attempt to process and decipher the rapid fire messages of, let's face it, people I don't necessarily care about.
And really, my attention, focus, and few remnants of brain power are needed elsewhere, for people I *do* actually care a lot about.
I haven't read an actual book in years, yet here I am, reading this list of tweets about stuff I don't even really understand.
I'm the first to admit that I've neglected some of my own needs, as well as familial and friendly relationships. Not my immediate family that is, but others that I should spend more energy on but under the guise of "work" end up passing by.
I am busy, but the question I had to ask myself is exactly what am I busy doing.
So this weekend, I downloaded a book on my yet-to-be-used Kindle for iPhone, put on some metaphorical headphones, and turned up the beautiful music that is my life.

Rickets is a condition that affects bone development in children. It causes the bones to become soft and weak, which can lead to bone deformities.
Rickets in adults is known as osteomalacia or soft bones.
The most common cause of rickets is a lack of vitamin D and calcium. Vitamin D largely comes from the exposure of the skin to sunlight, but it is also found in some foods such as oily fish and eggs. Vitamin D is essential for a child to form strong and healthy bones.
In rare cases, children can be born with a genetic form of rickets. It can also develop if another condition affects how vitamins and minerals are absorbed by the body.
Read more about the causes of rickets.
Who is affected
Rickets was common in the past, but it mostly disappeared in the Western world during the early twentieth century thanks to the fortification with vitamin D of foods such as margarine and cereal. However, there has been an increase in cases of rickets in the UK in recent years.
The number of rickets cases is still relatively small - less than 900 cases were diagnosed in hospitals in England during 2012 - but studies have shown that a significant number of people in the UK have low levels of vitamin D in their blood.
Any child whose diet does not contain enough vitamin D or calcium can develop rickets, but the condition is more common in children with dark skin (as this means more sunlight is needed to get enough vitamin D), children born prematurely, and children taking medication that interferes with vitamin D.
How to prevent rickets
Rickets can easily be prevented by eating a diet that includes vitamin D and calcium, as well as spending some time in sunlight.
The hands and face only need to be exposed to the sunlight for about 15 minutes a few times a week during spring and summer to provide you with enough vitamin D.
In some cases, vitamin D supplements may be recommended to reduce the risk of rickets.
Read more about preventing rickets, including information on good sources of vitamin D and calcium.
Signs and symptoms of rickets
Rickets can lead to bone pain, poor growth and deformities of the skeleton, such as bowed legs, curvature of the spine and thickening of the ankles, wrists and knees.
Children with rickets are also more likely to fracture their bones.
Read more about the symptoms of rickets.
When to seek medical advice
If your child has any symptoms of rickets, take them to your GP for a check-up.
Your GP will usually carry out a physical examination to check for any obvious problems. They may also discuss your child's medical history, diet, family history and any medication they are taking.
A blood test to measure calcium, phosphorous and vitamin D levels can usually confirm a diagnosis of rickets, although your child may also have some X-rays or possibly a bone density scan (DEXA scan). This is a special type of X-ray that measures the calcium content in the bones.
How rickets is treated
Rickets can be successfully treated in most children by ensuring they eat foods containing calcium and vitamin D or take vitamin supplements.
If your child has problems absorbing vitamins and minerals, they may need a higher supplement dose or a yearly vitamin D injection.
Read more about treating rickets.
Symptoms of rickets
Rickets causes a child's bones to become soft and weak, which can lead to bone deformities.
The signs and symptoms of rickets can include:
As your child gets older, the symptoms of rickets may also include waddling when walking, bent bones and muscle weakness or pain.
These symptoms can also affect adults who have soft bones (osteomalacia).
Some children with rickets may also have low levels of calcium in their blood (hypocalcaemia). This can make the symptoms of rickets worse and can also cause muscle cramps, twitching, tingling in the hands and feet, and fits.
When to seek medical advice
If your child has any symptoms of rickets, such as bone pain, delayed growth, muscle weakness or skeletal problems, take them to your GP for a check-up.
Causes of rickets
Rickets usually occurs because of a lack of vitamin D and calcium, although it can also be caused by a genetic defect or another health condition.
Lack of vitamin D and calcium
The most common cause of rickets is a lack of vitamin D or calcium in a child's diet. Both are essential for children to develop strong and healthy bones.
The main sources of vitamin D are:
Calcium is commonly found in dairy products (such as milk, cheese and yoghurt) and green vegetables (such as broccoli and cabbage).
Over time, a vitamin D or calcium deficiency causes rickets in children and osteomalacia (soft bones) in adults.
See preventing rickets for more information and advice to help ensure your child gets enough vitamin D and calcium.
Who's at risk
Any child who does not get enough vitamin D or calcium can develop rickets, but there are certain groups of children who are more at risk.
For example, rickets is more common in children of Asian, African-Caribbean and Middle Eastern origin because their skin is darker and needs more sunlight to get enough vitamin D.
Babies born prematurely are also at risk of developing rickets because babies build up stores of vitamin D while in the womb.
As the amount of vitamin D in breast milk varies, the Department of Health recommends that all pregnant and breastfeeding women should take a daily supplement of 10 micrograms ( g) of vitamin D. This ensures that the mother's vitamin D requirements are met and that adequate foetal stores are built up for early infancy.
Genetic defect
Rare forms of rickets can also be inherited (passed on from a parent to a child).
For example, hypophosphatemic rickets is a genetic disorder in which the kidneys and bones deal abnormally with phosphate (calcium phosphate is what makes bones and teeth hard). This leaves too little phosphate in the blood and bones, leading to weak and soft bones.
Other types of genetic rickets affect special proteins in the body that are used by vitamin D.
Underlying conditions
Occasionally, rickets develops in children with rare forms of kidney, liver and intestinal conditions. These can affect the absorption of vitamins and minerals.
Treating rickets
Most cases of rickets are caused by a vitamin D and calcium deficiency. Therefore, rickets is usually treated by increasing a child's intake of vitamin D and calcium.
Vitamin D and calcium levels can be increased by:
Sunlight also contains vitamin D, so you may be advised to increase the amount of time your child spends outside.
Your GP will advise you about how much vitamin D and calcium your child will need to take. This will depend on their age and the cause of the rickets. If your child has problems absorbing vitamins, they may need a higher dose.
See preventing rickets for more information about dietary sources of vitamin D and calcium, as well as advice about getting vitamin D from sunlight.
Treating complications and related conditions
When rickets occurs as a complication of another medical condition, treating the underlying condition will often cure the rickets. For example, people who have kidney disease and rickets may require dialysis (treatment that replicates many of the kidneys' functions).
If your child has a bone deformity caused by rickets, such as bowed legs or curvature of the spine, your GP may suggest treatment to correct it. This might be a brace to support the affected area of your child's body as their bones grow, or they may need surgery.
Genetic rickets
For hypophosphatemic rickets (where a genetic defect causes abnormalities in the way the kidneys and bones deal with phosphate), a combination of phosphate supplements and a special form of vitamin D is required.
Children with other types of genetic rickets need very large amounts of a special type of vitamin D treatment.
Supplement side effects
It is very unusual to get side effects from vitamin D, calcium or phosphate supplements if they are given in the correct dose.
However, if the dose of vitamin D or calcium is too high, it can raise calcium levels in the blood. This can result in a condition called hypercalcaemia. Symptoms of hypercalcaemia include:
See your GP immediately if you or your child has any of these symptoms.
Preventing rickets
There are several steps you can take to help prevent rickets. These include ensuring that your child has a healthy, balanced diet and spends some time outside in the sun.
Make sure your child has a healthy, balanced diet that contains plenty of calcium and vitamin D.
Sources of vitamin D include:
Sources of calcium include:
If you have a restricted diet - for example if you are vegetarian or vegan - you may not be getting essential vitamins and minerals and may need to take vitamin supplements (see below).
Sunlight is a good source of vitamin D and is where most of our vitamin D comes from. The vitamin forms under the skin as a result of sun exposure.
In the UK, about 10-15 minutes of exposure on the hands and face when the sun is at its strongest (between 11am and 3pm) a few times a week during the spring and summer is enough for most people.
You won't get vitamin D from the sun if you wear sunscreen, but you should apply sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15 if you are outside for longer than 10-15 minutes. This will help protect your skin from sun damage.
Babies and young children have very sensitive skin that burns easily so they need to use stronger sunscreen and keep covered up when out in the sun.
In the UK, our skin isn't able to make vitamin D from sun during the winter (November to March) as the sunlight isn't strong enough. However, we can get vitamin D from our body's stores and from food sources during this period.
Read more about vitamin D and sunlight and staying safe in the sun.
Most people can get all the vitamin D they need through their diet and by getting a little sun.
However, certain groups of people have an increased risk of developing a vitamin D deficiency and may need to take supplements to avoid getting rickets and osteomalacia (the adult form of rickets). These at-risk groups are discussed below.
Pregnant and breastfeeding women
The Department of Health recommends that all pregnant and breastfeeding women should take a daily supplement of 10 micrograms ( g) of vitamin D to reduce the risk of their child developing rickets.
In the UK, the Department of Health recommends the use of vitamin drops for all babies and young children aged six months to five years (or from one month if their mother has not taken vitamin D supplements throughout pregnancy).
However, the Department of Health says infants who are fed infant formula will not need vitamin drops until they are receiving less than 500ml of infant formula a day, as these products contain added vitamin D.
It is important that children in high-risk groups take vitamin D supplements. These include children who do not get enough vitamin D from their diet and those with certain medical conditions such as kidney disease. Your GP can advise you about how much vitamin supplementation is needed.
Other at-risk groups
Other people who have an increased risk of developing a vitamin D deficiency and who may need to take supplements include:

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- A county sheriff says a suspicious substance that caused an evacuation of the state attorney general's office in Montgomery turned out to be dried toothpaste.
Reports say, Dallas County Sheriff Harris Huffman says that an inmate at the Dallas County Jail used toothpaste to seal a previously used envelope and then sent the envelope to the attorney general's office. The envelope contained a letter complaining about the jail.
The sheriff says the toothpaste had dried and turned into powder. The attorney general's office in downtown Montgomery was evacuated Aug. 14th. after the white powdery substance was discovered.
Two tests of the substance determined it was harmless, and the attorney general and his staff returned to work.

Song of Solomon

Song of Solomon The Supernatural Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #7
But most important, she paid close attention to her mentor – the father who appeared before her sometimes and told her things. (1.5.150)
Pilate's the most grounded and sensible person in the world of Song and the lady converses on a daily basis with her dad's ghost. Hmm.
Quote #8
As soon as they both regained balance, there was a huge airy sigh that each one believed was made by the other. […] There was a deep sigh again and an even more piercing chill. […] The moonlight was playing tricks on him, for he thought he saw the figure of a man standing right behind his friend. (1.8.187)
Now we know for sure that ghosts exist in Song. Even though Milkman and Guitar are completely oblivious to the sighs and the ghostly figure of a man standing next to them, we the readers know that these sounds and visions are indeed Pilate's dad. And now, it's not only Pilate and Macon who have experienced ghost encounters, but Milkman and Guitar have too (even if they don't realize it), making the witnesses of ghosts a grand total of five (Pilate, Macon, Guitar, Milkman, Freddie, and maybe even Ruth. The lady talks to her dad's grave almost every night). The reason we're so obsessed with who's seen a ghost is that, if ghosts exist, then anything is possible. Including flying.
Quote #9
Perhaps this woman is Circe. But Circe is dead. This woman is alive. That was as far as he got, because although the woman was talking to him, she might in any case still be dead – as a matter of fact, she had to be dead. Not because of the wrinkles, and the face so old it could not be alive, but because out of the toothless mouth came the strong, mellifluent voice of a twenty-year old girl. (2.10.240)
For some reason, we're not totally obsessed with finding out whether Circe is a dream, a mirage, a figment of the imagination, or a ghost. Circe is Circe, and it seems to make perfect sense that she is still around and kicking, living with a pack of inbred, nicely groomed dogs. It's just another day in the life of Milkman Dead. We're becoming accustomed to the Dead world, where we have to suspend our sense of reality or throw it out the window because, what is reality anyway and who decides?

Analysis: Steaminess Rating
Exactly how steamy is this story?
We are tempted to bump our rating up to an R, since the sexual elements running through Rebecca always seem more or less dark and twisted on some level. But, dark and twisted alone don't an R rating make. Rebecca has very little explicit sexual content and readers young and old will puzzle over who does what to whom (sexually speaking) and who wants to do what to whom. Daphne du Maurier's 1938 classic might not fog your glasses, but it will probably make you think about sex, and the rules and norms for having it or not having it in various societies.

Hampshire Treasures
Volume 1 ( Winchester City District)
Page 73 - Crawley
|Previous page (Volume 1, Page 71)

Originally known as Crawanlea, "glade of the crows", the Manor of Crawley was granted to Frithestan, Bishop of Winchester, by King Edward the Elder in 909. The Domesday Book lists the Bishop of Winchester holding the manor in demesne, with a tenant called Hugh. A dramatic episode occurred in 1274 when the Sheriff of Hampshire seized herds of cattle and sheep in lieu of payment which the bishop had failed to make to the king. The bishop complained that five horses, 43 cattle and 350 sheep had been driven from Crawley to Winchester and impounded for two nights in Winchester Castle. As a result of the bishop's complaint the sheriff was ordered to release the animals on condition that the bishop gave security for the payment of the money.
The Manor of Crawley remained part of the property of the bishopric until the Commonwealth period. In 1648 Crawley was included in the sale of episcopal possessions, and was sold to John Pigeon. At the Restoration the manor reverted to the bishop, being taken over by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners in 1869.
The old Crawley Court in the village of Crawley was pulled down by Adam Kennard in the 1870's and a new building, in the grounds but not on the same site, was designed by Pepys Cockerill in Elizabeth-Jacobean style. This house was demolished in the early 1970's to make way for the new I.B.A. building.
During the last century many of the cottages in Crawley village were bought by Kennard, a London banker who became High Sheriff of Hampshire in 1885. In 1900 Kennard sold out to Otto Ernst Philippi from Hamburg, who modernised most of the cottages by putting in wooden floors, providing more windows and improving the dwellings to modern standards.

The 10k is due later today, and I'm sure it will have addl facts of importance, but for now, some observations. Advanced Circuits, pretty much flat YOY and QOQ with only modest quarterly revenue gains. AFM, same.Anodyne, same.Fox has improved dramatically over 2009, QOQ, even though not typically seasonal. Q1 was 20m revs, 29.9m, 36.9m to 34.6m in Q4. Most revs still come from mountain biking (and most from Europe), not the niche market of the Raptor (although the Raptor is a higher margin item).HALO is known for its seasonality. Q1 26m, 29.5m, 35.5m and finally 46.0m in Q4.Staffmark revs have increased 15-20% QOQ in 2009: 162m, 169m, 193m and 219m. (MAN reported on 3/9/10 that USA Q1 2010 hiring "dipped" while Europe was up. We will see what impact that has, if any, on Q1 '10.)Advanced and Fox are currently the two profit centers with about $16m income each for 2009, with AFM at about 5m, Anodyne at 7m, Halo 5m and Staffmark at 5m (excluding the one time charges in Q2). (The income numbers are mostly correct ... my spreadsheet has the numbers for Q2-Q4 and I extrapolated Q1 instead of looking Q1 numbers up.)I thought it interesting there was no discussion in the CC or Q&A about Q1 '10, in light of the fact that Q1 is almost over.As to those who are anxious for a distribution increase (or predicting same), I will remind you of the Q3 CC where Manuel said we would get an increase when (a) a couple of acquisitions were completed AND (b) we had 2-3 consecutive quarters of core business improvement.Lastly, for those who worry that the distribution in 2009 exceeded CAD, once again: (1) CODI is still carrying +$100m in undistributed cap gains on the books (although admittedly cap gains are not the best source for regular distributions); (2) Even after the distributions in 2009 (and paid 1/10), CODI has a $20m surplus of CAD on the books; and (3) The CAD surplus will increase to $25.5m after the presumed April $.34 distribution (see below). So even if we don't get CAD of $.49/share each quarter of 2010, and it dips below the distribution of $.34/share, the surplus CAD has the potential of making up the shortfall for several quarters.Q4 2009 CAD = $17.9m; add the CAD carryover = $20.0m; less the presumed 4/10 distribution of $.34/share ($12.44m) = $25.45m CAD carry-forward.GLTA.
Thanks for the executive summary. Sounds like a good CC. Stock is acting quite well considering the price spike followed by the sell off. For those who wish they had traded here today, got to keep in mind that in addition to the gain from buy price to sell price, there is income tax to pay on the adjusted basis. In a nutshell, any distributions that show up as return of capital have to reduce your basis. This is an advantage of a MLP if you buy and hold. Of course, if you hold in a 401k, that is not a concern. On the subject of 401k's, I noticed there was no unrelated business income reported this year on the k1 which is good news for me since I am holding in a 401k.

A former student of the late Hans Selye, MD, PhD, says: "Stress used to be a concept that concerned only physical scientists. Dr Selye's work has made it a part of medicine as well."
Hans Selye, an endocrinologist who served for almost half a century on the medical faculties of the University of Montreal and McGill University, died at his home in Montreal on Oct 16. He was founder and director of the International Institute of Stress and had for many years headed the Institute of Experimental Medicine and Surgery at the University of Montreal. Early in his scientific career, Selye helped to establish the role that adrenal and pituitary hormones play in the body's biological reactions to external stimuli, or stress. He continued to work in this area until shortly before his death, conducting laboratory studies that foreshadowed the development of many therapeutic modalities and exploring the complicated relationships

The unmistakable smell of Southeast Asian spices, boiling coconut milk, and savoury curry powders had me salivating with my first breath through the threshold. Though the foggy smokiness of the place had me confused. If something was burning, at least I couldn't smell it.
I decided to try this restaurant on a recommendation from a fellow Vancouver based food blogger, "Fat Panda". After seeing a picture of her meal on Instagram and not recognizing the name, I made plans to go. With me was my Malaysian food loving companion. "Fat Panda" swore by the roti and laksa, which happens to be two of my favourite dishes, ones I grew up eating. So naturally I had to take her up on her suggestion. A food blogger doesn't refer to something as being "the bomb" lightly.
It was lunch, the sun was out, and streams of light filtered into the room. This ended up highlighting the overwhelming clouds of smoke that lingered in the air.
There was not one server assigned to one table. We had three different hands seating us, taking our order, and serving us our plates. It was hardly busy with the number of servers running the floor, and the six other tables of guest seated and served. Yet you could feel that the staff were rushing. Chopsticks came dirty, we sent them back only to have them returned wet. One of the girls dropping a used fork off the stack of plates she was busing. This fell on to my guest. I simple sorry would have been the clear fix, but without a word she looked to my companion, as she waited for her to pick up the soiled utensil off the floor. I little questionable.
Any attempts to try Malaysian dishes that are new to me is foiled, when I leaf through the menu and spot my favourites immediately. At least this way I get a good reference point between the different restaurants I try.
"Roti canai". The order comes with two pieces of the signature Malaysian soft sweet bread. The crust is pan fried to a golden crisp. And the dish is severed with a spicy curry dip. I knew this would be disappointing just by looking at it. You could see the large amount of oil glistening and shining off every fold. This definitely translated into its taste. It was good, but not what we expected. We wished for fluffy bread, over the crispy edges that we got. Luckily the curry was mild and flavourful, and as a result, the saving grace of the dish.
"Stay chicken". Bite sized pieces of meat on skewers; marinated with lemon grass, turmeric, onions, and coriander. The four sticks per order was served with a delicious peanut sauce for dipping in. As a whole this was only good, nothing outstanding. Filling chicken, tender enough and made tastier with the sauce. You can't go wrong with a peanut sauce. Crunchy with a hint of sweet.
The entrees came right after, with no time in between to enjoy our appetizers. We rushed our eating, less dishes got cold. All our plates were served in silence. I don't need small talk, but a little explanation as to what is landing on our table, and a few well wishes for a good meal would be nice.
"Nasi Goreng". A popular Malaysian style fried rice dish made with beef, shrimp, egg, tomato, and green beans. I liked the raw tomatoes segments and raw cucumber slices. This is defiantly an acquired taste. They added a crunch and a level of freshness that you just can't get with cooked vegetables. This is a very Malaysian thing.
I never knew there were so many variations to laksa, until my visit here and the reflection of their menu. My favourite dish "laksa" so it was quite the challenge to choose between the three varieties that they serve. The "Malaysian style" is made with a stronger curry essence. The "Singaporean style" is described as being more coconuty. And the "Assam seafood" flavour was a little more sour than the others, with the taste of tamarind. I stuck with what I knew and chose the "Singapore laksa". Spicy vermicelli with shrimps, shredded chicken, bean spouts, a boiled egg, tofu puffs, and fish cakes; all swimming in spicy coconut soup. It was delicious and one of the more authentic varieties I have tried. The portion was plentiful, the broth flavourful, and the ingredients came in an abundance.
Would I come back? – No. The trip out to New Westminster is a little far for me, especially as we have a few good Malaysian restaurants in Vancouver. Restaurants that are not only closer to my home, but with easier parking and friendlier service. However if I did, it would be to try their other two flavours of laksa.
Would I recommend it? – Yes. Their roti might not be the best, but their laksa was up there. And I suspect this may be one of the few, if not the only Malaysian option in New Westminster. Don't deny your cravings.

BitBeat: China Dings Bitcoin Again
Welcome to BitBeat, your daily dose of crypto-current events, written by Paul Vigna and Michael J. Casey.
Bitcoin Latest Price: $460.89, down 7.9% (via CoinDesk)
Crossing Our Desk:
- Beijing still seems to matter for the price of bitcoin. Given that Chinese trading in the digital currency has dried up considerably since the government first started cracking down on banks' interactions with bitcoin businesses in December, you'd think the market's capacity to be surprised might have similarly dried up.
But here we are, once again, with reports of some negative statements by officials at the People's Bank of China and bitcoin's international price is down sharply. Specifically, today's $40 drop is being attributed a report in Caixin Online that central bank officials had held meetings with various commercial banks and reiterated their concerns about banks providing services to bitcoin businesses.
The report said that during the closed-door meetings, the officials "specifically criticized various commercial banks for continuing to do business with BTC China," the country's largest bitcoin exchange.
The PBOC had earlier set an April 15 deadline for banks to cut off bitcoin firms' accounts, a development that weighed heavily on bitcoin's price and caused a further drop in trading in China. But BTC China CEO Bobby Lee said he never received notification from his bankers and so continued to operate after that date. He wasn't available this afternoon (New York time) for comment.
Friday's report comes just two weeks before the Global Bitcoin Summit in Beijing, which organizers are billing as the "first global bitcoin conference in China." It will feature prominent bitcoin personalities such as entrepreneur Roger Ver and journalist and Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin. (Michael Casey)
- When you think about what bitcoin is literally, there's not much there. Just strings of computer code. That's it, really. But when you think about what bitcoin is figuratively, it becomes something else completely.
The cryptocurrency keeps being a subject of interest to the arts community. The latest example of that was a one-night show on Thursday called "Proof of Work" at a The Sub gallery in the mission district of San Francisco, which called upon artists to explore the connections between digital technologies and the human condition.
The piece that most directly speaks to the bitcoin Zeitgeist was "Free Lunch" by Oakland artist David Kim, pictured above, a multimedia piece that he completed just in time for the show. It shows Dorian Nakamoto – the man named by Newsweek in March as the creator of bitcoin – as he attempts to evade the media during the frenzy after the story broke.
Mr. Kim initially named the piece "Evasive Maneuvers," but was convinced to change it by somebody at the show who suggested "Free Lunch." (The title refers to something Nakamoto said.) Mr. Kim wasn't a bitcoiner before this; he said he'd heard of bitcoin only in the popular culture, but began doing more research when he was asked to be in the show. From his research, he thought the story of Dorian Nakamoto was the most intriguing.
"I sat there for hours, digging into the whole situation," he said. "That's when I was inspired to do the image of Dorian."
The piece is for sale, Mr. Kim said. (Paul Vigna)

Iron Hand - Dire Straits (mark Knopfler)
Tabbed by: Morten Hansen
Email: email@example.com
Bm A Bm
With all the clarity of dream
A Bm
The sky so blue, the grass so green
Bm A Bm
The rank and file and the navy blue
Em A F#m Bm
The deep and strong, the straight and true
Bm A Bm
The blue line they got the given sign
A Bm
The belts and boots march forward in time
Bm A Bm
The wood and leather the club and shield
Em A F#m Bm
Swept like a wave across the battlefield
Bm A Bm
Now with all the clarity of dream
A Bm
The blood so red, the grass so green
A Bm
The gleam of spur on chestnut flank
Em A F#m Bm
The cavalry did burst upon the ranks
Bm A Bm
Oh the iron will and iron hand
A Bm
In england's green and pleasant land
A Bm
No music for the shameful scene
Em A F#m Bm
That night they said it had even shocked the queen
Bm A Bm
Well alas we've seen it all before
Bm A Bm
Knights in armour, days of yore
Bm A Bm
The same old fears and the same old crimes
Em A F#m Bm
We haven't changed since ancient times
It sounds allright if you just make some fingerplay between the verses and just
simplifies it doing the verses
My suggestion is something like this:
(left hand holds Bm - only right hand fingerplay, keep playing this over
when you shift the chords, it will sound allright)
Well done, but i think my tab sounds clouser to the original:
...like it´s played four times at the beginning of the song.

I wouldn't count on Duke letting up, Heel fans.
Carolina isn't a good team and they have a ton of talent. Yeah...Roy is a GREAT gameday coach. Definitely in the same category as K.
I'm not even sure how to respond to this, it's just a dumb post.

Does Wall Street Owe Main Street An Apology?
Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio summed up at today's Senate hearing the anger from tens of millions of Americans on the proposed $700 billion bailout of the financial sector. Wall Street, he argued, "didn't care one bit" what its mortgage practices — the ones that created today's mess — were doing to neighborhoods in Cleveland and around the country.
Then came his interesting but odd question: Do you think Wall Street owes the American people an apology?
Mr. Brown didn't quite specify what the apology would do. Some Wall Street executives probably would be happy to offer one — in writing and on camera — in exchange for a $700 billion bailout.
But the question went to the heart of the trouble that Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke face in selling the unprecedented emergency plan to Congress and the public over the course of a week.
Mr. Bernanke was a Princeton University economics professor before joining government earlier this decade (first as a Fed governor, then as a White House economic adviser, then as Fed chairman). Mr. Bernanke earlier noted that he was criticized upon taking the job for his lack of Wall Street ties. "I've never worked on Wall Street," he explained. "I don't have those interests and those connections." Mr. Bernanke sought to explain repeatedly that if credit markets don't function, jobs will be lost, houses will face foreclosure and the economy will contract.
Responding to Mr. Brown's question, Mr. Bernanke again said Main Street is tied to Wall Street through credit. "Wall Street made a lot of mistakes and regulators made a lot of mistakes." Under follow-up questioning again, Mr. Bernanke was forced to note that Wall Street "is an abstraction" — a statement even more true this week after the two surviving independent investment banks converted into bank holding companies.
Mr. Paulson is from Wall Street, leading Goldman Sachs before joining the Bush administration.
"I share the outrage that people have," he said. "It's embarrassing to look at this. I think it's embarrassing for the United States of America. There is a lot of blame to go around" for irresponsible lending practices, overly complex securities and rating-agency failures.
"Let's fix the problem to have the least negative impact on them and then let's go out and deal with all these problems and figure out how to make sure that we minimize the likelihood they'll happen again," Mr. Paulson said. –Sudeep Reddy

I would say Donaire Mares because that is the bigger fight and the winner is on to fairly big things in the low weight classes.
Martinez-Golovkin is a very nice fight also, but I doubt it makes the winner a bankable star.
Based on purely which is the better fight without thinking about where it leads, I couldn't pick they should both be top-shelf contests. I could see Donaire eating up Mares but by the same token I could see Golovkin smashing Martinez but I think the guys involved are all close enough to at least make it a quality fight before such a scenario really took hold.
