When Americans are asked what the most important issues are in this presidential election, they cite jobs and the economy. By any objective measure, the Obama presidency has been one of poor economic growth. No matter what hand a President is dealt, at some point, he owns the record. Since Mr. Obama is poised to be re-elected, some other factors must determine who we choose to vote for.
Do we want to vote for someone who looks like us?
In the 2008 heyday of hope and change, strong minority turnout helped push Mr. Obama to victory, especially in such swing states as Virginia and New Mexico. But as another election approaches, the minority thrill is gone. According to the Census Bureau, Hispanic voter registration has fallen 5% across the U.S., to about 11 million. Black registration is down by 7%
About 40% of whites who voted in 2008 crossed the racial divide and voted for a black man, while only 4% of blacks who voted did so for a white man. Most of Hilary Clinton's supporters in the Democratic presidential primaries in 2008 were women, and for many, that was her greatest asset. We remain racially polarized on a political level in 2012, as the following chart shows. Each candidate's total support among voters is broken down by race.
If we are ever to become a truly multicultural society, we need to make choices based on issues rather than appearance, race, ethnicity or gender. But how de we do that when so many voters are either incapable or don't care to understand the issues and have no concept of macroeconomics? It's almost perverse that we make naturalized citizens learn about our constitution and pass a civics test before earning their passports. Only about a quarter of the native born electorate could pass these tests. Is it any wonder how poor a job public education is doing in science and math compared to the rest of the world when in our public schools we don't even properly teach our children their future rights and obligations as citizens?
Do we want to elect someone who promises to look out for us even if we doubt the ability to deliver?
President Obama has consistently promised that he would make the economy fairer and more level. Somehow his policies have had the opposite effect. The most recent report by the Census Bureau indicates that annual household income fell in 2011 for the fourth straight year. Between 2009 and 2011, income for the middle fifth of the population declined 1%, while income for the top fifth increased 4%. Seniors, dependent on their savings saw interest rates fall by over 31% (Jan. 23, 2009 to date), while inflation further reduced the value of their savings by 9%.
President Obama promised to create jobs. Since January 2009 the civilian labor-force participation rate has fallen by 2.2 percentage points, representing a loss of over five million jobs. His policies, though, have juiced the stock market. An investor willing and able to take risks profited by over 65% if he bought stocks tracking the Dow at President Obama's inauguration. The administration's policies are hurting the poor more than they are hurting the workers and net taxpayers of America, i.e., the millionaires and billionaires.
Do we chose ideology over prosperity?
Without doubt, some of what comes out of the Republican Party with regards to social issues is simply hateful and fighting the tide of history. Opposition to gay marriage and "legitimate" rape are only two dark examples. The president's economic policies have clearly hurt most Americans, whereas the policies advocated by the Republicans at least have a chance to improve the economy, and yet the Republicans are behind in the election race. Is it possible that America has reached a tipping point and finally prefers the "social equality" espoused by Democrats (equal shares of the pie) instead of unequal shares of a growing pie, also/known/as capitalism? Mr. Romney inelegantly makes the case that the "takers" in the 47% of Americans who do not pay income taxes, are now poised to overwhelm the "makers" he seeks to represent. Mr. Romney may know more about economics than Mr. Obama, but the public thinks he doesn't understand the economic problems of average Americans.
Do we choose to vote for someone we want to spend time with?
As we approach the first presidential debate this evening, how will Americans decide who wins? Most of the audience will have long ago decided who they will vote for, if they vote (less than 60% of eligible voters will cast ballots.) Will any of the few truly undecideds in the electorate be swayed by the arguments that can be communicated within this rigid time frame?
Apart from their purely show-business aspect, do the debates in any significant way enhance our appreciation of the minds or the characters of the presidential candidates? Mostly the debates will show how quickly the candidates can organize and regurgitate sound bites and parry attacks without becoming flustered. A fast response has little to do with genuine thought, which requires brooding over a subject, laboriously working through its complications. Quickness of response, so central to the debater, is a useful but minor skill that has little to do with handling difficult questions and serious problems.
In the final analysis, Americans usually vote in presidential elections for the candidate with the greater empathy, or likability. The clear exception here would be Richard Nixon, who it seems nobody liked very much. In this election, it's not even close. Mr. Romney is another rich old white man, and Mr. Obama is seriously cool!

WHO'S ON WORST? By Filip Bondy. Doubleday. 253 pages. $24.95
It happens every spring; baseball fans believe in a first-place finish, no matter how bad things went the previous season, and baseball players think an All-Star appearance is just a few months away.
This spring, Filip Bondy provides a delightful, quick-read twist on the bests and firsts of baseball culture.
"Who's on Worst?" is an authoritative romp, humorously spot on, through Bottom Ten lists across the national pastime. The title play on the old Abbott and Costello routine includes the worst hitters, pitchers and fielders "of all time" and then some.
Bondy also evaluates the "Worst Managers," "Greatest Goats" and "Most Overpaid Yankees."
Of course, it's all subjective, which is part of the fun. Why rank Bill Bergen No. 1 on the worst hitters list ahead of Bob Uecker, Mario Mendoza and Rafael Belliard? Well, the Brooklyn catcher did have an 0-for-45 slump in 1909. And he did hit .139 one year, with a .170 lifetime batting average.
Worst fielder? Surprisingly, not Marv Throneberry or Chuck Knoblauch? Almost Jose Canseco, but no. It's Dick "Dr. Strangeglove" Stuart, thanks to a big-league record 29 errors at first base for the 1963 Red Sox.
Bondy, a veteran New York Daily News sports columnist, comes through with solid depth to his mediocrity analysis.
Bottom 10 summary lists complete each chapter, and the accompanying one-line comments shine.
Carl Pavano is No. 2 among "Most Overpaid Yankees" (after Kei Igawa). "He had the nerve," Bondy writes, "to get better again in Minnesota."
Photo captions offer more zinger opportunities. On Tommy Lasorda, dishonored for the lousy playing career that preceded a nice managerial run: "When he was managing, Tommy Lasorda loved to throw batting practice for the Dodgers. Unfortunately, he did a lot of that while he was still a major-league pitcher."
Best "Worst" chapters? Tie between "The Oddest Ballplayers of All-Time" (a list that starts with tiny Eddie Gaedel and includes Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders) and "The Worst Teammates Ever" (Jimmy Piersall, John Rocker, Dave Kingman, etc.).
Alas, track star Herb Washington makes two lists: "Oddest Ballplayer" as the Oakland A's designated runner and "Greatest Goat" for getting picked off first base in the 1974 World Series. But that's just a sliver of this anti-hero debate.
Reviewer Gene Sapakoff is a Post and Courier sports columnist.

American Express Credit Card Limit Increase Tutorial
|Email Print
Regularly requesting credit limit increases, if done correctly, can increase your credit score and mitigate the effects of canceling credit cards. This post will explain how to navigate the menus of American Express' online interface so that you can request a credit limit increase without triggering a hard credit inquiry. I have done this successfully myself several times.
Begin by logging into your American Express account. On the Summary of Accounts screen, click on the link that says "See all Account Services." It should be located in the right hand side under Manage Your Account. If you can't find it, here's a screenshot of how it looks on my account (blue box around the link):
The next screen will list your cards, click on the little yellow arrow to the left of the card. This will expand the account services for that card. Click on the Credit and Balance Transfers tab, it will be the third one. Under the Line of Credit label, there will be a smaller link that says "Increase your Line of Credit."
After you click that link, you'll be prompted to enter in the 4-digit security code on the face of your card. Once you enter those digits, you will be faced with this screen:
From here, you just need to enter in your desired credit limit (not the increase, but the credit limit you want) and your income. Click submit and you will either get a screen congratulating you on your new line of credit, available for use within 15 minutes, or you won't. Don't abuse this (do it once every six months) or you'll get a call from AMEX's Financial Reviews department for further confirmation (according to users of Fatwallet). There have also been reports that it's simple as long as you keep the limit under $25,000.
Just as an FYI, to get the screenshots for this tutorial I actually requested a credit limit increase. I had a credit limit of $20,000 and was approved for an increase to $25,000 on my American Express TrueEarnings card.

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Process Development Jobs Still the Most...
AbbVie and Galapagos said today they will extend their potential billion-dollar-plus clinical development collaboration of GLPG0634 beyond rheumatoid arthritis (RA), for which the companies are about to launch a Phase IIb trial, to include Crohn's disease as well.
Galapagos will fund a Phase IIa/b study of GLPG0634, with the goal of bringing the oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor for JAK1 quickly into a Phase III trial. The Phase II study will measure both the drug candidate's induction of disease remission and early maintenance of beneficial effects in Crohn's disease. The 20-week study of 180 Crohn's disease patients will start early next year, and take place at the same time as the Phase IIb RA trial.
In return for completion of the Phase II Crohn's study—expected to occur in the second quarter of 2015—AbbVie will pay Galapagos $50 million, then fund and take over clinical development beyond Phase II, including regulatory and commercialization activities.
As for the rheumatoid arthritis study, AbbVie said it will license the program upon successful completion of the Phase IIb trial, and assume sole responsibility for Phase III clinical development and global manufacturing.
"Our experience within gastroenterology, combined with a novel alternative treatment for this disease, may provide a greater benefit to patients in the future," Scott Brun, M.D., vp, pharmaceutical development, AbbVie, said in a statement.
No other terms of the expanded collaboration were disclosed by the companies. AbbVie is the branded-drug spin-off of Abbott Laboratories, which last year paid Galapagos $150 million up-front for rights to develop and commercialize GLPG0634. At the time, Abbott also agreed to license the RA program for a one-time $200 million fee upon completion of Phase II studies, if the studies met certain pre-agreed criteria.
Abbott also agreed to pay Galapagos up to $1 billion in additional payments tied to achieving undisclosed developmental, regulatory, commercial, and sales-based milestones, plus tiered double-digit royalties on net sales upon commercialization. Belgian-owned Galapagos retains co-promotion rights to GLPG0634 in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg.
GLPG0634 is one of five Galapagos pipeline molecules being studied for inflammatory indications, all with at least preliminary data scheduled for release by mid-2015 or earlier. One of those five is another selective JAK1 inhibitor in Phase II studies for lupus and psoriasis, GSK2586184 (formerly GLPG0778), in-licensed by GlaxoSmithKline in 2012.
Galapagos is also developing a third selective JAK1 inhibitor, GLPG0187, which is a novel integrin receptor antagonist currently in a Phase Ib patient study in metastasis. Another drug candidate, GLPG0974, is the first inhibitor of GPR43 to be evaluated clinically for the treatment of IBD, in a program that is currently in a proof-of-concept Phase I study.
AbbVie's pipeline includes mid- to late-stage clinical programs for diseases that include hepatitis C, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, axial spondyloarthritis, multiple myeloma, and endometriosis.

on February 6, 2013 - 11:12 PM
The Buffalo Sabres continue to be the NHL's worst faceoff team by a considerable margin so they spent a good deal of time on that area at practice Wednesday in First Niagara Center. But coach Lindy Ruff added a twist to the drill: He let the offensive team win the draw and forced the defensive team into quick coverage mode.
If they didn't cover the shooters in time, they did push-ups on the ice. And that included the goalies. Jason Pominville quickly fired shots off the first two draws and a team that included Ryan Miller dropped and hit the ice.
"If you lose the draw clean, my point today was it's almost impossible to get in the shot lane," Ruff said. "Pommer proved it on the first one. Then he proved it again on the second one. ... The center man can't lose it clean at all costs because it doesn't give me that one second to get in the lane."
The Sabres got destroyed in the circle in Tuesday night's loss at Ottawa, 37-15, and are winning just 41.3 percent of their draws for the season, a stat compounded by their troubles on assignments. No other team entered Wednesday at less than 45.3 and 20 teams had won at least 49 percent.
"We chased the puck 70 percent of the time because we didn't win a draw," Ruff said. "That's a big deficit to come back from. We get it 30 percent of the time, they get it 70 percent. That's hard hockey. Our faceoffs have to get better."
Cody Hodgson went 8-10 on draws against the Senators – while the rest of the team was just 7-27. Steve Ott leads the team at 48.8 percent.
"You're always putting yourself in a hard position when you're chasing the puck after you lose a draw," said Ott, who shifts from wing to take many faceoffs. "... It can save you 15-20 seconds at the start of a shift. When you're constantly chasing, by the third period you're going to be a lot more tired."
The Sabres were scheduled to have Wednesday off but Ruff asked the team's leadership to change the schedule and practice lasted nearly an hour.
Under the new collective bargaining agreement between the league and NHL Players Association, teams are to get two days off a month at home and two on the road and they must be planned in advance. They cannot be changed "absent compelling circumstances," and it's assumed that a mere slump does not qualify.
"We don't need a day off right now," Ott said. "We need to focus on things that will improve our club. Collectively we all wanted to come in and skate and get something out of today."
"For us, it's education. I don't think it's a punishment day," said Miller.
In an email to The News Wednesday evening, NHLPA director of communications Jonathan Weatherdon said the group is reviewing the matter.
General Manager Darcy Regier said the team could conceivably send struggling backup goaltender Jhonas Enroth on a conditioning assignment to Rochester to get some work but is not currently planning that move. Enroth is 0-2 this season and his loss Tuesday in Ottawa kept him winless since Nov. 26, 2011.
"We will keep him here to work with goaltending coach Jim Corsi," Regier said. "We know Jhonas can play and we saw how he has played in the past. His save percentage last season was very respectable [.917] and we still think he's a good young goalie."
The Sabres had just five defensemen in practice Wednesday as Mike Weber sat out for a maintenance day while Christian Ehrhoff (undetermined muscle), Andrej Sekera (ankle) and Robyn Regehr (ankle) also sat. Ruff said Ehrhoff is doubtful for tonight's game against Montreal. Regehr and Sekera are not ready to play either.
Patrick Kaleta returned to practice after suffering his latest neck injury last week against Toronto and being hospitalized overnight. He could play this weekend.
Asked if he was ready to go, Kaleta said, "That's a bad question because I'm available whenever the coaches need me, no matter what the case may be. ... If they need me and think I benefit the lineup, I'll do whatever it takes."

Stetson set a new school-record with 14 three-pointers including eight in the first half alone as the Hatters defeated visiting Ball State 78-66 Sunday afternoon at the Edmunds Center.
Shanasa Sanders and Victoria McGowan each hit four three-pointers and finished with 16 points apiece, while Sasha Sims added 14 points and collected four rebounds.
"Everyone did an awesome job today," Sanders said. "Everyone found the open player and everyone was knocking down shots. Overall it was a good win and a good game for us."
Stetson shot 50% from the field (29-for-58) and 50% from behind the arc (14-for-28). The 14 threes surpassed the previous school mark of 12, which was reached twice last season.
"We knocked down a lot of threes because that shot was open," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "Ball State packed the paint so of course the three is going to be open. (Hitting three pointers) opens up everything for us. It makes you a lot harder to guard. Every day we get up a lot of shots in practice."
The Hatters also recorded 24 assists in the game, including a career-high nine from Jama Sharp and seven more from McGowan.
"I thought we shared the ball very well," Bria said. "It's been a long time since we have had that many assists. I really like what we are doing, we are taking good shots, we are working to get great shots, and we are sharing the ball. I am really proud of our offensive effort."
Similar to the Bethune-Cookman game on Tuesday, the Hatters led nearly wire-to-wire, but had to hold off several Ball State (2-4) runs. Stetson saw a nine-point first-half lead cut to three, and a 19-point second half advantage trimmed to seven.
"Our defense was better today, but that's the area we have to improve on the most," Bria said. "We have to get where we are getting several stops in a row. We do it in spurts here and there, but we have to do a better job of doing it over a period of time."
Also filling up the stat sheet on Sunday was Cherisse Burris with nine points, Simone Taylor with eight, and Ashley Dennis and Ashley Buis with six points each.
"I thought Ashley Dennis had a great game, she came off the bench and really sparked us," Bria said. "Jama Sharp had nine assists and Victoria had seven. Those two players can score and they can hit three, but for them to share the ball was really impressive. I thought Sasha Sims had a great game for us. She hit some big threes and did very well defensively for us."
The Hatters finished a busy month of November with a 3-3 record. Stetson has also won seven straight and 19 of its last 20 games at home.
"We'd like to be 6-0, every coach in the country would like to be 6-0," Bria said. "But I look at today's game, and then I look back at the Hofstra game, we are so much better now than we were that game. My measure is as long as we continue to improve and get better both offensively and defensively, then I am happy with where we are.
"I like it that we are all still healthy. But we do need a little bit of break. We have put in a lot of games, but it was good for our players to have that test and play through some adversity and through some fatigue."
After an eight-day break, Stetson will host its annual Volusia County Schoolchildren Day on Tuesday, Dec. 4. The morning tip-off is set for 11 a.m. at the Edmunds Center.
Notes: Stetson played six games in the first 17 days of the season, but will play just twice over the next 19 days as the student-athletes prepare for fall semester final exams … Stetson's 10-0 run in the second half was its longest of the season so far. Sims and Sanders each hit back-to-back threes and Burris and Taylor each converted lay-ups during the run ... The last time Stetson recorded 24+ assists in a game was Jan. 3, 1998, 26 assists in a 102-99 overtime loss to UCF ... As they have done all season, Ball State dressed just eight players for the game - all eight played 20 minutes or more.

Interplay between steps and nonequilibrium effects in surface diffusion for a lattice-gas model of O/W(110)

The authors consider the influence of steps and nonequilibrium conditions on surface diffusion in a strongly interacting surface adsorbate system. This problem is addressed through Monte Carlo simulations of a lattice-gas model of O/W(110), where steps are described by an additional binding energy EB at the lower step edge positions. Both equilibrium fluctuation and Boltzmann-Matano spreading studies indicate that the role of steps for diffusion across the steps is prominent in the ordered phases at intermediate coverages. The strongest effects are found in the p(2×1) phase, whose periodicity Lp is 2. The collective diffusion then depends on two competing factors: domain growth within the ordered phase, which on a flat surface has two degenerate orientations [p(2×1) and p(1×2)], and the step-induced ordering due to the enhanced binding at the lower step edge position. The latter case favors the p(2×1) phase, in which all adsorption sites right below the step edge are occupied. When these two factors compete, two possible scenarios emerge. First, when the terrace width L does not match the periodicity of the ordered adatom layer (L/Lp is noninteger), the mismatch gives rise to frustration, which eliminates the effect of steps provided that EB is not exceptionally large. Under these circumstances, the collective diffusion coefficient behaves largely as on a flat surface. Second, however, if the terrace width does match the periodicity of the ordered adatom layer (L/Lp is an integer), collective diffusion is strongly affected by steps. In this case, the influence of steps is manifested as the disappearance of the major peak associated with the ordered p(2×1) and p(1×2) structures on a flat surface. This effect is particularly strong for narrow terraces, yet it persists up to about L ≈ 25Lp for small EB and up to about L ≈ 500Lp for EB, which is of the same magnitude as the bare potential of the surface. On real surfaces, similar competition is expected, although the effects are likely to be smaller due to fluctuations in terrace widths. Finally, Boltzmann-Matano spreading simulations indicate that even slight deviations from equilibrium conditions may give rise to transient peaks in the collective diffusion coefficient. These transient structures are due to the interplay between steps and nonequilibrium conditions and emerge at coverages, which do not correspond to the ideal ordered phases.

The Buffalo Sabres haven't had much to celebrate. When they finally earned the chance, they forgot how.
At the close of a chaotic 5-4 shootout win over Montreal on Thursday, the Sabres' victory party was in disarray. A few players jubilantly hopped into the dressing room. Others exchanged high-fives in the hallway. A handful remained on the ice soaking in the applause of the faithful.
Captain Jason Pominville finally managed to get them on the same page. In various stages of dress, from full uniform to lower pads only, the Sabres skated back to center ice and raised their sticks to the fans.
It was a welcome moment for both sides.
The Sabres avoided their fourth straight loss with a last-second goal by Thomas Vanek, then earned their second victory in nine games when Vanek and Pominville scored in the shootout. The Sabres also snapped a three-game winless skid in First Niagara Center. It was cause for celebration, no matter how awkward.
"I just think we forgot about it because we hadn't won at home for a while," said goaltender Ryan Miller, who stopped two of three Montreal attempts in the shootout. "It was a little bit clunky, like the game, but eventually we all got out there."
There was little reason to believe they would win. The boos were raining down on the Sabres harder than they had all season. The team was seconds away from seeing another loss added to their 1-6-1 slide.
The fans who stuck around in the crowd of 18,866 quickly changed their tune.
With Miller pulled for an extra attacker, the Sabres got the puck near the Montreal net after several failed attempts. Once it got close, Vanek did the rest.
The NHL's most potent player, while on his knees at the side of the body-filled crease, pushed and poked at goalie Peter Budaj and the puck. Both finally slid over the goal line with 1.9 seconds left as the fans erupted and Vanek's teammates mobbed him.
"We found a way to get it in," Vanek said. "It was a feeling that we finally got a point that we needed. That was a good feeling."
Because of the hole they created with their slide, they don't get to celebrate long. Having already nullified a stirring win over Boston with a debacle in Montreal this season, the Sabres are eager to try for two wins in a row Saturday when they visit the New York Islanders.
"It really is about winning the next game already, about putting this one behind us and focusing on getting better and getting on a run because we've got some ground to make up," coach Lindy Ruff said.
The third-period rally from a two-goal deficit eased Buffalo's continuing troubles with team defense. The Sabres allowed at least four goals for the sixth straight game. It's the first time that has happened under Ruff, who began coaching the team in 1997.
"I don't think I've ever been through a stretch where we've made as many poor decisions or mistakes, whatever you want to call them, that have led to some great opportunities by the other team," Ruff said.
Buffalo allowed the Canadiens to build leads of 1-0, 2-1, 3-2 and 4-2. The Sabres answered every time.
Steve Ott needed just 15 seconds to erase Montreal's opening goal. Tyler Ennis scored 35 seconds after the Habs made it 2-1.
Buffalo's ultimate comeback started when it finally connected on the power play. After opening the game 0 for 5, including a two-man advantage, Vanek scored on the power play with 12:03 left to make it 4-3. The goal ended a 0-for-17 drought and gave them four goals in 35 chances since the opener.
"We had a lot of chances, myself included, in the second," Vanek said. "I could have had two or three, and I just thought to myself, 'You know, maybe it's one of those nights, but just keep going.'
"At the end I got rewarded and as a team we got two points that we really needed."
They needed the postgame party, too.
"It was definitely an awkward celebration for the fans," left wing Marcus Foligno said, "but it was good to have everyone out there and salute them for the tough stretch that we went through."

New Year's Eve is always a busy day at Roberts Beverages, employee Fran McConnell of Altoona said Sunday.
That's why fellow employee Kris Civils spent Sunday afternoon moving cases of beer inside the business at 1800 Pleasant Valley Blvd.
"I'm just making sure everything is going to be cold," Civils said.

"That's what he's doing today," McConnell said, "so tomorrow goes easier."
For many businesses, New Year's Eve is a day to have supplies stocked and ready for patrons making plans to end one year and start another. For some, those plans will translate into a night of dining, drinking, dancing and a champagne toast at midnight. For others, it's a night at home with pizza, beer and a good movie. Or maybe chicken wings.
At TK's Subs and Six-Pack Shop, 203 E. Sixth Ave., employee Mary Stevens predicted that chicken wings are likely be the big attraction on New Year's Eve.
"We usually sell tons of wings on Monday nights because we run a special," Stevens said. "So because New Year Eve falls on a Monday, we doubled our beer order and our wings order."
While food and drink are generally the main attractions of any New Year's Eve celebration, they're not the only attractions.
In addition to serving hotdogs and sauerkraut at its New Year's Eve party, Splinters Champion Lanes, 1879 E. Pleasant Valley Blvd., is offering three hours of late night bowling, from 10:30 p.m. until 1:30 a.m.
For hockey fans, the Johnstown Tomahawks is offering some help to ring in the new year. The club is prepared to give away 2,000 cowbells to patrons arriving for the team's 6 p.m. game.
In State College, for the 17th year, the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts will host a First Night menu of activities that include vaudeville acts, storytellers and belly dance performances amid 80 ice sculptures that were under construction on Sunday.
Closer to home, the Hollidaysburg Area YMCA was preparing Sunday for its New Year's Eve Twilight Race, starting with a run at 4 p.m. and a walk at 5 p.m., both through the Lights on the Lake display at Lakemont Park.
"I have had a pile of new registrants today," YMCA desk clerk Polly McCabe said Sunday. "We have a lot of families that like to walk through the lights."
As of Sunday afternoon, more than 600 people were signed up to participate, but McCabe said she expects that number will continue climbing.
"Some people wait until the last minute to sign up," she said. "They want to see how cold it's going to be."
Altoona Mirror Staff Writer Kay Stephens is at 946-7456.

An enthralling scientific and cultural exploration of the Ice Age—from the author of How the Canyon Became Grand
From a remarkable father-daughter team comes a dramatic synthesis of science and environmental history—an exploration of the geologic time scale and evolution twinned with the story of how, eventually, we have come to understand our own past.
The Pleistocene is the epoch of geologic time closest to our own. The Last Lost World is an inquiry into the conditions that made it, the themes that define it, and the creature that emerged dominant from it. At the same time, it tells the story of how we came to discover and understand this crucial period in the Earth's history and what meanings it has for today.

It's a haven, a place of rest, peace, learning and laughter. A place where children whose lives cast the shadow of HIV can play without accusation, laugh without being condemned, and have the freedom to just be a child. A place their parents and caregivers can depend on, lean on and trust. It's a place where hope lives.
Hope House began out of a desperately growing need. As AIDS began its deadly progression, so commenced research by a committed group of volunteers from the Junior League of Memphis. They discovered that women affected by HIV had special needs. Hope House was the answer.
In 1995, Hope House opened. They offered childcare services to only five children, three days a week. Now almost 50 children and 150 adults receive hope from this house, along with auxiliary services, all focused on making the quality of life better.
Many cannot imagine the struggles children at Hope House overcome each day. All of them have a parent or caregiver who is HIV positive, several have endured the challenging loss of a loved one and approximately one-third of these beautiful little ones, ages 6 weeks to 5 years, are known to be HIV positive. But despite all this, infants and children at Hope House flourish. Hope House provides each child with care based on their nutritional, physical, and intellectual needs. They work closely with the children's medical providers and provide transportation to medical appointments. A Licensed Pediatric Nurse is also on hand in case of emergency and to make sure all medication schedules are met. But above all, Hope House provides a stable environment in which children can address the impact of HIV in their lives.
Hope House believes every child has the right to quality child care. Because of the dedication to this belief, each child currently or previously in the care of Hope House can now look forward to a better future.
No matter what age, people need a place they can turn to for support and care. And that's what parents consistently find at Hope House. From helping these adults cope with the horrible reality of HIV/AIDS to providing them with transportation, education, housing, and counseling, Hope House plays a vital role in their lives. Hope House provides parent support groups, parent training, medical support, job and GED readiness. Hope House is very aware of the importance of confidentiality to people living under certain circumstances, and works hard to honor that conviction.
Hope House is a friend to all ages and strives to help parents in any way possible. Whether it is a ride to a doctor's appointment, help with GED assignments, or just a listening ear, Hope House is there.
You wish babies could tell you what they need.

The Fort Dorchester offense shined in the first half Friday and the Patriot defense shined in the second as the Fort earned a 35-14 win over Cane Bay.
The Patriots (2-0) scored three first-half touchdowns and held the Cobras (0-2) to 54 yards of offense in the second half. Fort Dorchester's offense outgained Cane Bay's offense 349 yards to 167 in the game, but the Cobras won the special teams and turnover battles.
"Cane Bay played well and we still got the win so I'm happy with that," Fort Dorchester coach Steve LaPrad said. "Our kids played hard. We moved the ball well and our defense played like we expect it to in the second half, but we need to clean some things up. Hopefully with a good week of practice we can straighten the other things out."
Junior quarterback Kobe Garrett completed 12 of 16 pass attempts for approximately 200 yards and four touchdowns.
Receivers Joseph Hutchinson, Rashad Palmer, D'Monte Bailey and Diondre Champaigne all had touchdown receptions for the Fort. Palmer's came on a 69-yard play that involved a lot of yards after the catch. Bailey outleaped a Cobra defensive back in the end zone to secure his 34-yard touchdown reception, which put the Fort up 28-14 with Riley Rozanski's PAT kick late in the third quarter.
Garrett and running backs Matt Murray and Nahshon Cyrus combined for approximately 200 rushing yards. Murray broke several tackles to score the Patriots' sole rushing TD, which covered 40 yards.
Running back Romonte Frazier provided two of the Cobras' main highlights of the evening. The senior capped a 69-yard drive with a 10-yard scoring run to tie the game at 7 early in the second quarter. After Murray's TD run, Frazier returned the kickoff 81 yards into the end zone to give the Cobras a 14-13 lead with Phillip Jackson's PAT kick.
However, the Fort gained momentum for good on its next possession, taking only one play to score on Palmer's 69-yard play.
Cane Bay 0 14 0 0 – 14
Fort Dorchester 7 14 7 7 – 35
F – Joseph Hutchinson 5 pass from Kobe Garrett (Riley Rozanski kick)
C – Romonte Frazier 10 run (Phillip Jackson kick)
F – Matt Murray 40 run (kick blocked)
C – Frazier 81 kickoff return (Jackson kick)
F – Rashad Palmer 69 pass from Garrett (Garrett run)
F – D'Monte Bailey 34 pass from Garrett (Rozanski kick)
F – Diondre Champaigne 6 pass from Garrett

I was at the downtown 4th of July celebration watching the band Storm play in Tomahawk and couldn't believe that your town will not put garbage cans on the street for people to throw their garbage in. I can't believe a city would rather have people just throw cans and bottles all over the street. There were several broken beer bottles all over the place which is a accident just waiting to happen. I believe if the garbage cans were put out, that people would use them. I have never been to an event in a city that won't provide some type of garbage cans for the people. The street was just disgusting.
I have also been coming to Tomahawk for the past three years to the Fall Ride event and have a great time, but it is the same situation downtown then also. Garbage everywhere. I would think your city would be more proud of itself and want the vistors to think "what a nice clean place to visit".
I hope someday someone in your city will want to do something about this, because it sure doesn't make it a very attractive place to visit.

When "Sunday Night Football" kicks off tonight with the Bears visiting the Steelers at Heinz Field, it will mark the 25th prime-time game play-by-play man Al Michaels has worked in Pittsburgh.
According to NBC Sports, the Steelers are the seventh team to host at least 25 games called by Michaels.
In addition to the games in Pittsburgh, Michaels called the Steelers' two most recent Super Bowl victories.
"There has been no better NFL game for me than Pittsburgh-Arizona in Super Bowl XLIII," Michaels said. "That was the No. 1 game in terms of drama and excitement. There is always an argument about which Super Bowl is the best.
"But how many Super Bowls have not one, but two plays for the ages - James Harrison's interception-return touchdown just before halftime and Santonio Holmes' touchdown catch in the waning seconds in the corner of the end zone? Those two plays are as iconic as any I have ever seen."
Tuner tidbits
n Former Steelers all-pro running back Jerome Bettis landed at ESPN this year after an opportunity with NBC Sports and "Football Night in America" did not work, or at least did not work well enough for him to keep that job.
Likewise, former Steelers all-pro receiver Hines Ward keeps trying to earn his position with NBC Sports. He contributes to "Football Night in America" (after an OK debut season in 2012) and handles studio duties for college football.
n After numerous complaints from fans during the first two weeks of the NFL season, CBS Sports said it would address the colors it uses for its bottom-the-the-TV-screen score update and ticker. It had been using yellow to indicate final scores, but viewers complained about similarities to the color typically used to indicate penalties. If and when the change happens, it will impact the on-screen look for CBS Sports Network as well.
n Fox Sports 1 has mimicked ESPN and tried to cut back live to shows during its commercial breaks, to give viewers some sort of behind-the-scenes access or sense of immediacy. During "Fox Football Daily" last week, the cutback caught former Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw uttering a profanity - giving viewers perhaps a bit more than they expected.
n In an effort to give "Fox Sports Live" co-hosts Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole more exposure and as a bit of cross promotion, the duo will host post-game highlights on "Fox NFL Sunday" this evening.

Enigmo is a old title with a history on Windows Mobile. It was packaged with the Dell Axim X50v as one of the first true 3D accelerated mobile PPC games. I still have it installed on mine and play it once in a while. The WP7 version is updated with a few graphical changes and runs smoother on 6 year newer hardware, but remains essentially the same. Great Game.

It was a dynamite decade for Jerseys
It was a dynamite decade for Jerseys
It is not going overboard to say that so far during the 21st century, Jerseys have been one of the dairy industry's hottest trends. Not only does the soaring popularity of small brown cows not show any signs of slowing, but it only figures to increase as producers continue looking for ways to boost feed efficiency and profitability.
One obvious yardstick of this enthusiasm is the number of new animals registered with the American Jersey Cattle Association each year, which set an all-time record in 2009. New records don't happen very often at organizations that are 142 years old, but this was the second one in a row for AJCA.
Cherie Bayer, the breed group's Director of Development, said total registrations in 2009 were 95,557, breaking the previous record of 94,774 in 2008. She noted that registration numbers dipped as low as 33,104 in 1973 and did not regularly exceed 60,000 per year until the late 1990s.
What happened to suddenly make headstrong small brown cows the belles of today's commercial dairy ball? There's little doubt that the answer is Multiple Component Pricing of milk, which went into effect in Federal Milk Marketing Orders on January 1, 2000. Switching volume-based milk pricing to a system that rewards protein and butterfat clearly caused interest in Jerseys to soar, and has boosted their retail value onto a par with Holsteins as well.
In addition to greater demand for Jersey cows, Jersey A.I. semen sales have also surged as many dairies have started crossbreeding programs to boost protein and fat production in their herds. Bayer points out that between 1997 and 2008, Jersey A.I. semen sales increased 183 percent.

According to Kathmandu Valley legend, Indra, the Vedic King of Heaven, wanted to buy flowers for his mother. Unable to find any in heaven, he descended to the valley and stole some, but was caught and imprisoned. When Indra's mother came looking for him, the people realized their mistake and to appease him, started an annual festival in his honour.
Usually held in late August or early September, Indra Jaatra is an occasion to give thanks to the god for bringing the monsoon rains that make the vital summer rice crop possible. Yet Indra's humiliation is a parallel theme, as straw effigies of the god are placed in jails. Another local legend claims an invading king, calling himself Indra, was defeated by the valley's indigenous people, and some anthropologists believe such an event may have provided the historical impetus for the festival.
Indra Jaatra features eight days of almost nonstop spectacle. It begins with the ceremonial raising of a 15m-tall pole in front of the Kala Bhairab statue by members of the Manandhar (oil-presser) caste. In Indrachowk, the famous blue mask of Akash Bhairab, a god sometimes identified with Indra, is displayed, as are lesser Bhairab images in other neighbourhoods. Locals do puja (an act of worship) to them by day, and light lamps by night in memory of deceased relatives. Masked dancers perform around the old city, and one group stages a tableau of the das avatar (the ten incarnations of Vishnu) at the base of the Trailokya Mohan.
Indra Jaatra is the fusion of two festivals, and the second, Kumari Jaatra, begins on the afternoon of the third day. From noon, Durbar Square steadily fills up with spectators and, in the balcony of the Gaddi Baithak, with politicians and foreign dignitaries dressed in formal attire. (Tourists are herded into an area around the Shiva Parbati Mandir, where it's hard to get a decent view unless you're right behind the police cordon; however, women can sit on the elevated steps of the Maju Dewal.) Masked dancers entertain the crowd: the one in the red mask and shaggy hair is the popular Lakhe, a demon said to keep other spirits at bay if properly appeased. The procession formerly began when the king and queen arrived, but now senior politicians have taken over their roles. The Kumari and two attendants, representing Ganesh and Bhairab, are pulled in wooden chariots around the square past the Gaddi Baithak. They then make a circuit of the southern old city, as far as Jaisi Dewal and Lagan, before returning to the square after dark.
When they depart, the formal ceremony gives way to all-out partying. Dance troupes from around the valley perform near the entrance to the old royal palace, and a pantomime elephant – Indra's mount – careers through the streets. Young men gravitate toward Sweta Bhairab where, after lengthy ritual preliminaries, rice beer flows from a pipe sticking out of the idol's mouth.
Without the VIPs and ceremonial pomp, the chariots are again pulled the next afternoon, past Nardevi and Asan. On the final day, after a few days of relative calm, the chariots are pulled for a third time to Kilagal. According to legend, this last procession was added by King Jaya Prakash Malla to allow his concubine, who lived in Kilagal, to see the Kumari. In the days of the monarchy, when the chariots returned to Durbar Square later that evening, the king would come before the Kumari to receive the royal tika that assured his right to rule for another year. Finally, the ceremonial pole is pulled down, and people take pieces of it as amulets against ghosts and spirits.

Primary tabs
Chromosomes are structures found in the center (nucleus) of cells that carry long pieces of DNA. DNA is the material that holds genes. It is the building block of the human body.
Chromosomes also contain proteins that help DNA exist in the proper form.
Chromosomes come in pairs. Normally, each cell in the human body has 23 pairs of chromosomes (46 total chromosomes). Half come from the mother; the other half come from the father.
Two of the chromosomes (the X and the Y chromosome) determine if you are born a boy or a girl (your gender). They are called sex chromosomes:
- Females have 2 X chromosomes.
- Males have 1 X and 1 Y chromosome.
The mother gives an X chromosome to the child. The father may contribute an X or a Y. It is the chromosome from the father that determines if the baby is a girl or a boy.
The remaining chromosomes are called autosomal chromosomes. They are known as chromosome pairs 1 through 22.

Fan of my Dodge Caravan used to buy only GM
by Grand Caravan Fan from Detroit Area, Mi. | July 15, 2013
Got the 1997 GRAND CARAVAN used from family member.I always had GM previously.My. only previously favorite carmaker had constant repairs after so many years of use. I just got used to it. I bought 1 of them brand new within 6 months I had huge rust spots around windows.Dealership kept repairing. Every 2 years like clockwork had to have new muffler system.Fuel pumps starters.I really do feel very badly about negativity of another car maker but its so true.Like I said I just thought that was what it meant to own a car. My Grand Caravan didn't give me ANY problems. Certainly bought new tires and oil changes, definatly a different world than owning ( my previously beloved GM's ) My caravan is for sale now its 16 yrs old.If I wasn't replacing it with another Grand Caravan I would of hated to sell it.

The best car I have ever purchased
by PRECIOUS from Surrey, B.C. | December 1, 2010
This car is really awesome I bought it 208 KM, but it runs like its new. My first car was Nizzan97 which was really good car, and then a Saturn 93 one I came to regret buying and now the 97 Dodge the champ of all. My Dodge is irreplacable. Nothing can compare its beautiful, awesome, fun to drive, makes you feel like you are on top of the world and its very quality. If I have to choose between My Nizzan Maxima 97 and My Dodge van 97 I will defenetly choose my Dodge over the Nizzan its a perfect car and I am really happy with it. Dodge rocks. I am proud to own Dodge. No Joke. The price is unbeatable too.

been a great van 191k miles and counting
by knoxvol from tennessee | August 27, 2007
This van has been very reliable for my wife and three children. we have put 120k of the 191k mile on this van with many trips to the coast. no tranny problems like we were warned about. the only issues we have had were simple and expected maintanence. the worst thing about working on it is the "3 MIA Spark plugs". They are buried behind the firewall and motor. luckily they are only changed every 100k miles. has been a good van.

Just when you think the talking heads on Fox News Channel have exhausted their supply of ridiculous comments, something like THIS comes along:
Fox News commentator Brit Hume on Sunday said that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) happens to be just too manly for the feminine world we live in today.
"In this sort of feminized atmosphere in which we exist today, guys who are masculine and muscular like that in their private conduct, kind of old-fashioned tough guys, run some risks," Hume said on Fox News' "Media Buzz."
Hume explained his take when questioned by co-host Lauren Ashburn....

quote: I can already tell you what the Android fans are thinking:
quote: Direct HDMI is also absolutely moot. You need to buy a cable if you want to go wired anyways, and Apple's cable not only delivers HDMI but keeps the tablet powered.
quote: Tablets are all about apps. You don't stare at your home screen for five minutes, you use apps.
quote: And, as for the quad-core processor... well, Anandtech's own benchmarks (mostly 3D) showed an iPad 2 already outrunning a Transformer Prime. Go quad-core on graphics and double the RAM and Apple's sitting in the stratosphere somewhere. Specs can matter, but don't believe the "bigger numbers are always better" myth -- it's what you're doing with the cores you've got that means the most.
quote: I was at Mobile World Congress. I used the new Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and Galaxy Tab 2. Used Toshiba's new 7-inch tablet, Acer's quad-core Iconia Tab A700 and A510. Co-worker tried the new ASUS tablets. None of them scream out that you must buy them over an iPad; they're either extremely conservative tablets that are dead in the water (Samsung) or no better than a Transformer Prime, which is nice but not that exciting. They don't have the apps, they don't have the responsiveness, and they certainly don't have that display.
quote: So does MHL on my HTC sensation.
quote: No, I stare at my home screen for a few moments to see if I need to go into my apps vs. going into each app to check stuff.
quote: After 60FPS you won't notice the difference. I'm not playing 3d games on tablets either, that's a waste of time. As long as it can do 1080p video, I don't care.
quote: It's obvious you are an apple fanboi. We're not. It's a good product, but ever since apple arbitrarily killed google voice for no reason whatsoever, plus their endless lawsuits, I chose never to support apple. EVER.
quote: The fact that other devices do this is irrelevant. His point was that you can connect the iPad to a TV using HDMI, to disprove the argument sometimes made against iPad that you can't.
quote: It wasn't just Google voice they killed, it was numerous voice applications - and it was arguably largely influenced by AT&T. Either way, disliking Apple for that, while you're entitled to do it, is why it's obvious you're an Android fanboy and an Apple hater. That blinds your judgement.
quote: No, it was to address the fact I get charged while I use MHL on my phone just like the ipad
quote: Sorry if I stopped liking a company for irrationally banning apps on the whim of SJ's crusade against google or for suing over rounded rectangles. I already said the ipad is a good product, but I guess that still makes me a fanboi and hater.
quote: Right. That's why they approved it in the first place, ATT is on record as NOT banning it, didn't ban it on any other phone, makes no sense to ban it since it uses normal phone minutes anyhow, and the biggest reason of all, is apple's reason: "We haven't banned Google voice, we are studying it."

on February 15, 2013 - 1:34 AM
Renowned guitarist Brian Gore birthed the idea for the International Guitar Night touring ensemble, a traveling roadshow that finds acoustic guitarists from different cultures joining together in honor of the muse. According to the IGN website, the idea is to present a "cast of guitar luminaries to join [Gore] for special evenings of solos, duets and quartets that highlight the virtuosity and diversity within the world of acoustic guitar."
The collective – San Franciscan Gore, English jazz guitarist Martin Taylor, French world music virtuoso Solorazaf and Brazilian classical guitarist Celso Machado – has been touring the country since early January, performing mostly in concert halls, museums and art galleries. At 6 p.m. Sunday, the International Guitar Night touring party will perform a special show in the Cullen Arts Center at St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute (845 Kenmore Ave.)
Why the special engagement? Well, St. Joe's faculty member Marcus Devoso has been studying with jazz giant Taylor via the Internet for some time now, and it seems his pitch to Taylor sealed the deal. To have talent of this magnitude in such a setting is a coup for St. Joe's, and also for lovers of virtuosic guitar music in the area. Additional information is available through www.internationalguitarnight.com and www.sjci.com. I also recommend a visit to www.martintaylor.com.
Space is the place...
A pair of upstate jam band/EDM outfits – both with names that imply floating around the cosmos untethered like Major Tom, a la David Bowie's "Space Oddity" – will converge at 9:30 p.m. Thursday in Nietzsche's (248 Allen St.).
Solaris, formed in 2010 and already building a considerable reputation in the area, describes its compositions as musical blueprints that "vary in speed, length, genre and style, but all... are used as blank slates to showcase the trio's explosive improv, electronic experimentation, and constantly evolving new sounds." Which is both super cool, and pretty spacey. Space Junk – formed at Fredonia State College, as was I, so I've got a soft spot for them – insist that it likes to leave its listeners "wondering whether they are in a smoky laser filled dancehall or in a classic barn party." All of this is good fun, and aptly descriptive of both bands' sounds, but the ultimate enticement is the Facebook invite poster promoters concocted for this gig – if features what appears to be a homeless, Gandalf-like wizard in flowing beard, holding a staff in one hand and a placard reading "Will work for Jamtronica" in the other. Brilliant!
Admission for the Solaris/Space Junk throwdown will be $5 at the door.
Gig picks
Right smack in the middle of its winter tour, and following a reportedly successful, sold-out show in New York City, Aqueous returns to Nietzsche's (248 Allen St.) for a 10 p.m. gig today. Baltimore's Pigeons Playing Ping Pong and Akron, Ohio's Aliver Hall, will share the bill. Admission is $7 at the door.
Satisfaction! The International Tribute to the Rolling Stones, will attempt to give you some satisfaction at 8 p.m. Saturday in the Forvm, Maple Entertainment Complex (4224 Maple Road). The band is said to be the only full-time touring Rolling Stones tribute ensemble in the world, and a quick visit to Rollingstoneshow.com suggests why this is the case. These guys are pretty amazing. Be advised – event planners are expecting the show to sell out. Tickets are $10 advance (Ticketweb.com). If any tickets remain on Saturday, the price jumps to $15.
The Tralf Music Hall (622 Main St.), hosts Cajun guitarist and songwriter Tab Benoit at 8 p.m. Tuesday, as part of the Big Easy in Buffalo series. Tickets are $20 advance (box office, Ticketmaster.com).
Finally, the Town Ballroom (681 Main St.), has two big shows on the schedule this weekend, with Sublime tribute Badfish headlining at the venue at 8 tonight, and metal legends Testament, with guests Overkill, Flotsam and Jetsam and 4Arm, bringing the "Dark Roots of Thrash Tour" at 6 p.m. Sunday. Tickets for Badfish are $19; Testament and friends are asking $26 in advance, and $29 on the day of the show. Tickets for both shows are at the box office or through Tickets.com.

Jean Robinson Avery, 85, passed away on July 11, 2013 in Charlotte, NC. She is remembered as a smart, charming, and elegant southern Lady and her bright smile and deep love and care for others will be profoundly missed.
She was born in Chapin, SC and, after her family and faith, always treasured her warm memories of friends in Chapin, Columbia, and Summerville more than anything. She also never lost her love of the legal field, in which she was sole breadwinner for her family for many years, and in her heart she remained a legal secretary and executive assistant, even in her final days.
Jean was the widow of Jim Avery of Summerville. She is survived by her daughters, Barbara Taylor of Charlotte, Joan Rittenbach, Janis Flodin, and Jennie Watson of Summerville; her sister Anne Kunath of San Antonio; and her brother, Richard Robinson of Carson City, NV. She is also survived by four grandchildren, James Taylor, Marvin Benford, III, Zachary Benford, and Abigail Benford. There are also four stepchildren, Lois Raabe, Neil Avery, Marlee Calcote, and Robin Doerner.
Services will be held in loving memory at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 20, 2013 at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, presided over by Dow B. Erwin, at 1308 S. Main Street, Summerville, SC. Flowers will be accepted and may be sent to J. Flodin, 100-A Stagecoach Lane, Summerville, SC 29483.
