And its another huge win for the bears!!! The California Golden Bears stumbled into Tucson Sunday night and stole a victory from the #7 Arizona Wildcats!! And what a game it was!!!
California seemed up to the task early on with some easy buckets. David Kravish ran the floor well. Where the Bears were getting exploited was on the defensive side of the ball. Loose balls in the first half again came back to bite the bears along with careless turnovers that translated into easy buckets for the Wildcats. Early on the game was a lot of missed jumpers in a pretty much up and down game. Again careless turnovers were hurting the bears as some guys were throwing the ball to ghosts.
The turning point in the first half was definitely when Cal turned to the zone bottle the Wildcats offensively. Although it had it bright spots, the Cats kept running a high ball screen which freed up shooters almost at will. The bigs failed hedge on this top ball screen and Arizona would take advantage of it. Solomon Hill would hit a 3 from there and Mark Lyons got into the paint almost at will. The bear's saving grace all the way up until half time was stops that led to easy buckets in transition. Especially the bucket at the end of the half with Allen Crabbe finishing at the buzzer, a sure fire boost for the team going into half time.
The second half was one to remember for the California. Guys played with heart and soul that has been desired from the coaching staff. And was it a pleasure to watch. For the first time this year leadership was seen from key guys and propelled the team to victory. All that said from everyone's mouth was "win, win, win!!" The bears played like that and more. The bears would revisit the zone and it appeared way more active than the first half. Allen Crabbe didn't let a soul get by him at the top of the key and this severely dampened Arizona's offensive effort. Now all the bears needed to do was score and that is easier said then done. And in steps Allen Lester Crabbe, the man of the game. From the and one 3, to cuts to the basket, to his ridiculously hard angle, falling to the floor floater, Crabby was everywhere. The kid only missed 3 shots, ALL GAME!!
Not selling anyone else short, Justin Cobbs stepped into his role perfectly. Driving into the lane with effectiveness, he found guys for layups and got some of his own. What he did the best in my opinion was run the break. Pushing at every opportunity, he got many easy layups. And who can forget his clutch jumpers and a huge 3!!!
These 2 efforts are highlighted but now onto my player ratings.
1 Justin Cobbs PG Cal
An all around efficient performance from Cal's leading man. Weathered a turnover storm early on to bounce back in a huge way. Exploited his offensive matchup to perfection and also displayed defensive prowess today. Remained very composed throughout and his distribution was near flawless. Above all, his leadership was amazing. Long overdue but man did this kid play his heart out for the club.
3 Tyrone Wallace SG Cal
A guy who battled in the trenches all game. His efforts won't show up on the stat sheet outside of his 7 assists but he put in a very solid shift. Ran down every ball he saw, Tyrone was a monster on the defensive side. Hardly stepping a foot wrong all game defensively, his teammates were thankful for his effort. A very satisfactory performance for Tyrone as he continues to grow every game.
23 Allen Crabbe SF Cal
In my opinion, his best game as a Cal Bear. He played every facet of the game to perfection. He distributed, rebounded, defended, lead, and put the ball in the bucket. What else can I say? The kid was amazing tonight and hit HUGE shots for his team. This game will push into the upper echelon of greats at Cal in my opinion but maybe I'm a little bias.
45 David Kravish PF Cal
Started slow but eventually grew into the game. Was efficient offensively and kept set plays ticking with his smarts. David was another guy who battled in the trenches but he does that almost every game. Fought to the death on the glass, Davy was very composed in his approach and I have never seen him more focused in a pregame setting. This game took David from a boy to a man and quick!
35 Richard Solomon C Cal
A gritty performance from him. Again and again his length caused problems. His jumper was falling for him tonight and it boosted his confidence dramatically. Caught ball watching on occasion but he always ran to the glass to help out. A constant thorn in Arizona's side whether he had the ball or not. A vocal presence in the huddle which helped everyone.
12 Brandon Smith PG Cal
A heart filled performance for the battle tested senior. Got on the floor for countless loose balls and kept many possessions alive. Withstood Lyons and Mays ball pressure all night and remained composed as usual. Was seen wiping the glass a few times on the defensive end which is huge.
34 Robert Thurman C Cal
Persevered throughout the whole game whether it be on the glass or from his own coaching staff. Rob would respond with maturity and grab key rebounds late on. Fumbled his one drop off but you can't fault him for his effort and passion while on the floor. A performance to hang his hat on.
15 Bak Bak PF Cal
This guy just came out of left field today. A man possessed while on the floor. His energy was paramount to Cal's success. His late free throws kept the cats at bay for a little longer and his defensive presence was surprisingly large. Put dreadlocks on Bak and he is the Angelo Chol of California.

Krebs and Johansen raise some questions concerning the conclusions of our article "Cognition in Novice Ecstasy Users With Minimal Exposure to Other Drugs."1 We interpret the absence of a retest effect on a verbal memory task in Ecstasy users as a decrease in verbal memory. This is based on the fact that the Ecstasy-naive subjects showed an increase in performance between the initial and follow-up examinations, while the Ecstasy users did not. The memory performance in our control group increased, with 4 words on total immediate recall and more than half a word on delayed recall at the second measurement occasion. However, Krebs and Johansen state that retest effects disappear within 1 month, a statement based on a review of Hawkins et al.2 In this review, 1 study is mentioned, in which no significant practice effects were seen in 30 normal subjects who were retested with a parallel version after 1 month.3 Another reviewed study in 19 undergraduates did find retest effects with a parallel form after 2 to 13 days.4 We find these 2 small studies meager evidence to conclude that retest effects cannot exist after 1 month. There are other studies that do show retest effects after more than 1 month.5- 8 For example, 1 study in 38 healthy subjects reported an increase of 2.8 words on immediate recall and 0.8 word on delayed recall after an interval of 4 months.7 Perhaps the most compelling evidence that retest effects are the norm comes from a population-based study in 776 subjects that shows an increase of 4 words on immediate recall and 1 word on delayed recall after an interval of 3 years.8 (Moreover, most of the tests we used showed retest effects at follow-up [Table 2 of our article1]). The absence of improved performance in the Ecstasy-using group does not imply that Ecstasy users lack a practice effect. They probably also gained "test wiseness" and knew what they could expect. However, our hypothetic conclusion is that this practice effect could not fully compensate for the decreased memory functioning due to the Ecstasy use.

Saturday, February 25, 2012
We are pleased to announce the Third Annual Graduate Conference, hosted by the Graduate History Society, at the University of Rochester. The theme for this year's conference is "Image, Truth, and Distortion." We invite proposals from graduate students of all disciplines which examine the complex and highly contested relationship between the image, in all of its various manifestations, and the concept of truth. The term "image" is broadly construed: images from any time period and of every variety from political cartoons to frescoes to digital photography, as well as literary, biographical, metaphorical or mental images, are acceptable subjects of investigation. Ideal submissions should explore the ways in which images have been used throughout history to reflect, refract, or even reinvent truth in regards to people, events, ideas, movements, cultures, or time periods, as well as how these images have been embraced or contested. More broadly, submissions should ultimately address the limits of our ability to comprehend and communicate truth as well as the ways in which interpretations of "truth" can be claimed, distorted or imposed on others.
Our keynote speaker for this year's conference is Professor Susie Linfield. Linfield is Associate Professor of Journalism at New York University, and has been director of the Cultural Reporting and Criticism program since its inception in 1995. A frequent contributor to a variety of publications, including The Washington Post Book World, The Boston Review, Dissent, and The Nation among others, Linfield is most recently the author of The Cruel Radiance: Photography and Political Violence (University of Chicago Press, 2010). In this widely-acclaimed work, which is a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, Linfield examines how photographs of traumatic events such as the Holocaust and China's Cultural Revolution have helped provide impetus to the modern human rights movement, and argues that confronting these images of human cruelty is not voyeuristic but a necessary ethical act.
The conference will consist of 3-4 paper sessions on Saturday, February 25, 2012 as well as a keynote address. We invite graduate students to submit abstracts of approximately 250 words, contact information, and a brief biography. All proposals must be submitted by November 30. Please submit all information via our website at http://www.rochester.edu/College/HIS/Conference
Please send all questions concerning the conference to: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Euro 2012 took a temporary break from the headlines this morning, as the Premier League officially unveiled next season's fixture list.
Over the past few years, Everton have been reluctant to begin a new campaign in any kind of hurry, generally lurking in the lower half of the table before eventually deciding to sprint to the finish line around the turn of the year.
Could this be the season David Moyes coaxes his squad to perform for a full set of fixtures?
Here is your month-by-month guide to the Toffees' 2012/13 season, complete with a difficulty gauge for each month.

MARTINSBURG - On senior night Thursday at the Martinsburg Fieldhouse, the Bulldogs could not have picked a better night to have everything come together.
Every Bulldogs player who stepped foot onto the floor scored in a 75-36 victory over Jefferson.
"It really was a nice night for these seniors on the team," Martinsburg coach Wes Hall said. "This was a very great team win overall."

"It was all the excitement from senior night," Kiana Bullett said. "That alone had us work harder and come together to get the win."
The Bulldogs and Cougars opened play by exchanging the lead. Martinsburg settled in and took a 13-11 lead at the end of the opening quarter.
The Bulldogs stretched the lead to 10 in the second quarter.

Martinsburg's Kiana Bullett shoots over Jefferson's Marissa Jones and Kenzie Chrisman.
Jefferson's Marissa Jones finishes a fastbreak layup in front of Martinsburg's Alexandra Fossett.
Still, Hall made defensive adjustments in the second half.
"I was not happy with the defense in the first half," Hall said. "We talked about doing better with our help defense and then adding pressure. Once we did that, we were able to turn it around."
"There were a lot of hard practices," Bullett said. "We're in preparation mode for the postseason, so we are having to work on that to get us as far as we can make it."
The Bulldogs allowed only 12 points in the second half. Eight of them came from the shooting touch of Jefferson's Marissa Jones, who led the Cougars with a team-high 14 points.
"She has improved tremendously," Jefferson coach Chris Custer said. "She has been our anchor, can play all five positions, shoots, rebounds and plays hard."
Experience proved to be Martinsburg's biggest advantage as the Bulldogs scored 41 points in the second half to stretch the lead from 10 to 39 before the final buzzer.
"When the math is done, they are a veteran ballclub that has been together for a couple years with their main players," Custer said. "Anytime you get a mixture of talent and veterans, it is a deadly combination when we are playing against them with a young team.
"We're trying to get to where they are, and I am encouraged by how our girls are playing from start to finish. We're looking to play about 40-50 games during the offseason to work hard and get to that point. We just need court time together."
Bullett led all scorers with a double-double of 17 points and 16 rebounds. Essence Underwood added 16 points and five boards, and Kieera Basey finished with a double-double of 10 points and 10 assists for the Bulldogs (12-5).
Dasia Taylor added seven points for Jefferson (2-16).

One of the organizers of an upcoming workshop on Lanai on "smart strategies for working with Filipinos" says she finds comedian Frank De Lima's references to "buk, buk" offensive.
Cornelia Soberano, a social worker and former lawyer in Toronto, says the term means "termites." The use of this racial expression, which also seems to mimic speech of native speakers, reinforces stereotypes and has "the larger mainstream . . . laughing about it" in a condescending manner.
"We all hurt as people," said Soberano on Monday in a conversation about the upcoming workshop on "Improving Cultural Competency: Smart Strategies for Working With Filipinos."
"Cultural competency means you are knowledgeable about people's historical background: what their cultural values are, what motivates them, what their hopes and dreams are, and what their belief and value systems (are)," she said.
The workshop Saturday at the Four Seasons Resort Lana'i Manele Bay, organized by the Filipino Working Group, is aimed at smoothing ethnic slights, often due to ignorance; to help those attending acquire tools for effective communication and working with relationships with Filipinos; to gain a better understanding of Filipino historical background and cultural value systems; and to improve understanding of the strengths and stress factors that affect the health and well-being of Filipinos.
This is the second conference organized by the Filipino Working Group, which was organized in 2006 by Soberano; Virginia Cantorna, a psychologist with the state Department of Education; Kim Compoc, former executive director of Mediation Services of Maui and currently a theater director; and Jeny Bissell, a registered nurse and public health administrator.
Lanai seemed an appropriate place to hold this conference with about 60 percent of Lanai's population of Filipino descent.
"The workshop truly is a collaboration among neighbors, grass-roots organizations, community leaders, working together for a healthier Lanai," said activist Butch Gima in a news release about the conference.
"From my point of view, this is groundbreaking," said Soberano. "The community is initiating this. . . . It's the village; we are all part of the solution."
Those making presentations at the workshop include Helena Manzano, project director of Honolulu's Domestic Violence Action Center's Philipina Rural Project; Jessie F. Myers, entrepreneur; Mary Santa Maria, public health educator; Cantorna, Soberano and Bissell.
"It is important that Lanai not be excluded, that not everything happens only in Honolulu or Maui," said Bissell in the news release.
She believes that the conference will improve communication and relationships among Lanai residents, families, businesses, health and human service agencies and schools.
In keeping with that spirit, the Four Seasons is sending 30 managers to the workshop "to learn about the strengths of their workers of Filipino ancestry, as well as the challenges they face," said Gima.
Simple cultural differences can lead to large misunderstandings. For example, Filipinos look to the ground to show respect for their bosses, who may interpret this as a sign of disrespect, Soberano explained.
"Where there is misunderstanding and miscommunication, it's time wasted, missed learning opportunities, teaching opportunities," said Soberano. "Productivity is reduced."
If employers become culturally competent, relationships with their workers will improve, and everyone benefits.
"We all have a basic need to be respected, valued," said Soberano. "When that happens, employees become more motivated."
Likewise, Filipinos need competency in the ways of America and other cultures. New arrivals need to be given an orientation.
"They do not really know what prevails in a particular community," said Soberano.
They need to be indoctrinated in the culture and laws of this country; to learn, for example, that physical discipline is illegal and that counseling is available for problems such as those relating to mental health.
"We have an obligation to educate ourselves," she said. "It's a two-way street."
Filipinos could have a much higher standing in Hawaii and not be the butt of jokes, said Soberano, who brings a Canadian perspective. She said Filipinos in Hawaii have had a longer and more difficult journey than Filipinos in Canada, who first immigrated there in the 1960s. Many were health care professionals.
In Canada in the 1970s, "people always said you have to open your eyes really wide to see a Filipino walking though the criminal justice system," said Soberano, who moved to Maui about 4 years ago.
There were children of other ethnic groups who wanted to be Filipino, she recalled.
"We are held in very high regard unlike here on Maui," she said. "There are very negative stereotypes. . . . We can't eliminate them, but we can minimize them.
"Filipinos need not be treated this way."
There are still some spaces available for the conference, which is free due to the sponsorship of the Four Seasons Resort Lana'i; Hawaii People's Fund; state Department of Education Maui District; Lanai High and Elementary School; state Department of Health Maui District; Lanai Filipino Community Council; and Domestic Violence Action Center's Philipina Rural Project. The conference runs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the hotel's Hale Halawai Ballroom. Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. with light refreshments.
To register or for more information, call Jessie Myers on Lanai at (808) 565-7900, ext. 243, or (808) 559-0157; or Bissell at (808) 984-2136 or e-mail mauifwg@earthlink. net.

A teen patient at Palmetto Behavioral Health is accused of vandalizing an employees car because she was upset after their appointment.
Palmetto Behavioral, on Midland Parkway, is a residential facility treating adolescents aged 7 to 21 who need a highly-structured, supervised therapeutic environment.
The center burst into public view in 2011 when four teens accused of violent crimes in Washington, D.C., escaped from the center.
Until that point, neighbors didnt realize that out-of-state patients were being treated there, or that some had been accused of violent crimes.
Palmetto Behavioral responded by changing some of its policies for admitting patients, retraining staff, changing leadership and erecting a chain-link fence around the facility.
Summerville Police were called to the center July 1 for a vandalism complaint.
An employee said a 16-year-old female patient became upset at her appointment, got into the employee parking lot and kicked the employees car. The employee said she didnt witness the incident but other workers did.
The police report noted dents in the cars drivers side front door, trunk and passenger side front fender.
However, the employee was unwilling to provide the teens name, saying the facilitys management was discussing options.

Choosing More Time for Students
The What, Why, and How of Expanded Learning
Read the full report (pdf)
A crescendo of support from education researchers, analysts, reform advocates, and lawmakers about the need for additional learning time for our nation's under-performing students may well result in the coming months in meaningful reform. In fact, U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings believes that the expansion of learning time will be the next major push in school reform. The reason: our nation's public school students need to meet the demands and challenges of the 21st century but they simply cannot in public school systems that remain much the same as they were 50 years ago. The shift in educational rigor that globalization has ushered in is pushing policymakers to embrace systemic change in public education, with particular focus on closing achievement gaps between disadvantaged students and their peers.
In rethinking what it will take for our public schools to better serve students who are academically behind, wisdom tell us that a comprehensive approach that encompasses numerous options will provide the best opportunity to support student learning. The expansion of learning time can serve as one effective vehicle to modernize our schools because it allows teachers, principals, community organizations and leaders, and parents to build multiple curriculums to best educate our children to succeed in the 21st century. Expanded learning time turns dissatisfaction with the limitations of the current six-hour, 180-day school year into a proactive strategy that will create a new school structure for children.
Making more and better use of learning time by lengthening the school day, week, or year doesn't just change what happens between the hours of 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Expanding learning time changes what happens from 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. and often encompasses additional days in the school calendar throughout the year to accelerate student learning and development. In short, expanding time for learning will revolutionize the way we teach our children.
To navigate through this forthcoming and thorough-going school reform effort, this paper will define what expanded learning time means, highlight what model programs look like when used effectively, and address how to successfully implement such reform efforts. As will become clear, expanded learning time is all about using time in ways that greatly benefit our students.

curried roasted cheddar cheese cauliflower soup, gluten free
Submitted by Charissa Fleischer on
When I'm in need of inspiration, I frequently walk the farmers markets. It's a very sensual experience. I smell the different herbs, the flowers, and even the kettle corn. I feel the rough edges of a prickly cucumber, the smooth flesh of an heirloom tomato, and the fuzzy skin of a ripe peach. And of course the colors of freshly plucked fruits and veggies are vibrant with life.

Despite the weather, Bixi stations in downtown Montreal are busy this morning for the first day of what's being considered a make-or-break season for the popular but money-losing bike-sharing service.
This is the first season that Bixi will be run by the city as a not for profit organization under the name Bixi Montreal. At the time of the announcement last month, mayor Denis Coderre suggested it might be Bixi's final season if it doesn't turn a profit.
In the meantime, the city says there will be no change in the service offered to Montrealers from last month. At the moment, two-thirds of the bikes are available, with the rest rolling out before the end of the month.
The company remains under bankruptcy protection, as it has been since January.

Brazil's IVD celebration focuses on youth
05 December 2002
Minas Gerais: The United Nations Volunteer (UNV) programme, together with local organizations Fundação Conscienciarte and Fundação Peiropolis, today held workshops for youth volunteers on volunteering and values to celebrate International Volunteer Day (IVD).
Workshops on "Youth Pioneering and Volunteering" or "Encontro Regional de Protagonismo Juvenil" were attended by more than 300 young people between the ages 17 and 21. The activities aimed to encourage the youth to become active volunteers through teaching of values on volunteering. It was held in Paracatu, Patos de Minas, Uberaba and Uberlândia cities in the region of Minas Gerais, located 300 kilometres from the capital Brasilia.
Other IVD activities include blood donations and poetry writing contests both participated by more than 500 youth in Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso do Sul.
The events were organized by Fundação Conscienciarte, a non-governmental organization working with youth and addresses youth-related issues, and Fundação Peiropolis, an organization that provides training programmes for youth educators and promotes values of peace and non-violence.

In The Powers of Philology, Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht describes the situation in which a return to commentary is becoming inevitable: "The vision of the empty chip constitutes a threat, a veritable horror vacui not only for the electronic media industry but also, I suppose, for our intellectual and cultural self-appreciation. It might promote, once again, a reappreciation of the principle and substance of copia. And it might bring about a situation in which we will no longer be embarrassed to admit that filling up margins is what commentaries mostly do—and what they do best" (53). As interlocutors with a period when commentary was a, if not the, central mode of authorship (cf. Bonaventure's four ways of making a book), medievalists are in a special position to shape the future of commentary. And there is much recent work which indicates we are doing so. Yet the commentary genre remains, like a popolo minuto of the academic city-state, a subordinate category: useful, essential, but excluded from the spaces of governance and authority. What can/should the commentary become and how might medievalists shape its becoming? What is commentary's unrealized intellectual and creative potential? How will a return to commentary, as a recentering of the marginal, structure the way scholars and students experience, understand, and work within the world?

In the game, you pick one player from each team. The stat categories were simple: Goals, assists, GWG, goalie wins, and goalie shutouts. The sign-up fee was $20, and it was winner-take-all. The game was run through some websites that let the organizers of the game take everyone's roster and input them via spreadsheets. About 100+ people signed up. Of course our team folded early because we didn't do the right research, but it made the NHL playoffs a little more fun. We wanted to compound upon this. During the summer of 2009, we began planning a fantasy game that was centered around the Penguins. This game was gonna go above and beyond the Penguins' current "Extra Attacker." One thing we love to do is give away shit. And it has always been our dream to give away a shitload of money to someone. Of course the one thing that shut everything down in the planning stages of the Penguins Fantasy game was that, for the longest time, we believed Fantasy Sports was gambling. Huge mistake. After some phone calls and extensive hours of research, it turns out Fantasy Sports is not gambling. From a fact sheet about the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006: "The typical fantasy sports league is not "gambling" because winning is based predominantly on skill and knowledge about the featured sport and its athletes, not on chance. In other words, fantasy sports leagues challenge the participants to exercise judgment-making skills similar to a coach or general manager. To make sure that gambling businesses do not try to cloak their gambling in the clothing of "fantasy sports," UIGEA places limits on how prizes may be awarded in fantasy sports leagues, if a participation fee is charged for the game. Beyond that, most fantasy games are free and any game that is free is not "gambling." So, after that, the wheels started to spin. We halted production on our Penguins fantasy game and started to focus on a fantasy game for the NHL playoffs and the Olympics. We joined money leagues for Fantasy Football and Hockey at CBS Sportsline and ESPN as part of our research. We began to formulate ideas on something that would be fun, something that would be lucrative for people, and something that would be easy. Fantasy sports is a grind for an entire season. We like that dynamic, but some people like to "set it and forget it", to set up their team and let it ride for the duration of a fantasy season. And we have created that. We were able to find an online merchant that supports Fantasy sports (a huge win for the Fantasy community), as well as secure The Pensblog, LLC as a legal business. We were even able to get a 1-800 number for customer support. The result of all the hard work is Rinkotology: 2010 Winter Games Edition. Who else to turn to than Anteepa Web & Marketing Solutions to make this a reality? We've really hamstrung them, using our usual M.O. of waiting until around the last possible minute to kick things into gear. They're working pretty hard. We wanted this up and running today, in fact. But in reality, it's actually good that we're anticipating a launch date closer to the Olympics, since injuries to NHL players and other Olympians will adversely affect the game (see: uncertainty surrounding Ryan Getzlaf). And then we also have to worry about Russia's bullshit taxi squad that is being rumored. Here's how the game works: 1.) Before the Olympics begin, you will pick 8 forwards, 3 defensemen, and 1 goalie. Only one player can be chosen from each country. EX: For Team Sweden, do you pick Henrik Zetterberg or Henrik Lundqvist? For Canada, do you pick Brodeur, Crosby, or even Drew Doughty? YOU ONLY HAVE TO PICK YOUR TEAM ONCE. THERE WILL BE NO NEED TO RESET ROSTERS ON A DAILY BASIS. SET IT AND FORGET IT. 2.) You will also be choosing one player to be your Captain and two players to be Assistant Captains. Goalies cannot be chosen for either. Captain's points are worth triple value. Assistants' points are worth double value. That is the groundwork of the game. Very simple. The points system will become available when the website is launched. 3.) Tiebreaking scenarios are as follows: a). In the event that users have the same exact team, the Gold Medal game will be a special one-game playoff, where each user would pick 5 players from each team. b). In the event of a tie in which teams aren't exactly the same, the tiebreaker will be goals, then assists, then lowest goals-against average, then game-winning goals that your entire team/goalie has accumulated throughout the Olympics. b1.) If a winner cannot somehow be determined by those criteria, we will be aware of it before the Gold Medal game and set up the Gold Medal game as a one-game playoff. b2.) In the event that USER "A" pushes himself or herself into a tie in the Gold Medal game (i.e. USER "A" is behind in points and has players accumulate points in the Gold Medal game while USER "B" does not have players in the game), we will enact tiebreaker "b" detailed in this section. If, somehow, no winner can be determined from that, we will break the glass and institute the emergency tiebreaking scenario. b3.) Emergency tiebreaking scenario: USER "A" vs. USER "B". Whichever team scored first in the Olympics wins. EX: USER "A" has Jamie Langenbrunner, and he scores in the first game of the Olympics, giving USER "A" his or her first team goal. USER "B" has Alex Ovechkin, and he scores in the second game of the Olympics, giving USER "B" his or her first team goal. USER "A" wins. But what are the chances two goalies will have identical goals-against averages? That is why this is the emergency scenario. 4.) $10 Entry Fee Prizes: 1st place — $500 and Championship Belt 2nd place — $400 3rd place — $300 4th place — $200 5th place — $100 5.) Tips: Given the nature of this contest, picking the right combination of players is obviously key. But your goaltender may very well end up being your dark horse. 6.) We will be holding a contest similar to this for the upcoming NHL playoffs, as well as having a Penguins-exclusive bi-weekly or monthly game in place for next season.

Programming Reality
Perspectives on English-Canadian Television
Paper 354 pp.
Release Date:
Online discount: 25%
$42.99 $32.24
Programming Reality: Perspectives on English-Canadian Television, the first anthology dedicated to analyses of Canadian television content, is a collection of original, interdisciplinary articles, combining textual analysis and political economy of communications. It explores the television that has thrived in the Canadian regulatory and cultural context: namely, programs that straddle the border between reality and fiction or even blur it. The conceptual basis of this collection is the hybrid nature of television fare: the widely theorized notion that all mediations of reality involve fiction in the form of narrative or symbolic shaping. Each of the contributions here is a reminder, too, of the significant relationship of television to nation building in Canada—to the imaginative work involved in thinking through the relations that constitute nations, citizens, and communities. The collection focuses on English-language Canadian television because the imperatives guiding its texts are markedly different from those pertaining to their French-lanugage counterparts. The collection, therefore, develops a nuance of perspective on the cultural and political economic specificities that inform the imaginative work of television production for English Canada.

Therapeutic vaccine based on firm's antigen-specific technology is designed to halt autoimmune responses.[Le Biplan-Fotolia.com]
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is providing milestone-based financial support and expertise to aid Selecta Bioscience's development of a vaccine for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. The aim of the progam is to develop a therapeutic vaccine based on Selecta's antigen-specific tolerogenic vaccine technology designed to halt or prevents the autoimmune response that causes type 1 diabetes.
Selecta claims a tolerogenic diabetes vaccine based on its platform could potentially also be used in conjunction with other treatments to help preserve remaining beta cell function in recently diagnosed patients, or alongside regenerative or replacement therapies to protect newly regenerated or transplanted insulin-producing beta cells in established cases of disease.
The research collaboration with Selecta falls within the JDRF's Industry Discovery and Development Partnership (IDDP) initiative, through which it works with the industry on new treatments for type 1 diabetes.
Selecta's targeted vaccine approach hinges on its Synthetic Vaccine Particle (SVP™) platform, which is designed to induce either antigen-specific immune activation or antigen-specific immune tolerance, for both therapeutic and prophylactic candidates, the firm states. Targeted SVP candidates (tSVPs) comprise a B-cell antigen, T-cell antigen, and adjuvant, packaged into a fully-integrated synthetic nanoparticle vaccine designed to stimulate an antigen-specific immune response.
In contrast, targeted tolerogenic Synthetic Vaccine Particle (t2SVP™) candidates are designed to induce an antigen-specific immune tolerance by instructing the immune system to prevent and suppress pro-inflammatory responses specifically against the antigen presented in the vaccine. Potential applications for the t2SVP technology include autoimmune diseases, allergies, and transplant rejection, Selecta claims. The t2SVP tolerogenic vaccine for treating type 1 diabetes is currently at the discovery phase.
Selecta has generated targeted tSVPs that elicit robust immune responses to small molecules, peptides, oligosaccharides, and proteins, and which target either humoral or cellular pathways in a range of therapeutic areas. The firm's pipeline is headed by SEL-068, a tSVP for smoking cessation and relapse prevention, which is projected to start in first-in-man trials during late 2011. Additional lead optimization and discovery-stage candidates include a universal HPV tSVP, a universal tSVP for influenza, and candidates targeting allergy and cancers.

You have to love a man who loves his mother. Political satirist and wildly popular television host Stephen Colbert broke character in the aftermath of his mother's death to pay a moving tribute to her. Because the courage, grit, humility and sincerity this superstar brought to this moment, Poets & Lunatics has made Stephen Colbert June's Lunatic of the Month.
Colbert's words speak for themselves. I add here, as a prelude, only a portion of the poem "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman, which captures the essence of the soul-bond between mothers and sons:
I wish I could translate the hints about the dead young men and women,
And the hints about old men and mothers, and the offspring taken soon out of their laps.
What do you think has become of the young and old men?
And what do you think has become of the women and children?
They are alive and well somewhere; The smallest sprout shows there is really no death;
And if ever there was, it led forward life, and does not wait at the end to arrest it,
And ceas'd the moment life appear'd.
All goes onward and outward—nothing collapses;
And to die is different from what any one supposed, and luckier.
* * * *
I am the poet of the woman the same as the man;
And I say it is as great to be a woman as to be a man;
And I say there is nothing greater than the mother of men.

LinkedIn acquires media tracking service Newsle
LinkedIn announced today that it has acquired media tracking platform Newsle.
Newsle is a useful service for keeping track of people in the news. It's especially handy for journalists who want to keep tabs on certain personalities within their beat. The platform sends notifications every time a person or company you're tracking shows up in the media, whether it's a national news publication or a niche blog. LinkedIn will now offer these services to its users, creating better opportunities for them to network and keep track of the people they want to connect with.
In a blog post about the acquisition, LinkedIn's head of content products Ryan Roslansky says: "We (LinkedIn and Newsle) both want to provide professional insights that make you better at what you do. For example, knowing more about the people in your network – like when they're mentioned in the news – can surface relevant insights that help you hit your next meeting with them out of the park."
For B2B sales and marketing teams, Newsle will allow them to track potential leads, keeping up to date with all their media appearances, giving them an additional resource when it comes to building a file on a future client. And finally it's a good way for job seekers to gather even more information about their future employers, using the platform to scour the net, providing the latest news info to take into a job interview.
With the Newsle acquisition, LinkedIn now has the ability to make all the content it's providing on its network (through Pulse news and its Influencer posts) more than just entertaining reading. For professionals, the content is now a source of actionable insights.
While Newsle will add all its functionality to the LinkedIn platform, it will continue to operate as a standalone product as well.

A New Yorker Heads West
An Art-Filled L.A. Weekend
It was with great excitement that I traveled to Los Angeles two weekends ago to participate in the kick-start of Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945-1980, a six-month initiative highlighting the rich and evolving art scene of this vibrant city. Having been born and raised in New York City, I have come to cherish its unique cultural history—claiming "Museum Mile" as my own backyard and its prestigious museums as my playground. Yet while inherently proud of New York-centric cultural movements such as the Harlem Renaissance and abstract expressionist painting, arts of the West Coast have always held a strong element of intrigue for me as well: pop, performance, conceptual art, collaboration! It was thus with keen anticipation that I embarked upon finally experiencing this Western cultural locus in person.
Upon arriving in L.A., I was immediately struck by its topographical distinction: rolling California hills penetrated by multitudes of unique and bustling neighborhoods. The juxtapositions between outdoors and indoors and expansiveness and intimacy were themes I continuously encountered throughout the city in terms of landscape, lifestyle, and certainly artistic expression.
My first stop was at the Art Platform – Los Angeles fair, an official sponsor of Pacific Standard Time that contributed to the diverse representation of Southern California's art community through multifarious gallery exhibitions. Here, innovative art initiatives such as the performance art journal Native Strategies found a forum through which to disseminate critical reflections on creative expression in L.A. In its first volume, performance artist Brian Getnick reflected: "I've been seeing a type of performance art that has an urgency in its engagement with its audience, through humor and through anachronistic forms of entertainment." Indeed, my experiences exploring art for the next few days in L.A. revealed a cultural landscape at once nostalgic in its site-specific history, relevant in its social reflection, and forward-thinking in its cultural exploration.
These nuanced occupations of time and meaning were reiterated in my next destination: the art district Culver City. I found a current gallery installation of Charles Gaines' Skybox (2011) especially powerful in its capacity to distill time and exploit viewer engagement. Entering a dark room, I was immediately mesmerized and drawn towards a canvas of luminescence in which countless stars were twinkling before my eyes. After prolonged minutes of transcendent looking, the lights in the gallery slowly brightened and, to my great surprise, the iridescent specks reduced to reveal text. With light, both literal and symbolic, historical passages exploring concepts of social justice are disclosed to the viewer, only to be slowly concealed yet again by the dimming of lights and emergence of the intergalactic sublime. The ceaseless sunrise and sunset achieved creates a space in which the viewer meditates upon greater visual, social, and metaphysical perspectives. In that moment, I felt intellectually responsible for what I was reading and, moreover, emotionally inspired by what I was physically experiencing.
Another highlight was a gallery featuring works by Betye Saar and David Hammons, two renowned artists who began their careers in L.A. and engage in a dialogue of civil activism and aesthetic exploration. While Betye Saar's Red Time installation utilizes found objects and assemblage, photographs of David Hammons capture the process of his performance and multimedia practices. These smaller exhibitions served as the perfect introduction to my main reason for visiting L.A.: the Now Dig This! Art & Black Los Angeles 1960-1980 exhibition curated by Kellie Jones with the assistance of Naima Keith—a new Assistant Curator at the Studio Museum.
Now Dig This! offers an ambitiously comprehensive and critical approach to the artistic legacy of African American artists during the Civil Rights and Black Power movements. If the title alone doesn't draw you in with excited intrigue, the sheer scope of the artworks featured certainly will: 140 seminal pieces finally given the prestigious exhibitionary exposure they deserve. Throughout my art historical studies, I had viewed many of these inspiring works, but only in the reduced forms of slideshow projections and book reproductions. Yet as I walked from room to room, these objects began to spring to life - unraveling their powerful stories and connections before my very eyes. As is particularly well illustrated through works by Saar and Hammons, two artists of focus in the show, the exhibition introduces a distinct aesthetic reflecting the environmental and art contexts unique to the West Coast emphasizing assemblage, installation, and performance.
Saar's spiritually and socially charged compositions articulate an empowered representation of collective black identity and aesthetic through subversive assemblages of found objects. Aunt Jemima, for example, serves as a potent figure of symbolic reclamation as Saar puts grenades and guns in the place of pancakes, endowing this idealized and subservient racial stereotype with physical and emotional ammunition. David Hammons' work also seeks to utilize and elevate discarded objects, as illustrated by Bag Lady in Flight, a playful reference to colloquial culture, jazz, and Marcel Duchamp's readymades and concept of the "Fourth Dimension." In this work, Hammons transforms paper bags, grease, and hair into a rhythmic and sinuous sculpture – provocative materials and ideas looming beneath every undulating layer. Hammons' performance and multimedia work is further explored in an exhibition of several acclaimed "body prints," achieved by pressing oil-covered bodies against paper. Having just viewed a photograph in the Culver City gallery exhibition portraying Hammons creating this type of work in action, it was truly enlightening to encounter the final result. Only ghost-like yet spirited leftovers remain from the physically rigorous and at times violent process of imprinting the body, suggesting the complex experiences of identity formation and representation.
My trip concluded with a day spent at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art—a sprawling cultural center on Museum Row constituting the largest art institution in the western United States. Given its location, scale, and mission, LACMA mirrored many of my sweeping impressions of L.A. from the busy weekend: expansive, diverse, and fostering culturally dynamic experiences in public spaces. All of these unique attributes came to a climactic realization in Chris Burden's outdoor installation Urban Light (2008), comprising 202 antique cast-iron streetlamps orderly composed to create a contemporary coliseum of recycled L.A. design (pictured above). Referential on historical, global, and local levels, this urban forest beckons all viewers to traverse its dynamic grid and become active inhabitants of the rich and sophisticated city of Los Angeles. Whether you choose to perform, reflect, or merely exist within this charged space—you become fully involved in the city's nostalgic past, energetic present, and visionary future. From subversive to sublime, the exhibitions I experienced in L.A. all create sites of cultural agency, turning towards the physical and social landscape of the city itself for inspiration.

Directive 2000/14/EC relating to the noise emission in the environment by equipment for use outdoors was adopted by the European Parliament and the Council and first published in May 2000.The Directive was applied from January 3rd, 2002.
The implementation of the Directive has a number of objectives. Firstly, it aims to protect the health and well-being of citizens as well as protecting the environment; the European Commission views noise in the environment as one of the main, local environmental problems in Europe.
The Directive plans to prevent technical obstacles to trade. These may arise out of member states' differing noise requirements for outdoor equipment.
Another aim is the simplification of existing legislation and the creation of a framework for future noise reduction as and when technological developments allow.
Finally, the Directive aims to provide the public with information on the noise emitted by such equipment.
The regulation applies to a wide range of product types from gardening equipment to construction and waste-management equipment. Such products must bear a CE-mark and the indication of their guaranteed sound-power level and be accompanied by an EC declaration of conformity before they can be placed on the market.The guaranteed sound-power level is the sound-power level as defined in ISO 3744 with the addition of uncertainties (due to production variations and measurement procedures), which the manufacturer confirms will not be exceeded. Therefore, in order to obtain estimates of these uncertainties, a sampling procedure on the production line may be appropriate.
The Directive also places sound-power limits on 22 of the 57 types of equipment for use outdoors. Of these 22, 11 were already subject to noise limits laid down in 7 older Directives which are now withdrawn and replaced by the new Directive. The other 11 types are subject to noise limits for the first time. All manufacturers of products subject to noise limits must follow conformity assessment procedures under the supervision of notified bodies which are appointed by EU member states.
Failure to comply with these regulations may result in products being prohibited from being placed on the EU market.The badge indicating compliance with the Directive is shown top-right on this page.
Equipment lists:
The new Directive is available on the official European Union website in pdf format : http://ec.europa.eu/environment/noise/pdf/d0014_en.pdf

We present 5-36 micron spectra of carbon stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The spectra were obtained using the low-resolution mode of the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The lower metallicity in the SMC results in carbon stars of lower mass and lower rates of dust production compared to the Milky Way. These differences between the SMC and Galactic sample provide us with an opportunity to explore the effects of metallicity on the strength of the molecular absorption bands and the strength and shape of the dust emission from amorphous carbon, SiC, and MgS. We compare our new IRS spectra to archival spectra of Galactic carbon stars from the Low-Resolution Spectrometer on IRAS and the Short Wavelength Spectrometer on ISO.
This work is based in part on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology under NASA contract 1407. Support for this work was provided by NASA.

text: Explore Croatia Fact file Where to go When to go Getting there Getting around Accommodation Food and drink The media Festivals Sports and the outdoors Shopping Travel essentials Share Croatia's most celebrated hors d'oeuvre is pršut, home-cured ham served in thin, melt-in-the-mouth slices. Pršut is mainly produced in inland Istria and Dalmatia, where it's common for families to own a handful of pigs. The unlucky porkers are slaughtered in late autumn, and the hind legs from which pršut is made are laboriously washed, salted and flattened under rocks. They are then hung outside the house to be dried out by the bura, a cold, dry wind that sweeps down to the coast from inland Croatia. After that, the ham is hung indoors to mature, ready to be eaten the following summer. Pršut from Dalmatia is usually smoked at some stage during the maturing period, while that from Istria is left as it is, producing a significant difference in flavour between the two regions' produce.

Helps fights off all kinds of problems
Posted by Reviewer1674845 on Mar 28, 2007
I used to take a variety of herbs and vitamins when I felt a cold coming on, but now I use this single product instead. It's easy to get sick when traveling, so I always carry this product, Xlear nasal wash, and Hyland's homeopathic sore throat tablets. Those usually take care of it but if not, I take olive leaf extract with at least 18% oleuropein.
Review of DefensePlus
Posted by Reviewer2167406 on Oct 15, 2008
I am very happy with the results of this product. I purchased it due to a minor sinus infection, which the product helped to relieve in a short period of time. I plan on continuing to take the product daily to prevent colds, flus, and any possible sinuse infections.
very potent
Posted by Reviewer2967975 on Jan 11, 2008
I use it whenever I feel I need to boost my immune systems, like get a cold, sore throat, even lyme disease... cuz don't want to mess up with antibiotics. It is so potent and And it shows effectiveness within a couple days. Great product.
Works like a charm!
Posted by Reviewer2966228 on May 19, 2008
I love this stuff. It combines the antibiotic effect of grapefruit seed extract with other great immune boosters. I take this at the first sign of any illness. It is great to take as preventative as well. I will keep this in my medicine cabinet for sure.
My Flu defense
Posted by Reviewer3308690 on Mar 27, 2009
I love this stuff. I take it the moment I start to feel something coming on and wham! its gone. Since I have started taking this product several years ago I have been able to avoid all of the illnesses that I am exposed to in the healthcare field. Even when everyone around me is sick I sail thru it with no problems. The only time I have gotten sick in the past year was when I had run out of this awesome product.
Good product!
Posted by Reviewer2201914 on Mar 23, 2010
My daughter and I both use this product in place of antibiotics in several cases. She and I both are diagnosed with a anti-immune disorder, and the use of antibiotics cause us more trouble than help, so we have been using GPS for years, at the first sign of any infection. I would greatly recommend this product.
Great Weapon Against Colds and Flu
Posted by Reviewer2064524 on Oct 24, 2009
This product should be in every home, especially during cold and flu season. Helps build immunity to many seasonal "nasties" out there. We can use all the help we can get when it comes to fighting off illness, and this is one of the absolute best products for this purpose. Highly recommended.
Wow! Keeps sickness away.
Posted by 52NewYou on Feb 09, 2010
I believe that we have stayed clear of being sick this winter, because of these vitamins.

NutriBiotic, DefensePlus, 250 mg Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE), 90 Vegan Tablets (
Posted by Reviewer1046347 on Nov 02, 2011
These tablets were purchased on behalf of my son at the request of his naturopath. So I cannot give a personal review as such. But from what my son tells me he has been feeling much better in health since taking these tablets. It has strengthened his immune system. The only small complaint I have is that the dispatch time is slow to Australia.
