Educational attainment of women in the labor force, 1970–2010
December 29, 2011
Over the past 40 years, the educational attainment of women aged 25 to 64 in the labor force has risen substantially. In 2010, 36 percent of these women held college degrees, compared with 11 percent in 1970.
In 2010, 7 percent of women aged 25 to 64 in the labor force were high school dropouts, down from 34 percent in 1970. Among these women, 30 percent attended some college (no degree), or held an associate's degree in 2010, up from 11 percent in 1970.
These data are from the Current Population Survey. To learn more, see Women in the Labor Force: A Databook (2011 Edition), BLS Report 1034, December 2011. Due to rounding, the sum of percent distributions may not equal 100. Data for 1970, 1980, and 1990 are for March of each year and the educational attainment categories are based on the number of years of school completed (i.e. less than 4 years of high school, 4 years of high school and no college, 1 to 3 years of college, and 4 years or more of college). Data for 2000 and 2010 are annual averages and refer to the highest diploma or degree received.

VIDEO: Bucs OG Kadeem Edwards on Adjusting to NFL
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookies just wrapped up their first week as pros, and for offensive guard Kadeem Edwards it's been an eye-opening experience. It started with arriving at One Buc Place and getting a chance to practice with the veterans, something Edwards said was much more difficult and better prepared him for rookie camp practices.
?Earlier during the week it was a lot more ? it was a new groove. I just got here and went to training with the veterans. This was fairly easy compared to what we were doing during the week, so I think that helped me a lot.?
He's also gotten some help from offensive line coach George Warhop, who spent a lot of time this weekend working with the rookies on everything from hand usage to blocking and footwork, refining their technique as much as possible.
?He?s very, very detailed. He?s detailed [on] the plays ? he wants everything right. I?ve never had a coach who wanted everything right from every detail, from every point, every direction. He wants everything right.?

Comedy from Opry to Waukesha's Fox River Christian Church

The Dietary Guidance Working Group is a group of selected nutrition professionals from USDA who oversees the review of Federal nutrition-related materials, and ensures consistency with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DG), the basis for Federal nutrition policy. Dietary guidance review of Federal nutrition-related documents is important for consistent, accurate messages so that Federal government agencies speak with one voice when it comes to interpreting the DG. This review process is intended as a policy review that allows for creative interpretation of healthy eating and physical activity messages, not as a peer or editorial review.
Since 1986, the Dietary Guidance Working Group has reviewed more than 450 submissions of Federal material containing dietary guidance for the general public produced by USDA and/or U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Review of draft nutrition materials by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Dietary Guidance Working Group and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Committee on Dietary Guidance fulfills the legislative mandate, the National Nutrition Monitoring and Related Research Act (NNMRRA) of 1990, to ensure that Federal dietary guidance is consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and is scientifically accurate.

Diaz, Mann boost 'Other Woman'
In "The Other Woman," they throw everything at the wall to see what sticks. Most of it does. It's an escapist women's empowerment comedy like many others, but elevated by the simple virtue of being, for most of its length, very, very funny.
Set in an upper-class milieu of sleek Manhattan condos, designer clothes and pristine Caribbean beaches, the story follows three women who realize they're being triple-timed by a cad and join forces to deliver his comeuppance.
Cameron Diaz plays the brains of the operation, a sharp-tongued killer lawyer in a whirlwind romance with a handsome executive (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau). Leslie Mann is his blithely daffy wife, who is also unaware of his duplicity. When the women discover one another's existence, the comic sparks fly.
The characters are surprisingly well-developed for this sort of genre fare. Diaz plays her character as a woman of steely intelligence and cynical wit, an alpha female used to stiff-arming her adversaries and bailing out of unsatisfactory emotional entanglements.
Mann, an exuberant comedienne, makes a feast of her role, the wronged wife as an innocent, oversharing catalyst of chaos. It's a career-best performance for Mann, a fizzy brew of vulnerability and pluck.
In another nice touch, the women aren't immediately hellbent on retaliating against Coster-Waldau. Diaz declares that "monogamy isn't a natural state" and wants to move ahead with her life.
Mann vacillates, more than half ready to preserve her hollow but privileged status quo. But when they spot him with yet another other woman (Sports Illustrated cover girl Kate Upton), they recruit her in a plan to teach him a painful lesson or three.
As a model and actress, Upton is no Brooklyn Decker. Still, the overall tone is of buoyant good cheer and jazzy spontaneity.
Director Nick Cassavetes ("The Notebook") encourages his actors to perform their hearts out, and most of them deliver above-average work in return. The pert, nimble Mann and wisecracking Diaz have a sparkling comedic chemistry; they seem to enjoy each other's company.
Coster-Waldau is solid as a man who has learned to fake sincerity well enough to fool smart women. When he acts repentant after being exposed, he half-fools us, too. Even in an explosive "Dumb and Dumber" toilet scene, he brings his A game. That, people, is acting.

I've read on multiple web sites that Asians have larger pancreas than europeans or africans. Africans having the smallest pancreas of all.
This is why african-americans have higher diabetes rates than caucasian-americans.
I've read that the ratio of upper body to lower body has something to do with this, too. The larger/longer your upper body and shorter your legs the more likely you have a larger pancreas and can tolerate a higher carb diet longer without becoming diabetic.
Africans seems to have long legs and shorter upper bodies, which would give them the smallest pancreas.
Not sure if this is all true, just things I've been reading around on the net.

Zipcar: Zipping into Juniata?
(Posted February 10, 2013)
A survey recently went out to students, asking their opinions on getting the Zipcar at Juniata. This car-sharing service would allow users to reserve self-service cars by the hour. Robert Yelnosky, vice president for finance and operations, shares some information on the Zipcar possibilities:
Q: Where did the idea of getting Zipcar for Juniata come from?
A: We have been talking about this for about six years. We first started talking about it with the Sustainability Team back in 2007 or 2008. Because of the nature of our campus and community, there aren't a lot of other businesses. It's hard to make it work financially at a small institution, and Zipcar was not as interested in rural locations. In the last few years they have gotten more interested and it has become more pervasive. We have talked to them about once a year to see where they think we are, and this year we decided to proceed more aggressively and started the survey. It has been talked about for a long time and hopefully we're now getting to implementation.
Q: Why Zipcar as opposed to other car-sharing services?
A: The nice thing that we see with Zip is that you can carry it with you after graduation. If you end up in a major metropolitan area, Zip is the most widely available carshare program out there. If you had an internship in the Washington, D.C., area and you're already a Zip member, you could use Zip to help defray some of your costs. So that's why we looked at Zip as the carshare option.
Q: Would Zipcar only be available for Juniata staff and students, or for the entire Huntingdon community?
A: If we could make it work, I think we would want to leverage the rest of the Huntingdon community, especially in the summer. If the demand was such that the campus wasn't using it enough, then even during the academic year we would want to leverage that a bit more. Some of the conversations we've had with Zip relate to how they make their model work in a small community. If we can make it make sense here, we want to look at how we can expand it.
Q: What are some of the challenges of getting Zipcar at Juniata?
A: The biggest challenge is having enough interest to afford to be able to do it. It boils down to how much people are interested in using it and how much they will actually use it. We've done a few tests of interest in the past, and there hasn't been a lot of enthusiasm around it among the students. We've had conversations with the students we had on the Sustainability Team and the Environmental Coalition and it hasn't been something that got them excited. It seems like this year there's a little bit more interest in it. it.
Q: If you do get enough interest to get Zipcar, when would we expect to see it?
A: If things go well, we would try to do maybe the last two months of this semester as an introduction, so maybe April and into the first weeks of May, and then in full force for fall of the next school year. We'd want to get to orientation, we'd want to get to parents and incoming students early so they can make decisions about whether to bring a vehicle or not. The other link in this, in terms of timing, is that this year we've started a broader transportation service where we're providing transportation service to the Harrisburg train station, the Harrisburg airport, the Harrisburg bus station, as well as to State College, and Megabus has certainly gotten more popular. You can more realistically say today to a student, "You can get here on public transportation, and while you're here you can use one of these vehicles."

PROLONGED ventricular tachycardia is still a rather infrequent occurrence and therefore warrants a report of cases. The longest case on record was reported by B. Moia and M. Campana,1 who state that it lasted for 123 days, ending fatally. Large doses of quinidine were administered intravenously. Most of the cases reported varied in duration from 11 to 77 days. Invariably, all cases lasting over 20 days ended fatally.
We shall review briefly some of the reports concerning prolonged ventricular tachycardia. Vakil and Vahia2 reported on a 38-year-old man, a Moslem, with ventricular tachycardia which continued without intermission for 20 days and terminated abruptly after intensive quinidine therapy.
Porter3 in 1924 reported a case lasting six days, with recovery. The patient had an underlying myocardial infarction. Levine and Fulton4 reported a fatal case of ventricular tachycardia in which the paroxysm continued for 14 days. Salley5 in 1932 cited a fatal case

THE lack of detailed information about the money being spent on President Jacob Zuma's home in Nkandla and the growing controversy in the matter lead one to consider more carefully why R250m of state funds were needed for the upgrade.
For the past two weeks, I have listened to the Democratic Alliance (DA) and the African National Congress (ANC) trying to explain why the money was either misspent or why it was not.
It has been hard to find common ground, yet I have found myself sympathising with Zuma's exasperation. Whether this will be borne out by the investigations into the matter by the public protector and the auditor-general on the instruction of the Department of Public Works remains to be seen.
The issue is of political importance for South Africa given the problems of corruption and poverty and one might have expected Zuma to have made an example of how such a project could be accomplished transparently. But Nkandla is in KwaZulu-Natal, where political tension runs high and politicians are still being murdered regularly. One might also have expected the DA to have had a few more facts at its fingertips before venturing on an inspection of the property, an event that inflamed tension in an area that is predominantly ANC-supporting.
The problem of excessive state spending seems to have arisen when the Department of Public Works and the Department of Defence decided that the security at the Nkandla property needed to be upgraded. Unlike other government ministers, the president is the commander of the armed forces and in times of conflict needs to be able to take charge from a safe place where there are enough services for swift transport, modern communication and effective security.
So it is reasonable to expect that these two departments should answer to the allegations of irregular spending.
The idea that Zuma should have inquired at these two departments about the cost of the cement being poured for the helicopter pad, or the underground bunker, for instance, is ludicrous. It is not his job to micromanage such things.
In addition, the Department of Defence is not likely to release a list of itemised expenditure on the president's security because it would defeat the object of the security upgrade.
The tar road just completed outside Nkandla, which is being hailed in some media as another example of extravagance on the part of the president, was first made a priority in KwaZulu-Natal in 2003, which was long before Zuma came to power.
Then there is the money involved. About R250m seems to be a large sum of money to be allocated for security measures at a private residence. But there are some mitigating factors here. Nkandla is deep in a rural area where there are few basic services such as water and sanitation. Additional transport, rough terrain and remote locations can all add significantly to construction costs — sometimes as much as 40%. In addition, Zuma's security personnel require housing and relaxation facilities near the house. They, and the president, would also need medical facilities close at hand.
One can speculate about the cost of the sophisticated equipment and facilities that may be required at the house of a commander of an army, such as high-specification radio, communication and security encryption equipment. This type of expenditure may sound outlandish as South Africa has no enemy, but all modern countries spend a great deal of money on the protection of their heads of state.
There is also the reality that whatever infrastructure the state spends money on these days, it inevitably ends up costing a great deal more than anybody envisaged. The R250m may still seem to be a large amount of money to have been spent, in spite of all these mitigating factors. But it most certainly does not point to Zuma being corrupt, as has been suggested in some quarters.
The DA's parliamentary leader, Lindiwe Mazibuko, was correct when she said in Parliament that when R250m of state funds is spent on a private residence, it can no longer be considered a private matter. It never was.
It is the home of South Africa's president, who is the leader of the biggest political party in the country.

NCAA Bball
Syracuse Orange at Georgetown Hoyas Basketball
Syracuse had a rough stretch and lost three straight, which dropped them out of contention to win the Big East. Georgetown on the other hand has emerged as the Big East's top team and has won 11 straight including wins over Notre Dame, Louisville, Syracuse, and Marquette. They have to win two more, including this one, to win the conference outright though, because Louisville and Marquette are right on their tail. Syracuse needs this win to keep from dropping further in the rankings and hurting their tournament seeding even more, so expect them to play at the top of their game from tip-off.

MM's are theives...
Sentiment: Strong Buy
they are only temporary and normally revert to a penny. this is typical of a volatile stock (one on the move) with temporary supply/demand imbalances.
It's not just MMs, it's up to retail make things truly liquid, MMs just fill in the rest. You don't like the spread? Put in a higher bid. ;) 39 x 40 now and some typical bullish consolidation going on, but overall I love the strength that continues to grow.
While the huge blocks were sitting at .34 and the bid/ask was .33 x .34 there were people all day long slipping in with fractions of a cent playing with it. I saw plenty of times where some would slip in to make it .331x.339
I suspect once we settle here, or whatever price it is, we'll see the same again until the next move higher.

Update on Lil' Eli
May 25, 2008 - Amy Jo Hanna-Eckenrode
Thanks for all your kind well wishes for our little Eli guy. I know you have helped to channel some very positive vibes our way that have aided the medication and TLC in helping him get better.
(photo: Eli lounging on bath mat waiting for me to finsh my calgon bath) I wanted to give an Eli update. Eli's health appears to be improving. His symptoms are all but gone including the sneezing. His appetite is incredible. He and Mazey are still co-existing. She is quite amused that he is apprehensive of her but today he actually layed next to us as I was rubbing Mazey's belly.
(photo right: Eli in middle of a craft project. He is of little help.) Thanks to www.catclub.net I've been able to attempt to break the cat code to decipher what the heck Eli is always talking about. He's a talker alright. Very loud when hungry but mouths a series of silent meows when he seems to be discussing an issue with me....
from: catclub.net: Vocal Sounds and body Language for Cat Owners 101/Morons/Me
Although a cat cannot talk to us it can communicate with ourselves and other animals by vocal sounds and body language.
(picture: Eli finally playing with a ribbon.)
A Happy Cat
A relaxed cat will let its eyelids rest half-closed. Its ears will point slightly forward and outward. A happy cat will greet its owner with an erect tail with the tail tip bent forward.
Passive Submission
When a cat rolls to one side from a crouched posture it signals passive submission. A frightened/submissive cat will have its tail low. A submissive cat will look away from the offender.
(photo: some aggressive tiger i've got, teasing eli with a leaf on his head. he must think he's in the jungle.)
Defensive Cat
When a cat feels threatened its eyes will dilate. Ears will be flatten to protect them from attack. A defensive cat will arch its back up to make itself look bigger. Its tail will be arched and bristled
Aggressive Cat
An aggressive cat will often put its ears back and hiss or growl at the intruder. It may position itself to look like it is ready to pounce or it may roll on its back with its teeth and claws displayed ready to fight. An aggressive cat's tail will be straight and bristled. When the tail thrashes from side to side it is a sign it is about to attack.

When it comes to Internet connectivity, wired still beats wireless. For now.
Yet the gap is closing, and with it Google's (NASDAQ: GOOGL ) opportunity to get millions more connected via fiber. Early tests of 802.11ac -- or what's become known as "gigabit Wi-Fi" -- are showing promise, according to a report in trade magazine Network World. I'd encourage you to read the entire article if you're tech-inclined.
The summary for investors who'd rather not go under the hood is that testers are getting anywhere between 400 Mbps and 800 Mbps access over configured gigabit Wi-Fi networks. For perspective, consider that my Mac gets a little more than 30 Mbps download speeds over a wired connection to the home router we use to access Comcast's Xfinity broadband service. Gigabit Wi-Fi would be a nice step for us.
Vendors know it, too. Apple's new iMacs feature an upgraded radio capable of handling 802.11ac. So does the Samsung Galaxy S4. Meanwhile, router manufacturers are upgrading their equipment to service these advanced devices. Aruba Networks introduced its 220 series "ac" router in May, while Ubiquiti Networks recently introduced gigabit router access points fit for connecting outdoor networks.
How big is the opportunity? A lot depends on how the technology handles large groups of data hungry users. There's also a difference between gigabit Wi-Fi (802.11ac) and what's called "WiGig" (802.11ad), which promises up to 7 Gbps of access over shorter distances. Vendors will need to develop the ecosystem for making these technologies useful to everyday consumers.
In the meantime, research suggests there's plenty of demand. IDC says the market for wireless local area network (WLAN) gear grew 10.8% worldwide in the second quarter. Sales of business-scale, or "enterprise" gear grew 14.8%. Good news for Aruba, Ubiquiti, their peers, and me -- a data-hungry user with an appetite for wireless gigabit.
Hurry up, Google. Attractive as fiber access might be someday, an impatient world wants to go faster right now.
Searching for returns
Fiber is just one of hundreds of Google investments, each with the potential to make investors millions. Can you name them all? Let's be honest: few investors could. That's because most of the company's secrets -- the ones that make savvy market-watchers rich -- often fly below the radar.

Here are the answers to your questions for me!
Q: "I would love to hear more about your Costume Design course--what classes do you take? What are your favorite time periods?"
A: Unfortunately, it is more of a concentration...my degree will be in Theatre, so I have to learn a lot outside of my classes, because there simply aren't very many. My classes are as follows: Basic Costume Design (drawing renderings for plays), 2 Costume History classes that cover up to 1920, a sample Mhttp://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=1105425262806282843&postID=1596973125030691211akeup course, and Advanced Costume Design which I have this semester. We will learn drafting, draping, advanced sewing skills, and maybe even a bit of millinery! I also get course credit for working in the Costume Shop and for designing a student-directed show (click here to see).
My favortie time period...unfortunately, in my line of work, you have to learn to find something good in every period or you'll go cuckoo! But I do have favorites, nonetheless. Obviously I love the first half of the 1900s, but they're still considered relatively modern. I adore Edwardian and Regency. My two least favorites are probably Civil War (I find this period horribly unflattering and hoop skirts are a nightmare) and Rococo (many interesting movies are set during this era, but panniers are yack).
Q: "What was the first vintage pattern that you ever sewed?"
A: Simplicity 5630, 1964. Sewed while watching the new Nancy Drew movie. It actually came out surprisingly well, for having no idea what I was doing and for using an icky liner fabric. I made a short sleeved version because I didn't want a jumper or long sleeves. My dad payed me the compliment of saying that I looked like my grandmother.
This is how it came out:
Q: "As for a question, what kinds of crochet projects have you done?"
A: Well, I've done about a bajillion granny squares it feels like, and yet only have enough for about a 1/4 of an afghan! These are my other projects:
They are all free ravelry.com patterns (one of my most favorite sites EVER). The two hats are the same pattern, and I made a third for my youngest sister but haven't got a photo of it yet. The last photo is the socks I was working on.
Q: "What was your first thought when you realized what was happening?" (when I sewed through my finger)
A: It wasn't bleeding so I think that is why my first thought was OMG I am stuck to my machine! Once I was out of the machine and I had noticed that it didn't really hurt, my next thought was that I should take Emma in case I got stuck in the waiting room. It only bothered me because anything remotely gory gives me the heebeejeebies.
Q: "... apart from your bra-less pyjama-ed state, what is the most embarrassing thing you've ever worn in public?"
A: Probably the outfit in the post below. Although at the time, I thought it was totally cool. That and everything my mom dressed me in from 5th grade through 9th. I think I need to do a post on my childhood fashions, they're quite amusing.

• Penny Arcade Expo (PAX): Sept. 3 - 5
• Tokyo Game Show: Sept. 16 - 19
Also, Yoshinori Ono jumped on his Twitter account to shoot down one more character possibility, albeit a long shot, for Super Street Fighter 4's arcade release.
ELENA OR Sean FTW!!
capcom better announce a demo for marvel 3 because its ridiculous. we can't even play this game unless we chase them down around the country -_- a demo to come out like at the end of december would be great! even if its the same 3 characters, a mirror match with ryu wolverine ironman for both sides i won't mind. just playing the game would be fun
Man I hope they announce rolento and alex as the star new comers
Poison would suck. Get back in the kitchen and make me my sammich!
just a few questions...
1. When was poison a playable character in any SF fighting game? (No I'm not counting the FF fighter for the PS1, that is way different from a normal SF game).
2. Poison would be a REALLY weird character in the game. You would only have few games to go by to get any idea of how she would play. What would she be like in SSF4?
and 3. I'm surprised no one made this joke yet, but when was Poison ever a "she"?
Poison was always a she because she had the underboob and as a result was cut from the home version of Final Fight.
I'm glad Poison isn't going to be her own character, though I wouldn't care if she appeared with Hugo in the same capacity as III. I just don't want a character slot wasted on her when exponentially more fans want other characters. I don't even like Karin, Yun, or Yang that much but they're recognizable and representative of their respective series. Poison was just some goon you beat with a pipe; she wasn't even "a character," there were several of her. The same could be said of Hugo, but he was based on a legendary professional wrestler and later made into more of an individual homage like Fei Long is.
I thought poison was a transexual in the japanese version, and a transvestite in the american version
No Poison was changed to a man in the english version to make marketing people happy about violence to women. The whole tansexual / transvestite was never in the original japanese release she was just a female Mad Gear member. Some crazy people just got on the internet and tried to invent a rationalization for the change in the two versions.
Definitely looking forward to some reveals.
Viewtiful Joe is probably part their next big MVC3 reveal, and R. Mika and Rolento are probably shoe-ins for the SSF4 arcade release, considering what Ono's said in the past.
Though I could be wrong about Mika and Rolento. Truth be told I can't think of any other characters that I couldn't live without, truthfully. Sure, it'd be kind of cool to have other characters to play as and against every now and then, but I'll probably just end up sticking with who I always use.
"new characters will be great too"
You're talking about her???
(no I won't let her down)
@13: Makoto, lesbian?? You kiddin' ???
Ono: "At this moment it doesn't seem likely I'll do it.. but i love mika *WINK WINK SMILEY FACE*
@7 you got my vote for Rolento and Alex. I badly want them in this game also Bridie and Sodom or Hugo xD.
Why do people ask for characters they wont play as... I want this or that person so they can try them out for 10mins and then go back to ryu after they realise they can not be bothered to play a new character..
I want Elena because she was the character that made me actually like the street fighter series.. im not that good with her in 3rd strike because I wasnt in the golden age and not many people play it these days but her fighting style... juggles and resets.. pokes and footsies.. healing ability and wake up game which leave players guessing wether your gonna sweep, overhead, kara throw or bait them...
Hurry up and announce Elena please so I can win EVO plz
Clovr4Lyf, once again you fail.
Poison is a dude...there's nothing neutral about his gender.
and Ono already said long ago that Poison wouldnt be added because it would be too confusing to include her due to gender controversy...
so you can stop with all your conspiracy theories...
Poison's first appearance in Final Fight featured her and a palette swap character named Roxy as recurring minor enemies for the player to fight. Named after the band by an unnamed female employee at Capcom, she was designed by Akira Yasuda to contrast against the bigger characters in the game and move about randomly. According to the book All About Capcom Head to Head Fighting Games, the characters were originally planned to be female, but were changed to male transvestites (or more specifically "newhalfs") due to the suggestion that "hitting women was considered rude" in America and the concern that feminist groups would sue.
What? Capcom's afraid of confusing ppl? Is that why there's such a coherent easy to follow storyline in SF? gimme a break. The violence to women thing is decent cause didn't Nintendo make that one egg shooting enemy in Super Mario 2 into "a boy who thinks he's a girl"? i'm sure theres precedence for attiking chicks in games but what is more believeable is having to cut out cleavage and sexual stuff for the American Super Nintendo version. There were more changes made like Hagger's dialog in the front end cinematic. Poison's original design is female.
i dont know but every one here want 'Sh8tty caracter'.
i mean where's the good caracters?
instead on giving us dudley ibuki and makoto,where is urien? where is karin?where is evil ryu?
im afraid of noobishing the game with caracters unprofessional.
just imagine daigo playing with poison.FADC to ?......a kiss?
a pipe?
theres a lot of interesting caracters.....
if you want r mika buy instead voluptuous magazine...
rolento? a tape with george bush speaking about afghanistan.....
PS: no offense just an opinion.
We Need To See Karin, Relento, Remy, Yang, Yun & Urien
who the f*cks the idiot that wanted poison in? no, seriously, I wanna know....
I give these new characters 2 weeks before every one goes back to Ryu.
I want to know who wants in this Poison put in this game as well, its not about having some gender confused thing in Super Street Fighter 4, i dont want to imagine its special combos let alone supers or ultras ! lol
so they made her a tranny cause hitting womans with a pipe was not ok eh!?
but hiiting fags with a pipe is better ...
lol @ capcom
btw i'd rather have Poison than having Q or Evil ryu
Q is an horrible character i dont know how the fu*k he still have fans
and ryu is for losers.
Poison actually is playable in the Final Fight Revenge fighgting game but I wouldn't be surprised if no one has played it, she used a whip for special moves. Poisoon was also planned for Capcom fighting All Stars untill it was canceled. So she does have a move set Capcom could work with for her character, but thier are many others I'd rather get the chance to use.
Nooooo ! I wanted Poison !
(and Kennji from Warzard btw)
super street fighter 4 needs guard meter.
Poison is tight. Those who keep talking about her gender obviously never played the original release. Its a chick. All this crisis over her gender makes you guys look extra pathetic. You can't fornicate a video game so what's the deal?
Plus Mike Haggar doesn't have any less of an established moveset from Poison but you fanboys will ride Capcom's junk for Mike Haggar and defend his inclusion. *sigh*
I just want to Bad Stone those haters.
Poisen could have been good, who knows how Poisen would have played - but the potential to create an entirely new moves list could have allowed for a totally unique play style in ssf4.
anyways still hoping for Birdie and Sodom!!
i would love to effin see birdie and sodom finaly someone mentioned them. karin,rolento,and charlie would be nice as well. ex characters are prolly a lost cause so what about the rest of the cast from sf1 comming back to life and dont cry about geki being a vega clone how many shotos are in the game? too goddamn may
Poison was a guy dressed as a girl. It was confirmed in Capcom Collections volume 2. Believe me if Poison was actually a girl, there wouldn't be as much interest. Just look on the Capcom boards sometime, there are a lot of promoters for him. I agree though, it's silly to have Poison in this game.
Rolento,Birdie or Sodom would be cool,but I really want Twelve and Oro,for Mvc3 I REALLY want Mega Man X,and Nightcrawler(although i doubt he would make it).
Sad really. Poison would have been a very interesting addition to the roster; SHE could have been someone with a new move set, as opposed to another shoto. That and she would have been very pleasant to look at :(
Yes, Poison is a SHE. If the US wasn't so damn sensitive, Capcom wouldn't have had to lie about it. I think it's been long enough, Capcom needs to drop this controversy and make her officially a SHE.
Also, people need to stop referring to Wikis as if they hold any legitimate credit. We all know that our friends, their friends, and their mothers could click the damn EDIT button on those things and put in whatever they want, I mean, according to Wikipedia, my cousin was the president of Finland for a whopping two weeks, what does that tell you?
Yeah, sure LOL @ me.... yeah i own that on the PS2 btw. Yeah, I still stand by what i'm saying. The only reason they ever claimed she was a tranny is to save themselves from feminist groups and such. Was she ever intended to be called one? I don't think so >_>
yeah... LOL @ me. Ur so smart. Yep. Soooo smart.
Do YOU honestly think she was ever intended to be a tranny? Times have changed. if Chun-Li can get punched in the face, I don't see why Poison can't ^_^ Oh and keep on talking. I'm curious to see what you have to say. (Oh great, another pointless argument)
@ Bison: Oh, and Capcom changes their mind about "Official" things all the freaking time, one example being Gouken's death. he's dead in one game, and alive in another, and lets not get started with the rest of the loopholes and inconsistencies in the Street Fighter storyline.
I agree with #51, Why would you waste a character slot for an evil ryu? evil ryu is great in capcom vs snk but make the same character with slight differences like a raging demon and a red metsu Hadoken is just mudane. Personally and I think a lot of people will agree with me is Rolento and Sodom have very unique play styles and will be quite interesting in super if they put them in. P.s no one talks about Remy. Remy is so much better then guile and would make more sense put in super then charlie.
i strongly disagree. guile is in all aspects way better than remy. and id trade this guy
for remy any day.
evil ryu not interesting because of the limited slot.
who cares about slots.its true there are a lot of caracters interesting but i think that they should make all third strike caracters selectables or instance just imagine ;
-Urien charge buffering and partitionning and the god RX.
-twelve pretty darn cool caracter.
-alex he should have been since SF4.
-Oro the funniest caracter in the game .
-Q just the idea that Kuroda will use him is enough to put him in SSF.
-Elena feminin touch is needed.
-Remy beside pierre who want him in the game.
-Necro IYo will surely pick him and invent some sick combos.
-Hugo an alternative to the red cyclone.
-yun/yang interesting even if rufus replaced their play style.
-Sean god no please dont make him playable.the most brocken caracter of the game.the same if you put george bush as selctable pokemon in SSBB
hi, on facebook, i opened up a Capcom vs. SNK 3 support, go to this url
there's also a Big C.V.S 3 Petition Support Event happening tomorrow until November, but i plan to get 10,000 supporters by New Years. So plz support this.
Are you done? I just wanted you to stop talking. Notice the sarcasm in post #70. You seem like the type that likes trolling. If you're going to keep rambling, at least stay on topic.
With that aside >_>
As someone had suggested a good while back, I thought maybe it would have been interesting to see a new moveset on an old character. Poison, being the perfect candidate would be a great addition.
Adding more of a variety in terms of appearance as well.
Something about using Ryu's body + Ken's head + etc. can also get pretty boring to see.
@abdelmajidtolba. Sean a broken character, you're joking right? Urien is the broken character and all people do with him is that stupid mirror reflect, just so it can get behind you and you can't block or parry it. so you're getting smash by both sides.
Elena is long overdue for this game. Just give us what we want, capcom!
@79 "The instruction manual for the American and European versions of Street Fighter II for the SNES identified Ryu and Ken's master under the name of Sheng Long, a name derived from a mistranslation of Ryu's victory phrase in the arcade version of the game ("You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance"), which was also basis of the hoax character of the same name. In fact, Sheng Long is the Mandarin pronunciation of the first two kanji characters in Shōryūken (昇龍拳?), the Japanese name of the Dragon Punch, one of Ryu and Ken's special techniques. Shōryūken, or shēng lóng quán in Mandarin, means "Rising Dragon Fist"."
Believe me or not but poison reminds of Nikki Monaj. fake tits butt implants lol
@ Shep131: I find it funny that one of Gouken's titles hints at the fact that he is also known as Shen Long. Talk about a crapload of double-meanings lol.
@ xShonuffx: Hugo would look pretty cool fighting against THawk, but OMG can you imagine Hugo's hitbox? ^_^ I wonder how much health they would give him. A hundred more than THawk maybe?
Lets hope the rumors are true: Six more characters! Still... I hope Poison makes it in. Maybe alongside Hugo? What if they pulled a fast one and threw in Belger?
Final Fight is not represented enough in Super 4. I'm hoping they throw SOMEONE from that series in (El Gado? Rolento? Sodom?). Heck, I'd even settle for another Rival School character.
@ Wardog just by you sayin that about sean like most ppl means all you know of sean is his 3rd strike version .... in second impact he was almost if not broken he was a beast in that game ..... Sean for SSF4 DLC!!!!

FOUR years after briefly stopping off in Ghana on his way home from a Group of Eight (G-8) summit, US President Barack Obama lands in Dakar on Wednesday night at the start of his first extended visit in his current designation, to the continent of his Kenyan father's birth. But he is expected to give Kenya a miss, as its president is under indictment from the International Criminal Court.
Barring any untoward event, he will spend Saturday in Johannesburg, Sunday in Cape Town, and then head to Dar es Salaam, his third and final stop, first thing on Monday.
In the US, at least, the trip has been in the news chiefly thanks to leaks about the lengths to which the US Secret Service is going to ensure the First Family's safety. There is predictable harrumphing from Tea Party types about the cost ($60m-$100m, the Washington Post estimates) at a time when budget cuts have forced the White House to suspend public tours.
The flap has been useful. It has obliged the White House to sharpen its talking points on the trip's rationale from a cost-benefit perspective. In a vigorous response to journalists last week Friday, deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes put it this way:
"Several of the fastest-growing economies are in Africa, and if Africa does take off economically you're going to have a rapidly growing middle class and market for US goods ... and what we hear from our businesses is that they want to get in the game.
"There are other countries getting in the game — China, Brazil, Turkey — and if the US is not leading in Africa, we're going to fall behind in a very important region…. It would not be in our interest to pull back at precisely the time when we see other nations stepping into Africa and increasing their own investments," Mr Rhodes said.
"This is a very important signal for the president to send — that we take this region very seriously, that we have significant interests here, and that we see this as fundamental to maintaining our leadership in the 21st century."
If Mr Obama's trip is about showing determination to compete in Africa, it is also about differentiating America's brand of engagement from that of competitors such as China.
"China has pursued a range of economic interests that have led to a significant investment in Africa," Mr Rhodes said. In contrast, the US's focus is "on support for African democratic institutions, for the models of economic growth that will be broad-based and will bring opportunities to more people."
The Obama administration sees itself as working to "unleash economic growth", in Mr Rhodes's phrase, by helping to create conditions and build capacities that attract private capital and make it possible for African governments to mobilise domestic resources to tackle poverty and scourges such as HIV/AIDS.
In Senegal, Mr Obama will give a speech to regional legal professionals about the rule of law and will take part in a forum on improving African food security. In South Africa, he will discuss regional security separately with President Jacob Zuma and African Union Commission chairwoman Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma.
He will hold a town meeting at the University of Johannesburg with young African leaders who, in the words of senior director for African affairs on the National Security Council Grant Harris, "are already shaping the political, social and economic realities on the continent and (are) key to the long-term growth and prosperity of the region".
In Tanzania, he will meet business leaders, both African and American, and visit the Ubongo gas-fired power plant.
The centrepiece of the trip will be the speech he is due to deliver on Sunday at the University of Cape Town, where Robert Kennedy gave his famous "ripples of hope" address in 1966.
Look for Mr Obama to tie Africa's progress to the inspiration of former president Nelson Mandela, whose Robben Island jail, along with Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, he will have visited earlier in the day.
His message, Mr Rhodes said, will be that in order for Mr Mandela's legacy to endure, "there need to be strong democratic institutions. It's not enough to have elections, it's not enough to have democratically elected leaders; you need to have independent judiciaries, you need to have confidence in the law, you need to have efforts to combat corruption."

Today, the jury had the opportunity to ask Jodi Arias direct questions, and they had many. Over 100 questions. I found these 50 to be the most interesting. These are not verbatim but practically speaking they reflect what the jurors asked.
- Why did you put the camera in the dryer?
- Please explain the events that led up to your dad slapping you twice?
- What is your relationship like with your mother today?
- What is your relationship like with your father today?
- You mentioned buying a 9 mm gun for a camping trip, who was going on the camping trip?
- Why did you planning on going [on the camping trip] if you are scared?
- Were you paid for the 48 Hours interview?
- Were you paid for the interview with Inside Edition?
- During your testimony, you told us that Travis hit your car once. Can you tell us about that incident?
- Why did you confront Travis after seeing him with another girl if it was not due to jealousy?
- Why would you continue to stay with someone who had sex with you while you were sleeping?
- Why did you place Travis's body back in the shower?
- What happened to the clothes that you are wearing the day of the murder?
- You said that Travis attacked you earlier. Why was June 4, 2008 so different?
- Were you upset that Travis was taking another woman to Cancun?
- Why did you send his grandmother flowers [after your murdered him]?
- Why did you take the rope and gun with you?
- Did you try to clean up the scene before you left on June 4, 2008?
- If you shot Travis first, how did the casing land on blood?
- After you shot Travis, why not run out of the house to get away?
- Why didn't you call 911?
- If Travis attacked you June 4th, why not tell the police the truth from the start?
- Why is it that you have no memory of stabbing Travis?
- Whether you had plans to commit suicide or not, why mention that "no jury would ever convict you, mark my words, I am innocent?"
- Do you have any pictures of you wearing a finger splint? Did anyone see you wearing a finger splint?
- When did you realize you had memory loss? What was the date?
- Why were you willing to get involved with two men at the same time?
- What is your understanding of the word "skank?"
- Why did you share housing with Matt, when you are in a relationship with Travis?
- How can you be a sister to Matt, someone you had sex with in the past?
- Why did you question Travis about everything he did?
- Why did you start a relationship with Ryan Burns when you said earlier that when you in a relationship you don't date other guys?
- Why would you take the time to delete the photos on the camera after you killed Travis?
- How is it that you are so calm on the television interviews?
- If you really believed that Travis's family deserved to know the truth, why didn't you confess?
- If you didn't want to be tied to a tree, why did you go and look for a place to do this?
- Why would you continue to carry your journals around with you if you thought that others, such as Travis, could read them?
- Why are the laws of attraction so important but the law of chastity was not?
- Do the laws of attraction also apply to recording phone sex conversations?
- You said that Travis torn out pages in your journal about him that were negative but you also said that you didn't write negative things about Travis in your journal. Which is correct?
- If he [Travis] was so important why didn't you call 911?
- You said that you were sick to your stomach when you saw Travis with child pictures, so why did you sleep with him again?
- What stopped you from committing suicide?
- Would you classify your relationship with Travis Alexander as a "love/ hate" relationship?
- Do you feel that the Mormon religion encourages burying the truth about issues that may be considered embarrassing?
- How do you determine when you will tell the truth and when you will not tell the truth? What are the determining factors?
- Did you ever see a doctor or take medication for your memory issues?
- Did you ever seek medical help for your mental condition? What about prior to the killing?
- Is there anyone who saw you shaking during a fight with Travis?
- Do any of your journal entries or anything else discuss your shaking or blackout issues?
Analysis and Commentary
No one can predict the future but it seems from these jury questions that they are having a difficult time believing her story. Some have commented that these questions were better than the prosecutor's questions. Perhaps it is true.
Based on jury's questions, several observations can be drawn: they seem to believe that she has a problem with the truth; they think that she has a mental illness; they're perplexed about the fact that she did not receive help for her admitted memory and potential mental health problems; and they seem to have difficulty understanding why she would continue the relationship with Travis if he was so violent and if he was interested in children.
It's very interesting that they believe she has a mental health condition. Jodi made it a point to say in response that she disputes the fact that she has a mental condition. This is a topic I will be covering in-depth in the near future. In the meantime, you can read my thoughts about her mental condition here.
The jury also picked up on inconsistencies that were perhaps overlooked until this point. For example, Jodi testified that Travis allegedly tore pages out of her journal that contained negative information about him yet she also said that she never wrote anything negative about him in her journal. This is an important point that members of the jury have noted. As we know, there is no corroborating evidence that Travis ever abused Jodi. Jodi's explanation for the lack of evidence, and specifically for the lack of anything written about abuse in her journal, was that she never wanted to produce negative documentation about Travis.
It's not possible to have both written negative things about Travis in her journal, which is the reason why she says he tore out those pages, and to never have written anything negative about him.
It simply makes no sense.
What other inconsistencies did you hear?
I'm sure there are many. There's a great deal of information to process. In the upcoming days, I imagine that the prosecutor will be pointing out all of the many inconsistencies in her story.

We are (that is Vermont) supposed to have around 6,000, not that I have seen one up in Enosburg where I hunt. No idea how many PA has.
Also I have heard of people getting any where in between 150 to close to 500 pounders.
Here is some records to look through http://vermontbiggametrophyclub.com/bear_records
Hope that helps some.

I would say Vermont or Maine. There are more PA bear hunters than there are bear. Firehouse buddy was up at his cabin last year with 15 hunters, spent all bear seaso in the woods. They only saw a 100 lb cub.
November 4, 2012, 09:10 PM
Don't discount NY, NY state has a healthy black bear population. You can hunt the adirondacks up north or even the catskills in the south, depending what you are closer to. Ny bear season in the north is about a month and a half not counting the early season, so lots of flexibility depending what your schedule is. I think similar rules as PA and Vermont, as in no baiting. Last I remember the PA bear season is really short. Maine has the largest black bear population in the northeast, and baiting is allowed so it is a little easier.

Here are some of my favorites this Friday!
Gap Legging Jeans // I love stretchy pants. Yoga pants? Leggings? Count me in! I like that these jeans from Gap are stretchy and comfy like leggings, but don't look like leggings. I have a pair in olive green, but they come in several rinses.
ULTA Nourishing Minerals Lip Gloss in Pink Topaz // I got this lip gloss in my recent ULTA haul, and I'm obsessed! The color is a gorgeous "your lips but better" shade. The gloss is very moisturizing and not too sticky. I love it!
Dunkin Donuts Iced Coffee // I usually make my iced coffee at home, but I love splurging on some from Dunkin Donuts. One just opened a few months ago on campus, and it's been fantastic for getting through long days. I get a medium iced coffee with 2% milk and Splenda. I only wish they had stevia as a sweetener option!
Kate Spade Lacey Wallet // I love my Lilly Pulitzer sorority print wristlet, but since I'm a recruitment counselor this year, I need to stop wearing all of my sorority merch until January (to stay unbiased for the women I'm helping through recruitment). This wallet is so cute and professional... it will make giving up my sorority wristlet just a little bet easier.
Enamel Jewelry // I've been into enamel jewelry lately, especially when it's white and gold. It goes with everything! My favorite places to buy jewelry are Charming Charlie and Francesca's.

Bicycle-Powered Water Pumps and Filtration Systems
Note: this article is part of this week's EcoWorldly cycling series: Cycling and its importance in countries around the world.
As a writer on global writer issues, I wasn't quite sure what to do when my writing colleagues at EcoWorldly suggested that we all contribute to a series on bicycling.
Bikes and water: could the two really be related? To my pleasant surprise, they are indeed!
I learned about several organizations dedicated to providing people in developing nations with the means to get clean water through the use of bicycles.
Bicycle-Powered Water Pumps
One group from the Engineering for Developing Communities (EDC) program at the University of Colorado at Boulder developed a prototype of a human powered bicycle for pumping water in communities where electricity is unavailable. Their model was able to pump at a maximum of 18 feet below ground, at 2.5 gallons per minute. The specifics of their project is detailed here.
Another great organization I found online is the Working Bikes Cooperative, a Chicago-based nonprofit that takes old bikes and repairs them to donate to charities in Chicago, the Gulf Coast, Cuba, Guatemala, Ecuador, and other places of need. The primary purpose of the donated bikes are to provide affordable and healthy transportation to people from underdeveloped nations, but other bicycles are used to create water filtration systems in communities plagued with unsanitary water.
I also found a company called McEdwards Manufacturing and Distribution, Inc. that sells a "Third World Water Pump" setup, which supposedly can pump clean water from wells with depths of 200 feet or more.
And here's a quite informative and inspiring video on a pedal-powered water transportation and filtration vehicle created by a San Bruno, California team which won Google's "Innovate or Die Pedal-Powered Machine Challenge" this year:
Aquaduct: Mobile Filtration Vehicle YouTube Clip (1:59 min)
The neat-looking bike filters the water as you bike from point A to point B.
What a concept! I'd love to get my hands, and legs, on one of those!

village lies at 1870 meters on the Jatganga stream in an attractive
narrow valley, forested with deodars, 34 km by road from Almora, and 386
km from Delhi. Believed to be the abode of 12 jyotirlingas, it has 124
temples and many statues dating to the 11th century AD, finely crafted.
A 3 km climb to Vridha jageshwar on the high ridge above provides a
panoramic vew of the snow peaks surrounding Nanda Devi, the presiding
deity of Kumaon and Garhwal. A dozen Khukrne wood craftsmen retain the
traditional local skill used for the ornate Jaegshwari dwellling
facades. The community's dwelling idiom consists of single or double
storeyed homes, mud plastered with slate-tiled sloping roofs, carved
wooden windows and doorways. Nearby foci include a 10 km trek to
Shokiathal and Mritola Ashram, which also enlists overseas disciples.
Prominent fairs are held during Shivaratri and Saavan, when visitor
inflow peaks. The region abutts the buffer zone of the Binsar Reserve
Forest and adjoining tracts, characterised by a diverse, though fragile
Himalayan environment
Places to See.The key attraction
around Jageshwar is the
historic Jageshwar Dham temple complex, that dates back to the 11th
century AD. The important temples are the Jagnath temple, Mahamritunjaya
temple, Nav Durga temple, Pushti Devi temple, Shri Kedarnath temple,
Kuber temple, Dandeshwar temple, Vriddh Jageshwar, Koteshwar, Jhankar
Saim temple etc. Mirtola Ashram, a center of spiritual and natural
beauty, attracts many disciples. The Ashram is constructed around a
Shiva Temple with the name Uttar Vrindavan. The other attractions are
Brahma kund, Airawat cave, King Deep Chandra's statue, the scenic deodar
forest with its ancient trees such as the Panch Pandava tree, comprising
five tall deodar trees coalescing at the trunk!Jageshwar offers a rich
kaleidoscope of breathtaking views of nature and its bounty, from
splendid views of beautiful mountain ranges from an altitude of over
7000 ft; to natural forests with bio-diversity; birds' sanctuary;
various herbs and medicinal plants growing naturally. The atmosphere of
this region is peaceful and free from air, water and sound pollution.
The winds coming across the Chir Pine and Deodar forests are soothing
and healthy. The villages around are natural meditation centers and
provide restful holidays.
Art & Craft The folk art can be
seen in ornamentation on the wooden on the doors, windows and facades of
the traditional homes. The folk art of aipan and jyoti patta is made on
religious festivals and celebrations by women on the entrances of the
houses and the courtyards. Traditionally the houses have been built with
the locally available material - clay, stones and wood, whose
construction is cost effective. The roof are made of stone and slate and
slope down. The special feature of these houses is that they are cool in
the summers and warm in the winters. These houses do not get damp and
are always comfortable
Fairs and festivals: The people of these villages have a tremendous
sense of festivity. Most of the festivals are related to the
agricultural activities.The festival of Harela heralds the sowing of the
crop, Huraki is the plantation and harrowing festival. Music and dance
is an integral part of people's life. After the daylong hard labour in
the fields, to maintain liveliness and for recreation, men and women of
the villages organize community dances - Jhoda, Chanchari, Rituraina,
Bhagnol etc. - on various occasions. These dances are also organized on
the occasion of family and social celebrations - birth, marriage, fairs
etc. Cuisine: Due to traditional and natural farming methods, the
grains, vegetables, fruits and herbs are of high quality in terms of
nutrition values and taste. Special items of traditionally prepared
local foods are dubka made of gahat (kulthi) and black soyabean,
jholi-bhat, kapa(green vegetables), pua etc. Herbal medicine:
Traditionally the villages have developed their own herbal medicines.
They have their own preventive and curative systems based on local herbs
and food restrictions, with modern allopathic doctors and the
traditional doctors (vaidyas) and soothsayers still actively providing
their services to the villagers.

text: I always pay careful attention to the letters submitted by Ira Temple of the Mansfield Tea Party. I can identify with some of her frustration with the government and business. These conservatives keep saying that President Obama is abusing the Constitution. It's a mirror image of how the liberals accused President Bush of violating the Constitution with the Patriot Act.
