The family of Tom Maynard has released a statement describing the death of the England prospect as "devastating".
Maynard, 23, died on Monday at around 5am after being hit by a London Underground train at Wimbledon Park. It is thought that the Surrey batsman, son of former England cricketer Matthew, may have been trying to avoid police at the time of his death.
"The Maynard family would like to thank everyone for the many messages of support following Tom's tragic death in London yesterday morning," read the statement issued through the British Transport Police.
"As you can appreciate, the news has come as a devastating blow and although the family is grateful for all the kind messages of sympathy, we would ask that we can be left to grieve in private at this very difficult and sad time for us."
Glamorgan's Friends Life t20 match against the Worcestershire Royals on Wednesday has been postponed as a mark of respect for Maynard and his family.
Surrey's FriendsLife t20 game against the Hampshire Royals on Tuesday had already been postponed.
The county's pace bowler Jade Dernbach, who has been withdrawn from the remainder of England's one day international series against the West Indies on compassionate grounds, used Twitter to express his grief over the death of his friend.
"The day is not as bright without you here with us. Will love you always and forever brother.#RIPTom," he tweeted.
England one-day captain Alastair Cook spoke before the start of the second NatWest Series match against the West Indies of the impact Maynard's death has had on the squad.
"It's been an incredibly sad 24 hours. It's hit all of us in this team quite hard," Cook told Sky Sports. "All our thoughts and prayers are obviously with the Maynard family at this difficult time."

Tiny Tim, the Fat Cat, Didn't Realize He was on a DietAmy Fleck
So, first off, Tiny Tim is a mean name for a fat cat. Why would you mock the portly? Secondly, are you kidding me?! When you read the Huff Post Weird News report and watch the video, they make it seem like the cat was participating in the diet plan but fell off the wagon.
Tiny Tim was abandoned by his owners last year, right before Christmas. At that time he weighted 36 pounds (he should weight 12-14 lbs). Since then he has been cared for at Southside Place Animal Hospital, in Texas. Tiny got down to 28.6 pounds, but plateaued despite his restricted-calorie diet. Doctors were stumped.
Before I tell you how the mystery was solved, let me just say poor Tiny Tim was being kept in a food pantry. Yes, a cat who was on a diet was kept in a small room, surrounded by food. That is so not right. I bet you are now starting to figure out what happened. Yes, that is correct, Tiny chewed a hole through a bag of food and was enjoying night time snacks. I am sure Tim didn't know he wasn't supposed to.
Never worry, in addition to Tiny's 50-foot walks every day, the staff has moved the food to higher shelves, so Tiny Tim can't reach. Again, that seem mean to me. How about move Tiny Tim to a different room away from temptation? Of course the motivation to be able to jump up high enough to reach the food may be all Tiny needs.
You can read more about Tiny Tim, and keep track of his progress Southside Place Animal Hospital's website.

A library in Lehigh County is facing a funding crisis.
The annual allowance the Coplay Library gets from the Whitehall-Coplay School District has been eliminated from the current version of the district's budget, which must be finalized by June 30, said Natalie Reichl.
The library is asking voters to support a referendum on the May ballot that, if approved, would allow for a dedicated tax to keep the library open.
Regardless of the referendum, the library will continue to receive funding from the borough and the state.

Veggies veggies and more veggies. Let's see if I can find my wound healing ramblings.
No topical E
and my info:
take a single 100,000 IU vitamin A (not beta carotene, just a single dose of 100,000 IU vitamin A - it's been shown to improve wound healing speed.
take about 80-100 mg zinc daily in divided doses for 5 or so days. (click in my sig line on 'writings' then look for 'my supplements' or 'supplements' - it has specific links)
take proteolytic enzymes.....really any broad spectrum veg based enzyme or bromelain *on an empty stomach* will work. I like Garden of Life Ozyme - sometimes you'll see it written Ω-zyme. Take 2 of them, 4x per day on an empty stomach - 30 min before eating and 2h after eating. if using ozyme, 2 pills. if using bromelain then it needs to be the 2,000 GDU strength, 2 500 mg caps/tabs. The protein digesting enzymes, when taken on an empty stomach will cross the gut wall, enter the blood stream and will digest inflammatory proteins when they are encountered (mostly at the site of the injury). This will reduce inflammation, speed healing. Faster healing means less scarring.
1)a lot of dietary antioxidants - eating fresh fruits and veggies at every meal and snack. shoot for 9-13 servings of non-starchy fruits/veggies per day. darker and brighter is always better (ie berries, cherries, mango....kale, broccoli, dark lettuces etc)
2)sufficient protein...protein plays a significant role in tissue integrity
3)a great basic, iron free multi (natrol my favorite muliple "Take One" iron free is great and cheap)
4)essential fatty acids - a few grams of fish oil per day and a gram or so of borage oil.

Android Apps For VoIP Calling From Skype Launched – Fring Updated
Skype; the world's biggest VoIP telephony service has finally launched their highly anticipated app for the Android platform. With this new launch, Skype users shall be able to make free VoIP calls to other Skype users as well as text message for free over their Android handsets. The app is compatible over Android OS 2.1 or later and is available in all Android marketplaces except those in Japan and China. The app works over both 3G and Wi-Fi except in USA where it is Wi-Fi only.
The competition in the mobile VoIP calling space is evident considering that Fring too has announced an update to their app close on the heels of the Skype app launch. The latest update brings users the ability to call phone numbers over VoIP with the FringOut service. FringOut is available for as low as 1 cent per minute inside USA and is already available on the Symbian platform.
Fring has announced that a similar feature will be provided on the iPhone platform too shortly.
New FringOut Offers Cheap VoIP Calling Alternative To SkypeOut
Fring, the popular P2P mobile VoIP client has launched a new service called FringOut that, quite evidently, takes on the SkypeOut landline/mobile calling feature offered by Skype. The FringOut service was launched yesterday and brings extremely cheap voice-calling to mobile phones. According to the company's media statement, VoIP calls over FringOut have a starting price of 1 cent per minute.
FringOut is presently available only on the Nokia S60 platform. However, the company is expected to be bringing the service to the iOS and Android platforms too very soon. With an already burgeoning user base and attractive pricing, FringOut can prove to be a real alternative to SkypeOut. However, one does need to be sure about the voice quality. If Fring can manage to equal Skype, or better them for that matter, expect the popularity of the new service to spike up in the days to come.
Skype VoIP Over 3G Not To Come On iPhone?
Last week, Verizon signed a bizarre deal with Skype. According to the terms of the deal, Verizon will embed Skype's click to call application by default on all Verizon powered smartphones. The company said this will give its users the ability to quickly make calls to anywhere in the world using Skype.
Why is this bizarre? Because there is apparently no take away whatsoever for Verizon. Not only is Skype able to reach out to Verizon's subscribers in a quick and easy way, but also the VoIP solution to call international numbers would mean loss of lucrative dollars to Verizon.
More insights about the deal are now coming to light. According to a report on GigaOm, the deal between Verizon and Skype could be exclusive in nature. This would forbid the VoIP service from making their 3G based calling solution available to rival networks, including AT&T which is the operator for iPhone. It is believed as an aggressive approach that Verizon has employed to deprive iPhone customers of a much in-demand service that could motivate them to move to rival platforms and potentially become Verizon customers.
I do believe that Verizon's strategy appears far-fetched. While Skype is no doubt the most popular VoIP service, it is by no means the only one. Competitor services like Fring are already available over 3G and this means users will more interested in trying out these alternative VoIP over 3G services.

Made clear in his famous quote from Understanding Media, McLuhan was fond of framing artists as harbingers of cultural change. Using this metaphor to contextualize their work, artists throughout Toronto and around the world have come together to co-create a week of stimulating art, music, poetry and discourse that considers and probes the future of digital media and its impact on our culture and the way we live our lives.

JACKSON, MI – After going 5-under through two rounds to make the cut at the Deutsche Bank Championship, Brian Stuard settled for par during his third-round performance.
Stuard carded an even-par 71 in the opening round followed by a brilliant 5-under 66 in the second round. However, the Jackson native was unable to capitalize on his third round, finishing with even par. Stuard's three-day total of 5-under 208 leaves him in 56th place.
Stuard opened his third round with six straight pars before carding a birdie on the lengthy 600-yard, par-5 seventh. A 286-yard tee shot followed by a 254-yard shot left 53 yards to the hole. Stuard went up and down from there to collect his first birdie.
He followed with four consecutive pars, but collected bogeys on Nos. 12 and 16. Stuard managed to get back to even par with a birdie on the 530-yard, par-5 18th. Stuard started the hole with a 292-yard tee shot and followed with a 242-yard shot to within nine yards of the hole. A short chip shot left four feet to the hole, where Stuard rolled it in for the birdie.
Heading into the final round as the leader is Sergio Garcia at 19-under par while Henrick Stenson sit two strokes back.
Stuard will tee off at 8:50 a.m. Monday on the back nine and will be joined by Nick Watney and Brian Gay. The Golf Channel will air coverage from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday while NBC will air coverage from 1-6 p.m.

eBay has been a longtime pick of Motley Fool superinvestor David Gardner, and has helped his Stock Advisor portfolio achieve gains of more than 120% since 2002. David specializes in identifying game-changing companies like this long before others are keen to their disruptive potential, and he helps like-minded investors profit while Wall Street catches up. I invite you to learn more about how he picks his winners with a free, personal tour of his flagship service: Supernova. Inside, you'll discover the science behind his market-trouncing returns. Just click here now for instant access.
Eric Bleeker: I'm Eric Bleeker. I'm joined here with Austin Smith, and we are running down some picks from co-founder David Gardner. I guess you could call him a superinvestor when you look at the track record, beating the market by almost 100% with his Stock Advisor picks over the past decade.
One of those picks is eBay, which goes all the way back to 2002. It's a much different company than in 2002. It's been quite a run, but let's look at the other side, the bear side. What are three reasons right now that you'd look at selling eBay?
Austin Smith: Full disclosure, Eric, I am an eBay shareholder, but I believe that this is just kind a valuable exercise that everybody should go through. You have to look at both sides of the investing coin here.
When it comes down to eBay, some of the things I'm looking at ... they put a big bullseye on Amazon in a way that kind of scares me. They've shifted their marketplace segment to a fixed auction format, which is much closer to the Amazon model.
Amazon's not a company you want to agitate. Previously, eBay occupied with their marketplace this niche that Amazon was unlikely to touch, but now -- when you go to this fixed auction format, you start doing same-day shipping, you start making partnerships with Best Buy and Radio Shack -- you're moving heavy into Amazon's camp, and Jeff Bezos is not a guy I want to go to war with.
The second reason to sell, their other growth engine, the mobile payments space, is heating up in a serious way.
You've got serious competition from Square, even Intuit is going to have their own swipe feature that's going to sync up with all their QuickBooks products. You've got Google getting in on the game, you've got the Merchant Exchange Network, which is a consortium of big retailers like Wal-Mart that are having their own mobile payments offerings.
There's high growth in this space, and eBay, with their PayPal division, no doubt one of the first companies to get into it in a big way and really profit from it, but that's attracted a lot of competition from, frankly, companies with deeper pockets than eBay.
Eric: Yeah. I think that's what you have to look at. You mentioned Amazon. The marketplace idea is not quite as attractive, from a high level. You don't hear people talk about getting "eBay Prime" or something. But it is the PayPal thesis that's really brought them along.
Here's the deal. eBay right now -- I'm looking at it at this moment -- a P/E of 17.9. Well, we can look at an Apple, down below 12 in the technology space. You look at some of the other deals around, a lot of technology companies are trading very cheaply.
You even look at a Microsoft or an Intel, in that adjusted around 10 P/E ratio. Why should investors go for eBay, at 18X? I think that, in and of itself, is a reason to sell, just because the valuation is a little higher.
Austin: Yeah, there's an opportunity cost with every investment you make, and if eBay is a little more expensive and their growth is a little slower than other big, more established tech companies, why not take the safer, cheaper bet that also has higher growth?
Eric: Yeah. To their credit, they have kept the growth up, but if that PayPal engine were to flare out for any reason, look out below.

Within a single item of the Real World Value Mapping Sequence, either
the linear parameters or a LUT may be present but not both in
the same item.
However, one could construct a single instance that replicated the
same (or an overlapping) list of images that had more than one item
in Referenced Image Real World Value Mapping Sequence and overlapping
pixel value ranges that were mapped, and hence more than one alternative
In such cases neither takes "priority" per se; these would be mappings
to different "units".
For example, the same pixel data values in PET could be mapped
"simultaneously" to counts, activity concentration (MBq/ml) and
different forms of SUV (SUVbw in g/l, SUVlbm and SUVbsa) to give
an extreme example.

Shang, now 10, has Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a form of muscular dystrophy that requires her to use a wheelchair or walker to get around as she lives with the incurable genetic disease that damages nerves and causes debilitating muscle weakness and numbness.
As with many girls around the world, Shang loves to read about the adventures of the American Girl dolls, such as Saige, the artist and horseback rider, and McKenna, the gymnast. Many of Shang's favorite stories feature the dolls overcoming their own obstacles, such as bullying or dyslexia or historical struggles with slavery, child labor, the Great Depression or life as a pioneer. But so far, none of the stories have shown a girl with a disability.
Now, Shang is challenging American Girl to change that. She has just launched a petition on Change.org called "American Girl: Release an American Girl with a disability."
In the petition, Shang says, "Being a disabled girl is hard. Muscular Dystrophy prevents me from activities like running and ice-skating, and all the stuff that other girls take for granted. For once, I don't want to be invisible or a side character that the main American Girl has to help: I want other girls to know what it's like to be me, through a disabled American Girl's story."
People from across the country have signed the petition and many of their comments serve as a reminder for the need for such a doll. One reads, "Every little girl deserves to feel special!"
Another says, "My daughter has cerebral palsy. She is now 20 but I have always looked for toys that represented her. Even Barbie has a friend in a wheelchair. I was also able to find a Build a Bear wheel chair for her special bear. I would love to add an American Girl to Miranda's collection and for many girl's out there with disabilities to have one to represent the awesome girl's with disabilities!"
Shang's sister added, "Disabled girls deserve to be heard! For my sister's strength, passion, and dedication to American Girl – let the stories of disabled girls be told!"
American Girl has already made strides in representing diversity in their doll collection. Last year the company introduced a line of "Special Sparkle" accessories that included a hearing aid and guide dog. They also created a bald doll to represent girls dealing with hair loss. Shang thinks the company could do more, though.
At the time this article was published, Shang's petition had more than 11,000 supporters.

At the first sign of a meningitis outbreak last week, the Tennessee Department of Health sprang into action. It set up emergency operation centers across the state, where officials could collaborate on their response, and set up a toll-free phone line that residents can call with suspected cases.
"In a public health emergency, the state health department is usually a lot of the boots on the ground," said Jim Blumenstock, chief program officer for public health practice for the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials. "State and local health departments are reaching out and literally touching, by voice contact or sending visiting nurses, thousands.
Come next year, Tennessee is slated to have fewer funds for emergency responses to public health outbreaks like this. The Center for Disease Control is among the federal agency that faces budget cuts under the sequestration that Congress passed last year. It provides about half of all funding for local and state public health work.
If the sequester cuts take effect, Blumenstock's colleagues at the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials estimate that state public health budgets could see their federal funding cut between 8 percent and 11 percent.
Federal funds can make up more than half of a state public health department's budget.
"Approximately 60 percent of our agency's revenue is derived from federal funding," said Terry Cline, commissioner of the Oklahoma State Department of Health. "Across-the-board reductions in federal public health programs could cripple or eliminate necessary public health functions in Oklahoma."
Public health departments have already seen budgets shrink in recent years, as states cut back during the recession. Across the country, local and state health departments have shed 52,200 jobs since 2009.
Federal grants to the state for emergency preparedness also have declined by 19 percent over the past decade, from $940 million in 2002 to $758 last year.
The worry, among public health groups, is what happens if federal cuts get layered on top of local scale backs.
"We've seen state public health workforce numbers going down due to the regular budget cuts," said Amanda Jezek, government relations director for the Infectious Diseases Society of America. "Fiscal year 2011 was a difficult year. We look at sequestration across the board, and it's not as though the agency can put one cut here and another cut there. Everything gets cut, from the ability to do surveillance to respond."
Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) put out a report this summer, on behalf of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, detailing the impact of the cuts on public health programs. He estimated that public health emergency preparedness grants - used by states to respond to 7,845 public health emergencies since 2005 - would lose $48 million in funding. In 2012, those programs were funded at $619 million.
The program that certifies and inspects health and longterm care facilities would lose $26 million.
Public health departments do much of the work in responding to public health emergencies, such as the current meningitis outbreak. Blumenstock says it would be typical, in a situation like this, for public health workers to go clinic to clinic to make sure doctors were purging the troublesome medication.
"They're the ones in the field, making sure that the recall is actually happening," he said.
The possibility of a shortfall in funding for dealing with public health emergencies isn't exactly a new one for state governments. Many found themselves in a similar situation in 2009, just as states were beginning to cut back funds.
Shortly afterwards, the H1N1 pandemic hit.
Health and Human Services does have a Public Health Emergency Fund - meant for use in situations just like this one - but, as Congressional Research Service analyst Sarah Lister notes, it has been left empty for years.
"Massachusetts was one of the early states effected in the Northeast," recalls Paul Jarris, executive director of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials. "They were about to send staff home without pay. They just didn't have the money."
Congress ultimately approved an emergency appropriation of $2 billion to fight the H1N1 flu and produce more vaccinations against it.
Jarris also points to the West Nile Virus, which has seen public health resources shrink - even though it just had its most deadly summer.
"That tends to be the history of public health," he says. "When it's out of sight, it's out of mind. If we remove the capacity of public health to inspect facilities, there's no doubt in my mind that people will suffer."

Album cover video:
"Some Weird Sin" is something of a paean to being an outsider. While it wasn't a single or a hit, it did have a certain amount of influence, especially among the '77 punk rock scene according to AllMusic's Dave Thompson.
When I listen to it, it suffers a bit because I am already hearing the next track from Lust for Life – "The Passenger" – in my head and am thinking of skipping ahead. Good song, though, and reminiscent of some of Bowie's work on Heroes. I hear echos of it in "Joe The Lion," but that could just be my brain forcing one song on top of another.

Justice Rehnquist and the Dismantling of Environmental Law
James May
Widener University Delaware Law School
Robert L. Glicksman
George Washington University - Law School
August 1, 2006
Environmental Law Reporter, Vol. 36, 2006
Widener Law School Legal Studies Research Paper No. 08-25
Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist was uniquely situated to have a profound impact on the development of federal environmental law - both because of the overlap of his tenure with the development of the field of environmental law and because of his four-decade tenure on the U.S. Supreme Court, more than one-half of which was as Chief Justice. Before his death on September 3, 2005, Rehnquist heard the vast majority of the Court`s environmental cases during the modern environmental era, penning opinions in 25% of them, and affording him an opportunity to shape environmental law, especially during its formative years, that no Justice is likely to match. This Article discusses how Justice (and then Chief Justice) Rehnquist interpreted federal constitutional and public law in the opinions he wrote in environmental cases. It concludes that Rehnquist`s environmental opinions reflect a three tiered agenda. First, if a case involved a constitutional or statutory property rights question, Justice Rehnquist almost always chose to protect property rights over competing environmental concerns. Second, in the absence of a property rights issue, Rehnquist almost always decided cases so as to protect state sovereignty, sometimes but not invariably with pro-environmental results. Third, in cases lacking a property rights or state sovereignty component, he almost always decided them in a way that curtailed federal power, and with it, the effectiveness of environmental law. The Article, which is part of a larger ongoing study of Justice Rehnquist`s environmental law jurisprudence, explores the extent to which Justice Rehnquist's three-tiered approach has already weakened environmental law and whether that approach is likely to contribute to further diminishment of effective environmental protection under the pollution control and natural resource management legislation in the future.

To compare management strategies for pediatric diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) among physicians with different specialty training.
We conducted a mail survey of 1000 randomly selected physicians, including 200 pediatric endocrinologists, 200 general emergency physicians, 200 pediatric emergency physicians, 200 pediatric intensivists, and 200 pediatric chief residents. We posed questions regarding a hypothetical 10-year-old patient with new onset of diabetes mellitus who is approximately 10% dehydrated but alert, with venous pH of 7.1 and serum glucose concentration of 34.7 mmol/L (625 mg/dL). Questions involved the rate of rehydration, content of intravenous fluids, insulin therapy, potassium replacement, use of sodium bicarbonate, and adjustments in therapy for decreasing serum glucose concentration. We compared responses of physicians in each specialty and used multiple regression analysis to adjust for potential confounding variables, including number of years in practice, number of children with DKA seen per month, and practice setting.
Five hundred eighty-one physicians (58.1%) completed the survey, with responses demonstrating significant, consistent differences between specialties. Extremes of responses included the following: (1) 59% of endocrinologists vs 11% of general emergency physicians would give an initial fluid bolus of less than 20 mL/kg (oddsratio [OR], 11.7; 95% confidence interval [CI], 5.0-27.7) (P<.001); (2) 83.5% of general emergency physicians vs 42.5% of pediatric intensivists would administer an initial insulin bolus (OR, 4.1; 95% CI, 2.0-8.7) (P<.001); (3) 58.2% of pediatric intensivists vs 9% of general emergency physicians would replace fluids over a period of greater than 24 hours (OR, 14.1; 95% CI, 5.5-37.5) (P<.001); and (4) 54.3% of general emergency physicians vs 7.3% of pediatric intensivists would use potassium chloride alone for potassium replacement (OR, 10.8; 95% CI, 5.0-23.8) (P<.001). All of these differences persisted after adjusting for the potential confounding variables.
Substantial differences exist in the management of pediatric DKA among physicians of different specialties, presumably due to differences in specialty training. These differences obscure our ability to evaluate the treatment of DKA and highlight the necessity for further studies comparing the outcomes of different treatment strategies.Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med. 1997;151:1125-1132

After years of mediocrity, Chandler Seton Catholic was finally able to establish itself last year as a Division IV contender.
The Sentinels capped an undefeated regular season with a strong playoff showing, making it to the state semifinals.
"We were very satisfied with the way the season went. It's been a great motivator," coach Rex Bowser said, before adding,
"Especially that last game."
Even with all that went right, Bowser can't help but concentrate on that 45-14 beating from longtime powerhouse Lakeside Blue Ridge. It's not that the coach is overlooking all that went right last year; it's just that a 31-point pounding is no way to end a perfect season.
The players know that too and with so many returning from last year's squad, Seton should once again be a top contender this year.
Quarterback Ryan Bresnahan will lead the offense again. Bresnahan completed 199 of 282 passes last year for 3,291 yards and 51 touchdowns. He loses top receiver Adam Englebert, who had 62 receptions for 1,237 yards and 24 touchdowns. Matt Haggerty, a receiver who also plays on defense and special teams, will likely be the go-to guy. Haggerty had 42 receptions for 718 yards and 10 touchdowns last year.
Bowser said Haggerty will be a triple threat.
"We're going to work him to death," he said.
The Sentinels also lose their leading rusher, A.J. Ciferno, who had 140 carries for 607 yards and nine touchdowns last season, but return running back Eric Probst. He had 56 carries for 352 yards and five touchdowns last year.
"He's just getting better and better," Bowser said.
A strong group of returners litter both lines, and Bowser said he has tweaked the defense a bit to avoid a breakdown like the one it had against Blue Ridge.
"At times, we were just awful defending the run," he said. "We're going to be a lot better fundamentally. We're a lot more aggressive."
That aggression will come accompanied with a hunger pang no doubt. After coming so close to a title shot that they could taste it, the players have got to be salivating for the start of the season Aug. 24.
"Obviously we want to experience the playoff success again," Bowser said. "We have one goal every week: to win."

UFC on the same night as Boxing - Is it wise?
Obviously you have to pay for the Boxing fight and the UFC card is free but I'm a little curious about this.
The Boxing fight has got a lot of attention on ESPN where as they haven't even talked about the UFC on FOX, and it's even being promoted on MMAFighting.com, do you think it's wise for the UFC to be going up on the same night against Boxing? As I mentioned one is free the other costs money but when it comes to attention it no doubt Pacquiao/Marquez is getting a lot more of it. Dana constantly says it's a good thing for fight fans but the Boxing crowd and the MMA crowd are very different and a lot of guys in Boxing look down on MMA.
Not to mention UFC on FOX 3 featuring Nate Diaz in the headliner didn't really do that well and it went up against Mayweather.
I'm going to a bar that is showing both. But by the time Manny is getting in the ring the ufc will be long over.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3
I dont think it is that big of a deal. I am a boxing fan, but this one isnt really grabbing my interest. It is hard to get amped up to watch a couple of dudes fight for the fourth time. I think it is silly, I understand that their first three fights were close, but given that Manny already beat Marquez twice, there really isnt any reason for this to be happening. People talk about Marquez getting robbed, but he has already had three chances to beat manny and he couldnt get it done. My guess is that this fight has Manny's lowest buyrate in quite awhile. Also, the UFC card is free...
Ill probably record the UFC and watch the boxing card.
I think it is a great idea in this particular case for the UFC because their card is on free TV and obviously the boxing is PPV. If average fans of fighting sports are given the choice to watch boxing or the UFC, they'll likely choose the one that doesn't cost $55. Plus, with the early start time for UFC, you could easily watch both (I know I will).
More chance of it happening now.
If somebody is into boxing enough to pay $70+ to see PacMan fight, they aren't going to second guess ordering the boxing event because of a free UFC event. They will pay to see the boxing match live, and tivo the UFC, or catch a re-run of it.
Second to that, if somebody is a casual fan of both sports, or is on a budget, they are more likely to tune into a free event (bonus for having a belt on the line).

Guest Post: What's that Noise? *or passing the time while pumping*
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Anyone who spends any amount of time pumping breast milk for their baby realizes quickly how mind-numbingly boring it can be. One of the biggest let-down killers is bottle-watching: waiting for the bottle to fill and only getting the drip, drip, drip... Be one of the many women who exclusively pump (EP) and you quickly realize that these hours of your life must be filled with something other than waiting for the oxytocin release. After I finished my year of EPing, I calculated that I had spent approximately one entire month of my life with my breast pump. And while I never question or regret the choice I made to express milk for my son, I also know that this time was not always relaxing or enjoyable. Finding something to do while pumping, however, can help make the experience more enjoyable. So what are your options?
There is (excuse the expression and the pun) the boob tube. During my midnight pumping sessions I became a connoisseur of late night and late, late night television. I truly believe David Letterman and I had a personal relationship. (Note to self: I must reconnect with him.) Emergency 51, Marcus Welby, and Quincy were all on in the wee hours of the night and got me through many 2 a.m. pumping sessions not to mention teaching me all about emergency medicine and autopsies!
Sleeping of course can not be discounted as an option. Yes, it can be done! While usually not a planned activity during pumping, you will be equally surprised as I was the first time you wake up, milk overflowing the collection bottles, and a sense of disorientation overflowing you. While I wouldn't necessarily recommend sleeping as an option, it is possible, does happen, and when it does happen to you, know you are not the only one!
Talking on the phone can be a very pleasant way to pass the time (as long as it's not your nosy mother-in-law you are talking to) and keep your mind off the bottles. However, you might want to carefully consider who you are talking to so when the inevitable question of "What is that noise?" arises, you can answer without embarrassment or at the very least have a quick, and perhaps distracting, response preplanned.
One of the most common methods to pass time while pumping is to surf the web. With countless hyperlinks to follow, filling fifteen to twenty minutes of your time is quite simple. Catching up on posts on the many discussion boards focused on expressing breast milk helps to build community, camaraderie and support which is so critical in what can be a very isolating activity. On the downside, you have to avoid the many opportunities available on the internet to spend money!
What else can you do? Really pretty much anything. I have even heard of women who drive their car while expressing! And when you start to consider all the possible ways to pass the time while pumping, you begin to wonder, "Just how do you manage all these things while trying to operate the pump, hold the collection bottles, do breast compressions, deal with the overflowing bottles...?"
Well, watching television can be done without the need of hands. Sleeping can easily begin without a need for hands, but pretty much anything else will require an extra set of hands- or the use of the ones you already have. For me, this was accomplished through my wonderfully short stature. In most cases, this is a detriment, but when pumping, my short stature allowed me to precariously perch the collection bottles on my knees with one forearm pressed against one bottle and the hand on the same arm holding the other bottle. This of course only frees up only one hand making very slow work of typing and requires everything be within close reach. For women nursing at the keyboard they have come up with the acronym "NAK" (nursing at keyboard) to explain poor keyboarding or spelling. I have yet to see anyone use "PAK" (pumping at keyboard) but perhaps it is time it is used as well.
Since I was pumping, more than five years ago, there have been a myriad of products come to market that allow for hands-free pumping. Hands-free devices provide a certain amount of freedom impossible without them. While not necessary, a good hands-free bra can allow women to focus on something other than the bottles and the milk being expressed and actually help to improve the volume of milk expressed. Using a hands-free bra can actually reclaim some of the time spent pumping and turn it into something that you can use for yourself.
So, what do YOU do while pumping? Drop us a line below and tell us about it!

When Tracie McGhee was a child, she was fascinated with hair – her hair, her dolls' hair, even her mother's hair.
Little did anyone know back then, but McGhee's love of doing hair would become a life-long love and her career.
"I've always wanted to do hair," McGhee, owner of Salon Royale' in Franklinville, said. "I was putting color on my mom's hair when I was eight years old."
After high school, McGhee went to cosmetology school and began doing hair professionally in 1989.
She opened Salon Royale' in Glassboro five years before relocating to her current shop in Franklinville in 2002 – to the former home of The Witches Hut Hair Fashions which had a long, successful 32-year stay.
"I had just gotten married and didn't have a family yet, but knew I wanted to have a family," McGhee said. "We saw this place and bought it right away because of the salon."
The salon is directly connected to her family home where she and her husband are raising their two children – Marlee, 8, and Jimmy, 6.
"I'm here with them every day," McGhee said. "I see them get on the bus and get off the bus every day. And they love the shop."
Marlee even calls herself mommy's "assistant," and hopes to learn how to do hair just like her mom someday.
McGhee's mother, Kathy Junkerman said she enjoys having her daughter do her hair, and is glad McGhee has a career that allows her to be with her family.
"She's raising her family and gets to be here everyday with her children," Junkerman said. "Many people don't have that option."
McGhee's Salon Royale' is a full-service hair salon, offering cuts, perms, styling, up-dos for proms and weddings, facial and arm waxing, manicures and Brazilian Keratin treatments.
Vineland resident Kathy Chinnici is a stylist who has worked at Salon Royale' for nearly nine years.
"I worked for someone else, then had my own place with a partner for twenty years, then I came here," Chinnici said.
She said she enjoys working with McGhee.
"I like my clients," she said. "I like being around people."
McGhee agreed.
"I love making women over," she said. "I like making my clients look and feel pretty."
She said she takes walk-ins, but prefers when clients make appointments.
"Then I can spend more quality time on each client," she said. "I ask a lot of questions. It's very personalized here."
McGhee is offering a spring special of a free hair cut with a full head of highlights.

Now that they are near to fledging, they set up a begging chorus of loud churring notes as soon as they hear their parents alight outside with food for them. Both parents feed them, and the skies at present are full of starlings flying determinedly overhead with their beaks full. They perch on the rooftops making scolding sounds if anything, such as a nearby cat, alarms them and prevents them from going down to the nest. In the next few days an enormous number of young starlings will be leaving

Although reducing fat solely in your buttocks isn't possible, targeted exercises can tone and strengthen your glutes. When paired with a reduced-calorie diet and regular cardiovascular exercise, your overall body fat decreases, and before you know it, you'll have a toned, shapely rear end. A stability ball or Swiss ball can add variation to your exercise routine. While challenging your balance and core stability, exercises on the ball can strengthen your muscles and improve your flexibility and physical performance. For optimal results, learn how to properly use a stability ball to target your glutes.
Wall Squats
Step 1
Stand upright with your back to a wall, spread your feet hip-width apart and point your toes forward.
Step 2
Place a stability ball against the wall behind your back and lean against it. The ball should touch your tailbone and your lower and middle back.
Step 3
Place your hands flat on your upper thighs and walk your feet about 1 foot forward while keeping your back against the ball.
Step 4
Pull in your stomach so your abdominal muscles contract and support your upper body. This is your starting position.
Step 5
Bend your knees, lower your hips and push your glutes back as if you're sitting down on a chair. The ball will slightly roll down the wall as you lower your body.
Step 6
Pause for one second when your upper legs are parallel to the floor. Ensure that your knees are directly over your toes -- if they pass beyond your toes, move your feet somewhat farther from your body.
Step 7
Push through your heels and return your body to the starting position, making sure to squeeze your buttocks at the top of the exercise. Start the next repetition right away. Complete three sets of 12 repetitions.
Glute Bridge
Step 1
Lie on your back on the floor with your lower legs and heels on a stability ball, your feet hip-width apart and slightly flexed and your arms extended outward so your body forms a T-shape. For a greater challenge, move your arms closer to the sides of your body or move your feet closer together.
Step 2
Engage your core to stabilize your upper body and to keep your back straight.
Step 3
Tighten your glutes and hamstrings, and push your hips and back up in the air until your body forms a diagonal line from your toes to your shoulders.
Step 4
Squeeze your glutes at the top of the exercise for one second before slowly lowering your body back to the floor. Immediately start the next rep. Complete three sets of 12 repetitions.
Step 1
Place a stability ball behind your lower back and lean it up against a wall to hold it in place.
Step 2
Step your right foot about 1 foot forward, and extend your left leg behind you with your heel raised so you're on the ball of your left foot.
Step 3
Contract your abdominal muscles to support your lower back and to keep your torso upright.
Step 4
Bend your knees and lower your hips down toward the floor until your front thigh is about parallel to the floor and your back knee is about 1 inch from the floor. Your front knee shouldn't go beyond your front toes.
Step 5
Return to the starting position and contract your glutes at the top of the exercise. Immediately go into the next lunge. Complete three sets of 12 reps.
- Inhale during the hardest part of each exercise and exhale during the easiest part.

IDB Provides Climate Change and Financial Sector Funding to Trinidad and Tobago
5 December 2011: The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) approved two loans for Trinidad and Tobago totaling US$130 million, including US$80 million for climate change measures and US$50 million to strengthen the financial sector.
The loan focusing on climate change activities will support the incorporation of climate change into national policies and institutions. It expects to promote national carbon markets and policies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As a small island developing State (SIDS) vulnerable to climate change impacts, the loan will also strengthen and modernize regulatory, institutional and policy frameworks to develop and promote instruments to assess and reduce vulnerability and risks associated with climate change.
The loan focusing on the financial sector is aimed to strengthen supervisory and regulatory frameworks, as a means to reinforce macroeconomic stability to minimize the probability of exposure to any future vulnerability or systemic crisis. The Ministry of Finance will be in charge of both projects. [IDB Press Release] [IDB Press Release]

There were not a lot of marquis matchups this weekend, so there also were not a lot of big surprises. Fairfield, however, made the most noise with a shocking overtime upset of No. 1 Denver on the road.
Other teams also won key conference matchups to position themselves nicely for the postseason with one week left in the regular season.
Fairfield 10, No. 1 Denver 9, OT: The Stags not only got their biggest win of the season but also clinched the last spot in the Eastern College Athletic Conference Tournament by knocking off the Pioneers. Sam Snow scored the game-winner in the extra period and Denver's first-ever No. 1 ranking lasted just one week.
No. 4 Maryland 8, No. 15 Yale 7: Mike Chanenchuk scored with 13 seconds left on an extra-man opportunity to stop the Terrapins from suffering back-to-back losses. Maryland goalie Niko Amato made a career-high 24 saves to help snap Yale's five-game win streak.
No. 2 Notre Dame 13, No. 19 Villanova 9: The Fighting Irish handed Villanova their first Big East loss and will likely jump up to the No. 1 ranking next week after Denver's loss. If Notre Dame beats Syracuse in the Big City Classic, they will claim the Big East regular season title.
No. 6 Cornell 13, Brown 7: The Big Red will host the Ivy League Tournament after clinching the regular season title with an easy win over Brown. Rob Pannell scored two goals and an assist to become the all-time points leader in conference history.
UMass 9, Hofstra 8: Colin Fleming scored with six seconds left to get the win and keep the Minutemen alive for postseason play. If Hofstra loses to No. 9 Penn State next week and UMass beats 5-9 Delaware, the Minutemen will clinch the final Colonial Athletic Association Tournament berth. The Pride, in turn, would be eliminated from NCAA Tournament contention at 7-7.
Other scores: Princeton 14, Harvard 6; Albany 16, UMBC 10; Jacksonville 11, Canisius 10; Quinnipiac 11, Wagner 10; Bucknell 13, Colgate 8; Vermont 8, Binghamton 7; Sacred Heart 14, Robert Morris 13; Marist 10, Siena 9; Mount St. Mary's 10, Bryant 9; Michigan 11, St. Joseph's 8; St. John's 16, Providence 13; North Carolina 20, High Point 8; VMI 10, Manhattan 6; Penn 11, Dartmouth 2; Virginia 12, Bellarmine 7; Loyola 19, Hobart 11; Ohio State 10, Air Force 9; Drexel 14, Towson 11; Johns Hopkins 15, Navy 4; Army 14, Holy Cross 5; Penn State 13, Delaware 7; Lehigh 14, Lafayette 5; Duke 16, Rutgers 7; Stony Brook 10, Hartford 9; Marquette 14, Detroit 9.

Neal McCoy
However, McCoy's fortunes took a turn for the better with his third album, 1994's No Doubt About It. Both the title track and "Wink" topped the country charts, and "The City Put the Country Back in Me" went Top Five, helping No Doubt About It sell over a million copies. Suddenly a breakout star, McCoy returned in 1995 with You Gotta Love That, another platinum seller that produced a total of three number three singles: "For a Change," "They're Playin' Our Song," and the title track. 1996's Neal McCoy kept his hit streak going strong, giving him a third straight platinum album and another Top Five single in "Then You Can Say Goodbye." The following year saw the release of a Greatest Hits compilation, and McCoy offered a new album later in 1997 called Be Good at It. Despite another Top Five smash in "The Shake," album sales dipped below the million mark for the first time since McCoy's breakthrough. 1999's The Life of the Party, contrary to its title, was an album of ballads and soft country-pop tunes, and both it and 2000's 24-7-365 found McCoy's sales progressively slipping. Taking some time off to recharge, McCoy returned in early 2003 with The Luckiest Man in the World, following it with That's Life in 2005. Music of Your Life, a kind of big-band jazz and country amalgram with Les Brown, Jr. and recorded for a public television special, appeared in 2011, with a new studio album, XII, finally arriving in 2012. McCoy quickly returned in 2013 with Pride, a tribute to his hero Charley Pride.~ Steve Huey & Steve Leggett

A contestant, Sally, on 'Who wants to be a Millionaire?' had reached the final plateau. If she answered the next question correctly, she would win $1,000,000. If she answered incorrectly, she would pocket only the $25,000 milestone money. And as she suspected the Million Dollar Question was no pushover.It was, 'Which of the following species of birds does not build its own nest but instead lays its eggs in the nests of other birds?Is it:A) The condorB) The buzzardC) The cuckooD) The vultureThe woman was on the spot. She did not know the answer. She had used up her 50/50 Lifeline and her Ask the Audience Lifeline.All that remained was her Phone-a-Friend Lifeline.She hoped she would not have to use it because....Well, her friend was, well, a blonde. But she had no alternative.She called her friend and gave her the question and the four choices. The blonde responded unhesitatingly: 'That's easy. The answer is C: the cuckoo.'The contestant had to make a decision and make it fast... She considered employing a reverse strategy and giving any answer except the one thather friend had given her. And considering her friend was a blonde that would seem to be the logical thing to do. But her friend had respondedwith such confidence, such certitude, that the contestant could not help but be convinced.Crossing her fingers, the contestant said, 'C: The cuckoo.''Is that your final answer?''Yes, that is my final answer.''That answer is absolutely correct! You are now a millionaire!'Three days later, the contestant hosted a party for her family and friends, including the blonde who had helped her win the million dollars.'Jeni, I just do not know how to thank you, ' said the contestant.'How did you happen to know the right answer?''Oh, come on,' said the blonde 'Everybody knows that cuckoos don't build nests. They live in clocks.'Sally fainted.

MGD replaces both amusement machine licensing duty - the annual charge for making a gaming machine available for play - and standard-rate VAT on net takings.
Premises have until this Friday (11 January) to register for the new MGD system which comes into force on 1 February.
HMRC has said it will make every effort to process late registrations but has warned operators that it cannot guarantee that applications received after 11 January will be processed by 1 February.
Licensees can be charged a penalty of between 30% and 100% of unpaid tax. Penalties may be issued even if there is no tax due.
Over 65% of the Star Pubs & Bars estate had signed up to MGD by the end of 2012 and the company says it is on track for all its pubs to be registered by the end of the week.
The company has arranged for all its lessees to be visited and given help filling in their forms, which it will then process on behalf of its lessees.
Chris Moore, trading director for Star Pubs & Bars, said: "We recognise that the process has been complicated and confusing so rather than do what most other pub companies have done and leave it to lessees to register for the tax, we have arranged for them to be visited and given help on site."
In December the Publican's Morning Advertiser revealed that 2196 pubs have had their online registrations approved and 603 have had their paper registrations approved. This is despite the fact that over 30,000 pubs are expected to be affected by the new tax regime.
HMRC is strongly advising pubs to register is via its MGD Online Registration Service at www.hmrc.gov.uk/machinegamesduty/mgd-online.htm .
