As Twitter has grown, we have more and more frequently used it to disseminate shit as fast as humanly possible. There is a reason that Twitter is called a microblogging service. Now we're in the playoffs, and there is information to be consumed basically all day, every day. There will definitely be tons of shit that come to our attention on Twitter that we won't stop and make a post about. So if you're still living in 2008, you should probably take like 8 seconds out of your day and follow us. This doesn't mean you're succumbing to an Internet fad rabble rabble. Your sense of self-worth will still be intact. No one even has to know you do it. But just do it. Honestly, we just don't want any readers left out of the loop on anything. It's a busy time.

4-5 December 2007
CRASSH, 17 Mill Lane, Cambridge
The aim of this conference is to look at the city as a site through which global networks of exchange and cultural transmission can be explored. Though the city has become a popular focus for research across academic disciplines and chronological periods, these studies often see urban space as an iteration of a larger system (be it nation, empire, or cosmopolitan network). Looking to develop new approaches and analytical tools for the study of world history, this conference seeks to situate the city within wider frameworks of material and cultural dissemination. In so doing we are interested in interrogating conventional views of 'modern globalisation' and in developing our understanding of longer-term processes of global transmission. The conference will explore the ways in which ideology and material culture intersect and interact to shape urban spaces and urban lives. We therefore welcome papers that cover a broad chronological and geographical spectrum, within the following broad themes:
* Problematizing Identity: notions of identity and community within the complex plurality of urban life, with particular attention to gender, race and class.
* Rights, Social Obligation and Citizenship: the construction and operation of ideas of selfhood, belonging and municipal citizenship.
* Interrogating the Discipline: new theoretical and analytical approaches to world history and urban studies.
We particularly welcome participation from graduate and early career academics. Applicants should submit a 500 word paper proposal and c.v. (in Word, RTF, or PDF format) to Eleanor Newbigin at email@example.com by TUESDAY, 10th JULY 2007 (please note new deadline!). We will contact accepted participants by Monday 30th July 2007.
For additional information about the conference, please contact Leigh Denault at firstname.lastname@example.com. or Emma Hunter at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Tiffin City Council members discussed an ordinance increasing minimum wage in compliance with Ohio Minimum Wage Law and increasing wages for non-union city employees by 3 percent at a Finance Committee meeting Monday.
The raise is applicable to all employees, union and non-union, excluding elected officials.
Council was advised to read the ordinance after discussion with the Ohio Patrolmen's Benevolent Association in union negotiations.
The wage increase is consistent with the raise increase of the police officers.
An ordinance approving the labor contract was approved at the council meeting Monday.
"We thought the 3 percent was fair and equitable," Mayor Aaron Montz said.
The ordinance to increase wages was introduced at the council meeting Monday. The union is to vote on the agreement today.
The committee also discussed the possible addition of funding for a street sweeper in the capital improvement line of next year's budget. The sweeper would cost about $230,000, with half coming from capital improvements and half coming from sewer maintenance.
Councilman Mark Hayes said he would be more comfortable having Public Works Superintendent Mike Hoffman present justification to the committee for the purchase.
Montz said the funding was included in the budget to get rid of supplemental appropriations throughout the year. In the past, if the money was needed and not originally appropriated, departments would ask council for supplemental funding.
"We need to do everything we can to budget our expenses," he said. "We need to start budgeting like we spend things."
Councilman Rich Cline suggested council's involvement in deciding what projects are included in capital improvements in order to prioritize. Montz said he would ask for an updated plan from city departments for capital improvements.
Finance Director Gwynn Reinhart said City Admininistrator Deb Reamer suggested a move from Time Warner Cable for the phone systems to Volli.
The company approached the city and said they could save the city $945 monthly, Reinhart said. She said with the necessary installation and the hardware, the city could see savings in five months.
Councilman Brian Bilger asked about the length of the contract and whether the cost would increase after a certain time period.
Reinhart is to get more information on the system before a decision is made whether to include the funding necessary for installation in next year's budget.
In other business, the committee discussed year-end budget adjustments. Changes include refunds from sewer revenue totaling $28,000. Reinhart said two businesses should have been dropped from the special connection fee, but the city has recently found the error.
Reinhart said businesses must be manually dropped from the fee.
The changes were moved to council.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Davenport University men's soccer team found the goals it was looking for Saturday evening as the Panthers opened their home slate with a 3-1 victory over Crossroads League opponent Mt. Vernon Nazarene University.
Junior Jai Maw got the monkey off the Panthers (1-2-0) back by booting the first goal of the season from 30 yards in the 15th minute. In the 28th minute, junior Stuart Collins' took a free kick just outside the penalty area and his shot found the left side of the post in the 28th minute.
The Panthers were very aggressive on the attack, outshooting the Cougars (1-2-0) 16-4, but it didn't mean that their defense had an easy evening. Although senior Kevin O'Brien record a save throughout the match, but the defense made a mistake and an own goal at 59:09 put the Cougars on board.
Despite the own goal, the Panthers were able to collect an insurance goal in the 77th minute when Bernard Brnada headed his first career goal off a cross from JC Smith.
The Panthers will travel to Lebanon, Ill., for a non-conference match against McKendree University on Labor Day. Kickoff is at 3 p.m. ET.
Post-Match Quotes - Head coach Chris Hughes
On his first win at Davenport: - "Wins always feel good, and to see the kids perform the way they did tonight, I think they deserved it. But at the same time you have to go out there and play the game. I think Mt. Vernon Nazarene has a fantastic squad; they are going to have a great year in their conference."
On the young season: - "We've been building game-by-game. I don't want to look any more than the next game this year. We need to continue to get better. I would give lots of kudos to our back line. They did a fantastic job. At the same time, it's hard to score at the collegiate level and to crank out a couple goals it makes life a lot easier."
Post-Match Notes
Tonight's win is first-year head coach Chris Hughes first at Davenport…DU remains unbeaten against Mount Vernon Nazarene, improving to 2-0-1…DU continues to dominate in its home openers, improving to 8-0-1 with the win over the Cougars.

In chapter 7, you learned about preoperational thinking. In chapter 9, you now are learning about concrete operational thinking. In chapter 11, you will learn about formal operational thinking. After you review the appropriate sections in these three chapters, indicate which of the following cases best illustrates concrete operations. Hint: There is more than one example of concrete operational thinking. Circle the letters of the best answers, and explain why they are the best answers and why the other answers are not as good.
a) Katie is asked, "Do you have a brother?" She says, "Yes." Then she is asked, "Does he have a sister?" She answers, "No."
b) Ray says, "A fly is like both insects and birds. It's like birds because it flies, but it's like insects because it has six legs."
c) Tim is working on analogies. He declares, "Biking is to pedaling as riding in a car is to stepping on the gas pedal because they both make the vehicle go!"
d) Bobby states, "I understand how this nickel and these five pennies are the same as this dime."
e) Her teacher asks Mary, "How can the scale be brought back into balance?" Mary replies, "The only way to do that is to remove the weight that made one pan sink lower than the other."

Perhaps I was unclear in my explanation. The links on the web pages served by BT's web server, starting from the homepage, are taken as explicit authorizations. Any links or URLs not explicitly presented on these pages, are implicitly assumed to be unauthorized. This is how I believe the court is interpreting the web. Thus, the legitimacy as specified in RFCs is irrelevant. BT did not provide a link to the URL the defendant attempted to access, thus his access was unauthorized [1]. [1] To enforce this requirement, perhaps they should have used the Web-Calculus http://www.waterken.com/dev/Web/ >> While the URL may indeed be valid as per the RFC, the interpretation >> of attempting to access that URL by fabrication are illegal. > > OK.

I'd wave the > RFC and point out where it is specifically > authorised. What document is their expert > going to wave? The fact that the link was not explicitly provided but was fabricated by the defendant is the difference here. You are using the RFC as an implicit authorization/contract that the web server must satisfy; if it were really a contract it would hold legal weight. RFCs do not hold weight as far as I know; seems to me, an RFC is merely an informal agreement between co-operating parties. I think the ruling is a bit silly and worrying too, but it's not completely unfounded. Sandro

I second that! Any practice reports will be much appreciated!
Yes, I would be very interested as well.
Here is a little trivia for you experts out there ...........
Who was the last senior American Lady to win a major figure skating competition in Europe?
Well, if you consider "major" competitions to be Worlds, Olympics, 4CC, Euros and the Grand Prix Series …… and if we exclude Russia as part of Europe, then we have to go all the way back to 2003 when Sasha won this event.
Has it really been 5 years? I think we are about due.
Edit to add ..... Even if we include Russia, the result is the same. Sasha won the GP Final in St. Perersburg, but that was the previous year.

We have Alissa/Rachael duo at CoR!
If you count Junior Worlds, Rachael won a major last year in Sofia, Bulgaria.
And the year before, Caroline Zhang won in Oberstdorf, Germany.
In fact, both events were swept by Americans.

And here is yet more TEB trivia to pass the time.
What, and when, was the last skating competition Joannie Rochette won outside Canada? ...............
You guessed it, this very same TEB ........ back in 2004.
Skaters deal with painted ice in Paris
Field tests the rink at the Trophee Eric Bompard
What in the... They painted the ice???More importantly, the ice was not as smooth at it could have been.
"We had a motorcycle racing show in the arena last Sunday," an official explained. "As soon as Sunday night, trucks loaded with sand left the arena. When they uncovered the ice beneath it on Monday morning, they realized that there were some colored spots on it, so they had the poor idea of covering them with white paint. The paint floated on the ice and now it prevents it to freeze."
Skaters wondered what those strange plates were in the middle of their ice sheet, and if they would glide properly. No one really paid any more attention to it after a few resurfacings.
I could not find an icon that looked sufficiently horrified
*shaking head in disbelief*

BANGKOK, 4 April 2012 – The Ministry of Public Health will send 15 teams of physicians and nurses to provide medical service for people in the procession for the Royal Cremation of Her Royal Highness Princess Bejaratana and mourners on 9 April.
Permanent Secretary for Public Health Md.Paichit Warachit said the medical teams from the ministry and physicians from the military, police as well as the private sector would be stationed at important locations surrounding the cremation site at Sanam Luang. Three rapid ambulances will be on standby in three locations around the site plus two more special ambulances for heart disease patients.
On 9 April, the Royal Urn will be moved from Dusit Throne Hall to the Royal Crematorium at Sanam Luang in the morning. Afterwards, the Royal Cremation will take place late in the afternoon.
The permanent secretary said he understood that people nationwide would want to show up at the ceremony to mourn HRH for the last time, but for unhealthy people, watching the ceremony on television would be a better option.

Mistaken identity is a definite problem. In its most extreme circumstances it's sent men to the electric chair, but the usual result is little more than embarrassment. During my recent road test with the new Subaru Legacy sedan I was asked twice if I was driving a Nissan Maxima and once if it was the Toyota Aurion. Is this compliment or insult for the fifth generation Legacy? Either way, it shows the Legacy has a new maturity in styling that has aligned it with its competitors by trading some individuality for generic appeal.
The powers at Fuji Heavy Industries have pumped up the Legacy in every direction, growing it in length, height, width and wheelbase. While there are passenger benefits to the larger dimensions the growth spurt has removed the Legacy further from its leery sports sedan roots. That said, the new aesthetic may be familiar but it's modern and smart. The bulging wheel arches, plus-sized light clusters and tasteful use of contrasting silver trim make for a handsome if conservative machine.
The Legacy has never drawn its true identity from it's mere sheet metal. What makes it unique is it's blend of boxer engine and an all-wheel-drive set up. Our test vehicle had Subaru's 3.6-litre horizontally opposed 6-cylinder boxer engine. This petrol-powered unit is the largest ever fitted to a Legacy and churns out 191kW of power and 350Nm of torque. The 3.6-litre engine only falls short of Subaru's turbocharged 2.5-litre GT motor by 4kW and matches it exactly for torque. The result is a lively 0-100kph-sprint time of 7.3 seconds and some stiff mid-range punch. Positive at any pace the motor delivers smooth consistent power and had a quiet refined demeanor that provides a valid alternative to Subaru fans who don't want the rawer turbocharged four-banger. The six-cylinder can be run on 91 RON fuel and will return 10.3l/100km economy combined.
The boxer engine is teamed up exclusively with a five-speed automatic transmission and paddle shifters. The auto box is generally relaxed with no problems finding the right gear and is capable of firing off rapid downshifts when required. The paddles functioned well but had a slight lag on up shifts, this wasn't a major issue particularly in a car that's happiest cruising with the transmission kept in D. In Premium spec the auto box is given further character with Subaru's SI-Drive system. This allows selection of three different driving styles ranging from an economy focus to a sharp sports mode.
While the Legacy's power train is impressive the vehicles true strength now, as always, lays in it's handling capabilities. The 2010 Legacy makes use of a special planetary centre differential and a limited slip rear differential that together transitions power to any wheel that needs it. The results are near staggering, with an epic level of grip regardless of conditions. During the road test the NZ weather turned on some seriously heavy rain and the Legacy refused to break traction even when provoked. These driving characteristics hold true even on gravel or in snowy conditions. When the rains subsided the Legacy was awesome on the twisty tarmac and showed a neutral stable feel that stayed flat and honest when thrown into corners. The speed sensitive steering is a fine match for the balanced chassis offering firm feedback and precise turn-in.
Ride quality is very good and the high handling capabilities don't directly result in an over firmness, with the Legacy absorbing most bumps and dips even on rougher roads. Effort has also been put into sound deadening with minimal road and wind noise entering the cabin.
The inside of the Legacy is where the increased dimensions pay off nicely. It's a spacious and pleasant atmosphere with quality dark plastics mixing into brushed metal and walnut trim. The Premium specification gives a genuine feeling of entry-level luxury and includes leather upholstery, power front seats, keyless entry and auto headlights and wipers. The instruments are large and easily read, and the switchgear is well laid out but a little basic and the main display screen is small and looks slightly dated. Rear seat room has been improved markedly and can accommodate three adults comfortably. The back seat also has a pass through opening for skis or longer items. Overall, the interior has a solid fit and finish is spacious and well appointed.
Safety features include seven airbags with a driver's knee airbag, ABS brakes with EBD, electronic stability and traction control.
The Legacy 3.6R Premium is a strong all round performer and is underestimated within its segment. The Legacy has survived its raucous youth and is now looking to be a responsible vehicle complete with safety, class and levels of grip that would embarrass superglue. It may match Toyota and Nissan in wearing a business suit instead of a Hawaiian shirt but open the throttle on a twisted road and it will show it still knows how to party. If you're looking for a grown up four-door family sedan that can be safely driven on a variety of road surfaces and offers useful grunt then check out the new Legacy.
Price: $54,990
What we like:
- Spectacular handling
- Quality interior
- Powerful engine
What we don't like:
- Uninspired styling

Yachts International - September 2006
Written by Scott Pearson
As specified in the Westport 164's design brief; sound levels are remarkably low throughout living areas, the result of materials and methods that include floating joinery connections, acoustic fill in double-wall bulkheads and isolations mounts for all machinery and hydraulics. Compressors for the walk-in freezer and refrigerator have been located in the engine room, well away from living spaces, the entire acoustic package resulting in at-rest decibel readings by Westport in the 30s, equivalent to a suburban bedroom at night. At cruise speeds the needle barely creeps above 50 dbA in the saloon, a level allowing muted conversation.
Crew accommodations forward on the lower deck include five double-bunk staterooms and a large crew mess with lounge, table and galley, finished in light tones of anigre and maple. An adjacent laundry, fitted with ample linen storage and three sets of stacked washers and dryers, facilitates stateroom make-up. Aft on the lower deck, a control room and equipment room with dive compressor flank the tender garage, where a sliding crane launches and retrieves a 22' diesel sterndrive RIB via a swing-up door in the transom.
Vango, delivered to the former owner of a Westport 130 of the same name, soon will be followed by two more 164s, both currently under construction and scheduled for launch by mid-2007. Early indications give Westport every reason to anticipate yet more orders…and the undivided attention of any other builder weighing the merits of series productions in the large-yacht realm.

5 Hilarious and Unintentionally Threatening Kid Art ProjectsJulianna Miner
I truly love anything that is unintentionally hilarious. Kids are no exception. My offspring started saying, writing and drawing things around age 2 that were so funny and awesome, I nearly fell over. The silliness continues to this day, as one of my children insists on pronouncing the word "quadrangle" as something that sounds exactly like "crotch-wrangle".
I truly do not know how elementary school teachers keep a straight face when these things happen in class
When I came across these unintentionally funny and threatening notes and drawings from kids on the site HappyPlace.com – I was eager to share them. If you want to see the full set, click over to HappyPlace.com – they're all hilarious.

Highs and Lows
We have seen a little bit of everything from the St. Louis Blues this season. Big wins, big losses and our fair share of highs and lows. Nearing the halfway mark in the year we ask: What has been your high and low point on the year so far? Inside is a breakdown of some of the biggest accomplishments and high water marks this year as well as the moments that made me chuck things across the room. FrozenNotes asked and you responded, read on to see what other Blues fans think.
This feels like a pretty appropriate time to ask this question. The Blues took three on the road on a Canadien road trip but follow it up with a tough loss in Minnesota and yet another loss at home in what could be labeled an uninspired third period performance. One very big high followed by a pretty crushing low all in the matter of days.
This got me thinking – we sure have seen a ridiculous amount of positives and negatives in a very short amount of time. So I asked through the FrozenNotes twitter account: What's your high and low point from this year so far?
The Blues Twitter community responded with some diverse, if not comical responses.
Acowden1 : High point: Sharks game – Low point: The power-play.
Two great choices. The Blues pulled scored a miracle last second goal in San Jose on the road to send the game to OT. Carlo buried a no-look turnaround wrister sending many Blues fans into a celebration that likely woke their significant other if not the neighbors. The Blues went on to win in a shootout (T.J. Oshie's chance went through the five hole of a frozen Evgeni Nabokov) which renewed hope in fans that if their side could beat the Sharks at home that they could be a force this year afterall.
The power-play. Can't argue this one. It has been dreadful and that's being kind. It currently ranks 25th at 15.7%, but that is following a recent improvement. For a large chunk of the season, the Blues power-play ranked dead last, stuck in the 12-13% range.
You only need to look back at the Buffalo game to see just how miserable the play with the man advantage has been. With the game sitting at 4-3, the Blues took to the power-play with hopes of evening the score line. A questionable line change and some poor defending later, Tim Connolly of the Sabres roughed a shot over Ty Conklin in what was the final goal in the 5-3 defeat. Ugly, just ugly.
BrewerWatch: High point: Taking seven of eight points against Detroit, affectionately labeled DeToilet. Low point: Brewer's return.
It's amazing how many fans of the Blues despise Eric Brewer. I have always been under the rule of if a guy skates for your side you cheer for him – it makes no sense to hate a player who is trying to get "W"s for your favorite team. I'm all for hating an opponent, but hating a member of your own squad seems like a waste of time. Sure, there may be guys you love, like and have no feeling toward, and dislike, but hate to the extent of booing whenever his name is mentioned, even when he scores? That borderlines on moronic. I've witnessed it myself. Brewer is announced on opening night and some fans boo. Why? Did he make a bad play? I hate to break it to you Brewer haters, but this is a team effort and Brew has been far from the worst on the side this season. His injuries are discouraging, but he certainly hasn't played horribly to deserve the fan abuse he has received. I'm not saying he has been good, or even solid, but let's at least be honest with ourselves and admit that it is goal scoring that is the problem – not defense. Maybe the Brew haters should refocus their efforts at the least productive $6,000,000 man in the league (Kariya). That at least is warranted a bit more.
On the positive side, the Blues have had Detroit's number this season and should be a perfect 4-0 if it weren't for a mental collapse late at home when Detroit brought on the extra attacker. Detroit is a shadow of the side they used to be and has had to deal with a plethora of injured key players, but wins over a rival are still pretty sweet.
JoelFaucett: High point: Another vote for the great play against Detroit this season. Low point: The very last second loss against DET I previously mentioned (the lone game he has seen in person this season).
Many fans, myself as well as some season ticket holders, have yet to see a win at home this season. Never a good sign.
My own: High point: Three road wins in a row against Western Canada. I thought this was a turning point and could lead to the team cracking the Western top eight sooner than later. Low point: Wow, so many to choose from. The Edmonton meltdown. The last second goals allowed in multiple games. The fact this team continually lacks urgency and consistency.
If you've checked in on this blog on a regular basis, you are more than familiar with my take on the highs and lows.
A few fans have sounded off – now it's your turn. Chime in on the comments or on Twitter.

Guest Post: The breast feeding scapegoat
At times, this blog probably needs a break from the α-male attitude exuded by your host. Therefore, Hysell Oviedo, a senior postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Tony Zador at CSHL will periodically bring a woman's perspective to scientific publishing and life as a scientist. Having grown up in the Dominican Republic, she will also speak on her experiences as a minority breaking into the world of science. Once I force her to sign up for an account at NN, she will be glad to reply to your comments. Enjoy, but be warned, she is extremely opinionated and is not afraid to speak her mind…
A recent piece by the journalist Hanna Rosin in The Atlantic entitled The Case Against Breast-Feeding has gone where no one has dared to go in the last 50 years. She uses a combination of personal vignettes and selective review of the medical literature to push the idea that breast milk is not all it's cracked up to be. Her greater context is that breast-feeding puts a huge burden on mothers that may not be worth it after all. This piece would seem like a relief to professional mothers, especially scientists, who struggle with balancing time with the family and who are in a profession that expects long work hours in a setting that's often unsafe for children (can't stash baby next to harmful chemicals). However, I feel that her arguments are a misrepresentation, focusing all of the challenges of motherhood on an odd scapegoat.
One sentiment I do agree with in Rosin's piece is that in the upper echelons of American society there is a fascist and competitive attitude about mothering. This is not the case in lower economic circles in America or in Europe. When well-off American pregnant women tell their European friends that they've cut out coffee and wine, the usual response is: "why would you do that? My doctor said I can do anything in moderation, except smoking." (cont.)
The biggest problem with bottle-feeding (whether it's breast milk or formula) is that there is an emphasis on the baby finishing a specific amount of milk. I watch it every day at the daycare center where I have my daughter; worried mothers call constantly to ask how many ounces their babies have consumed. I've watched fathers force feed their babies formula while growling "Finish it buddy!" The baby does finish it, and a few minutes later the baby pukes all over his shirt. With breast-feeding, the infant can regulate how much and how often to feed; this is a more natural, personalized feeding system. Studies have already linked bottle-fed babies with obesity.
From a scientific stand-point, a quick PubMed search reveals a plethora of research papers studying the components of breast milk and their role in the development of an infant's immune system (reviewed here). Even though we have been studying human milk since the 1980s, our understanding of its role in the development of an infant's immune system is still far from complete. We still don't understand the role of some of the components in breast milk. Also, the scientific literature does not support Ms. Rosin's statements regarding maternal antibodies not entering the infant's bloodstream. The antimicrobial substances in breast milk tend to be resistant to breakdown in the infant's gut. As far as studies looking at long-term benefits of breast-feeding/breast milk, it is true that there will be some inconsistencies across infants because, as she highlighted, it's hard to do controlled studies with humans.
The only positive outcome of Ms. Rosin's piece was that it inspired a discussion on the issue of extended maternity leave by NY Times columnist Judith Werner (who jumps right on Ms. Rosin's bandwagon). This is the real issue American women should be livid about. At most, we can take off 3 months, fathers rarely get paternity leave, and only precious few work places offer any daycare assistance. If academic institutions truly want more women to stay in academia they need to step up to the plate and offer on-site daycare facilities, which would allow mothers to continue breast-feeding on demand as well as be more present. Unfortunately, I get a sense that women in science will not be at the forefront of this battle, at least in America. In a profession dominated by people (i.e. men) who work endless hours (albeit inefficiently), women tend to rush back to work after having a child. Watching recent mothers returning to the lab, I've seen everything from one stressed soul working on a paper hours after having a c-section to others going back to the lab only after one month away from the bench. The first woman never published that paper and, tragically, even any of her Ph.D. research. The other mothers consistently expressed regret for only taking a short leave.
I think there is a silver lining for mothers in science. We can exploit the flexibility of our jobs to spend more time with our children. This includes going to see/nurse baby during experimental down time (e.g. gels running), working at night while baby sleeps (let dad take over if baby wakes up) and don't forget that you don't have to attend every single talk (you get so much more from reading the paper…perhaps while cradling baby to sleep if you must!)
Putting breast-feeding at the forefront of women enslavement is misguided and I suspect Ms. Rosin is using it to attract attention and be controversial, while having the safety net of being a breast-feeding mom. Considering the amount of effort and time diligent mothers spend watching over their children, putting them to sleep, entertaining, and educating (just to name a few biggies), breast-feeding is a breeze (my daughter empties both my breasts in less than 10 minutes). In this so-called age of parental equality, women still end up doing a lot more domestic work than men, even when they both work. If you really want to highlight issues enslaving women with children, Ms. Rosin, how about turning up the heat on the fathers!

If he does 1 quad SP's and 1 or 2 quad LP's in both the team and Individual events I will be surprised! I just think he does quads in the individual event SP and LP. Only he will know how he feels after quads in Russian nationals and Europeans and then the team event and then the SP of the individual.
This conversation is so theoretical!!! Plushy begins the training in May. He will work off ice with his new choreographers, probably with famous ballet dancers and choreographers ( Patrick de Bana? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFUV8O5ma0c and Igor Zelensky-he had two similar intervertebral disc surgeries, like Plushy had). He will take on the ice in June. And we can't know what will be with his back.
But I can see why saying he is just a jumper is convenient especially now: before the injury, people can conveniently say he won because of his consistent jumps. At the same time forming the idea of "if he cannot jump well, he is just an average or even lower skater" in people's mind. Now he is injured, so probably he could not jump as well as before, hence he is merely an average skater now.
Nevertheless, cannot wait for the summer to come so that we will know how well he recovers from the operation.
In all honesty, probably not. He hasn't competed enough since the last games, and yes, his injuries have not helped. And unfortunately same goes for Weir and to an extent Lysacek.
If they are smart, they will test him several times doing 4 programs in the Olympic's
time frame. Sometimes "matter" wins out over "mind". I suspect that will be the case here.
I want to see Plushenko on the ice, who is a little bit different from the others, who has kept the style and personality, but adapted to the new requirements as well. I do not want to see second-third Chan, and so on. This is very difficult. Look at Fernandez, Ten they skate in totally North-American style....
And is he only a jumper? Sometimes I think, the North-American people don't know or don't remember his skating. They know the Godfather program in Torino, and his Tango Amore program in 2010, but no more, and they repeat what they read or heard somewhere.
I can't wait this summer!
They'll remember his skating for its high difficulty and consistent jumping more than for its complexity/interpretation. Although certainly in places outside of North America his style would be appreciated more. At risk of sounding pretentious, I think North American audiences are more attuned to subtlety (which could also come across as safe or boring if it's too subtle), whereas European audiences are fans of flamboyance and theatrics (which could also come across as over the top).
Then why my guy is not a World/Olympic champion?
Chan fans are so alike. Zzzz..
Still no newly-brand trolling? For an off-season I am expecting more creativity that repeatedly rant about Vancouver-whatever in multiple Plu threads.

ANTI-apartheid activist and academic Mamphela Ramphele on Thursday called for citizen participation in various spheres of South African development, to bring about state accountability and a dynamic economy.
Addressing business leaders in Johannesburg Dr Ramphele said there was still considerable inequality in South Africa, despite measures put in place to address this.
"Even though we had the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, we did not deal with the impact that racism had on the socioeconomic front," she said.
She said sentiments of guilt and inferiority from racial groups needed to be set aside in order for the country to develop economically.
"We need to grow up and see that although history has bequeathed us challenges, in those challenges lie opportunities," she said.
Dr Ramphele also mentioned that policies, such as black economic empowerment (BEE), were "unhelpful" when implemented incorrectly.
"Another form of patronage that creates disconnect is BEE because not every black person has access. Only those that are well connected benefit," she said.
Dr Ramphele initiated the Citizen Movement for Social Change, which is aimed at mobilising South Africans to bring about positive change within society and the country's economy.
"The movement itself won't fight corruption but will mobilise you to fight corruption," she said.
Dr Ramphele reiterated the significance of education, saying it was "a sure and tested way out of poverty".
She urged South Africans to "learn the lessons of history", saying "bullies and despots only listen to a bold voice" that would set boundaries and "draw the line in the sand".

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- No one has played Augusta National better than Phil Mickelson over the past decade, which makes this dangerous territory. He is a three-time winner. He knows every hill on the course.
Still: His last five rounds here? 76-77-73-76-73. He has shot in the 60s just twice in his last 14 rounds, and after a 54th place finish in 2013, he was in severe danger of missing the cut in 2014.
So here goes: Have we seen the last of Mickelson as a Masters contender?
Note: Someone asked that question of Jack Nicklaus in 1986, and his friends taped it to the refrigerator. He won his sixth green jacket, at 46. Mickelson is three years younger than that. He'll get a few more cracks.
But he just hasn't looked right here in a long while. The latest example was a triple-bogey six on the famous 12th hole, when he went from one bunker to the other -- his great short game failing him again.
"I keep making these triples, they're tough to overcome," he said.
He came here with high hopes despite a pulled muscle that forced him to pull out of three events this year. He has not missed the cut at Augusta since 1997, posting an incredible nine top-5 finishes since then.
"Why couldn't I get it going?" Mickelson said. "You know, I don't really have a great answer for you. I've actually played reasonably well for a majority of the holes and then the ones that I let slide I end up making a big number. So it's tough to overcome those big numbers."

Fans sometimes get lost in the honest statistics when emotion fuels thought, especially when it comes to rivalry games. It's important to keep perspective and see things for what they really are.
The media is responsible for pumping up certain rivalries (Jets-Patriots), but there's no doubt about the purity of these games when the following teams match up against one another.
Rivalries on the list are discussed more in the historical sense and less about what's happening right now, as Oklahoma has been better than Texas in the past five years but the Longhorns have been greater in their existence.
Let's get to the countdown.

Arsenal-Spurs tops bill in FA Cup third round
04 Jan 2014 - 4:31
Roland Lamah (front) of Swansea and Pablo Vincent Kompany (rear) of Manchester City vie for the ball during their English Premier League match at the Liberty Stadium, Swansea, Britain, on January 1.
LONDON: England's frenetic festive period gives way to the romance of the FA Cup this weekend, with Tottenham Hotspur's trip to north London rivals Arsenal the pick of the third-round ties.
Manchester United will once again look to the cups for consolation when they host Swansea City, while Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City will all be seeking to avoid embarrassment at the hands of lower-league teams.
It is now nine years since Arsenal beat United on penalties in the 2005 FA Cup final to claim their last piece of silverware, but as Premier League leaders their star is in the ascendant once again.
However, in old foes Spurs they face a side bolstered by the arrival of new manager Tim Sherwood and bubbling with renewed self-belief after a 2-1 success at United on New Year's Day.
Frozen out under former manager Andre Villas-Boas, Emmanuel Adebayor continued his impressive recent form with the opening goal at Old Trafford and team-mate Danny Rose has backed him to shine against his former club Arsenal on Saturday.
"He has been like a new signing," said the Spurs left-back.
"He has scored four goals in his last five games, which is brilliant for us. Considering he didn't play a game from pre-season until a few weeks ago, his energy levels have actually been brilliant."
Arsenal's 2-0 win over Cardiff City on Wednesday was tempered by an ankle injury to goal-scorer Nicklas Bendtner, but French striker Olivier Giroud could be fit to face Spurs after an ankle problem of his own.The two sides last met in the FA Cup in April 2001, when a Robert Pires tap-in earned Arsenal a 2-1 semi-final victory at Old Trafford.
United's loss to Spurs on Wednesday was their sixth of the Premier League campaign and left them 11 points off the pace, but they have shown impressive form in the cup competitions this season.
David Moyes's side have reached the Champions League last 16 and the semi-finals of the League Cup, and the FA Cup, which United last won in 2004, represents another means of salvaging their season.
Centre-back Jonny Evans says that the players are only slowly coming to terms with the impact of former manager Alex Ferguson's retirement in May.
The third-round draw yielded few opportunities for genuine upsets, but Liverpool, Aston Villa and Sunderland all face third-tier opposition in the shape of, respectively, Oldham Athletic, Sheffield United and Carlisle United.
Chelsea, meanwhile, visit Derby County, who recently won seven games in a row in the second-tier Championship under former England manager Steve McClaren, while Manchester City travel to Blackburn Rovers. AFP
La Liga: Barca and Atletico jostle for the top position
MADRID: After a short winter break, Spain's top-flight clubs are back in action this weekend with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid jostling for position at the top of the table and a Basque derby also on the cards.
Reigning champions Barcelona and Diego Simeone's Atletico are level on points at the top and are due to face each other in a mouthwatering fixture in Madrid next weekend.
Prior to that, though, Atletico go to Malaga today and Barcelona entertain Elche tomorrow before both sides have Copa del Rey ties to think about in midweek. Atletico, who have signed Argentine midfielder Jose Ernesto Sosa on loan from Metalist Kharkiv until the end of the season, will face a Malaga side who won their last two league games of 2013 to climb up into mid-table.
Brazilian full-back Filipe Luis insists that the Rojiblancos are fully focused on their trip to La Rosaleda as they look to keep the pressure on Barcelona.
"Knowing the coach and the squad, nobody is thinking about the Barcelona game. Maybe the supporters are, but we all know that the Malaga match is vital," he said.
"We have not won there in two or three years and it is a difficult venue for us."
Both Atletico and Barca have enjoyed stunning starts to the campaign, winning 15 and drawing one of 17 games in La Liga, but the Catalans have not always performed convincingly since Gerardo Martino took over as coach in the summer.
Nevertheless, the champions have been boosted by the return to the squad of goalkeeper Victor Valdes after injury, while Lionel Messi is also edging closer to a comeback. Barca midfielder Andres Iniesta is hoping a win against Elche - who sit just two points above the drop zone - can set his team up for a successful 2014.
"A good new year for us means winning everything" said the man who scored Spain's World Cup-winning goal in 2010.
"When you have the chance to reach the top, you have to fight hard, and that's the kind of ambition that we hope will take us into April and May in contention. The team is playing well, and we need to grow from here."
Real Madrid, who sit third in the table, five points adrift of the top two, are in action on the Monday Three Kings Day holiday with a home fixture against Celta Vigo at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The extra time to prepare for that game was used up playing in a glamour friendly against Paris Saint-Germain in Qatar on Thursday, which Carlo Ancelotti's team won 1-0 thanks to a first-half goal from young striker Jese.
"We are coming from behind but we have the whole second half of the season to come back and win the league," Ancelotti said. AFP

Event will kick off on May 20
Saudi Arabia is creating the conservative kingdom's first official film fest, despite the fact that cinemas have been banned there for three decades.
Five-day fest, as yet untitled, is being organized by the government-sponsored Dammam Literary Club along with the Saudi Society of Arts and Culture.
Event will unspool May 20 and include screenings of shorts and docs from around the Gulf. A prize dubbed "The Palm" will be awarded to best short and doc.
The Dammam Literary Club has been hosting private screenings for segregated audiences of men and women in recent months in a sign that the ban's restrictions are being gently eased.
In October 2005, the first public screenings of any kind in more than 20 years took place when cartoons unspooled in a hotel in Riyadh to a specially invited audience of women and children to celebrate the end of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan.
In July 2006, the privately financed Jeddah Visual Festival — which avoided the term "film" in any of its publicity — was held in front of a specially invited audience. Jeddah organizers held a sophomore edition last year.
With an estimated population of 27.5 million, oil-rich Saudi Arabia could potentially become the biggest single market for Arab distribs, although bigscreen fare will be heavily censored and restricted to family-friendly pix.

Economy of SME: Which Economic Reality
Bernard Paranque
Kedge Business School; Aix Marseille Université-LEST - CNRS 7317
Euro-Mediterranean Economics and Finance Review, Vol. 1, No. 4, September 2006
This paper is about what is called usually SME (Small and medium-sized entreprises, thus including the very small companies). But it raises in preamble the question of the relevance, from an economic point of view, of this statistical category, defined, for example, like the companies employing less than 500 workers by the french statistical insitute (INSEE). It has the aim of providing a framework of analysis. It focuses on the comprehension of this form of organization in order to allow the construction of actions of transformation of the existing situations aiming at increasing the economic and social effectiveness, not only of the company itself but also of the territories in which it fits.

A heart murmur is a blowing, whooshing, or rasping sound heard during a heartbeat. The sound is caused by turbulent (rough) blood flow through the heart valves or near the heart.
Chest sounds - murmurs; Heart sounds - abnormal; Murmur - innocent; Innocent murmur; Systolic heart murmur; Diastolic heart murmur
The heart has four chambers:
The heart has valves that close with each heartbeat, causing blood to flow in only one direction. The valves are located between the chambers.
Murmurs can happen for many reasons, such as:
There are several ways in which your doctor may describe a murmur:
When a murmur is more noticeable, the doctor may be able to feel it with the palm of the hand over the heart.
Things the doctor will look for in the exam include:
Many heart murmurs are harmless. These types of murmurs are called innocent murmurs. They will not cause any symptoms or problems. Innocent murmurs do not need treatment.
Other heart murmurs may indicate an abnormality in the heart. These abnormal murmurs can be caused by:
Significant murmurs in children are more likely to be caused by:
Multiple murmurs may result from a combination of heart problems.
Children often have murmurs as a normal part of development. These murmurs do not need treatment. They may include:
A doctor or nurse can listen to your heart sounds by placing a stethoscope over your chest. You will be asked questions about your medical history and symptoms, such as:
The doctor may ask you to squat, stand, or hold your breath while bearing down or gripping something with your hands to listen to your heart.
