Tepid News: Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and his wife Gwyneth Paltrow have announced plans to become even more bland, according to reports.
"They intend to become totally vanilla," said a close friend of Paltrow, 39. "They've had concerns that their lives are a tiny bit interesting and now they want to completely eradicate that. They want to become the human equivalent of cottage cheese."
Paltrow and Martin, who already consider lentils to be an exciting meal, plan to make various lifestyle changes – including no longer watching TV, in the case they accidentally stumble across something to talk about – and only drinking tepid tap water, in case they encounter a pleasant flavour.
"He's a rock star and she's a famous actress," said a close friend of the couple.
"If things continue the way they are, they're in serious danger of not being run-of-the-mill and totally insipid. And we all know the dangers of living a life that is slightly above humdrum."
"Chris is already trying his best, by wearing the most uninteresting hats he can find and now he wants Gywneth to join him on the world's blandest adventure – I heard they're talking about moving into a bungalow in Milton Keynes"

Purpose: In the current study, we measured EMG suppression induced by subthreshold transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to investigate the effects of sustained cycling exercise on intracortical inhibition.
Methods: Sixteen subjects cycled at 75% of their maximum workload (Wmax) for 30 min, during which subthreshold TMS was applied at a defined crank angle where vastus lateralis (VL) EMG amplitude was increasing and approximately 50% of its recorded maximum. Subthreshold TMS was also applied during nonfatiguing control cycling bouts at 75% and 37.5% of Wmaxbefore sustained cycling.
Results: Although EMG in VL during control cycling at 37.5% Wmax was approximately half that during cycling at 75% Wmax (P ≤ 0.05), the amount of EMG suppression was not different between workloads (P > 0.05). EMG amplitude in VL recorded in the last 5 min of sustained cycling was not different from the first 5 min (P > 0.05), whereas the amount of EMG suppression at the end of the sustained cycling was significantly greater than that at the start (P ≤ 0.05).
Conclusions: The increase in TMS-evoked EMG suppression during sustained cycling implies an increase in the excitability of the intracortical inhibitory interneurons during the exercise. The observed increase in intracortical inhibition is similar to that observed during sustained single joint contractions, suggesting that changes in the responsiveness of intracortical inhibitory interneurons are similar during locomotor exercise and static single joint contractions.

Investigation of Three-Point Scheme for Identifying Local and Regional
Groundwater Flow Characteristics as Applied to Wellhead Protection and
Site Remediation
Project Duration: 09/01/96 - 08/31/98
Federal Funds Requested: $45,000
Non-Federal Funds Pledged: $92,272
Principal Investigator: Dr.
Stephen E. Silliman, The University of Notre Dame
Congressional District: Third
Statement of Critical Regional or State Water
The Midwestern states rely heavily on groundwater
resources as primary sources for drinking water, water for industry, and water
for agriculture. Protection of high quality groundwater resources and remediation
of contaminated groundwater resources are two management activities which
are becoming increasingly crucial to long term management of groundwater resources.
Both protection and remediation require knowledge of the flow characteristics
of a particular groundwater aquifer system. Unfortunately, physical heterogeneity
(that is, spatial variation in the sediments comprising at groundwater aquifer)
can make prediction of flow direction, chemical transport, and response to
pumping an extremely difficult task for the hydrologist.
Our inability to characterize the physical heterogeneity within an aquifer leads to significant uncertainty m our predictions of groundwater flow and transport behavior. Recent research (e.g. Cole and Silliman, 1996) demonstrates that uncertainty in characterizing the regional gradient can be as high as 90(in terms of direction). Further, uncertainty in characterizing the flow field has been shown to lead to large uncertainty. in the proper placement of piezometers used to monitor the movement of a chemical plume. At present, these uncertainties are generally recognized by the hydrologist, but, due to lack of tools to aid in characterization, not formally included in most hydrologic analyses (e.g., delineation of wellhead protection areas). As a result, management of groundwater is generally based on our best estimate of mean behavior, rather than on consideration of the range of behavior likely to occur at a field site (similar to a situation in which might attempt to design flood control strategies based purely on consideration of mean fiver flow rather than on the analysis of flood events such as the 10-year, 50-year, and 100-year floods). A significant need therefore exists to develop cost-effective tools whereby uncertainties in the flow and transport characteristics of a groundwater system may be quantified.
Statement of Results / Benefits
Recent mathematical theory has provided hope
that, given appropriate data sets from a field site, the problem of predicting
groundwater movement may become increasingly tractable, at least in a statistical
sense. Primary among the required data sets are measures of: (1) the regional
gradient in the hydraulic head, (2) local variations in this regional gradient,
and (3) the length scales over which the hydraulic conductivity is correlated.
Unfortunately, each of these measures are difficult to quantify at a field
site except through exhaustive, expensive field sampling combined with numerical
modelling. As a result, many of the mathematical results existing in the literature
are not being utilized. This is particularly unfortunate as much of this literature
provides the tools whereby the uncertainty in both flow and transport characteristics
of a particular aquifer can be statistically quantified.
The proposed research effort will build both
on the recent stochastic literature and on work recently completed at Notre
Dame which was specifically targeted at utilizing simple field experiments
to respond to the three data needs outlined in the previous paragraph. Based
solely on depth-to-water measurements (already collected in essentially all
field efforts involving groundwater flow), tiffs new method has been shown
to provide high quality estimates of both the mean regional gradient and local
variations in this gradient. Further, this technique provides an indirect
measure of the correlation length scale of the hydraulic conductivity. This
length scale is critical to the application of the stochastic results available
in the literature. As such, this method has the potential to revolutionize
our approach to well head protection by providing reliable measures of both
the regional gradient and the uncertainty in the gradient. These measures
will be invaluable in assigning probabilities for such events as contamination
from potential sources within and around a delineated wellhead protection
area. Further, these measures will represent significant advances in our ability
to design and monitor remediation efforts at sites where site specific information
is limited. The goal of the present study is to extend and assess the utility
of this technique through application to a variety of geologic and hydrologic
settings through direct analysis of published data sets and numerical simulation
of various hydrologic and geologic conditions (e.g. outwash sediments, alluvial
sediments, karst formations, fractured rock, etc.). The primary benefits of
this effort will be in establishing the proper application of this technique
under a variety of settings and transferring this technology into active use.
Secondary benefits will include significant educational experience for a number
of graduate and undergraduate students, and technology transfer direction
to industry.

Harry Bertoia bestows one-hundred ninety-six square inches of sleek, mid-century modernist wisdom in a piece for home and office. A hand-drawn interpretation of Bertoia's 1955 Diamond Chair for Knoll is transcribed onto black acrylic with a laser. The image is set right above a quote attributed to the sculptor: "The urge for good design is the same as the urge to go on living."
Designed to be assembled by the customer, the black image layer is clipped to an ivory backing sheet to heighten the contrast and add depth. Simple mini binder clips from any office supply store will suffice, while simultaneously providing a simple, clean way to hang the piece.
The pictures here show the piece both back-lit, which causes the ivory to glow, and mounted on a white wall, which causes the black acrylic to read as highly reflective. As the light changes throughout the day, the image will reinvent itself.
A great gift for your favorite designer, architect, or student!
To assemble: remove protective backing and excess material around edges. Poke letters out (carefully!) with x-acto knife or straight pin. Attach two pieces together with one mini binder clip in each corner. Remove silver handles from binder clips; leave two at top to hang piece.

Paul Capital winding down after sale collapses
Paul Capital is winding down its portfolio and shuttering all but one of its offices following the collapse of a planned sale to Hamilton Lane, said several people familiar with the sales process.
The firm, which buys stakes in private equity funds, told investors it will no longer make any additional investments related to its latest fund, Paul Capital Partners X, according to these people. As much as $300 million of open commitments will be returned to investors, one of the people said.
Paul Capital will instead wind down its remaining portfolio, including capital already invested through Paul Capital Partners X, and close its offices with the exception of its headquarters in San Francisco, these people said. Since its founding in 1991, the firm has opened offices in New York, London, Paris, Hong Kong and São Paulo.
The collapse of a potential sale underscores the difficulty that surrounds consolidation in the private-equity industry, where complicated economics and legacy holdings can make for complex negotiations.
Some deals have managed to make it past the finish line. Last year, StepStone Group agreed to buy Greenpark Capital, which had struggled to find its footing while out raising a secondaries fund. Meanwhile, Credit Suisse was able to unload two of its private-equity businesses in 2013, selling its Customized Fund Investment Group to Chicago-based Grosvenor Capital Management and shedding its secondary business, CS Strategic Partners, in a sale to Blackstone Group.
After struggling to raise its latest fund, which launched in 2012 with a $2 billion target, Paul Capital hired Colchester Partners to explore possible options for the firm. Dow Jones LBO Wire reported in December that Hamilton Lane, which last year acquired Shott Capital Management, was nearing an agreement to take over the business. It is unclear what caused the deal to falter.
Following the collapse of the Hamilton Lane deal, Goldman Sachs Asset Management briefly had been in discussions with Paul Capital, but no deal was reached, said two people with knowledge of the matter.
Amid uncertainty over its future, a number of executives have departed Paul Capital, including Todd Miller, a managing director, and Joshua Glaser, who headed investor relations. A team including Ken Macleod, John Leone, David Lippman and Julie Rahman also left the firm to join hedge-fund manager Visium Asset Management, though they are continuing to advise Paul Capital on its legacy health-care investment funds, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Keeping It In The Family: Big 12 Names Dan Beebe Commissioner

Beebe Commissioner
SHARE THE WEALTH: In Oklahoma, John Helsley writes "revenue sharing is among the most sensitive topics among the Big 12 hierarchy," as the "other power conferences share revenue equally." For the conference's "long-standing football powers with the largest stadiums ... status quo is preferred," but for the rest of the schools, "a true split is sought." TV revenue is "at the heart of it" because the current percentage is "based partly upon the number of television appearances a school receives" (DAILY OKLAHOMAN, 9/6). Beebe said the conference's TV split "was set up with very specific negotiated points that allowed all members to come in comfortably. We have to pay attention to that" (DALLAS MORNING NEWS, 9/6).

Since no one else has posted anything, I figure I'll give it a try.
Note: I'm not the strongest at matrix calculus so take this with a grain of salt.
You're taking the derivative of a scalar function with respect to a matrix (3 x 3). So our result is going to be a (3 x 3) matrix as well.
It looks like the difficulty here is finding .
So we know that this derivative is a 3 by 3 matrix .
And you say you have the derivative of

Les Paul, dead at 94: a studio guitarist's appreciation
Last night, I got together in my basement with some local musicians–really sharp players–to rehearse a set of cover tunes. I've never been in a cover band before, but I thought it might be a good way to keep my chops up as I search for a new original band to join or form. And the guitar player in this outfit, a dear friend, says, "Lou, mind if I borrow a guitar?"
Without hesitation, I went over to my wall and pulled out a trusted and treasured axe: a 1998 jet-black Gibson Les Paul with P-90 pickups. It's one of three Les Pauls I own, and one that I played the night I released my last album in 2007 to a sold-out room at Schubas in Chicago.
I just heard moments ago that Les Paul is dead. It's a kick in the stomach, and yet the man born Lester William Polfuss gave every ounce of himself to the world of music. Though a jazz musician by training, he was revered by nearly every rock god guitarist you can think of, from Jimmy Page to Eddie Van Halen to Pete Townshend–who loved his Les Pauls so he numbered them with big honking numerals visible from the cheap seats.
The solid-body Les Paul guitar that Lester developed with Gibson in the early 1950s IS rock and roll. Like the Fender Stratocaster, its shape is so synonymous with the genre that any musician–or music fan, for that matter–can recognize it by its single-cutaway silhouette alone.
As if that wasn't enough, Les Paul pioneered multi-track recording, too: an invention that made the complex studio sounds of today possible. A restless tinkerer, Paul figured out a way to make tape machines record multiple signals, then play them back in unison. This led him to develop an effect still used in every recording studio, every day: double tracking. His 1947 Captiol Records single "Lover (When You're Near Me)" bears two distinct trademarks: 1) it features Paul playing 8 guitar parts, recorded at various tape speeds, and 2) Paul recorded it in his garage, thereby giving birth to the one-man garage band.
Paul and his wife Mary Ford took multi-tracking to new heights; star players such as Eric Clapton made the Les Paul guitar so popular that certain models–the maple-top "Burst" being perhaps the most famous–are so valuable that some have sold for more than a quarter of a million dollars. Some "Burst" owners have even been robbed at gunpoint by people lusting after this holy grail of guitars.
One of my last pet projects at the Chicago Tribune was an attempt to interview Les Paul at his home studio, where word had it that he kept tons of old Gibson Les Paul guitar parts lying about in old cigar boxes. To you and me, they'd look like worthless old washers and such, but to vintage guitar collectors, notorious for being perfectionists, they'd be a treasure trove. Some folks might pay $1,000 for a teensy bag of 1959 "vintage" screws that hold a pick guard together on a Les Paul Gold Top, and not bat an eye.
God bless Les Paul, who consented to the interview, but not at his historic home studio: His publicist said he was too frail. I pressed, just a touch. No go … though I could fly to New York and meet him at the Iridium Jazz Club on Broadway, where he played every Monday night well into his 90s.
The Tribune wouldn't foot the airfare to do it; looking back, I wish I had paid the freight myself. I always dreamed I would meet one of the true pioneers of popular music, and hear those amazing stories of invention and creation straight from the source. Now the source is gone.
But the Les Pauls remain. And so I'm headed to the basement to plug one into a Marshall JCM 800, turn up to 11, and crank out some power chords in Les' honor.
Long live rock. Long live Les Paul.

Some think focusing on decrepit throw-back games for the PS3 is a little ridiculous. It's a $600, best-gaming-tech-you-can-possibly-get system--does it really make sense to play 15 year-old games on a next-gen console? Isn't that like using your Masserati to drop your cousin off at daycare?
We say to them "Pish posh! When the game is Mortal Kombat 2 you must have it."
Sony promises an April 12 release date for the beloved spine-ripping-out simulator. It's run you $4.99, and it allows for online play and supports a leaderboard.
That's all good.

Dangers of Fake IDs 0
The fall year is starting soon and as a new wave of students come to attend college, many students are under pressure to keep up with the notion of college partying and drinking. Fake IDs are particularly popular with underclassmen who aren't of the legal drinking age yet but besides the most obvious dangers of using a fake ID like getting caught and its illegality, there are more dangers that present themselves far before you even use it.
"Premiere" Fake ID services that craft a specific ID with your name, info, and your actual picture are usually located in counties like China, Thailand, and Malaysia. Just by Google searching, it can bring up a slew of websites that offer these fake ID services for $200 or less. However, when entering your information on these websites you never know what they are doing with the information on the other side.
Identity fraud is an ever-increasing problem in the world of online transactions and credit card payments. With sensitive information going places you can't control, submitting to get fake IDs is a dangerous game. An American identity is fairly valuable and many fake ID services may sell your identity on the virtual black market or just be a part of a bigger marketing scam.
Whether it's sharing sensitive information on Facebook and Twitter, or signing up for something illegal like a fake ID, it's important to remember that only your information can be safe guarded by you.

Expert Q & A Answers About cold sore transmission
I intimately kissed a girl...a few days later I noticed a white sore under my tongue and then a red sore on my lip. Are these STD symptoms?
I intimately kissed a girl, and few days later I got a small white sore under my tongue and then on my lower inside lip. And now I have a small light red sore on my outside lip and it itches. Are these symptoms of an STD?
Can HSV-1 in the mouth be transferred to other body parts?
I know that HSV-1 can be transmitted to the lips or genitals of one's partner. But is there a risk that the virus could be passed to other body parts, like the breasts or neck during foreplay and intercourse? And, what is the likelihood of spreading oral herpes through kissing if no symptoms are present?
Is a cold sore herpes?
I have cold sores and someone told me that means I have herpes. Is that true? I thought they were just something everyone got.

The Dublin Coffman High School boys soccer team will play for its first regional title when it opposes Olentangy Liberty on Saturday, Nov. 5, at Dublin Scioto.
The Shamrocks advanced to a Division I regional final following a 4-0 win over Reynoldsburg in a semifinal on Nov. 1 at Dublin Jerome.
Coffman improved to 12-7-1, and Reynoldsburg finished 9-8-3.
Liberty defeated Worthington Kilbourne 2-1 in a regional semifinal at Coffman.
"We definitely thought it was possible," Coffman senior Ray Gans said of his team reaching a regional final. "This was for sure one of our goals heading into the season. We've been working hard all postseason, and we've been fortunate enough to get some big wins. It's a good feeling."
The Shamrocks took control early.
Nick Gualtieri head-directed a throw-in from Zak Leedom past goalkeeper Kellan Goble with 36 minutes, 50 seconds left in the first half.
Coffman scored off another restart 5:35 later when Derek Molzahn beat Goble off a free kick by Gans.
The Shamrocks continued to dominate play, but Goble kept his team in contention for most of the first half as he turned away chances by Gans and Leedom.
Coffman extended its lead to 3-0 at the half on Marcus Manarolla's goal off another throw-in by Leedom.
The Shamrocks closed the scoring 13 minutes into the second half on Ben Kinney's goal, assisted by Ryan Prescott.
Goble, a senior, made six saves.
"It was a heck of a season we had," Reynoldsburg coach Justin Lewis said. "It was a great run in the tournament. I just think tonight we just ran out of steam. They got an early goal on us, which has happened the last two rounds. We got scored on early, but we seemed to bounce back. Tonight, Coffman got a quick second goal on us, and that was it."
Goalkeeper Carter Richardson played the first 57 minutes for Coffman before being replaced by junior Trent Rantala.
Coffman and Liberty met during a preseason scrimmage and Coffman coach Steve Watts expects a close game.
"Liberty is real technically sound," Watts said. "They tackle hard, and they play hard. They were one of the best teams of switching the ball from one side of the field to the other offensively, which we had a hard time dealing with in the scrimmage."

National Council In Canada
Ukrainian Famine Urgent
Appeal Letter And Bulletin No. 1 To:
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
President of the United States of America
October 2, 1933
AND Letter Back From The U.S. State Deparment,
November 20, 1933, Saying NO
The Ukrainian
National Council In Canada
Cor. Flora Ave and McKenzie St.
Winnipeg, Man.
Winnipeg, October 2nd, 1933
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
President of the United States of America
Washington, D.C.
Mr. President:
are taking the liberty of directing your atten-
tion to the deplorable fact that for a considerable time the popu-
lation of Eastern Ukraine (now under a military Bolshevik occupa-
tion) are being systematically starved the Moscow authorities.
tragedy of the great famine of 1921-22, when
nearly ten million people died from hunger, is being repeated,
letters are being received in Canada continuously, containing
gruesome details of the vast number dying: there are settlements
in Ukraine where only one-third -- sometimes only one fourth --
of the original populationare are still alive.
failure is not the reason for this famine,
but the brutal policy of the Moscow rulers, who needing grain
for export to balance their budget, pitilessly take everything for
the farmers, already proleterized. Especially in Ukraine, where
the peasants are opposed to the foreign Russian rule, are they be-
ing deprived of literally everything, being left without even the
smallest ration for daily meals, under the excuse that they are
hiding food. With such tactics, even a bumper crop, of huge
yield, could not save these people from starvation.
in mind the tragic plight of their compat-
riots, and realizing their moral duty in the matter, The Ukrainian
National Council in Canada turn to you, as to a leader of a great
civilized nation, with an urgent request to take the necessary
steps to arrange for an immediate neutral investigation of the
famine situation in Ukraine, with a view to organizing inter-
national relief actions for the stricken population. Any private
action, even on the largest scale, would prove inadequate owing
to the magnitude of the calamity. We are prepared to supply you,
if necessary, with the original documents and information giving
details of the famine conditions.
trust that your Excellency will take this, our
appeal, under most serious consideration.
Yours faithfully,
(Signed by)
Chairman of Advisory Board, L. Biberovich
President, S. Skoblak
Secretary, J. M. Baydaek
(names are hard to read in document)
BULLETIN No. 1, Winnipeg, Sept. 15, 1933
"There are several
cases in our district where parents have eaten
their own children in a state of insanity caused by extended starva-
tion," said Mrs. Marie Zuk, of Kalmazovka, district Odessa, Soviet
Ukraine, in conversation with Mr. L. Biberovich, General Secretary
of the U.N.C. in C. She has arrived in Winnipeg early in Septem-
ber, with her two small children, on her way to Consort, Alta.,
her husband has been farming since his arrival in Canada in 1928,
ing left her native village on August 7th, 1933.
"The most remarkable
case of this kind happened this spring in the
village of Oleshki, where a young married couple, Ivan Chuhan and
wife, killed and consumed their two small children. The gruesome
crime was accidentally discovered when a pig was stolen from the
Kolhosp (collective farm) and the members of the militia organized
a search of all of the houses in the vicinity in an endeavor to
the stolen 'treasure'. Finally they found some meat of a peculiar
appearance at Chuhan's home and, pressed to the wall, the mad admitt-
ed having murdered both of his children in order to still the unbear-
able hunger. The head of the second child was found in the oven,
where it was being prepared for consumption. The couple were
"The conditions in Ukraine were bad enough in 1930, but in 1931
became really critical. The present situation is as follows. There
is literally no bread there; no potatoes (all the seed potatoes
ing been eaten up); no meat, no sugar; in a word, nothing of the
basic necessities of life. Last year some food was obtainable oc
- casionally for money, but this year most of the bazaars (markets)
closed and empty. All cats and dogs disappeared, having perished
been eaten by hungry farmers. The same is the case with the
horses, so that cows are mostly used as draught-animals. People
also consumed all the field mice and frogs they could obtain. The
only food most of the people can afford is a simple soup prepared
water, sale, and various weeds. If somebody manages to get a cup
of millet in some way, a tablespoon of it transforms the soup into
a rare delicacy. This soup, eaten two or three times a day, is also
the only food of the small children, as the cow or any other milk
has become a mere myth.
"This soup has no nutritive value whatever, and people remaining
such a diet get first swollen limbs and faces, which makes them
pear like some dreadful caricature of human beings, then gradually
turn into living skeletons, and finally drop dead wherever they
or go. The dead bodies are held at the morgue until they number
fifty or more, and then are buried in mass graves. In the summer
the burials take place more often in view of quick decomposition
cannot be checked even by a liberal use of crooline. Especially
devastating is the mortality from hunger among children and elderly
people. Nobody ventures to dress the dead family members in any
clothes, as the next day they would be found at the morgue, naked,
stripped of everything by unknown criminals.
"There are many cases of suicide, mostly by hangings, among the
village population, and also many mental alienations.
"The famine in Soviet Ukraine in 1921 was undoubtedly a terrible
but it appears like child's play in comparison with the present
"The village Kalmazowka was one of the more fortunate ones, but
the adjoining village of Olshanka and Synukhin Brid the death toll
defied all description. Those who were not deported to the dreaded
Solevetsky Islands, or to the Ural Mountains, died from starvation,
and at present not more than one quarter of the original population
is living there -- and they are leading a life of misery. No word
of complaint or criticism, however, is tolerated by the authorities
and those guilty of the infraction of this enforced silence, disap-
pear quickly in a mysterious way.
"Worst of all, there is no escape from this hell on earth, as no
can obtain permission to leave the boundaries of Ukraine, once the
granary of Europe, and now a valley of tears and hunger.
"In crass contrast to this terrible condition of mass death from
starvation is the real condition of crops. Last year the wheat crop
is our district was good, and this year it is even better still.
fortunately the peasants derive no benefit from it, as the grain
fields are watched day and night by armed guards, to prevent theft
of grain ears, and after threshing the grain is immediately removed
to the government storehouses, or to the nearest port.
"There are two classes of farmers in Ukraine. Most of them are al-
ready 'collectivized' and are working on the state or collective
farms. A limited number still work on individual farms, but the
taxes in kind, imposed on them by the authorities, render their
existence a permanent privation. Cow milk -- and there are only
a few fortunate enough to possess a cow -- must also be delivered
to the government creameries at a nominal price. The only exception
in this general suffering are the members of the Communist Party,
and the various officials, mostly non-Ukrainians, as they receive
their 'paycks' or rations of food from the government depots.
"As mentioned above, some food could still be had last year at the
bazaars on certain occasions, but the prices were exorbitant. For
instance, a pound of bread (secretly sold) used to cost 6 rubles;
a pound of butter or sugar, 15 rubles; an apple, 2 rubles; a cup
of millet, 3 and one half rubles; 10 onion, 2 rubles; a cup of beans,
etc. The prices of manufactured goods are likewise high. A pair
of ladies' very simple shoes cost a present 90 rubles, so that the
majority of people wear primitive home-made mocassins.
"What a different picture did I find in Moscow on my way to Canada:
The markets there were flooded with most delicious food-stuffs.
Only Ukraine seems to have been sentenced to death by starvation
the central government in Russia.
"The religious life in Ukraine is at a total standstill, although
the people are perhaps more religious now than ever before. The
church communities are unable to maintain priests, who either moved
to other places or became homeless tramps. The church buildings
were turned into workmen's clubs. When, on the occasion of Christ-
mass or Easter, some travelling priest is invited to celebrate a
an once an anti-religious demonstration is staged by the local Young
Communist group, who, with an accompaniment of brass band and singing
and carry caricatures of ridiculing saints and religious rites,
to disperse the flock of the faithful. Of course, no religious wed-
ding ceremonies, funerals, or christening of babies, are performed
nowadays. Young people wishing to become man and wife, simply move
in one place and live together.
"Most of the village schools are empty, as the children are too
hungry to attend to learning. The hospitals, although some of them
are directed by good old-time physicians, are bare of all medicines.
When a sick person comes to the hospital asking for a remedy, a
liquid, held ready in bottles, is dispensed to all without any India-
ideal examination."
Mrs. Auk was expelled two years ago from her family home by the
chairman of the local collective farm who took the house for himself.
For a while she lived in a small abandoned shack on the border of
village but being later expelled from there she moved around from
house to house, wherever she could find shelter. It was a great
hardship for her to leave her home village where her old mother
a married daughter still reside, but there was no alternative in
view of threatening annihilation. It was only owing to the fact
that her husband sent her some money from time to time through the
"Trogon", which was paid to her in foodstuffs and other goods
that she was able to avoid the lot of her less fortunate compatriots.

While SHeDAISY readied their proper follow-up, they kept music on the market via a 2000 holiday album, Brand New Year, and a remixed version of the debut, The Whole Shebang: All Mixed Up, in 2001. Finally, their sophomore effort, Knock on the Sky, was released in the summer of 2002. Though its singles didn't enjoy the same level of commercial success, Sky did reach number three on the country charts, and sated the trio's growing fan base. SHeDAISY returned in 2004 with the solid pop-country effort Sweet Right Here and the enjoyable lead single, "Passenger Seat," followed by the 12-track Fortuneteller's Melody in 2006. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi

Michael Barrett, CEO and General Director of Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts, presents the lineup for the 2012 Caramoor International Music Festival, which opens on June 23 and offers enormous appeal to all audiences with a rich array of artists and repertoire from the worlds of classical, jazz, Latin and American Roots music.

Pablo Heras-Casado will have his first outing as the new Principal Conductor of the Orchestra of St. Luke's, and I think everyone will see why he was the choice for this orchestra. We've expanded our American Roots Festival in scope and ambition, and it is a pleasure to see our third year of this endeavor flourish. Gabe Kahane will collaborate and premiere a new work with our Stiefel Quartet-in-Residence, the Linden String Quartet. In my final year as Chief Executive at Caramoor, I look forward, with great anticipation, to the upcoming season, and I think the general audience will not find anything less than wonderful."

solve for x, the amount in the 5% account, then determine the amount in the 2% account
Another way of looking at it:
let "x" be the amount of money put into the 5% account and let "y" be the amount of money put into the 2% account.
The amount earned by the first account is .05x and the amount earned by the second account is .02y.
So .05x+ .02y= 60.and earned about 5% and the other 2% profit.
They earned a total of 60 dollars.
You want to solve the equations x+ y= 1500, .05x+ .02y= 60. One way of doing that is to solve the first equation for y: y= 1500- x. Then substitute that expression for y in the second equation: x+ (1500- x)= 60. That's exactly the equation skeeter gives.How much was put into each account from the start?

- 20x30cm (8 x 12") swiss roll tin
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4). Line the base of the Swiss roll tin with baking parchment.
- In a food processor, whiz together the sugar, butter and flour for the shortbread base until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Alternatively, rub together the butter and flour in a bowl with your fingertips and stir in the sugar. Tip into the prepared tin and press down with your hands or a palette knife to level out the mixture.
- Place in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown all over, then remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin.
- Once it is cool, spread over the dulce de leche to cover the shortbread, then press the roughly chopped peanuts into it, making sure they are evenly distributed.
- Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water and allow to melt. Remove from the heat and pour over the peanut-studded dulce de leche, allowing it to cool, then leave in the fridge for 1–2 hours to set. Once set, cut the mixture into squares in
- the tin and serve.

I thought J.K. Rowling wrote into the fifth book that all of the time-turners had been destroyed in the fiasco at the Ministry. If they no longer existed they couldn't be used.

According to MMA Weekly:
With a longer layoff than originally expected between shows for the WEC, Condit is now slated to return in early February to defend his title as confirmed to MMAWeekly.com by sources close to the fighter.
It's good to see Condit getting back into the cage. It's been awhile since he last fought, August to be exact. He's a highly underrated welterweight and an exciting fighter to watch. His fight against Jake Shields (Part 1, Part 2) is a classic. The report goes on to say that no opponent has yet been named for Condit.
