CHELYABINSK, Russia — As a small army of people worked to replace acres of windows shattered by the enormous explosion from a meteor, many joked yesterday about what had happened in this troubled pocket of Russia.
One of the most-popular jests: Residents of the meteor were terrified to see Chelyabinsk approaching.
The fireball that streaked into the sky over this tough industrial city at about sunrise on Friday was undeniably traumatic. Nearly 1,200 people were reported injured by the shock wave from the explosion, estimated to be 20 times stronger than the atomic bomb used at Hiroshima.
But it also brought a sense of cooperation in a troubled region. Large numbers of volunteers came forward to help fix the damage caused by the explosion, and many residents came together on the Internet — first to find out what happened and soon to make jokes.
Chelyabinsk, nicknamed Tankograd because it produced the famed Soviet T-34 tanks, can be as grim as its backbone heavy industries. Long winters where temperatures routinely hit minus-22 Fahrenheit add to a general dour mien, as do worries about dangerous facilities in the region.
In 1957, a waste tank at the Mayak nuclear-weapons plant in the Chelyabinsk region exploded, contaminating 9,200 square miles and prompting authorities to evacuate 10,000 nearby residents. It is now Russia's main nuclear-waste-disposal facility. A vast plant for disposal of chemical weapons lies 50 miles east of the city.
"The city is a place where people always seem bitter with each other," said music teacher Ilya Shibanov. But the meteor "was one of the rare times when people started to live together through one event."
For many, the meteor has provided a reason to roll up their sleeves and get to work repairing the more than 4,000 buildings where windows were shattered, or to provide other services.
More than 24,000 people have mobilized to cover windows, gather warm clothes and food, and make other relief efforts, the regional governor's office said. Crews from glass companies in adjacent regions were being flown in.
Gov. Mikhail Yurevich said yesterday that damage from the high-altitude explosion is estimated at $33 million. He promised to have all the broken windows replaced within a week.
But that is a long wait in a frigid region. The midday temperature in Chelyabinsk was 10 degrees, and for many the immediate task was to put up plastic sheeting and boards on home windows.
Meanwhile, the search continued for major fragments of the meteor.
In the town of Chebarkul, 50 miles west of Chelyabinsk, divers explored the bottom of an ice-crusted lake looking for fragments thought to have fallen there, leaving a 20-foot-wide hole.Emergency Ministry spokeswoman Irina Rossius told Russian news agencies the search hadn't found anything.
Police kept a small crowd of curious onlookers from venturing out onto the icy lake, where a tent was set up for the divers.
Many of them were still trying to process the memories of the strange day they'd lived through.
Valery Fomichov said he had been out for a run when the meteor streaked across the sky shortly after sunrise.
"I glanced up and saw a glowing dot in the west. And it got bigger and bigger, like a soccer ball, until it became blindingly white and I turned away," he said.
In Chelyabinsk, university student Ksenia Arslanova said she was pleased that people in the city of 1 million generally behaved well after the bewildering flash and explosions.
"People were kind of ironic about it. And that's a good thing, that people didn't run to the grocery store. Everyone was calm," the 19-year-old architecture student said. "I'm proud that our city didn't fall into depression."
As Chelyabinsk began its healing process, residents of San Francisco, on the other side of the planet, worried that they might be next. A science institute in northern California says it has received numerous reports of a bright streak of light over the San Francisco Bay area on Friday night.
Several days earlier, Cuba apparently experienced a phenomenon similar to the meteorite that detonated over Russia this week, island media reported, with startled residents describing a bright light in the sky and a loud explosion that shook windows and walls.

Tags: Clean Energy
Yesterday, former Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm praised the potential of clean, renewable wind energy in a Politico op-ed, exhorting Congress to protect the 37,000 U.S. jobs that will be lost if wind tax credits are not extended.
Responding to House Speaker John Boehner's observation that "employment is still too high," Granholm asserts:
"There's one sector of the American economy that is losing jobs as we speak — and you can put a stop to it."
Sixty percent of wind turbine parts are now made in the U.S., but a number of wind energy industries already considering relocating out of country with the impending loss of support, including wind turbine manufacturers Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Vestas, and Nordex. Vestas has threatened to lay-off 1,600 U.S. workers should Congress refuse to support the industry.
Congressional Republican leadership continues to make no move towards extending the wind tax credits, despite having just passed the Ryan budget continuing $4 billion in annual tax credits for Big Oil.
Granholm also notes that a recent Pew survey shows "a bipartisan majority of Americans want to see our country invest in renewable energy — even after the attempts to manufacture scandals surrounding Solyndra."

Walking Dead writer/producer Robert Kirkman appeared at a SXSW panel this weekend and explained some details about the upcoming Walking Dead spin-off series, currently in the works. First off, Kirkman revealed that the yet-to-be-titled series wouldn't have anything to do with the source material: "It's not going to relate to the comics at all." Instead, it would focus on other groups of survivors, and even though it would begin before the events of The Walking Dead, the timelines of the two shows will eventually intersect:
The intent of the new show is to expand that world and show another corner of the United States and what's happening there. The timeline is taking place a little bit earlier timeframe than the original show … I wouldn't call it 'prequel' because the entirety of the show is not going take place before [The Walking Dead]. It will eventually form a path running concurrently.
And though Kirkman emphasized that both shows would be stand-alone series, he did leave open the possibility for narrative crossovers in the storylines. If yet another Hollywood comic-book series spin-off has you frustrated about the lack of innovation from TV and movie storytellers, at least Kirkman maintained a degree of self-awareness about the whole idea: "And then we're going to cross it over for an Avengers movie and it will be great" ... Discuss
The upcoming, yet-to-be titled Walking Dead spinoff has found its lead. According to Deadline, Kim Dickens, who most recently drew attention for her role in David Fincher's Gone Girl, will star as a guidance counselor and mother of two who "looks like the girl next door but has a darkness to her, a troubled past that will come back to haunt her." Actor Cliff Curtis will play the male lead, a co-worker who is in a relationship with Dickens' character. Robert Kirkman, the man behind the original Walking Dead graphic novel, created the series, which takes place during the same zombie takeover, but in a different location ... Discuss
Just days after AMC announced that it was working on a Saul-themed Breaking Bad spin-off series (to be titled Better Call Saul), the cable network released a statement saying that it is working on a new show that takes place in the Walking Dead universe. The new, yet-to-be-titled series (we'd like to suggest, Walking Dead: The College Years), which hits primetime in 2015, won't be based on any existing characters, but will instead follow a totally different group of zombie apocalypse survivors. In the statement, series creator Robert Kirkman said, "The opportunity to make a show that isn't tethered by the events of the comic book, and is truly a blank page, has set my creativity racing." Now, all we need is a Mad Men spin-off, and AMC will be good to go for the next five years … Discuss

Columbus police, advocates for people with disabilities and Central Ohio Crime Stoppers teamed up yesterday to announce an initiative to fight crime against two vulnerable groups.
Detective Gerald Milner said at a news conference that he investigated too many crimes against the elderly and people with disabilities when he worked in the Police Division's forgery and fraud unit.
"It still bothers me," he said. "Crimes against the elderly and handicapped are very special to me."
Criminals take aim at those groups at substantially higher rates than the rest of the population, according to U.S. Department of Justice statistics. Local statistics were not available.
Age and physical challenges can cause people to be perceived as easy marks, particularly when it comes to financial fraud. Fears of coming forward often keep the crimes hidden.
Family members, friends and caregivers are the thieves in 55 percent of the financial-abuse cases against older people, according to a national report by the MetLife Mature Market Institute, the National Committee for the Prevention of Elder Abuse and the Center for Gerontology at Virginia Tech.
An estimated 1 million older American lose more than $2.6 million annually to financial fraud, the report found. For each case reported, an estimated four or five are not.
"People often think of these cases as a civil matter," said Bill Taylor, president of Central Ohio Crime Stoppers. "But it's criminal, and we want to raise awareness so more of these crimes are reported."
To get the word out, the Mid-Ohio Board for Independent Living, or MOBILE, an advocacy group that works with the disabled, will distribute crime-prevention tips and other self-protection information to its clients. The group also will encourage clients "who are at home ... looking out the window" to be on the watch for other crimes, said John Coats II, MOBILE's executive director.
Anyone who is afraid to report crimes to police will be encouraged to call Crime Stoppers, which takes anonymous tips on unsolved crimes and offers cash rewards for information that leads to an arrest or indictment.
Crime Stoppers, in turn, plans to publicize more crimes against the elderly and the disabled in its "crime of the week" features that go out to local news media.

I'm here at the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival, and having the experience of listening to Craig Handy play music that has absolutely no connection to Bird whatsoever. It says something about our culture when one of the greatest musicians of the last 100 years has a festival dedicated to him and the artists chosen for the lineup play music that he wouldn't have dug. This is like having a festival dedicated to Bach but instead of hearing Bach, you hear Vivaldi.

18 January 2006: Yash Chopra has been invited as a member of the International Jury of the prestigious Berlin International Film Festival this year. This is a significant marker acknowledging India's place in World Cinema. The Berlin Festival is the second most prestigious in the world after Cannes.
Yash Chopra is the first Bollywood personality in 25 years to have been given this honour.
Yash Chopra's latest directorial masterpiece, "Veer-Zaara", had got the prestigious recognition of being selected as one of the films to be screened at the 55th Berlin International Film Festival last year (2005), in the "International Forum of New Cinema" section.
Yash Chopra's ode to unswerving love, "Veer-Zaara" was shown last year to sell out crowds and many film enthusiasts – be they Germans, Afghans, Iranians, Indians or Pakistanis were seen outside the theatre showing his film weeping because they were unable to get a seat. Both the screenings of "Veer-Zaara" saw an unprecedented response from the full capacity audience, with even the tough German men reaching for their handkerchiefs, as they all continued to clap throughout the end credits, after a 3 hour visual treat of colour, dance and fabulous performances riding on a wave of emotions that left them spell bound.
"It's a great honour for me to be on the Berlin Festival's international jury. After showing "Veer-Zaara", this acknowledges the whole body of my work,'' said Yash Chopra, on being selected to be a part of the esteemed jury of the 56th Berlinale, which is chaired by the well known British actress Charlotte Rampling and also comprises well known names from International Cinema.

Primary muscle hydatidosis of the thigh in a pregnant woman
Abstract number: 1733_43
Degioanni M., Maccabruni A., Bolla C., Montrucchio G., Biglino A.
Introduction: Primary skeletal muscle hydatidosis is a rare manifestation of cystic hydatid disease. We report a case of muscle hydatidosis of the thigh observed in a pregnant woman.
Methods and Results: Our patient is a 30 years old moroccan woman who has been immigrated to Italy for seven years ago. At the fourth month of her third pregnancy she observed a painful swelling of the right thigh, without any other symptoms; an ultrasonographic scan of the thigh showed a noncalcified cystic mass with little round cystic inside in the posterior muscle compartment (diameter 13 cm). After delivery contrast CT and MRI of right thigh were performed showing that the mass had reached 15 cm in diameter. No additional cysts were found on CT of the thorax, abdomen and pelvis. As hydatidosis was strongly suspected, a specific serology was performed with positive result (IHA 1:320). Treatment with albendazole at 400 mg b.i.d. was immediately started; two months after the ultrasonographic scan showed that the primary cyst was smaller while all but one ``daughter'' cysts became smaller and oval, with increased echogenicity. The specific antibody titer (IHA) was 1:80. Surgical resection to remove the cyst ``in toto'' will be the next step of the treatment.
Conclusion: Skeletal muscle hydatid cysts are generally misdiagnosed as either a pyogenic infection or a malignancy. Hydatid disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis of cystic muscular lesions and specific serology has to be performed because routine diagnostic procedures may not always be helpful. The correct diagnosis at the right time allows a radical cure of the disease

Abstracts published in Epidemiology have been reviewed by the organizations of Epidemiology. Affliate Societies at whose meetings the abstracts have been accepted for presentation. These abstracts have not undergone review by the Editorial Board of Epidemiology.
The IAASTD was an intergovernmental process that focused on the role of agricultural knowledge, science and technology (AKST) in reducing hunger and poverty, improving rural livelihoods and human health, and facilitating environmentally, socially and economically sustainable development. The assessment was published in early 2009.
The IAASTD included a global and five sub-global assessments of the generation, access, dissemination and use of public and private sector AKST, using local, traditional and formal knowledge; existing and emerging technologies, practices, policies and institutions; information needed by decision makers in different civil society, private and public organizations on options for improving policies, practices, institutional and organizational arrangements; and options for future public and private investments in AKST. It brought together a range of stakeholders to share their experiences, views, understanding and vision for the future.
Key findings include that AKST has contributed to substantial increases in agricultural production; people benefited unevenly from these yield increases across regions; emphasis on increasing yields and productivity has in some cases had negative consequences on environmental sustainability; global demographic changes and changing patterns of income distribution over the next 50 years are projected to lead to different patterns of food consumption and increased demand for food; a systematic redirection of AKST towards agroecological strategies is needed to address environmental issues; the generation and delivery of AKST needs to be redirected to address a range of persistent socioeconomic inequities; more determined involvement of women's knowledge, skills and experience is required to advance progress towards sustainability and development goals; many of the challenges facing agriculture over the next 50 years will require more integrated applications of existing science and technology; and some challenges may be resolved only by development and application of new and emerging AKST.

People are thinking a lot about how to monetize "new" media, such as podcasts and blogs. Well, prepare for a game-changing bomb drop right here on AdPulp. What I'm talking about is monetizing old media; namely, me.
Case Study: Gavin
Gavin is a 14-year-old developmentally disabled boy who lives in my neighborhood. For a few bucks, he'll cut my grass, take out the trash, etc. I'm one of Gavin's biggest customers. As a result, we've become friends. Good friends, in fact, because I'm one of the only people who treat Gavin like "one of the guys." He loves dirty jokes (or, as he says, "dirty yokes"). So he's always pestering me for yokes, and I'm happy to deliver. After all, it's every teenager's right to be corrupted.
Well, yesterday, Gavin became a customer of mine. From now on, he has to watch a 15-second spot before he can get a yoke. For example, this morning he watched this beautiful Nike ad on my iPod in exchange for a particularly rude yoke about a woman who loves horses.
At the end of the month, my Nike rep—a totally cool woman named Jenni, who totally "gets it"—will send me a check based on the number of impressions I've delivered.
Next Steps
I'm considering monetizing my relationships with other people who love my content.
My Mom is a very alert, reasonably affluent 74-year-old consumer. And whoever wants to talk to her—P&G, AARP, Kleenex—comes through me.
My niece—OMG, my niece!!—is 13 years old! And a slice of her elusive attention will cost you. But it will be worth it. So here's my unique value proposition to Noxzema, Tampax, MTV: my niece doesn't watch TV; she's not even online that much. But she loves my yokes. And she can learn to love you, too.
For information on how your brand can win the hearts and minds of my friends and family, contact AdPulp, home of the newest old media—ME!
Monetize Me!

Pianist Geri William Says Jazz is Alive, Well and Thriving
Edith Billups | 4/1/2009, 4:41 p.m.
Don€t tell pianist Geri Allen that the younger generation is not interested in jazz. In fact, America€s classical music is thriving says Allen, who will be performing April 2 at the Strathmore Performing Arts Center in Bethesda, MD.
€Just because you don€t hear it on the mainstream media doesn€t mean that young people don€t appreciate jazz. At the University of Michigan, we are seeing a generation of young people who are playing on a high level and are very dedicated to, and are excited about the music. They are incorporating both hip hop and jazz into their worlds.€
The New York Times called Allen €A jazz pianist who follows an unmarked road€ in a recent article. Allen, a Michigan native and mother of three, will perform at the Strathmore as part of its year-long Music in the Mansion series entitled €A Celebration of the Piano: From Bach to Boogie Woogie and Beyond.€ Her concert will feature her own music, as well as works by some of the celebrated pianists who have inspired her.
An associate professor at the University of Michigan, Allen began playing the piano at the age of seven, and has gone on to play with such greats as Betty Carter, Marianne Faithfulll and Ornette Coleman. She played violin, as well growing up, €but I found the piano to be my comfort zone,€ Allen said.
Of today€s younger generation, Allen said, €When I was growing up, we had instruments in school. Music was a big part of your life, socially, as it has a way of helping to build your character.€
€Because of budget cuts, the generation of young people coming up today doesn€t have as many instruments in school, and they use poems and hip hop to express themselves creatively. Public schools should really emphasize music, and music programs should not be the first thing that gets cut.€
€Our [African American] music has always been a powerful force and source of inspiration during difficult times. It also signaled to the world a sense of optimism during overwhelming odds,€ Allen said.
Allen points to musicians like John Coltrane €who played music of a high vibration, playing music that could change the others. If you listen to his €Love Supreme,€ it€s clearly a prayer.€
Allen said that a larger audience would appreciate jazz if the media provided people with more musical options. Allen has served as an artist-in-residence at several colleges and insists that young people have access to her expertise and wisdom.
€Jazz is a language that you can share with other people,€ Allen said. €You are able to communicate with each other and it€s a wonderful affirmation for humanity.€
Allen will perform a part of €Refractions, Flying Toward the Sound€, a piece that awarded her a grant to assist her in her creative efforts from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. The piece celebrates three of the most important pianists, composers and innovators in jazz: Cecil Taylor, McCoy Tyner, and Herbie Hancock. €It [€Refractions, Flying Toward the Sound€] is my point of view of their work and how they inspired me,€ Allen said.

We are out to screw the country, there's no doubt
We are out to screw the country, there's no doubt
If we bring a big disaster we'll get elected so much faster
And our enemy Obama will be out.
There is nothing we wont do to get our way
There is nothing we wont do to get our way
We are betting a depression, will win us the next election
And our corporate cronies promise they will pay!
If you lose your job and house who gives a damn
If you lose your job and house who gives a damn
We're hoping that it makes you madder and you'll vote out Ol' Obamer
And we'll be on top to push the latest scam
We'll protect our corporate Masters, come what may
We'll protect our corporate Masters, come what may
We'll keep their tax breaks bulging cause our mission is indulging
All our corporate buddies, who we must obey
Lower taxes is our permanent refrain
Lower taxes is our permanent refrain
We don't care who might get hurted just as long as we have skirted
Any taxes our contributors disdain.
So sink the economy is what we say
So sink the economy is what we say
The more destruction that we wreak on all the poor and sick and weak
The more we think we'll win the next election day.

Bit healthy for a Feral
Didnt have a collar with a bell on it did it (just had to ask)
No collar
In that case – no issue – moving along
(Just of note my cat and the neighbours' cats all have collars with bells on them)
If he did stick his head in the trap.it would probably improve his looks His ears would no longer stick out like the F.A CUP.,his moustache would be torn off and reveal an alien underneath,or maybe the original doggie in the window,re-invented,or just dumbo the nazi cat killer clown.
Blue collar in both photos actually.
Had this happen to a cat of ours (just his tail luckily) as a child, trapper was putting gin traps behind peoples houses.
Didn't think it was so funny when he came back to find a bunch of people waiting for him…. knuckles seeminly don't like ball pin hammers.
Yeah it does have a collar, that'll learn it for nicking the possum's treats
oh yeah that's some kids pet (see blue collar), good one Garreth.
Agree, this is shameful behavior by someone who endeavors to justify and brag of their actions under the guise of obeying Gareth.
How do you know it was a kids pet? I don't see "I belong to a child" on the collar.
More likely to be part of some crazy cat ladies curation, honestly speaking
Free Cat ?
Free cat, doesn't eat much ?
or go out…..
That blue thing round it's neck kinda does look like a flea collar…
Definitely a collar on that cat.
It has a blue collar
you don`t expect a right wing white collar moggy to be so friggen dumb?
And yes, that cat is wearing a collar. Someones pet now dead.
It was stealing a possum's treats.
Great traps, quick humane kill. Perfect for the job. Good for lifestyle blocks but the size & shape makes them not practical for commercial pest control.
Travis you're just a sycophant aka Guppy
I actually know what I'm talking about, worked in the commercial pest control industry. unlike you and probably the rest of the commenters, just another hollow headed outrage fanatic that completely misunderstood and misread my comment.
Also, there is nothing sociopath about a cat intruding someone elses property or outside of its territory and getting caught in a trap, it's the cats problem. Stiff shit.
It's a different story going out of ones way to kill someone elses pet, however this cat committed suicide by way of trespass.
I also wonder what the circumstances were, such as this cat could have been killing chickens etc and probably deservedly got it's comeuppance.
If people have an issue about a dead trespasser, tough luck.
Years ago I had my cat (and the last one I ever had) caught by pest control operators, the trap was set alongside a river which was a significant distance from the house. She came home dragging the leg hold trap on her front foot and ended up losing the leg, just one of those things. Council payed the vet bill, nothing more can be done. Cats will stray, that's reality. Sometimes they get caught in a trap, that's reality too.
What is also reality is the outrage alarmists who see a pic like that and make out like it was somehow an intentional act of killing someones pet.
As I said, they are great traps and do the job very well. If people manage to somehow find that offensive then they're the one with the problem. Maybe I should drag my leg hold traps out of the shed and take some of you into the bush to set up some lines and see the harsh reality of pest control.
Some of you need to grow a brain or at least open your eyes, or maybe even just accept that not everything fits in with your sheltered city lives.
To think I used to respect you, you sick prick. Pet killers are fucking sociopaths
This is revolting.Tacky to post – insensitive and bloody upsetting. Dog lovers – how would you feel if that was your dog?
Harden up, it got away with it the other 8 times.
I can quite clearly see a collar on this cat. Anyone who finds this amusing should check themselves out of the human race quick smart – i'll even pull the trigger.
Spot on ABS. I'm an animal lover full stop. Have cats, have dog and had animals all of my life. The above pics are in appallingly bad taste. Maybe we'll get to see a gutshot deer or a badly mauled pig dog next – not!!
The condition of the coat on that cat is way too good to be a feral or a colony cat. It's someone's much loved pet FFS that some unthinking wanker has taken it upon himself to kill. That he's taken it upon himself to photograph it is the sicker part – obviously needs to spend some time on a couch.
Come off it Gaz, the examples you gave suggested maltreatment or inhumane killing. The cat was killed humanely. Don't beat it up into something it's not Nor did the person go out of their way to kill "someone's much loved pet FFS that some unthinking wanker has taken it upon himself to kill" as you put it. Cat wasn't the target species, it was just collateral damage. It happens, read my post below.
Maybe he didn't kill it on purpose Trav but he was obviously pleased enough with himself to photograph it and send it in on the Tipline for our titillation & entertainment. The examples of a gutshot deer and a mauled pigdog are not of intentional maltreatment but an all too common occurrence with careless or novice hunters.
You'd kill a human being for the sake of a dead cat? Serious over-reaction.
Just a little bit. No sack of fleas is worth a human life.
What kind of two-bit, inbred tosser do you have to be to find this funny? Fuck off.
Is that your trap?
looks more like adead cat put in trap
bar is not on neck
