Peach, Cinnamon, Butter and Cane sugar with more cane sugar on top of the peach! The dough was a freestyled dough with no measuring I did it all by feel which I do allot of, because I get a kick out of knowing when it's right, only difference from my normal freestyled dough was two extra sugar lumps and corn oil instead of olive oil. The corn oil, is french, very mild but a nice hint of sweet coming through which makes it nice for this dessert pizza and for regular savory pizza also.Anywho, baked at 500f for ten minutes then a minute under the broiler (which isn't turned on, but does chuck out a lot of heat when the ovens been on a while)

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (July 5, 2008) – The U.S. men's team of Joey Dykstra (Hermosa Beach, Calif./USC) and Mark Van Zwieten (Pompano Beach, Fla./Florida Atlantic) will play for a bronze medal on Sunday at the World University Championship for beach volleyball in Hamburg, Germany.
Dykstra and Van Zwieten, ranked third, will face the Czech Republic team of Milan Monik and Filip Habr, ranked 22nd in the third-place match.
Dykstra and Van Zwieten opened the day on Saturday by defeating compatriots Clint Coe (Long Beach, Calif./Long Beach State) and Duncan Budinger (Encinitas, Calif./Long Beach State), seeded 23rd, in a 50-minute battle, 12-21, 22-20, 15-9.
However, Dykstra and Van Zwieten suffered their first loss of the tournament in the semifinals as they fell to Ukraine's Andriy Kutsmus and Oleksiy Klyamar, ranked 27th, 17-21, 18-21.
Coe and Budinger will finish the tournament in fifth place after losing to Spain's Jose Manuel Ariza Molina and De Amo Fernandez Echeverria, 17-21, 21-15, 15-10 in 58 minutes in the consolation bracket. Molina and Echeverria will play for the gold medal against Kutsmus and Klyamar on Sunday.
The two U.S. women's teams were eliminated from the tournament on Friday. Lauren Fendrick (Carlsbad, Calif./UCLA) and Keegan Featherstone (Manhattan Beach, Calif./UC Irvine) finished 13th and Olivia Waldowski (Irvine, Calif./UC Santa Barbara) and Kari Pestolesi (Huntington Beach, Calif./UC Irvine) placed 17th.

Prepare for Retribution.
Before the so-called "New Wave of American Heavy Metal" was even a ripple, Shadows Fall were there. Emerging from Springfield, Massachusetts in 1995, this D.I.Y. band ultimately found legions of fans, worldwide fame, two Grammy nominations, and even a song on Guitar Hero. Of course, none of this came from luck. Instead, hard work and musical innovation have been the forces propelling Shadows Fall, continually revealing ever more of this band's greatness. They are beyond simply best-in-class; in so many ways, Shadows Fall - with their unmistakable, seamless blend of metal and hard rock - have grown to help define the very essence of modern aggressive music.
With Retribution - the band's fifth full length and follow-up to 2007's critically acclaimed Threads of Life - it's no surprise to find Shadows Fall once again taking bold steps in their quest for constant evolution. It starts, of course, with the guts of Retribution - the sound. "With each album we've gotten a little more confidence to really let all of our influences show," says vocalist Brian Fair. "We're unapologetic about the old-school metal and the 80s influence, as well as the thrash and the melodic death metal." And Retribution - with music production by Zeuss (Hatebreed, Municipal Waste) and vocal production by Elvis Baskette (Incubus, Alter Bridge) - surely has that thrash-metal bedrock which has long served as the foundation of Shadows Fall - but there's more. "We've really taken some songs all the way," explains Fair. "The brutal parts are a complete, non-stop assault, and the rock-influenced songs go all the way within that rock direction. A song like �Picture Perfect' - the chorus is more Journey or Def Leppard than it is death metal," laughs Fair. "There's really no holding back when it comes to our songwriting. Once the floodgates open, we go all the way." The result is Retribution - a collection of songs that showcase the versatility and vision of this band that only seems to get better over time.
But the evolution of Shadows Fall is not limited to their music. Atop the shifting grounds of an unpredictable music industry, they've found even more opportunity to try new ideas. "We learned everything from the ground up," says Fair, reflecting on more than a decade of experience and lessons learned. "We've gone through the independent metal world to the major label world, and have come to realize that, given the way things are now, it's all about the band re-taking the control of everything: music, business, ownership, publishing. Everything."
In taking that control, Shadows Fall knew they would need strong partners. "We wanted people who understood where we come from," says Fair. They found just that, in the team of Ferret Music and Independent Label Group. "We see it as the Justice League of Metal," says Fair. "Ferret was started by guys who were in hardcore bands - who did it all the hard way, themselves. Having someone like that in your corner is just huge. And with Independent Label Group, you have a major label distributor that can kick open some doors, but the people who are doing the every-day work understand the DIY approach we have always taken. So the whole way that we're handling this is super exciting. We get the best of both worlds."
True brilliance doesn't just navigate change - it anticipates, adapts, and turns it into opportunity. This is so much of what separates Shadows Fall from so many other bands: a work ethic as forward-thinking as their musical instinct. Strong, savvy self-determinism shoring up a distinctive mix of bone-splintering aggression and melodic nuance.
It's Retribution from Shadows Fall. It's not to be missed.

Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Progressive Conservative
Greg Thompson Charlotte, NB
Mr. Speaker, I am glad to hear that and I appreciate that coming from the minister.
The question today, and we have been pounding away on this for weeks and weeks, concerns compensation for those hepatitis C victims before and after the years 1986 to 1990.
I ask the minister, where are those negotiations leading? Has the minister accepted the fact that all victims should be compensated?
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Etobicoke Centre
Allan Rock Minister of Health
Mr. Speaker, the Government of Canada continues to believe that it is in the interests of all of those who contracted hepatitis C through the blood system that there be a national approach to this issue. That is why we are taking part in and leading a working group which is already under way, looking at options available to governments to deal with the interests of all of those who got hepatitis C through the blood system.
As soon as that work is concluded and governments have a position I shall report it to the House.
Science, Research And Development
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Reg Alcock Winnipeg South, MB
Mr. Speaker, research and development is vital to a healthy and prosperous economy.
Would the Secretary of State for Science, Research and Development please tell the House what the government is doing to foster world class scientific research in western Canada?
Science, Research And Development
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Saint Boniface
Ronald J. Duhamel Secretary of State (Science
Mr. Speaker, science, research and development continue to be priorities of the Western Economic Diversification.
There have been a number of important announcements, the most recent in Winnipeg, Manitoba on Friday, where it was announced that $2.1 million will be provided to fund a centre on expertise for the aging. It will be at the forefront of research in this area. It will address certain diseases such as Alzheimer and certain cardiovascular problems associated with aging.
The best news of all is, not only will it be at the forefront in the world, it will create 100 good jobs for western Canadians.
Transitional Jobs Fund
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Rob Anders Calgary West, AB
Mr. Speaker, how is this for a job buying fiasco? In October last year human resources development spent a cool $1 million of taxpayers' money from the transitional jobs fund for BPS Imaging, a call centre in Newfoundland. Now, a mere seven months later, BPS has closed its doors and 124 people are out of work.
Why did the minister not secure the funds with BPS assets or put the money into job training that actually works?
Transitional Jobs Fund
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Pierre Pettigrew Minister of Human Resources Development
Mr. Speaker, I will look into the particular case that the opposition member is raising.
However, what I can tell him is that on every project involving the transitional jobs fund there is a lot of consultation with the provincial governments. We look at every one of them in a very serious fashion.
With $300 million the government has created thousands of very good jobs in Newfoundland and in the rest of Canada.
Canadian Armed Forces
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
Pierrette Venne Saint-Bruno—Saint-Hubert, QC
Mr. Speaker, day after day, we hear stories of women in the Canadian armed forces who were raped, sexually mistreated or sexually harassed.
The response of the Minister of National Defence is as follows, and I quote "I have no statistical information that would indicate that the problem is more serious in the armed forces than in the rest of Canadian society".
Are we to understand from this irresponsible statement that the minister views rape, sexual mistreatment and sexual harassment in the armed forces as acceptable, as long as they stay within the national average?
Canadian Armed Forces
Oral Question Period
2:50 p.m.
York Centre
Art Eggleton Minister of National Defence
Mr. Speaker, I indicated that I had no statistical information which would indicate that it is any worse than in Canadian society.
I would also say that it runs against the core values of Canadians and of the vast majority of the men and women in our Canadian forces.
What the hon. member does not seem to have heard is that I also said that what I read in those articles with respect to that kind of conduct, behaviour and attitude is disgusting. That kind of behaviour is not going to be allowed in the Canadian forces. We have taken action and will continue to take action.
Oral Question Period
May 25th, 1998 / 2:50 p.m.
Svend Robinson Burnaby—Douglas, BC
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans.
I want to say that we welcome the important steps taken by the minister to save B.C.'s endangered coho salmon last week.
Will the minister tell the House what new steps he is taking to get a treaty that stops Alaskans from fishing our coho while B.C. fishers stand by?
When will the minister respond to the important recommendations of the Copes commission on fisheries renewal and saving our threatened small boat fleet and coastal communities?
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
David Anderson Minister of Fisheries and Oceans
Mr. Speaker, on the question of the discussions with the Government of Alaska and the Government of the United States of America, last Thursday I requested that the Canadian negotiator, Dr. Donald McRae, get in touch with his American counterpart to pass on the information with respect to the coho conservation plans of Canada.
On Friday I had a discussion with the governor of Alaska. We agreed that we would resume the negotiations between the United States and Canada this week, and I believe that will be on Thursday in Juneau.
Hepatitis C
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
Progressive Conservative
André Bachand Richmond—Arthabaska, QC
Mr. Speaker, for weeks, not to say months, the opposition has been urging the Minister of Health to compensate all hepatitis C victims.
The minister has even said that compensating all victims fairly would lead to the collapse of Canada's health system.
How can he say such a thing when the exact number of hepatitis C victims is not even known right now? What is he doing to find a solution for these victims, when their numbers and the associated compensation figures are not even known?
Hepatitis C
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
Etobicoke Centre
Allan Rock Minister of Health
Mr. Speaker, these are the very questions now before the task force set up ten days ago by the federal and provincial governments.
The task force has already begun its work. We expect results to be available shortly. I advise the hon. member to wait for the results of the task force's work, at which time its conclusions can be examined.
The Economy
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
Karen Redman Kitchener Centre, ON
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Finance.
There has been a great deal of suffering felt by thousands in Asia as a result of the recent economic crisis. This weekend Canada hosted the Asia-Pacific finance ministers. Can the minister tell us what action will be taken to address the human and social impact of this crisis?
The Economy
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
Paul Martin Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, in situations of economic crisis such as occurred in Indonesia and other Asian countries the IMF must move very quickly in order to recreate confidence in capital markets.
The hon. member is very justified in pointing out that the real cost is borne by individual populations, by women and by children who are forced to drop out of school. As a result of that Canada took a very strong position at the APEC meeting that the World Bank must move in parallel with the IMF in order to directly alleviate the suffering that is being felt.
I am glad to say that the president of the World Bank was there. He also spoke to the same position. The vast majority of finance ministers supported it. I take the hon. member's question as support from this House for that position.
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
Gary Lunn Saanich—Gulf Islands, BC
Mr. Speaker, this government has failed the people of B.C. during the last five years by its inability to resolve the Pacific salmon dispute. Unless the minister is ready to put some teeth into this we will never get it resolved.
Is the minister prepared to take some actions against the U.S. fishermen and prevent U.S. fishing vessels from crossing into Canadian waters until this dispute is resolved?

U.S. Economy According to Carlyle Group
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- With the shutdown of the federal government crimping the release of crucial economic data such as monthly employment reports from the Bureau of Labor Statistics , private equity giant The Carlyle Group
Carlyle Group released what it calls proprietary economic indicators that the firm calculates from its holdings around the world. It appears to be both a veiled protest against Washington's dysfunction and a significant marketing opportunity for the firm and the wider private equity industry.
The economy, in Carlyle's view, grew at an annualized rate of 1.7% in the third quarter as consumer prices rose 1.5% year-over-year. Carlyle's GDP estimate, however, is based on the total number of cargo containers "lifted" on or off rail cars at more than 50 facilities across the U.S. and Mexico. Those shipments and trade volumes have had an 80.2% correlation with U.S. real GDP over the past 93 months, according to the private equity firm.
Retail sales were up 0.25% in September, Carlyle said, using data it gleaned from a single appliance company. Residential housing starts grew at an annualized rate of 913,000, Carlyle said, citing lumber sales to homebuilders made by a U.S.-based Carlyle portfolio company. That data has a 94% correlation with housing starts over the past 94 months, Carlyle said.
Durable goods orders were $68.6 billion in September, Carlyle said, citing telecommunications orders received by one of the firm's portfolio companies.
Those data points are generally in line with the economic trends exhibited in recent months. Inflation is still below the Federal Reserve's targeted 2% rate, while GDP growth remains below what would be needed to materially move the unemployment rate lower.
While Carlyle's data is unlikely to move markets or change investors perceptions on the economy - and should only be taken as an anecdotal read on the economy -- it may indicate a growing unrest among America's most prominent businesses with the government shutdown and looming federal debt ceiling.
In September, Carlyle co-founder David Rubenstein said at a Dow Jones private equity conference that he expected a government shutdown would last a few days and that a U.S. debt default would be averted, albeit in a way that wouldn't make the average voter proud of their government.
Rubenstein, who is player in political circles as president of the Economic Club of Washington D.C., appears to have underestimated Washington's dysfunction.
Other prominent CEOs have been making public statements against the government shutdown and a possible debt default.

Event Details: Neuroscience Lecture Series: Robert E. Burke, M.D. | Reconstruction of the Adult Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic Pathway: A New Approach to the treatment of Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, progressive neurologic disorder that causes impairment of movement. Available treatments for PD offer relief of symptoms, but none are able to restore the neural structures that have degenerated. Neuroscientists have long believed that surviving mature neurons in the brain are incapable of new axon growth. However, there is emerging evidence that this belief is not true, that surviving neurons may be induced to re-grow axons by re-activation of molecular processes that are active during normal brain development. Our research explores gene therapy approaches to re-activation of these axon growth processes. The motor impairments in PD are due to the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons and their axons. We have investigated the ability of two genes that are active in axon growth during development: a kinase Akt and one of its downstream targets, the GTPase hRheb. We have found that both Akt and hRheb, when expressed in dopamine neurons by use of a viral vector, induce robust new axon growth and achieve partial restoration of function. At the time of first diagnosis of PD, 70% of the neurons of the substantia nigra still survive. If they can be induced to re-grow their axons, and re-establish their ability to release dopamine, it may be possible to offer substantial neurorestoration with clinical benefit. The promise of this approach is that this benefit will be achieved by endogenous dopamine neurons, in their normal locations, with intact connections and with normal regulatory mechanisms in place.

Spring Trends and How to Wear 'Em: 2012
Wednesday, March 14, 2012
It's that time again! Time when I sift through all of the stuff that magazines say "YOU MUST HAVE" to bring you the most wearable trends available. Some are so not wearable at all. One I saw was colored camo. Really? We're doing colored camo now? That might work in the city, but I live where people actually go hunting and I Would be laughed at if I showed up in puprle camo. So I'll leave that one to the city slickers. I kid you not, the other day I drove behind a truck with a big old dead deer in the back and every time they turned a corner I'd see it roll around. It was So. Gross. Sometimes I think I'll never get used to living here.
But all dead deer aside, there are some seriously cute trends going on this spring that you -- yes, even you who wears sweatpants to WalMart -- can try to look like you know stuff about fashion. I *love* knowing stuff.
OK, time for my usual disclaimer here. As usual, remember that trends are trendy. That means you really don't need to go crazy with them. See what's new and pick a few things that you want to try for yourself on the cheap. That way, if yo don't like it, you haven't spent major moolah on stuff you'll never wear again. And please, don't wear these all at once. You'll look crazy. Crazy like a person with a dead deer in your truck.
Shall we?
1) Orange!
Orange is THE color du jour and I kind of love it. Remember when everything was all about mustard in the fall? It's now all about super bright orange. The color you want almost looks like it's been mixed with coral. You're going to see a lot of coral and orange in this post because it's gonna be big. Just make sure that when you wear orange, you steer clear of black. It's not Halloween. I like it with navy and white as neutrals. PS I must have striped wedges this year. MUST.
2) Peplum Dresses
3) Exaggerated Prints
Yaaaay it's maxi dress season again! I am so excited to drag them all out again. But this year, it's all about exaggerated prints. We're look for huge graphics, bold colors and prints that look like a magnifying glass has been zeroed in on a piece of material. This goes for just about everything -- skirts, tops, cardigans, whatever. Just look for non-boring patterns. Last year it was all about vintage-y, scattered prints, but this year, the bolder the better. You can still wear your solid maxis though. I absolutely will be doing the same thing.
4) Pastels
Blazer, £28
Hollister Co. faded jeans, $50
Call it SPRING ballerina flat, $40
Beige handbag, £15
Stone jewelry, $17
Spring means pastels, but they don't have to be Easter egg colors. This tank, with the brighter pastels makes me die inside. When you want to try pastels, make it look as crisp as possible. I love them with a white blazer or cardigan and a dark wash denim. That way, the look isn't wishy washy Laura Ashley. Finally, always add in a harder-edged element. A chained bag makes this look less like Easter Sunday and more everyday cuteness.
5) Color Blocking
Hollister Co. skinny leg jeans, $50
Flat heels, $36
Faux leather handbag, $48
Mango silk shawl, £15
ASOS skinny belt, $11
If you've never heard of color blocking, you've probably never been on Pinterest. Seriously, this it ALL of what's over there. Color blocking means putting large pieces of solid color against each other. But some people can look like crazyperson clowns when color blocking, so here's a more tame version. I'm all about color blocking in accessories. The shoes and scarf hit the trend without it looking crazy. Now, a seasoned blocker would put this outfit with like, green skinnies. But that's super advanced. A dark wash denim tones down the whole outfit. Then, add a neutral bag to anchor everything and you can wear super bright colors without looking like your 5 year old picked out your outfit.
OK, those are my top five for the season. Now I feel like I need to rush off to the store for some turquoise flats and a lemon yellow belt, but that will have to wait. I have a very important schedule of cleaning my house on tap today. Fashion must take a backseat to the small mountain of pistachio shells currently residing on my desk. They're grossing me out.
So spill: which trend are you most excited to try this spring?

Opinion from Japan: Chill out, The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge Wasn't a "Wash"
The following are the views of Contributor Shannon Saruwatashi and are not necessarily though they could be somewhat parallel or at least tangential to our views maybe. Actually, we don't think op-ed pieces need a trigger warning, we just wanted to make fun of trigger warnings, which may or may not be how we really feel.

During battles, up to six Warriors can compete with one Pokémon each. The player has to consider which Pokémon to choose based on their type or specialty. If an Army meets the victory conditions, such as defeating all of the opponent's Pokémon, the winner gains the opponent's Castle!
Battle with Pokémon!
When a battle begins, victory conditions such as defeating all of the opponent's Pokémon or taking all the flags is displayed. Warlords from your Army and the enemy Army call their Pokémon and take turns making moves. The first Army to meet the victory conditions wins!
A Warlord's Pokémon are arranged into groups.
Victory conditions differ depending on the location of the battle.
New Battles with Familiar Traits!
When it's your turn, you can move a Pokémon, use a Pokémon's skill, use a Warlord Skill, or use a tool. When you've moved all your Pokémon, your turn ends and the opponent gets to move.
Some Pokémon can move farther than others in a turn. Flying Pokémon can fly over obstacles!
Attacks are made using moves. The amount of damage can vary greatly depending on the moves and the opposing Pokémon type.
You can give Warlords many different items to use. There are many varieties of items, such as potions.
Look for money or items in Treasure Boxes, which appear on the battlefield or are dropped by defeated Pokémon.
Warlords Battle, Too!
Each Warlord has one Warlord Skill, which can have a wide range of effects to aid you in battle.
For example, one Warlord Skill helps Pokémon move further for a short time.
Watch Out for Enemy attacks!
You have to prepare to defend when it's your opponent's turn! For example, you might put your Pokémon in strategic positions to prevent your opponent from capturing a flag.
If you're within an enemy Pokémon's movement range you could be attacked on the next turn!
Range differs depending on the skill. The movement range plus the skill range gives the range of possible attack.

WOAH. At you'll have fun drinking a lot of good stuff, it seems. And that's a lot of pue'rh ;)
I started adding 2 mugs of pu-erh to my morning routine, on the advice from some women who frequent my local tea shop. As of last week I had lost 6 lbs without doing anything else. So I go through A LOT of pu-erh, especially since I always use 3 perfect teaspoons for 1 mug.
That sounds great! I need some magic weight loss tea, but the last time I had puerh, it tasted like clumps of dirt, even after I rinsed it.
Those flavored ones might work! Then I could see if 12 oz of puerh tea a say makes a difference. #forscience
I had no idea puerh can do that! That's really neat. Happy drinking! :]
Cavocorax There are still some flavoured ones that are earthy & or fishy. Good ole' pu-erh. All the ones I have ordered on those 2 order in large quantities, don't have that property to them.
I'm tempted to give it a shot while they are on sale – maybe I'll luck out! How many cups do you get out of the samples?
With the amount of leaves I use only 2. But like I said I use 3 perfect teaspoons. So someone who uses only 1, would get 6 cups.
Excellent! Thanks. Also, I'm a little scared to imagine how strong 3 teaspoons of puerh would taste! :P (I just resteeped mine – that's sorta the same without the punch to the mouth?)
haha yes, there are a few I've had to use less leaves with.
So I lied, that DAVIDs order did break my hiatus. Forgot about the Lime Gelato, but technically I wouldn't have bought it had I not needed to me the $50 for free shipping.
Your order inspired mine. I figured pu'erh could be classified as necessary health-stuffs and picked out 12 different samples!
bahaha AMAZING!
Forgot to put this here…
From Teavivre:
Exquisite Glass Gongfu Teapot 200 ml / 6.8 oz
5 Featured Pu-erh Teas Assortment Samples
Samples of Yun Nan Dian Hong Black Tea – Golden Tip and Bi Luo Chun Green Tea (Pi Lo Chun)
I just ordered Good Morning Sunshine and The Killer's Vanilla from Butiki! I'm very excited.
I've never had it before, what is it like?
A little grassy but not in a bad way. I've only had the Good Morning Sunshine but I think the guayusa flavor goes really well with the citrus!
Awesome, I love the grassy taste!

Dancing with the Stars returns for its 17th season Monday, after going through an overhaul this summer. In an attempt to curb the show's steadily declining ratings,Dancing has made a number of changes for the new season, including returning to a single-night format.
"Obviously it's always very challenging in ratings terms when shows mature," executive producer Conrad Green tells TVGuide.com. "I think the key is, you do need to keep innovating. You do need to keep trying new things."

Nvidia is re-launching its Titanium moniker introduced about ten years ago with the release of the GeForce GTX 560 Ti graphics card aimed at the performance mainstream market. The novelty brings new levels of performance to sub-$249 segment and manages to rival more expensive Radeon HD 6950 in certain cases.
Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti graphics card is based on the GF114 graphics processing unit (GPU), an improved version of the GF104 made using 40nm fabrication process with reduced power consumption and improved layout, which allowed to activate all compute elements as well as run the chip at higher clock-speeds. The model GTX 560 Ti has 384 stream processing units. 64 texture units, 32 render back ends, 8 tessellation engines and well as 256-bit memory controller. Nvidia clocks the GF114 chip of 560 Ti at 822MHz and its stream processors operate at 1644MHz. The designer recommends partners to install 1GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 4008MHz onto the GeForce GTX 560 Ti graphics cards.
The novelty fully supports DirectX 11, OpenGL 4, OpenCL 1 as well as all the modern functionality, including hardware decoding of high-definition stereo-3D video and so on. In addition, the novelty supports Nvidia-exclusive features, such as CUDA-exclusive GPGPU software, PhysX and proprietary 3DVision stereo-3D feature.
"The GTX 560 Ti GPU has it all: awesome DX11 performance, terrific overclockability, and ultra quiet operation - attributes of the perfect performance GPU. With the GTX 560 Ti under the hood, and an awesome library of DX11 titles coming in the very short future, it is truly a great time to be a PC gamer," said Drew Henry, general manager of GeForce GPU business at Nvidia.
The Titanium moniker of the graphics card should emphasize very high performance potential of the novelty as well as its future-proof DirectX 11 architecture. Obviously, the Ti moniker will naturally attract attention (and bring back the memories as well as nostalgia) of those, who remember the GeForce 3 Titanium and GeForce 2 Titanium released in 2001 as well as GeForce 4 Titanium launched in early 2002.
With an estimated selling e-tail price starting at $249, the GTX 560 Ti is available now from the add-in card partners, including ASL, Asustek Computer, Colorful, ECS, EVGA, Gainward, Galaxy, Gigabyte, Innovision 3D, Jetway, Leadtek, MSI, Palit, Point of View, PNY, Sparkle, Zotac and others. At launch, there will be a wide assortment of GTX 560 Ti cards available, including those with stock clocks of 822MHz and others that are clocked much higher, including some at 1GHz.

Customer Reviews:
Rated 4 out of 5�by 3 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5�by CuppaJoe Happy Runner I'm a simple runner and while this has a number of excellent features I am very satisfied with the comfort and confidence of accurate timing during Ultras. November 24, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by Zmey Bought this one for the second time Good: The watch is great for interval training: Can store up to 9 different intervals [with an alarm going off at the end of each interval]. That's the primary purpose for the watch for me. Bad: I exchanged the battery on my last Ironman at a jeweliers store and the watch lost its water resistance as a result. During running sessions, humidity tends to accumulate inside that one rendering the screen useless. I figure, if the jewelier shop had send the watch to a workshop rather than exchanged the battery on the spot, this might have been avoided. May 14, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5�by Jim Excellent watch. Excellent watch. Great for tracking and reviewing splits. Also does interval timing which is great fot tabata work-outs. Has multiple alarms as well. Only negative is that the rubber that holds the excess strap in place moves off the strap occassionally. April 23, 2012

Did you know…?
> The "Holiday Motel–Hotel" opened in 1952, one month before the world's first Holiday Inn. "H" and "M" flashed alternately on its neon sign to render the full name. Years later, either the "H" broke or the owners opted to go with "Motel."
> Taken over by well-meaning musicians in June 2007, it became "The Holiday Music Motel." Then, after only six weeks open to the public, a devastating electrical fire closed its doors for nearly two years.
> Lovingly "retrovated" by the same well-meaning bunch, it reopened in 2009 (with all the latest safety systems) and immediately struck a chord with musicians and tourists alike, becoming one of Door County's top ranked hotels.
> During annual songwriting festivals, over a thousand song have been collaboratively written and recorded onsite.
> An unusual amenity: All rooms are wired for potential hookup to the onsite recording studio.
> HMM's board president is a recording engineer, the motel manager plays electric cello, and the creative director is a hit songwriter who plays cigar box guitar.

July 18, 2011 WIC Update
SUBJECT 1: World Breastfeeding Week Promotion
SUBJECT 2: WIC Invoicing System Webinars
SUBJECT 3: E Cigarettes
SUBJECT 4: WIC Approved Food Lists
SUBJECT 5: WIC Help Desk Meetings
- World Breastfeeding Week Promotion: August 1-7 is designated each year as World Breastfeeding Week by the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) and the entire month of August is designated Missouri Breastfeeding Month. The theme for this year is "Talk to Me, Support Me!" The objective of this year's theme is to draw attention to how communication is an essential part in protecting, promoting and supporting breastfeeding. Since support from families and friends is crucial in mothers meeting their breastfeeding goals, we have created educational posters targeting fathers, grandmothers and friends.
Attached are copies of the theme's logo and sample posters that will be available in the DHSS warehouse. Once they are available, information on how to order will be provided in the WIC Updates. For additional ideas for World Breastfeeding Week, please see the attached suggested promotion activities from the National WIC Association. If you have any questions, please contact Kathy Mertzlufft by email at email@example.com or by phone at 573-526-4792. (FIVE ATTACHMENTS)
- WIC Invoicing System Webinars: New training webinars have been developed for LWP WIC Invoice users to learn step-by-step procedures to submit the WIC Invoice. There are 20 brief, separate webinar modules that give in-depth instructions for completing the monthly WIC Invoice and each accompanying worksheet A-E, the Special Fundings, the ACR, and the Budget Adjustment. You may view one module or all webinar modules at your convenience. The webinars may be found online.
Click the link for the section you would like to view.
We welcome suggestions to improve the webinars. Please contact Laura Weiler, 573-526-7901 or email at email@example.com.
E Cigarettes: Local WIC Providers have asked questions about e cigarettes. This is an emerging issue for which there is no policy guidance. Electronic cigarettes are promoted as an aid to quit smoking and a tobacco alternative for "smoking pleasure". They do contain nicotine and are not without risk to WIC participants. They are not FDA approved.
- How should the use of e cigarettes be documented in MOWINS?
- If the participant reports not smoking traditional cigarettes, enter her into MOWINS as non-smoking and do not assign the risk factor.
- If the participant reports e cigarette usage to you, do not enter as smoking and do not enter a number of cigarettes per day, however, provide appropriate counseling and referrals.
- What type of nutrition education/referrals should be provided?
- Provide counseling regarding substance use and its effect on the WIC participant and family members.
- Refer prenatals and breastfeeding women using e cigarettes to their physician.
- What are Missouri WIC and USDA doing to address this issue?
- USDA Food and Nutrition Service discussed e cigarettes and the potential application for WIC nutrition risk criterion #371, Maternal Smoking, at their July 14, 2011 conference call. They plan to issue a formal response to guide state agencies.
- State WIC will share information from USDA and update Missouri policies accordingly.
For more information:
- view a 3 minute video
- review the attachment ACOG Committee Opinion: Smoking Cessation During Pregnancy
- review the attachment Electronic Cigarettes Q & A
Please contact your assigned technical assistance nutritionist if you have questions. (TWO ATTACHMENTS)
- WIC Approved Food Lists: The followings are updates on the WIC Approved Food Lists.
- Attached are new WIC approved food lists in different languages in PDF.
- "What's New?" - A summary of changes between old food lists & new food lists.
If you have any suggestions/questions, please feel free to contact Takako Tagami at email@example.com. (NINE ATTACHMENTS)
- WIC Help Desk Meetings: This is a reminder of the WIC Help Desk Meetings that take place once per month. These meetings will be held on Fridays from 8:15 am to 10:15 am. There will be no Help Desk Coverage during this time. We chose these hours because some local agencies are not open on Fridays and there are not usually many calls. Although staff will not be available during these hours, feel free to leave a message and all calls will be returned as soon as possible. You may also send an email to the WIC MOWINS Help Desk at firstname.lastname@example.com. The next Help Desk meeting is scheduled for Friday, July 22nd. The meeting dates for the next three months are August 19th, September 23rd, and October 21st. The purpose of these meetings is to review processes and procedures in order to provide the highest quality customer service to local agencies and WIC participants.
If you have questions, please contact the Melissa Seaver at 800-554-2544 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

– Previously: MIMS 2013, Part 1: A perfect storm
Last month I crewed for Swim Smooth founder Paul Newsome on his victorious Manhattan Island Marathon Swim. Though we had not met in person, Paul read my 2011 MIMS report and felt I could assist him in navigating the twists, turns, and tricky currents of the rivers around Manhattan.
It was a great honor and pleasure to meet and spend the weekend with Paul, his business partner Adam, his paddler Amanda, and all the rest of the Perth squad. They treated me very well, and I left New York City with a swirling headful of inspiring memories and new friendships.
I'll defer to Paul's story of his own swim. Instead, these are more general reflections on the experience of seeing MIMS from on the water – quite different, naturally, than being in the water.
"Expect the unexpected."
A well-worn chestnut of open water swimming, of which MIMS 2013 often reminded us. The day before the race, the Daily News of Open Water Swimming reported on the apparent female domination of MIMS, proclaiming one the "overwhelming favorite." Instead, men swept the podium, 1-2-3.
Ignore the chaos in the East River – it means nothing. Shut up and swim.
All sorts of odd stuff happens in the East River. At one point, 9th-place finisher John Hughes found a current and was actually leading the field. He ended up 50 minutes behind Paul. Typically, swimmers are in the East River somewhere between 90 minutes and 2 hours, out of a 7.5-to-10 hour race. Nobody wins MIMS in the East River – or loses it. So forget about the race and conserve your energy – both physical and mental. You'll need it later.
Train for the worst case scenario.
The "observed qualifying swim" for MIMS 2013 was 4 hours at a water temp of 61F. Why 61F? Because historically in early June, the water in the NYC region could be in the low 60s. Are you prepared for 7-8-9 hours at 61F? The fact that two swimmers were pulled for hypothermia less than 2 hours into the race indicates that some were simply not prepared.
"A grim patch."
Memorable words spoken by fellow boat crew Adam via marine radio to paddler Amanda, instructing her to move Paul around a certain spot in the Harlem River. Probably for naught – it was all pretty grim. Paul was sick for two weeks afterward.
The importance of good pilots.
There are meaningful differences among boat pilots, in knowledge, skill, and frankly, how much they care. If you're trying to win MIMS, these differences matter. For the sightseers, I suppose, it matters less.
Moreover, in MIMS, there are actually two pilots. The boat pilot and the kayaker. This contrasts with a channel swim in the open ocean, where the boat can set a consistent course that the kayaker mirrors. In the crowded waterways of Manhattan, the boat is more of a roving escort and cannot always set the course. In which case, the swimmer depends on the kayaker to set the course – either based on his/her own local knowledge, or via communication from the boat.
Pay attention to the tide cycles.
When Paul was approaching Spuyten Duyvil and the Hudson River entrance, we were confronted with a choice: Cut the corner and stay close to the Manhattan shoreline, or head straight out into the river? At the time, Paul was leading Lochie Hinds by 400-500m, but this lead could vanish quickly with the wrong navigational choice.
Typically, the Hudson is fairly slack when the leaders reach it, and it's best to stay close to shore and gradually move out toward the east stanchion of the GW Bridge. But because of the late start, we reasoned that the Hudson might already be moving, with a faster current out in the middle.
At Spuyten Duyvil, we motored ahead of Paul and Amanda to scout the currents. Indeed, there was a visible back-eddy along the shoreline, and we measured a 3+ knot current further out. We radioed back to Amanda to bring Paul straight out into the river.
His lead was preserved.
Shit happens.
No, I'm not talking about the "grim patch" in the Harlem. I'm talking about cruise ships.
A giant one pulled out into the Hudson at Midtown, right in the middle of the race. Fortunately, Paul was already past it. For a brief moment we thought our challenger (Lochie) would get stopped, effectively ending the race. But the ship took its time starting up and Lochie got past. The swimmers right behind Lochie (Ceinwen and Bill) did get stopped. I am not sure if the final order of finish was affected. It's not fair, but that's life in crowded urban waterways. Small swimmers and big ships.
[Cruise ship pulls into the Hudson]
In the end, MIMS is won by the fastest swimmer who is also sufficiently prepared.
There were four swimmers in the MIMS 2013 field of roughly similar pure pool-swimming speed: Paul, Lochie, and the two who got pulled for hypothermia early on. One of these four was almost certain to win. Two of them, evidently, were not sufficiently prepared. Which left Paul and Lochie. They each took nearly-identical lines around the island. So Paul beat Lochie because he was able to swim faster, for longer. Simple as that.
MIMS success has nothing to do with being female, or being Australian. Shelley Taylor-Smith won MIMS five times because she was a professional marathon swimmer competing against (for the most part) Masters swimmers. She was simply a better swimmer.
MIMS is won by the fastest swimmer who is also sufficiently prepared. On June 8th, that was Paul Newsome. A victory for "Swingers" everywhere

Domestic violence killed 122 North Carolinians in 2012
Domestic violence killed 122 North Carolinians in 2012
Release date: 4/9/2013
AG Roy Cooper concerned about rise in DV murders
A total of 122 North Carolinians lost their lives in domestic violence murders in 2012, an increase of 16 from the previous year, Attorney General Roy Cooper announced today.
"I have great concern about this increase," Cooper said. "It's clear that North Carolina must do more to stop domestic abuse before it turns deadly."
Under a state law enacted in 2007, law enforcement agencies are required to report domestic violence related homicides yearly to the State Bureau of Investigation.
Of the 2012 murders, 78 of the victims were female and 44 were male. The murders were committed by 104 male offenders and 18 female offenders.
Of the 122 victims of domestic violence murders last year, seven had taken out protective orders and three of the protective orders were current when the victims were murdered. None of the offenders was reported to be on pre-trial release for a domestic violence crime when the murder was committed.
Wake County, the county with the second largest population in the state, reported the highest number of domestic violence murders, 11. Mecklenburg County, the largest county by population, saw the second highest number of domestic violence murders (eight), while Guilford County, third largest in population, also ranked third in domestic violence homicides (six).
Robeson County, with less than one third of Guilford's population, ranked fourth with five domestic violence homicides. Other counties that reported more domestic violence homicides than expected for their population include Catawba (four), Harnett (four), Henderson (four), and Scotland (four) counties.
The increase in domestic violence murders comes when the FBI's preliminary crime statistics for 2012 show a 1.7 percent drop in murders across the country. Final statewide 2012 crime statistics for North Carolina will be available later this year.
"We appreciate the work of the Attorney General's office to collect information about domestic violence homicides in North Carolina so that we can have a better understanding of the deadly impact of this crime on families all across the state. This information can help inform the development of policy and legislation to address domestic violence in North Carolina and ultimately reduce homicides," said Beth Froehling, Executive Director of the NC Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
Last year's increase in domestic violence murders underscores the need for more resources for domestic violence victims, better enforcement of laws against abusers, and increased education and awareness.
Legislative proposals to require reporting to prosecutors if probationers fail to satisfy offender treatment programs are a good step, Cooper. Mandating that consent protective orders be enforced like traditional protective orders could give victims a stronger voice, he said, a change proposed in
House Bill 209
Court orders put in place to restrain defendants from further acts of violence against victims remain a valuable tool for domestic violence victims, according to advocacy groups. These protective orders, also known as 50B orders after the relevant chapter of the NC General Statutes, are often tailored to fit specific circumstances. Domestic violence advocacy groups say protective orders are one of the best safety tools available to victims and recommend that they be considered in conjunction with an overall safety plan.
Victims can report violations of a protective order to local law enforcement. Cooper says local governments and legislators should provide resources so law enforcement can act quickly to enforce the law against those who violate 50B orders.
"Law enforcement officers know how much damage domestic violence does to families in their communities," Cooper said. "Responding quickly when abusers violate protective orders can help save lives."
Another tool available to domestic violence survivors is the
Address Confidentiality Program
provided by Cooper's office. The Address Confidentiality Program helps people who have escaped domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking keep their addresses shielded from abusers. Victims who move to escape abuse can join the program and have their first-class mail sent to an address chosen by the Attorney General's office. Mail is then forwarded to victims' home addresses, which are kept secret. People can also use the substitute address to register to vote, get a driver license, or sign up for utilities like water and electricity.
A total of 918 participants and their dependents are currently enrolled in the Address Confidentiality Program, which started in 2003. People sign up for the program through local domestic violence shelters, sexual assault shelters and victim assistance centers.
"Anyone who believes they could benefit from our Address Confidentiality Program should contact their local shelter to apply," Cooper said. "Local shelters are a lifeline for those who are trying to escape abuse, and we need to make sure that shelters continue to get the funding they need."
Cooper also pointed to legislation backed by the NC Coalition Against Domestic Violence as a way to help prevent future abuse.
House Bill 559
would require local school boards to adopt policies on dating violence and would add to school health courses information on how to recognize dating violence and abusive behavior.

The United States, along with 22 other countries and other non-governmental participants, will take part in the Freedom Online conference hosted by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs in The Hague. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton kicked off the conference with keynote remarks on December 8, 2011. Text transcript will be posted to www.state.gov, www.humanrights.gov, and DipNote as soon as they are available.
The conference launches an international coalition of states committed to working with businesses, civil society, and relevant stakeholders to take concrete actions to advance Internet freedom worldwide. Twenty-three countries are participating in the conference, as well as prominent activists and bloggers and representatives from leading NGOs, companies, and international organizations.
The Freedom Online conference and the creation of a global coalition of countries committed to Internet freedom is an important step in establishing international support and joint action for the protection of freedom of expression, assembly, and association online for people worldwide.
The Secretary's speech will be rebroadcast at a 2:00 p.m. (EST) satellite event hosted by the Embassy of the Netherlands and Google at the Newseum in Washington, DC on Thursday, December 8, at which Under Secretary for Democracy and Global Affairs Maria Otero will deliver keynote remarks. In addition, Ambassador Philip Verveer, U.S. Coordinator for International Communications & Information Policy, will participate in a panel discussion at the Newseum event.

There cannot be other internet than the free internet.
Hat off, milady!
Be confident that my country, Romania, will fully support this.
Zharkov in the U.S.A. writes:
Who could condemn internet freedom except cowardly leaders afraid of free speech by their own citizens?
Who would restrict internet liberty except tyrants, sociopaths, and psychopaths?
Hans P. in the Netherlands writes:
Why is Secretary Clinton speeking about freedom of internet and the USA is, and controling it, forbid cites, censor it,is buzy with a bill that is having big impackt on internet freedom?
Ashim C. in India writes:
Freedom of internet undeniably is an important component human rights of modern times. In developing countries like for example India, there are human right organisations which champion the cause of separatists of J&K, maoists extremists, who have brought fear and anxiety to lives of millions. There are other so called civil society groups which subserve the interest of religious fundamentalism of all colours. These groups unite to thwart socio-economic development of India by obstructing land acquisition for industry and infrastructure, FDI in vital sectors of industry. These elements are active on internet too. They hardly talk substance, use obnoxious language and the better ones among them take positions based on irrelevent communist theories and cold war era presumptions. All of them sound very anti-establishment and therefore glorified by media. There has been no restriction on these so far in media and internet and self regulation does not seem to be working. Anybody can say anything; This is breeding disrespect for authority, indiscipline, preventing decision making and making our democracy itself dysfunctional. There is nothing wrong with the technology of internet but possibility of internet together with mass media being abused is a sad fact. Internet freedom has to be society specific as a solution. All stake holders must curb irresponsible usage first as it deliberates on ways and means to strengthen it.
Samra in Michigan writes:
Clinton speaking about anything to do with freedom, democracy and human rights is an outright joke and insulting to people with functioning brains. The only "democracy" that the U.S. supports is the kind that subjegates a weaker country into allowing our political and economic interests to take our the sovereignty of that nation. People need to wake up to these realities and hesitate when these terms are uttered by these political/economic "elites."

Despite our best efforts—rallied under a challenging time with tapped out volunteer resources—MBoSC couldn't get a strong enough foothold in this competition and now offer our sincere congratulations to the folks out in Flagstaff who will receive some hefty help on their project, the Ft. Tuthill Bike Park. Field trip to AZ anyone? !! High fives to all of our west coast competitors, and best of luck to the Central Coast and East Coast finalists.
We should all be super proud of how hard we worked to bring in the votes while simultaneously preparing for and throwing the Santa Cruz Mountain Bike Festival, our club's biggest fundraiser which benefits mountain biking organizations and projects throughout Santa Cruz county.
At the close of this campaign, we look to what makes our project a winner no matter who receives the coveted grant: the heart and soul of the Demo Flow Trail—the people making it happen. This comment plucked from a thread about the grant contest cements the MBoSC pride: "Considering the passion of the people working on [the Demo Flow Trail] and supporting it… this is so deserving of a fair share of the grant."
Passion, commitment, dedication, heart. We've got that dialed here in the 831. 😉 Thank you, friends, for the heaps of support you have given to us in our quest to win the Bell Built grant. No matter what, #wewin.
Dig on and peace out!

Information, kinship, and community: Perceptions of doula support by teen mothers through an evolutionary lensRohwer, Shayna A. (Shayna Alexandra), 1975- (University of Oregon, September , 2010)[more][less]Rohwer, Shayna A. (Shayna Alexandra), 1975- 2011-05-18T01:13:18Z 2011-05-18T01:13:18Z 2010-09 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/11181 xvi, 243 p. : ill. A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number. Human birth represents a complex interplay between our evolved biology and the cultural norms and expectations surrounding birth. This project considers both the evolutionary and cultural factors that impact the birth outcomes of teen mothers that received support from a trained labor support person, or doula. Doula support has repeatedly been found to decrease the length of labor, the use of pain medication, the rates of caesarian section, and instrumental births and to increase rates of breastfeeding and bonding. However, virtually no studies evaluate why these positive outcomes occur. Current life history models suggest that traits such as short inter-birth intervals, early weaning, extended dependency, and simultaneously raising multiple dependent offspring co-evolved with child-rearing support from multiple caregivers. These models suggest that mothers should be particularly sensitive to perceived cues of social and material support for childrearing; doulas might provide such cues. The goal of this project was to explore how doula support impacted teen mothers' perceptions of their birth experience and outcomes. Data for the project were drawn from three sources: a 15-month participant observation at a non-profit organization providing doula support to teen mothers, 20 semi-structured interviews with mothers who received doula support for the birth of their babies, and by my attendance as a doula at over 50 births. Results suggest that teen mothers experience upheavals in social relationships with their friends, families, and partners following the discovery of their pregnancy. Participants indicated that doula support increased their knowledge of the birth process, provided unbiased and non judgmental support and information, gave them confidence in their ability to give birth, and encouraged mothers to be proactive in communicating with their care providers. Teens used friendship and kinship terms when describing their doula, suggesting that doula support provides cues of kinship that women have used throughout evolutionary history to assess the availability of alloparental care. While doulas themselves provide salient cues of social support, participants also indicated that doulas increased support from fathers and families, thus mobilizing support from existing social networks. Cues of adequate support may lead to increased maternal investment, thereby improving both maternal and fetal outcomes.

Release date: 7/12/2004
Raleigh: A California company pitching satellite television systems has been ordered to stop calling North Carolina consumers on the Do Not Call Registry, Attorney General Roy Cooper announced today.
"This company refused to listen to people's wishes and ignored the law," said Cooper. "Now, there is one less telemarketer making unwanted calls to people in North Carolina."
Wake County Superior Court Judge Howard Manning granted Cooper's request today to stop Vitana Financial Group from making illegal telemarketing calls into North Carolina while a suit against the company moves forward. Cooper filed a complaint last month asking the court to permanently stop Vitana from making telemarketing calls in violation of state and federal laws and to require the company to pay fines.
As alleged in the complaint, California-based Vitana called North Carolina consumers whose numbers are listed on the Do Not Call Registry. The company, operating as Satellite Systems Network and Direct Satellite Network, made telemarketing calls with prerecorded pitches that promised consumers, "if you are able to get back with me right away, we will also include in your package a brand new home theatre with 6 speakers, a DVD player and a CD player as a free gift just for trying out the service."
More than a dozen consumers complained to Cooper's office about getting multiple prerecorded calls from Vitana at home and at work. Prerecorded telemarketing calls are illegal in North Carolina unless a live operator first asks if the consumer wants to hear the taped message. According to one consumer who complained about the calls, Vitana telemarketers left 10 messages on his office answering machine in just one day with the same prerecorded message.
Since North Carolina's Do Not Call law took effect, Cooper's office has received more than 2,800 written complaints from consumers who signed up for the Registry but are still receiving telemarketing phone calls. The Attorney General's office is actively investigating complaints about several other companies and has taken action to stop a number of telemarketers from making calls illegally. Telemarketers have paid the state over $120,000 for violations to date. Consumers who have signed up can report telemarketers who call them to Cooper's office by calling 1-877-5-NO-SCAM toll-free within the state or by visiting www.ncdoj.com .
A total of 1.9 million North Carolina numbers have been placed on the Registry since it began last summer. To sign up for the Registry, North Carolinians can go to www.nocallsnc.com or call 1-888-382-1222. Consumers who sign up for the Registry are protected by both state and federal law.
"Consumers shouldn't have to deal with interruptions from telemarketers trying to sell them products they don't want," said Cooper. "My office means business when it comes to enforcing consumers' rights."
