Mike, I tried to just ignore this... But, that is pure BS.
PS... No matter how great a dog is, they still have to be trained too. I was in the Northwest when Creek Robber was young and saw him first hand on a regular basis. He was a great dog. But, he didn't do it by himself. Trying to conflate dog training and your hatred for all things Republican is idiocy.

I think I know that The point is average dogs can be made better through good training. All I have ever owned is average dogs that have been made better through good training. Hopefully God will bless me with one of these great dogs before I die, but that does not mean I'm not going to keep trying to win with my average dogs.
Read the other post that started this. No I use to like the republican idiocy....but I would not associate myself with it now. At least the left can keep their wack jobs in check...,.the right can't keep theirs at bay.
I heard you got one. Northrop did a great job whelping the puppies too! Mine already loves to retrieve and is clean. Has not had an accident in his crate yet. I took him training with Bill this week and he was fascinated by the pheasants. I told him to learn that smell good.

I have a 5 month old Co-Sleeping little girl Serena (sitting on my lap trying to type at the moment, excuse the typos), she is still nursing so we are keeping her in our room for a while. She now sleeps in her pack-n-play beside our bed and I put her in bed with us during the night. DF and I watch shows at night time that are sometimes violent or scary (ex American Horror Story, Sons of Anarchy) and he doesnt think its a big deal because Serena is sound asleep and doesnt wake up during them.. but I dont know if she can still hear it while sleeping and if it could effect her subconsciously. I dont want her havng nightmares when she gets older because of the TV :(
Am I over-thinking this? Should I start to worry when she gets older? Is anyone else concerned about their babies watching grown up shows? Do you think violent shows could effect a baby while they are asleep?
I remember my parents watching nightmare on elm street when I was a very small kid- not the entire movie but a very specific, scary scene of it.
I don't remember if I was scared when I saw it but I do remember seeing it almost 30 years later...
I would pause the show if dd wakes up and listen to the tv with the volume very low.

VTL: The Next Generation
"What about next generation?"
"NG? No good."
"What about TNGthe next generation?"
"Maybe . . . ."
So what's new and improved, you ask? The volume control software and chip, the all-tube gain stage topology, the relays, there's, an improved precision power supply, and space for an internal phono stage. Oh yeah, and RS-232 inputs and outputs.
The sound? Well, Luke was comparing it to the 6.5 and at twice the price the 6.5 ought to sound betterit did, but dang, the 5.5 was hanging in there impressively. However, I was also listening to the VTL S4000 ($27,500), which really made the Avalon Indras sing.
About that S400I've been listening to the VTL 450s and they are really special, but the S4000 just had more air and it had an iron grip on the Indras that really made them popespecially on the deep bass tones on Raising Sand's "Trampled Rose." Since I'd criticized the low bass of the Indras in my review in Stereophile, hearing them produce bass far deeper than I would have suspected possible was a total ear-opener.
I'm sure the 5.5 TNG will be impressive, but VTL's Reference line is still champeen.

The 21-year-old sprinter, who was sent home from Barcelona when a test which had been taken before the Games showed up positive for Methandianone, was quoted in the People as saying he had been recommended to take a food supplement drink which was not on general sale by someone who 'wanted to make their mark in athletics'. Livingston said he did not think the drink contained the drug or realise the consequences, 'but I am guilty'.
Until now, Livingston, who had been planning an appeal within the next month, has consistently protested his innocence. If the report is confirmed, it is hard to see what grounds of appeal remain, as the British Athletic Federation has long maintained that ignorance is no defence in such cases.
'These revelations come as news to me,' Geoff Morphitis, the chairman of Livingston's Shaftesbury Barnet club, said. Morphitis, who has helped the sprinter prepare his defence over the past five months, added: 'If they're true, I'm disappointed that he didn't hold his hands up earlier and tell us. Maybe then we would have prepared a different course of action.
'He never told me that he was going to do a newspaper article and I just wonder where this leaves Jason and his legal advisers now as far as an appeal goes.'
Linford Christie, the man in whose shadow Livingston has laboured, interrupted his training regime in Australia to record simple victories at the Sugar Games in Adelaide.
In his first competition since the World Cup last September, Britain's 32-year-old Olympic champion won the 100 metres in 10.35sec and the 200m in 20.74, before reiterating his intention to race the former Olympic 100m champion, Carl Lewis.
'I want to sort out Carl once and for all,' Christie said. 'That's my aim for this year. Next year is my last year and that's that. I'll race him anywhere, any time.'
Colin Jackson, who has been training alongside Christie, had a convincing victory over the 60m hurdles in Saturday's Vauxhall International between Great Britain and the United States at Birmingham. Jackson recorded 7.46, just 0.05sec outside his European indoor record.
He was marginally slower in Sindelfingen, Germany, yesterday, clocking 7.51, but the win was worth possibly more as it came against a field who included Mark McCoy, Tony Dees and Greg Foster.
Steve Smith, Britain's world junior high jump champion, maintained his position as the world's leading jumper of the moment with an all-comers' record of 2.35 in Birmingham. The revelation that Smith is suffering from the beginning of stress fractures in both shins is worrying at this stage of the season, even though he maintains that doctors are monitoring the situation and that jumping does not directly affect it.
Following next week's TSB Challenge, also at Birmingham, where he hopes to jump 2.40, Smith will train solidly for two weeks in preparation for the World Indoor Championships. But if he is unable to do bounding exercises properly he may give up the idea of competing in Toronto. Given that his main ambition is to win the outdoor world title in Stuttgart this summer, such a decision may prove a blessing in disguise.

New 2.5L Ecotec Is Significantly Quieter Than Outgoing 2.4
44Sponsored Links
As GM begins production of its new 2.5 liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine slated for the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu and Cadillac ATS, among other vehicles, car buyers the world over can not only expect a more sporty driving experience thanks to an increase in power, but also a much quieter driving experience.
See, the direct injected 2.5L Ecotec straight four has 16 percent more horsepower than the 2.4 it replaces, but its noise intensity is a whopping 40 percent less. And when you're talking about a small engine being more powerful and less noisy at the same time, that's quite the achievement — wouldn't you say?

sfLimitedTextareaPlugin - 0.5.1textarea_tag alternative that supports limits on total characters entered |
Limits on the length of user input are a fact of life. But the
HTML tag is notorious for its lack of support for such limits.
sfLimitedTextareaPlugin provides both a hard limit and visual feedback
as the user begins to approach the limit.
<?php use_helper('LimitedTextarea') ?>
<?php echo limited_textarea_tag(
'default text',
'id' => 'myid',
'max' => 1000,
'enforce' => true
)) ?>
Note that you may pass additional options if you wish. They will be
passed on to the underlying textarea_tag
In this example, the length of user input is limited to 1,000 characters. That limit is enforced: if the user types more than 1,000 characters their additional output will be removed right away so that they know there is a problem. If you do not want the enforcement behavior, which can be a bit frustrating because the text insertion point tends to move, then just don't set the enforce option.
Even if you don't set the enforce option, the user will still see a visible indication of how many characters they have used so far and the total number of characters allowed. That indication is color-coded: green for the first two-thirds of the limit, yellow for until five-sixths and, if enforcement is turned on, red for the final sixth of the allowed number of characters. If enforcement is turned off, then red is not used until the allowed number of characters is exceeded, since the user would otherwise have no way of knowing that they are past the limit.
Note that these colors actually come from CSS classes, so you can change the behavior easily.
Of course, this is purely a convenience for end users. Your code must still take steps to make sure the input string is not too long. Client-side JavaScript can never be relied upon by the server and should only be used to help honest users do something more easily.
limited_textarea_tag uses CSS class names that
begin with limited-textarea
. This prevents conflicts with
other code.
By default, the plugin will automatically output a style
tag defining
the following simple styles for the "red," "green" and "yellow"
.limited-textarea-red {
color: #FF0000;
.limited-textarea-green {
color: #00FF00;
.limited-textarea-yellow {
color: #FFFF00;
If you wish to redefine these, just set the appropriate parameter
in your app.yml
customcss: true
Then add your own definitions for these classes to your own CSS file.
(I could have put this in a separate stylesheet to be loaded automatically, but loading three little CSS definitions does not justify forcing the browser to load an additional, completely separate file. Merge these into your own stylesheet instead.)
Documentation fixes.

Erik Weihenmayer is a blind American mountaineer who not only conquered Everest, but gathered a group of blind Tibetan children to climb a neighbouring Himalayan peak, the point being not the conquest itself but the team spirit and self-esteem it would foster.
The children's guardian is an equally remarkable German woman, also blind, who knows what her charges have suffered: in Tibet, the blind are considered possessed by demons. How they managed the trek defies belief, but in an art-form where superpowers have become passé, it's a stirring reminder of what human powers, against the odds, can achieve.

Soon after the union Home Ministry verified the Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri tape as authentic, Home Minister Rajnath Singh set the ball rolling. Latest News from Uttar Pradesh News Desk
A missive was sent to the state police and the home department after which a state of high alert was put in place, officials added.
Inspector General Amrendra Sengar said that district police have been asked to be extra vigilant and the local intelligence units have been sensitized on the new threat perception.
District police chiefs have also been asked to share and pass on any specific or even vague input at the earliest.
Security has been beefed up at busy thoroughfares, religious places, schools and public places like the bus and railway stations, multiplexes, and parks where people are present in large numbers.
"We have stepped up security whereever it is needed and the UP Police is determined to meet the challenge thrown up by the terror group Al Qaeda," said an intelligence official.
Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has announced the creation of a South Asian branch of his outfit to "raise the flag of jihad" in the Indian subcontinent, causing concerns.
In a 55-minute video posted online, Zawahiri - who succeeded Osama bin Laden after he was killed in Pakistan, said that the formation of "Al Qaeda in the Indian subcontinent" would be good news for Muslims in Burma, Bangladesh and in the Indian states of Assam, Gujarat and Jammu and Kashmir where they would be rescued from injustice and oppression".

Several thousands of citizens of Magwi County thronged various parts of the County to commemorate four years since it seceded from Sudan.
At Magwi Freedom Square, various speakers made strong calls for peace and reconciliation among residents in the new nation.
Magwi, the most tranquil region, is one of the Counties blessed with peace since the outbreak of conflict in the country in mid-December 2013.
Thanks for your sustained donations to plant fruit seedlings in South Sudan project.
Hope Ofiriha added your gifts to cash donations from another source to buy fifteen Indian Mango seedlings, and twenty Eucalyptus seedlings ready for planting.
The project distributes the seedlings to the families with enthusiastic interest to plant fruit trees to produce nutritious food for a next generation and boost a local economy in a near future.
The insecurity is our primary concern although Magwi remains a peaceful County since social unrest broke out in 2013. We are reaching Omilling despite these challenges.
The project will be sending you a new field update after a quarter, to let you the progress your gift is impacting from the ground.
Thanks for your continued gift to give fruits in South Sudan.
Your continued support together with donations from other sources helped a project to buy 20 avocado seedlings, 15 yellow banana seedlings, and 50 passion fruit seedlings. Hope Ofiriha distributes these seedlings to the village families who are interested to plant fruit trees to provide nutritious food and boost a local economy in the future. Hope Ofiriha has not delivered the seeds due to insecurity concern in Magwi County. We are recommencing an operation in earlier April to supply the beneficiaries with the seedlings.
Hope Ofiriha will send a new field update after a quarter, so you get to know the progress your gift is impacting from the ground.
Owinyikibul villagers clashed with new recruits in earlier March.
The government and the opposition have failed to reach a peace deal despite the pressure from IGAD, UN, and the World. There are new fierce clashes in Jonglei and Upper Nile States. Humanitarian situation is worsening. There are 1.5 million people displaced from their villages of which some are living in exile as refugees.
In Owinyikibul of Magwi County, new soldiers recruit clashed with local villagers earlier March. The drunken soldier had refused to pay for the services where he was stabbed in a bar fighting. He then organized his fellow recruits burning more than 100 houses and market stalls in retaliation. One recruit in the clashes. A chief has blamed the trainers for failing to keep discipline.
Thanks for your recent generous gift to Give Fruit and a Greener Environment project.
Your contribution has helped purchased - ten banana seedlings, ten passion fruit seedlings, five jackfruit seedlings, and eight eucalyptus seedlings. The Traditional Authority has granted a large area of land to the project to use as a tree nursery.
Fruit trees are grown from infancy in special partner fruit tree nursery in Uganda so that our staff can manage the delicate budding and grafting process. From there, these seedlings are transported to South Sudan to go to one of three places - Fruit trees planted in improved local fruit orchard, Fruit trees given to community to grow, and plant, and Fruit trees given to families as part tree planting project.
The fruit trees are for the benefits of Omilling, in time and with proper care will produce enough fruit for the members to eat, and to sell for profit. The project will also attract commercial activity in the area that will boost the local economy and infrastructures.
In the next quarter, a new field update will be posted so that you get to know the positive changes your contribution is making in Omilling south Sudan.
Thanks for your recent generous gift to Give Fruit and a Greener Environment project.
Only months ago an alleged coup in South Sudan has left hundreds dead, and many in the region concerned for what the coming months may bring for the world's youngest country.
More than one million people have been forced from their homes by the ongoing conflict in South Sudan, the UN says. Of these, 803,200 have been displaced within the country, and another 254,000 have fled to neighboring countries, according to the latest UN report. It warns that the situation is likely to get worse as the violence continues.
Fruit trees grow from infancy in the nursery, so that the local volunteers can manage the dedicate budding a grafting process. Then from there, seedling fruits go to three divisions - fruit trees are distributed to families, fruit trees are given to community groups whom the project helps to grow, plant, and look after their fruit trees, and fruit trees are planted in the project improved orchards.
Since the project began years ago, it grows mango, guava, pawpaw, avocado, and banana trees. While some fruit trees grow naturally in Magwi, trees are often poorly managed, and some fruit trees like banana trees suffer from viruses which mean they do not produce fruit.
With your contribution the project has purchased the seeds of ecycalptus tree, Avocado, passion, jack fruit, and yellow banana to start a new fruit nursery.
Due to the growing insecurity concern the project will relocate the fruit tree nursery from Omilling to Magwi center. Hope Ofiriha has applied for a land to set up a new nursery, and the positive answer is expected soon.
In the next quarter HOPE Ofiriha will post a new field update report so you get to know what impact is your contribution is helping to creating in Omilling South Sudan.

Elliott Kastner was a successful American producer based mainly in the UK who was noted for his skill in bringing together writers, directors and stars for generally commercial (though sometimes surprisingly cerebral) films.
He excelled in literary adaptations, from popular works such as those of Raymond Chandler and Alistair MacLean to the more esoteric output of such writers as Iris Murdoch, Vladimir Nabokov and Edna O'Brien.
He also favoured tales with strong, single-minded heroes and produced films featuring such actors as Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, Jack Nicholson, Robert Mitchum, Burt Reynolds and Richard Burton. His biggest hit was Where Eagles Dare, a non-stop roller-coaster ride of plot twists and exciting situations beautifully fashioned by its director Brian G Hutton and played to the hilt by a cast topped by the powerhouse combination of Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood.
Born in New York City in 1930 and educated at the University of Miami and Columbia University, he worked in the mail room of the William Morris Agency in New York as a teenager, eventually becoming a literary agent. He moved to Los Angeles as a talent agent for the powerful MCA (Music Corporation of America), becoming vice president in charge of production at Universal Studios in 1962, before packaging and producing his first film in 1965. Based on a story by William Inge, Bus Riley's Back in Town bore some resemblance to Inge's successful play and film Picnic in its tale of a drifter who returns to his home town and arouses latent passions. It starred Ann-Margret and newcomer Michael Parks, hopefully promoted by the producers as a new Brando, but neither Parks nor the movie came off well (though the film later acquired a cult reputation), with the film listing as its writer Walter Gage, a pseudonym for the several writers, including Inge, who worked on it.
The following year Kastner teamed up with Jerry Gershwin to form Winkast Film Productions, based at Pinewood Studios, and had his first major hit with Harper (UK title: The Moving Target), a thriller starring Paul Newman as Ross Macdonald's creation Lew Harper, a down-on-his-luck private eye who is hired to find the missing husband of a wealthy invalid (Lauren Bacall). The complex, Chandleresque tale was not as good as the Forties yarns it emulated, but the genre had been neglected and a combination of timing and a sterling cast (Janet Leigh, Julie Harris and Shelley Winters were among those lending support) made it successful.
Sweet November (1968) also evoked memories of earlier films, those about stoic, dying heroines, with Sandy Dennis taking a new lover every month because she is fatally ill and wants to avoid long-term commitments. Anthony Newley played the young man who upsets her plan when he proposes to her. Though touching, it was criticised for being mawkish and did not attract audiences, though Kastner liked the property enough to remake it in 2001 with Charlize Theron and Keanu Reeves.
Kastner's biggest hit of all was the first of three films he made from Alistair MacLean stories, Where Eagles Dare (1968), a Second World War adventure with Burton and Eastwood leading a group of commandos on a mission to rescue an American general being held captive by Nazis in a castle in the Bavarian Alps. The film had its genesis in a request from Burton that Kastner find him a popular subject in which he could play a "real hero" to please his children, who were tired of seeing him in heavy drama. Kastner then approached MacLean, who wrote the original script in six weeks, later turning it into a novel. Brian G Hutton directed, but famed action man Yakima Canutt directed the team of stuntmen in the action sequences, causing Eastwood to suggest the film be re-titled Where Doubles Dare. Kastner's later films by MacLean, When Eight Bells Toll (1971) and Breakheart Pass (1975), did not have equal success, though the latter, starring Charles Bronson, was a gripping and inventive Western, set mainly on a train.
Kastner worked with Marlon Brando for the first time on the kidnap tale The Night of the Following Day (1968), followed by The Nightcomers (1971), a tasteless "prequel" to Henry James' The Turn of the Screw, and he later achieved a casting coup when he teamed Brando with Jack Nicholson in Arthur Penn's The Missouri Breaks (1976). A quirky Western in which Brando, as a bounty hunter, dons a disguise of bonnet and dress in one sequence, it did well despite a poor press, and its reputation has strengthened over the years.
Adaptations of Nabokov's Laughter in the Dark (1969), Iris Murdoch's A Severed Head (1970) and Edna O'Brien's Zee and Co (1972), the last-named starring Burton with Elizabeth Taylor at her most shrewish, were more offbeat Kastner productions, and he made three films based on the Philip Marlowe thrillers of Raymond Chandler: The Long Goodbye (1973), with Elliot Gould as a shabbier Marlowe than usual, Farewell, My Lovely (1975) and The Big Sleep (1978), the last two with Robert Mitchum as the dogged hero. Other Kastner productions included Villain (1971) with Burton, Equus (1977), with Burton and Peter Firth, Garbo Talks (1984), an underrated comedy about a woman's dying wish to meet Greta Garbo, Angel Heart (1987) with Mickey Rourke, Heat (1987) with Burt Reynolds and A Chorus of Disapproval (1988), based on Alan Ayckbourn's stage comedy.
In 1977, he produced a film version of the Sondheim musical A Little Night Music, with Elizabeth Taylor as the ageing actress Desiree, who rekindles an old passion when her touring production plays her former lover's home town. Though its hit song, "Send in the Clowns", had been performed to great effect on stage by such non-singers as Glynis Johns, Jean Simmons and Judi Dench, Taylor could not match their vocal potency, and the unevenly paced movie had a limited release.
Kastner's last film was Opa! (2005), a comedy set in Greece. Many of his films from the late Sixties on were co-produced with Alan Ladd Jr and Jay Kanter, and Kanter said after Kastner's death, "If Elliott believed in some material, he'd never hesitate to put his own money into buying it and hiring writers to develop a screenplay. He was passionate about what he did, and he was a terrific salesman as well." Married to the interior decorator Tessa Kennedy, with whom he had two children, he was stepfather to his wife's three sons from a previous marriage, including the actor Cary Elwes.
Elliott Kastner, film producer: born New York City 20 January 1930; married Tessa Kennedy (one son, one daughter); died London 30 June 2010.

This note seeks indirect evidence regarding possible sex biases in food intake for adults and children, through large-scale survey findings for anthropometric indicators. Among adults, excess female undernutrition is a serious problem in view of the large populations concerned (rural China, India), but data are still needed to assess the situation in many countries. Regarding preschool children, the anti-female biases once noted for China, India, and other countries seem to have disappeared. Where differences exist, boys fare worse than girls (probably because girls, given a less than adequate food supply, tend to cope with it better than boys). Anti-female discriminatory practices either are limited in magnitude or apply in groups that are too few or too small to be detectable in large populations.

What is a Function?
Lesson 1 of 10
Objective: SWBAT identify functions from ordered pairs, a table, a graph, and a mapping diagram.
Students will complete today's Do Now in about 4 minutes.
Afterward, I will call the problems out aloud, and students will respond back with the answer.
Next a student volunteer will read today's lesson objective, "SWBAT identify whether a relation is a function".

To introduce the idea of a function I will act out the following narrative while Slide 3 of Functions is showing:
One day I was walking down the street and I decided that I was really thirsty. I saw a soda machine and pulled out a dollar to get something to drink.
At this point I will tap on the board to simulate getting a soda out of the machine, and I will ask students to make and fill in the blank input/output table at the top of their notes. The input will be the button that I push, and the output is the corresponding table:
Input Output
Coke Button --> Coke Can
Coke Button --> Coke Can
Sprite Button --> Sprite Can
Coke Button --> Coke Can
I will ask students to to turn-and-talk to their neighbor for about 30 seconds about what happened in my simulation. I will ask students if anything strange happened, and to decide if the machine is functioning.
Next, I will proceed to the soda machine on Slide 4. I will also tell students a similar narrative about wanting a beverage to drink, and I will ask students to fill in the second input/output table for this new machine:
Input Output
Coke Button --> Coke Can
Coke Button --> Sprite Can
Sprite Button --> Root Beer Can
Coke Button --> Water Bottle
Again, I will ask students to turn-and-talk to their neighbor about what happened in this simulation. I will ask students if anything strange happened, and to decide if this machine is functioning. I will also ask students to describe the relationship between the inputs and outputs in both machines, and how the the presence of a repeating input or output affected whether or not the machine functioned correctly.
Finally, I will show students the tables on next slide, and invite students to create their own definition of the word function. After a brief discussion and examination of about functions and non-functions, I will introduce the vertical line test as a way to classify functions on a graph. I will ask students to use what they know about functions to explain why the vertical line test works.
Students will follow along with this lesson using Guided Notes.
Resources (2)
Partner Practice: Card Sort
Students will work in pairs to complete the Function Card Sort Activity. Pairs will first cut up the cards. Next, students will sort the cards into two groups (Function/Not a Function) and glue the card onto the corresponding side. Lastly, students will write a sentence on page two justifying their response using math terminology.
After about 20 minutes, we will reconvene as a whole group and compare our responses. I will ask students to share their examples of functions that they created on their own.
Resources (2)
I will ask a few students to summarize what we learned today, and to give a definition of a function in their own words. Students will then complete an Exit Card.

I love the idea of using the soda machine. Asking is it functioning? If you press the Sprite button and a Coke comes out the machine could be functioning just someone stocked it wrong. However, if you press the Sprite button again and then a Root Beer comes out. Something is wrong with the machine. Smart!

It should be noted that this miracle of science ocurred using umbilical cord stem cells, and not the heavily politicized embryonic variety.
A South Korean woman paralyzed for 20 years is walking again after scientists say they repaired her damaged spine using stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood.
Hwang Mi-Soon, 37, had been bedridden since damaging her back in an accident two decades ago.
Last week her eyes glistened with tears as she walked again with the help of a walking frame at a press conference where South Korea researchers went public for the first time with the results of their stem-cell therapy.
They said it was the world's first published case in which a patient with spinal cord injuries had been successfully treated with stem cells from umbilical cord blood.
This is good news for everyone, should it turn out to be true, because we may have a new and ethically unambiguous way of changing peoples' lives. I'd say it's about time for a confusing metaphor.
The use of stem cells from cord blood could also point to a way to side-step the ethical dispute over the controversial use of embryos in embryonic stem-cell research.
"We have glimpsed at a silver lining over the horizon," said Song Chang-Hoon, a member of the research team and a professor at Chosun University's medical school in the southwestern city of Kwangju.
Here's a little more to read if you're interested
Powered by SidelinesClinical trials with embryonic stem cells are believed to be years away because of the risks and ethical problems involved in the production of embryos — regarded as living humans by some people — for scientific use.
In contrast, there is no ethical dimension when stem cells from umbilical cord blood are obtained, according to researchers.
Additionally, umbilical cord blood stem cells trigger little immune response in the recipient as embryonic stem cells have a tendency to form tumors when injected into animals or human beings.
For the therapy, multipotent stem cells were isolated from umbilical cord blood, which had been frozen immediately after the birth of a baby and cultured for a period of time.
Then these cells were directly injected to the damaged part of the spinal cord.
"Technical difficulties exist in isolating stem cells from frozen umbilical cord blood, finding cells with genes matching those of the recipient and selecting the right place of the body to deliver the cells," said Han Hoon, president of Histostem, a government-backed umbilical cord blood bank in Seoul.
Han teamed up with Song and other experts for the experiment.
They say that more experiments are required to verify the outcome of the landmark therapy.
"It is just one case and we need more experiments, more data," said Oh Il-Hoon, another researcher.
"I believe experts in other countries have been conducting similar experiments and accumulating data before making the results public."

They should not be filing lawsuits, as times just did not focus on these kinds of things when they played. Sucks? Yeah, but thats how it works. I can, however, understand why the current players would want a system that protects them afterwards. The science is far superior today, and we now know just how much abuse the players bodies take. Sure, they earn a pretty large pile of money, however the owners make at least 10 times as much, and they hardly put their body on the line. For all they care, a player is with their club for like 15 years at best and then they get new players. I don't understand the "They knew what they went into" argument. That would be the same as denying someone who got stress any help because the person damn well knew that stress is a potential risk of working. Furthermore, people seem to believe that all football players earn a shitton of money. Sure, we hear about the large contracts etc. but the average salary in a place like Packers (pre SB victory) was under 500k a year. While that is way above the average salary per year, the players are not able to work for nearly as long the average person, especially not if a good portion of those money have to go into surgical repairs of various body parts after their career is over.
I am not trying to argue that NFL players earn a lot of money, because that is unquestionable, however I do think that a policy after their career is over is warranted as they do put their body on the line day in and day out. It is not like this is cause the owners to go bankrupt. It is hardly all players who'll need a lot of attention afterwards. The owners would get a lot of good publicity and come out as winners of the debate, looking like the good guys, which would give them a great bargain strategy for next CBA.
Regarding Obama and the healthcare system.. really? Lets keep Obama out of here... Im sure you can find plenty of other places to rant about him should you not agree about his politics. This is a football forum so lets talk football shall we.
However much you think you know about football, rest assured that Skip Bayless knows more!
Johnny Unitas wasn't paid huge money and while he was alive all he wanted was fair compensation from the NFL when he basically lost total use of his right arm......NFL basically told him to **** off and said his arm trouble wasn't related to his playing days......
Last time I checked it was the owners locking out the players......Not the players going on strike but whatever you're entitled to your opinions......NFL owners created this and now they better deal with it.....I'll support the players over the billionaires club.........
I pasted a few links below where the data I used in this submission came from. There are a lot of articles out there but it is hard to wade through the jargon and try to find substance. Even in below, the details were kept pretty brief and that doesn't show how one argument (free agency after 3 v 5 years) impacts the remaining issues. I don't pretend to know more than any other reader. I am limited to finding things on the Internet like anyone else.
Why are players seeking extended health benefits?
It currently takes three years in the NFL to receive five years of post-career healthcare. So hypothetically, a player is drafted at age 22, leaves the league when he is 25 and therefore will receive no more health benefits from the NFL and its multi-billion dollar enterprise after the age of 30.
Hardly a recipe for success; but, both owners and players (union) can be blamed:
For many years, the players union put the needs of the current players ahead of the needs of the retirees, but now that focus has changed.
Isn't this issue just about about money?
Its not so much about money as much as it is about medical coverage for retired players. Football is a physical sport that can leave a lasting impression, especially as we continue to uncover more and more about the long-term brain damage that many players suffer. Right now, the NFL and NFLPA is barely providing players with enough coverage to survive.
The real crux of this problem is that its an issue that the players have neglected in several previous labor disputes, and now its snowballed into an avalanche.
What options have each side argued to resolve the issue?
The players union would like owners to set aside 2% of their profits ($320 million), while the owners will only offer $100 million.
Couldn't a salary cap easily fix this issue?
Options include a salary cap or re-routing some of these millions from incoming players to the outgoing ones via the pension fund. Sounds easy enough since many fans, owners and players believe there is an issue; just work out the scheme, right?
Without a doubt, the NFL rookie pay scale is out of control. Every year, first-round draft picks -- especially the ones at the top of the draft -- earn more than the majority of vested, proven veterans before they have even played a single live snap.
The league would be willing to do something like reduce the wage the rookies make, but are not offering anything along what they will save via a rookie salary cap.
Perhaps there is someone out ther that understands how the rookie wage drives veteran wages that can shed additional light on that issue. I just tried to keep this real simple.
If the players gave up their right to sue the owners for millions in workmans comp claims. My guess is they would get some sort of better health care after retirement that would help pay for some of the surgical procedures that were caused by playing.

The range of target yields being advertised in the first round of bond PEP launches ranges from a modest 5.7 per cent from Framlington's Convertible Trust PEP, which offers prospective capital gains when converted into shares, up to a high of almost 9 per cent on Commercial Union's Monthly Income Plus PEP, which has a higher risk of capital erosion .
Competition will be severe, and cynics say that it will not be long before someone offers a prospective 10 per cent yield, and some providers will produce high-risk, high-yielding bonds similar to the junk bonds which took the US by storm in the 1980s.
There is some risk that individual companies issuing bonds will default, and investors will lose everything. Bonds issued by Barings Bank are frequently cited as an example. Individual bond prices and yields will reflect that risk, which can change with the issuing company's circumstances. But the main threat to investors with portfolios of bonds in their funds comes from inflation, which is especially liable to affect bonds with a long life and low interest payments, and the changing levels of interest rates in the economy as a whole. Falling interest rates will make fixed-interest bonds attractive, but rising interest rates will drive down the value of all fixed-interest bonds.
The return on money invested in a corporate bond PEP comes mainly from the annual interest paid out on the bonds/ stocks. But there is also a possibility of capital gains or capital losses once the bond has been issued, depending on what happens to interest rates along the way and on the difference between the purchase price of the bond and the price at which it will be redeemed. So there are two ways of calculating the return on the investment, one based on the income, the other on the income and capital combined.
To be eligible for inclusion in a PEP, bonds must have a fixed "coupon" which describes the amount of interest paid each year on each pounds 100 nominal of stock. If the stock sells at less than its nominal value, the true yield on the investment will be higher than the coupon. So a stock issued at pounds 100 with an 8 per cent coupon yields 8 per cent on an investment of pounds 100. At, say, pounds 97.50, an 8 per cent coupon will give a "running" yield (also known as a "flat" or an "income" yield) of 100/ 97.5 x 8.00 which works out at 8.205 per cent on each pounds 100 actually invested.
If competing interest rates rise to, say, 9 per cent, an 8 per cent coupon will look less attractive and the value of the stock will tend to fall to 100 x 8/9 = pounds 88.89.
It is unlikely to be quite that sensitive, especially if it is a stock due to mature at pounds 100 in a few years' time, but the price will certainly fall. Conversely, a drop in interest rates will push up the value of a fixed-interest stock and create a capital profit for the holder.
Once a fixed-interest bond has been bought, the investor has locked in the running yield for as long as he or she holds the bond. Once issued, however, the subsequent value of the bond when it is bought and sold on the stock market will rise and fall with supply and demand, and new buyers will receive a different running yield. The yield on a managed portfolio will also fluctuate as the managers trade assets and invest new money.
Bonds eligible for bond PEPs must also have a fixed life or maturity date, set at the time they are issued, after which they will be redeemed at par (ie, their nominal value). If the stock is issued or is currently trading below its par value, it will make a guaranteed capital gain when it matures. Conversely, if it trades above its par value during its life, (usually because short-term interest rates have fallen) it will still be redeemed at par and will inflict a capital loss on the investor who holds it to maturity.
These built-in gains or losses between the current price and the redemption price are averaged out over the remaining life of the bond and added or subtracted to the running yield to produce a "redemption yield". Bonds trading at a price above par will have a higher running yield than their redemption yield; stocks trading below par will have a higher redemption yield.
Shrewd investment in longer-dated maturities can generate bigger gains than in shorter maturities, but the risks of the capital being eroded by inflation and high rates are also greater.
The actual return to the investor will be affected by the charges the managers impose as well as by the running and redemption yields on the portfolio. Johnson Fry, Legal & General, and M&G make a point of not making an initial charge in order to tempt investors into their funds, although M&G is imposing an exit fee of 4.5 per cent on investors who pull out in the first year, scaling down to 4 per cent in the second year, and on down to zero after five years.
However, most of the pro-viders that have already launched their products are making an initial charge of between 1.5 and 5 per cent, deducted from the initial investment. High charges usually signify high commissions.
The overwhelming majority of providers impose an annual charge, anything from 0.5 per cent at Allied Dunbar to 1.5 per cent at Commercial Union, for their services in managing their funds.
Most managers deduct this charge from the dividend income, which will significantly reduce the running yield. Others tend to pay over the dividends in full - to bolster the running yield - but will deduct the charge from the capital value of the investor's holdings. Over time this could cut the value of the fund significantly.
Autif, the trade body which supervises the sector, is pressing corporate bond PEP managers to make the impact of their charges clear by quoting the running yield and the redemption yield, both net of charges and gross, on the bonds they offer. But there are signs that managers will try to emphasise the yield which most flatters their product and helps it achieve its advertised objective.

I received a call from my son-in-laws father. He has a neighbor who is trying to give away an 1820's barn. You must disassemble and take away. The barn is made with tongue and groove beams with pegs holding it together. There is also some hand hewn beams beside the barn.
The barn is in Branchberg NJ. South of Sommerville and North of Flemington. NJ.
Here is the message that I received.
Subject: Circa 1820 Barn & Hand Hewn Timber
Attached are photos of our circa 1820 barn with loft (35'x15') and hand hewn beams which are both being giving away free if you dismantle and cart away.
We are NJ Builders starting a new subdivision and the barn must be taken down.
Thank you for your consideration.

It is probably a bit much for any one person or even a person with a couple of friends. But if there were a local woodworkers guild or wood turners club they could probably put together a crew that would get good use from a lot of it. Try someone at this woodworkers guild website http://www.njwoodguild.com/guild/Home.html or this wood turners website http://www.njwoodturners.com/ (If they wanted to send me some as a commission for pointing you in their direction feel free to tell them I would humbly accept it.) -- Todd "I am just a teacher and a carpenter, that doesn't mean I have a God complex.

I wish the Super Mario Bros. 2 pause music would play any time I paused in real life.
Some people in the universe take video game music very, very seriously. This is mostly because the soundtrack of Pokemon Red is the only music you discover by yourself between the ages of 6 and 10. It becomes permanently ingrained to your brain, a sense of belonging and ownership you can't quite get from regular old records – and when that combines with an already oily sense of geeky entitlement, you create some fascinating human specimens. I'm not trying to be spiteful, it's just that people saying incredibly passionate things about semi-inconsequential content is really funny. Still, there is some video game music you should know about, and I have compiled that along with any notable/hilarious YouTube comments along the way.
Chrono Trigger – "Wind Scene"
Hilariously Overwrought YouTube Comment: "Such a moving and peaceful song that can bring a tear to my eye every time I listen to it." –prince apoopoo
Chrono Trigger is kind of like The Traveling Wilburys, if The Traveling Wilburys were Japanese and were regarded with one of the most impeccable legacies in the history of pop music. Basically in 1995 a bunch of hotshot RPG developers got together and built a massive ridiculously-innovative supergame which is still secretly the best game to ever come out for the Super Nintendo. Obviously the music, orchestrated by a dream team of Yasunori Mitsuda, Nobou Uematsu, Noriko Matsueda (just pretend those names mean something to you), was pretty good. "Wind Scene" has always been my favorite, because its magic works on literally anyone, Grandmas to 8 year old boys. I seriously will play it at my wedding, and no one, including my future wife, can stop me.
Metal Gear Solid 2 – "Main Theme"
Hilariously Overwrought Youtube Comment: "Srsly games offers so MUCH more emotions, legendary jurneys, epic storys and awesome character than any movie will ever do. LONG LIVE THE MGS SERIES!" –Drakengard65
The Metal Gear Solid series was invented by full-time crazy person and occasional game-designer Hideo Kojima. Kojima is an evil version of Quentin Tarantino. I won't go into specifics about how Metal Gear Solid 2 antagonistically blueballed it's audience, but it would be kinda like listening to Centipede Hz and realizing Panda Bear was replaced with a pale skinny blond dude with spiky hair and a sword. But you know what? Any negative thing I can say about Metal Gear Solid 2 is immediately erased by that introduction. I'm not going to stand here and say that the main theme of MGS2 was not responsible for heroic tears in my mid-pubescent youth.
Donkey Kong Country 2 – "Stickerbush Symphony"
Hilariously Overwrought YouTube Comment – "still can't get enough of it. it's very calming, and it gives you a feeling of both hope and sadness... and then it's very emotionally disturbing when we reach the end of the "chorus" /"refrain," like it's some sort of cliffhanger to what is bound to happen..." –sisigman
Listen sisigman, I feel you. "Stickerbush Symphony" is one of the best songs ever written. I would rather listen to "Stickerbush Symphony" than live 95% of my entire life. It's got charisma, an otherworldly mystique, a gorgeous, misty aesthetic, and some of the best midi-sax of all time. I have absolutely no snark to offer, in fact, someone should rap over this right now. [Ed: I suggest Chinx Drugz, but that's just me.]
Mario Kart 64 – "Rainbow Road"
Hilariously Overwrought YouTube Comment – "I honestly cried when I played the new MarioKart game. They have Rainbow Road as a throwback level, and it didn't have this music. I burst into tears, confused the heck out of the kid I was babysitting..." –IANOYTYK
Probably the only song on this list that you could call iced the fuck out. "Rainbow Road" is a globetrotting classic, if only because Mario Kart 64 somehow crosses over every boundary that can possibly exist between video game players and non-video game players. These days it sounds like a throwback Depeche Mode jam, with maybe a little more pizzazz. There's nothing quite like pulling away from the rest of the pack with high-flying synths blowing out your TV speakers. This song makes it feel like the whole world is proud of you.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time – "The Lost Woods"
Hilariously Overwrought Youtube Comment – "It took me a year to beat this game! games back then was very challenging it took more than a controller it took a MIND" – RicTown07
It says something about our current cultural situation that you can say the phrase "lost woods" to anyone under the age of 30 and chances are they will be immediately consumed by this melody. Ocarina of Time is like the London Calling of video games, in the sense that it's totally universal and universally lauded. As a child, when I was exclusively listening to shitty low-fidelity rips of video game music and about three different AC/DC songs, "The Lost Woods" was in heavy rotation. I remember one night I caught my Dad whistling it, which made me feel like I was liberated. Something about the gently ascending melody is catnip for Elementary-schoolers, to this day I don't think I've gotten "The Lost Woods" out of my head. If only Saria would start returning my calls.
Super Mario Bros. 2 – "Pause Music"
Hilariously Overwrought Youtube Comment - This music has haunted me since I was a kid up to now o.o" -thbklover2010
It's funny how with laughably limited memory and an 8-bit console, the folks over at Nintendo digitized one of the sickest walking baselines of all time. I wish the pause music for Super Mario Bros. 2 would play any time I paused in real life. Elevators, classrooms, car commercials, the dark edges of my soul. It seriously makes everything better.
Persona 4– "Never More"
Hilariously Overwrought YouTube Comment – "I grew chest hairs on my soul from Persona 4" -dusperz
Persona 4is a 90+ hour super-game that involves building and maintaining relationships with an eccentric group of high school friends as you battle phantasmagoric demons who exist a parallel plane of existence only accessible by crawling through a television. Yes this is dumb, really dumb, but it actually totally works. When the credits started rolling at the end of my 90+ hours and this song was playing against all of the friendly visages of my accumulated electronic pals, it really got me in the feels. Wistful Japanese pop music is a dangerous and beautiful weapon.

News in brief: Sage; Europe,UK
Sage report finds 75% of SMEs are not exporting
To celebrate Export Week and the launch of a new Government exporting push, Sage has published survey data claiming that 75% of SMEs are currently not selling overseas, nor have plans to. The survey of Sage's customer data reveals that 7% export with the EU, 16% export globally, but the rest do not export at all, or have plans to.
Coming as the Government launches a drive to promote exporting opportunities to UK businesses, the research also revealed the triggers that could prompt these companies to sell overseas. Companies surveyed said that government support, clearer information and EU advice on trading across borders would all make exporting more attractive.
Speaking at the launch of Exporting is GREAT, Sage CEO Stephen Kelly said: "We're passionate about supporting businesses from start-up through every stage of their growth. Exporting is a significant step on the journey – one that many small and medium businesses don't feel they have the support or knowledge to take. Our customers tell us that awareness of the opportunities and more government and industry support would help them make the move, so we are thrilled to be supporting Exporting is Great."
Around 17% of UK SMEs plan to expand overseas by 2025
By 2025, 880,000 (17%) of British small businesses plan to expand overseas – an increase from the 10.8% of small businesses currently taking advantage of additional export revenues, according to research conducted by business e-lender Everline and the Centre for Economic and Business Research (Cebr) as part of its Small Business Tracker.
After growing their workforce (39%), exporting was the preferred way that small businesses saw their expansion plans going in the next 10 years. The stats varied according to regions, with almost twice as many London small businesses (30%) planning to export. Businesses in the North were least likely to take their business overseas (11%), followed by the South (excluding London) at 13% and the Midlands (17%).
COO of Everline Russell Gould said: "Although the number of small businesses planning on expansion overseas is hugely positive, more could be done to encourage small businesses in this area, particularly outside of London. The latest Annual Business Survey figures show that a third of medium-sized businesses and 41% of large businesses currently take advantage of export growth. Small businesses should work with industry bodies like the UKTI to see what opportunities exist and get advice on how to grow their business overseas."

Team Fortress 2 Hack | Hack Team Fortress 2
The subject of Team Fortress 2 Hack has been covered intensively by the world press over the past decade. The constantly changing fashionable take on Team Fortress 2 Hack demonstrates the depth of the subject. While it is becoming a hot topic for debate, it is yet to receive proper recognition for laying the foundations of democracy. It is estimated that that Team Fortress 2 Hack is thought about eight times every day by socialists, many of whom blame the influence of television. Complex though it is I shall now attempt to provide an exaustive report on Team Fortress 2 Hack and its numerous 'industries'.
Interweaving social trends form a strong net in which we are all trapped. When Lance Bandaner said 'twelve times I've traversed the ocean of youthful ambition but society still collects my foot prints' [1] he must have been referning to Team Fortress 2 Hack. More a melody to societies dysfunctions than a parody of the self, Team Fortress 2 Hack is quite good.
When one is faced with people of today a central theme emerges - Team Fortress 2 Hack is either adored or despised, it leaves no one undecided. Clearly it promotes higher individualism and obeyence of instinct. As soon as a child meets Team Fortress 2 Hack they are changed.
Derived from 'oikonomikos,' which means skilled in household management, the word economics is synonymous with Team Fortress 2 Hack. Of course, Team Fortress 2 Hack fits perfectly into the Watkis-Teeth-Pulling model, a lovely model.
Hack Team Fortress 2How do we explain these clear trends? Clearly oil prices, ultimately decided by politicians, will always be heavily influenced by Team Fortress 2 Hack due to its consistently high profile in the portfolio of investors. Many analysts fear a subsequent depression.
Politics was once a game featuring competitors from elite classes. Politicians find it difficult to choose between what has become known in politics as - 'The two ways' - night and day.
In the words of one of the great political analysts Maximilian Tuigamala 'People in glass houses shouldn't through parties. Amazingly, he new nothing of Team Fortress 2 Hack until he was well into his thirties. If Team Fortress 2 Hack be the food of politics, play on.
Is Team Fortress 2 Hack politically correct, in every sense? Each man, woman and to a lesser extent, child, must make up their own mind.
How much responsibility lies with Team Fortress 2 Hack? We can say that Team Fortress 2 Hack may not be the best thing since sliced bread, but it's still important. It inspires, puts out 'fires', and never hides.

Giant's Trance Advanced 27.5 2 plays nice with gravity on the descents but won't play by its rules on the climbs. This composite trail sled floats over rock gardens and roots thanks to Giant's 140mm Maestro rear suspension featuring a RockShox Monarch RT shock. On the front, a RockShox Sektor Gold RL delivers the same suspension action with 140mm of travel. Throw in a SRAM GX 2x10 drivetrain for slick shifts and the right gear for whatever the trail hurls your way, as well as a set of Giant 27.5 wheels for sweet rollover with quick acceleration. Plus, SRAM's stellar Guide R brakes inspire confidence on every inch of dirt. And a Giant dropper post means the perfect riding position, whether the trail grinds up, drops down, or snakes around; it's just a flick of the remote away. The rest of the spec, including Giant's Contact stem, bar and saddle is ready to play nice, but on its own rules.

Today, The LAM Foundation is the largest funder of LAM research, outside of the National Institutes of Health. The LAM Foundation has raised more than $11 million to support LAM research and patient services, a significant portion of which has been directed to 119 peer-reviewed grants and translational projects. The LAM Foundation-funded research has led to many major discoveries, including: Evidence that LAM is genetic Identification of a LAM gene Molecular explanation for abnormal smooth muscle cell growth in LAM, which has led to new therapies for LAM FDA approved treatment for LAM Learn more about grant opportunities for investigators, including how to apply.
