2007 Community Graphics Engine Analysis
Grand Theft Auto IV - Community News | @ 04:29 PM MDT | By Kodo
Forums member afterfl0w has written up a nice graphical analysis for GTA IV. I found it very interesting to read and decided to have it showcased on the main page. In the article you'll learn about some things that Rockstar really did right, and some glitches or things that need to be fixed. There's a great amount of attention to detail in the screenshot descriptions. Here is an example:
I'm positive that the fact that the wheels of the cop car are clipping with the ground has been mentioned, so I won't bother. They messed up a bit there, as the car didn't even shift its weight as it went onto the sidewalk. I'm sure it'll be fixed, the car models aren't complete yet.
So, what's good about this shot? Again, the tires. Absolutely perfect. You can see what I mean a bit better in this shot. They're just 100% ace, even better than most racing games (which is embarrassing for them). The road looks great, and even small details like the tire of the car is compressed a bit on the road, as it has weight. Another important thing here is the car is NOT floating above the road in any way.
In most modern-day engines, the characters, models, props, vehicles, all float above the ground, even sometimes ever-so-slightly. Most of you have seen this before, and know what I mean by it. In GTA? They're touching, interacting with the ground. They have weight, and this is going to affect how realistic the entire city feels.

GoErie.com Street View photographer, Rob Frank, caught two GoErie.com staffers — Jeff McCullor and Karen Burchill — hoofing it through the Erie Marathon at Presque Isle 1/2 marathon on Sunday with Rob Lowe???
A runner couldn't have asked for more perfect racing conditions for Sunday's Erie Marathon at Presque Isle State Park with cool temps and zero precipitation. I'm sure there were a lot of P.R.'s set Sunday, including my husband, Dan, who ran a 1:35 in the half. Running Wild blogger, Rhonda Berlin, set a P.R. in the half-marathon, too.
There were 797 finishers in the half-marathon, 519 in the marathon and 137 in the 5K for a total of almost 1,500 participants.
Complete results for all three events can be found here.

Lack of time is the number one reason people give for not exercising. And lack of results once they do start exercising isn't far behind. Interval training is a great solution for both of these common problems.
Interval training involves alternating short bursts of intense activity with what is called active recovery, which is typically a less-intense form of the original activity.
The Swedes came up with a term for this type of training: Fartlek, which means speed play. Not only is it an efficient training method, Fartlek training can help you avoid injuries that often accompany non-stop, repetitive activity, and provides the opportunity to increase your intensity without burning yourself out in a matter of minutes.
Unlike traditional interval training, Fartlek training does not involve specifically or accurately measured intervals. Instead, intervals are based on the needs and perceptions of the participant. In other words, how you feel determines the length and speed of each interval.
Interval training utilizes the body's two energy-producing systems: the aerobic and the anaerobic. The aerobic system is the one that allows you to walk or run for several miles and uses oxygen to convert carbohydrates from various sources throughout the body into energy.
The anaerobic system, on the other hand, draws energy from carbohydrates stored in the muscles (in the form of glycogen) for short bursts of activity such as sprinting, jumping or lifting heavy objects. This system does not require oxygen, nor does it provide enough energy for more than the briefest of activities. And its by-product, lactic acid, is responsible for that achy, burning sensation in your muscles that you feel after running up several flights of stairs, for example.
Interval training allows you to enjoy the benefits of anaerobic activities without having to endure those burning muscles. In its most basic form, interval or Fartlek training might involve walking for two minutes, running for two, and alternating this pattern throughout the duration of a workout.
The intensity (or lack thereof) of each interval is up to how you feel and what you are trying to achieve. The same is true for the length of each interval. For example, if it is your habit to walk two miles per day in 30 minutes, you can easily increase the intensity of your walk (as well as up its calorie-burning potential) by picking up the pace every few minutes and then returning to your usual speed.
A great trick is to tell yourself that you'll run a particular distance, from the blue car to the green house on the corner, for example, and then walk from the green house to the next telephone pole.
When you first start Fartlek training, each interval can be a negotiation with yourself depending on how strong or energetic you happen to feel during that particular workout. This helps to break up the boredom and drudgery that often comes from doing the same thing day after day.
Despite its simplicity, it also is possible to take a very scientific approach to interval training, timing both the work and recovery intervals according to specific goals. Keep the four variables listed in the box to the left in mind when designing an interval-training program.
An ACE-certified Personal Trainer can help you design an interval-training program based on your particular goals.

Thank you, longtime lurker and Giants fan since 1978 here!!!
Thank you, longtime lurker and Giants fan since 1978 here!!!
Testing sig line
The drive for five still continues............
The drive for five still continues............
The 1st preseason game (win) over the Steelers was impressive. However, the losses to the Colts and the Jets were shameful (especially to the Jets). What I can't figure out is this: Why are "old man" Tom Coughlin and "kevin gil's bride" still a part of the NY Giants team??? I've said it before many times over and over again (like a broken record), that unless the NY Giants immediately terminate "old man" Coughlin and "kevin gil's bride" and replace Coughlin with Defensive Coordinator Perry Fewell (it seems one of the only coaches who has a brain), our season is going to end up like the previous season (i.e. 2012) and the NY Giants most likely won't make it to the Super Bowl this season. I know there are critics and fans out there who disagree and want to hurl negative comments when they hear that, but I'm just speaking the logical truth about what will most likely happen. Of course, things may change mid-season, so let's find out, shall we, if the NY Giants management thinks straight and decides to promote Perry Fewell to be the new head coach and run creative, smart drives/plays that result in desperately needed Touchdowns and victories for our team. Thanks for reading and think smart.
By the way, feel free to think about that and comment in a constructive, productive way that will benefit the NY Giants team. Also, if my forecast turns out to be true (it most likely will be) and the NY Giants keep "old man" Coughlin and "kevin gil's bride", then look forward to my negative postings after we lose some games.

Journalist's death in North Caucasus calls for independent investigation
On July 31, 26-year-old reporter, blogger, and civil activist Timur Kuashev disappeared in Nalchik, the regional capital of Russia's North Caucasus republic of Kabardino-Balkariya. When such news breaks in the volatile region--where journalists and human rights defenders are slaughtered regularly and with impunity--families prepare for the worst. The next day, a body resembling Kuashev's turned up in a forested area on the outskirts of Nalchik. The journalist's parents confirmed that it was indeed their son, and a nightmare for every parent unfolded--an autopsy, a preliminary investigation, and waiting for results that would show how the young, athletic man had suddenly died of what officials concluded was heart-related problems.

Rated PG-13 for sequences of intense action and violence, and some suggestive material.
Release Date: July 3, 2013
Directed by Gore Verbinski
Starring Armie Hammer, Johnny Depp, Ruth Wilson, Helena Bohman Carter
The Lone Ranger and Tonto, his Native American companion, are a well-known partnership in American folklore. The injustice-fighting characters first became popular in a long-running children's radio show in 1933. Over the next few decades, they went on to appear in multiple books, TV shows and movies. This summer, the filmmakers behind the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise are bringing the characters back to life in a new Old West adventure. In Disney's The Lone Ranger, Armie Hammer stars as John Reid, a city lawyer who returns to the West to serve as a Texas Ranger. John Reid joins forces with Tonto, played by Johnny Depp, and becomes the infamous masked hero while seeking justice for the murder of his brother.
Did You Know?
Johnny Depp created the look of Tonto's makeup while on the set of Alice in Wonderland. "Johnny sent me a photograph of exactly the way he looks in the movie," producer Jerry Bruckheimer told TFK. "I didn't recognize him in the photograph." Depp told Entertainment Weekly magazine that he was inspired by a painting by artist Kirby Sattler called "I Am Crow."

The Tax Avalanche is Coming
Original post made by Rick Pshaw, Danville, on Aug 6, 2012
Well, I have news for you. If these measures are passed, they most likely won't be temporary. And if the "band-aid" is ever pulled off, the wound will still be there, worse than ever. Nothing will be solved.
Pension costs have gone to totally unrealistic levels due to atrocious planning by the various agencies. The only way stop this madness to vote down * every * tax proposal on the ballot. All of 'em! This will send the clearest possible message to our rapacious agencies.
Things may get worse for the short-term, but they will get much better when those agencies realize that the answer to their fiscal problems is not another tax.

Higher taxes never reduce the deficit, governments spend whatever they take in and then whatever they can get away with. Milton Friedman, economist. Couldn't be clearer or more to the point.

Ronald Reagan is the father of America's national debt. The national debt declined relative to the GDP under every president since WWII before Reagan. Under Reagan and Bush 1 the national debt quadrupled due to tax cuts to 70% of GDP - during times of relative economic stability and economic health. After a brief decline under Clinton, the debt shot up again under Bush II. Most of our nation's current debt was taken on during the Reagan, Bush and Bush years - look it up. And the source of the debt was cutting taxes, notwithstanding the comfy fairy tales repeated by the right wing propaganda machine.
The national debt increased during the Great depression and WWII, due to necessity. America has fought off the worst impact of the great recession by deficit spending since the last year of BushII. (Look at how the rest of the world is struggling.) Unfortunately, we were already $11 trillion in debt when Obama took office, which severely hampered our ability to weather the economic storm created by the deregulation of the financial markets.
So we continue paying lower taxes than our parents and grandparents, building up debt through irresponsible tax cutting, and the whiners complain. And complain. And complain. Wah-wah.

The ONLY people that will vote for ANY of the Tax Initiatives are those voters that don't pay taxes. It's time to cut spending, at both a State and Federal level, and require the government to live within OUR means.
The government can't and shouldn't be everything to everybody...

Dan - Just curious...who are the "lazy half" to which you refer?
Clearly, much fewer than one-half of the working-age population is out of work. So, you must be referring to others as well. Could it be those who work two mimimum wage jobs just to make ends meet, who pay sales, property, excise, SDI, Social Security, and other taxes, but don't earn enough to pay much (or as much as you would like) in federal income taxes. Are they the "lazy half?"
Or is it the significant number of corporations that didn't pay ANY federal income tax last year?

This time around I am voting NO to every tax increase, there has been no meaningful pension reform so I will vote no, no, and no again to any increases in my taxes. Simply put..our trends are not sustainable...the unions must understand that NO is an ANSWER as my Father used to say...

Are You an Apple or a Pear? How to Eat for Specific Body Types
ACE Fit Share
September 5, 2012, 12:00AM
If music is so important then we should probably have some tricks up our sleeve for remaining constantly inspired by our music picks while not breaking the bank, don't you think? I have as much music as possible loaded on a spare iPod that lives in my car (an old one, but it does the trick) and I have 3 extra sets of headphones (anywhere that I may end up without a pair). Beyond that, I spend time exploring and planning music for my workouts. It doesn't take too much time using the tools I'm about to discuss, and the preparation actually gets me really excited to get out the door and break a sweat!
Music Sources
You can literally hold thousands of songs in the palm of your hand, organize them into playlists for a variety of workout scenarios, and skip or repeat at will. If you have not yet jumped on the iPod or MP3 player bandwagon, it's about time. If you need justification, just site the research above and repeat after me, "It will make my workout experience that much better! It's a solid investment." We could discuss music sources for hours, but let's boil it down to the two that are considered the most prevalent and easiest to use.
iTunes is KING. The online music retailer feels like it's been around forever, but it's not even a decade old. In April 2008, it officially became the most popular music vendor in the U.S. And for most of us, it's where we turn to browse and build the soundtrack for our lives. In the past nine years we've certainly seen the number of songs grow, the length of the previews increase, and the variety of searching options have opened our eyes to more music than we could ever consume. Of course, we have also seen the prices go up from $0.99 to $1.29 (for most songs) and we've seen the platform swell into the mecca of all media including apps for devices, movies, TV shows, books, audiobooks and more (which may be overwhelming for some). The navigation is intuitive and the way you purchase and store music is a cinch. Don't forget, you can also still take all of the CDs you have in your house and get them into iTunes to make the best play lists ever from your oldies. iTunes truly is the gold standard for music purchasing, storing, organizing and listening.
Spotify is quickly becoming a close second to iTunes (and is my personal favorite!). My good friend Julz Arney says, "It's like Pandora and iTunes had a baby!" Spotify is a Swedish music streaming service that launched in October 2008. The service has only recently become available in the U.S. (as of July 14, 2011) but has quickly become a favorite among avid music consumers. Spotify is a music library that works a lot like a traditional library. It hosts tons of music in cyberspace that you get to borrow and use, but you're not allowed to keep forever. You can't make a CD from your tunes and can only play your songs on one device at a time (computers, iPods and iPhones all sync up easily). Depending on the type of service you have with Spotify, you can listen to unlimited music, take it with you on the go and play when you're not on a WiFi or 3G/4G network. The best part about Spotify is the "sharing" feature. It is closely linked with Facebook and modeled after the social media giant. You can see your friends, what they're listening to, grab tracks from their favorite playlists, subscribe to playlists that are automatically updated when the owners update and more. You can even import your iTunes playlist into your Spotify library. It's simply amazing and did I mention either free or (at the most) $9.99 a month for Premium service? If you are buying more than 10 songs a month, the $9.99 option is a huge savings. Not to mention, it gives you the freedom to play with your music choices, go out on a limb and pick a song you're not sure you'll like forever. Spotify has greatly enhanced my workout playlists!
Of course, there are plenty more sources like Amazon.com, Rhapsody, Walmart.com, whatever your pleasure. Choose which option works for you to build your musical library for your workouts. Make sure you choose a source that allows you to easily transfer music to your portable player. You'll also most likely want a source that allows you to make playlists for easier listening (shuffle is good until Helen Ready is blaring in your ears during an intense cycling climb).
Music Inspiration
Finding the perfect tunes for your workout doesn't have to be difficult. The days of the wild goose chase are over! Take a look at four of my favorite sources for continual inspiration in the music world.
Jog.fm - Jog.fm's tagline states it "helps you find the perfect music for your run (walk or ride)." You can start by plugging in your mile-run time and it automatically populates a playlist for you, or you can simply choose to browse popular workout tunes for some new ideas. It conveniently shows links to where you can purchase the song on iTunes, Amazon or find it on Spotify. There's even Running Playlists already populated that you'll find useful. And, yes, it has inspiration for other modalities aside from running.
Equinox- Yes, the health club is a great place to turn for your musical fix. They have a section called 'celebrity playlists' where you can see Maroon 5's Power Playlist alongside The Yogi's Playlist. What I love about Equinox's suggestions is how varied they are. If you're looking for workout music you'll find what you need, but you'll also find chillaxing music to wind down, relax or do yoga. And these songs are not your average Billboard Top 100 playlists. You'll find unique tracks and new artists you may never have discovered on your own.
iTunes has a few features that can unlock new music for you. First, the opening screen will constantly change and alert you to new artists, editor's choices, recent hits, music released this week and so on. On the side, you'll be able to easily identify the Top Charts. To get to the good stuff, you can also start playing with Genius and Ping. The Genius feature is, well, Genius! It takes a look at your purchase history and makes suggestions based on your past. Ping is the iTunes social media section. You can follow people on Ping, check out what they are purchasing and share playlists. On the side of the Ping section you will also find Ping Playlists and Ping charts (based on your "friends'" listening history).
Spotify, in my opinion, provides the easiest methods of exploration, which gives way to inspiration. Start with 'What's New' when you log in (at the top left). This feature shows your recommended Spotify Apps and albums, Trending Playlists (among your friends), thoughts about people that may be worth a follow, New Releases and more. Then, you can click on any of your "friends" to see what they're listening to and playlists they've created. You can even share your favorite tracks with them. Spotify also has Apps that help you find and play music. I use 123 Top Lists to see Albums, Artists and Tracks that are trending in Spotify. Finally, there's a column on the right side of the screen that streams your friends' activities, even showing you what they're listening to at that moment. Click on the track and start playing it. If you like it, Star it or pull it into a playlist. Because it's free to check out the whole song, you won't mind taking a listen to something you've never heard before. Spotify makes it simple to play and expand your music choices.
Get started
To help get you started, I've added a playlist of my favorite running tunes just for you on Spotify, as well as my favorite cool down or relaxing tunes. Check both out by clicking on the links below. Enjoy!

Haven't heard any, but I hope they do. A small pickup with a Corvette motor would be remnicent of the Syclone/Typhoon.
Actually more reminicent of the 454 SS. The cyclone/typhoon were turbo sixes. I wonder if it will be AWD too...Hey chevyman do you know if gm used those turboed sixes in any other vehicle??
I'm almost positive they were only used in the Syclone/Typhoon. And by remnicent I meant small truck powerful motor.
Thats a shame those engines if I remember, made like 285 hp and 300+ trq. The truck was a rocket 0-60 in under 5...

The Dolphins quarterbacks — Ryan Tannehill, Matt Moore, Pat Devlin, Aaron Corp — got a special treat earlier this offseason
Former Dolphins quarterback Chad Pennington spent some at the Doctors Hospital Training Facility in May, acting as a quarterback consultant.
As training camp approaches, Tannehill recently sought out Pennington again for some more one-on-one time, visiting with the retired quarterback at his Kentucky home, the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reports.
"I gave him a few handouts that I found in my notes concerning leadership, favorite quotes, etc. that I thought may be useful," Pennington said.
Pennington, the last quarterback to lead the Dolphins to a division title, finished his 11-year career as the most accurate passer in NFL history (66 percent). He saw it all, through the ups and downs, making him a great resource for a young franchise signal caller.
"Chad's a good guy to learn from," Tannehill said after a May OTA practice. ""He was around the game for a long time and still is around the game. He's wanting to help, which makes a big difference. It's exciting for me to get to work with a guy that played at a high level for a long time. Any piece of information I can get from him I'm soaking up."

My students at PS 165 might be sorry to hear that this headline appeared in the Eagle back in 1913, and their teachers will not be going anywhere. They might also be surprised to read of a time when their school was ruled by students, not teachers. In 1913, the principal of PS 165 in Brownsville reportedly tried "an interesting experiment." He decided to place disciplinary responsiblity in the hands of the students. Teachers were renamed Directors, and each class became a club with elected officers. The directors provided academic instruction, but it was the officers who were responsible for the behavior and academic performance of the club members.
The Eagle reports that the system was a success. One director recalled that the club as a whole tended to favor his instruction over an individual student's disruptions. Outside of the classroom, however, the club was free to exercise their full power: "If a fellow misbehaves himself, [the club members] wait until they catch him outside. I witnessed such a case. The boy was better afterward." It does not take much imagination to understand the cause of the improved behavior. The "director" personally felt that this approach was a more "democratic way" of dealing with students. It seems that not everyone agreed, because the restructuring appears to have been shortlived. Later articles about PS 165 do not mention this "experiment," and I am guesing that mob rule was not exactly what the principal had in mind.
The streetscapes of Brooklyn are shaped by the work of countless builders and architects, some famous, some obscure. Some deserve their obscurity. But there are many too who may not have achieved fame, but whose fine work continues to anchor neighborhoods and arouse interest in passers-by.
Axel Hedman is a name known to people who like to read guides to architecture and Landmark Designation Reports. Hedman's buildings are dotted through several Brooklyn neighborhoods. Born in Norrkoping, Sweden, in 1861, Hedman immigrated to the U.S. in 1880. He was naturalized in 1901 and lived in Brooklyn until his death in 1943. Barbara Hedman-Kettell, Hedman's great-granddaughter, has been researching her ancestor's buildings in preparation for a celebratory family tour, and is creating a list of his work gathered from various sources including the Brooklyn Collection. Domestic architecture predominates, but the list also includes some familiar public buildings in Brooklyn and other parts of the city.
Hedman is responsible for a fine group of houses on Maple Street, as well as dwellings on Third Street in Park Slope, Dean Street in Crown Heights, Greene Ave in Clinton Hill, and Decatur Street in Bedford Stuyvesant, and many others. He built the old Swedish hospital, a public bath house at Hicks and Degraw that must have given way to the BQE, and the Parkville Congregational Church that stood at the corner of 18th Ave and East 5th Street. Hedman also carried out extensive renovations to Brooklyn's Borough Hall. Another Hedman building of note is the Congregation B'nai Jacob on 9th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues.
Built in 1913 for Congregation Beth Shalom, this building was sold to an American Legion post in the 1950s. In recent years Congregation B'nai Jacob has restored it to its original purpose, carrying out extensive renovations and adding stained glass windows.
Hedman lived at various times on Livingston Street, East 4th St not far from the site of the Congregational Church he designed, and later, on Avenue L. With offices in the old Arbuckle Building in Downtown Brooklyn and the bulk of his work in his adopted borough, Hedman had a lasting and positive impact on Brooklyn's urban fabric.

"Whether your Thanksgiving holidays mean a gathering of the relatives, the arrival of the college set or just the usual family circle, it's wise social strategy to be prepared for informal entertaining." Margaret Pettigrew, Eagle Staff Writer
Most people groan when they have to conduct research on microfilm machines. I love it. Sure, it makes you a bit queasy and it is hard to walk in a straight line once you've finished, but it is well worth it in my opinion. I am fascinated by recipes from the early twentieth century. And the Brooklyn Daily Eagle does not disappoint when it comes to recipes that grandmothers in Brooklyn once clipped and followed.
The Brooklyn Public Library has the full run of Brooklyn's newspaper, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, on microfilm from 1841 -1955 (1841-1902 can also be found online). Imagine having a tin of recipes from the early 1900s through 1955 sitting on your kitchen counter top! By searching the microfilm for recipes, you can! (There are also entire recipe books in the Eagle Libraries series--but that's another post...) The Brooklyn Daily Eagle included recipes and food commentary in many issues. You can also research the price of food: in Brooklyn in 1941, for example, turkey cost 37¢ per pound. Today, I pay $2.90 per pound for a grass fed, humanely raised and killed bird. The royal bird, as Pettigrew calls it, is worth every cent.
For Thanksgiving 1941, Ms. Pettigrew suggests the following menu: Roast turkey with oyster stuffing, giblet gravy, cranberry sauce, baked onions and potatoes, mashed turnips, baked sweets, green salad, relishes, pecan pumpkin pie, nuts, raisins, cider, and coffee.
If you don't already have a menu planned for this year's Thanksgiving, this looks like a tasty suggestion. Here is the recipe that Ms. Pettigrew used from the kitchen of Mrs. Florence Phillipson for turkey and stuffing:
Recipe: Roast Turkey with Oyster Stuffing
Season turkey with one eighth teaspoon of salt per pound of bird. "Stuff, truss, and grease thoroughly with melted or softened unsalted fat. Salted fat tends to blister and break the skin. Place turkey, breast down, in open roasting pan. Cover with fat-moistened cloth and roast at a constant low temperature of 300 to 325 degrees. Turn bird, breast side up, when about half done. Keep cloth moist by sprinkling it with melted fat." Oyster Stuffing "2 cups bread crumbs, 3/4 cup chopped celery leaves, 1 onion minced, 3 tablespoons diced bacon, 1 quart oysters, cut in pieces, 1/4 pound mushroom caps, halved, 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce. Mix ingredients by tossing together lightly; pack loosely in cavity. This recipe yields enough stuffing for an 8 to 10 pound bird."
The image shows the turkey garnished with a lovely assortment of poached pear halves and I'm assuming, cranberry jelly molded into festive stars. Just a touch of parsley for added green and voilá! an eye catching presentation for your Thanksgiving feast.
During a Brooklyn Connections class visit, students from Teachers Prep asked to look at historic images from their neighborhood, Brownsville. Pulling out this 1953 photograph from the Brooklyn Eagle, I hoped that a picture of young people would help students draw connections to their own lives. I had no idea how close those connections would be: "Hey! I know this place." "Look! It's the Rec Center!" "Isn't that the BRC??" "We hang out there all the time!"
The Brownsville Boys Club was founded by a group of teenageers in 1940. At the time, Brownsville was a predominantly Jewish neighborhood that lacked a community center. The club originally coordinated activities at libraries and school gymnasiums. By 1953, they had their own clubhouse - the opening of which is shown in this photograph. But within a year the community was changing. A new wave of African Americans and Caribbean immigrants was moving in. The organizers relazied their Jewish-based center was becoming obsolete, so they handed over hte clubhouse to the City Parks Department.
Although it continued to serve the needs of the community, a lack of city funding allowed the renamed Brownsville Recreation Center to fall into disrepair. After receiveing an $8.7 million renovation, the Center began a new life in 1991. The refurbished building included an indoor pool, gymnasium, fitness room, dance studio, performance space, computer center, and outdoor playground. Today, the Center's employees, like the original Boys Club organizers, are residents of Brownsville who believe young people in the neighborhood deserve a safe place to play.
Over the years, the ethnic makeup of Brownsville has changes, butthe need for a recreational haven has stayed the same. Children and teenagers rely on the Center's presence - drawing a connection between the youth of the past and the youth of today. For more information o the Brownsville Recreation Center, check out the New York City Parks Department or the Brooklyn Collection's clipping files.

COLLABORATE: work jointly on an activity or project (Oxford Dictionaries)
This herb garden was our weekend family project. We shopped for the herbs, worked together to paint the wheelbarrow and then plant the herbs.
It was my husband's idea to do this project collaboratively. He could easily of planted the herbs himself and be done with it. The benefits of working together are family bonding, a chance for the boys to learn more about herbs and gardening and a sense of ownership for all when we are caring for and eating the herbs.
Why is the herb garden in a wheelbarrow? It makes it easy to position close to the door, for easy herb picking and easy to move to accommodate windy, rainy or extra hot weather.
The Oxford Dictionaries had a second definition for collaboration – cooperate traitorously with an enemy. That might be more the sense of the word that applies when my boys collaborate to hide and jump out to scare me as I walk past (something they've been doing a lot lately!)
This post is part of Science at Home's Teach/Learn blogging carnival. July's theme is Collaboration. Follow the link if you would like to join in.

Backus council leans toward county police coverage
The Backus City Council reconvened the regular council meeting that began Sept. 9 to make a decision on the Lakes Gas contract and the contract for police coverage.
The council discussed the possibility of contracting with the Cass County Sheriff's Department for public safety instead of with the Pine River Police Department.
In the current contract, the Pine River Police Department is contracted for 20 hours per week in Backus for a little less than $40 an hour. The contract being discussed with Cass County is for eight hours per week at the cost of $40 an hour. If the council were to accept this reduced contract it could save approximately $20,000 a year,
Mayor Kurt Sawyer said two investigators, who spend 20-30 hours a week at the Cass County Land Department building in Backus, would also respond to 911 calls in Backus for no additional cost if the city contracts with Cass County. Sawyer said he spoke to approximately 30 residents who were in favor of the change.
Council member Rae Borst said she also spoke to several residents who supported the change of contract.
Pine River Police Chief Paul Sand asked the council if it would consider keeping a contract with the Pine River Police Department for 10 hours a week instead of 20. The cost would be approximately the same as an eight-hour-a-week contract with Cass County.
Sawyer reminded council members that a contract with Cass County would also mean investigators from the land office would respond to 911 calls.
"Most things are 911 call-ins." Sawyer said.
Sawyer said the city should give Cass County a one-year contract.
Council member Steve Braker said some of the benefits of the Cass County contract were not actually in the written contract. He said that the council should get confirmation from the Cass County Board that they will accept the contract before making any decisions.
"It's not approved yet. It could be approved, it probably will be approved, but it's not yet. So, I don't think we should make an absolute decision on this until that board (Cass County) gives us an absolute OK on it," Braker said.
"It would be nice if we actually had citizen feedback," Borst said. "You had the feedback of people saying, 'Yes we want to go with the county because we'll be save $20,000,' but what about the feedback of the people that say, 'We're going to save $20,000 even if we cut the amount of time for the Pine River Police Department'?"
The council approved a Lakes Gas contract at a price of $1.399 per gallon of propane for three locations within the city. This price would be good for the first 3,000 gallons for the town homes, the first 1,750 gallons for city buildings, and the first 300 gallons for the municipal airport. Anything beyond that amount would be charged at the market rate, or the city could possibly negotiate for a better rate.
Usage last year for city buildings was 2,367 gallons. Lakes Gas chooses lock-in rates by averaging the past three years usage for the city.

Reviews of this property
The hospitality of Catherine and her family does not have to übertreffen.Wir felt very comfortable and would try again and again there unterzukommen.Alle unresolved issues to Paris, metro, sights answered etc.wurden and elsewhere were all very helpful! In the bed is keyed with a very good mattress to sleep well, the morning is sweetened with a delicious breakfast. Other family members, such as the small dog or 2 cats are an enrichment of Bildes.Von the terrace you can see from the Eiffel Tower, which results especially in the evening by the lighting of the tower a beautiful picture. In a few minutes, the metro is. From here can be a "Paris expedition" very good start.
Die Gastfreundschaft von Catherine & ihrer Familie ist nicht zu übertreffen.Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden immer wieder versuchen dort unterzukommen.Alle offenen Fragen auch zu Paris, Metro, Sehenswürdigkeiten etc.wurden beantwortet und auch sonst waren alle sehr hilfsbereit! In dem Bett lässt sich aufgrund einer sehr guten Matratze gut schlafen, der Morgen wird mit einem sehr leckeren Frühstück versüßt. Weitere Familienmitglieder wie der kleine Hund oder die 2 Katzen sind eine Bereicherung des Bildes.Von der Terasse sieht man bis zum Eifelturm, was besonders abends durch die Beleuchtung des Turms ein schönes Bild ergibt. In wenigen Minuten ist die Metro erreichbar. Von hier läßt sich eine "Parisexpedition"sehr gut starten.
It was a real pleasure to stay at Catheine's B&B. The room was very comfortable, organized and clean. The apartment is really nice and well located very close to a metro station, from which you can go anywhere in Paris.
Catherine and her family are amazing hosts. They are welcoming, very nice and educated. They always try their best to help you have the best possible experience in Paris by sharing their knowledge and experience with you. I strongly recommend Catherine's B&B as a place to stay while traveling to Paris.
The apartment is very comfortable and in very good condition.
L'appartement est très confortable et
en très bon état.
Enjoyed Catherine is a charming hostess, full of kindness! Her breakfasts are delicious and she is always there for you! I suggest you are B & B! Loana P.
Ai beaucoup apprécié Catherine qui est une charmante hotesse, pleine de prévenance! Ses déjeuners sont délicieux et elle est toujours là pour vous conseiller ! je vous conseille sont B&B!
Loana P.
very friendly welcome, lovely room, very clean and lovely breakfast and full attention to me. Again, thank you Catherine!
accueil très convivial, chambre très jolie et très propre et hotes adorable et plein d'attention pour moi. Encore merci Catherine!
Catherine and her family are welcoming, and the room, balcony and view is nice. If you have problems with the smell of cats though, you will not be enjoying your stay, that's the only negative thing. But if you don't mind, you will feel welcomed and comfortable.
I had the pleasure of staying with Catherine and her wonderful family during July of this year. Catherine is more than just just a helpful host and will go the extra mile to make you feel at home. She met me at the metro station (along with her lovely little dog!) to ensure that I got to the apartment okay. The room and bathroom were kept clean and every effort was made to make sure that I was comfortable and happy. Waking up to views of the Eiffel Tower, whilst eating the delicious breakfast that Catherine prepared every morning was just one of the highlights of my stay. Staying here you have just the right amount of privacy, but never do you feel alone (if you are a lone traveller like I was) I feel very lucky to have stayed here and will return again when I next visit Paris. Thankyou!
Catherine and her family are very welcoming. They traitaions with great thoughtfulness. For us it `was a weekend without desiderata open. Breakfast `s go into the details, very well. We don `t have any problems` integrated into their family. THANK YOU
Catherine et sa famille sont trés acceuillante. Ils nous traitaions avec beaucoup de prévenance. Pour nous c`était un week-end sans désidérata ouvertes. Le petit-déjeuner s`entrer dans les détails, trés bien. Nous n`avons pas de problèmes d`intégrés à leur famille.
I had a wonderful stay at Catherine's place. Her apartment is very clean and has a nice balcony with a view of Eiffel Tower. The place is close to a metro station and most of the Paris sights are easily accessible. Catherine is very helpful person as she helped me to arrange/plan my visits in Paris. I felt comfortable to stay there except that I was not allowed to take shower after 23:00 hr. Anyway, thank you Catherine for everything.
Paris, what a gorgeous city!! Our stay was made even more memorable by our lovely hostess, Madam Catherine and her wonderful family. The pretty room in this fantastic apartment was spacious and clean with plenty of cupboard space. The bathroom was always clean with a fresh supply of towels (as you require). The apartment is on the top floor and from your own private part of the balcony you have a wonderful view of the city and the Eiffel Tower. Catherine ensured that we were very comfortable and was very accommodating and helpful in assisting us with dinner reservations, and taxis, etc. The apartment itself is only a very short walk to the Metro from where you can go anywhere (+- 500m). There are also a couple of resturants and shops in the area as well as a pharmacy and a very good bakery (Patissiere). Catherine provides a good, substantial continental breakfast and great coffee to get you going in the morning. The B & B near the Champs Elysees was a wonderful find and very good value for money!
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone

text: This is an idea I got from another board I post on but we have a lot of fun with it and thought it would be cool to start up here. It's basically just hyping up some of your favorite prospects and getting us excited for the upcoming draft. There's no right or wrong way to do it but typically the more you put into it the better. I'll start it off... Introducing.... from the University of Georgia #9 Alec Ogletree 2012 Stats: 98 Tackles 8.5 TFLs 3 Sacks 6 PBU 1 INT 2 FF 1 TD 2nd Team All-SEC For your viewing pleasure: [youtube]24FvP-tyyTs[/youtube] Few linebackers possess the natural athleticism and range of Ogletree. Once a highly touted Safety recruit, Ogletree spent his freshman season seeing time in the secondary starting 5 games and earning the team's 2010 Newcomer of the year award. Poised to be the next great Bulldog safety, Coordinator Todd Grantham had other things in mind. Realizing Ogletree's freakish combination of size and speed, Grantham suggested he move to Inside Linebacker. Ogletree blossomed, and is now garnering momentum to become a 1st Round pick come April. Over the course of the season I had admired Ogletree from afar, but being that we ran a 3-4 defense with 2 mainstays in Lee and Carter, I never gave much thought to him being a Cowboy... that is, until Monte Kiffin arrived. Ogletree is the prototype Mike for Kiffin's Tampa scheme, maybe the best one to come along since Brian Urlacher back in 2002. Tree's range for the position is second to none, and a LB core of Lee, Tree and Carter patrolling the middle of our defense makes it a no fly zone... talk about speed and playmaking ability. I have no doubt Alec will grab Kiffin's eye throughout the draft process and I'd welcome him gladly come 2013. http://withthefirstpick.com/2012/10/12/fast-risers-alec-ogletree-georgia-linebacker/


text: Hello all, new to this forum but not new to working on vehicles of all sorts. Current fleet includes 2007 HHR, 2002 Malibu, 1966 Chevelle SS, 1984 Chev 3/4 4x4, 1995 Pontiac Transport, 1968 Ford Bronco and the curent problem child a 2002 GMC Jimmy. The Jimmy just had the motor replaced (I bought it with the motor failing) and during the swap I visibly damaged the front diff actuator cable. After the motor was running I tried the 4x4 (4 button electronic NP8 option) and everthing worked. Didn't like the look of the kinked cable so I replaced it. At first startup the service 4x4 light went on and hasn't been off since and the transfer case is locked in 4x4. During the actuator cable swap I dissconnected the cable sensor and re-attached without incident. Now when the 2HI position is requested I can hear the transfer case motor running and I get some clunking on the RH kickpad but the 4x4 light flashs back on and the front driveshaft is engaged but the front actuator has pulled the RH front wheel out and it is dissengaged. Tried removing the battery for a day (in the hope of clearing the transmission codes if any) then re-attaching and still get the same condition. Have an OBD11 reader and cleared one misfire code (old spark wires = replaced) but no other codes showing via reader. HELP!

Jaycees Extravaganza tops $3 million in donations
The Brainerd Jaycees have calculated the final results from the annual $150,000 Ice Fishing Extravaganza and announce that after 23 years, they have met another milestone, donating more than $3 million to hundreds of Brainerd lakes area charities.
Within that amount, more than $2.1 million has gone to the event's primary beneficiary, Confidence Learning Center, an outdoor recreational facility for people with developmental disabilities.
The Extravaganza is planned and executed 100 percent by volunteers. It takes more than nine months planning and 20,000 volunteer hours each year to run what is commonly known as The World's Largest Charitable Ice Fishing Contest.
The Brainerd Jaycees are a community and leadership development organization for men and women ages 18-40. Founded in 1939 they have grown to more than 180 members in the Brainerd lakes area. Collectively the members of the Brainerd chapter donate more than 30,000 hours and $250,000 to area charities and causes each year.

PlayBook: Things Have Changed
The promise of Ryan Fitzpatrick fell fast after a Week Three win against the Patriots.
Only a fool in here would think he's got something to prove
Lot a water under the bridge, a lot of other stuff too
- Bob Dylan, "Things Have Changed"
Bob Dylan wasn't much of Football fan but he was a real American Hero who knew it did not take much for things to go sideways in a hurry. Three bad weeks in a row will send anybody in any business into a god-awful tailspin and it will look especially bad if it is routinely caught on camera and broadcast to the world on live TV.
After starting the season 3-0, Buffalo has been outscored 106-26 in their past three games and their back at the .500 mark coming into Thanksgiving weekend. The promise of Ryan Fitzpatrick fell fast after a Week Three win against the Patriots and there hasn't been much good since. Blowing out the second-string Redskins doesn't count for much amid a four for five skid and only a handful of teams have turned that kind of slide around come the holiday season with six games left on the sched.
Yes, things have certainly changed in six short weeks when we were still talking about the Bills being a wildcard and the Lions going 14-2. That type of weird behavior is always well-received in tight gambling circles where money changes hands with alarming regularity. Sharks line the waters when people start talking like that and they smelled blood in both cities when they were 5 and 3 and 0 and more than a few casual fans were seen roaming the streets with fistfuls of cash ripe for the taking.
Betting the heart over a cold kind of calculating logic has never been a sound investment for people who are careless with their money as fans usually are. They will buy into almost anything if it means their team will win. Enormous spreads and wind direction; they can be treated like pack animals in a frenzy, usually caught coming and going, doubling down twice and sometimes three times before the vague notion of defeat sinks in and the sharks start circling fast. Being a fan usually means you've got something to prove; a lot of water under that bridge; a lot of sharks there too.
This week's lines:
Pittsburgh (-10.5) over Kansas City
The Chiefs have managed a single touchdown in their last their last three games and only a field goal a piece in the two. We need not say much more considering they're up against a notoriously tough Steelers defense.
Carolina (-3) over Indianapolis
You can already see the Luck jersey's coming off the line in Indy.
Buffalo (+9) over New York
What makes a pick a 5-5 team being outscored by 80 points in their last three games? The Jets being asked to cover anything over 5
Arizona (+3) over St. Louis
Why not?
Tampa Bay (+3) over Tennessee
Tampa Bay gave the Packers a run for their money last week, keeping it close through to the dying minutes of the fourth quarter. They're a better team then they have looked this season and they might start playing spoiler.
Atlanta (-9.5) over Minnesota
Minnesota playing within 9.5 while Adrian Peterson was in was a stretch; with him on the sidelines this is hopeless.
San Diego (-6) over Denver
If this goes the other way it will be the last time I bet the Chargers and bet against the Broncos.
Chicago (+4) over Oakland
This is the game that makes everyone think the Bears can still win without Jay Cutler. They can't
Quick Slants: Houston (-4) over Jacksonville, Seattle (-3.5) over Washington, New England (-3.5) over Philadelphia, Cincinnati (-7) over Cleveland, New York (+7) over New Orleans

Personally I would say 9mm, for precisely the reason you stated, price difference. 9mm is cheaper, cheaper ammo = more practice. Other than that, it really depends on your personal preference. For instance, are you going to be carrying or is it just for home defense? Depending on your build, weight, etc, if you are planning to carry you may be able to hide the G30 better than the G19...really depends on your size I suppose.
Other than that, I'd say either would be a good choice. I've shot both and like them both. I have to say, my friend's G30 is fun to shoot....that sucker puts out a pretty big fireball for such a little package.

An enchanting getaway to Barbados from only $219 per night for 2 guests!
The Crane is one of Barbados' premier resorts, sitting majestically atop a 70-foot cliff on the more secluded southeast side of the island, with a spectacular panoramic view over the beach and beautiful ocean waters. Built in 1887, the original hotel forms the centerpiece of a luxurious villa complex which combines 19th-century grandeur with modern-day luxury. Accommodations feature a wide range of wonderfully-appointed suites, all with fully-equipped kitchens or kitchenettes, two-person jetted spa tubs with separate shower and large patio or balcony. Dining options are plentiful, with no less than 6 restaurants and bars. A glass elevator leads to the pink-sand Crane Beach below – grab a lounge chair and umbrella; "beachside" beverages and light meals are also available for purchase. Away from the sand, there are no less than 6 outdoor pools, with a resort-signature cliff-top lap pool and marble sundeck framed by classic Doric columns. In addition, the fabulous Lagoon Pool is situated cliff-side, offering a multi-pool complex of four pools including a kid's wading pools and a waterfall pool – note that several of the residence villas feature private pools as well. Land-based recreation features 2 tennis courts and a fitness center. Indulge yourself in the Serenity Spa which features a full menu of treatments – you're worth it! "The Village" houses resort-based shops – some duty free – restaurants and fitness facilities. The resort is located about 14 miles from Bridgetown – take the resort's weekly scheduled shuttle for sightseeing and shopping (additional charge) – and 10 miles from the St. Lawrence Gap area. And if you happen to be in Barbados on a Friday evening, catch a resort shuttle (additional charge) to the fish fry in Oistens Bay Gardens – where you'll enjoy true local "Bajan" flavor in both cuisine and live entertainment!

Food & Beverage Options:
About Barbados
A small island in size, Barbados might be considered "small" in size, but it's definitely large when it comes to character! Steeped in history, culture and tradition the island exudes a natural charm which is uniquely Bajan. Each of Barbados' eleven parishes feature different feels and highlights – from the picturesque, limestone hills in of St. Andrew to the action packed night life in Christ Church, you'll find something for everyone!
East Coast of Barbados
The East Coast of Barbados – and where the Crane is located – is known for its magnificent rock formations, the wide sandy beaches and of course the waves! This coast is definitely one of many contrasts. Here you will find the large waves of Bathsheba's "Soup Bowl" - the surfer's paradise - just mere meters away from natural rock pools; ideal spots for swimming. Or the rugged hills of the Scotland district juxtaposed with the flat winding roads of Bath. The East Coast is an experience all on its own. Designated a Historical Site, you can be assured that the natural beauty will be preserved for years to come!
Mount Gay Brewery
If you love rum – and who doesn't – make sure to pay a visit to the Mount Gay Brewery! Located in the center of the island, a fascinating brewery tour will show you the rum-making process while regaling you with the colorful story behind this world's oldest rum! And of course, you'll be able to "sample the merchandise" at the end of your tour – your appreciation for a pina colada or a rum and coke will surely be heightened after your visit!
Barbados Museum
The Barbados Museum is located in the parish of St. Michael in the Garrison Savannah area.The island's rich history and culture come to life in seven fascinating galleries, set in beautiful nineteenth-century buildings. You can explore Barbadian natural and social history, African heritage, military history, decorative arts, prints and paintings. This is a great place to get a feel for Barbados, it's diversity of culture and to learn about its rich heritage.
Flower Forest
Located at the site of the old Richmond sugar plantation in the parish of St. Joseph, the Flower Forest is on the edge of the east coast Scotland District and commands spectacular views of this area and is one of the most scenic parts of Barbados. There are numerous imported plants and trees with a lovely palm collection, which provides some much-needed shade and is an ideal place for a picnic. There is also a bar and restaurant that opens out on to the forest.
Cricket is to Barbados what baseball is to the USA - Cricket has been the national pastime of Barbados almost from the beginning of this country's history, having been introduced to the island by the early English settlers. It's played in the village streets with homemade bats and taped tennis balls or on one of the many cricket grounds around Barbados. The most famous cricket ground is Kensington Oval, less than a mile from the heart of Bridgetown, the island's capital. This historic and centuries-old home to international cricket was transformed and restored into an ultra modern stadium for the hosting of Cricket for World Cup 2007!

Holla eva,
We had a nice time in your flat, and we hope, we kept it to
Your satisfaction. Your city is very wunderfull and we come back
Some day and then we will stay in your flat again, if you want us to.
Have a nice time
Best regards
Elke and hp
Great location, with lots o restaurants, cafes and bars around, but not in the middle of the tourist "traps", there is a market right downstairs to buy something and eat it on the terrace or simply to have breakfast in there, 10 minute walk to main attractions
Host was very nice and explained us well all we needed to know about the city.
There is a really nice alley that goes to the river. It has aircon, cutlery, and everything you need.
Overall it was a great experience and it has a great value for money for groups of i would say up to 6 people.
The only downside = one shower only
The flat was in the heart of the city, clean, beautiful and quite.
I would recommend it to everyone!
warm regards
We had a lovely weekend in beautiful Sevilla. The apartment was complete and cosy and very centrally located, near Giralda in a quiet street. Perfect communication with Carmen, Rocio and Paco. We will be back!
Positive was the quiet location of the apartment and it was clean. Generally speaking utilities were ok. Further the neighbourhood with the fresh market around the corner and the beautiful square with a lots of restaurants and bars.
Minus points the apartment was quit dark with a bit poorly atmoshere.
Basic needs like soap and toiletpaper were missing.
The welcome was disappointing like they did not know that we came there for a week. And the wifi does not function well.
Nice, clean and in the middle of the city, but very noisy.
An excellent apartment close to the Cathedral & the bullring , calle Adriano with a large selection of restaurants & bars was mere steps away from the front door.
The apartment was air conditioned , the TV had a facility to change the Spanish version of many programmes back to the original English language version , hot water was constantly available & the washing machine was a Godsend.
Hugely impressed and would return.
Fine appartment a bit noicy but that's a feature of the Spanish temper.
We had big expectations on this apartment, due to the very high price. We are very disappointed! Improvements have to be done to make this study serious, otherwise stop rent out.
Negative things:
- The study did not have any air-conditioning this must be mentioned in the description of the appartment!!!! Imagine, in July with 30 degrees and three Tapas bars just under our balcony, made it impossible to sleep, because we had to have the balcony door open (noisy until 3 a.m.). With closed door you could not sleep due to the heat.
- The study was quite dirty and non-fresh. Marks on wall paper etc. and we had to clean the bathroom ourselves before using it.
- The stove was in a bad condition. Only two out of four stove plates functioned.
- The sheet was too small for the mattress, so where ending up laying on the mattress itself
- The balcony was very small
- The pots and pans were worn out with broken layer. Must be upgraded (the rest of the kitchen and tools were Ok)
Positive things:
- The study is very close to the beach
- The view from the balcony was very nice
- The study has a washing machine
- If it is too windy on the beach there is a swimming pool included
- Kvalitetssikret innkvartering
- Hver vert er verifisert via telefon
- Sikker betaling med SSL-kryptering

Pneumatic Chain Saws with Brake
CS Unitec offers a complete line of pneumatic chain saws for cutting wood and plastic, as well as for underwater and underground applications. Series 5 1026, 5 1027, 5 1028 and 5 1029 air saws are designed with a chain brake to stop chain movement during kickback or repositioning of the saw during cutting. This is a unique safety feature that is required by many industries. These heavy-duty air chain saws feature two separate oil lubricating systems. One oiler provides lubrication to the saw chain. A separate oiler automatically lubricates the motor for long life, easy startup and low-maintenance.
Safer than gas or electric in hazardous atmospheres, these pneumatic saws are suitable for use in hot work areas, Ex zones or hazardous environments. The powerful 4 HP motor consumes 92 CFM of air at 90 PSI. Each series of saws is available with a cutting capacity of 15", 17", 21" or 25". Standard equipment includes an Armor Tipped Guide Bar and a Super Chisel saw chain 404 pitch. Carbide-tipped and ripping saw chains are also available for special cutting applications. The carbide tipped saw chain will cut through steel nails, creosoted wood and wood with barnacles underwater.
The Series 5 1026 air chain saw is optimal for cutting wood. It is used for heavy-duty applications by construction, power generation utilities and municipal rail transit systems. Series 5 1027 plastic-cutting chain saws come with integrated water feed to lubricate the saw chain. This is ideal for use in cutting polyethylene and plastics in the petrochemical, oil and process industries. Series 5 1028 is ideal for underwater use especially to cut wood pilings around docks and shipyards. Series 5 1029 is engineered for safe operation in mining and underground applications. Many air saw models in the aforementioned lines are ATEX Classified for working in Ex Zones.

With the rapid aging of the population, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is intensifying the search for strategies to preserve brain health as people grow older. The effort moved an important step forward today with a report by an expert panel to the NIH, suggesting a number of promising avenues for maintaining or enhancing cognitive and emotional function. Specifically, the group said, education, cardiovascular health, physical activity, psychosocial factors and genetics appear to be associated with brain health with age, and research aimed at directly testing the effectiveness of interventions in several of these areas deserves further attention.
The report is published online today in Alzheimer's and Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer's Association. It is a product of the Critical Evaluation Study Committee, a panel of experts appointed by NIH and led by Hugh Hendrie, M.B., Ch.B., D.Sc., of Indiana University, Indianapolis. The committee evaluated several large on-going studies of older adults for current scientific knowledge on brain health.
"Three NIH institutes — the National Institute on Aging (NIA), the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) — established the NIH Cognitive and Emotional Health Project to coordinate and accelerate research leading to interventions for neurological health," says NIH Director Elias A. Zerhouni, M.D. "This report suggests a future direction of research and is a terrific example of what we can learn when scientists of diverse specialties work together on a complex health issue."
Hendrie and colleagues cited demographic pressures to find ways to maintain cognitive and emotional health with age. Approximately 4.5 million Americans have Alzheimer's disease, and additional numbers of older people experience less severe, but still problematic cognitive impairment with the risk of such cognitive decline increasing with age. In one area of emotional health — depression — the everyday function of an estimated two million older adults is also threatened, according to NIMH.
"With more Americans living well into their 70s, 80s and 90s, developing strategies to preserve cognitive and emotional health as we grow older is a major public health goal," says Richard J. Hodes, M.D., director of the National Institute on Aging. "This report analyzes research identifying factors that are associated with cognitive and emotional health and most importantly describes several directions for testing interventions to determine their effectiveness in improving cognition and emotional health."
The panel broadly discussed a change in the focus of brain research. In addition to studying specific causes of brain disease and dysfunction, research also should approach cognition and emotion from the opposite direction — looking at what works to preserve brain health. "We set up the Cognitive and Emotional Health Project in recognition of changed thinking. In this report, the committee specifically articulates a new paradigm for research focused on health rather than dysfunction," says NINDS Director Story C. Landis, Ph.D.
Another major theme emphasized the interconnectedness between cognitive and emotional health. Cognitive health and emotional well-being are "inextricably linked," the report concludes, and efforts should be made to examine them simultaneously.
"Cognitive decline and emotional stress in older people involve a number of physiological and psychological processes going on at the same time," says Thomas Insel, M.D., Director of NIMH. "This report highlights the need to better understand this interrelatedness if we are going to devise effective ways to maintain brain health."
The evaluation committee reviewed scientific data from 36 large, ongoing studies of aging and identified more than 40 separate factors that may play a role in cognitive and emotional health. Those highlighted in the report are summarized below, including those in which possible interventions might be explored:
Details of the research papers evaluated by the panel are available online at http://trans.nih.gov/CEHP/CriticalEvaluationStudyReport.pdf [1]. The Cognitive and Emotional Health Project's searchable database of a large number of studies on age and cognitive and emotional function can be found on the NIH website at http://trans.nih.gov/CEHP [2].
