The NEC Composers' Series, directed by Malcolm Peyton, brings together many generations of NEC's contribution to new American music. Tonight's concert is NEC's annual Arthur Berger Memorial Concert, and includes works by Arthur Berger, who taught at NEC through the end of the 20th century, along with current NEC composers Robert Cogan, Lyle Davidson, Rodney Lister, Malcolm Peyton.
The Arthur Berger Memorial Concert Fund was established in July 2007 through the generosity of Mr. Berger's widow, the late Ellen Berger.
Composers Lyle Davidson and Rodney Lister and performer Eden MacAdam-Somer have provided notes for several of the works on this concert.
Davidson Chester
Chester Brezniak, clarinet
My teacher Luise Vosgerchian advised me to study with Arthur Berger, who was then teaching at Brandeis University. She said he "had good ears." Indeed every piece I brought to him was subjected to the closest scrutiny—note by note. Chester is one of the first instrumental pieces I wrote after that experience. One of the many benefits of teaching at a Conservatory is being with players who have exquisite command of their instrument. I wrote this piece for one of the best clarinetists around, Chester Brezniak. From bottom to top his sound is special, and the piece is my attempt to take advantage of that quality. Under Chester's sensitive interpretation, the piece features fast flurries of sound, runs that plummet down from high cliffs of single tones, and slow lyrical lines that only the clarinet can draw out. The title also makes reference to one of New England's original composers, Boston's own William Billings, who also wrote a popular piece for four voices also named Chester.
Lister As a Box Kite Is to a Kite
Charles Blandy, tenor
Rodney Lister, piano
For a while now I've been interested in working with groups of four discreet triads containing all twelve notes. I first got interested in this idea through some of the post–World War II works of Virgil Thomson, primarily Wheat Fields at Noon, where the triads used are f minor, g minor, A major, and B major. I think that what Thomson found appealing was that they gave a sort of floaty, whole-toney sense, but without all those nasty augmented triads. Over time I also found examples of that kind of concern with triads in the beginning of Gesualdo's madrigal Moro Lasso, and a section of the Thesaurus of Scales and Melodic Patterns of Nicolas Slonimsky. I more recently stumbled on the fact that pairing the major and minor triads of the above triads (f minor with A major and g minor with B major) produces two type-E, all-combinatorial hexachords, and two hextonic cycles (for example F minor, F major, a minor, A major, c-sharp minor, and C-sharp major). I'm not sure whether to be embarrassed not to have initially known these matters of twelve-tone and post-Riemannian theory before this or to be pleased to have discovered it on my own. In any case, these songs, written during last summer, reflect various aspects of those concerns.
Berger Perspectives III
David Kopp, Rodney Lister, piano
Cogan Aflame in Flight
Eden MacAdam-Somer, violin
Aflame in Flight is the last of a large sequence of folios composed in homage to, and based on the texts of, William Carlos Williams. Each folio explores montage techniques in which a large, ever-growing group of segments are to be combined in many different ways. In Aflame in Flight the violinist uses four specific fragments to create a framework for the piece, but chooses from 37 other fragments to develop the body of the work, resulting in a new composition with every performance.
Begun in Paris during the Balkan violence at the end of the twentieth century, it is dedicated "to the memory of all those past and present everywhere who have been driven from their homes—aflame in flight in the worst sense." Stillness, silence, flurries of motion, ecstatic passages, and lyrical laments give voice to this dedication.
Peyton O Me! O Life! songs from Walt Whitman
Krista River, soprano
Nicholas Kitchen, violin
Yelena Beriyeva, piano

HYDE PARK, Friday—There is one county in New Jersey—Monmouth—which I think does an exceptionally good job through its social services, and this is largely due to an outstanding citizen. Mrs. Lewis Thompson has had a hand in all the welfare organizations of the state, but as she lives in Monmouth County, that county's organization for social service reflects her interest and personality.
She cares about people and this interest at home has taken her to her state capitol and to Washington, D.C. The servicemen of New Jersey can be grateful for the programs which she has helped to inaugurate for them. Mrs. Thompson, of course, could not do her work alone and she has had splendid cooperation. But she gives inspiration and energy and courage such as few citizens give to the welfare work of their communities.
Now the Monmouth County organization for social service is raising a fund for the erection of the Geraldine L. Thompson Building. This will be their headquarters, and its very name will inspire those who work in it to better citizenship.
* * *
In this county, they are never satisfied with the work they are doing, they always want to make it better and to increase the services which they render. In addition to the social service organization's present activities, they are planning for night clinics to treat tuberculosis and venereal disease, and to do mental hygiene work. This will be a real service to wage earners who, unless acutely ill, cannot get away to attend day clinics. They even hope to do things for the two diseases which are responsible for the greatest number of deaths today—heart trouble and cancer.
This county is setting a good example. One of the things it brings home to us is that there must be some individual who furnishes the driving power and gets other people to feel concern for the well-being of the whole community.
* * *
Brooklyn has also started a new program. There, the Tuberculosis and Health Association and the Red Cross are pioneering together in a course of instruction for tuberculosis patients in the Kings County Hospital. The patients are taught proper diet and the best and quickest way to prepare their food, since many of them can't spend a great deal of time on household work.
The course is conducted by Mrs. Jessie Jacobson of the Brooklyn Red Cross nutrition department staff, at the request of Mrs. Louise Heinze, the Brooklyn Tuberculosis and Health Association's rehabilitation supervisor at the hospital. Not long ago, 18 patients received the Red Cross nutrition certificate.
The same sort of thing might well be done in hospitals all over the country. I mention both of these programs because they may serve as suggestions for improving other communities throughout our nation.

A man was killed and a woman is seriously ill in hospital with multiple stab wounds after a "bloodbath" at a house in north east London.
Neighbours in Queens Road, Walthamstow reported hearing a woman screaming and described how doctors performed open surgery on a 46-year-old man in the street, before pronouncing him dead.
A second man, aged 39, also suffered knife wounds and has been arrested on suspicion of murder, police said.
A next-door neighbour said: "We raised the alarm after hearing women screaming next door. When the ambulance arrived, I saw the doctors taking a man out of the house. They lay him down and they cut his chest open to try and save him. It was very upsetting to see. The woman walked out of the house behind him."
Another neighbour described the scene as "horrific" and "bloodbath".
She said: "The doctors did everything they could to save him. They opened him up just in front of our house. I have never seen anything like it. It was horrific."
Residents said medics "opened up" the 46-year-old man and spent nearly an hour fighting to save his life before pronouncing him dead at the scene on Sunday night.
A 25-year-old woman was today seriously ill in hospital with multiple stab wounds.
Police and ambulance services arrived at the property after being called to reports of a "disturbance" at 9.25pm.
Detectives from the Homicide and Serious Crime Command are now appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
Detective Chief Inspector Tim Duffield said: "I would urge anyone that was in the vicinity of Queens Road, E17 around 21.20hrs on 28 October to contact us. Your calls will be treated in the strictest confidence."
A spokeswoman for London Ambulance Service said: "We sent three ambulance crews, a duty officer, a motorcycle responder and London's air ambulance team in a car to the scene.
"Sadly one patient was pronounced dead at the scene by the doctor from the air ambulance. Two further patients were taken to hospital."

The Wave Endorses Glenn DiResto For City Council
Change is in the air. It is not a time for the tried and tired political hacks that have represented Rockaway in the past. It is a time for new blood, for the banishment of old line politics and smoke-filled rooms. It is a time for a City Council candidate to represent Rockaway who does not represent the past. Up until Tuesday, when the court ordered that Glenn DiResto be put back on the ballot, Rockaway residents were offered a poor choice between two mainland candidates, neither of whom knows nor cares much about Rockaway, and two Rockaway candidates who represent the old-line political hacks who have always represented us in the past: Lew Simon and Geraldine Chapey. Now, with Rockaway resident DiResto back on the ballot, we are presented with a real choice. DiResto, a retired NYPD lieutenant with a love for Rockaway and a desire to serve the public, is our candidate of choice. He represents the anti-political, the new breath of fresh air that could invigorate the council the same way that our new administration in Washington, D.C. seems to be invigorating the federal government. We urge you all to get out and vote next Tuesday, February 24, and we urge you to pull the lever for Glenn DiResto.

Date of Stay: October, 2009
Most enjoyable campground we visit. Lots of planned activities for the kids. The Halloween weekends in October are a lot of fun. Staff members are really friendly and very helpful. We plan to visit this campground more this summer.
Date of Stay: October, 2009
Nice quiet campground. Owners are very nice, and they make sure you enjoy your stay. Not a lot to do in this area though. We stayed here because we have friends who live in Taylorsville, and the rates are cheap. They have a fun Haunted Trail the month of October and campers get half off admission. First night we camped there we had a loud group of tent campers beside us but the owners came out and told them they had to be quiet or he would have law enforcement sent to the campground. They remained quieter through out the night but were asked to leave the following morning. If the campground bathhouses were updated it would definitely make for a great campground.
Date of Stay: September, 2009
This was one of our most enjoyable campground experiences. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They constantly patrolled the campground picking up trash and checked to make sure all was well in the evening after quiet time. Very impressive. There were planned activities for the kids and even a live band one night. Only problem was road noise from the close proximity of I-40 but was worth the camping experience. Great back-in spots in the woods but the dump station was out of order at the time of our visit.
Date of Stay: August, 2009
Plenty of activities for the kids. They had a great time. Would definitely recommend this campground to anyone with children. We spent the entire weekend in the park and never ran out of things to do or see.
Date of Stay: July, 2009
The staff was not very friendly. There wasn't allot to offer at the campground, the kids did enjoy the pool. Sunset Beach is close by and is a nice beach to visit.
Date of Stay: May, 2009
Nice campground. We enjoyed our stay even though it rained most of the time. The temperature was very comfortable. The kids had a great time playing with the other kids in the campground. Very family oriented campground.
Date of Stay: March, 2009
This campground is way off the road and very peaceful. Campground had a petting zoo with rabbits, miniature horses and goats. Our kids enjoyed the petting zoo and playing in the creek. Although not a lot to do in the area we had a good time.

The appartment has an unusual but interesting and smart floor plan. Lots of rustic and old feel mixed with modern stuff.
We were missing a pair of scissors and a coffee mug or two, but after a mail to John we got the stuff the same day.
A faint odor from the very bottom of the stairs connecting the loft with the rest of the apartment but it wasn't too bad.
Overall we were very happy with our stay.
The Hollmark family from Stockholm, Sweden.
Nice, clean and perfectly located. Highly recommended!
I went to Paris to spent four days with my sister and I found a very dirty flat. Anyway the neighborhood was very nice. We had to change the sheets because they had stains. Under the table there were some dirty socks. Wifi was available only for first 24 hours. I had to contact with the owner five times and the only answer was "how can I solve the problem?, in most places of Paris there was free wifi."
I wouldn't recommend this flat because it's was a unpleasant experience with it.
We had a wonderful time in Paris and mostly because of our quite small but very comfortable and convenient apartment. It's situated in a strategic position: Although it's really close to any kind of shop and many good restaurants and bars, it's in the internal part of the building so it is very silent. Absolutely suggested.
The apartment is smaller than the pictures, and is no so beauty as the pictures.
Actually this is not a recommendable place.
When we arrived we think "We should have gone to an hotel".
We never met John as from what I understand this is a company of various apartments in Paris, so we were greeted by Guillermo (I presume an employee) a very pleasant guy who was happy to give us some tips on the Area but as he had to shoot off to another apartment could not stay to long and chat.
The flat is small, smaller than the actual pictures (30 m in totall / 2 rooms ) but nice and clean. Kitchen is also smaller in real life! Bathroom is a few years old but clean. To be honest we where a bit disappointed with the size since for this price I think we could have got a larger / nicer flat but due to late booking this was one of the few available for our dates and Area,
Advantages: The area, Le Marais is one of the better spots to stay in Paris , (close to everything) and the district is quite trendy with many places to dine and wine and shops / Galeries and the Sunday market is quite an experience.
Disadvantages, the price and size of apartment, being an attic with fairly high windows does not help too much, although the flat is quite bright.
In all not sure if we got our value for money here, I have seen better flats with similar or lower prices, however the service was good and no real complains with the company or Wimdu
Would I go back to the same flat, I dont think so as next time I would book in advance just to find a better deal for my cash.
Excellent appartment and excellent location. Well equipped and suiteful for a sall family.
The apartment is charming, quiet and well situated. It has everything that you need. I would suggest a couple of improvements : 1. The fridge needs to be changed or fixed as it was leaking water. 2. The extra pillows have to be changed as they were too dirty.
lovely place, and great to communication.
We were absolutely satisfied with the apartment. Mr. Chevry wre very kind with us, the house itself is on a very good place, the public transfer is very good from there. BR Agnes

I have a 46PFL7605H/12 TV.
I have upgraded to the latest firmware 140.46 (used to have 140.40 with the same issue).
I have my TV connected to a netgear router.
So here is the configuration I have entered (static IP, wired) :
mask 255.255.255.240
gateway 10.10.10.14
dns 220.127.116.11
The issues are :
- When I start entering the values, it sets back the previous entered values to 0 : it's hard to setup all values at once
- when all values are finally filled I need to turn off and on the tv to get access to internet working (which is fine) but then
- if I turn the TV off and disconnected from mains (I use a remote controlled power strip, by Philips too) and start the TV again, the network values are still set but I have no connection at all, I try to restore and it sets all values to 0....
It's really painful if I need to set all values each time I turm my TV on...
If this is due to disconnection from mains, it's not normal since all channels are still in memory, the network configuration should also still be here and working.
I never had it work for 2 days....
Has anyone had the same issue, any workaround ?
Any help much appreciated
Thnak you.

The benefits of exerciseSunday, August 20th, 2006
        Walking around AA last night, c. 6:45 p.m., I ran into Rich Ankli around Liberty and Maynard, southeast corner. He told me he thought local media coverage of his recent City Council campaign was not very fair, and he might be right about that. He also asked me if I were with any organization, and I said no, and he said he was the same, and didn't accept any campaign donations from anybody. Maybe Ankli has some lessons to teach us after all…
        Right after that, I ran into emptywheel, see her userpages at Daily Kos and The Next Hurrah; I think the last time I saw her was at YearlyKos in Las Vegas when we were both on C-SPAN (she seated on the stage as part of panel, me as some audience guy at microphone) at the Valerie Plame panel. Ah small world. (She was going to the Michigan Theater to see "Who Killed the Electric Car?", about which I may have a future post…)
        (Also: emptywheel has some seriously obsessed fans, see today's naughtily-titled stiletto-heel-related post from Down Under at Wot Is It Good 4 (When Doves Cry)!! This is what happens when you become a famous blogger…)
        So, there are benefits to walking around instead having a car, after all. Health AND social.

Publication Acceptance Date: 1/10/2002
Publication Date: 1/10/2002
Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: MaizeDB, www.agron.missouri.edu, presents genetic maps integrated with available information about gene expression and function. The database includes map and function documentation, including certain raw data, tool information (probes, clones, genetic stocks), and data sources. This documentation allows for evaluation and reproducibility of the data. Genome function is represented both at the molecular level -- gene products and pathways -- and at the plant level -- inherited phenotypes and agronomic traits. The goals are two-fold: to permit discovery and to drive hypothesis-based research. The potential will be discussed for data access utilities now in production: 1) a BLAST server, adapted to retrieve map information and links to MaizeDB, ZmDB, CUGI, TIGR, and GenBank, in addition to the customary alignments and 2) CMAP, a dynamic, hypertext comparative map viewer, presented last year at this conference, now operates in a database environment and includes, in addition to maize maps, rice and sorghum maps. These tools are the result of collaboration with other groups, notably the Maize Mapping Project and the Rice Genome Program (Japan). MaizeDB is funded by the USDA-ARS.

Alcoholic punch
I'm looking for some alcoholic punch recipes for a halloween party. Any ideas?
#2 Thu 18 Oct 07 7:44am
Re: Alcoholic punch
When we were still in school we used to put red fruit (often cherries from a jar) in lots of vodka the night before the party. Than added wine afternoon before the party and champagne half an hour before the party. Some skipped the wine part too. Then just before the party some people heaped vanilla ice cream onto the punch until there was a whole floating layer. The ice cream would slowly melt and you made sure on every glass of punch to have some of that creamy stuff.
It regularly made me sick (long before I had enough alcohol to be sick) from the sugar and it is definitely ugly and scary enough for halloween. And all of us (well, all but me) really loved it as little 18 year olds.
A yummy though more summer-y one I used to love was dry white wine (a bottle) with a few tbsp each of lemon liqueur and a green melon liqueur. Melons (watermelons mostly, but you could vary) cut into balls for the fruit. Sprite (same amount as wine or slightly less) just before the party for the fizz. The alcohol content is not very high in that one. It is rather refreshing actually. But bright green because of the liqueur....
You might opt for something red though for halloween? Not sure.

Re: Alcoholic punch
You could have "hands" floating in your punch. Freeze juice (or part of your punch) in one way gloves and use the resulting ice hand instead of ice cubes to keep your punch cool.

Re: Alcoholic punch
Good call.
We're going to a Halloween party and I've decided to make red velvet cupcakes with black icing. Any ideas for decoration? I was thinking white iced spiderwebs but I have a feeling it might not show up properly.

st:reshape command ---listing all the variables changing over time?
Thu, 13 May 2010 15:56:57 -0400
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem I met when
using --reshape--command.
When I tried to reshape a data set from long version to wide version,
I find I need to list all the variables that are not constant in the
--reshape--command. Suppose the data set has 1500 variables changing
over time and 100 constant variables.
. reshape wide x1-x1500, i(id) j(wave)
If I miss any of the variables changing over time, the reshape command
will give error message such as "variable XXXX not constant " and will
stop working. But it is so frustrating to separate the constant
variables and not-constant variables and list all of the latter ones
in the reshape command.
What I used to do is just to drop all the unnecessary variables from
the data set before reshape to reduce the work load here.
May I know if there is any more efficient way to deal with this problem?
Thanks for your time!

Gene Expression Testing to Predict Coronary Artery Disease
DESCRIPTIONThe expression levels of various genes in circulating white blood cell or whole blood samples have been reported to discriminate between cases of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and healthy controls. Multiplex gene expression testing can be combined with other risk factors to predict the likelihood of obstructive CAD in patients who present with chest pain or other suggestive symptoms, or in asymptomatic patients who are at high risk of CAD. These tests have potential to improve the accuracy of predicting CAD likelihood. A commercially available Gene Expression Score (GES) test, Corus CAD™, has been developed and validated for this purpose in nondiabetic patients.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. and together with cerebrovascular disease, accounted for 31% of deaths in 2007. Patients with signs and symptoms of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), the result of a chronic inflammatory process that ultimately results in progressive luminal narrowing and acute coronary syndromes, may be evaluated with a variety of tests according to prior risk. Coronary angiography is the criterion standard for diagnosing obstructive CAD, but it is invasive and associated with a low but finite risk of harm. Thus, coronary angiography is recommended for patients at a high prior risk of CAD according to history, physical findings, electrocardiogram, and biomarkers of cardiac injury. For patients initially assessed at low to intermediate risk, observation and noninvasive diagnostic methods, which may include imaging methods such as coronary computed tomographic angiography, may be recommended. Nevertheless, even noninvasive imaging methods have potential risks of exposure to radiation and contrast material. In addition, coronary angiography has a relatively low yield, despite risk stratification recommendations. In one study of nearly 400,000 patients without known CAD undergoing elective coronary angiography, approximately 38% were positive for obstructive CAD (using the CAD definition, stenosis of 50% or more of the diameter of the left main coronary artery or stenosis of 70% or more of the diameter of a major epicardial or branch vessel that was more than 2.0 mm in diameter; result was 41% if using the broader definition, stenosis of 50% or more in any coronary vessel). Thus, methods of improving patient risk prediction prior to diagnostic testing are needed.
A CAD classifier has been developed based on expression levels, in whole blood samples, of 23 genes plus patient age and sex. This information is combined in an algorithm to produce a score from 1 to 40, with higher values associated with a higher likelihood of obstructive CAD. The test is marketed as Corus CAD™ (CardioDx, Inc., Palo Alto, California). The intended population is stable, nondiabetic patients suspected of CAD either because of symptoms, a high-risk history, or a recent positive or inconclusive test result by conventional methods.
Clinical laboratories may develop and validate tests in-house and market them as a laboratory service; laboratory-developed tests (LDTs) must meet the general regulatory standard of the Clinical Improvement Act (CLIA). The Corus CAD™ test is available under the auspices of CLIA. Laboratories that offer LDTs must be licensed by CLIA for high-complexity testing. To date, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has chosen not to require any regulatory review of these tests.
Related medical policies are as follows:
POLICYGene expression testing to predict coronary artery disease (CAD) is considered investigational for all indications, including but not limited to prediction of the likelihood of CAD in stable, nondiabetic patients.
POLICY EXCEPTIONSNone
The coverage guidelines outlined in the Medical Policy Manual should not be used in lieu of the Member's specific benefit plan language.
Investigative is defined as the use of any treatment procedure, facility, equipment, drug, device, or supply not yet recognized as a generally accepted standard of good medical practice for the treatment of the condition being treated and; therefore, is not considered medically necessary. For the definition of Investigative, "generally accepted standards of medical practice" means standards that are based on credible scientific evidence published in peer-reviewed medical literature generally recognized by the relevant medical community, and physician specialty society recommendations, and the views of medical practitioners practicing in relevant clinical areas and any other relevant factors. In order for equipment, devices, drugs or supplies [i.e, technologies], to be considered not investigative, the technology must have final approval from the appropriate governmental bodies, and scientific evidence must permit conclusions concerning the effect of the technology on health outcomes, and the technology must improve the net health outcome, and the technology must be as beneficial as any established alternative and the improvement must be attainable outside the testing/investigational setting.
POLICY HISTORY07/29/2011: Approved by Medical Policy Advisory Committee.
07/17/2012: Policy reviewed; no changes.

Crews Dig Out Beach Hazards on the Goleta Coast
Some date back decades
GOLETA, Calif. - Crews have arrived to dig out beach hazards along the Goleta coastline that were exposed in the March 1 storm.
The work area stretches from the sand near Coal Oil point by UC Santa Barbara to the beach in front of Bacara.
Old wooden posts and steel beams were left behind from oil production decades ago.
They were declared hazards after the storm and several agencies worked together to get a clean up plan in place without a lot of red tape.
They included the State Lands Commission and the City of Goleta.
About $200,000 in funds are available for the project through the Federal Environmental Assistant act.
Some additional funding has also been provided by the city.
Crews with shovels, torches, and some heavy equipment were on the beach this afternoon at low tide to begin
The project will take about two weeks.
Some of the hazards have never been seen by residents or officials with State Lands. They have been covered with sand but the storm took out, in some areas, about 20 feet of the beach to the spot where the beams exist. There are also abandoned on shore pipes and cables that can be seen coming out of the ground just up from the sand. They will also be dug up and cut out.
More details on this story will be posted later.

Ra Ra Riot
"The Rhumb Line"
Sonically, you could lump Ra Ra Riot in with cutesy indie pop bands such as Vampire Weekend or Black Kids - or any group, really, that gained blog buzz in summer 2007 with snappy melodies, sometimes diverse rhythms and a catchy name.
The difference between Riot's full-length debut and releases earlier this year from Vampire Weekend and Black Kids is one of maturity, and maybe also chamber music. Riot isn't interested in being witty or coy, possibly because that was never the band's main focus, and possibly because the quintet has a sense of tragedy beyond its age (coming from the mysterious death of John Pike, Riot's drummer, in June 2007).
That depth comes out on "Rhumb Line's" closer, "Run My Mouth." The lyrics are straightforward and personal, and the instrumental string work makes the track a lushly arranged end to a well-constructed debut.
Most everything leading up to that finish shows the band's potential, with Wesley Miles' voice drifting over cello and violin lines on album opener "Ghost Under Rocks," then over a laidback rock track on "Each Year," or 1980s-fueled synthesizers on "Too Too Too Fast."
"The Rhumb Line" isn't a great debut, but it is a good one, with each song hinting at Ra Ra Riot's chance at a longer career than its peers are likely to get.

March of Dimes Program, City Hall
This episode is from the WNYC archives. It may contain language which is no longer politically or socially appropriate.
Speeches and performances for the rally of the opening of the 1952 March of Dimes campaign on the steps of City Hall.
Earl Wrightson sings the Star Spangled Banner with the 581st Band. MCs Winchell & Mahoney introduce Sam Levenson, who talks about his youth in the neighborhood, recites jump-roping songs. Lanny Ross comes on stage and sings "grown up songs" ("All My Love," "Ritorno a Sorrento"). The Mayor talks about the importance of the work of the March of Dimes to combat the polio epidemic. Earl Wrightson sings "Without a Song." Jan Murray does a stand-up routine about the crowd, reporters, and weather. He is interrupted by a man who explains why there are so many airplanes are flying overhead: they are going to drop March of Dimes pledge parachutes. The audience is instructed to catch one and send it in with their contributions. The band plays "Sleigh Ride." Helen Hayes comes on stage to talk about Larry Jim Gross, the poster boy of the March of Dimes for 1952. Larry Jim then tells everyone to join the March of Dimes and receives the money that's been contributed. It's also Larry Jim's birthday, so everyone sings "Happy Birthday" to him. The radio picks up only Mahoney. Then Winchell asks Mahoney to sneeze for the audience (?). Mahoney says he'll sneeze if Winchell tickles his nose. That goes on for a while. Mahoney introduces Sid Caesar and Imogene Coca. Winchell and Mahoney conclude the show.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Types of ExplosionsWeapon BasedAny explosion that is the direct result of using a weapon; such as a sword laden with explosive magics, or a gun that's been given explosive bullets. The most obvious example is a grenade or a block of TNT. Most guns can be put into this category, given the common firearm mechanism of propelling a bullet out of the gun's barrel through an explosion in the chamber.A larger scale example would be the atomic bomb that a player can detonate on the town of Megaton in Fallout 3.Magic BasedThink Final Fantasy or Dragon Warrior for magic-based explosions in games. Spells such as "Flare" in Final Fantasy and "Explodet" in Dragon Warrior are good examples.In other games, a character may motion with their hand to create a fireball or a beam of powerful light, which will explode upon impact. In Oblivion, the magic-wielding player motions forward with his/her arm and points to create a fireball, which then hurdles through the air, exploding upon any solid surface.Magical "summonings" also create magical explosions, such as Bahamut's attack in most Final Fantasy games.Environment BasedThese explosions emanate from the world around the player. They can activate on their own, or be triggered by the player's actions. Classics, such as the exploding barrel and fuel tank are often large and loud explosions - and in some environments, they can connect with other exploding objects to create a chain-reaction.This also contains objects such as vehicles, booby traps, and mines. This type of explosion can be very important to some games, as explosive environmental objects are often part of objectives or checkpoints in a game.Organic BasedThese explosions are the result of any living thing that is able to explode. A simple example of this would be any kamikaze enemy in a game that's willing to run up to a player and detonate themselves.

The United States will begin recalling its spies from overseas missions because of the government shutdown, the CIA says.
Those asked to return will include individuals necessary for "foreign intelligence collection, all-source analysis, covert action, and counterintelligence", according to a statement released on Tuesday by CIA Director John Brennan.
"Keeping our staffing at the dramatically reduced levels of the past week would pose a threat to the safety of human life and the protection of property," he said.
The number of employees expected to return was not mentioned and managers are still determining who will be recalled under the plan.
Additionally, the guidance does not "guarantee that we will be able to pay our employees during the hiatus", the statement said.
In a similar move, the Pentagon on Saturday announced it would begin recalling most of its furloughed employees.
The US government shutdown was in its eighth day on Tuesday, with hundreds of thousands of workers furloughed, or sent home without pay, after Congress failed to pass a budget for the 2014 fiscal year that began October 1.
The CIA's move will come as congress moves closer towards a deadline to raise the US debt ceiling by October 17.

So what? Iuanes said players get concussed, "shake it off," then come back for more and they totally do.
Players lying or staffs being unaware is a theme, but it's not common throughout all of the examples. And it doesn't disprove Iuanes' point that you strenuously disagreed with.
Aaron Rodgers was diagnosed with his concussion and played the next game. As was
Luc Richard Mbah a Moute
Three years ago, when he was at UCLA, Luc Richard Mbah a Moute sustained a concussion that kept him off the basketball court for eight days, until he completed a series of neurocognitive tests.
That's why the Bucks forward was so surprised when all he needed to return this season following a mild concussion was simply his word to the training staff.
"I didn't have to do any tests because we were on the road and doctors were here," Mbah a Moute said. "They just asked me how I was feeling, and I told them I was feeling better. They were like, 'You're fine."'
Mbah a Moute said he knocked heads with a Dallas defender on Jan. 1 and returned three days later, despite some soreness on his left side of his head. The experience has made him think there should be a league-wide policy to handle every concussion.
"There should be standards in the NBA. You need to do these tests and pass these tests before you can come back on the court. Bottom line. We definitely don't get as bad concussions as football and other sports, but a concussion is a concussion," Mbah a Moute said. "It's a serious injury and there should be tests."
Aaron Rogers passed his tests between the Washington and Miami games, but still, he was allowed to assume a position the NFL now calls defenseless seven days after a concussion.
Iuanes said players in contact sports take big hits, and come back for more the next week, or the next day.
You called that extremely uneducated, said it doesn't happen and asked for examples.
Those are two examples I remembered from just this year. They were diagnosed, and neither missed time. They didn't play the next day, but they did play the next game.
More examples of NFL players who didn't even miss one game after suffering a concussion and being diagnosed: Matt Moore, Marcus Trufant, Jason Witten, Willis McGahee, Tony Scheffler, Demaryius Thomas, Josh Cribbs, and Chris Cooley.
That seems like a lot, and it's only for the first six weeks of the season...
Do you want an example of a player suffering a concussion, being examined by the trainers and doctors, not lying to them and then returned to the game?
How about Kevin Kolb? First game of the year, gets sacked and concussed, looked at by medical staff, and comes in for the next series. Luckily, they had a three and out, he didn't get hit by Matthews again, and the medical staff realized what was wrong before the next series.
His teammate wasn't so lucky. Stewart Bradley was concussed a few plays after Kolb, and despite struggling to get up and stumbling like a drunken sailor in a hurricane, sat out just a couple plays and returned for the rest of the series. Unlike Kolb, he was playing linebacker, and kept making contact. After getting hit a few more times, the medical staff examined him again and realized he had amnesia.
Two players getting concussed and returning to play in the same game... They were both examined and neither of them lied. They were still put in tremendous danger (e.g. second impact syndrome) even if their team didn't mean to do it.
Some people think that they can convey either a philosophy on life or a complex political statement using a signature on the internet. I'm not one of them.

R: st: multile comparison among incidence rates
Thu, 3 Apr 2008 18:56:08 +0200
Dear Svend,
thanks a lot for your kind reply and for the example.
I beg your pardon for having been not clear enough.
Actually, I would like to compare the significant difference of all the
incidence rates.
Patients enrolled to receive drug A reported 200 relapses during a 6-month
Patients enrolled to receive drug B reported 150 relapses during a 6-month
Patients enrolled to receive drug C reported 220 relapses during a 6-month
I have in mind something like multiple comparisons with Bonferroni's
correction via ANOVA with continuous variables, but I do not know whether a
similar procedure does exist in the dichotomous variables setting (I have
unsuccessfully scanned some epidemiology textbook searching for this issue,
but I was not able to find nothing more than chi2 and two-sample
Thanks a lot agin and Kind Regards,

The centre, 26, told Scrum V there is a marked difference in atmosphere within the squad from the pre-Gatland era.
"Before we had senior players who would voice-up a lot and you didn't know who to listen to, was it the senior players or the coaches?" Henson said.
"Sometimes the senior players would overrule the coaches and it didn't quite work."
There has long been rumour and speculation in Wales that under previous head coaches Gareth Jenkins and before him Mike Ruddock it was not always the coach who had the final say.
That situation has previously been denied, but Henson says that since taking up the reins in December it is Gatland and his coaching staff who always call the shots.
"You can see clearly now who the coaches are and who the players are," Henson added.
"It's totally different now, you know where you stand with these coaches and that's the way the players react best.
"Everybody wants to be involved because we can see these are really good coaches and they're going to take us to some good places."
Henson says Wales' RBS Six Nations resurgence is just the start of things under Gatland.
"We can really feel it's going to be a good year, we felt like that before we met up for the England game."
Although Gatland - with a coaching staff that includes Shaun Edwards and Rob Howley - had a matter of weeks to prepare Wales for the Six Nations, they started with a bang.
The first match of the championship was at Twickenham, with Wales coming away with their first win there in 20 years as England self-destructed.
Home wins over Scotland and Italy mean that Wales go to Ireland next week with the Triple Crown there to be won.
Victory at Croke Park would see Wales face France in Cardiff on 15 March with a second Grand Slam in three years up for grabs.
Henson says the difference is down to Gatland, the former Wasps and Ireland coach, introducing new methods and most importantly a new attitude to training.
"I feel I'm learning every day and that's what you want as a player from a coach: to teach you new things and show you a way of playing which inspires you," Henson added.
"It's been refreshing, a different approach to other coaches I've had before and that's what you need.
"They're pretty strict and that's good, there's a lot of respect there and players are on the edge all the time, which is also good.
"I don't think any of us feel comfortable that we're going to be in the team the next week, I'm not sure if I'm going to get picked against Ireland yet.
"I think you're one bad training session away from not getting picked for a game, that's the intensity the training sessions are.
"I made a mistake last week in training and got shouted at, it was my turn last week I think!
"We had a bad training day once and I heard Warren at lunchtime then speaking his mind, 'maybe I should change the team?'
"I thought, 'oh God, is he serious, just after training like?', so people are just working as hard as they can."
"Everyone can see that we're a good team, a good squad, we're going to win things and everyone wants to be in that starting team."
Henson's career has been stymied by injuries and he is only now showing signs that he is approaching the form that won him a place on the 2005 Lions tour to New Zealand.
The Ospreys centre says that he still has immense hunger and ambition to achieve great things in the game.
"There's obviously big games coming up, the Lions, I still haven't been to a World Cup - they are all still there," Henson said.
"I feel like I can play for a lot longer yet as well, my body still feels like it's 19, 20 years old, so there's good times ahead."

Where I stayed
Not much time to do anything in Curitiba before leaving for Florianopolis (Floripa), not that there was much to do in this town, anyway. It's a long 5 hour bus ride to Floripa from here, so the all you can eat buffet was the perfect activity beforehand - nothing like a food-induced coma to make a long bus ride feel only like minutes!
Upon arrival in Floripa, it was a hell of a ride from there to Lago de Conceicao, which is quite a bit farther away than I expected - it ended up being nearly a one-hour bus ride because of traffic, with a further local bus ride to Tucano House, home for the next few days. A massive hostel, it seems like a fun place to rest your weary bones.
Funny - ended up meeting another Miguel, a Spanish engineer from Bilbao who was now living in Michigan. Of course, the conversation turned to the Spanish senoritas, with me lamenting about how difficult it was to get a Spanish wife. He concurred, saying that he had the same problem. Sigh ...
Miguel had some crazy travel stories ... of how one time he was walking along in Colombia and a drug dealer approached him and asked if he wanted to buy anything. Mere seconds after politely declining and walking away, he turned around to hear the dealer mumbling something and loading bullets into a gun. Needless to say, Miguel ran the hell out of there pretty quickly.
But the most interesting story of the night was when we all went out for a drink to celebrate the birthday of a girl that was staying at Tucano House. It was a bit of a sausage fest at the hostel, and there weren't too many girls out tonight - so three or four guys ended up fighting over dances with the birthday girl. One guy complained when another guy took her on the dance floor, claiming some type of ownership over the poor girl, and then a subsequent guy tried to grab her away from the second guy mid-dance. Too funny!

Washington Township mayor, workers locked in thermostat battle
WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP — The mayor's attempts to cut heating costs have several employees who say it is too cold in town hall tinkering with the building's thermostats, officials said.
Council Vice President Fred Goetz and Councilman Joseph D'Urso said they received complaints from several town employees about building temperatures. Township Administrator Catherine Navarro-Steinel said the building is drafty and needs weatherproofing work, including a new roof.
Mayor Janet Sobkowicz said efforts are being made to regulate the temperature and windows at town hall are being caulked.
But she said Tuesday that she has seen the thermostat turned up to 87 degrees in some areas of town hall.
"I think that is too hot to work in," she said.
Goetz and D'Urso brought up the issue at Monday's Township Council meeting, saying that multiple complaints have been lodged.
Sobkowicz acknowledged during the meeting that she has been trying to reduce heating bills.
She said "72 degrees should be the max," adding, "I think that temperature's very generous."
Last year, Sobkowicz said, she instituted a policy "where you can keep the thermostat at 65 to 68 degrees, depending on the situation."
During the recent cold spell, Sobkowicz said she told employees to turn the heat up to 72 degrees.
After Monday's meeting, Goetz said that three township employees told him Sobkowicz "locks the thermostats in the building that can be locked" at 65 degrees.
The mayor said plastic, lockable covers were installed over thermostats when the building was constructed. She said that she is working to identify problems with town hall's heating system. "The system is erratic," she said. "It must have been this way all the time. Now, we will make the heating system more efficient, which is something we are working on it right now."

1. Does the journey seem long,The path rugged and steep?Are there briars and thorns on the way?Do sharp stones cut your feetAs you struggle to riseTo the heights thru the heat of the day?
2. Is your heart faint and sad,Your soul weary within,As you toil 'neath your burden of care?Does the load heavy seemYou are forced now to lift?Is there no one your burden to share?
3. Let your heart be not faintNow the journey's begun;There is One who still beckons to you.So look upward in joyAnd take hold of his hand;He will lead you to heights that are new--
4. A land holy and pure,Where all trouble doth end,And your life shall be free from all sin,Where no tears shall be shed,For no sorrows remain.Take his hand and with him enter in.

I think the last achievement was directed towards the younger population...
I don't like how the Lich King achievement says "Defeat", and not "Slay"...
Aww &*!@! Get yo towels ready it's about to go DOWN!
Blizzard sure loves to reference pop culture.
lol I'm on a boatBest Achievment ever!
Escape from the Lich King in under 2 hours and 11 seconds...?Hopefully this is a placeholder cause a 2 hour 5 man is a REALLY long 5 man...
would make more sence if that meant completing the 3 5man dungeons in 2 h .
Im on a Boat./win
The "Dangerous Love" achievement has me worried. I can't get near any of those damn goblins without them beating my face. Hopefully there will be a way to get the achievement done without having to fix up your rep with the Steamwheedle Cartel.
i gues they should just add the title "<name> he who has prove he has no life" for everybody that reach the achieventserious, world of warcraft is just a game and there are to other things in life
Title: <name>, what does the scouter say about his achievement level?
Any news on the PvP achievement changes?
yawn... bad patch.
Yea but over 9000 is still great to all DBZ fans
ITS OVER NINE THOUSAND!(Was waiting for an achivement to be named that way, god knows how much...). Not too shabby patch, also we know that it will be before the love fool :D. Oh yeah also im bit angry cause I got the love fool title the hard way :@

Date of Stay: October, 2011
On the last day of our stay we requested to stay another day. Three hours later, we changed our minds and went back to the office to get a refund. The manager of this half-empty park had an extremely nasty attitude and refused to refund our money, saying it was KOA's policy not to issue refunds without 48 hours notice and he stood by this policy, although we had only requested the extension of one day three hours earlier. He was so nasty and the park was so overpriced that we will never choose a KOA park again.
Date of Stay: August, 2011
We loved this park! The owners were so friendly and helpful. The sites were spacious and the grounds were green with trees and grass. We had off-and-on issues with Wi-Fi but had great signal for AT&T connection. We were out looking at so many sights in the area we hardly had time for computers anyway. We would definitely stay here again.

I've been doing quite well with the Nicot system producing queen cells. I've been inserting queen cells into a mating nuc but only about 25% of the queens get mated and find their way back to the mating nuc.
I picked up a tip by stapling a playing card to the front of the mating nuc to give the queen a visual pattern that this is home. Still, I'm not getting queens to return to the mating nuc.
Or at least that's what I'm guessing. Maybe the other bees are killing the queens? There are no other queen cells produced from the frames pulled for the mating nuc and later inspection shows capped brood and no other indications of a mated queen.
Any thoughts or suggestions,

Czechs, Japan into Davis Cup last eight
By Nick Reeves, AFP Tuesday, February 4, 2014, 8:15 am TWN
PARIS--The Czech Republic kept their Davis Cup three-peat bid on track while Japan reached the World Group quarter-finals for the first time on Sunday as first round ties concluded.
Great Britain notched their first World Group win since 1986 as Andy Murray beat Sam Querrey in San Diego to give the Brits a 3-1 victory over the United States.
Britain next face Italy, who downed Argentina in Mar del Plata thanks to Fabio Fognini's third victory in as many days.
In Ostrava, the Czech Republic held the upper hand 2-1 going into the reverse singles against the Netherlands and Tomas Berdych bagged the all-important third point with a three-set win over lowly ranked Thiemo de Bakker.
The Dutch claimed the final dead rubber when Igor Sijsling saw off Lukas Rosol giving the Czechs a 3-2 victory and a last eight date with Japan, who beat Canada in Tokyo.
There was an air of anti-climax about Japan's feat after Canada's Frank Dancevic retired injured from his rubber with Kei Nishikori.
Go Soeda thrashed Peter Polansky 6-1, 6-4 in the dead final rubber to complete a 4-1 rout over last year's semi-finalists.
"It's a bit hard being overjoyed to win like that but to make history is unbelievable," Nishikori, the world number 18, reflected.
The Czechs may have to travel to Tokyo without their star player, world number seven Berdych.
"I've won the salad bowl twice, I've given the team a lot over the past 10, 11 years. I'd say a rest would be fully deserved," he had warned earlier.
In California, where the United States hosted Britain on a clay court set up at Major League Baseball ground Petco Park, world number six Murray gained the crucial point with a 7-6 (7/5), 6-7 (3/7), 6-1, 6-3 win over Querrey — the top US player in action after the late injury withdrawal of John Isner.
Querrey had been stunned on Friday by Britain's James Ward, who won 10 of the last 11 games in a remarkable five-set fight-back that helped the visitors take a 2-0 lead on the opening day on which Murray also crushed Davis Cup newcomer Donald Young.
After the crack doubles duo of Bob and Mike Bryan pulled back a point for the Americans on Saturday, Murray relished his chance to put the tie away.
"You want to try and contribute as much as possible in these weeks," Murray said. "James had a great win against Sam the first day to put us in that position and it was up to me today to try and close it out."
The final score stood at 3-1 after the fifth match was cancelled.

Allure of the Seas June 1-8: Allure of the Seas Cruise Review by mollychipper
Overall Member Rating
Allure of the Seas June 1-8
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
Just embarking on this boat was remarkable. You just walk through the door and the 'WOW" experience starts. We are platinum sailors on royal Caribbean and we didn't have to wait long to embark on the ship. We were on board with in 30 minutes and enjoying our lunch in the windjammer. I like the way they do things in there as they seat you first and then you go and get your food. No more looking for tables and trying to figure out where your party is. We haven't been on a Royal Caribbean boat for a few years, so we really enjoyed getting back to the line. We really like the different food stations that are set up in the More windjammer. Never really have to wait in a long line as it is all free flowing. As unlike Carnival, there is just one or two lines on either side and you can wait forever. I purchased the drink packaged the premium one. It worked out well for me. I was able to drink pretty much what I wanted for the whole week including water and soda. I also was able to have a specialty drink in labadee.
We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise, the only time it felt like there was a lot of people on the boat was on sea days. Very hard to find a seat unless you get up early to stack out a seat. My kids thoroughly enjoyed all of the activities on this boat from flow rider to the zip line. Make sure you go have a pretzel dog at the wipe out café. They are pretty awesome. The only thing I think this ship is missing is the attention to detail that you get on other ships. I think the ship being to big you miss that separate attention. We did my time dining and enjoyed our servers. In Falmouth, Jamaica we traveled to Dunn's falls for the 2nd time. It was just as good as the first time. The water is so refreshing and enjoyable. In Cozumel, we snorkeled and went to Fury beach. We had a great time. We then traveled into town to eat and drink at Wet Wendy's. The best food and margaritas we've had in Cozumel. Overall, we really enjoyed the Allure of the Seas. Looking forward to going on the Quantum when it comes out. We really enjoy Royal Caribbean ships and look forward to getting on them again soon.
