Jubilant Far Rock Seahorses Win In OT
There was a moment last Wednesday afternoon when an exuberant crowd inside the Far Rockaway gymnasium hushed to an almost complete silence.
That was the moment of breathless anticipation with five seconds left in overtime between host Far Rockaway and Springfield Gardens.
Far Rockaway's Antoine White Jr. overcame an Eagles double team outside the three-point line. His pass found a wide open Dominique Jennings underneath the basket, who converted the bucket as time ran out in a Seahorses 64-62 Queens A East Divisional win.
Jennings, a sophomore forward, was inserted into the game in overtime when starting 6-5 center Daniel Marc Sears (17 points) fouled out. He got his chance to shine.
"It was a good pass," Jennings, who scored his fourth point of the game, said. "I was thinking layup. I had time, a lot of time. I had time to make it."
Idryis Faison scored 17 points for the Seahorses and Springfield Gardens was led by Timothy Johnson with 18 points.
As soon as the buzzer sounded, the crowd erupted and ran onto the court while Jennings was mobbed by his teammates. It was a euphoric scene.
Far Rockaway held a slim 58-56 lead with under five seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Springfield Gardens' Travis Butler unleashed a desperate full-court heave at the basket to tie the game.
As time expired, Chukwuemek Okloji (12 points) grabbed the loose ball and was fouled on a reach in by Sears. An upset Seahorses team, along with an angry crowd. watched Okloji calmly sink two free throws to send the game into overtime.
Sears didn't believe the call was right.
"I saw a loose ball. He didn't have possession of the ball and I tried to go for it to end the game and they said I pushed him," Sears said.
But Far Rockaway didn't bow down to the growing pressure, which has made coach Mark Bacchus quite a happy man at times this season. He was at the helm when everything went wrong last year as the team went 0-16.
But the confidence, along with their improved play on the court, has elevated Far Rockaway to a 3-2 record and second place in the division. The players are starting to believe in their ability on the court, which is what Bacchus wanted all along to happen.
"I felt a little more down. He made both free throws. My hopes went from its high, the game is over. to now we're in a dogfight," Bacchus said.
"I didn't know if my kids' emotions would go down here or they would step it up and persevere over the adversity they faced, and they did that big time."
The chaos and the friction that was apparent to most observers in last year's team have virtually disappeared.
"We trust each other," said sophomore guard Jamal Benn. "We got heart and dedication because our teammates believe what we can do.
Accountability and responsibility seem to be the key components that have accounted for their better play. Teammates rebuked leading scorer Joel Johnson for showing off for the crowd and attempting a dunk in a 52- 43 victory over August Martin earlier in the week.
Johnson broke his right hand on the play with only 11 seconds left in the game and will be out until mid- January.
While Johnson admitted it was a hard lesson to learn with his arm wrapped up, his teammates have a growing hunger, pushing them to believe that they will be able to overcome his absence.
White, who scored 11 points, transferred back to the school after playing for the junior varsity team as a freshman. He says the team's attitude is healthy enough to make a run at the division title.
"All I wanted to do was just win, especially with the record they had last year. I just wanted to win," White Jr. said. Far Rockaway hasn't made the playoffs and acquired a winning record since going 10-5 in the 2003-04 campaign.
If they win today at home against John Bowne in the final game before the Christmas holiday break, the Seahorses could improve to 4-2 and will surely feel good about themselves during the recess.
"The crowd was into it, the kids believe and the crowd knows we have a good team. Everyone wants to come out and see a good product," Bacchus said.

Photo of the Day by sushi_90092014-06-28 1 2 Share Tweet
The strong contrast and whacked out colors from cross processing slide films always give a great contrast to dramatic silhouette snapshots. Congratulations to sushi_9009 for having our Photo of the Day!
What's not to love about slide film and the Lomo LC-A+ combination? The amazing color shifts, lovely saturation and the dramatic effect are all killers in the aesthetics department. Take this photo from community member sushi_9009 for example, isn't it a head turner of a photo? sushi_9009 shot this photo using a *Lomo LC-A+* loaded with Agfra CT Precisa 100 film and you can see more photos in this album.

This is truly one of the most unique hotels I have stayed at. The building is over a hundred years old with windows overlooking old cobble stone streets. However, it has been completely renovated with today's luxuries yet has kept the cozy historic feeling. My room had a real wood burning fireplace and wood beams on the ceiling keeping the historic charm. But It also had a large bathroom with granite counter tops and a separate shower and garden tub. The location if perfect. I Highly recommend this hotel and will be staying here again when I am in Boston.read more

Submitted to: Annual Meeting and Expo of the American Oil Chemists' Society
Publication Type: Abstract Only
Publication Acceptance Date: 5/14/1997
Publication Date: N/A
Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes) is a promising new winter annual seed crop grown in the Pacific Northwestern U.S. that is establishing a role as an alternate crop. One aspect in the development of meadowfoam into a commercial crop is the utilization of its unique chemical structure for the manufacture of industrially useful compounds. In an effort to address this sissue, we developed a process for making branched oxygenated fatty esters. These branched derivatives have good low temperature properties and viscosities not typically associated with vegetable oils. Ethers can be obtained from 5-hydroxy fatty acids or delta lactones using Lewis or Bronsted acid catalysts in yields of 70-90%. The conversion of delta lactone or 5-hydroxy fatty acid to 5-ethers is performed under atmospheric pressures from 80-130 C with 0.5-2 mole equivalents of acid catalyst in the presence of 2-40 equivalents of alcohol and a reaction time of 2-24 hours. Acid catalysts include mineral acids such as perchloric and sulfuric, Lewis acids such as boron triflouride and zinc chloride and heterogeneous catalysts such as clays and ion-exchange resins. Alcohols can be normal or branched chain, primary or secondary. The 5-ether fatty acids and the process for their formation has not been previously known and appears to be limited to structures where stabilized cations can be formed.


text: A curious kitten tumbles around the house doing such silly cat things as spider-catching and sofa-scratching. Newbery's prose—"Posy! / She's a... / whiskers wiper, / crayon swiper. / Playful wrangler, / knitting tangler"—is as bouncy as her subject, and her characterizations will be easily recognized by anybody who shares living space with a feline. The brief text puts a spotlight on the illustrations, and they deserve it: Rayner's watercolor-and-ink creations are what separates this from other cute-kitty tales. The scribbly texture of the ink and the softness of the tabby-toned watercolors create an opposing energy that almost animates the images and serves Posy's pouncing, clawing and rolling well. The simplicity of telling that allows these images to take center stage creates a format dilemma, however—with only four to eight words per spread, the text seems more suited for a board book, but the beauty of the illustrations demands the large trim and creamy, matte stock. Preschoolers and even toddlers may well wish for more substance to support the sophisticated visuals. (Picture book. 2-4)

Stautner, who went to nine Pro Bowls with the Steelers and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1969, had Alzheimer's disease since 1998, Jill Stautner said. He died in a home in Carbondale, Colo.
For years, the chiseled Stautner — undersized for his position when he starred during the 1950s — was an assistant under Dallas coach Tom Landry. He counted former Cowboys Randy White and Bob Lilly among his closest friends.
"He loved all those guys, he loved them all," Jill Stautner said. "If they were willing to work, he loved them all."
Stautner coached the defensive line for the Cowboys from 1966 to 1972 and also served as the defensive coordinator from 1973 to 1988. Stautner was with the Steelers for his entire 14-year career, never playing on a winning team but establishing a reputation for a strong work ethic on a punishing Steelers defense.
Stautner was born in Germany and immigrated with his family to Albany, N.Y., when he was 3. After serving in the U.S. Marines, Stautner played at Boston College and was selected by the Steelers in the third round of the 1950 NFL draft.
Survivors include his wife, five daughters and six grandchildren. Services will be in Lewisville, Texas.

Taking aim in the waterfowl Mecca
I have been hearing for many years about Devils Lake, N.D., and what it offers to the duck and goose hunter.
I remember seeing photos of my brother and dad and the birds they bagged in Devils Lake while I was left behind back in elementary school. Just last week I was able to experience the waterfowl Mecca for myself. It was all it had been cracked up to be and then some.
We joined up with guide Jason Mitchell at Woodland Resort and spent a couple of days with him. There is a lot that goes into this type of field hunting and I would say that between the scouting, decoy setting and hunting, that this really is work.
After two days of hunting I was quite wiped and had burning thighs from the crunches I was doing in the blind (up and down, peeking out for birds). And the knees were not feeling too swell either from kneeling in sparse cover one of the days. Can you say out of shape? Yes, a little bit. But boy oh boy was it worth every minute! Our best shoot happened on the evening of day two where we had mallards by the hundreds circling over the top of our homemade cattail blind.
I know duck can get a bad rap for its taste but we did join up with Marty, Laura and Scott Glorvigen at their quaint little duck camp and let me tell you that we had some of the best duck shore lunch ever made!
Duck down, Walleyedan.

charter promised a price{quoted to the penny} for their service for a locked in time period. when the bills arrived the cost was $60 more annually than promised. when charter was contacted, they said it was a tax increase{which has NOT occurred}. then they said the {to the penny} price quote was an estimate. even though 2 employees, on 2 different occaisions quoted me the lower price.

MQM London office was raided on 6th December 2012 in the early hours by Scotland yard.According to Pakistani news channels,Scotland Yard raided the business address of Edgware road and carried out a search of an office for 10 hours in connection with Dr. Imran Farooq murder case.
The address of the office which was raided is below:
54 – 58, First Floor, Elizabeth House, High Street
Edgware, Middlesex, HA8 7EJ, United Kingdom
According to Express News correspondent Naseem Siddiqui said that the London Metropolitan police raided an office on Thursday morning. Officials questioned those present in the office and also reportedly confiscated some records.
MQM supporters here in Pakistan have rejected this claim, and the word raid.They said that it was a routine visit by Metropolitan police for the office, but all the news channels and UK based channels have used the word raid as MQMs office remained under search for 10 hours.
Appealing for an investigation, the Metropolitan police also announced a £20,000 reward for providing any information linked to his assassination.

The government of New South Wales, Australia, issued a draft document last fall entitled NSW Location Intelligence Strategy (pdf) that entails a comprehensive plan to leverage location-based information to improve government services and establish better governance for sharing information. Recently, the plan was released (pdf) by the Minister of Finance and Services. The plan lists a set of priorties as follows:
The implementation of NSW Location Intelligence Strategy will be guided by an Action Plan which sets actions and tasks for each of the five strategic initiatives in the Strategy.
- Build awareness, capacity and capability by promoting the importance, value and benefits of location intelligence to the State's public, private and community sectors.
- Integrate governance and coordination by reviewing current location intelligence sharing practices and develop a new framework that provides integrated governance and coordination across all location intelligence providers in NSW.
- Identify and manage government location-based data by establishing whole-of-government processes for identifying, collecting and managing authoritative location-based data.
- Link NSW Government data to location by ensuring a location dimension is available for all key NSW Government economic, social and environmental data.
- Leverage whole-of-government location platforms and services by ensuring all NSW Government location intelligence can be easily accessed and utilised by government, industries and communities.
This is a wholistic approach to apply location-based information across government services and recognizes the value of geospatial information not just for typical mapping applications in tax assessment and urban planning but also for health and finance. The report summarizes the value of Location Intelligence this way:
Location Intelligence (New place-based knowledge) = Location-based information (i.e. Spatial Data) + Business Information
The reason for undertaking such an analysis of the importance of location-based information across multiple disciplines and the business value to the government is summed as follows:
At present, the benefits of location intelligence are not being fully realised across NSW. Government datasets that incorporate location-based information cannot be easily accessed and analysed with reliability across NSW Government agencies. There remains too much duplication of effort collecting similar data, too little reuse and too few linkages across key datasets which is costly and inefficient ... The Strategy provides the impetus for action and a roadmap that clearly sets out what needs to be done, when, how and by whom. It provides a consistent and integrated governance framework to ensure the coordination of location intelligence in NSW. The Strategy ensures that NSW keeps pace with world best practice location intelligence management.

(MIAMI) — It wasn't what Miami fans wanted to see from LeBron James against his former team on Tuesday night, but they'll take the win.
The Cavaliers found a way to shut down their former All-Star on Tuesday by limiting James to only 18 points. It was Chris Bosh who led the way for Miami with 35 points, including 17 in the fourth quarter to put Miami past Cleveland, 92-85.
"Whenever I play and I don't hesitate, good things happen," Bosh said.
Dwyane Wade remained on the sidelines with sprained right ankle. The Heat are now 7-1 this season without Wade in the lineup.

CBS Radio announces that it is flipping Modern Rock WKRK (Radio 92.3)/Cleveland to FM Sports as Sports Radio 92.3 The Fan, effective Monday, August 29. CBS promises the new station "will feature locally produced programs hosted by familiar Cleveland voices, along with headline updates every 20 minutes and a full lineup of NFL and college football play-by-play coverage. The station will be available on-air, on-line at www.923TheFan.com and via the Radio.com application for a variety of mobile devices." Andy Roth has been named as PD of the 92.3 The Fan. He joins the station from WGR-AM/Buffalo, and also has experience at WFAN/New York and WIP/Philadelphia. Roth said, "What we are launching is literally a radio station for The Fan. For Clevelanders who live and breathe sports 24/7 this will be the place to get the best insight, most in-depth coverage and a well-rounded balance of listener participation all presented in an entertaining forum."
Kevin Kiley will team up with Clevelands own Chuck Booms weekday mornings from 6-10 a.m., while Adam "The Bull," formerly of WFAN, will fill afternoon drive. The remainder of The Fan lineup will be announced at a later date. 92.3 The Fan will also be the new home for Westwood Ones coverage of the NFL including all but one of the national football broadcasts on Thursday, Sunday and Monday nights; and Big 10 football. Additional programming will include postgame shows immediately following all the local professional football, basketball and baseball games, as well as appearances by players, coaches, and media experts. CBS Radio-Cleveland SVP/Market Manager Tom Herschel added, "CBS Radio is the leader when it comes to the all-sports format. Having the pioneering station (WFAN) among our portfolio along with a number of new entrants to the FM dial in major markets across the country we are confident we know what it takes to make this move a success in Cleveland."

Early treatment for HIV
Early HIV treatment
The right time to start treating HIV patients is a balance between benefits, risks and costs, and at the moment, most people are not treated until their immune system function has deteriorated by about half. However guidelines are constantly changing as new research is published. To address this pertinent issue, a new lengthy trial studied what happens when people start medication as soon as they are infected with HIV. The idea was to discover whether starting the drugs immediately delays life-long treatment and prevents damage to the immune system. Dr Sarah Fidler is a senior lecturer in Infectious Diseases at Imperial College London.
German Transplant Scandal
Three people die per day in Germany waiting for a donor organ and roughly 12,000 are on the waiting list, but these figures are expected to rise in the wake of a scandal that has deeply shaken the public's faith in its health system. Investigations are underway in all of Germany's 47 transplantation centres, and so far they have uncovered over 150 cases of organ transplant fraud where doctors have been faking their patient's records to help them jump the waiting list. The investigations continue, but in the meantime donor figures have slumped and there are calls for the whole system to be changed. The BBC's Germany reporter Abby d'Arcy finds out more.
Hearing Loss and Cognitive Decline
In the US 2000 older people were followed for six years while their hearing loss and memory and thinking skills were tested regularly. After recently discovering that people with a hearing problem can be two or three times more likely to develop dementia, researchers wanted to know whether hearing can affect everyone's memory and thinking skills as they get older. The results are out and have just been published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine. Dr Frank Lin is Assistant Prof of Ear, Nose & Throat & Epidemiology at Johns Hopkins University.

If organizations want to keep their employees happy, they'll let them bring their own devices to use at work such as the iPhone, iPad and Mac laptops.
Citrix Systems announced the results of the Citrix Bring-Your-Own (BYO) Index revealing that 92% of IT organizations are aware that employees are using their own devices in the workplace and 94%intend to have a formal BYO policy in place by mid-2013, up from 44% today.
The research found that attracting and retaining the highest quality talent, increased worker productivity and mobility and greater employee satisfaction, as well as reducing IT costs, are the primary drivers of BYO adoption.
"There are two reasons that BYO is being embraced within organizations," says Mick Hollison, vice president, Desktop Marketing & Strategy, for Citrix.

InhaltsverzeichnisIntroduction Historical Legacies Racial and Ethnic Identity Choices West Indians at Work Encountering American Race Relations Intergenerational Dynamics Segregated Neighborhoods and Schools Identities of the Second Generation Immigrants and American Race Relations Appendix: Notes on Methodology Notes Index
PortraitMary C. Waters is M. E. Zukerman Professor of Sociology at Harvard University.
PressestimmenIt would be fair to say that most Americans are not aware of the wide variety of ethnicities that exist among the black Caribbeans migrating to this country. Determined to render visible Caribbean immigrants and their families, Waters undertook an exhaustive research project. Here she compares Jamaican, Barbadian, Trinidadian, and Guyanese immigrants to their Irish and Italian counterparts of the turn of the last century, and because the issue of race so strongly shapes everyday life for people of color in this society, she examines the relationships between (and differences among) American blacks and black Caribbean immigrants. Drawing from interviews with several generations of immigrants, Waters reports a wide range of discoveries--including her finding that the Caribbean immigrants who resist Americanization are the most likely to succeed. And excellent history and a multifaceted analysis of current immigration issues. -- Deborah Bigelow Library Journal Waters tackles an important problem, one filled with implications, to say nothing of consequences, for our new century...It is, however, the story of ordinary West Indian immigrants that Waters wants to tell, and here is where her field work, which is to say, the collection of immigrant voices across a spectrum of attitudes and generations, is of enormous value. -- Sanford Pinsker The Virginia Quarterly Review

Puerto Natales is the main base for the hiking mecca of the Torres del Paine National Park. In season I imagine the town to be buzzing with people either setting out for or returning from the wildly popular three day trek to see the towers. This being low season it was much quieter. And wetter.
I went for a walk in the cold rain reflecting on how much I enjoyed the boat trip
He asked me about the cricket world cup so I jumped on the internet so get the news from the last few days and also to check the weather forecast for the park. I don't know what was worse: England's performance or the scheduled rain and wind. As I was reading in walked Lesbian Jo, last seen in Bariloche the week before. Another complete conincidence, she had just come back from a day trip to the park while she had seen nothing but rain and clouds while getting frozen. French Franck was still trying to convince me to join him in a three day hike but I decided to take a chance on tomorrow's weather and booked a one-day guided tour instead.
Crammed into a minibus with a few boat people - including Dolly and Ernie whose clicking dentures were telling the English people how he once lived in London in 1956-9 for only five guineas a week - we set off through the rain in the darkness
Back at Puerto Natales I decided there was no need to stay. The town had a hungover air about it following the busy summer season so the next day I took a bus with Jo a few hours north to the town of El Calafate across the border in Argentina. There were two things I want to do there: teach the locals how to play football without using their hands, and to go and see some big-ass glaciars.

|st: Labelling part of graph axis?
|Mon, 26 Sep 2005 13:52:20 -0700 (PDT)
I am using Stata 8.2. I am graphing a coefficient estimated on repeated cross sections over several years. On the y-axis I want to label the region of the graph that is above zero as "Positive effect" and also label the region of the graph that is below zero as "Negative effect." I know this may seem silly, but the audience is not well-versed in stats and I believe this will help the presentation. Also, there are several other similar graphs for which labelling regions of the y-axis would be useful. So, after perusing the graph manual, and the nice book "A Visual Guide to Stata Graphics" I still do not know some way to accomplish this aim. Any ideas? Thanks a bunch for your help.

The evocatively named house production duo Klangkarussell -- which translates to English as "Sound Carousel" -- was formed in Salzburg, Austria by Tobias Rieser and Adrian Held. While Rieser originally used the name for his solo project, Held worked under the name i herald until the pair teamed up. The jazz-tinged instrumental "Sonnentanz" was issued in 2012 and eventually reached the Top 10 in six different countries, even hitting the number one spot in the Netherlands. When a vocal version -- retitled "Sonnentanz (Sun Don't Shine)" and featuring British soul singer Will Heard -- was released the following summer, the track charted both in the U.K. and Ireland. ~ James Wilkinson

Cabarete, on the northern shore of the Dominican Republic, began attracting windsurfers in the 1990s with its whipping gales. Today, the consensus windsurfing and kiteboarding capital of the Caribbean retains its hip, laid-back vibe by catering to a youthful crowd, even if more people come to hang out than surf these days. Cabarete resists the overdevelopment of many Caribbean beach towns, instead embracing what Frommer's calls "a radical counterculture devoted to sun, fun, watersports, and good times." Spend a few days on the white sands of Playa Cabarete and you'll think the place is pretty rad, too.
The Digs
The Viva Wyndham Tangerine is a peach of an all-inclusive resort on the beach in Cabarete. The sandy locale influences the décor, with rooms featuring tropical accents and a palette of vibrant yellows and blues. Rooms also offer amenities like private balconies, cool cotton bedding, and daily housekeeping.
Beyond the accommodations, the resort welcomes families with a slew of on-site restaurants and activities. Children will enjoy participating kids programs, splashing in the oceanfront pool, and playing in the surf. A full-service spa boasts an extensive menu of massages, body scrubs, and other relaxing treatments for grown ups. And guests of all ages and tastes can find something delicious to eat at the resort's five restaurants, serving up everything from Italian to authentic Mexican cuisine.
The Diversions
Your family will never run out of cool things to do in Cabarete and nearby Puerto Plata. Start by building sandcastles on Playa Cabarete, then kick it up a notch with kiteboarding and windsurfing offered by the resort. In Puerto Plata, take a trip to the Amber Museum or visit El Faro, the 137-foot cast-iron lighthouse. Children will love Ocean World, an outdoor adventure park where visitors can swim with the dolphins.

On the night of April 23 to 24, ESO's Very Large Telescope observed fragment B of the comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 that had split a few days earlier. To their great surprise, the ESO astronomers discovered that the piece just ejected by fragment B was splitting again! Five other mini-comets are also visible on the image. The comet seems thus doomed to disintegrate but the question remains in how much time.
Comet P73/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 (SW 3) is a body with a very tormented past. This comet revolves around the Sun in about 5.4 years, in a very elongated orbit that brings it from inwards of the Earth's orbit to the neighbourhood of giant planet Jupiter. In 1995, when it was coming 'close' to the Earth, it underwent a dramatic and completely unexpected, thousand-fold brightening. Observations in 1996, with ESO's New Technology Telescope and 3.6-m telescope, at La Silla, showed that this was due to the fact that the comet had split into three distinct pieces. Later, in December 1996, two more fragments were discovered. At the last comeback, in 2001, of these five fragments only three were still seen, the fragments C (the largest one), B and E. No new fragmentations happened during this approach, apparently.
Things were different this time, when the comet moved again towards its closest approach to the Sun - and to the Earth. Early in March, seven fragments were observed, the brightest (fragment C) being of magnitude 12, i.e. 250 fainter than what the unaided can see, while fragment B was 10 times fainter still. In the course of March, 6 new fragments were seen.
Early in April, fragment B went into outburst, brightening by a factor 10 and on 7 April, six new fragments were discovered, confirming the high degree of fragmentation of the comet. On 12 April, fragment B was as bright as the main fragment C, with a magnitude around 9 (16 times fainter than what a keen observer can see with unaided eyes). Fragment B seems to have fragmented again, bringing the total of fragments close to 40, some being most probably very small, boulder-sized objects with irregular and short-lived activity.
The new observations reveal that this new small fragment has split again! The image clearly reveals that below the main B fragment, there is a small fragment that is divided into two and a careful analysis reveals five more tiny fragments almost aligned. Thus, this image alone shows at least 7 fragments. The comet has thus produced a whole set of mini-comets!
Will the process continue? Will more and more fragments form and will the comet finally disintegrate? How bright will the fragments be when the comet will be the closest to the Earth, on 11 to 14 May, and how many new fragments will have appeared before the comet reaches its closest approach to the Sun, around 7 June?
Fragment C of the comet should be the closest to Earth on 11 May, when it will be about 12 million km away, while fragment B will come as 'close' as 10 million km from Earth on 14 May. Although this is the closest a comet ever approached Earth in more than twenty years - even Comet Hyakutake's smallest distance was 15 million km - this is still 26 times the distance between the Earth and the Moon and therefore does not pose any threat to our planet.
If nothing else happens, at the time of closest approach, fragment B will be just visible with unaided eye by experienced observers. It should be an easy target however to observe with binoculars. If we are lucky, however, fragment B presents another outburst, becoming a magnificent sight in the night sky. On the other hand, it could just as well fade away into oblivion. But then, the main fragment C should still be visible, even possibly with the unaided eye.
ESO telescopes will observe the comet in the greatest detail at the end of May, when it is best observed from Chile and is brighter. These observations will obtain invaluable information, especially as the fragmentation process is revealing all the pristine material buried below the crust of the comet. As such, these observations will prove an ideal complement to the most comprehensive observation campaign made with ESO telescopes of Comet Tempel 1 when it was being bombarded by the Deep Impact spacecraft, on 4 July 2005.

Capcom's attempts to provide better performance under DX10 have clearly paid dividends for nVidia's cards as they consistently perform ever so slightly better in DX10 with AA disabled. Once AA is enabled the situation is reversed with DX9 just beating DX10 but even so it's still a decent effort.
For the ATI cards the situation isn't quite so rosy and moving to DX10 without AA causes a huge drop in performance. Enabling AA does even things up dramatically but that's unfortunately due to DX9 being equally bad as DX10.
Overall, we again see the supposedly midrange cards performing quite appallingly with none of our tested resolutions providing playable frame rates. Dropping in-game settings will help to improve things but even so this isn't a good situation.

First preview for Sizwe Banzi is Dead is less than forty-eight hours away. Playwright Athol Fugard recounts a previous opening night of the play in a South African township:
The venue was St. Stephen's Hall in New Brighton, Port Elizabeth, and the occasion was our first public performance of Sizwe Banzi is Dead in a black township in South Africa. Date: September 1974. The play was already nearly two years old, but it was only after its West End run that we felt sufficiently protected by its overseas success to risk the hazards involved in a township performance. Up until then its life in South Africa had been restricted to private performances before invited audiences… circumstances which theoretically made us safe from censorship and police interference. I say theoretically because even under those circumstances there had been incidents. The last one had been just prior to our departure for London. Half an hour before a performance at The Space Theatre in Cape Town we found ourselves confronted by the Security Police and a warning that if we proceeded with the show we would be charged under the Group Areas Act. They claimed the performance would constitute '...occupation of a building in an area which had been zoned strictly for whites.'
As far as openings go, I would say that Court Theatre has it easy, except that most of us theater people actively dream of putting up work that invites censorship and police interference.

- When this episode was aired as an episode of The Fairly OddParents, some of Mary Kay Bergman's dialogue as the Timmy clones was left undubbed by Tara Strong, who dubbed over her lines when the Oh Yeah! Cartoons shorts aired as part of the show.
- When Timmy put a bunch of mirrors behind him, he was facing away from them. Therefore, his back should have been shown in the mirror, not his front.

You cannot even run these misnamed Atkinson cycles under many combinations of load and rpm.
They are in the main, completely incapable in terms of high load higher rpm operation.
- and for a different but partially similar load of fail down low - but with load.
They knock and detonate like no tomorrow - w/o assistance ala Mazda - yes it is true this thermodynamic abomination ( @ low rpm with load ) can be helped with the right kind of boost - and fuel trim etc.
Or a big enough battery or other member assist.
Then, you also have to subtract off where you 'could' run it, but other choices - not the least of which is a dreary and drab Otto cycle would 'out perform' it - including massively.
It does have a role to play but it is extremely limited - like a niche unless you combine it meaning utilize it as but one tool in the box ie with multi modes of operation.
Oh look, we're back to GM ......
Which truth be told, is the most likely case with what Honda is bringing ie part time 'atkinson'.
And within that, for certain specific cruise conditions and light acceleration - at best.

Giving gifts at the office on the cheap.... shhh.
You don't want to be cheap, but you are poor this year. How can you give but not so much that it hurts. Co-workers deserve acknowledgement but they don't deserve the shirt off your back!
Many of us struggle with the gifts for coworkers that we should buy for Christmas or the holidays. You wonder where you cut off the line and who you should and shouldn't buy for. And if you have close friends in work will others notice that you bought them something a lot nicer than your coffee cup?
The fact is that in today's economy it is more and more important to find those cheap and easy Christmas presents that will still be appreciated. It's a delicate balance but there are some gifts out there that will be appreciated by most.
Finding Cheap and Easy Holiday Gifts
If you have close friends in work, will others notice that you bought them something a lot nicer than your coffee cup? The fact is that in today's economy it is more and more important to find those cheap and easy Christmas presents that will still be appreciated. It's a delicate balance but there are some gifts out there that will be appreciated by most.
So how do you go about selecting holiday presents for coworkers? There are a couple schools of thought.
- The first is that you buy the same holiday presents for everyone.
- The second is that you buy the same thing for the men and the same thing for the women.
- The third thought is that you get unique holiday gifts for everyone. Buying unique presents for everyone might be a good thought, but it is difficult since you really don't know most of these people that well so you might want to go with one of the other two options.
There are some cute and quick Christmas gifts for women that they might appreciate. Some of the holiday gift giving ideas include:
- Gourmet coffees or gourmet teas depending on what they tend to drink
- Homemade breads, cookies or cakes but you might want to stay away from fruit cake- 90% hate them and use them as door stops.
- Christmas chocolates are always good and you can get a nice box for just a bit of money.
- Also women appreciate makeup totes, but some won't so make sure the person at least wears makeup before you give something like that.
- Coffee cups and souvenir cups of your local city's team
- Nice pens
- Nuts, such as pistachios, in a nice container
- If your place of work has a cafeteria, many of them will let you purchase holiday gift cards for food.
- Also, there are always the gift cards that everyone likes that are easy and appreciated. Think about the places that you all like to go to; even a $10 gift card is a start. Coffee shops, food establishments and movie theaters are all great gifts and relatively inexpensive.
Christmas gift-giving stress can be limited and this includes when you exchange holiday gifts with your peers at work. Set some guidelines about maximum dollar amounts so you all stay in the same ballpark and if you really want to limit your holiday spending and financial exposure do a holiday grab bag instead of exchanging with everyone. You could also do a white elephant which is like a grab bag but with gag gifts.
These are but a few idea of what you can get but you know your peers better than anyone so start early, look in discount stores and online and start pricing around now. The best way to get reasonably-priced holiday gifts is to start early and get the deals now.

I also want to take a moment to thank those of you who pledged our Relay for Life team this year. In total our two teams raised over $40,500.00!
A little update.
My my, the last few weeks have been a bit of a whirlwind around here. The birthday parties were so much fun, the weather has been perfect, our house has been painted, the yard is blooming and I'm back into making and selling pretty little bits and baubles as well! I've been meaning to blog about all of the exciting things happening around here, but I can never seem to find the time. Things are settling down a bit now, so I'm hoping to get around to doing that soon. For now, I'll leave this space with a few iPhone photos from our week of birthday celebrations. Oh, how time flies...

Centuries are for Sissies.
Well, not really. But on Saturday morning I wake up without a single butterfly in my stomach. And for a girl with an award-winning capacity to worry about big rides, that's saying something.
Breakfast is Sal's classic pre-ride masterpiece: buckwheat pancakes and eggs, black coffee. Bags and bikes in car: Project Portland Velo Century is all systems go!
The roll out: Perfect and fast.
The first climb: Early and painful. Popped off the back of the main group of the race team.
The chase: Not very impressive since I descend almost slower than I climb. Kristin comes back to me slowly. I think she waited.
The road to Hagg Lake: Lonely. Until I see Sally up on the right side of the road. Pulled over. Waiting for me. I'm half-mortified and half-relieved to have him back. I don't tell him that he didn't have to wait because I've told him this one-thousand times in my life and I'm tired of hearing myself say it. He knows. Sal rides a sweet 20mph tempo to Hagg Lake. Drops me on the climb.
Halfway through the Hagg Lake Loop: Entire race team on the side of the road. Man down. We pick up a few and form a nice grupetto. Sal is riding tempo again. His "shecko" nickname is catching on. Matt D is just behind me yelling, "Haw! Haw!" and making whip-cracking noises.
Rest Stop Number One: I am officially a rest stop pro. Devour one bag salty salty chips, refill water bottles, pee. Eat cookies and bananas. Steal one clif bar for the road. Grupetto sets out again. It's getting bigger.
Mile 50-ish: Half the ride has gone by. Sal looks over at me and says, "Jesus – I feel like I just started riding!" It's the brevets, I tell you. 100 miles is a lark. Our group is great – we're working together and chatting. This is how a century should be – a party on wheels – enough slipstream to go around.
Headed out on loop from Hell: Out on one of the worst roads I've ridden. Small shoulder and craploads of speeding rural traffic. I lose track of how many times we get buzzed, flipped off and generally maligned. We're all holding on for dear life, strung out and mashing pedals just to get off the thing. When we turn off, there is a collective sigh of relief and a long string of expletives from Kender.
Headed back on loop from Hell: We try to find a way around the Road from Hell, but we can't work it out, so we set off again with our resolve set and speed in our legs. Cars are passing for 5 minutes or so and by the time I'm able to see around the wheels that are in front of me, a huge gap has opened. Sal, Javad, and Kender are way off the front. Disaster! Those are the diesels! We've got to bring them back. I jump around the slower wheels and rock the drops until I pick up Matt D, who is already chasing. He hauls us back to Javad's rear wheel, which eventually leads to Sal's.
Final rest stop: Amazing pasta salad. More chips. Lube for Sal's chain (thanks Veloce!!!)
The Final Twenty-Five: Before we leave someone in the group laughs and says, "Just under 25 to go – we can do it in an hour!" That's a funny joke until I realize that we actually might make good on it. 22-23 miles per hour all the way home, swooping on quiet farm roads. Just enough rest after the slight rises to let you recover. I miss my first pull as the rider in front of me lifts the pace on a small climb just enough that I start to lose contact. I'm gritting my teeth trying to stay in touch when Matt D comes to my rescue and takes point as the lead rider pulls off.
My computer is on the fritz so I've got no idea how many miles are left – I just keep telling myself that I can hold this pace for another 10 miles. I sit in the top five and eventually my pull comes up again. It's short but sweet and I keep my eye on the speedometer, holding as steady as possible at 22mph. The final few miles at the back of the group is ridiculously sweet. Soft-pedaling at 20+? Brilliant.
The ride is over seemingly before it started. We roll into the post-ride party to applause and beer. Someone puts a cup in my hand.
Beer + endorphins = ecstasy so I begin the mandatory photographic torture of my compatriots.
I'm going to go ahead and take the liberty of calling this one a slam dunk. Booyah!
A few party snaps:
Lovin' this muppet dog.
Matt D looking like Gilligan.
Sweet, sweet nectar.
Sierra and Sherry toasting after completing their first century!
4 Responses to "Centuries are for Sissies."
Great write-up! You aren't kidding about those last 25 miles. I was thinking someone upfront was afraid all of the food was going to be gone. I heard the group covered that 25 miles in something like an hour and seven minutes. As for me, I had to pull to the side and watch the group disappear with about 8 miles to go so I could stretch out my screaming feet. After that, I rode in alone at a nice, leisurely pace. Great day!
hey now, Gilligan never looked that pimp.
That ride was seriously sweet, and it was the Grupetto that made it that way. Long live the Grupetto de Shecko!
Whoops, I must've been the lead rider who lifted the pace a bit much on that last drag into FG. Great ride! And a nice wrap up.
Next year, skip the green loop from hell and do the Bald Mtn climb through bango country. It was epic; a definite must for a future ride.

Sinkhole Forms on Brooklyn Street
Work crews are setting up cones and preparing to fix a huge sinkhole that gaped open in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, Wednesday night.
The 15-foot by 20-foot hole formed at about 5 p.m. Wednesday on 79th Street near Fifth avenue in Bay Ridge. No injuries were reported.
The Department of Environmental Protection say they will remain on the site through the weekend.
Parked cars near the sinkhole, some of which had started tipping into the crater, had to be moved.
Donald Huml, whose office is on the block, was surprised to see the hole in the middle of the street on Thursday morning. "My staff member took a picture of a car that was half leaning into the whole, which they managed to salvage," he said. "So it's really a miracle that no cars fell into the sinkhole."
City Department of Environmental Protection officials believe there's a defect in the sewer line underneath that may have caused the soil around and above it to shift.
The DEP says the roadway will remain closed at least through the weekend.
Annmarie Fertoli contributed reporting.

The King's Fund has called for significant changes to the government's health reforms to enable the NHS to provide a 'new model' of care that meets the challenges of the future.
In its response to the government's listening exercise on the Health and Social Care Bill, the King's Fund says the NHS needs to deliver a new model of 'integrated' care, based on stronger collaboration between health professionals and more effective co-ordination of services.
The response draws on evidence from the NHS and the United States to argue that integrated care offers the best prospect of improving services for patients and addressing the key challenge facing the NHS - demographic change and the increasing number of people with long term conditions such as diabetes, asthma and dementia.
Professor Chris Ham (pictured), chief executive of the King's Fund, says: "Integrated health care offers the best prospect of enabling the NHS to meet the challenges of the future. We welcome recent indications that this argument is being heard within government. But moving to an integrated health system requires more than a change in political rhetoric and a few tweaks to the Health Bill – it means making significant changes to health policy to ensure that integration is hard-wired throughout the NHS."
The King's Fund believes a number of significant changes to the Health and Social Care Bill and wider health policy are necessary to deliver integrated care:

Struggling Bend family finds help
One of many challenged by tight rental market
BEND, Ore. - Affordable housing on the High Desert is hard to come by. Recent statistics show there's less than 1 percent vacancies in Bend.
It's a situation that makes it especially hard for low-income families like the Anguianos in Bend.
"He was diagnosed with kidney failure when he was four months old," Yaneth Anguiano said Thursday of her now 2-year old son, Abraham. "He went into dialysis and he's been on dialysis ever since."
Although the family has insurance, the medical bills kept piling up.
"With every single paycheck I felt like we don't have enough money," said Jose Anguiano.
Travel costs going to Portland for Abraham's treatments only made matter worse. With $40,000 income a year for a family of four, the Anguianos barely made ends meet. Then, Jose lost his job.
"It was a really painful situation -- I mean, a really scary thought. How are we going to live from now on?" Jose said.
The options were limited, and a homeless shelter was not a possibility.
"Just the thought about it, with our son like this. We can't do that," Jose said.
The Anguianos aren't alone. More and more families in Central Oregon struggle to find affordable housing.
Luckily for the Anguianos, NeighborImpact found subsidized housing for the family.
"We are being deluged with people coming in from the Bend area, asking for help through our housing stabilization program," said Scott Cooper, executive director of NeighborImpact, a 21 Cares for Kids partner. "We have no more resources than we've ever had -- In fact, we have probably less."
The city of Bend is working on changing that and creating more affordable housing. One way is through a local affordable housing fee on building permits.
The fee is up for re-evaluation every two years, and the city now is looking at making it permanent. The first reading on the issue will be at next Wednesday night's city council meeting.
"Any time that we can help people with lower income get housing, that just frees up housing for everyone else," said city Affordable Housing Manager Jim Long.
While Jose Anguiano and his family are glad they found affordable housing through NeighborImpact, he says there are many others who aren't as lucky.
"I have heard about a lot of families who are struggling finding a job, finding a place to live," he said.

Stage I fire restrictions for Bitterroot National Forest
MISSOULA, Mont. - The following release was sent out by the Bitterroot National Forest.
Recent hot and dry weather along with afternoon thunderstorms and frequent lightning, prompted fire management officials this week to implement Stage 1 Fire Restrictions. The Bitterroot National Forest along with other land management agencies across the region is implementing the restrictions effective Thursday, August 7th at 12:01 a.m.
Stage 1 Fire Restrictions prohibit building, maintaining, attending or using a fire or campfire. Smoking is also prohibited unless within an enclosed vehicle or building, or in areas cleared of all flammable debris. Cigarette butts should never be thrown from vehicle windows.
Campfires will only be allowed within developed campgrounds or recreation sites which contain a Forest-provided metal or concrete fire ring. Campfires will not be permitted at sites on the Bitterroot National Forest that do not have a Forest-provided fire ring. See below for a list of designated sites. These restrictions do not apply to wilderness areas.
"The decision to go to Stage 1 restrictions was based on numerous factors including weather, declining fuel moistures, and the number of human-caused and natural fires," said Mark Wilson, Bitterroot National Forest Fire Management Officer. "Unfortunately we continue to find abandoned campfires on the forest including this past weekend, and there have been over 60 human-caused fires across the region. It's hotter and drier than you realize and we are asking the public to be extremely careful with any fire."
Anyone caught violating the restrictions could be fined up to $5,000 and face up to 6 months in jail. They may also be held liable for all suppression costs and damages if they start a fire.
Developed campgrounds or sites where campfires are permitted on the Bitterroot National Forest include:
- Stevensville Ranger District - Charles Waters Campground, Larry Creek Group Site, Blodgett Creek Campground, Gold Creek Campground.
- Darby Ranger District - Black Bear Campground, Schumaker Campground, Lake Como Recreation Area (Three Frogs Campground, Como picnic sites, Lower Campground, Rock Creek Campground, Three Sisters Group Site)
- Sula Ranger District - Martin Creek Campground, Jennings Camp Campground, Indian Trees Campground, Spring Gulch Campground, Crazy Creek Horse Camp, Crazy Creek Campground, East Fork Guard Station, McCart Lookout, and Two Good Cabin.
- West Fork Ranger District – Sam Billings Memorial Campground, Rombo Campground, Slate Creek Campground, Alta Campground.
So far this summer, Bitterroot National Forest fire crews have responded to and extinguished 41 wildfires. Due to the quick response of crews, most of the fires were kept under 1 acre in size.

WILDWOOD - A strong start Tuesday enabled the Wildwood High School girls basketball team to end a lengthy playoff drought.
The Warriors stormed to a 13-point lead in the first quarter, then held off a series of rallies from Riverside of Burlington County to net a 56-43 victory in the first round of the South Jersey Group I playoffs.
The win was Wildwood's first in the playoffs since 2008, when the Warriors earned their seventh South Jersey title.
None of the current players on Wildwood's team, including seniors Jess Freeman and Mackenzie Huber, had ever won a playoff game in any sport at Wildwood.
"This was a huge deal for me and the other players," said Freeman, who also played soccer for four years and softball as a freshman. "To finally win a playoff game and have the opportunity to advance even further means a lot. I didn't want to leave Wildwood without winning at least one."
The Warriors (18-5) don't have much time celebrate, however. Monday's snowstorm forced officials to move their playoff game to Tuesday. As a result, the fifth-seeded Warriors have to return to the court today, when they play at fourth-seeded Audubon in the quarterfinals.
Wildwood coach Dave Troiano gave his team some homework on Tuesday. When Freeman and the rest of the team left the locker room after the game, they were all clutching scouting reports on Audubon, which beat 13th-seeded Glassboro on Tuesday.
"It's tough having to play back-to-back games," Troiano said. "But the other teams are all in the same boat."
The Warriors may not have gotten the chance to extend their season if not for their impressive performance in the first quarter.
Freeman, who has scored more than 1,600 career points, nailed three 3-pointers in the first five minutes to help Wildwood grab a 17-4 lead. She scored 10 of her game-high 21 points in the first quarter, which ended with the Warriors ahead 20-10 and seemingly headed to an easy victory.
But their momentum disappeared. Damaje Anderson's spinning layup highlighted a second-quarter rally by Riverside (12-12) that cut the Warriors' lead to five points at 26-21. Wildwood led 28-21 at halftime and received a stern talking-to from Troiano.
"We jumped out on them and then we relaxed," Troiano said. "I told them I didn't care if (Riverside) was the 12th seed. This is the playoffs, and they were not going to go away. I also kept reminding them that they didn't want to go out without winning at least one playoff game."
The Rams closed the gap to three points at 28-25 with five minutes, 40 seconds left in the third quarter on Carly Newman's jumper. Freeman nailed another 3-pointer, freshman Mackenzie McCracken and junior Leishly Reyes converted offensive rebounds, and Huber hit a jumper during an 8-2 Wildwood run that built the lead to 37-27.
Riverside made one last comeback, closing to five points at 39-34 with six minutes left in regulation, but a 10-2 surge by the Warriors gave them some breathing room.
Freeman led the Warriors with 21 points and 12 rebounds. Reyes added 12 points and Jillian Freeman, Jess' sophomore sister, scored 10.
Newman topped Riverside with 14 points.
"We told the players on the bus ride here that if we stayed close in the first quarter that we would have a chance," Rams coach Scott Atkinson said. "But No. 21 (Jess Freeman) got going early and we couldn't get over the hump after that."
