The 202 is a versatile racing wheel that also happens to climb like a mountain goat. Look back through the crucial stages of recent Grand Tours and you'll find it winning stages, capturing leader's jerseys and floating up the world's toughest climbs.

At 650g the 202 was Alberto Contador's wheel of choice during nearly every stage on his way to victory at the 2011 Giro d'Italia, proving that it's a formidable weapon on any terrain. And Zipp® triathlete Jan Frodeno won an Olympic gold medal on the 202. Proving its durability, the 202 had even been ridden to a fourth place finish at Paris-Roubaix.
To get to the base of the climb, the 202's 32 mm toroidal profile was developed in the wind tunnel to roll on the flats as efficiently as many 45 to 50 mm rims. After the summit, the 202's high lateral stiffness delivers precise handling on tricky descents and crisp accelerations to finish off the competition.
New for 2014, the 202 Tubular is built with a the latest iteration of our 188 rear hub, the V9, along with new spoke-lacing pattern for the rear wheel. The refinements result in improved stiffness and durability. The new hub was developed in cooperation of superstar sprinter Mark Cavendish of the Omega Pharma – Quick-Step Cycling Team and already is in use by other top pro cyclists and triathletes including Pete Jacobs and Mirinda Carfrae. Cavendish received early hub prototypes in January 2013 and logged 13,000 kilometers (8,078 miles) on continually refined variants, including his stage victories at the Giro d'Italia and the 2013 Tour de France.
The new hub has larger precision Swiss steel bearings for increased durability. Our new "virtual 3 cross" lacing on both sides of rear wheel improves stiffness, achieving 3 cross stiffness in a 2 cross pattern with a new spoke geometry. The 188/V9 has 25 percent more torsional stiffness than a leading competitive hub. This measure of stiffness is crucial for the direct power transfer to the rear wheel for out-of-the saddle sprints and climbs. The new hub also is laterally (side-to-side) stiffer that its rival or predecessor
Carbon Bridge™
The 202 features Zipp's Carbon Bridge™ by adding Kevlar®, stitched into a 6 bundle co-axial thread and placing this at the rim edge, allows Zipp to 'capstone" the top of each outside diameter bridge, providing an improved way to distribute impact forces. This gives from 28 to as much as 50 % improvements in impact depending on the rim type and allows us to increases the lateral stiffness with minimal weight penalty.
Kevlar® with 1/3 the stiffness of carbon, 7 times as strong as steel by weight, but is 3 and a half times more resistant to impact shear forces (there is a reason Kevlar® is used for body armour), helps distribute the compaction forces generated during an impact further down the rim sidewalls. This novel lamination process, which more evenly distributes heavy point loads across the entire rim structure has been achieved with none to very minimal weight gain.
Just as the key-stone caps the long standing Roman arch, distributing loads and allowing taller structures, so our Carbon + Kevlar® bridge serves to protect and strengthen the structural carbon laminates that make up the Zipp rims. Placing the right materials in areas where they are most needed while selecting materials that are the very best fit for the function, places Zipp ahead of the pack in advanced rim design.

Getting ready for the rematch: Carlyle prepares Ducks for "a team that has only won one game in their building."
Saturday night, the Anaheim Ducks visit Bridgestone Arena to take on the Nashville Predators. It is the first meeting between the two clubs since Nashville won its first playoff series against Anaheim in April.
Corey Perry had 2 goals and 6 assists for 8 points in the Western Conference during the six-game quarter finals series last season. Perry says some players on the team have long memories.
"We know what is at stake. We know what they did to us last year," the Hart Trophy winner said, adding, "There are still a lot of guys who remember that on this team. It's one of those things that where we have to go out there and prove we are a different team. We have to push harder."
Head Coach Randy Carlyle agrees.
"You can't change what has happened in history. You can use it to stimulate and motivate," Carlyle said after morning skate on Saturday.
The former NHL defenseman assesses this year's Predators squad. "I don't know if they are that different. I think they feel comfortable with their group. I think they are a hockey club that can compete and take that next step," Carlyle said, noting that the addition of Fisher took a lot of pressure of David Legwand.
While Carlyle also sung the praises of Jerred Smithson as a checking center, at the end of the day, the Ducks coach had one message.
"In the end, you need to prepare your team to play a hockey club that has only won one game in their building. To me that is a statement. They are not exactly playing where they would like to be," he said.
Not everyone on the Ducks team is looking so closely at the matchup.
Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf sees Saturday night's game as just one out of a long 82-game season.
"Not really," Getzlaf laughed when asked about paying attention to tonight's opponent as the team that took the Ducks out of the post-season. "Playoff matches and stuff are exciting and it is exciting to get back in this building and have another shot at it but we don't put too much into it."
The puck drops shortly after 7 pm CT.

The Writing Process
Writing is not always easy.
The cursor blinked at me expectantly on the screen. Writers block settled in over me like a net. On my shoulder, my inner critic stood patiently. It seemed as though the second an idea made its way tentatively to the forefront of my brain, the voice came from my shoulder. "That's not good enough." "No one would ever want to read about that." "You aren't good enough to write that yet." "You were saving that idea for later.". Never ending.
The cursor blinked again. And again. flashing. Pushing me to put my fingers on the keys and come up with something creative, original, and perfect. The voice came from my shoulder again. Not shouting, just more disappointed. "Why haven't you written anything yet?" "This is why you can never be a writer. You never write." "You are not creative enough." "You have to be original. and funny. Things you are not."
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, slowly leaning back against my chair. As though this would make the persistent voice stop. As though this would cause a wonderful idea to come to mind. As though it would solve all my problems. Surprise, it didn't.
Slowly, I opened my eyes and leaned forward in my chair. Running my hand through my hair, I thought about things that made me happy. My family, my friends, my life. A smile spread across my face. I brought my fingers to rest on the keyboard and began typing. Slowly at first; my fingers slowly gaining speed as I listed everything that I liked about each and every person that made their way into my mind. The critic seated at my shoulder immediately began his rant. "What are you going to do with all this?" "This is nonsense." Somehow, now that I had begun to write things down, this insistent voice became easier to silence. His words no longer bothered me and eventually, the voice was silent. Peace.
I continued to write. Pages and pages of names and their wonderful attributes. When I ran out of people that I liked, I began to make up new characters and their personalities. What did I like about this person? Soon enough I had a page of new faces and individual personalities that would come in very useful in my future writings.
At one point, I wrote down another new name. Seth. A name I had never heard before, yet somehow, my brain could easily bring forth an image for this name. Unlike other names I had written, This one was different. I could easily picture a story for this name. So I began to write. I gave Seth a life. A story. A family. The words came alive on the screen. Much the same way as a painting becomes brighter and more meaningful with every new color added. Seth was young and relatable and deep and thoughtful. I could relate to Seth. Understand him. Before I knew it, I had written seven pages on this simple name. I could keep writing, so I did. Another three pages gave Seth a past and a dream. Each word added further depth. I wrote about his family, their lives, their experiences, their thoughts. By the time I had to stop writing (due to thirst, hunger, and sleep deprivation) I had written over fifteen pages and over 4 and a half hours had passed. I closed the laptop and stood from my chair, suddenly realizing the truth of how long I had been still. Stretching my back, I thought of more and more to write. Seth's story was far from over, and I had so many more ideas! Though my stomach growled and I knew I had to eat soon.
As I left the room, I realized the silence coming from my shoulder. Strange. A smile played across my lips as I pondered how long the silence would last. Not that it mattered. I could now silence that irritating voice by will. With a sense of accomplishment in my heart, I closed the door to the study.

Madrid, Jan 31 (AFP) Real Madrid''s title hopes were lefthanging by a thread after Jose Mourinho''s side suffered ashock 1-0 defeat at relegation-threatened Osasuna to fallseven points behind leaders Barcelona.
It was Mourinho''s second league defeat in charge asMadrid-born striker Javier Camunas scored the decisive goal on62 minutes to seal an historic win for Osasuna and deal Real''stitle aspirations a hammer blow yesterday.
Even Emmanuel Adebayor, on loan from Manchester City,could not inspire Real who have now dropped 12 points on theroad and have an uphill task if they are to dethrone doublechampions Barcelona.
"I can''t fault the players as they did their job," saidMourinho.
"We didn''t deserve to lose the three points but we lostagainst a team that gave everything and had the whole week toprepare for the match.
"It is always difficult in Pamplona and I don''t thinkmany teams win here. It is a match that you win by being soliddefensively and scoring.
"We had chances but didn''t take them and it is threepoints lost and our second league defeat of the season."
Barcelona made it a record-equalling 15th consecutiveleague win with a 3-0 victory at Hercules on Saturday to matchthe long-standing record of Alfredo di Stefano''s great1960-1961 Real Madrid side.
Real were under pressure to respond and had astar-studded substitutes'' bench with Xabi Alonso, Kaka and newsigning Adebayor ready to be called into action.
Adebayor had to wait for his debut with French forwardKarim Benzema retaining his place after scoring the winninggoal in his last two matches.
Osasuna drew 0-0 with Real in the corresponding fixturelast season and squandered the best chance of the first halfon 32 minutes.
A ball from the left picked out Walter Pandiani but theUruguayan glanced his header over.
Two minutes later Real had their first real sight on goalwith Benzema fizzing in a low shot that goalkeeper RicardoLopez did well to save at his near post.
Lopez then denied Cristiano Ronaldo with his legs in the43rd minute as the two sides went into the interval at 0-0.
Ronaldo was Madrid''s most dangerous player in the second half, firing one shot just wide and then seeing another driveblocked at the last minute.
However, Osasuna were ambitious going forward and tookthe lead on 62 minutes after a mix-up between Real defendersRaul Albiol and Ricardo Carvalho.
Camunas broke the offside trap and thumped his shot pastIker Casillas to delight the home fans.
Mourinho, who was quoted as saying that he wanted toreturn to manage in England on Sunday, responded with a triplesubstitution with Adebayor, Kaka and Alonso all coming on.
Adebayor had a half chance with a header, but it wasOsasuna who should have made it 2-0 with Alvaro Arbeloa savingthe visitors with an 84th minute block to prevent a certaingoal.
Madrid lacked the imagination to open up a well-organisedOsasuna side managed by former Real Madrid legend Jose AntonioCamacho.
In other matches, third-placed Villarreal closed towithin six points of Real with a 1-0 win at Espanyol.
Italian striker Giuseppe Rossi, who recently signed acontract extension until 2016, scored his 12th league goal ofthe season on 44 minutes to decide the match.
It was only Espanyol''s second league defeat at theirCornella-El Prat stadium and the Barcelona-based club staythree points behind fourth-placed Valencia, who have a game inhand against Racing Santander on Monday.
Under-fire Atletico Madrid coach Quique Sanchez Floresfelt the pressure intensify as his side lost 2-0 at home toAthletic Bilbao.
Gaizka Toquero scored in each half, on 45 and 64 minutes,to down 10-man Atletico, who had Colombian defender Luis Pereasent off on 38 minutes for conceding a penalty, andsixth-placed Bilbao move five points clear of Atletico in thetable.
Flores, who got the dreaded vote of confidence from theboard this week, is under extreme pressure with Atletico, whoare already out of the Europa League and Kings Cup, lying 10points off the top four. (AFP) PM

TOM BADDELEY: Political analyst Harry Phillips joined me earlier to discuss the issue.
TOM BADDELEY: Thanks for your time. It's the first bit of collateral damage to the State Government to come out of the royal commission. Was it legitimate or just plain politics?
DR HARRY PHILLIPS, POLITICAL ANALYST, EDITH COWAN UNIVERSITY: Well, you would expect, I think, the Leader of the Opposition to probe any aspect of royal commission deliberations that mentioned a Minister in the transcripts. Whether or not, of course, it's an abuse of parliamentary privilege is another thing. Parliamentary privilege is a fairly elastic concept, a very important concept for Parliament to check the executive. To what extent Parliament, through parliamentary privilege, can ask questions of a royal commission is perhaps a more technical question, but it's reasonable, I think, for Colin Barnett to ask the Premier whether or not a Minister has been named in the proceedings.
TOM BADDELEY: And the Government's reaction?
DR HARRY PHILLIPS: Well, the Government, I would have thought -- Premier Gallop reacted very strongly. Now, part of that may be part of being a Premier is to defend your ministers and to defend your team very stoutly in the public mind, in the Parliament as well, and that's almost part of the game. I think his reaction was so strong that one wondered whether there was something that Premier Gallop might have been concerned about.
TOM BADDELEY: Could this backfire for Colin Barnett?
DR HARRY PHILLIPS: Well, I really couldn't see it backfiring for the Leader of the Opposition, unless along the lines the royal commission reports adversely on Bob Kucera as a police officer. But I don't think anyone at this stage is assuming that that's going to be the case, and we've got to presume it's not going to be the case.
TOM BADDELEY: How do you see this playing out? Perhaps the Liberals might have some other ammunition up their sleeve?
DR HARRY PHILLIPS: Well, sometimes with these issues, both from a Government and Opposition point of view, it's very difficult to know, really, what is the kernel of truth. I would suspect that perhaps nothing really will come of this, except that the Opposition, at least in the short run, has sort of, I think, put the wind up the Government, perhaps unnecessarily, and the Government have reacted in the first week of Parliament when they knew that they were going to be attacked probably on other questions.
TOM BADDELEY: So a good week for the Opposition?
DR HARRY PHILLIPS: Well, I think, given the environmental portfolio, and Dr Judy Edwards was sort of a person of competence and she's had that questioned, they probably expected an attack there. This was probably unexpected, but the Opposition have had a very effective week in the Parliament and they would, I think, be surprised by it.
TOM BADDELEY: Dr Phillips, thanks for your time.
DR HARRY PHILLIPS: Thank you, Tom.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 220.127.116.11
The U.S. Commerce Department has ordered companies that administer internet addresses to stop allowing customers to register .us domain names anonymously using proxy services.
The NTIA [National Telecommunications and Information Administration] did not return a call for comment. But it told registrars it was not setting a new policy with the directive -- it was simply enforcing a provision in a pre-existing contract that the registrars had violated. But Christine Jones, general counsel for Go Daddy, the largest registrar of .us domains, disputed this.
"This has nothing to do with them clarifying an existing contract," Jones said. "We've been selling proxy registrations for three years; they knew it but never said anything against it. They established a new policy, and for them to say otherwise is pure crap."
National Telecommunications and Information Administration [NTIA], the agency that oversees the country's .us domain, responded to a story published Friday by stating that the department never agreed to the use of proxy registrations that allowed domain owners to shield their personal contact information from the prying eyes of the public, and therefore was not changing its policy by banning them now....
Go Daddy general counsel Christine Jones said the added paragraph constituted new policy, not clarification of an existing policy, and criticized the government for making the pronouncement three years too late, since Go Daddy has been selling proxy registrations for three years. She said NeuStar knew Go Daddy was selling proxy registrations during that period and that the Department of Commerce should have known about it as well.
NeuStar did not dispute that it knew the proxy registrations were occurring.
As soon as you get black hatted for one domain, then that whois registry becomes a flag for any other domain registered under the same whois entry.
The government is making it loud and clear that they have no respect for its citizens, except maybe as mindless drone employees to earn money only to give it away in the form of taxes. The NTIA has taken away the right for anyone to acquire .us extensions, and those who own them are being requested to give them up. If they can do this to .us extensions how long will it be until the rest of the �dots� are affected?
I would love to know the real reason behind this. My guess is some of these knucklehead politicians don't like people posting information on the net that mainstream media filters out, and currently .US is the only thing they can control.
[edited by: tedster at 9:08 am (utc) on Mar. 31, 2005]
I think that most of us have nothing to hide�most of us have pretty harmless or benign sites, and are law-abiding people. But it seems to be common sense to not want everyone to know your phone # and home address.

Justin Bieber fought Orlando Bloom over a Victoria's Secret model while the two were in Ibiza. VERDICT: Total celebrity. Ibiza—'nuff said.
Justin Bieber is feuding with Orlando Bloom, so he posted a pic of Orlando looking weepy. VERDICT: Typical teenager. Bullying people on Instagram? That is high-school behavior.
He was investigated after allegedly egging his neighbor's house. VERDICT: Typical teenager. Most teenagers could get away with this, but when you're the only teen in a neighborhood for bajillionaires…
Justin has scuffled with the paparazzi a few times. VERDICT: Total celebrity move, but we don't blame him or the rest of them. If people were screaming insults in our faces, we'd react, too!
Justin visited the Anne Frank house in Amsterdam and wrote in the guest book that he thinks Anne would have been a "Belieber." VERDICT: Typical teenager. In fact, I'm surprised a teenage girl hasn't already written "Amy loves Justin Bieber" somewhere around that house already.
He is shirtless 92% of the time. VERDICT: Typical teenager. Teen boys who are proud of their scrawny musculature are obsessed with showing off their torsos.
Justin keeps getting back together with his first love, Selena Gomez. VERDICT: Typical teenager. His first break-up totally destroyed him! It's the most relatable thing he's ever gone through.
Justin had his pet monkey confiscated at an airport in Germany. VERDICT: Total celebrity. Pet monkey.. confiscated.. German airport.
He grew a weird little mustache. VERDICT: Typical teenager. How else would they assert their adulthood?
Justin got a tattoo of his mother's eyeball as part of his sleeve of ink. VERDICT: Typical teenager. This is exactly the kind of misguided display of love a kid would give to his mother.
He randomly gifted his pet hamster to a screaming fan. A really nice gesture, even if people accused him of animal cruelty afterwards. VERDICT: Total celebrity. Regular people don't give away animals on a whim.
Justin has taken up graffiti as his favorite (illegal) hobby. VERDICT: Typical teenager. And a teenager would be dumb enough to post the results on social media, too.
Justin was filmed peeing in a restaurant's mop bucket while saying "F*ck Bill Clinton. VERDICT: Total teenager. Young people love drinking too much, and then getting naively political.
JB posted a pic of himself and his lady looking vaguely cuddly and post-coital. VERDICT: Total teenager. If you're a sexually active teenaged boy, you want everyone to know about it.
Justin was hospitalized in the summer of 2013 after a few exhausting concerts that left him short of breath. VERDICT: Total celebrity. Would you even know you could be hospitalized for being tired if it weren't for celebrities?

Cavaliers regrouping after opening loss to Warriors
(Reuters) - LeBron James kept rolling the numbers over in his mind, dumbfounded over how he and the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers squandered a shot at stealing Game One of the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors.
"When you get outscored 45-10 on the bench and give up 25 points off 17 turnovers, no matter what someone does or doesn't do, it's going to be hard to win, especially on the road," James said after Thursday's 104-89 loss.
Other numbers indicated Cleveland had a golden opportunity to seize a quick lead in the best-of-seven championship series.
Golden State's vaunted long-range sharpshooters Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson mostly misfired as Curry made 4-of-15 from the floor and Thompson shot 4-of-12 to combine for 20 points, 32 below their season's scoring average.
"Don't matter what you do with Steph and Klay, don't matter what you do with Draymond (Green)," said James, who scored 23 points. "Give up 45 points off the bench and 25 points off turnovers on the road, it's not a good ingredient to win."
James and Kevin Love were each charged with four turnovers and point guard Kyrie Irving committed three as the Warriors registered nine steals in the game.
"I feel like our backs are against the wall but we've thrive in situations like this all season long," Love told NBA TV on Friday.
"You have to have an us against the world mentality."
The free-flowing Warriors got a huge boost from their reserves and unselfish sharing of the ball as the team shot nearly 50 percent from the floor and logged assists on 29 of their 43 baskets. Continued...

Thanks to swapper Melissa Pocek, I had the good fortune to tag along on a tour of America's Test Kitchen in Brookline earlier this week. Assistant editor Jill Fisher took us behind the scenes to see how chefs at ATK perfect their recipes and even taste-teste a few treats!
Research starts in ATK's cookbook library, which contains over 4,000 cookbooks organized by region, diet, and style of cooking. Chefs apply the "5 recipe test" in which they find five recipes encompassing a broad range of flavors for a single dish and invite editors to try each sample and determine what works and what doesn't in each recipe. Then chefs tweak every variable possible (cooking time, resting time, type of leavening agent, etc) to find the most foolproof recipe.
Jill also told us that ATK chefs only use pots, pans, and other tools that would be available to home cooks, never industrial-sized kitchenware. They also taste test ingredients to determine which broths, milks, beans, and other items work best for cooking. (Interestingly, Charles Shaw is one of ATK's cooking wines of choice, even outperforming pricer bottles.)
Most magazine recipes are planned six months ahead of time, so that means that ATK chefs grill in the alley behind the office even during wintertime! On the day we visited, chefs were perfecting recipes for almond cake and gluten-free chocolate chip and sugar cookies. We tasted the cookies and four different variations on the almond cake (pictured above). Meanwhile, a group of chefs (pictured below) clustered around the counter discussing the cakes' density, stature, and the ratio of almond paste to sugar.
I get creative when making salads or granola, but I tend to closely follow recipes for baked goods, because messing with ratios can result in muffins or cookies that are too dry, too sweet, or too moist. Watching the ATK chefs in action gave me a deeper appreciation for the amount of time and research that goes into creating those recipes to begin with.
After the tour, we walked over to Cutty's, since Jill told us the sandwich shop is a favorite of the ATK staff. Cutty's has a giant chalkboard listing where all the ingredients come from (cheese from Cabot, flour from King Arthur, chocolate from Taza), so we could see why they love Cutty's. I also spotted this sign.
Even as a vegetarian, I was kind of intrigued. Can someone explain to me how pork fat is used in clubbing?

"I was really proud and really happy with the result, and I think our understanding of Dvořák really changed with this piece," said symphony Music Director Lang-Lessing. "We really learned about Dvořák." Headlining this weekend are Dvořák's Fifth and Ninth Symphonies, but as Lang-Lessing explained, before playing them the symphony tackles a contemporary piece by American Jennifer Higdon. San Antonio Symphony's Dvorak Festival Is Finally Here By Jack Morgan • Jan 3, 2014 San Antonio Symphony Next Friday the San Antonio Symphony's month-long Dvořák Festival begins. An enthusiastic Maestro Sebastian Lang-Lessing describes Dvořák's cello concerto as an outstanding one, and "probably also is the most popular cello concerto ever written." For the Dvořák debut, the symphony is bringing back Chinese cellist Jian Wang. "He's looking forward to coming back to San Antonio this season, and we are looking forward to kick off the festival with him," Lang Lessing said. It all starts with the spirited "Carnival Overture." San Antonio Symphony Presents Rach 2 At The Majestic By Jack Morgan • Nov 4, 2013 San Antonio Symphony This week's San Antonio Symphony performance at the Majestic Theater features the second Sergei Rachmaninoff piece of the new symphony season, Piano Concerto No. 2. "At least in the top five of the most famous of piano concertos, or the most popular ever written," Lang-Lessing said. The featured soloist is a highly regarded pianist originally from the Philippines. "We are very, very lucky to have the wonderful Cecile Licad playing with us this weekend, and she's really a wonderful artist," Lang-Lessing said. Lang-Lessing Orchestrates Grand Vision For San Antonio By Jack Morgan • Oct 29, 2013 Jack Morgan / TPR Arts The five-year contract extension signing by San Antonio Symphony Music Director Sebastian Lang-Lessing almost seemed like an athletic superstar event. Notables like the Tobin Center's Bruce Bugg and Judge Nelson Wolff offered their thanks to the conductor, but the new Symphony GM David Gross really set the tone. "I know how Coach Pop felt the day that Tim Duncan committed to the long term with the Spurs," Gross said. Maestro Lang-Lessing Extends Symphony Contract By Jack Morgan • Oct 28, 2013 San Antonio Symphony It's rare that there's breaking news in the classical music realm locally, but today's news that Sebastian Lang-Lessing will extend his contract with the San Antonio Symphony definitely qualifies. It's a new five-year extension brought on, in part, by an increased financial commitment on the part of major donors such as H-E-B and Valero. Lang-Lessing is originally from Germany, and is a very popular conductor there, in Europe and as far away as Tokyo and Tasmania, where he conducted concurrently with San Antonio until 2012.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2014
About the owner: We first visited Telluride in 1984 and moved to Colorado from Chicago with two sons in 1989. A great decision. We have had such a wonderful life in this magical valley. Our oldest son settled in Telluride with his family, his wife, also a 'local'- and two daughters. We on the hung up our skies. So we invite you to rent our condo when we are in other places.
Why the Owner Chose Telluride, CO, USA:
For a number of years were looking for a condo to downsize to, when our son, a Tellluride realtor, showed us this great condo.When I dragged my husband to view yet 'another great condo', this one hooked him...it was the unobstructed views that sold him. Plus we love the convenient location...park the car in the garage and walk to everything: the gondola is only 3 1/2 blocks, restaurants, shops and groceries, town park, all within walkable blocks.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
In looking to downsize to a new home, we had to be able to accommodate family, guests and renters- such as yourself. We feel that this condo meets our needs and hopefully yours. The main area is bright and open...wonderful area for friends and family to enjoy time together.The kitchen well appointed. The master suite is very large with its own TV so that you can retreat to a little peace and quiet after an active day in the mountains. In the first guest room we decided to put a queen bed and twin. This we felt would be most flexible. It has an en suite with bath/shower. The upper guest room we have made it a 'flex" room. I wanted to have a den/bedroom...but I was VERY concerned with having a pull-out bed. After much research, I settled on an American Leather sofa with a gel mattress. I hate pull-out mattresses and have spent many a night visiting friends cursing the pull-out BUT this one is wonderful. I held my breathe when out son from Denver visited with his family...he has back issues and I was more than a little concerned with his response to the bed."GREAT", he responded, after his first sleep, when I asked him how it was...I breathed a sigh of relief. So American Leather I will do a testimonial for you anytime! If you visit in the winter we have rented to ski lockers right across from the gondola. Each locker holds two pairs of skies and your boot dryer. There is another small locker in the garage. Where ever you choose to stay during your visit to Telluride I guarantee you will fall in love with this town and its community.

This woman grew a third breast, but was forced to remove it after it caused her too much pain and made her depressed.
The 41-year-old mother from India grew a 'large accessory breast' as a result of a rare condition called polymastia.
According to The Sun one of her breasts inflated three times bigger than the other one, causing her pain in both the shoulder and arm.
The British Medical Journal reported:
There was a successful removal of a large accessory breast, also known as polymastia, from a 41-year-old woman in India.
An accessory breast is an additional breast, and affects approximately two to six per cent of the female population.
These can range from small moles to fully functional breasts, and symptoms can include pain, restriction in movement, cosmetic impairment, negative body image, psychosexual dysfunction, and stigma.
According to the Journal treatment is necessary if any symptoms arise, or if the breast becomes cancerous.
They went on to describe this case in more detail:
The patient in this report had an accessory breast on her left hand side which increased in size over the course of ten years following her first pregnancy.
A mastectomy was performed to remove the accessory breast, and the patient was happy with cosmetic surgery.
She fully recovered from the surgery, and started going out and meeting other people again.

Is the following a linear function? h(x)= 1/2x^2 - 8xIf it is a linear function, please explain 'Why".
2 Answers | Add Yours
h(x) = (1/2)x^2 - 8x
The function h(x) is NOT a linear function.
h(x) is a function of the second degree because x has the power (2).
The linear function should be a function of the first degree such that the highest power of x is 1.
For example:
f(x) = 2x-3
g(x)= 5-5x
The standard form for the linear function is f(x)= ax+b.
Therefore, h(x) is NOT a linear function.
for a linear function the power of x is only 1. if it is more than 1, it is a nonlinear function

Patients with COPD generally have a poor peak aerobic capacity and, therefore, may experience more inconvenience during domestic activities of daily life (ADLs). Yet, task-related oxygen uptake and symptom perception during ADLs have been studied rarely in COPD. Therefore, it remains unknown whether and to what extent differences may exist in task-related oxygen uptake and symptom perception during ADLs in patients with COPD after stratification for sex; GOLD (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease) stage; Medical Research Council (MRC) dyspnea grade; or score on the BMI, obstruction, dyspnea, exercise capacity (BODE) index.
Ninety-seven patients with COPD and 20 healthy elderly subjects performed the following five self-paced domestic ADLs with 4-min rest intervals: putting on socks, shoes, and vest; folding eight towels; putting away groceries; washing four dishes, cups, and saucers; and sweeping the floor for 4 min. Task-related oxygen uptake was assessed using an Oxycon Mobile device, whereas Borg scores were used to assess task-related dyspnea and fatigue.
Patients with COPD used a significantly higher proportion of their peak aerobic capacity and ventilation to perform ADLs than did the healthy subjects, accompanied by higher task-related Borg dyspnea scores. Patients with GOLD stage IV, MRC dyspnea grade 5, or BODE score ≥ 6 points had the highest task-related oxygen uptake and dyspnea perception during the performance of domestic ADLs. Results showed no sex-related differences.
Patients with COPD experience a relatively high metabolic load and symptom perception during the performance of ADLs that is not the same as seen in their healthy peers, particularly in patients with GOLD stage IV, MRC dyspnea grade 5, or BODE score ≥ 6 points.

Market intelligence company IDC predicts that the worldwide tablet market will continue to decline, with the category as a whole falling 8.1% over the course of this year – and Android seeing the greatest drop in share over the next few years. Android will, however, remain the market leader through 2019.
The greatest growth, it suggests, will come in the so-called 'detachables' segment – tablets with detachable keyboards – where Windows is predicted to see substantial growth …

If you look at the rest of the Android space, admittedly even the stuff they announced last night, it kinda just blends in with the rest of the market. I don't know if there was that much that differentiated it from the rest of the pack aside from some minor features. And that's what's hitting other players like HTC… It's really just the case where a lot of these products are becoming a lot of the same thing.
I'm not trying to be a negative nancy here, but to prove Ma's statements here look no further than the "leak" of a purported new HTC phone that spread around the blogosphere this morning (mockup turned out to be one that popular leaker @evleaks created back in 2013). 6-inch display, 4GB RAM, 3,500mAh battery capacity, water-resistance, extremely thin bezel, similar rear design to every other flagship HTC smartphone from the past few years — nothing outlandish, nothing hard to believe.
And that's kind of the point. It's so easy to make up a spec sheet like this out of thin air, and there wouldn't be many around to doubt that HTC might make another phone with just marginal changes. I could have made up a spec sheet in real-time as I wrote the post about it and mine would've been similar to the one that spread around this morning.

While Apple's iPad continues to lead the tablet market, according to new data from IDC, its marketshare has dropped a few points year-over-year, and the overall market for tablets saw negative growth, based on units shipped globally. That's according to second quarter 2015 unit shipments and marketshare over the same quarter a year ago, as Apple shipped 10.9 million units versus 13.3 million units during the second quarter of 2014. While the iPad continues to lead in the tablet space, IDC's data shows Apple's market share dropping nearly 3 points from 27.7% to 24.5%.
Samsung, the number two player in the tablet space, similarly saw declines in both units shipped and market share from Q2 2014 to Q2 2015. The Korean company slipped by a million tablets during the quarter year-over-year, falling from 8.6 million units to 7.6 million units, while its market share dropped a point from 18% to 17% … expand full story

Supreme Court Rules: "Church Must Be Free To Choose Those Who Will Guide It On Its Way"
On January 11, 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a rare unanimous decision for religious employers. The decision both clarifies that the ministerial exception is an absolute bar to employment discrimination suits brought on behalf of a minister based on employment decisions made by the employer, and illustrates that the ministerial exception may apply to a range of employees of religious institutions.
The Court ducked the issue of whether the ministerial exception bars other types of suits, including actions by employees alleging breach of contract or tortious conduct by their religious employers, leaving that question open for another day. Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School v. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School is a Lutheran school in Redford, Michigan, that teaches kindergarten through eighth grade. The school employs two types of teachers: "called" and "lay." Called teachers are individuals who have completed academic colloquy classes focusing on the tenets of the Christian faith. After completing the colloquy classes, called teachers receive the title of "commissioned ministers" and their names are placed on the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod's list of called teachers (to be accessed by any of the Synod's schools).
Called teachers are recommended to the congregation by the School Board. If deemed acceptable, they are hired by the voting members of the congregation and may not be dismissed without cause, as determined by the congregation. Called teachers also may claim a housing allowance on their income taxes for conducting activities in the exercise of the ministry.
Lay teachers (also referred to as "contract" teachers), on the other hand, are hired by the school's Board of Education under a contract for a one-year term. They are often hired by the school when the school cannot locate a called teacher who has the experience or expertise in a particular subject matter for the school. They are not required to be Lutheran.
Cheryl Perich joined the Hosanna-Tabor staff in July 1999 as a lay kindergarten teacher. She taught a range of secular subjects, including math, language arts, and music. She completed the required colloquy classes at Concordia College in February 2000. Hosanna-Tabor then hired Perich as a called teacher on March 29, 2000. Perich continued teaching kindergarten through the end of the 2002-2003 school year following which she taught third and fourth grades.
Perich became ill in June 2004 and was placed on a disability leave at the beginning of the 2004-2005 school year. In December 2004, Perich notified the school that she had been diagnosed with narcolepsy and would be able to return to work in two or three months after being stabilized on medicine. Not surprisingly, the school was both concerned about classroom continuity and Perich's ability to teach and supervise after her return (and after a long absence from this class). These conflicting concerns led to a series of difficult communications between Perich and the school, resulting in the school asking Perich to resign her call and Perich threatening to sue for disability discrimination.
Ultimately, the school terminated Perich's employment. Perich went to the EEOC, which brought suit on her behalf, alleging that the school had retaliated against Perich for asserting her rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Raising what is known as the "ministerial exception," the school moved to dismiss Perich's claims on the basis that the First Amendment barred her claims because they concerned the employment relationship between a religious institution and one of its members, and precluded the court from having jurisdiction over Perich's claims.
The trial court agreed with the school, but on appeal the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit reversed after concluding that Perich did not qualify as a "minister" under the exception. The Supreme Court took the case because courts throughout the United States have rendered a series of confusing and conflicting opinions over the years on the scope of the ministerial exception.
The issue before the Supreme Court was whether the ministerial exception applies to bar a court from reviewing a retaliation claim asserted by an elementary teacher against her religious employer where the teacher is a commissioned minister who teaches both religious and secular classes and leads the students in prayer.
The Ruling Was Unanimous
The Court held that the Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses of the First Amendment bar suits brought on behalf of ministers against their religious employers, claiming termination in violation of employment discrimination laws. The Court upheld the principle that it is impermissible for the government to contradict a church's determination of who can act as its ministers.
It reasoned that requiring a church to accept or retain an unwanted minister, or punishing a church for failing to do so intrudes on the internal governance of the church, not just a mere employment decision. The Court articulated that the purpose of the ministerial exception is not to safeguard a church's decision to fire a minister only when it is made for a religious reason. Instead, the exception ensures the authority to select and control who will minister to the faithful is the church's alone.
The Court further held that Perich, though not a minister in the conventional sense of the word, was indeed a minister of the church and thus fell within the ministerial exception. The Court failed to articulate a rigid formula for deciding when an employee qualifies as a minister. Instead, the Court applied a case-by-case approach and looked at the totality of the circumstances surrounding Perich's employment.
In determining that Perich was a minister, the Court considered that the School held her out as a minister, with a role distinct from most of its members, that Perich's title represented a significant degree of religious training followed by a formal process of commissioning, that Perich held herself out as a minister, and that her job duties reflected a role in conveying the Church's message.
The Significance To Religious Employers
The Court's decision confirms that the ministerial exception bars ministers from bringing employment discrimination suits against their religious employers. However, it is important to note that the bar only applies to employment discrimination suits brought by ministers, not employment discrimination suits brought by other lay employees. Therefore, when taking into consideration whether the ministerial exception will apply to a given employment decision, religious employers must analyze whether the employee in question qualifies as a minister.
In addition, the bar may or may not apply to other types of suits brought by ministers against their religious employers. Thus, it remains important for religious employers to properly evaluate all employment decisions for potential legal exposure.

Celgene Taps AnaptysBio for Therapeutic Antibody Expertise
Celgene is tapping AnaptysBio for expertise in generating therapeutic antibodies to oncology and inflammation-related targets. In return for using its SHM-XEL™ platform to discover antibodies against Celgene targets, AnaptysBio will receive an up front fee, plus development milestones and future sales royalties. Celgene will retain worldwide rights to develop and commercialize antibodies.
AnaptysBio is combining its somatic hypermutation (SHM) platform with existing antibody technologies to discover and optimize therapeutic antibodies through a process that involves natural evolution and high-throughput selection. The firm says the technology can be applied both for the discovery of new antibodies and the optimization of existing antibodies to generate candidates with desired binding and specificity properties for therapeutic applications.
AnaptysBio is exploiting the SHM-XEL platform to develop an in house pipeline of therapeutic antibodies for autoimmune diseases, cancer and other disorders, and also through collaborations. Partnerships are ongoing with firms including Merck, Roche and Novartis and with DARPA (the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. The DARPA program is focused on the development of thermally stable antibodies for use in biosensor applications in the biodefense field.
In January AnaptysBio inked a second therapeutic antibody collaboration with Novartis, and separately signed a collaboration with an unnamed pharma firm. Both agreements are centered on the discovery and optimization of antibodies against multiple oncology targets.

Image B+ Sound B+ Extras C+
screenplay by Zachary Long & Roger Pullis, based on the book by Jim Schutze
directed by Larry Clark
by Bill Chambers An authority figure delivers the definitive line of dialogue of Bully, Larry Clark's quasi-sequel to his own hotly-contested Kids: "I don't know what you're up to. I don't think I want to know." Well, Clark insists on letting us know. Often accused, even with only three motion pictures under his belt, of over-sensationalizing already sensational material, he's hardly the next Oliver Stone. He may be something of an interfering observer, but he's not a conspiracy proselytizer running with scissors down the hallway. Where Stone drew slave parallels to football in Any Given Sunday by intercutting clips from Ben-Hur, Clark makes more organic shock statements. He can be tactless, sure. Can't we all?
