Call to save 240 jobs at Marshall
The Unite Union is calling for action to save 240 jobs at Marshall in Cambridge.
Unite are asking the city's MP Julian Huppert to put pressure on his Liberal Democrat colleague, the Business Secretary Vince Cable, to support Marshall.
Up to 240 jobs are under threat at the company's aerospace and defence divisions, and at the company's site in Mildenhall.
Marshall is Cambridge's biggest private employer, but has been hit by a decline in Ministry of Defence contracts.
Unite say the threat of job losses is particularly hard on workers in the run up to Christmas.
"Cambridge can't afford to lose these skilled engineering jobs – the city needs a balanced economy and can't rely on the two universities, Addenbrooke's hospital and the companies operating in Silicon Fen. It also needs a strong manufacturing and engineering base.
"Unite will be fighting very hard to retain as many jobs as possible at Marshall in the days and weeks ahead."
Warrior's skeleton to go on display
The skeleton of an Anglo-Saxon warrior and his horse will go on display at Mildenhall Museum in Suffolk. The remains were found at RAF Lakenheath in 1997.
The warrior is thought to have been thirty years old when he died.
US warplanes on the move
American warplanes based at Lakenheath in Suffolk are moving to the nearby base at Mildenhall today.
Twelve F-15 fighter aircraft will be re-locating while the runway at Lakenheath is repaired. It's due to re-open in October.

Western Reserve Care System/NEOUCOM, Youngstown, OH
INTRODUCTION:Primary cardiac tumors have an incidence of 0.02% to 0.33% (1). Papillary Fibroelastoma (PFE) is a benign cardiac tumor, comprises less than 10%, and the most common primary tumor of heart valves. They range from 2-70mm in size. The specific location from most to least common are: aortic valve, mitral valve, tricuspid valve, pulmonic valve, and cardiac chambers.Before echocardiogram, PFE was diagnosed by autopsy or incidentally at surgery. These lesions occur on the valves or endothelial surfaces of the heart and may be detected by echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, open-heart surgery or autopsy. Surgical excision of PFE is justified because of their high potential for embolization and propensity for life-threatening complications. In most cases, valve-sparing management is possible with no observed recurrence after complete excision.
CASE PRESENTATION:A 47-year-old woman was referred to a cardiologist after a diastolic murmur was heard at the left fourth intercostal space with complaints of occasional fatigue after a routine physical exam. A chest x-ray, electrocardiography, stress test, and cardiac catherization were normal. On echocardiogram, a mass with a peduncle was visualized on the atrial aspect of the tricuspid valve. A cardiac surgical consultation was obtained. Patient was admitted for elective open-heart surgery. A median sternotomy and bicaval cannulae was performed. The right atrium was opened and a polypoid gelatinous tumor, measuring 15mm, was visualized on the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve. After resecting the tumor with the attached piece of valve, the defect was oversewn followed by an annuloplasty. After separation from bypass, transesphogeal echocardiogram revealed a properly functioning tricuspid repair.The patient was discharged home on post-operative day 4 with an uneventful course. The final pathology reported Papillary Fibroelastoma. She was followed up in 6 months with a repeat echocardiogram. No residual or recurrence of disease was identified and her tricuspid valve continued to function normally.
DISCUSSIONS:PFE is usually diagnosed in patients over 40 years of age with no preference for gender. PFEs usually arise from the cardiac valves, although they may occur from the endocardial surface. Growda et al. indicated that 84% of 611 cases developed from the cardiac valves; 44% of the cases involved the aortic valve, the mitral valve in 35% of the cases, the tricuspid valve in 15 % of the cases, and the pulmonary valve in 8% of the cases respectively (2). Often patients with PFE are clinically asymptomatic but they can cause potential problems. PFE arising from the tricuspid valve may cause cardiac symptoms such as chest discomfort and exertional dyspnea possibly secondary to tricuspid incompetence, right ventricular inflow partial obstruction, arrhythmia, and pulmonary embolism. Echocardiography findings in PFE include a pedicel or stalk attachment to the endocardium with a highly mobile tumor measuring usually less than 15mm in size. Papillary fibroelastoma cannot be diagnosed on echocardiography as there are no features to distinguish it from other intracardiac tumors. The only way to definitively diagnosis PFE is through surgical excision and histological examination. Surgical excision of PFE is recommended which is curative and can be preformed with a valve sparing technique in a majority of cases. After surgical resection, no recurrence has been reported with an excellent long term postoperative prognosis (2).
CONCLUSION:Echocardiography cannot definitely distinguish PFE from other intracardiac tumors. With the risk of embolic complications and surgery being curative, surgical excision of PFE should be recommended in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.

A Letter of IntroductionMature
A community-wide open collaboration comprising of letters never sent. Funny letters, sad letters, rants, reflections, there is no limit on topic so long as it's handled seriously and appropriately. Feel free to add a chapter and pass this on to someone else.
The first letter in this series is to you, the reader and prospective writer.
To start, thank you for taking the time to stop by and at least read the first couple sentences. The idea behind this project is simple: we all have thoughts and feelings we'll never share. Maybe it's gratitude, the kind that you can never fully express. Maybe it's undying resentment at the guy who lives upstairs, you know, the one who can't do anything quieter than 90 decibels. Maybe it's a monologue that you'll never be able to share because the intended recipient is gone, or an animal, or an inanimate object. Or pizza.
Whatever the case may be, I wanted to try and solicit these thoughts, feelings, memories, and stories from you, the protagonize community. Maybe you can't share it with the intended recipient, so share it here instead. Writing is an cathartic agent after all.
The only thing I'd ask of you, writer, is that you take your submission seriously. This doesn't mean that silliness is outlawed, far from it, but keep things appropriate. You're a writer. You wield enormous power. Use it responsibly.
To the reader I ask that you treat these submissions with just as much respect. Comments are welcome, but again, be mindful of the power your words can have. The last thing I want is for a writer to never take another chance because of a comment someone left here.
Finally, the subjects contained within may be of a serious and mature nature. If you choose to venture inside you do so knowing the risks.
Thank you for your time dear reader/writer. I encourage you to leave a page, or at the very least a comment on someone's page. And I would appreciate it immensely if you'd pass this project around, and help me build it from the ground up.
Thank you again,

Excerpted from LSA Curriculum Committee Minutes 11/16/99
In response to feedback from the LSA Visiting Committee and the Advising Committee citing the value of these types of learning experiences outside of the classroom, the Curriculum Committee discussed appropriate guidelines for departments wanting to create internships or courses designated as "experiential." UROP, which provides one example of the value of experiential learning, plans to extend its efforts to juniors and seniors, at least in the sciences where more advanced research would be more useful. The Community Service Program also offers many opportunities for learning outside of the classroom. UM currently has no formal co-op programs that bring together work opportunities and interested students. Such programs are typically dependent on a large industrial or commercial base in close proximity.
LSA internship opportunities lag behind various professional schools, e.g., Engineering and Education. Far more internships existed ten years ago, but departments lacked the resources to administer them. In addition to the academic benefits to be gained from experiential courses, some practical reasons point to the need for more internships: 1) in order to participate in governmental internship programs, students must earn academic credit for those experiences; 2) internships provide on-the-job experience, a credential that can help students in the job market; and 3) students cannot be covered under their parent's insurance policy during internships unless they are earning academic credit.
Key elements of the discussion concerned grading practices, credit limits, and methods by which students report on these experiences to faculty advisors, and possible models of internships.
- The issue of grading practices has been addressed by the 1987-88 Curriculum Committee, which adopted the policy that all internships be mandatory Credit/No Credit. (It would be helpful to review existing experiential courses still listed as graded.)
- The current policy concerning credit limits is stated in the LSA Bulletin: a maximum of 15 credits of experiential courses may be counted toward a degree; a maximum of 8 credits may be earned from one project; and only one such experiential project may be elected each term. The committee considers these maximum numbers to be generous; it also recommends that a maximum of 4 credits count toward satisfying a concentration, a policy now used by Political Science.
- In order to assure adequate academic content, internships need a viable reporting structure linking faculty, students, and employers. For example, a faculty advisor could require a short report written by the student as well as the employer's written comments on that student's performance. Without this element of accountability, faculty would have little or no control over the content of specific internships. It would be helpful to have a prospective employer sign an internship proposal before it is submitted. Three hours per week per credit is the expected norm.
Possible Internship Models
The committee recommends that internships in each department be limited to concentrators, although LSA would have to find some avenue to administer opportunities or proposals that do not fall within departmental parameters. In spite of inadequate resources, Student Advising currently handles internships for students who are part of the extremely large ICP in Organizational Psychology. UC 300, College Practicum, may provide one avenue for a small number of non-departmental internships.
RC internships provide one possible model for internships. At the end of the internship, the student is required to submit an evaluative journal, write a paper if the experience yielded research data, and make a presentation to the college. The number of credits earned is dependent on the academic content of all of these. ECON 299 is another model.
LSA distinguishes between courses that earn regular academic credit and experiential courses that count as experiential credit. This involves academic work that may take place in a setting other than a university classroom with 3 hours per week of work per credit is the expected norm. Most experiential courses are offered through programs administered by departments and involve putting into practice educational concepts directly related to an academic discipline. For example, SOC 389, Practicum in Sociology, is an experiential course offered through Sociology.
Almost all experiential courses are offered mandatory credit/no credit, which means that they are not graded on the basis of A-E. In order to assure adequate academic content, experiential courses must have a viable reporting structure linking faculty and students. For example, a faculty advisor could require students to write a short report about what they learned through the experience and how it relates to their academic work.
College policies further stipulate the following: a maximum of 15 credits of experiential courses may be counted toward a degree; a maximum 8 credits may be earned from one project; and only one experiential project may be elected each term. In addition, a combined total 30 credits of experiential and independent study courses may be counted in the 120 credits required for a degree, and experiential and independent study courses are excluded from area distribution plans.

text: WASHINGTON, March 19, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Astronomers have found some of the youngest stars ever seen thanks to the Herschel space observatory, a European Space Agency mission with important NASA contributions. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20081007/38461LOGO) Observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope in Chile, a collaboration involving the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Germany, the Onsala Space Observatory in Sweden, and the European Southern Observatory in Germany, contributed to the findings. Dense envelopes of gas and dust surround the fledging stars known as protostars, making their detection difficult. The 15 newly observed protostars turned up by surprise in a survey of the biggest site of star formation near our solar system, located in the constellation Orion. The discovery gives scientists a peek into one of the earliest and least understood phases of star formation. "Herschel has revealed the largest ensemble of such young stars in a single star-forming region," said Amelia Stutz, lead author of a paper to be published in The Astrophysical Journal and a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, Germany. "With these results, we are getting closer to witnessing the moment when a star begins to form." Stars spring to life from the gravitational collapse of massive clouds of gas and dust. This changeover from stray, cool gas to the ball of super-hot plasma we call a star is relatively quick by cosmic standards, lasting only a few hundred thousand years. Finding protostars in their earliest, most short-lived and dimmest stages poses a challenge. Astronomers long had investigated the stellar nursery in the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex, a vast collection of star-forming clouds, but had not seen the newly identified protostars until Herschel observed the region.

Jan 18, 2013 at 5:17 am #1298167
Benjamin AuerMember
Has anyone used the notch with the large (78×25 inch) versions of the neoair xlite or xtherm that are tapered at the ends? I think I saw pictures once of the notch with the large version of the original neoairs that were rectangular. It looked rather tight at the ends. I'm wondering if the new tapered shape would fit better for us taller folks that need the longer/wider mat?Jan 18, 2013 at 9:16 am #1944981
Mark AndrewsMember
@buldoggeLocale: Midwest
I use a L All Season in my Notch and it is a tight fit. The pad corners push the inner's corners. I think an L X-Lite or X-Therm would be a much better fit.

I just received my Notch and was testing my pads in it this weekend and thought this might help.
This is an old style rectangular Large NeoAir (25X77) and it fits fine. The tapered pads would be an easy fit.
Foot end of Notch with Large NeoAir
Head end of Notch with Large NeoAir and Montbell Pillow (Note: the pillow would have to sit on top of the pad or be stuffed side-ways (on it's side) down the gap at the of top of the pad).
The Large (rectangular) NeoAir pushes very lightly on the corners of the bathtub floor but as you can see in this picture it is not causing any problem or deforming the bathtub floor. This would not happen with the tapered pad.Jan 21, 2013 at 3:07 am #1945711

>> Do you find the interior confining at all? <<
This is very much a personal thing… I don't mind small shelters. The Notch actually feels fairly roomy to me but somebody else might say it feels like a coffin. With two doors and two vestibules there is certainly an impression of space.
The fact that I can get my Large NeoAir inside this shelter says to me that it's not that small. I don't often use my large NeoAir but it's nice to have that option if I feel like taking a "luxury trip" :). With the 48" NeoAir that I usually use on my trips, the Notch feels quite roomy to me (See pic below).
>> Mike W…How do you like the "solid" interior??? <<
The semi-solid inner is definitely a bit more confining than an all mesh interior but I'm used to that as well. My Copper Spur and Fly Creek have partial solid sides and I really like them. That's why I went with the semi-solid inner with the Notch. I find that the higher sides on my other tents really helps keep me warm (less wind blowing over me).
I've only just received my Notch, so I can't say for sure how it will be but based on my personal needs and my experience with my other shelters, I'm pretty sure I'm going to really like having the solid inner. I may purchase the all mesh inner at a later date if I find the semi-solid inner is too hot in the warmer months.Jun 28, 2013 at 3:03 pm #2000599

It appears the floors of the Notch and Moment DW are virtually the same in dimensions.
I'm getting a Moment DW as soon as the semi-solid ineriors are available.
As a "CYA" move I'll try using my hiking poles with the Moment DW ala the Notch setup just to see if they might work in an emergency. If they do I'll probably sew in some kind of Velcro wrap to hold them in place.Jul 2, 2013 at 4:52 pm #2001830

Chris S,
In the TT Notch "slide show" (photos under the main one) there is a photo from Tristan Stewart of his Notch with a Nemo 25" pad inside.
(the other end will look the same)
That is another rectangular pad, like the one posted by Mike W and as Mike points out a tapered mat will fit easier still.Jul 2, 2013 at 4:58 pm #2001835

"It appears the floors of the Notch and Moment DW are virtually the same in dimensions."
That's not what I'd say at all. They do both measure 20" wide at the head and foot ends of the interior. But the Moment DW widens to 42" in the middle while the Notch widens to 32". That seems like a significant difference, at least to me. Total sq feet is 18.1 (Moment) to 15.1 (Notch).
Because the widths at head and foot are identical, however, I doubt whether the larger size of Moment interior provides much advantage over Notch with regard to use of wide sleeping pads.Jul 2, 2013 at 5:05 pm #2001839

When I was looking to purchase my Notch I kept comparing the sq footage of floor space to my Scarp I and figured I would be cramped in the notch. What I really figured out is that I use my Scarp I in the winter when I am carrying a lot of gear and like to have it ready in case I need it in the tent. With the Notch, I use it in warmer weather and don't have as much gear that I want in the tent. I have been pleased with the Notch. I can get my pad and the gear I want to have in the tent, in the tent and dont feel like I am lacking for room. Happy Notch Owner.Jul 2, 2013 at 5:43 pm #2001853

Same here, none of my comments were intended to disparage the Notch. I like to think of it as my Goldilocks tent: not too small, not too big, just right. I sometimes bring all my gear inside, pack and shoes fit below my feet or above my head.

text: Arthogen for Cats PRODUCT REVIEWS PAGE 1 OF 2 Options Available: Cats - 60 sprinkle capsules Shop Arthogen for Cats Rated 5 out of 5 by 13 reviewers. Rated 5 out of 5by poodle_runnerMoving BetterMy 15 year old cat Miss Sylvia was moving very slow and her legs were stiff. I was leary, but thought I would give this product a try based on reading the other reviews. I must say I was surprised to see that it seemed to help her. After about two and a half weeks, she wasn't as stiff and she actually has short bursts of running. Who would of thought. I highly recommend Arthogen. 01/08/2011Rated 5 out of 5by Mary_a_cat_lover_and_owner_of_two_catsI am amazedI have a 14 year old female cat, and she has been having a hard time getting up and down. Sometimes I could tell she was in pain, and that is what prompted me to try to help her. She has only been taking this supplement for about two weeks,and I can tell it is really helping her. She even galloped down the hall the other day! I was afraid if she would refuse to take it, but all I do is sprinkle it over some wet food and she gulps it all down. 08/16/2010Rated 5 out of 5by poodle_runnerGreat price on kitty arthritic pain prevention!My kitty was run over when he was 6 months old and sustained a pelvic and left knee fracture with internal brusing of his bladder. He's just a little black alley cat, but just had his 3-year B'day. Thanks to his arthogen, he runs around like a kitty whose never been injured and seemingly is pain free. My neighbor, whose kitty is several years older and has arthritis of the hip, used to buy this from her vet...........then we found PET CARE RX........will never shop anywhere else for our kitties! Carol & Martina in Ozark, AL 05/16/2010Rated 5 out of 5by poodle_runnerShe can jump now........My cat Sophie, had a hard time jumping up on the bed, couch, etc. Once we started her on the supplements, she jumped again onto the furniture. It has been a wonder drug for her. 05/15/2010Rated 5 out of 5by poodle_runnerAwesome ProductI have an older overweight cat that started to have trouble getting up and could not stand longer than a few minutes.Now with proper diet and Arthogen he is up and walking again.And since walking is less painful his weightloss is greatly accelerated.I recommend this product. 04/30/2010Rated 5 out of 5by Chrissy_Never_any_Corn_Wheat_or_Soy_in_your_petAmazing Product...I have a 12 year old male cat who has been severely overweight for at least 6 years and had severe problems just getting up and moving around as well as pain from all the weight that he put on his tiny stubby legs. I put him on a diet (tough love :) ) and ordered this product and it's simply amazing. He lost a lot of weight not only from me restricting his food intake but also from less pain hence running around like he has when he was a kitten, getting up without a problem, standing while eating and drinking instead of laying down, Climbing up the stairs to the bed without any signs of discomfort and even standing up to my other cat who has tried to keep him in check for many years. All in all it is a small miracle and I am sooo happy, I can not even explain it.I just reordered the product ( this time a 90 day supply) and I plan on keeping him on it till the day he will go to kitty heaven.I just wish I had done this a long time ago. Don't let your cats weight get out of control, I know how hard it is to say no to a cat who seem to love food more than anything else in the world but if you love your cats like I do mine put effort into not letting it get so far.Buy good food , grain-free is best , definitely no corn, wheat or soy and buy this Arthogen for cats. You will not regret it. 04/20/2010Rated 5 out of 5by D_mom_of_a_12_and_10_yr_old_indooroutdoor_catViagra for my catMy 12 yr old cat hurt his leg, we didn't know what to do to help him out. Finally after a few weeks I decided it could be arthritis. After reading reviews on here I bought a bottle of this, with in the first week we saw a difference! With in a month he was roaming the neighborhood again. He went from sitting in his chair on the porch watching the world pass him by, to acting like he was when he was a teen-age cat;)...so I call this the Viagra for cats. The wonders it has done for him is amazing. You would never have known this cat was over weight and didn't move to now he is non-stop, although he does like to play the poor me act every now and then so that I will pick him up. 09/05/2009Rated 5 out of 5by Anonymous Pet ParentPlaying againMy 10-yr old cat developed a limp in one leg and had stopped playing. After being on this medicine for several weeks, she regained much energy and started playing again. She still has a bit of a limp after 3 months of taking Arthogen, and I am not sure if it will completely go away. But she is definitely feeling better and I recommend this product. Also she is very picky about food taste, and she gobbles up her food when this is sprinkled and mixed into it, as if she loves it. So a big plus there! 02/20/2009 Page 1 of 2 1 2

Cameron Diaz is engaged to her boyfriend, Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden, multiple sources confirm to Us Weekly.
The Charlie's Angels actress, 42, who has previously dated Justin Timberlake and Alex Rodriguez, amongst others, first stepped out with Madden, 35, in May of this year. And after a whirlwind seven-month romance the happy couple are ready to make things official!
"Everyone thinks it's wild but are so happy for them," one source told Us. "Benji always tends to fall in love easily, but this time it's for real and he landed a great girl. They obviously both make each other incredibly happy and there's nothing better than that."
In September, a friend of the couple revealed to Us that Madden (whose twin brother and bandmate is Joel Madden, husband of Nicole Richie), was keen to do things right when it came to his relationship with Diaz.
"He is more traditional then her," the pal said. "She really doesn't care about getting married but wants babies. He wants to get engaged and married first."
In fact the couple have Diaz's pal (and soon-to-be sister-in-law) Richie to thank for their happiness.

Balisong - Me, Nightshade And The HouseMature
I smiled at my best friend, as we walked down the street together. She smiled back, giving a laugh. The two of us, We're sort of odd. I mean, it's not everyday you meet a couple of people called Balisong and Nightshade.
Well, actually, her name was Belladonna Nightshade, but she hates me calling her that. Nightshade kind of looks a little dead, but then again, so do I. she's really pretty though.
She's 16, a year older than me. She had white, literally white hair, which she always keeps up in two pigtails on the side of her head, usually held by two thin blue ribbons. She has big, red eyes, that I find amazing. Right now, she's wearing a darkish blue top, with puffy sleeves, and a sort of navy blue dress over it. She looks like a cosplayer wearing it, but it suits her. Despite her being quite short, she had superhuman speed and strength. Also, she had quite good illusion skills. She would have had to. Her true form is a Neko, and she had a white tail and cat ears. She uses illusion to make herself look human. She always carrys a small blade, coated with belladonna poison.
Me, on the other hand, my clothing doesn't suit me whatsoever. They were given to me by an old friend. I have long black hair, that I hate to wear tied up, and blue eyes. I'm only a little taller than Nightshade, but I like this. Currently, I'm wearing a long green dress, that reaches my ankles, some black highheels, and a small black bag. some little green studs sit in my ears, too. In my bag, I don't carry much. A purse, a phone, and two balisong knives. Like Nightshade, I have powers. I'm half pixie, so I have slightly pointed ears, and I can control dreams and nightmares, and when a person will sleep or awaken.
It was then we stopped. We looked at each other, a little confused. We had just...stopped, for no reason. I looked to my right. There was something about that house. I took Nightshade's arm, and pulled her gently over to it.
"Can you feel that?" I asked, witha slight shudder. I didn't know what I could feel, but it was something. Something big. Beside me, Nightshade nodded. She placed her hand lightly on the brass handle. Without pushing it down, she took it off again, and her mouth dropped open a little.
The door had opened. The lights were off. I grinned at Nightshade, before stepping in. She hesitated.
"You coming?" I asked her, offering out my hand.

'Big Brother' is set to return to TV screens later this year.
The reality TV show was axed by Channel 4 last summer after 10 years and 11 series but now Channel 5 bosses are set to finalise a deal with producers to bring it back.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Talks started last year. They didn't get anywhere initially, but both sides kept in touch and discussions are most definitely back on again.
"The deal hasn't been signed yet but top people are talking to each other. Watch this space."
A celebrity edition could be on air within months, while a series with everyday people is set to be broadcast on the summer of 2012.
Former host Davina McCall has backed the plans and tipped 'Big Brother's Little Brother' co-host Emma Willis to take over the presenting duties.
She said: "Emma loves the programme and is a great presenter. Any channel that picks up 'BB' would be a very lucky channel. But I think I've said goodbye."
A Channel 5 spokeswoman declined to comment on the reports.

Reflections of a dreary past.
The two jogger's shoes made a slapping sound upon the wet paved path, which echoed as they entered and departed the underpass. As the sun continued to embellish his surroundings, the man saw the words he had overheard perform an elaborate dance before him. It hadn't always been this way, if only someone would look at him as though he still retained a sliver of humanity, he would be satisfied. Perhaps the ties that bound him to the spot would relinquish. Perhaps the image of the child would no longer be branded behind his eyes. Perhaps he would die, and then he would be free.
As he adjusted his mound to reach for his bottle of greyish water, he caught a glimpse of a young boy stood quietly by the canal-side. He wiped the grime from his eyes and focussed completely upon the child, thrusting himself into the past.
He remembered. At the exact spot, a child of the same age stood, examining the ducks in the reeds of the green canal. He was only by the canal because the main road was being resurfaced – no entry. As he walked in his black suit he kept to the wall; his fear of water, of which his father called 'irrational', was still as present as ever, and he knew he would never go home, as he could never cross water again. His mind buzzed with the fragmented recollections of the water attempting to stifle his lungs, and extinguish his breath. He then took in a large gasp; as he reassured himself he was above water; and could still breathe. In, out, slow and steady, the voice of his counsellor rang judiciously in his ears. As his heart thumped in his mouth, and his eyes were cast upon his brown suede shoes, slowly lifting and pushing against thick air. Then a small shriek perforated the air, as a heavy splash echoed around the underpass. Immediately, the man looked up, and saw the small boy flailing in pure panic, causing the algae to form a circle around him; he clearly couldn't swim. Sweat began to peel profusely from the man's skin. Time seemed to slow, as if caught in a dreadful molasses dream. His mind screamed at him to move and to help, to do something.
Do anything.
But his body was completely debilitated. He felt as though it were his lungs filling up with the stale water, slowly turning his pulsing life to the edges of his body. He could feel the water streaming out of his eyes and into his mouth. The boy's small head was now completely submerged. His young screams reverberated through the air into the bystander's core.
"What the hell man! Do something! Are you f**king blind?"
What is this freak doing? Thought Jack as he swiftly kicked off his converse and dived fluidly into the water in a single movement. He reached out beneath the water and felt the saturated jumper of the child. He pulled him up to the surface, his body already swollen from gulping in the fetid canal. He kicked hard onto the bank, and pulled the small boy with him.
As soon as the blond young man hit the water, the older man seemed to thaw. His muscles loosened and his gripping fear abated. He pulled out his mobile telephone and called the emergency services.
"Hallo? Yes, I'm down by the canal next to Canary Flight, a small boy has fallen in the canal, and I don't think he's conscious. Yes, okay. No there's a young man who is pulling him out. He's grey."
He then dropped the phone and ran down to where the small boy lay, pallid and inert. Blood pulsated in his ears, and his skin prickled as the blonde youth with dirty feet pumped the boy's chest; over and over, then took in a large breath, attempting to transfer life back into the child. He lay still, his eyes closed, which were ringed with black, making him look disturbingly like a skeleton. The moments seemed to expand, and a lifetime seemed to pass before the paramedic arrived, and announced what the young man and the old man already knew.

Identify Your Life Mission (5 of 7) by Stan Coffey
This content is part of a series.Identify Your Life Mission (5 of 7)
Series: LIVING BY DIVINE DESIGN
Stan Coffey
John 17:4, Acts 20:24
Today we are continuing our series of messages on "Living by Divine Design". This is the fifth message and we have two more. And as we look at this message I want us to begin in John 17:4. We are talking today about identifying your mission in life. You know Jesus had a life mission. And in John 17 He is coming to the end of that mission, just before He would go to the cross.
Wouldn't you love to end your life and be able to say to God the Father when you stand before Him, I brought you glory on earth because I completed the work you gave me to do. You gave me a mission. When Jesus went back to heaven He went back to say, Father, mission accomplished. And I praise the Lord that it was. Paul is the same way. Look at Acts 20:24. Paul said I only want to complete my mission and finish the work that the Lord Jesus gave me to do.
Not only did Paul have a mission and not only did Jesus have a mission, but God has sent all of us in to the world with a life mission. And that is what we are going to talk about today as we talk about living by divine design. This is the letter "I" in the acrostic for design. We have talked about the letter "d" – determining what matters most to us, the values that matter most to us in life, and then adjusting our life to live our life according to those values. And then the letter "e" – evaluate how God has uniquely made us for a purpose. We talked about how before we were born, before we were even a twinkle in our father's eye, God knew us, God designed us. God knew every part of us and that there is no birth by accident. You are a planned child of God, no matter the circumstances of your birth. Then last week we talked about the letter "s" – surrender your life to God and to His purpose for your life. You cannot know your life mission until you surrender your life to God.
Some people say Lord let me ...

Starring: Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman, Brian Dennehy, Antonio Banderas, Freida Pinto, Wes Bentley, Isabel Lucas, Teresa Palmer, Imogen Poots, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Jason Clarke, Joe Manganiello, Joel Kinnaman, Nick Offerman, Ben Kingsley
Story: Romantic fantasy drama written and directed by Terrence Malick which follows Rick (Christian Bale) a screenwriter living in Los Angeles who's addicted to success but simultaneously despairs at the emptiness of his life. Haunted by the death of one brother and the dire circumstances of the other, he finds temporary solace in the Hollywood excess that defines his existence.
Like the tarot card of the title, Rick is easily bored and needs outside stimulation. But the Knight of Cups is also an artist, a romantic and an adventurer. Women provide a distraction to the daily pain he must endure. And every encounter that comes his way brings him closer to finding his place in the world.
Verdict: This is very much a Terrence Malick movie as in there's a collection of interesting images, it has a very dreamlike psychedelic quality with little dialogue. The story is about some rich guy having problems and that maybe difficult to relate to but I think the point Malick is trying to make is something we can all relate to which is, we all have to come to grips with our past, find a way to be happy and find some hope for the future.REVIEWS
Best Quotes (Total Quotes: 24)
Rick: [voice over] All those years living my life with someone I didn't even know.
Barry: [to Rick] Let me tell you about you. I want to make you rich.
Rick: [voice over] You see the palm trees? They tell you anything is possible.
Della: No one cares about reality anymore.
Rick: [voice over] I remember the man I wanted to be.
Nancy: [to Rick] Just don't threaten me with leaving, okay? Do what you want to do!
Nancy: [referring to Rick] You're still the love of my life. Should I tell you that?
Della: You don't want love, you want a love experience.
Tonio: [referring to women] They are like flavors. Sometimes you want raspberry then after a while you want some strawberry.
Barry: [to Rick] Don't know how many times I thought I was gonna die right here like on a street like this. I picked him up and I had him in my car, and a cop pulled us over. For me I came up with a story I'd tell him, "Okay, I'm a Methodist minister and I'm looking after you, alright?" And we did that, I got off.
[sitting playfuly on top of Rick]
Della: Am I bringing you back to life?
Della: [voice over] Love and do what you like. A saint said that.
Della: You have her in you, I know it.
Rick: [voice over] Blind. I supposed it isn't there for me.
Rick: [voice over] I was afraid when I was young, afraid of life. One pays for it.
Voice: Once the soul was perfect and had wings and could soar into heaven.
Rick: You gave me peace, joy, love.
Joseph: [to Rick] Find your way from darkness to light. Remember.
Joseph: You think when you reach a certain age things will start making sense, and you find out that you are just as lost as you were before. I suppose that's what damnation is. The pieces of your life never to come together, just splashed out there.
Helen: Dreams are nice, but you can't live in them.
Elizabeth: You're afraid you're making me break my vows. But the vows comes out of the love behind it. Love's so rare that when you find it you can't doubt it. Let it go.
[as she's spending time with Rick]
Elizabeth: [voice over] You're so quiet. You keep everything to yourself. You have love in you. I know it. When I'm with you, I forget everything else. My husband, my life as I knew it.
Tonio: Treat this world as it deserves, there are no principles, just circumstances. Nobody's home.
Jordan: Drinking is bad, but feelings are worse.

Rick: Begin.

Without innovation, it is a corpse." - Winston Churchill UPDATES: - (12/1/10) I've gotten my fiftieth rating, ranking me #4 in the Protagonize Top 50. I honestly still can't believe it, but I need to thank the people that have helped me along the way and kept me writing, as well as the people that have rated my stories. Thank you so much! :D - I've been featured on September 25, 2010. Thank you, community of Protagonize! I couldn't be happier, and I'm glad you're enjoying my work. :) Overview: Hey there! I'm just a partly-sane girl with a passion for all of the fine arts. I guess you could say I'm a budding writer/film-maker, as I generally write screenplays and plays. I started writing a few weeks before I joined Protagonize and now I'm hooked--can't say I wasn't warned, though. :) About Me: Who am I? A question that's definitely been unanswered for a couple years now. Shall I attempt to answer it? I absolutely love music and it's the number one thing that inspires me to write. Currently, I've gotta say that my favorite bands are Arcade Fire, Pavement, and The Cold War Kids. Because I'm so passionate about music, I used to play a lot of piano, taught myself to play guitar, and I'm currently teaching myself how to play ukulele (in a suburban band).Speaking of: I'm looking for songs to learn on uke. If you have any suggestions, don't be afraid to drop me a line. I'm an honest and kindhearted person (as far as I know), and I would rather heal someone than hurt them. I hate inflicting damage on anyone and I am generally the shoulder to cry on. But I'm also very sarcastic. In a GOOD WAY!(I've recently taken the Myers-Briggs personality test. I'm an INFJ.) I am also a bit of an insomniac (I'm writing this at midnight, and that's early for me). I fall asleep really late just because I have so much I want to do during the day. But I'm never tired, strangely, unless I get about two or three hours of sleep. Language and words interest me greatly. I find most languages very pretty and extremely interesting, including German (which is one of my favorites). I'm also attempting to teach myself Welsh. So far, I only know the letters and their pronunciations, but I'm getting there. Oh, by the way, if you just read over this whole thing, here's a cookie.

Exploring: Feelings
This chapter is probably fairly similar to the last. But here we go:
Does anyone else notice how the front of the car looks like a face? You know, with the headlights for the eyes and the bumper as the nose and mouth...?
I think humans like familiarity. I might have heard it or read it or seen it somewhere but I'm sure it's true myself too. I think we enjoy putting something of ourselves into what we do - though that could be a symbol of individuality rather than the proof of liking familiarity.
Perhaps that's a dimension of mourning. I mean, not seeing something usually related to the person or animal that has died brings back memories that hurt us but perhaps part of that discomfort is the fact that things have changed. And could it be that we don't like death because we're not used to it? Or is that maybe taking the theory a little too far? Saying that, the Victorians had a very different attitude to death from us - this in an age of high infant mortality rates and many fatal diseases.
Change... It can be horrific sometimes, can't it? The thought of life being different can terrify you, routines messed up can be disorientating and I feel we like to hold onto something: an anchor to ourselves, if you like. That's another reason death can be so painful. When your special anchor is gone, what do you hold onto?
If we lived in a world where everything changed daily, I'm quite sure we'd go insane. Familiarity is important.
At the same time, the same old routine every single day of our lives can be tedious so we only want familiarity to a certain extent.
(not sure if this is complete)

"The duet of Ernesto Rodrigues and Jorge Valente was once named Orquestra Vermelha (the Portuguese name for Red Orchestra). The reasons for this choice - let it be remembered that it was thus the espionage network set up by the Soviet secret services in the III Reich called itself - are understandable, as well as those making them change their minds. Clearly orchestral is the approach to electroacoustics made by these two improvisers who, faithful to the principle that any sound is apt to be put to use when craeting music, fall into the Cagean tradition. Thanks to the "extension" of the violin operated by electronics and to the polyphonies concocted by Quatour, an interactive program on a Max basis fed by a Yamaha DX7 II synthesizer, the sound planes are multiplied, gaining an ambience we might call symphonic. On the other hand, the symbolic and rather ironic allusion to the existence of communist "submarines" among the Nazis is enlightening with regard to the ways of both, sincethey infiltrate musical aesthetics and typologies which have little or nothing in common so as to obtain dividends alien to those areas. I'm speaking about post-serialism and free jazz of which they consider themselves to be followers by crosslinking elements with no apparent affinity. From this geometrical progression there are results what is normally called "stochastic music", a name which does define though it does not label, this being an impossibility (a desired one, on top of it) in so far as i tis a hybrid music. It happens that both violinist and key player don't think about music in terms of a finished product, be it a composition or a piece of work. For them, the musical activity is more important than what results therefrom. Blending the sounds each one of them creates into an indiscernible amalgam, the purpose of which would lie in itself, doesn't interest them. More attractive is to get hold of their respective personalities and seize the inner voice of both in order to try, based on the latter, a mutual stimulation, a dialogue or, better still, a "creative dialectical dynamics" to make use of their own words. Such being in fact the route to improvisation given the understanding it implies of "the other" (meaning either the public or the musician(s) with whom one plays). After all, before playing the improviser listens. Better still: he does it with the prioritary prospect of being listened to. Silences, challenges and not necessarily foreseeable (the less the better!) reactions, contrasts and complementarities, ostinatos, glissandos, embrionary structures, bits of phrases never taking form, "self-intonations", cascades of notes, "drones", only apparently non-musical noises (Cage, always Cage), microtonalities, audio landscapes, false solos, inflexions of discourse, breaking of linearity as soon as it becomes a menace, simple murmurs or convultions, all this together becomes the working material of a twosome music, freely shared and directed to the"systhematic exploitation of the moment", a music which elects real time both as substrate and cause. Let it not be believed, though, that by having chosen to individuate their names on this CD's cover Ernesto Rodrigues and Jorge Valente have solved their dilemma. The music they play between themselves is rather different from the one played by the former in contexts such as Lautari Consort or IK*Zs, and by the latter while member of the group Trioto Flêumico or Fromage Digital. There's something which finally prevails over their respective influences and wills, something of which the two of them together rather than separately are simultaneously subject and object - a "something" which belongs to the sphere of indetermination, of chance. Improvisation is a music of accidents, and these not only do give birth to events, they also change beings. What two (or three, or six, or twenty...) musicians result in while playing together depends on the circumstances and on the way they adapt toeach other, not only on what is most constant in them. Improvised music, an individualistic cry of freedom (let's face it: he who is partial to improvisation will always be regarded as, to say at least, bizarre...), is also - in a deliciously noteworthy paradox - the most gregarious of musics, one that longs for collectiveness. It is not surprising, in fact, that in the musical case histories of Ernesto Rodrigues and Jorge Valente one comes upon popular if not actually traditional music. Ernesto Rodrigues has played with Fausto and presently integrates Jorge Palma's band; Valente is an applied student of the music of African Portuguese speaking countries, which he even produced and edited. In spite of their devotion to a minority musical practice, they take an interest in Portugal's and Africa's common patrimony including it, though perhaps not consciously, in their improvisations. The way Ernesto Rodrigues plays the violin bears testimony to this with its "folk" dimension and crudeness which is the stamp of the popular violin anywhere in the world. As to Jorge Valente... Isn't it true that, nowadays, the computer is the popular instrument by excellence?"-Rui Eduardo Paes, Ernesto Rodrigues' Discography

Did I just witness...
Is it just me or did I witness Smackdown this week trying to build a feud (Primo, Epico, Khali, Hornswoggle, Rosa and Natalya) that doesn't involve either a title or the main event?
I swear it has been ages since I saw WWE devoting time to actually presenting a non-main event match on Smackdown or RAW that actually involved something other than 'Wrestler A vs Wreslter B for no other reason than just to kill time'. If only they would pay more attention to this sort of thing for every match Smackdown and especially those 3 hour long RAWs would be a much more rounded show. Good on them- I actually found that segment pretty entertaining.
Re: Did I just witness...
Yey a Khali feud, how exciting! Oh boyo!
Re: Did I just witness...
Let's hope not.
I don't want to see Khali or Hornswoggle in any feud.
Re: Did I just witness...
pretty sure they have been feuding for a month now. if not mistaken
Re: Did I just witness...
they need to put khali in some serious feuds like they did when he first arrived i feel like no one takes him seriously anymore sort of like a brodus clay image.
Re: Did I just witness...
Can I just ask, who's idea was it to put Khali, Hornswoggle and Natalya in a stable? Did they literally look at 3 superstars that weren't doing anything specific and throw them together?
Re: Did I just witness...
Re: Did I just witness...
What's more amazing is a 6 person feud where a diva is the one who is so obviously above it all.
Re: Did I just witness...
Got to have Khali and Hornswaggle at wrestlemania........
Re: Did I just witness...
Been feuding for a while. Though I would like to see WWE put some more focus in contender-ship feuds and non title feuds.

Collison, Aldrich Join Thunder Rally in Wichita
Sunday and waited as the opposition tried to execute a 2-on-1
fast break. Then one of his opponents stopped and laughed.
Aldrich, a first-round pick in June's draft, wasn't participating in a competitive scrimmage in anticipation of his first NBA season. The former Kansas Jayhawks star was back in the state he brought an NCAA national championship in 2008, this time as part of a Thunder Rally at the Lynette Woodard Center in Wichita on Sunday.
Another former KU star, Nick Collison, also participated in the
rally and free youth basketball clinic. The two players took questions from some of the approximately 200 kids in
attendance, then worked on drills with the kids.
The 6-foot-11 Aldrich didn't let his guard down when a girl participating in the clinic chuckled as Aldrich towered over her.
Aldrich blocked the shot anyway. The Thunder hopes he does the same to more evenly matched opponents this season.
"It's a blast coming to these," Aldrich said. "The kids are the foundation of the game of basketball for the next decade. These kids are the ones that look up to us and players like myself were the ones, 10 years ago, looking up to other players. To come back and give back to the community and to the game of basketball really means a lot to me."
The rally was to help the Thunder expand its fan base in its third season in Oklahoma City. The Thunder were among the NBA leaders in attendance last season, but in a region without many major professional sports franchises, the team can reach many untapped markets.
The team is already making progress in Wichita, where more than 1,500 people bought single- or multi-game ticket packages or season tickets. The Thunder's games are televised in Wichita on FOX Sports Kansas City.
"We're entering our third full season," Thunder Senior Vice President Brian Byrnes said. "We feel like for the first time we have our legs underneath us as a brand. We can start looking at ways to bring Thunder Basketball to communities outside of Oklahoma City and even outside our state."
The Thunder's brand-building has capitalized on multiple aspects that have created a successful formula. The team features players familiar to residents of the region in former Big 12 stars Aldrich, Collison and Kevin Durant, who played at Texas.
Core players such as Durant, Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook , and the team's budding success, are sure to bring new fans from across the midwest.
"I would think, as a fan, we'd be a team that's fun to watch," Collison said. "Kevin Durant is going to be maybe one of the best to ever play -- I don't want to put too much pressure on him. If you can get in now and get on board, I think it's going to be a fun ride. I think the organization is set up to be good for a long time."
Durant and Westbrook have been playing the last few weeks in the FIBA World Championships in Turkey. Durant and Westbrook helped lead the United States to an 81-64 win over the host country in Sunday's gold medal game. The win happened at the same time Collison and Aldrich were working with the kids in the Wichita gym.
"I've been catching (Team USA) games when I can," Collision said. "They've really been playing well. Kevin's continued to be a leader and be a go-to scorer and Russell's really given them a boost in a lot of games."
When similar boosts happen during the Thunder's season, which opens at home against Chicago on Oct. 27, the efforts of the team to grow figure to mean more fans from more places will be at the arena and watching on television.
"There's no question that long-term, that's a great opportunity for us, that's a regional opportunity for us," Byrnes said. "We have folks from around the state of Oklahoma and now into Wichita who define themselves as Thunder fans. If we can move that a little more north, a little more east, then we really have an opportunity to operate in the most dynamic manner that we can."

July and August 2011 Karachi targeted killings
|Jul & Aug 2011 Karachi target killings
|Karachi, Pakistan
|6 July 2011 to mid August 2011, violence subdued as of September 2011
|Various ethnic groups
Attack type
|Targeted killings
|Automatic weapons
Non-fatal injuries
Suspected perpetrators
During the months of July and August 2011, a number of targeted killings in Karachi, Pakistan left hundreds of people dead. The attacks are part of an ongoing terrorist campaign of political, ethnic and religious violence that has gripped the city in its worst form in the recent years. By late August and September 2011 the security situation in Karachi has stabilized and target killings have largely stopped, though isolated incidents still occur.[citation needed]
Continuous target killings in the month of July claimed the lives of over 300 people.[1] The high death toll in July made it one of the deadliest months in almost two decades in the history of Karachi - in fighting linked to ethnic and religious tensions that plague the city.[2]
The shooting incidents, starting from 6 July, were perpetrated by unknown gunmen and fired indiscriminately in various neighbourhoods throughout the city. In the third day alone, at least 27 people were shot dead, in what was described as one of the worst days the city was witness to since the PPP-led coalition government came into power.
During the course of the attacks, some three buses were fired upon; some shootings were conducted in Orangi Town, causing many suburban locals to vacate their homes and flee to safer areas. All of the attackers managed to escape immediately after the crime.
The President summoned a meeting of top officials to discuss the ongoing violence and find a solution. The attack was condemned by a number of people in the media. Meanwhile, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, one of the large mainstream political parties which dominate the politics of Karachi, threatened to call a strike if the government did not do enough to combat the incident.
Karachi has seen a number of target killings, most of which are allegedly politically motivated and usually carried out against political workers affiliated with political parties. Random shooting incidents however, like these attacks, are not as frequent and raise concerns over the deteriorated security situation of the city.[3]
In the month of August, 44 more people were killed in non-stop shootings. Most of the victims were members of the Muhajir community, the largest ethnic group in Karachi.[4]
