An integrated approach to the understanding and management of natural resources
|Program category: Ecology & Management
The science of ecology explores the interactions among organisms and their environment. The proper and sustainable management of natural resources requires the application of ecological principles. The suite of courses in this MNR program category will provide the foundational knowledge and understanding of ecology and its application to the management of natural resources. While this program category emphasizes ecological principles, you should strive to independently integrate these topics with those in the other three program categories throughout your graduate program.

Graduate seminar – live and on-demand viewing options: Current topics in climate change and the conservation and management of populations (FISH 504-1, 1 credits | 4:30 – 5:20 p.m. Pacific time).
Climate change is now recognized as a major force that will affect ecosystems and economies in coming decades. This graduate seminar will examine the current understanding of climate controls on ecosystems, likely scenarios for climate change in coming years, and expected effects to populations of economic and cultural importance. The emphasis will be on current understanding of climate effects on ecosystems and populations. Topics include: Major factors driving climate, spatial and temporal scale of climate effects, global, regional or local effects?, available climate models and predictions, how do the models make predictions and at what scale(s)?, major linkages between climate and populations (e.g., phenology, food webs, pathogens), biological responses to climate shifts: adapt or move (or be moved), indirect effects of greenhouse gases (e.g., acidification), and other emerging issues.

|Fire Ecology (FOR 526, 3 credits)
|This graduate course provides an overview of fire effects in multiple ecosystems, as well as key concepts, approaches to studying ecological effects of fires, and the science literature. Exams are take-home, requiring extensive reading in scientific journals available online through the University of Idaho library. Because you can choose which questions to address on the take-home exam, you can tailor this class to your interests in fire ecology. I have high expectations of my students for their ability to synthesize science information, and to write concisely in style of scientific journals. We cover restoration ecology, fire and climate change, and other ecological issues, but this is not a course on fire management.

|Rangeland Community Ecology (REM 459, 2 credits)
|A discussion on the major ecological principles and processes that influence the function of rangeland ecosystems. Ecological processes are similar across all types of ecosystems. However, some processes are more important determinants in some ecosystems than in others. We will focus on those processes that greatly influence the function of rangeland ecosystems such as succession, disturbance (e.g. herbivory, fire, and climatic variation), and nutrient cycling. Diversity and sustainability of ecosystems are ever- increasing important considerations. We will discuss these topics as they are currently applied to rangelands. I will often use examples from other types of ecosystems, such as wetlands, tide marshes, and temperate forests, to illustrate particular points.

|Wetland Restoration (FISH 540, 3 credits)
|This web-based course contains modules covering wetland science, restoration ecology, freshwater restoration, coastal restoration, and monitoring/maintenance. The emphasis is on the science of wetland ecosystems and the applied ecology/practice of restoration, with additional consideration of cultural and socio-political contexts. Extensive readings, an assignment, and a study guide are required for each module. Students apply their learning in and contribute relevant professional experience to weekly online discussions. Students are also responsible for obtaining documentation of at least one wetland restoration site in their region and conducting a site visit in order to evaluate the success of the restoration project. A final exam (re-design of a failed restoration project) is administered online, with partial credit earned through discussion with an interdisciplinary team of classmates and the remaining credit earned through individual analysis and synthesis.

Black Hills Area
The town of Spearfish is nestled into the northern tip of the scenic Black Hills and is the perfect place from which to explore this land of incredible beauty and breathtaking Spearfish attractions. Aside from the stunning Spearfish Canyon, visitors can access breathtaking views atop Crow Peak and Lookout Mountain or explore our nation's first designated national monument, Devils Tower.
Crow Peak
From Crow Peak, hikers are treated to views of the Black Hills, Wyoming's Bearlodge Mountains and Montana's southeastern plains. The summit is named for the Crow tribe, which lost a battle to the Sioux at this location. Hikers can enjoy Crow Peak Trail and the Beaver Ridge Spur Trail here with no required fees or permits.
Lookout Mountain
One of three mountain peaks that form the "crown" surrounding Spearfish, or the "Queen City," Lookout Mountain is a rock and pine-covered formation with numerous trails and vantage points for hikers.
Devils Tower
The once-hidden Devils Tower rises 1267 feet above the Belle Fourche River in Wyoming. About an hour from Spearfish, Devils Tower is a sacred site for many Native Americans and is our nation's first national monument. Visitors can marvel at this monolith and the wildlife that surrounds it or spend the day climbing it. However, all climbers are required to register with a park ranger before and after attempting a climb. Because the Tower is a sacred site, climbers are asked to stay off the monument in June when tribes are conducting ceremonies around it.
Iron Creek Lake
Spend a day on the water just 20 minutes south of Spearfish at Iron Creek Lake. This quiet lake is less populated with tourists and more family-oriented with a one-mile trail circulating the water. Because the lake is smaller in size, wakes and high-speed watercraft are prohibited, making it perfect for a relaxed day of swimming, sunning and picnicking.
Sand Creek
As plentiful as the trout around Spearfish are accessible locations to catch them. Sand Creek is located west of Spearfish on the South Dakota/Wyoming border and is known as one of the area's finest trout waters. The water is clear and the air is crisp with nearby campgrounds along the way.
Big Hill
The Big Hill trail system loops bikers from beginners to intermediates with several different trail options. With two easy "A" trails, three more difficult trails feature technical sections with loose rocks, roots, hill climbs and downhill rides. Trails range from a half-mile to five miles long, but since they all interconnect, riders can easily spend a half-day exploring.
Mount Rushmore
Almost three million people visit Mount Rushmore National Memorial each year. Depicting the presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt, this massive stone carving shines majestically over the Black Hills of South Dakota as a symbol of freedom and American hope.
Crazy Horse
Still under construction, the Crazy Horse Memorial will be the world's largest sculpture when complete at 641 feet wide by 563 feet high. The monument shows Native American warrior Crazy Horse riding horse while pointing into the distance and is carved into the side of Thunderhead Mountain, land considered sacred by many tribes.
Deadwood, South Dakota
Historic Deadwood, South Dakota is where the Wild West began. Known for being home to gun slingers like Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane, Deadwood is now home to gaming, restaurants, Wild West legends…and a heel-kicking good time.
Bear Butte
Bear Butte State Park is located six miles northeast of Sturgis and offers hiking, camping, fishing and education on the mountain's geology and Northern Plains Indian tradition. The butte is one of several igneous rock intrusions in the Black Hills and is sacred to many tribes in the region.
Vore Buffalo Jump
One mile west of the South Dakota/Wymoing border, the Vore Buffalo Jump is a natural sinkhole once used by Native Americans as a bison trap. Visitors can walk down into the sinkhole, of which only about 5% has been excavated.

Cork to Roslare
... but when you see the hours that go into each piece it makes you wonder. Anyway we ended up with a piece of crystal. From Waterford it was another drive over to the east coast port town of Roslare where the ferry leaves to go to Wales, England or France. We stayed stayed in a really nice B&B right on the cliff overlooking the sea and adjacent to the ferry terminal. We actually walked along a skinny path in the dark on the cliff face to a pub for dinner and back again. Nice ...
Day 11 - Fishguard to Rosslare (Wexford)
... to concern as I heard a sharp loud crack of wind being expelled from some other being. It was then I was able to just make out the white pale-skinned shape of an old man in blue trunks lying on his back on the tiled seat opposite me, slowly pulling his extended right leg aloft as if to stretch his hamstrings. The only thing he seemed to be achieving was squeezing air from himself like a bagpipe. Did he realise that there was someone else in the room or was it that he was beyond ...
The Adventures of the Ferry Crossing
... br> The ferry was massive and beautiful. It had 3 restaurants, a full pub, a shop and an arcade. It could carry up to 2200 cars in a crossing. It was fun to walk around, but to also sit, relax and enjoy a pint ... especially after the morning we had.

The magnificent ferry landed us in the cute little sleepy town of Rosslare. We strode down the steps where our bus waited to take us off ...

After a quick dinner back at Tracey's hotel (right on the river Suir) the concert band players rushed back up Mt. Sion to join the Barrack Street Concert Band for a joint workshop. This community band was formed in 1798 and has been playing continuosly since then. Their hospitality was exceptional as they brilliantly introduced the boys ...

The day had already begun with us watching the youngsters of Ennistymon making their way to school in their bright plaid uniforms, and the time sipping coffee and munching traditional Irish fare while engaging our host only completed the full Irish picture.

Marshall Electronics proudly presents the MD series of rack mount monitors that offer a flexible modular solution to system integration. These rack-mountable monitors can be configured with a variety of video inputs that can be "swapped" or interchanged in the field based on your evolving needs and requirements. This eliminates the need to upgrade or replace equipment when a different input or application is required. This "future proof" solution provides flexibility and reassurance when necessary, especially in multi-monitor rack mount units.
The V-MD185 includes Composite and Component loop-through, Status Display, False Color Filter, IMD (In-Monitor Display), Markers, Freeze Function, Color Temperature Presets, RGB Gain / Bias Adjust, Pixel-to-Pixel, Blue Gun, Hard Tally, user-definable function buttons, and more. A variety of modules will become available including the availability of 3G-SDI with loop-through, Fiber-Optic input/output modules, and more.
The V-MD185 can be used as a standalone monitor without the rack ears attached or mounted in any standard EIA 19" equipment rack. The attached rack ears can be angled to provide the user control over the viewing angle. A VESA standard 75mm hole pattern also allows custom mounting installations. Alternately, the V-MD185 can be used in a desktop configuration with optional stand (Marshall part number V-ST15).
The MD Series monitors are the WORLD'S FIRST HD MONITORS WITH DIRECT FIBER OPTIC VIDEO INPUTS. Marshall's MD monitors integrate Telecast Fiber System's TeleCubeTM Fiber-Optic HD-SDI transmission input/output modules. These fiber modules deliver the industry's broadest range of digital rates while maintaining pristine signal quality that broadcasters and integrators demand.
With broadcast production facilities looking to the future with 3Gb/s SDI integration, Marshall fills the void with fully-featured, high-end monitors with full 3G-SDI support. For distances beyond 150 meters, fiber-optic signaling may be required. To fulfil this need, Marshall looked to Telecast Fiber Systems, the company that developed fiber-optic video technology for television broadcast production. Telecast's comprehensive systems are used worldwide.
The MD Series monitors received TV Technology's STAR (Superior Technology Award Recipient) at IBC 2009 in Amsterdam. These awards are designed to celebrate and showcase the preeminent technological innovations available to the media industry. A panel of judges consisting of TV Technology editors and columnists reviewed a variety of products and services, examined the technical applications and their overall contribution to the industry, and then submitted their award nominees.
- 1366 x 768 LED-backlit panel with wide viewing angles
- Flexible "future proof" solution
- Swap and interchange modular inputs at any time
- Choose from a variety of inputs including 3G-SDI and Fiber
- Multi-format Compatibility
- False Color Filter
- Thin mechanical design
False Color Filter
The False Color filter is used to aid in the setting of camera exposure. As the camera Iris is adjusted, elements of the image will change color based on the luminance or brightness values. This enables proper exposure to be achieved without the use of costly, complicated external test equipment.
To best utilize this feature, you must understand the color chart and have a basic understanding of camera exposure. Normally, when shooting subjects like people, it is common practice to set exposure of faces to the equivalent of approximately 56 IRE. The False Color filter will show this area as the color PINK on the monitor. Therefore, as you increase exposure (open the IRIS), your subject will change color as indicated on the chart: PINK, then GREY, then a few shades of YELLOW. Overexposed subjects (above 101 IRE) on the monitor will be shown as RED. In addition, underexposed subjects will show as DEEP-BLUE to DARK-BLUE, with clipped-blacks indicated with a FUCHSIA-like color. Lastly, the color GREEN is used to indicate elements of the image that are approximately 45 IRE. This represents a "neutral" or "mid-level" exposure commonly used for objects (not people).
The user can then control multiple networked MD monitors at once using a single browser page. The user may select which monitor(s) they wish to control and send commands to those particular monitors. The browser provides real-time status of any connected monitor, ensuring consistent signals / feeds and so forth.

Devoted mother, beloved wife of the late drama critic Nathan Cohen. Born Sept. 2, 1922, in Toronto, died July 22, 2012, in Toronto of old age, at 89.
Gloria Brontman was the youngest of five children, the daughter of immigrant parents. She was well educated, well read and, above all, full of love.
Music was her great passion until Dad came along. She played double piano duets with one sister, and was only 20 when she completed her masters in musicology in Michigan. At university, she was a big-band singer.
She loved to dance. And Dad, who couldn't, would watch with admiration as she cut a rug with one of her brothers-in-law at family events.
She loved politics and debate – couldn't live without the news. Her seven-year-old granddaughter once scolded her, "Bubbie, you're a news chunkie!"
When mothers were making Icelandic sweaters, she sat down and knitted until her hands bled, making two sweaters in one week – then handed them to us saying, "I'm never doing that again!"
Although never formally trained, she became a teacher and counsellor to young people, and all of us learned from her about writing, preparing for exams, critical thinking and debate.
And she loved reading. Even as her strength faded, when she rarely talked, she still came alive at the nursing-home spelling bee.
Mom and Dad met in 1947, when he was working for a Yiddish weekly and she at a women's magazine. He said she was the only blonde he ever loved. He always said that she was the critic of the family. He wouldn't send in a column until she had given it the once-over.
Our best memory of her difficult last months was on Mother's Day. We took her up close to hear a concert by Daniel Domb, former principal cellist of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. She listened, and when he asked her how she had enjoyed it, she turned to us and approvingly whispered: "He plays well."
But most of all, the story of Gloria Brontman and Nathan Cohen is a great love story. Both were passionate, intellectual and shared a love for the arts and a powerful sense of the importance of family.
Gloria was the woman behind the man, the keeper of the family, a woman he cherished and admired. And he said so, again and again, in the many letters he wrote before and during their marriage.
When he died in 1971, Gloria never really recovered from his loss.
So his words, taken from letters sent while he was working overseas, feel especially poignant:
"Receive this letter which comes to you with bottomless and inexhaustible love. … I'll tell you a secret. My love, my own, I hope you miss me one fraction as much as I miss you. I hope you are well, and that you are thinking of me."
Gloria was thinking of him. To the very end, whenever we would ask, "Did you dream, Mum? What did you dream about?" her reply would never vary.
"About Daddy," she would answer.
Phyllis and Susan Cohen are Gloria's daughters.Report Typo/Error

Just connected my new devices, none of the codes on the Comcast remote provided work on Emerson model #s LC321EM9 e or Emerson LC320EMX the remote codes in the instructions don't make the remote work. Not real happy with the changes or having to install the converters.
Solved! Go to solution
The code I found that works for an Emerson tv on the Comcast remote is 11864
I found that 11864 works with my Emerson set. The problem is in the small fold out paper they give you with the hardware does not have 11864 listed. I lucked out and found the code online, Good luck!!!
11864 works for Emerson LCD TVs and the new Digital Transport Adapter remotes that are now required (as of August 2011). Thanks for the person below for suggesting that code -- I went through the code search and eventually stumbled across a code but could never retrieve it.
Thanks you your help as I was frustrated and threw my hands up and said a couple of bad words. But as soon as I checked things out comcast help you all helped me.

At Balingup Serenity Hut we have had hundreds of satisfied guests over the years. We ask all our guests to be honest with us as to the number of people staying in our accommodation. Unfortunately this guest was not honest with us by inviting additional people to stay along with four animals. She has then tried to discredit us on Take A Break, which was subsequently removed immeadiately.

This blend of 30% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 30% Carignan and 10% Mourvèdre is not showing its true age. Sure, it boasts some developed notes of charcuterie, balsamic herb and garrigue, but it's also still brimming with full, ripe black-fruit notes of plum and berry. With a crushed velvet texture, gripping tannins and a long, heady finish that's laced with hints of espresso and vanilla, this shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Enjoy now, or try after 2016.

We're just one day away from the hotly anticipated premiere of Star Trek Beyond (with the movie actually premiering tonight), but that isn't stopping Paramount Pictures from releasing a brand-new clip from director Justin Lin's movie.
The Enterprise's science officer has some logical thoughts on the issue.
Star Trek actor Zachary Quinto is returning to his sci-fi TV roots in a starring role.
The first clip for Star Trek Beyond has finally made its way online ahead of the movie's hotly anticipated premiere in three weeks.
Check out the first official trailer for Star Trek Beyond.
The Star Trek Beyond trailer is just around the corner, but in the meanwhile we have some images to whet your appetite.
Counting down the most memorable characters from FX's horror anthology.
The final entry in the Star Trek Beyond promo campaign for the Omaze charity project has arrived, and it's a fond farewell to a legend.
So how is it different?Justin Lin is more introverted than J.J. Abrams.
It seems that Leonard Nimoy's addiction--to chocolate--almost negatively impacted his career.
Looks like Star Trek will seek out new life and new civilizations beyond the upcoming third entry into the beloved sci-fi franchise.
Hear the emotional story of how learning how to be Spock from Leonard Nimoy turned into so much more for Zachary Quinto.

It's good to feel useful as a grandfather, to feel you serve some purpose in the lives of those you love. A fortnight ago in my garden at home it occurred to me that one day I will have an elemental role to play in the development of my grandchildren. I will, later rather than sooner I hope - but I won't have much choice about it - be helping them to come to terms with their own mortality.
The occasion was a poignant one. My father Tony van Bridge, who was an actor, died a year or so ago in Niagara-on-the-Lake in Canada. In his will he made it clear that he wished half of his ashes to be spread on a beach in Bermuda where he had once walked with his second wife. The other half was to be sent to me and laid in the ground in our garden in Devon, near the ashes of his first wife, my mother, who had left him some 60 years before.
So a fortnight ago, the family gathered in the garden. It was a cold morning, but bright. The hole was already dug, a sapling bramley apple tree was waiting. We mixed his ashes into a wheelbarrow full of earth and compost. And as we did so I invited my grand-daughter to help. So to the strains of Mozart's Exultate Jubilate, and my brother Pieter reading "Our revels now are ended" from The Tempest, my father was buried, three metres from my mother. Indeed, we'd taken some earth from my mother's tree, planted 10 years before in her ashes, and mixed that in too - a strange and fitting reunion. We planted bulbs around the tree. Then in a final gesture of salute we each poured a libation from our glasses into the earth. At which point my granddaughter said she thought it was unfair that my father should get all the attention, and wanted to pour the last of her glass (orange juice) around my mother's tree, her great-grandmother's tree.
I lay there that night wondering what my granddaughter had made of it all; why I'd made a point of inviting her to take part. The answer I think lay in my own history, the history of my first death and my second death, too.
There was nothing worse in my boarding school than to be summoned to the headmaster's study. So when one morning, in the middle of a French lesson, I was told the headmaster wanted to see me, I was terrified. All the way to his study I tried to work out what I'd done wrong. I knocked on the door. "Come!" In I went. His wife was there beside him (which was good news, because she was never around if you were going to get the cane). "Ah yes, Morpurgo. Well, you'd better sit down." So I sat down on the leather armchair you had to bend over when you got beaten. It was all very strange, and stranger still when I was offered milk and a biscuit. Things were looking up. Then he said it straight out as I chewed on my garibaldi biscuit. "Your grandfather's dead," he said. I didn't cry. I know that, because I remember feeling that I should. I probably just said, "Thank you, sir," out of habit. His wife said I should have the morning off lessons, which was great.
I went for a long walk in the park, tried to picture my grandfather, his Donegal tweed suit, his pipe, his voice. I still couldn't cry. I never went to see him. I never went to the funeral. I never said goodbye properly. His death remained and remains unreal to me. He just wasn't there afterwards whenever my grandmother came to stay. He was the oldest tree, the grandest tree, the wisest tree in my park and he was gone. He had been my first death. But death and dying continued to haunt me. And I'm sure now the fear was the fear of the unknown. Would it hurt? Would I go to hell? Or would I just drift off into the blackness of eternity or infinity?
Only when my grandmother died several years later, my second death, did I actually see a dead person for the first time. She lay in a room filled with silence, her face covered with a lace handkerchief. She was smaller than the last time I'd seen her, and she was so still. This time I did get to say goodbye. As I looked down on her I simply thought: this is all death is, the end of the story. Just The End. I can't say I have come to terms with my mortality as a result - that takes a lifetime. But it was a first step. It helped, just as I hope our little ceremony in our Devon garden helped my granddaughter.
We need intimations of mortality - for my grandchildren it may well be the last useful thing I can do for them.

EUR/CAD: buy targets - 1.4800 and 1.4900
By: Dmitriy Chernovolov
- EUR/CAD rises inside primary impulse wave ③
- Next buy targets - 1.4800 and 1.4900
EUR/CAD has been rising steadily in the last few trading sessions inside the active primary impulse wave ③, which recently broke the resistance level 1.4570 and the resistance trendline of the daily down channel from August (which has enclosed the previous primary ABC correction ②). The active impulse wave ③ started earlier this month – when the pair reversed up from the support level 1.4100 (previous sell target set for this currency pair).
EUR/CAD is likely to rise further toward the next buy targets at the resistance levels 1.4800 and 1.4900 (top of the previous minor correction 2 from October).

In the matchup of unbeatens, Karl Malone and his teammates couldn't win - mainly because they couldn't score.
Gary Payton had 17 points and 11 rebounds Tuesday night, leading the Seattle SuperSonics to a 71-56 victory over the visiting Utah Jazz.
It was the second-lowest point total in an NBA regular season game since the shot clock was instituted in 1954. The Pacers managed just 55 points against the Spurs last March 29. Utah scored 54 points last year in Game 3 of the NBA Finals against Chicago.
"We looked like we never played a game together," Utah coach Jerry Sloan said.
The Jazz were without starting guard Jeff Hornacek, who was attending the funeral of a friend. Utah shot just 21-for-68 (30.9 percent) from the field.
Elsewhere in the NBA, it was New York 95, Toronto 85; Milwaukee 93, Philadelphia 92; New Jersey 97, Detroit 82; Cleveland 90, Orlando 78; Miami 89, Indiana 78; Atlanta 83, Chicago 67; Houston 109, Phoenix 92; Los Angeles Lakers 116, Charlotte 88; Sacramento 101, Boston 98; and Vancouver 93, Los Angeles Clippers 89 in double overtime.
Utah's overtime win over Sacramento on Monday took its toll on the Jazz, especially on the 36-year-old Malone and 37-year-old John Stockton.
Malone led the Jazz with 15 points on 4-for-13 shooting and Stockton was 1-for-7 and scored three points.
"We saw a team playing back-to-back games and we wanted to take advantage of them," Sonics center Olden Polynice said.
Stockton didn't buy it.
"No one complained about fatigue," he said. "Minutes are shared pretty well so there was no reason to be exhausted."
Malone and Stockton were resting in the fourth quarter when the Jazz closed to 60-49 with 7:11 remaining.
Sloan put his veterans back in the game, but the Sonics responded by scoring seven of the next nine points, including a 10-footer by Payton with 2:49 left.
Seattle led by 20 twice in the third period - 51-31 and 55-35 - before the Jazz cut its deficit to 12 on two free throws by Bryon Russell with 39 seconds left in the quarter. The Sonics took a 58-43 lead into the final period.
A frustrated Malone was given a technical 4:01 into the second half.
"We didn't play smart," Malone said. "We had chances to exploit smaller players in post-up situations and didn't do it."
The Sonics led 39-25 at halftime in a first half that saw the Jazz shoot 9-for-33 and Malone and Stockton go a combined 1-for-9 from the floor.
Seattle coach Paul Westphal wasn't aware his team could have been responsible for a new NBA record. If he knew, the Sonics might have changed the pace.
"If I'd have been a defensive coach, I'd have known the record and we would have walked the ball up the floor more," Westphal said with a smile.
Knicks 95, Raptors 85
Marcus Camby, the player traded for Charles Oakley - helped spoil Oakley's return to Madison Square Garden with a season-high 11 points and 12 rebounds.
Allan Houston led New York with 20 points, while Patrick Ewing had 16.
Bucks 93, 76ers 92
Glenn Robinson sank an 18-footer with one-tenth of a second left to keep Milwaukee in first place in the Central Division with a victory at Philadelphia.
Robinson finished with 18 points, while Allan Iverson scored 23 for the 76ers.
Nets 97, Pistons 82
Keith Van Horn scored a career-high 35 points as New Jersey snapped a three-game losing streak.
Visiting Detroit was led by Grant Hill's 22 points.
Cavaliers 90, Magic 78
At Cleveland, Vitaly Potapenko, replacing injured center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, scored 16 points as the Cavs won their third straight game.
Shawn Kemp added 18 points for the Cavs. Derek Strong paced Orlando with 14 points and 10 rebounds.
Heat 89, Pacers 78
P.J. Brown broke out of a scoring slump with a season-high 22 points and Alonzo Mourning added 19 points to carry Miami to victory at Indiana.
The Pacers were led by Chris Mullin's 16 points. Reggie Miller was just 4-of-9 for 11 points.
Hawks 83, Bulls 67
At Chicago, Steve Smith led Atlanta with 17 points and Alan Henderson had 14 as the Hawks beat the Bulls for the second time in a week.
Toni Kukoc paced the Bulls with 27 points and 10 rebounds.
Rockets 109, Suns 92
At Houston, Othella Harrington had no problem filling in for Charles Barkley as he scored 17 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Rockets to their fifth straight victory.
Hakeem Olajuwon led Houston with 19 points and also grabbed 11 rebounds. Tom Gugliotta and Jason Kidd had 14 points for Phoenix.
Lakers 116, Hornets 88
Shaquille O'Neal and Rick Fox each scored 20 points in what might be the Lakers' final game without Dennis Rodman.
Bobby Phills scored 20 points and J.R. Reid had 13 points and eight rebounds for visiting Charlotte.
Kings 101, Celtics 98
At Sacramento, Corliss Williamson's short jumper with 7.5 seconds remaining and free throw to complete the three-point play gave the Kings the win.
Williamson had a season-high 22 points. Chris Webber also scored 22 and added 15 rebounds. Ron Mercer led the Celtics with 24.
Grizzlies 93, Clippers 89
At Los Angeles, Sam Mack stole a pass and scored a layup in the second overtime to help keep the Clippers winless.
Mack finished with 22 points, and Shareef Abdur-Rahim added 20 for Vancouver.
Maurice Taylor led the Clippers with 21 points and a career-high 20 rebounds.

Washington, Oct 21 (ANI): New research from the National Institute of Mental Health suggests that the brains of new mothers bulked up in areas linked to motivation and behaviour, and that mothers who gushed the most about their babies showed the greatest growth in key parts of the mid-brain.
Neuroscientist Pilyoung Kim and her team speculated that hormonal changes right after birth, including increases in estrogen, oxytocin and prolactin, may help make mothers' brains susceptible to reshaping in response to the baby.
The researchers performed baseline and follow-up high-resolution magnetic-resonance imaging on the brains of 19 women who gave birth at Yale-New Haven Hospital, 10 to boys and nine to girls.
A comparison of images taken two to four weeks and three to four months after the women gave birth showed that gray matter volume increased by a small but significant amount in various parts of the brain.
The areas affected support maternal motivation (hypothalamus), reward and emotion processing (substantia nigra and amygdala), sensory integration (parietal lobe), and reasoning and judgment (prefrontal cortex).
In particular, the mothers who most enthusiastically rated their babies as special, beautiful, ideal, perfect and so on were significantly more likely to develop bigger mid-brains than the less awestruck mothers in key areas linked to maternal motivation, rewards and the regulation of emotions.
Further study using adoptive mothers could help "tease out effects of postpartum hormones versus mother-infant interactions," said Kim, and help resolve the question of whether the brain changes behavior or behavior changes the brain - or both.
Their findings were published in the October issue of Behavioral Neuroscience. (ANI)

Mr Milosevic's decision to confront the Bosnian Serb leadership with an ultimatum, and then close the border along the River Drina through which the breakaway republic is supplied, is the most calculated gamble of his political career. The apparent risks of his strategy were underlined at his tense final meeting in Belgrade less than a fortnight ago with the Bosnian Serb leaders. According to diplomatic sources, when Mr Milosevic threatened to close the border, General Ratko Mladic, the officer commanding the Bosnian Serb army, retorted by saying he would lead his troops across the Drina to retake the border, thus raising the spectre of civil war in Serbia itself.
Mr Milosevic is said to have remained silent, apparently nonplussed. The Bosnian Serbs' decision on Friday to provoke air strikes by Nato forces has prompted speculation that they may be seeking to turn public opinion in Serbia itself against Mr Milosevic's tough stand.
Mr Milosevic was rebuffed last year by the Bosnian Serbs when he urged them to accept the Vance-Owen plan - and also then briefly closed the border, only to back down ignominiously. But this time he appears to have prepared the ground much more thoroughly.
Mr Milosevic clearly now believes he has the upper hand in his dealings with the Bosnian Serb leadership. Extreme nationalists in Serbia, such as the volatile self-proclaimed Chetnik leader Vojislav Seselj, immediately denounced Mr Milosevic's move. Mining the rich seam of Serbian political invective, Mr Seselj called on the Serbian President to resign and accused him of 'drinking three to four bottles of whisky a day' and talking to no one except his wife, Mira Markovic.
Mr Seselj's rage is understandable. It is scarcely more than two years ago that he was working hand in hand with Mr Milosevic to feed the nationalist flames that led to the war - during the election that conferred on the Serbian President what democratic legitimacy he has.
But diplomats who have met Mr Milosevic over the past fortnight have found him not only cold sober but confident and determined to face down the Bosnian Serb leadership. The Serbian police are widely believed to be compiling a dossier on claims of war profiteering and corruption against Radovan Karadzic and his colleagues which, significantly, have started to surface over the past few weeks in the pro- Milosevic press. The most spectacular allegation is that Mr Karadzic, a noted casino gambler, and Momcilo Krajisnik, the powerful speaker of the Bosnian Serb parliament, stashed away in private bank accounts up to pounds 6m from the sale of new cars requisitioned from the VW plant in Sarajevo.
There remains the question of why Mr Milosevic chose to act so decisively now. There was a steady build-up of diplomatic pressure on the Serbian President to persuade him first that the five-nation contact group - US, Russia, Germany, France and Britain - were serious about enforcing a virtual economic and political blockade of Serbia if he did nothing, and secondly that Washington saw itself under irresistible pressure to escalate miltary action against the Bosnian Serbs.
This took the form not only of a highly publicised visit to Belgrade by Andrei Kozyrev, the Russian Foreign Minister, and Vitaly Churkin, Moscow's roving envoy, but also a more discreet British government mission 10 days ago which included David Manning, the UK contact group representative.
Second, there have been real fears within the Serbian political leadership about the effect of existing economic sanctions. Dragoslav Abramovic, Belgrade's central bank chief, is reported to have warned a group of financiers privately that the Serbian economy could virtually collapse within three weeks unless sanctions were eased.
Finally, Mr Milosevic may simply have judged that this was the best opportunity to confront the constant threat to his own authority posed by the Bosnian Serb leadership.

My dyson dc animal's brush is not spinning. The machine smells like burning rubber. I believe the clutch has gone out but the machine also only sucks from the top of the hose in the handle. I am wondering if the machine is not locking properly which is causing the brush to not need to spin. If this is the problem how do i fix this problem.

Hello, I have a problem with my Eureka Powerline bagged upright vacuum. It has a 12 amp motor and is model #4352, Type D. It was probably bought new in 1998. My problem is, while vacuuming today the motor seemed to slow down all of the sudden and then began smelling like burning rubber. I shut the vacuum off to check for blockages but could not find anything blocked. When I then turned it on again it runs but seems to only be running at 1/2 the motor speed and still has the rubber buring smell.
It sounds like a rubber sealing in the motor has come loose and is being constantly rubbed against the walls of the motor with would cause the smell and loss of motor speed caused by the fricton of rubber against the rod so if you can get to the moto ... Vacuums
Hi The band snapped the other day on my Vax Swift Turbo upright hoover and i got a new band from a Hoover repair centre. (Im assuming the bloke sold me the correct band). Was tight to go on. And it seemed ok. However, after switching on the band snapped immediately. Kinda burnt as well (at the point it snapped). Any ideas as to what the problem is here? The hoover is roughly 2 years old and used around 3 times per week. thanks Mike

We own a dirt devil model 088600, and are experiencing a problem with the belt wearing away a section between where the belt connects to the brushes and the motor. There is a lot of plastic/rubber residue coming out from the vacuum. We have tried new belts only to find the same problem occurs. I noticed that the source of the dust is coming from the section between the brushes and motor, where there appears to be a section that is misshapen and melted. I looked up the schematic online and can't

I have a Euro Pro Compact Performer model # EP 171 which I love. It is the best iron I have found for my quilting class. When I went to use it, I found my cats had chewed the cord to the point that it is unsafe. I took it to a repair shop to have a new cord put on it and they told me it had to go back to the factory. I do not want to purchase another iron because it is my understanding this model is no longer made and because I love it. May I send this iron back to the factory to have a new

Dirt devil vacuum cleaner--trouble vacuuming dirt and pet hair on carpeting --is the problem with the spinning brush which contacts the floor, not contacting the carpeting??

I purchased a brand new P113 Ryobi charger about 2 years ago. It has never worked. If I put a P104 battery in for a charge, it looks like it works correctly. I push the battery tester on the battery itself, and it says full charge, but when I go to use the bateery, it dies right away. I have tried three new P104 batteries. The batteries charge on my charger at work with no problem. The funny thing is, I don't need a battery in the charger and the charger does the same thing, It runs the test
If you have your receipt, check with Ryobi to see if it is still under warranty. It comes with either a 2 or 3 year warranty, depending on when it was purchased. If it is still covered, get it replaced/repaired. If it is not, buy the P117 charger. $3 ... Ryobi P113 18 Volt One Charger 140501001

The man in black returns
Serthon also had an ability much like Al's. He switched his eyes to view text like Al did do see music. The world around him turned to black and white resembling the pages of a book. Wisps' of grey smoke seemed to roll gently off of every surface and float into the air where they formed letters, then words, and finally sentences. They were always short statements that told him what he should do or what he needed to hear. This time, the words formed faster than usual. The text didn't look thick and neat like it usually did, but more rush, almost like an unreadable scribble with a message that couldn't have been clearer, "Save your superior, or watch him die!"
Chills ran down the Level Four's spine as he switched his eyes back. Al was reaching towards the swirling mass and Serthon wasn't close enough to grab him. He had plenty of chances of stopping him with the number of books on the shelf, but Serthon had to make sure his point was clear this time. He sent the entire six foot tall bookshelf flying towards Al knocking him off his feet. Serthon flipped the shelf, dumping the various encyclopedias and fiction books on the floor along with the shelves. Using the wooden frame as a box he set it over Aldrenz, exerting every ounce of his power to hold it down. Turning his head he shouted to the rest, "Are you just going to stand there like scared children, or are you going to help me?"
Several of the Level four's shook themselves out their shock and surged forward to hold the box down on their superior. Serthon released the box from his power and suddenly fell on his hands and knees. His legs felt wobbly like jell-o. Sweat was pumping from his pores in small salty rivers, dripping into his eyes and mouth. Panic filled him, "Something's not right." he thought to himself, "I've never felt this tired after using my powers."
He tried to switch his eyes in hopes of finding an answer, but the words never formed. The tiny wisps' of smoke all seemed to be attracted to the mass, being absorbed before they could form the letters. He looked down at his hands. Black streaks leaked out from every finger and across the floor like ink running down a page. Serthon could sense the mass beginning to swirl faster and more violently. The leaks grew larger as it intensified until they were no longer streaks, but shiny black orbs floating with the smoke into the darkness of the mass. Serthon's elbows grew weak causing him to collapse face first in to the ground, "It's draining me!"he thought, horrified.Black spots swam through his vision. In his last seconds of consciousness he looked around the room.
Level Four's were struggling to hold the box down. Papers, book, chairs, and floor tiles flew in circles as the mass pulled them into its orbit. The mass was no longer black, but a sphere of thick smoke rotating like a small planet and in the center, where the recruit should have been, was the man in black. His ghostly hand was pointing at Serthon, his body gliding quietly towards the weak figure on the floor. An atomic heat coursed through Serthon's head that was cooled only by a cold evil voice that echoed from everywhere in the room, "You'll do for now."
A throat ripping scream escaped from Serthon's lungs as he watched the last drops of power leave his body. His eyes switched back to view the regular world, but the man in black remained, getting closer still, and then Serthon blacked out…
