Shukla vs. Chopra: The Great Yoga Debate
A fascinating debate unfolded recently at Washington Post's On Faith: The medical professor and blogger Aseem Shukla wrote an essay on yoga's American popularity and Hindu heritage. Decrying the "severance of yoga from Hinduism," Shukla asked: Why is yoga severed in America's collective consciousness from Hinduism? Yoga, meditation, ayurvedic natural healing, self-realization--they are today's syntax for New Age, Eastern, mystical, even Buddhist, but nary an appreciation of their Hindu origins. … [Read more...]

On a night in which they honored his memory, Iowa's spirited play continued making Wisconsin's recent series dominance a thing in the past.
Showing none of the intangibles that led them to a win over No.2 Indiana Tuesday in the first half, Wisconsin's late rally proved futile after an ugly first half, allowing Iowa to register a 70-66 victory at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
After winning 13 of 15 games in the series, Wisconsin (13-5, 4-1 Big Ten) has dropped three straight meetings to Iowa, the latest causing the Badgers to fall a half game behind Michigan State in the win column for first place in the Big Ten. The Badgers host the Spartans Tuesday and can ill afford to have the kind of start it did against the Hawkeyes.
Starting 1-for-12 from the field, including 0-for-5 from its three senior forwards, Wisconsin shot 6-for-26 (23.1 percent) from the field in the first half. Held to a season-low 18 points before intermission, Ben Brust and Sam Dekker were the only two players who made two buckets in the first half. It was so ugly that the Badgers had more turnovers (eight) than made field goals.
"We can't afford to dig ourselves into holes like that and get down by 20 points," said senior Jared Berggren. "You can't do that, especially on the road. You're putting yourself in a terrible position to try to win a game. We did pretty much everything wrong in the first half. It's just too much to overcome in the second."
Four days after its seniors carried the load in Bloomington, UW's three starting seniors went 8-of-21 from the floor, 21 points and 13 fouls. Ryan Evans finished with six points, ending his run of 16 straight conference games with 10 points or more.
"I definitely take that to heart," said Berggren, who led the seniors with just eight points. "(We) didn't do a good job tonight of contributing to my team. Especially on the road it's tough."
George Marshall scored all of his career-high 20 points in the second half, including 16 points in the final 4:33 and UW's final nine points in the last 30 seconds. Fellow freshman Dekker scored 13, but finished with five turnovers.
Wisconsin finished with zero blocks for the first time since December 2011 and no steals for the first time since before the 1998 season.
"(They) beat us to all the loose balls," said Marshall. "They played a lot tougher. It was just all the little things that they did and executed on offense and our defensive lapses that let them get that big lead in the first half."
Wisconsin made it interesting late in the second half, scoring on seven straight possessions to orchestra a 17-8 run and cut the lead to 60-53. Wisconsin had a chance to cut the lead further in the final 80 seconds, but a Traevon Jackson turnover kept the game at three possessions. Despite Marshall's best efforts, UW never got closer than three with Iowa making 10 of its final 12 free throws.
"You can always say if it would have been a 45 minute game," said UW coach Bo Ryan. "You can't make those up. A couple spurts early. We got in a hole. We're not exactly the kind of team that can really make those kind(s) of comebacks."
After back-to-back double digit outputs, Jackson finished 1-for-10 with only three points, and was one of the many victims that succumbed to the Hawkeyes' perimeter defense.
Leading the Big Ten in three-point field goal defense, holding opponents to under 29 percent a game, Iowa (13-5, 2-3 Big Ten) made Wisconsin takes rushed and challenged three-point shots, as the Badgers – who averaged eight made three-pointers per game - shot 1-for-11 (9.1 percent) in the first half.
Wisconsin rebounded to shoot 34.8 percent (8-for-23), but bad misses resulted in fast break and transition opportunities for Iowa.
"The stuff we did wrong on offense led to a lot of easy stuff for them," said Berggren. "That makes it pretty tough to play defense when we're turning the ball over and they're running out to get layups and dunks."
Iowa had no trouble finding the bottom of the net in the first half, starting 7-for-14, building a 20-6 lead 10 minutes into the game. The Hawkeyes shot 43.3 (13-for-3) in the first half and turned the ball over twice. Coming in averaging 13.3 turnovers per game, Iowa turned the ball over seven times and shot 43.1 percent.
"We gave them confidence," said Berggren. "And then they're coming off balls screens and things in the half court, they're feeling good about themselves. They're feeling like they can score. They have a lot of talented scorers. Once they get a couple to go down, they just get a taste for it, get their confidence going. They feel like they can do it again and again.
"Once they got going, they had the momentum. They fed off that. We kind of let things get out of hand."
The Hawkeyes got four starters in double figures led by sophomore Aaron White, who finished 17 points and went 13 of 15 from the free throw line.
"We needed to do a better job of containing him, taking his angles away," said Ryan. "Some nights you do, some nights you don't. We didn't do that tonight."

How about:
Apply[{#1, f[#2]}&, a, 1]

The same method works:
Apply[{#1, f[#2], #3}&, a, 1]
For instance:
In[1]:= a = { {x1, y1, z1}, {x2, y2, z2}, {x3, y3, z3}};
In[2]:= Apply[{#1, f[#2], #3}&, a, 1]
Out[2]= {{x1, f[y1], z1}, {x2, f[y2], z2}, {x3, f[y3], z3}}
Hope this helps

text: This is a quick and easy way to power your left gauntlet LED with the accurate slide switch. I suck at soldering and wiring. This is about as complicated as I can get, so if I can do it you can do it. The battery pack fits conveniently inside my flamethrower box. Certainly someone with more experience could figure out a more space saving method of powering the LED. But this is what I went with since it was cheap and easy and available at Radioshack.

The Christian Reformed Church in North America (CRCNA or CRC) is a Protestant Christian denomination which is traditionally Reformed in its theology.
The denomination has roots in the Dutch Reformed churches in the Netherlands, but find their true Reformed roots in John Calvin from the Reformation. Together with his wife, other family, and around 40 others, Albertus Van Raalte immigrated from the Netherlands and first settled in what is now Holland, Michigan in 1848.
Its churches are predominately in areas of heavy Dutch settlement, including western Michigan, Chicagoland, British Columbia, Ontario, Alberta and Iowa. The denomination has about 1,000 congregations located in the United States and Canada. Many churches, particularly in more urban areas, are becoming much more integrated. Emerging from its role as primarily an immigrant church, it has become more outward focused. They represent the United States and Canada in the Reformed Ecumenical Council.
The denomination's theology is founded in Calvinism and influenced by the other great reformers, such as Martin Luther. A more recent theologian of great influence on this church was Abraham Kuyper in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Kuyper promoted a belief of social responsibility for Christians to actively engage in improving all aspects of life and society.
Specifically, the theology of the CRC is traditionally defined by the so-called Three forms of Unity, consisting of:
- Heidelberg Catechism (1563)
- Belgic Confession (1566)
- Canons of Dort (1619)
After settling in Holland, MI in 1848, around 130 families broke off from the original union based on the perceived lack of the following factors: doctrine, piety, and sufficient distinction from American culture. Thus, in 1857 the CRC denomination was born.
Other churches later split from the CRC, including the Protestant Reformed Church in America (1924–26) due in part to Herman Hoeksema's rejection of common grace, and the United Reformed Churches in North America (1990s). [1]
In 1975 the CRC joined a number of other Presbyterian denominations and formed the North American Presbyterian and Reformed Council (NAPARC).
In the closing decades of the twentieth century, the CRC exhibited growing numbers of characteristics that were troubling to the more conservative members of its constituency, especially its 1995 decision to allow individual churches to ordain women to ministerial positions. As a result of this decision, the Presbyterian Church in America and the Orthodox Presbyterian Church broke fraternal relations with the CRC in 1997. The membership of the CRC in the NAPARC, the single largest gathering of conservative Reformed denominations in the United States, was suspended in 1999 and terminated in 2001. This gradual doctrinal shift has spurred more conservative congregations to leave, and a significant number of these have ended up in either the PCA, OPC, or the United Reformed Church mentioned above. [2]
The Christian Reformed Church belongs to the Reformed Ecumenical Council and the National Association of Evangelicals.
Calvin College and Seminary
The denomination runs Calvin College as well as Calvin Theological Seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where the denomination's North American headquarters are located. Other colleges associated with the denomination are Trinity Christian College, Dordt College, Reformed Bible College, Redeemer University College, The King's University College, and the post-graduate Institute for Christian Studies.

|School Timing
Hi Parents,
Can someone provide more info on the admission process in Headstart? Which class do you seek adm for? I had called them when I started looking out for schools in Sept end (for acad yr jun2011) and they said parents should contact the school when their kid turns 2 years (mine was 2y3mo being July born) - and I was too late!
They have batches of kids starting as and when they reach/cross 2 years - so I should have applied before my kid turned 2 (at 1.5) to make sure of vacancies! When I told them I couldnt find this info anywhere (website/forums) - the lady said it was well-known and I should have planned earlier. She wasn't rude - but the attitude of schools these days is amazing - they would suggest parents start planning for schools the day the baby is born!
Just wanted to check what really the process is, in Headstart - do they have admissions only in M0 or for later classes too (maybe I can be on-time for next yr!).
I collected a pre-primary application form for my son from HeadStart on 27-11-2010 as a backup for another school that I had already applied for. Now, my son's admission is more or less confirmed in the first school that I applied for, and the HeadStart application is not of much use to me. I understand that it is really tough to get an application form from this school, leave alone the admission, and i'm willing to give away this application form from HeadStart to any parent who is interested in it. Please contact me on my email address if you are interested.

Stainless VS Aluminum side steps
http://chrome ss Anybody have these on their WK2? I like the look of these and the Mopar chrome side steps. I'm concerned that the Mopar aluminum side steps will rust. Anyone had that problem? I live in the north east and my Jeep will see lots of road salt. These are Westin 4" oval polished stainless steel side steps.
Re: Stainless VS Aluminum side steps
The aluminum could see some pitting from the salt, but not rust. But a good wheel wax treatment every so often should prevent most of the pitting. Chrome can also be problematic in a salty environment. Stainless is probably the best way to go, although I would also wax it regularly to protect the finish.
Re: Stainless VS Aluminum side steps
Thanks for the input. I keep changing my mind about getting the Mopar side steps or aftermarket similar looking versions like the Westin side steps. I guess it doesn't matter as long as I take precautions to prolong the life of the product.
Re: Stainless VS Aluminum side steps
I just put them on my 2011 and I love the looks. I just put a coat of wax on them, and if you keep up with them you should have no problems. But I do love the looks of them on the jeep they set you apart from the rest.

I finally bought the Mopar chrome side steps. Thought about less expensive alternatives but decided a few more dollars would not make a difference and I would regret getting something that I didn't like. It's not as if you can try them on for a few days while you decide if you like them or not. I also attached a photo of my WK2 with the original 18" wheels. I bought four 20" OEM wheels on ebay for 1.000.00(shipping included). Put new Good Year Fotera's on for another $725.00 ,mounting and balancing included.
The side steps were $700.00 installed by the dealer. I thought about putting them on myself but for two hundred bucks I had them professionally installed. I'm only adding the prices I paid because it's usually the first thing I want to ask when I see something I like. I know it's not anything special with stock upgrades but that's the look I'm going for. I had a Commander for five years before this and I never went off roading so there is no need for all the cool mods I see being done on this site. Sorry the pictures are all over the place but I'm learning.
Re: Stainless VS Aluminum side steps
Look good. Thanks for sharing.

2010 Cross Country Championships Central
PRINCETON, N.J. -- The 2010 Ivy League Heptagonal Cross Country Championships are set to get underway Friday, Oct. 29 as the Ancient Eight begin postseason racing at Van Cortlandt Park in Bronx, N.Y.
The women's 5k begins at 11 a.m., followed by the men's five-mile race at 11:45 a.m. The awards ceremony for both will take place by the Tortoise and the Hare statue on Broadway.
Complete individual and team results will be posted at ivyleaguesports.com immediately following the meet.
The following is a brief preview of the women's competition:
Princeton enters the 2010 Ivy League Heptagonal Cross Country Championship as the four-time reigning team champion and looks to be the heavy favorite for a fifth consecutive title, returning three of the top five individual finishers from 2009.
Princeton's recent dominance aside, Harvard, Columbia and Cornell look to be clipping at the Tigers' heels. Brown, Dartmouth and Penn have been led by underclassmen for much of the year, and will look to their freshmen and sophomores to step up in the postseason as well. Yale, meanwhile, looks to a solid group of returners with a lot of experience under their belts.
Individually, three-time champion Liz Costello has departed due to graduation, leaving the field open for a new individual title winner in 2010.
See below for a team-by-team breakdown:
Brown Bears -- Ranked No. 12 in the Northeast Region...return four of their top five from last year's championship...placed fifth as a team in 2009...freshman Margaret Connelly has stepped up as the Bears' top runner for much of the season, completing her most recent 5k in 17:27.1.
Columbia Lions -- Ranked No. 7 in the Northeast Region...return three of their top five from last year's championship including Jackie Drouin who placed eighth overall...placed third as a team in 2009...Drouin's time of 17:34.4 ranks tied for the seventh fastest in Columbia history...sophomore Caroline McDonough and senior Druin have gone one-two in the Lions' last two races.
Cornell Big Red -- Ranked No. 5 in the Northeast Region...return four of their top five from last year's championship...placed fourth as a team in 2009...freshman Devin McMahon has been the Big Red's top finisher in three races this season, including their last two outings.
Dartmouth Big Green -- Ranked No. 15 in the Northeast Region...return three of their top five from last year's championship...placed sixth as a team in 2009...freshman Katelyn Walker led the Big Green in their last three races.
Harvard Crimson -- Ranked No. 6 in the Northeast Region...return all five scorers from last year's championship, including Claire Richardson who placed sixth overall...placed second as a team in 2009...Richardson's time of 17:28.1 ranks as the eighth fastest in Harvard history...Richardson was the top finisher twice this season as the Crimson upperclassmen continue to lead the squad.
Penn Quakers -- Ranked No. 9 in the Mid-Atlantic Region...return their top two finishers from last year's championship...placed seventh as a team in 2009...the Quakers are led by their underclassmen this season as sophomore Margaret Diacont, Leslie Kovach and Megan Powell and freshman Catherine Phillips have been Penn's top performers consistently throughout the fall.
Princeton Tigers -- Ranked No. 18 nationally and No. 3 in the Mid-Atlantic Region...return three of their top five from last year's championship-winning squad...returning trio of Alex Banfich, Sarah Cummings and Ashley Higginson placed second, third and fourth, respectively, in 2009...2009 Tigers were the first ever to finish one through five for 15 points...seeking a fifth consecutive team title in 2010...Banfich's time of 17:12.9 ranks the fifth fastest in Princeton history.
Yale Bulldogs -- Ranked No. 8 in the Northeast Region...return three of their top five from last year's championship...placed eighth as a team in 2009...junior Jennifer Downing has consistently been one of the Bulldogs' top performers this season, along with classmate Anne Lovelace, who was Yale's top finisher at the 2009 championships.

DHP - Is It Active Steering?
I am trying to get a couple things hammered out before I head over to the dealership to start testing out F30s. Is the Dynamic Handling Package steering the same as the Active Steering/variable steering of the E90? I heard a lot of negative things about that.
I would like the adaptive suspension, but I'm not sure of whether the variable steering is any different. I remember trying it on an early E90 and that I didn't like it as much as normal steering.
You get used to it, real fast. The entire package is amazing.
Go for the DHP. From someone who drives these cars day to day, getting the adaptive M suspension enables you to get the best out of your car, whether you want comfort, or sporty dynamics. It's a must.
I had an F30 as a loaner a couple of times. I believe it did not have VSS being a base model. The steering felt very easy, probably too easy when driving, provided little feel. I have an E90 currently and like that steering feel better. So if you get VSS, while I understand it is not the same as the E90 steering based on what is said above, how would you describe the VSS feel (ie how would one go about comparing it to the E90 steering)?
Yes, assuming neither car has active steering, steering in the F30 is much easier than steering in an E90.
And how would VSS compare to E90 steering?
On another note, I do miss the seating position of my E46 as compared to the F30. I cannot comment on this with an E90 since I have never driven one. Even when the sport seat is set to the highest position, one sits lower in the F30. This is most noticeable on narrow roads in city driving and when parking. This is about my only gripe about the F30. I am 5'8". However, it does not bother my 5'2" inch tall wife one bit.
My 2 cents:
Can't generalize f30 - 328i feels different than 335i. 335i is closer to feel with E90 than 328i - in general. 328i is too smooth for me, too disconnected from the road..
Of course when you change sport mode.. you get more out of the car (f30) - in general.. I'd say get DHP - you will be able to enjoy 4 flavors of driving with the same car -- really fun! .. and worth every bit of additional money you'd put into this option..
DHP will help you alter suspension of the car, in addition to the throttle response and steering feel.. - this I am telling you by experience... I've taken really long test drives on f30s with DHP.. and tested the options really well...
What are some good ways to validate DHP is working and start to explore what it brings to the car?
You should feel the difference in road feel as soon as you put it in sport mode. I do, it is a lot stiffer.
I would highly recommend DHP which gives you the ability to configure chassis damping and steering response. :thumbup:
It's quite obvious on Sport and Sport +. I have just approached the 1200 mile break-in and starting to appreciate the differences now.
I found something on another thread which I find helps to explain the differences when driving in the different modes. See below in quotes. This is pretty much what I am experiencing now as I am past my break-in and starting to push the car.
So far I am finding the same differences as described below between the Sport modes and Comfort/Eco Pro modes on my 335 M-Sport with the optional DHP package with ASS, and VSS. However, I cannot attest to the non-DHP models since I have not had experience with them. Anyway, here is the info as quoted below:
"Setting the adaptive suspension to "normal" does soften up the damping for a smoother ride on rougher pavement, but the actual base suspension in the Lux, Modern, and base models doesn't feel like the adaptive suspension.
With the adaptive suspension, not only are the dampers different, but so are the springs, compared to a non adaptive setup.
In "normal" mode the suspension is still a good bit better than the base suspension.
The ride quality between the 2 settings is noticeable, and so is the handling.
Another advantage you get with the DH pkg is that you can set up the "driving" mode in a couple different ways not offered without the DH pkg.
For example, you can set the steering firmness and suspension to be in "firm/sport" mode, while at the same time the throttle and auto trans work as they do in "normal" mode.
This gives you the sportier firm steering feel, along with the firmer and better handling sport suspension setting, but the sport AT will shift as it does in "normal" mode giving you all 8 gears for smoothest shifts, and lowest rpm running during highway speeds.
Without the DH pkg, when you set the driving mode to "sport", then you get the firmer steering, quicker throttle response, and the AT will hold shifts for higher rpm, but it won't shift to 8th gear by the time you get to 55mph."
With this said, I sure find that our new 2013 M-Sport to be much different in handling than our 2001 330ci. I still do miss a bit of that road feel in that car, but all in all, I find the new F30 to be much more refined in every way.
PS: My sincere thanks to the individual who explained the differences and apologies for any plagiarism.
Did anyone here opt out of DHP after testing cars with and without? If so, why?
The poster above was describing how you could change the shift point in I Drive using the DHP and get the shift point and the suspension to behave in "mixed modes". All I was pointing out was that the MT allows you to do that without $1,500 in options.
The 8AT does that with or without DHP. The reason to get DHP is for the dynamic suspension which allows for a pretty comfortable daily commuter or a harder suspension on demand.... and, to a lesser degree the variable steering rack that makes parking lot maneuvers effortless.
If you drove a car that you thought had DHP and couldn't notice a difference between modes, then the car you were driving didn't have DHP. It's not subtle.
There was a time in my life when I would not buy a car without a MT, but now it is the other way around. I would pay double or more for a car without a MT if I had too.
I did my homework and went to several dealers in our area for the best offer below MSRP on our 2013 335 M-Sport that paid for the "$500 paddles and extra $1000 for the DHP" and had money left over.

If you checked out our review of the sweet, sweet Qosmio G30-102 then read about Tosh's plans to upgrade it with an HD DVD-R drive but still didn't splash out you'll be glad you kept that money in your pocket...
Scooped by Froggy site PC Inpact, the Qosmio G40 is an absolute joy to the eyes having undergone a highly successful face lift swapping black for a new part black, part metallic finish and slimmer appearance (though still sub 5Kg weight).
On the inside things are also just as promising with a rocket powered nVidia GeForce Go 8600 GT at its core, an HDMI 1.3 output for full support of Deep Colour, dual 200GB HDDs and an HD DVD-R drive. The CPU is also a new Merom T7300 (2GHz). In fact, the only elements which haven't been greatly improved are 17in 1,920 x 1,200 display (though I suspect screen brightness/response time may be tweaked) and the already perfectly adequate 2GB of RAM.
There's no word on whether the G40 will benefit from wireless n but with support for the Socket P, T7300 (and therefore potentially the Centrino Pro chipset) I suspect there may be.
A sizeable 2,999 euro (£2,039) price tag has been levelled on the G40 but this is a sizeable machine due some big love.

Young actress resorts to online casino
Friday, February 3rd, 2012
After news about her addiction to gambling surfaced almost every newspaper, both tabloid and mainstream, this young actress who is the subject of our blind item has reduced her time being spent in casinos. But she, nonetheless, never got lose of her hobby altogether.
So that no one could see here now in casinos, the young actress had started betting in online casinos.
But unlike in conventional casinos where the young actress had been losing money, she seems to have found her
luck in online betting as news has it that she had been winning huge prizes.
Well, I guess online gambling is her game after all.

Will it Sustain? - three international exhibitions on sustainability
Under the title WILL IT SUSTAIN? the Danish Architecture Centre is presenting three international exhibitions on the theme of the paradoxes of sustainability. The exhibitions, Behind the Green Door, The Banality of Good and Shifts can be seen in conjunction with a wide range of debates, lectures, film screenings, family activities and guided tours.
The two smaller exhibitions,The Banality of Good and Shifts, is closing on 25th of May. The main exhibition Behind the Green Door is on display until 9th of June.
Can a window be sustainable, too sustainable and completely unsustainable all at the same time? Is a solar power-operated lawn mower sustainable, when it is designed to trim the artificial and intensively irrigated golf courses in desert states? These are some of the questions and dilemmas you face when you visit the exhibition in the Danish Architecture Centre.
Three international exhibitions on the theme of the paradoxes
of sustainability
Behind the Green Door >
The exhibition invite the audience to join them on a playful journey through the impact of sustainability on architecture, while taking a both affectionate and critical look at sustainability and green solutions.
The Banality of Good >
The Banality of Good provides visitors with a different perspective on sustainability. The exhibition approaches the concept from a social angle, in the context of urban planning.
SHIFTS: The Economic Crisis and its Consequences for Architecture >
The exhibition 'Shifts' looks at the influence of the financial crisis on architects and architecture's social role
Lectures, debates, films and family activities on the subject of sustainability
WILL IT SUSTAIN? is more than just exhibitions. It is also a rich programme of debates, lectures, film screenings, guided tours and family activities, all of which will take place during the period of the exhibition.
The Danish Architecture Centre will also provide the setting for debates and lectures on the subjects of sustainability and lifestyle, food and sustainability and much more.
Exhibitions, which travelled around the world
The three exhibitions have all been presented on international platforms throughout the world. Behind the Green Door was originally created as the main exhibition at the Oslo Architecture Triennale, which took place in autumn 2013. The Banality of Good was conceived for the latest International Architecture Biennale in Venice in 2012, and has since been shown in London and Brazil. Shifts: The Economic Crisis and its Consequences for Architecture was shown in London and Amsterdam in 2013.

" Brand: Asda - George / Type: Tunic "
When it comes to vest tops I wear alot of them for versatility and ease of looking after them. However from time to time I can appear a bit uniformed in my style so when I spotted this lovely bright red and white spotty top in my local Asda store costing £13.00 and in sizes 8-20 I decided to buy it!
In only the colour option which is the bright red and with small white dots in it and 4 little white 'for show' white buttons down the top centre of it this is made from 96% Viscose and 4% Elastane and is fully machine washable and suitable for tumble drying and ironing and I have washed and worn mine often and had no colour fade, shrinkage or anything else go wrong with this top at all.
I bought this in my usual size of a size 10 and its very true to size in my opinion. With wide straps which are wide enough to cover most bra straps and with an unrevealing round neck, this is a bum covering top with a slightly flared waist making it flattering and able to conceal up lumpy bumps and flabby bellies if you wanna hide em lol.
This is a nicely finished item, looks great dressed up or down, is lightweight and smooth on and I love my top and think thats it is worth every penny I paid for it given its versatility!
Only available from Asda stores.

|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
May's almost over, and interleague play's first series is over and done. The Orioles are still contending for the AL crown. The Indians are starting to build some room in their division. The Dodgers continue to dominate the standings. There's certainly plenty going on, so let's look at what would happen if the playoffs started as of Thursday, May 24 at 1:00pm:
The Dodgers are the first team to make it to 30 wins. They're still an impressive 19-4 at home, and have proven that they don't need Matt Kemp to do well. So when he does come back, the Dodgers will be that much more scary.
Both teams have similar record, but the Cardinals have also won three straight. Both teams are barely clinging to division leads. The Nationals are good at home, but have had a so-so road season so far. The Cardinals now know they may very well be without Lance Berkman for the season, if not multiple months, but they have room to prepare. All in all, momentum favors the reigning champions.
The Braves have lost three in a row and the Reds have won five in a row, and both teams are still contending for their divisions. But those three Atlanta losses? They're all to Cincinnati. The edge here clearly goes to the Reds.
Despite dropping two of three to the lowly Red Sox (now finally back at .500), the Orioles are still hanging in there nearly two months into the season. They're only 13-11 at home, but a muscular 15-6 on the road. Even hosting the Orioles, teams won't be safe.
Texas is running into issues lately, while Cleveland is getting better. They're even on the verge of sweeping divisional rival Detroit. With Josh Hamilton, the Rangers always have a chance, but with things going the way they are, this will be the upset if there is one.
The Rays have taken the past two of three against Toronto to stay in the hunt with Baltimore. In a series that could have seen Toronto surpass Tampa in the standings, the Rays came through and still have a solid team with which to make a run.

I can't stand the new Blender UI
I can't stand the new Blender UI
I hate the old 2.4x interface.
It is ugly. The new one is awesome but I don't need it because use hotkeys.
Just load a old blend file from 2.4x and save the ui layout.
Personally I'd recommend sticking with the 2.5x interface and getting familiar with it. I didn't like it at first, either, but after using it for a while I found it to be a hell of a lot better than the old one. This might help with the transition.
Sorry if I'm late to the whole physics boom
As a few of you posted their school assignments, here is mine.
I don't know yet if they will accept me.
A more recent video of my ball game made with unity 3.
I started a ball game on UDK, then I noticed nearly everyone makes ball games.
If so, somehow my vertices will get messed up when I insert them.
He is recommending you do plane modeling if this is not the case, which is the process of starting off with a single plane and pretty much dragging more out from that origin to make the model.
Don't do it by creating vertexes, start from a plane, move the vertexes to where you want them, select the edge and extrude it and move it's vertexes. Repeat. Or from a box but you need an open edge to extract edges so a plane is a good starting point.
I copied something nvidia made last thread
how did it turn out?
sweet he rated me artistic, I guess I did good
mini "render-farm" activated! Rendering simple turnarounds in VRAY across the machines.
It's nice because it opens a secondary instance of max on my workstation so that I can still work on the model why having it rendering.
looks nice
as always
I cant wait intill i move by myself. Gonna design the shit out of my workroom

Plot3D + Graphics3D
Is there a simple way to superimpose some 3D graphics
(curves, vectors, small planes) on top of the SurfaceGraphics
produced by Plot3D?
Clearly, I can build up the surface graphics from polygons
and then draw the lines.
Is there a set of routines to generate the surface in the 3D graphics
form? (I would rather not rewrite Plot3D!)

Drug 'Molly' is taking a party toll in the United States
By Victoria Cavaliere
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Artist and therapy student Anna and her friends marked a birthday in New York recently with a familiar ritual: They pumped up the electronic music, danced, and celebrated with a special guest called Molly.
"It was a group of about 12 people at someone's house and we were all just celebrating," Anna recalled. "Somebody had it and, and you know, it was a pretty electronic music kind of crowd."
Molly, an illegal stimulant frequently sold in pill form, has become prominent in the electronic music scene over the past decade, said Anna, 26, who did not want to give her full name because she is in school and "counseling people to be healthy."
Molly is the street name for a drug that is pushed as the pure powder form of a banned substance known as MDMA, the main chemical in ecstasy. In the last five years, Molly has made its way into popular culture, helped by references to it made by entertainers such as Madonna, Miley Cyrus and Kanye West.
The drug's dangers became more clear after a rash of overdoses and four deaths this summer, including two at a huge annual electronic music festival in New York City.
The parties of the late 1980s and early '90s saw the heyday of ecstasy, but its popularity began to wane a decade ago after a number of deaths and hospitalizations.
That's when Molly made her way onto the scene.
Over the last few years, drugs sold under that name have "flooded" the market, said Rusty Payne, a spokesman with the Drug Enforcement Administration. Continued...

Exhibition: Lynne Cohen - False Clues
December 5—March 7, 2014, Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri 11:00 am-4:30 pm
December 7—March 9, 2014, weekends 2:00 pm-5:00 pm
This event does NOT occur on:
December 15—January 19
University Museum of Contemporary Art
UMass Amherst Campus
Renowned Canadian artist Lynne Cohen has been photographing interior spaces ― laboratories, offices, health spas, classrooms, shooting ranges ― often wryly humorous, sometimes bleak, with an element of suspense and of uneasiness. Her large-format photographs are devoid of people but not of human presence. Through the seemingly fictional quality of these spaces, the purposes of which are as often as not ill-defined, Cohen creates a cross between documentary photography and artifice, sense and nonsense, the ordinary and dream-like. Her vision is informed by a deep feeling for the mystery in the ordinary: what is on the surface but out of sight.

Take CableTV.com's Advice and Make DIRECTV Your Next TV Service Provider
We want to help you find the best television services available in your area, which is why we've compiled results from a number of independent consumer surveys—to make it easy for you to find the best cable companies and other TV services for your home. Between all of the satellite TV and cable companies in Clever, MO, these surveys show that DIRECTV is considered to be the best TV service provider in the area.
Price isn't the only factor that determines the best cable company in Clever, MO. Channel selection is another important thing to consider. A premier package, for instance, typically costs more but includes more channels, which may be the best option for your household if you want access to both your favorite programs and Kansas City Chiefs and NCAA games. And while most major networks are available with any of the TV packages in Clever, access to smaller networks and local channels may vary from city to city. To make the research process simpler and easier, we've compiled the data for you. We even fill you in on which are the highest rated providers available in Clever. This allows you to access information on multiple companies' packages in one place, ensuring that you get the extra features and channels you need.
Finding the right TV provider is about more than finding certain channels or a really low price. You should look for a company that offers top-notch customer support and service you can count on, in addition to affordable prices. Fortunately, CableTV.com makes recommendations based on these important considerations. If you're looking for an exceptional cable company in Clever, MO, visit CableTV.com—relying on the suggestions and information at this site will help you find a company with friendly representatives, top-of-the-line service, and more.

The English are starting to remind me of "The Eloi" from H.G.Wells' "The Time Machine".

Young folks cautioned about being habitual knife carriers. Check out this CNN article, towards the bottom.
Comment at will.
Man guilty of killing 'Harry Potter' actor - CNN.com
The English are starting to remind me of "The Eloi" from H.G.Wells' "The Time Machine".
Since guns are outlawed, knives are becoming a monumental problem in Great Britten.
A good friend of mine visited us for a few nights over Christmas, and he told me that the knife I normally carry (Bencmade 4-inch) would be considered a weapon there, and Id be arrested, so dont bring it when I visit him.
Even stranger, is even if you have a badge and can carry a gun, you still cannot carry a knife of that size, and showed me he carried a 2-inch Swiss Army knife.
Maybe if people started using common sense to find the root causes of violence instead of blaming the tool used we wouldn't have nonsensical articles like this... What a terrible wrong way to look at the problem we've developed...
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes
The will to win is worthless if you do not have the will to prepare. -Thane Yost
Insert "gun" for the word knife... That's what we were hearing over there a few years back. Looks like banning guns really cut down on the violence. What will the weapon of choice be once all knife crime is "stamped out?" ballpoint pens? forks? pointy sticks?Knife crime in Britain is a political hot topic due to a spate of recent killings of mainly young people in major cities. UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown has urged tougher sentences for those caught carrying knives. He told the Daily Telegraph last month: "By carrying a knife you are not only endangering the lives of others, but you are more likely to be killed, or end up in jail.
"We need to change the way young people think about knives, we need families and communities working together ... to get this message across and help stamp out knife crime and get weapons off our streets."
"I do not love the bright sword for it's sharpness, nor the arrow for it's swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend" J.R.R. Tolkien
They deserve it. Don't get me wrong, I don't want anybody to get hurt. But they let their freedom be taken away. They let their right to defend themselves be revoked. Let them cower in fear in their "flats" as the BG's walk around with steak knives.
I dream of a day when my children will live in a world without the shackles of cause and effect. - S. Colbert
It's a simple fix.....first register all knives.......then ban all knifes
then register all bows and arrows ....... then ban all bow and arrow
then register all rocks ........then ban all rocks, etc. etc. etc.

Blessed be the Lord my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight.

I visited the British Blade Forums. You can google them to find it.
It's amazing to read about some of the knife laws in the
U.K. We have it pretty good over here in the States, I think
we forget about that sometimes.
I never realised that by carrying a knife I was more likely to be killed or end up in Jail,been carrying a knife for years ,I must have picked good knifes I've never had one jump out of my pocket and stab somebody
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
Who would think banning firearms would increase knife usage?
Get the U.N. out of the U.S.
Get the U.S. out of the U.N.
Dang, somebody had better tell the Boy Scouts! They're endangering innocent boys! And to think, I actually taught Scouts their Totin' Chip. . .
Life is about choices. One who chooses to attack without cause has also chosen to accept whatever defensive measures his target has readied. If this includes violence and death, so be it.

About Me
I focus on the emotion and the story that a photograph can tell. The simplest photo can say a lot and I strive to make all of my photos "talk".
On-Location shoots are my specialty, I can shoot ANYWHERE and achieve a great shot. I love to shoot on location because the studio bores me after a while. Why sit in a studio when you can freeze outside and get outstanding shots!! lol
I don't do TFP/TFCD..I do nothing without a deposit!!
If you need a makeup artist, I have a fabulous one! She will hook you up!! (for a nominal fee of course).
I do not recylcle ideas or locations, every one of my photo shoots are unique. I guarantee that you will get a shot that no one else could dream up!!!
By the way, I'm also a graphic designer, so if you need sleek print collateral, you know who to come to.

4 images of some autumnal forest setting.
Mind the rules pls.
Hello there!
I don't have much to tell you, I simply created this account in order to share my pictures with you guys, in hope that you find them helpful for your needs, furthermore I thought it was a better idea than letting them "rot" on my harddisk.
I'm pretty close to nature, so that's why you'll find lots of beautiful captured moments in the "nature" gallery. Furthermore, I'm quite into gothic music, art and lifestyle, of course you can find all necessary clichés like statues, cemeteries and other dark stuff
Another gallery which means a lot to me is the "medieval" gallery. I visit medieval markets at least 3-4 times a year and I love the atmosphere there..may be that's the gallery which will be extended most.
Hope you like my galleries, help yourselves and always feel free to contact me for any inquieries or whatever. (But please- do see the rules in my journal!)
Also check out my art account as well as my Medieval Stock group:
Please take some time to read the rules for the use of my stock:
Update 11/2013
I get notifications & messages on a daily basis, I habe no chance to keep up with that. Furthermore, I've started professional stock accounts on Fotolia, 500px etc in oder to sell my work. I've thought about it a lot and here's the update:
My complete stock here on DA is free. Do whatever you want to do with it, use it outside of DA, whatever. One rule still remains: Give credit!
Current Residence: Germany
deviantWEAR sizing preference: M
Favourite genre of music: Gothic, Metal, Electronic
Favourite style of art: Gothic/Dark
Operating System: Win7
Personal Quote: Can't rain all the time...

Cuyahoga Falls, OH – The American Heart Association has awarded Western Reserve Hospital with its highest "Fit-Friendly" worksite honors based on the hospital's many programs and initiatives that encourage the staff to make healthy choices.
"Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, and making the choice to develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle can literally be a life or death decision," said Dr. Michael Bage, cardiologist at Western Reserve Hospital. "We actively encourage our employees to be healthy, and we're honored to be recognized for our success with this award."
Fit-Friendly workplaces are selected based on a set of detailed criteria. In order to achieve the highest "platinum" level, workplaces must offer employees physical activity support, increased healthy eating options and promote a wellness culture. Platinum employers must implement at least six physical activity criteria, two nutrition criteria, one culture criteria and at least one other behavior change or cost savings outcome. Fit-Friendly honors are assessed and awarded twice per year.
"As a hospital, many of our employees take their personal health very seriously, and we're proud to provide numerous effective outlets for them," said Johanna Tanno, Wellness Coordinator. "Receiving the platinum-level award is a testament to our vision of creating a healthier work environment."
The hospital's FITone wellness program offers employees a wide variety of health initiatives, including walking paths, healthy cafeteria options, exercise programs during and after work hours, stress management, self-defense classes and more. Between January and March, the staff at Western Reserve participated in a weight-loss competition with 13 other organizations, winning second place by shedding a collective 828 pounds.

Now that Microsoft's Internet Explorer 9 is out in the wild, Google has released its WebM video plugin which will allow IE 9 to play WebM video. The new IE 9 supports the HTML5 video tag out of the box, but it can only play back H.264 video, not the Google-backed WebM video codec.
If you've upgraded to IE 9 and would like to make sure that WebM video will work when you encounter it, head over to the Google WebM for IE 9 download page.
For all the promise of HTML5 video, there is, as of now, no single video codec that works in every web browser. That's a pain for publishers who need to encode every video in two codecs and a pain for users, who need to install extensions, like Google's new WebM for IE 9 or Microsoft's H.264 plugins for Firefox and Chrome (Windows only).
Until recently Google's Chrome web browser was the only browser that supported both formats (and the OGG format), but then Google announced it would drop support for H.264 in Chrome in order to drive adoption of WebM video. Converting YouTube videos to use WebM would be a huge boon for WebM, but so far Google has not done that.
It would also greatly help the WebM cause if Adobe Flash could play WebM video. Since there is no "it just works" codec for HTML5 video, most websites still fall back to Flash video. Because Flash can play H.264 video it makes more sense for publishers to encode video in H.264 and serve it natively to Safari and IE 9 users, while falling back to a Flash container for browsers that don't natively support H.264.
If the WebM project is going to make it through these transitional times, it needs to get Adobe to support WebM in Flash, which would remove one of H.264's primary advantages — that it works in Flash as well. In the mean time, at least there is the IE 9 plugin, which means Apple's Safari is now the only browser on the web that can't play WebM video.

The pros about having this surgery for me was getting my hair back in the areas where I thought it was gone for good. The cons about the surgery for me was the swelling after the surgery which last about 4 days and the discomfort of the stitches in the donor area. My personal goal was to get my hair back, the outcome was absolutely wonderful. I have seen significant growth in the areas where. I received the transplant within 9 months after the surgery.
I have been wearing tight micro braids, kinky twists, and weaves for years which in turn damaged my hairline beyond repair, which I thought. I have undergone steriod shots from my dermatologist, different topical treatments which unfortunately did not work. I decided that I had enough of the steriod shots with no results and coloring in the bald areas with eyeliner pencil.
I googled hair transplants for African American Women and noticed that Dr. John Frank was on ABC news and I saw that he actually performed one on a African American woman and her results were phenomenal. The procedure has changed my life in a positive way. I can wear my hair back with out having to color in the bald areas with eyeliner and I look much younger. I wish I would have known about the procedure sooner, however I am glad that I had it done. I absolutely love, love, love, Dr. Frank and his staff they are so pleasant and friendly. If you have any questions you will get answer within a timely manner. I just want to say to whoever reads this review and is on the fence about getting a hair transplant, please Dr. John Frank you will not regret your decision at all.

Project Playlist
The music you listen to can say a lot about you. If you're into the social networking Web sites (like MySpace, for example), you might like to post some of your favorites on your profile. But, if you're not sure, how would you go about doing that? Certain sites like MySpace allow you to place a song on your page, but you're also limited to a small selection and only one song. So, how would you like to be able to have a whole playlist of your favorite songs instead? Wouldn't that be great?! Well, that's exactly what we'll be doing today with a great Web site called Project Playlist. Are you ready? Then let's go!
1.) First, visit this link. That is the registration page for Project Playlist.
2.) You just need to create a username and password, fill in some of the other simple fields (like your name and e-mail address) and you'll be all set. When you're finished, click Create New Account.
3.) Next, some advertisements from sponsors will be displayed. Just go ahead and click on the link that says, "No thanks, continue to my account," which is listed right under the ads.
4.) Now, just log in to your account with the information you just created.
5.) You will then be taken to your homepage. To start adding music right away, click the button on the toolbar.
6.) Next, type one of your favorite songs in the search box and then click Search.
7.) You will then see a few listings of the song. Next to the listing that looks to be by the correct artist you're looking for, click this plus sign:
8.) A confirmation page will then appear. To make sure the song works and it's correct, press the large Play button. If it is correct, press the green Check button. If it doesn't work, click the red X and continue with step 6 until you find exactly what you're looking for.
9.) Next, click the link that says, "Click here to create a playlist."
10.) The song will then be added to your playlist! You will also see that you can add up to 74 more of your favorite songs to that same playlist. How cool is that?! To keep going, click Continue and then repeat steps 5 through 9 again until you've added as many songs as you'd like.
11.) When you're done adding all of your songs and you want to put them on your site, just click the button on the toolbar.
12.) In the middle column, under Manage My Account, click the link that says, "Add your playlist to MySpace or Facebook."
13.) Then click the link that says, "Get the code." (That's the HTML code you will need in order to put your songs on your profile).
14.) Now, select which code you want. You can choose between MySpace, Facebook or any other site you may use.
15.) Next, go ahead and select the playlist that is listed.
16.) Now, you'll be able to tweak the player. You can select the color you'd like it to be, if you want it to automatically start when someone visits your profile and finally, if you want the songs to play in a random order. When you're all done setting it up, click Get Code!
17.) A large chunk of code will then be displayed. Highlight all of it with your mouse, right click and choose Copy. It will then be saved to your clipboard. Next, navigate to your profile page, open up the area where you can edit your profile, right click again and then choose Paste. That will paste the code to your site so that it will show up for all your visitors. Voila! You now have your very own playlist of all your favorite songs!
Now, in the future, if you want to add more songs, you just have to search and add the song. You don't even have to recopy the HTML code. Then within a few minutes of adding the song, it will appear on your profile. Isn't that just great? I hope you enjoy this one!
