[TULSA 4 SAINT LOUIS 3] Tulsa recovered from blowing 2-0 and 3-1 leads and giving up an equalizer with five seconds left in regulation to beat Saint Louis, 4-3, on Ashley McInnes' golden goal seven minutes into overtime Sunday afternoon in NCAA Tournament second-round action at Hurricane Stadium.
Austin Neal and Blaine Gonsalves scored less than two minutes apart midway through the first half to give Tulsa a 2-0 lead. On a counter-attack off a Billiken corner, Jose Parada raced
three-quarters of the length of the field and drew goalie Ross Kaufman off his line. With a pair of defenders on his back, Parada calmly chipped the ball over Kaufman for the third Tulsa goal.
"I think we started the game really well," Tulsa coach Tom McIntosh said. "We got forward quickly, created chances and caused them problems, but our back line got too deep and we lost a lot of
loose balls. We battled well and responded well in overtime. This was a good win against a really good team, and now we are going to prepare for Northwestern."
Freshman forward Alex Sweetin
scored SLU's first two goals, and senior James Dice recorded a goal with just five seconds left in regulation to knot the score at 3-3 heading into overtime.
"That game was an
example of what these guys are all about, they never say die and battle until the very end," SLU coach Dan Donigan said. "Credit Tulsa, they are a great team and scored a great goal to send us home.
This is one of the most mentally-toughest teams I've had. We have a bright future with this group. I'm sad for the seniors, but they should be proud. They led this team to a great season."

Brian Smith, England's former attack coach, has let rip at the Rugby Football Union and called for the return of Sir Clive Woodward.
Smith, who quit his job after England's World Cup failure, wants Stuart Lancaster rather than South Africa's Nick Mallett to succeed his old boss Martin Johnson.
But he believes Lancaster needs more experience around him and feels World Cup winner Woodward is the missing piece in the jigsaw.
"Stuart's in a good position," said Smith, who has rejoined London Irish as director of rugby. "He's feeling that love you feel when you're in that honeymoon phase and I wish him every success.
"I can see the RFU leaving Stuart and the two coaches who are there with him and bringing someone like Clive in over the top to work with him.
"The pressures of the job are enormous, as we saw when things got a bit sticky for us at the World Cup. There's not too many people in this country who really know how to do it.
"You would think the new CEO (Ian Ritchie) would see Clive as a resource. It would make sense to support the current coaching group with a mentor."
Four months after resigning his England post, Smith remains bitter over the World Cup fallout which he
He is still furious at the damage caused to himself and others by the leaking to The Times of confidential reports, containing anonymous player testimony.
"It was unpleasant, it was grubby in the extreme," he said. "But the organisation (RFU) involved is the organisation that's been involved in a lot of messy, grubby things in recent times.
"One or two individuals conducted themselves appallingly. There was a lot of collateral damage that involved individuals and families. It wasn't very pleasant and the players were betrayed.
"For a month after the World Cup I couldn't watch a game of rugby. It was tough for me personally, real tough. The only good thing was that it didn't affect my (three) kids, them being so young."
Smith claims "most people" know who leaked the reports and why, but won't name names. He does, however, make plain his contempt for The Times, over what he saw as unbalanced reporting of the players' views.
One remarked that Smith "didn't offer anything". Another testified that England's attack play was "boring, uninventive, even schoolboy" at times.
"They only showed the bottom five per cent of comments that were put out there," said the Australian. "That was not only reckless but damaging."

A moment with ... Jesse Spector, University of Pennsylvania senior and potential Expos owner
Published 10:00 pm, Monday, February 25, 2002
Spector, 20, is the man behind a Web site (www.buytheexpos.poptopix.com) accepting contributions for a fund to buy the Expos. Major League Baseball paid $100 million to buy the team from Jeffrey Loria.
Q: Are you out of your mind?
A: This is basically the world's largest office gag spread out of control. We were sitting around the office (at the Daily Pennsylvanian, the student newspaper) a couple of weeks ago, and I just said, "Wouldn't it be cool to buy the Expos? How much would you guys kick in to buy the Expos?" We all agreed to put in $15 apiece. We went around the office asking people to contribute, and by the end of the night we had $456. I put it online that night and sent e-mail to friends, and it has spun completely out of control.
Latest videos
Q: I notice your Web address has changed. What happened?
A: ESPN.com did a story on us, and things just got crazy. I originally put it on my Web page that the university gives us for free, but I didn't think they'd appreciate all that traffic. We've had 20,000 hits since the ESPN story was posted on Friday.
Q: How much money has been pledged?
A: We're at almost $1 million. Before the ESPN story, it was at about $100,000.
Q: So are you actually prepared to run a major league baseball team, should it come to that?
A: Yeah, absolutely. I'd love to do that. Actually, I really want to be a sportswriter, and get paid to go to games and write about them. But if I can't do that, being an owner would be good.
Q: Do you have French speakers in your group to handle the business end in Montreal?
A: We've had a few bids from Quebec, so hopefully those people can help. I took two years of French in high school, but all I could say would be "Ou est Estade Olympique?" ("Where is Olympic Stadium?")
Q: You might be in way over your head here. What do your parents think about all this?
A: They pledged $100 each. They think it's funny, until they get that phone call from federal prison.
Q: I'm concerned other teams would take advantage of you as college students. What if the Dodgers offered you 1,000 cases of beer for Orlando Cabrera?
A: I don't think we'd do that. Maybe for Peter Bergeron. Cabrera is a valuable asset to the team.

New Delhi, Dec 25: The BJP on Tuesday said "accumulated anger" of the people over the government's failure to ensure law and order over a period of time is the reason for the outrage and protests here and in other parts of the country. "Whatever has been happening in the capital is due to the accumulation of anger of people over the law and order situation here. It is not just because of this particular incident (of gangrape)," BJP leader M Venkaiah Naidu said here.
He was addressing a rally dedicated to the rape victim on the 88th birthday of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Naidu alleged that people were losing faith in the Parliamentary system due to the policies and attitude of the Congress-led UPA government.
"The government is ignoring the Parliamentary system... During the Winter Session also, we had raised the issue of gangrape. Seven days after the session is over, the Prime Minister has come out with a statement," he said. The BJP leader said the government rejected his party's demand to either call a special session of Parliament to discuss issues related to women's safety or an all-party meeting to assure the people that the political system was working for them.
"Last night, we met President Pranab Mukherjee. He assured us that he will talk to the Prime Minister on the issue," Naidu said. Addressing the gathering, BJP President Nitin Gadkari said the party should work towards creating a system where "no goon should dare to look towards women in the society". On the 88th birthday of Vajpayee, which is celebrated by the BJP as 'Good Governance Day', Gadkari came out with the list of achievements of BJP-ruled states including Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Chhattisgarh.

SZYMANOWSKI: Songs of a Fairy-tale Princess; Harnasie; Love Songs of Hafiz
The Polish composer Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937) is one of more engaging composers of the early twentieth century.
Kathleen Ferrier Remembered, from SOMM Recordings, makes available on CD archive broadcasts of British and German song. All come from BBC broadcasts made between 1947 and 1952. Of the 26 tracks in this collection, 19 are "new", not having been commercially released. The remaining seven have been remastered by sound restoration engineer Ted Kendall. Something here even for those who already own the complete recordings.
The Requiem text has brought out the best in many composers. Requiem settings by Mozart, Verdi, and Fauré are among the most beloved works among singers and listeners alike, and there are equally wondrous settings by Berlioz and Duruflé, as well as composers from before 1750, notably Jean Gilles.
Matthias Goerne Schumann Lieder, with Markus Hinterhäuser, a new recording from Harmonia Mundi. Singers, especially baritones, often come into their prime as they approach 50, and Goerne, who has been a star since his 20's is now formidably impressive. The colours in his voice have matured, with even greater richness and depth than before.
La Jacquerie—here recorded for the first time—proves to be a wonderful opera, bringing delight upon delight.
Good news for lovers of Mozart's Marriage of Figaro: the famous Living Stereo recording, a co-production of RCA Victor and English Decca, is now available again, well remastered, on Urania.
In May 2016, Opera Rara gave Bellini aficionados a treat when they gave a concert performance of Vincenzo Bellini's first opera, Adelson e Salvini, at the Barbican Hall. The preceding week had been spent in the BBC's Maida Vale Studios, and this recording, released last month, is a very welcome addition to Opera Rara's bel canto catalogue.
Jonas Kaufmann Mahler Das Lied von der Erde is utterly unique but also works surprisingly well as a musical experience. This won't appeal to superficial listeners, but will reward those who take Mahler seriously enough to value the challenge of new perspectives.
A new recording, made late last year, Morfydd Owen : Portrait of a Lost Icon, from Tŷ Cerdd, specialists in Welsh music, reveals Owen as one of the more distinctive voices in British music of her era : a grand claim but not without foundation. To this day, Owen's tally of prizes awarded by the Royal Academy of Music remains unrivalled.
The Feast at Solhaug : Henrik Ibsen's play Gildet paa Solhaug (1856) inspired Wilhelm Stenhammer's opera Gillet på Solhaug. The world premiere recording is now available via Sterling CD, in a 3 disc set which includes full libretto and background history.
Honours yet again to Oehms Classics who understand the importance of excellence. A composer as good, and as individual, as Walter Braunfels deserves nothing less.
'Can great music be inspired by the throw of the dice?' asks Peter Phillips, director of The Tallis Scholars, in his liner notes to the ensemble's new recording of Josquin's Missa Di dadi (The Dice Mass). The fifteenth-century artist certainly had an abundant supply of devotional imagery. As one scholar has put it, during this age there was neither 'an object nor an action, however trivial, that [was] not constantly correlated with Christ or salvation'.
Francesco Cavalli's La Calisto was the composer's fifteenth opera, and the ninth to a libretto by Giovanni Faustini (1615-1651). First performed at the Teatro Sant'Apollinaire in Venice on 28th November 1651, the opera by might have been sub-titled 'Gods Behaving Badly', so debauched are the deities' dalliances and deviations, so egotistical their deceptions.
New from Oehms Classics, Walter Braunfels Orchestral Songs Vol 1. Luxury singers - Valentina Farcas, Klaus Florian Vogt and Michael Volle, with the Staatskapelle Weimar, conducted by Hansjörg Albrecht.
Edouard Lalo (1823-92) is best known today for his instrumental works: the Symphonie espagnole (which is, despite the title, a five-movement violin concerto), the Symphony in G Minor, and perhaps some movements from his ballet Namouna, a scintillating work that the young Debussy adored.
Two new recordings from highly acclaimed specialists Opera Rara - Gounod La Colombe and Donizetti Le Duc d'Albe.
It is not often that a major work by a forgotten composer gets rediscovered and makes an enormously favorable impression on today's listeners. That has happened, unexpectedly, with Herculanum, a four-act grand opera by Félicien David, which in 2014 was recorded for the first time.
This recording, made in the Adrian Boult Hall at the Birmingham Conservatoire of Music in June 2014, is the fourth disc in SOMM's series of recordings with Paul Spicer and the Birmingham Conservatoire Chamber Choir.
Félicien David's intriguing Le désert, for vocal and orchestral forces plus narrator, was widely performed in its own day, then disappeared from the performing repertory for nearly a century.
This well-packed disc is a delight and a revelation. Until now, even the most assiduous record collector had access to only a few of the nearly 100 songs published by Félicien David (1810-76), in recordings by such notable artists as Huguette Tourangeau, Ursula Mayer-Reinach, Udo Reinemann, and Joan Sutherland (the last-mentioned singing the duet "Les Hirondelles" with herself!).
This new release of John Taverner's virtuosic and florid Missa Corona spinea (produced by Gimell Records) comes two years after The Tallis Scholars' critically esteemed recording of the composer's Missa Gloria tibi Trinitas, which topped the UK Specialist Classical Album Chart for 6 weeks, and with which the ensemble celebrated their 40th anniversary. The recording also includes Taverner's two settings of Dum transisset Sabbatum.
The Polish composer Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937) is one of more engaging composers of the early twentieth century.
While he wrote in several genres, the works that involve orchestra are evocatively colorful and those with voice quite soaring. This single CD includes some of Szymanowski's finest works, two orchestral song cycles, the three Songs of a Fairy-tale Princess, op. 31 (1933), and the Love Songs of Hafiz, op. 26 (1914), along with the ballet-pantomime Harnasie, op. 55 (1935). The latter work, regarded as one of his masterpieces, resembles more a cantata with its use of chorus and solo tenor. Conceived in two parts, Harnasie is an atmospheric piece that deals with the abduction of a bride from her wedding by the robber Harnaś and his eventual taking her as his not unwilling bride. The story is set in the Tatra area of Poland, and as such makes use of evoking local color through melodic and thematic motifs and also its sensitive and highly colorful orchestration. It is a tour-de-force that is highly dramatic when executed with the precision that Sir Simon Rattle brings to this performance.
The first part of the work sets the stage for the action, with the various pieces establishing the sonic and timbral idiom Szymanowski conceived for the work. It is more symphonic than the second part, which opens with a striking depiction of the Polish wedding scene. That scene makes use of choral forces that capture the mood well in this particular recording. The stark open sonorities suggest the kind of eastern European ritual that Stravinsky captured in more sustained fashion in Les noces. Harnasie is a different kind of work, and its musical narrative makes use of other impulses in its structure. The entrance of the bride, for example, brings into the wedding scene elements from the first part of the work, and the stylized songs and dances that follow bring make use of elements related to Polish culture. Rattle allows these elements to emerge clearly and without artifice. He brings to the score a sense of narrative that creates the seamless quality Szymanowski intended in the score. The sometimes unique scorings are articulated clearly and underscore the melodic and rhythmic ideas that Szymanowski develops in this complex yet accessible work.
With the final scene, the solo tenor voice that belongs to the character of the robbers' leader Harnaś poses the question that brings about the dénouement. This brief number is the critical element that must strike the right tone in its function as the raison d'être for the entire piece. Harnaś asks the bride whether she wants to see him or another, presumably the intended groom ("Powiydyzze mi powiydz / do uska prawego, / cy mnie rada widzis, cy kogo innegi?") and, in this single piece, Szymanowski brings the work to its dramatic conclusion. Robinson's interpretation is moving, with the florid line expressing the passionate side of the Polish robber.
The two orchestral song cycles included with Harnasie are equally masterful works. The first, the Songs for a Fairy-tale Princess are three highly ornate works that demand the kind of accomplished coloratura that Iwona Sobotka brings to this performance. The topics of the songs are hardly exotic: "The Lonely Moon," "The Nightingale," and "Dance." Yet the music conveys an exotic quality in the elaborate, almost improvisatory-sounding lines. In contrast to the extended harmonic idiom Szymanowski used earlier in his career, the music seems related to impressionism and more Eastern-influenced melodic patterns. While its underlying structure is diatonic, the details suggest more remote musical associations.
In a similar way the Love Songs of Hafiz belong to the same world as the Songs for a Fair-Tale Princess. The texts of the Love Songs of Hafiz are derived from the interpretations of Persian verse by the German poet Hans Bethge, the author Die chinesische Flöte, which Mahler used for his orchestral song cycle Das Lied von der Erde. In these Polish translations of the Bethge's German verse, nothing is lost in the linguistic shifts. These are poems that bring the Eastern world to West through the brilliant musical mind of Szymanowski. More adventurous, perhaps, such the post-Romanticism of Zemlinsky's Lyrische Symphonie, Szymanowski's set of eight songs are a profoundly moving work. Rattle brings a fine interpretation to this recording, which benefits from the elegant voice of Katarina Karnéus. Her low range is burnished and she offers an even tone in the passages that require a higher and–at times–sustained tessitura. Unquestionably lyric in approaching this piece, Karnéus also demonstates her capacity for dramatic expression in interpreting this work.
Those who may not be familiar withSzymanowski's music will find this recording to be an excellent introduction to his work. The performers with the City of Birmingham Symphony and Chorus offer are sensitive to his style, and with this choice of pieces. Rattle offers a masterful interpretation to some of Szymanowski's finest compositions. The three works were were recorded in studio and date from three sessions, Harnasie from 23-25 October 2002, the Love Songs from Hafiz from 30 June 2004, and the Songs of a Fairy-tale Princess from 20 March 2006. While some may be familiar with these works through earlier recordings, these recent ones bear attention for the nuanced expression they bring to the scores. It is easy to recommend this recording not only for the choice of music included, but also its impressive execution.

European shares lifted by positive business surveys, Commerzbank
* FTSEurofirst 300 up 0.3 pct, Euro STOXX 50 up 0.5 pct
* Athens' ATG up 3.1 percent as banks rally after ECB test
* Commerzbank gains after dividend news, HSBC slips
* Electrolux down as U.S. rejects proposal on GE business (Updates prices at close)
By Kit Rees and Danilo Masoni
LONDON, Nov 2 (Reuters) - European shares had a positive start to the week after business surveys (PMIs) from around the euro zone beat expectations, while Commerzbank's better-than-expected results brightened a mixed picture for earnings season.
Traders also noted supportive comments from the European Central Bank (ECB) after its president, Mario Draghi, said in an interview over the weekend that it was ready to do what it takes to keep its medium-term inflation target on course.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index was up 0.3 percent at the close, reversing early losses after weak Chinese data sparked global growth concerns, while the euro zone's blue-chip Euro STOXX 50 index was up 0.5 percent at the close.
"We've seen some strong German PMI figures which does breathe some optimism back into the market," Charles Hanover Investments advisory investment manager, Jonathan Roy, said, noting that investors were being driven back into equities on the expectation of higher earnings and more liquidity.

"P155 poor narration"
The narration REALLY spoils this book, otherwise this is a really good book, a real shame.
"Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?"
The Authors are Smarter Than A 5th Grader, but unfortunately, the narrator reads like one. He seems to read word-by-word with no comprehension of the meaning. In the English language, meaning is conveyed a great deal by emphasis on words, but this narrator frequently emphasizes the wrong words, making it hard to ascertain the point. Instead of reading with comprehension, he habitually emphasizes pronouns (even though they're usually the least important words), and when you get the word "you", "your", or "their" several times in one sentence it really gets ridiculous. And when you are listening while driving you simply can't keep re-winding to figure out the true meaning of the sentence. And if you keep going, you miss new information while you are trying to figure out what he actually meant.
When I went back and listened again to several of the chapters, they made more sense to me the second time around, and I realized there's some valuable information in this book.
Might be better to purchase it in book form.
"Great break down of ways to get started."
I am excited to start flipping houses and love all the possibilities in real estate.
"Narrator is a robot?"
The content was good and what was advertised. The narration was horrible. Robot voice.

It is very important as it has to do with the free exercise of religion. The entire purpose of having church-based schools is so that children can be educated in an environment where they are also immersed in the tenets of the faith. This is important from the standpoint of actual religious education which you cannot receive from a secular government school, and also extends to fellowship with other people from like backgrounds and reinforcement of the Catholic lifestyle. These are all essential parts of being a Catholic both religiously AND CULTURALLY as I have commented on on numerous occasions.<quoted text>
You keep harping on what the Catholic Church believes, as if this is what is legally important.
Having an open homosexual teaching gym class is simply not consistent with what most Catholic parents want their children to be exposed to at that age.
Maybe people at the school knew about her perversion, maybe they didn't. The important thing is that the parents didn't know and once they complained the church had only one decision it could make.

12 Aspects of a Great Place to Work (Aspects 1-6)
Posted by
Chris Woolard
Wednesday, October 19, 2011
Tony Schwartz recently posted this
about 12 things companies should be doing to be considered a great place to work. I have posted six of the twelve below with a few of my thoughts after each. I will post the other six next week.
"1. Commit to paying every employee a living wage. To see examples of how much that is, depending on where you live, go to
this site
. Many companies do not meet that standard for many of their jobs. It's nothing short of obscene to pay a CEO millions of dollars a year while paying any employee a sum for full time work that falls below the poverty line."
I completely agree, pay must meet a minimum threshold level to support an individual and/or family. When employees are constantly stressed about where the next meal will come from, they will not be very productive and focused on the job.
"2. Give all employees a stake in the company's success, in the form of profit sharing, or stock options, or bonuses tied to performance. If the company does well, all employees should share in the success, in meaningful ways."
I LOVE this idea. I firmly believe if employees have a stake in the game, they will make decisions that are in the best interest of the company rather than just in the best interest of themselves. However, these incentives are usually reserved for only the most Senior people, which I completely disagree with. Everyone in the company should reap some of the rewards of the success of the company.
"3. Design
working environments
that are safe, comfortable and appealing to work in. In offices, include a range of physical spaces that allow for privacy, collaboration, and simply hanging out."
I am more in favor of an Indiana Jones type of entry to the workplace where poison arrows and boulders are chasing you in. I think productivity in the first hour of work would sky rocket.
"4. Provide healthy, high quality food, at the lowest possible prices, including in vending machines."
I think it is great that companies offer coffee and soda. Walker offers free soda and coffee and I thought it was wonderful when my especially delicious Mountain Dew started magically showing up in the soda cooler each morning. Each morning was like Christmas morning as I made my way to the cooler to enjoy that sweet nectar. However, I noticed I started to put on weight and was more irritable in the evenings. Now, I am a big boy and if I see what it does to my physically, it is my responsibility, and no one else's, to cut down on the soda consumption. However, if there were healthy alternatives, I might partake in those. Walker has started offering teas, which I do enjoy regularly and has helped off-set the Dew consumption. I do know companies offer juices, granola bars, and fruit for free in hopes of having a healthier workforce.
"5. Create places for employees to rest and renew during the course of the working day and encourage them to take intermittent breaks. Ideally, leaders would permit
afternoon naps
, which fuel higher productivity in the several hours that follow."
Afternoon naps, are you kidding me???? How could this not be the most brilliant idea in the history of mankind (outside of the invention of Mountain Dew)? Of course, when you get free soda and coffee, napping in the afternoon is difficult but darn it, I am willing to try. In all seriousness, I can't see this ever taking hold in corporate America but I have seen several studies that talk about the benefits in the workplace of just shutting down for even 30 minutes.
"6. Offer a well equipped gym and other facilities that encourage employees to move physically and stay fit. Provide incentives for employees to use the facilities, including during the work day as a source of renewal."
This is another great idea. Walker has worked out a discount with a local gym, which is great, unless of course you should happen to blow out your ACL working out over lunch which will require surgery and 6-9 monthys of rehab, at which point working out does not seem like such a good idea, not that I would know anything about that.

I didn't support Obama in anyway or form I'm just posting an article that I came across that's real funny because I was called an uncle tom and sellout by my black friends when I tried to warn them about what's in Obamacare. Now many of them have been given layoff notices or have been cutback to 30 hours a week. The subject line was taken from one of those tweets of an upset Obama voter not from my thoughts

Mexico Peso Falls as Fed Concern Outweighs Local Growth Outlook
Mexico's peso fell as mounting concern that the U.S. Federal Reserve will reduce stimulus outweighed speculation that lawmakers in the Latin American country will pass legislation to boost economic growth.
The peso slumped 0.7 percent, the worst performance among six major Latin American currencies, to 12.8498 per dollar at 10:23 a.m. in Mexico City, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The decline pared this month's advance to 0.6 percent.
The peso slumped along with most of its emerging-market peers before the Fed announces monetary policy later today. A report earlier showed the U.S. economy grew more than projected in the second quarter. Speculation that the U.S. central bank may trim its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases has fueled a slump in Mexican securities even as the Latin American country's government signals progress toward changes in the nation's energy and tax laws intended to boost growth.
Speculation that "the Fed will reduce stimulus is what's affecting the market more than the positive sentiment regarding Mexico passing reforms," Agustin Villarreal, fixed-income and foreign exchange director at Grupo Financiero Invex SA in Mexico City, said in a telephone interview. "At the end of the day it's a global environment more than a Mexico-specific situation."
The yield on Mexican government peso bonds maturing in 2024 jumped six basis points, or 0.06 percentage point, to 6.07 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The yield has risen 26 basis points this month, headed for a third straight monthly increase.
U.S. gross domestic product, the value of all goods and services produced, rose at a 1.7 percent annualized rate, after a 1.1 percent gain the prior quarter, Commerce Department figures showed today in Washington. The median forecast of 85 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a 1 percent advance for last quarter. Companies increased payrolls in July by the most this year a separate report from the ADP Research Institute.
The peso pared losses today after Senator Salvador Vega, an opposition leader on the Energy Committee, said in a telephone interview that his National Action Party will present an energy overhaul proposal today that would open the door for selling shares in state-owned Petroleos Mexicanos. President Enrique Pena Nieto has pledged to pass legislative changes to open the nation's state-owned oil monopoly to more private investment and boost tax collection.
Pena Nieto said in an interview in London last month that his administration will send bills to overhaul energy and tax policies in September and that the so-called Pact for Mexico alliance between the nation's three leading political parties will assure approval by Congress to end the government's monopoly on oil production before year-end.

Some ideas are accepted and pursued more readily than others. As an example, the concept of man flying was not taken seriously until modern times. From Da Vinci's conceptual illustrations to the Wright brothers' accomplishments, centuries elapsed. Significant technological advances have produced both the space shuttle, and the hang glider. It took longer to get Da Vinci's "hang glider" in the air than a rocket. Today's hang glider works because it has borrowed and modified advanced technology.
Scientific and technological advances in endodontics have allowed the use of simple devices in sophisticated ways. Today we can routinely use paper points to determine the length of a canal.1 This is possible because of modern instrumentation techniques and nickel-titanium files of greater taper.
|Figure 1. This radiograph shows a central incisor that has had an apicoectomy. There is a retrograde filling that has been placed into the root, but not the canal.
|Figure 2. The paper point used to determine the location of the cavosurface of the canal also reveals the angle of the surgically placed bevel and its orientation.
|Figure 3. The information gathered from the paper point can be used to customize the gutta-percha cone used for obturation.
|Figure 4. The sealer partially obscures the intimate seal developed during obturation. What is noteworthy is the apical control that was developed in this case. Intimate knowledge of this root canal system's anatomy was gained through interpretation of the paper point.
|Figure 5. A complex root canal system treated without working films. The paper point technique was used to determine working lengths.
While the paper point may seem like Da Vinci's hang glider when compared with digital radiography or an apex locater, it gives more accurate information about canal length and shape than any other technique available (Figures 1 through 4). The accuracy of paper point measurements also allows for the elimination of working films while improving the technical quality of the endodontics performed (Figure 5).
Achieving technical endodontic excellence is largely dependent upon knowing two variables: (1) at what length the cavosurface of the canal is, and (2) the minimum apical foramen diameter (MAFD) at that length. Knowing these variables allows the dentist to have excellent control of the root canal system. The length to the cavosurface of the canal can be determined to within 1/4 mm accuracy using the paper point technique, a technique that does not require measurement radiographs.
Radiographs and apex locators are used to estimate the working length of canals. When estimates of length and MAFD are made, the quality of endodontic procedures will inherently vary. Accurate knowledge of canal length and MAFD can be used to produce consistent high-quality results. This two-part article will attempt to illustrate an approach that can be used to improve the quality and consistency of endodontic procedures
Before discussing a more accurate way to ascertain the variables required for optimum control of endodontic procedures and outcomes without working films, some definitions are needed.
|Figure 6. The black line represents the plane of the cavosurface of the root canal.
|Figure 7. Another view of the plane of the cavosurface.
|Figure 8. Obturation materials need not be placed apical to the plane of the cavosurface. As can be seen in this representation the immune system has easy access to the area apical to the plane of the cavosurface.
Let the cavosurface of the canal be defined as a plane that bisects the root at a point comprised of the most coronal position of the apical foramen where the internal surface of the canal meets the external surface of the root. This point is now considered to be at the most apical portion of the canal, and no other points on the plane are more coronal to it (Figure 6). It is not important to know if this cavosurface plane bisects cementum or dentin or both. The importance is in knowing where the demarcation of internal canal, and external root, exists (Figures 7 and 8).
Endodontics is successful when an environment is created that will allow the immune system to function to repair injury. We only need to treat what is inside the canal. All points that are located apical to the cavosurface of the canal can be considered to be in contact with the immune system. All points coronal to the plane of the cavosurface are considered to be relatively inaccessible to the immune system, and should be treated with proper endodontic therapy.
Obturation materials only need to be placed inside the canal to its cavosurface margin. By knowing where the endpoint for treatment exists (the cavosurface), better control can be developed in instrumentation and obturation of the root canal system. Improved control goes hand in hand with improved quality in all areas of dentistry.
|Figure 9. In this idealized situation the minimum apical foramen diameter is between the arrows which is the diameter of the circle.
|Figure 10. In a more realistic example, the minimum apical foramen diameter is determined from the two closest points on the cavosurface plane of the canal along the path taken by the files used in instrumentation.
The minimal apical foramen diameter also needs to be defined. It is the smallest cross-sectional length of the apical foramen at the cavosurface of the canal along the path taken during instrumentation that can be determined with gauging files. In the rare instances where the cavosurface of the canal is at the anatomic and radiographic apex of the root, and the apical foramen is a perfect circle, the MAFD would be the diameter of the apical foramen (Figure 9). In most instances the MAFD will consist of the two closest points on a plane that represent the cavosurface of the canal. There will be many wider areas on this plane, such as an elliptical or irregularly shaped foramen (Figure 10).
How can these determinations of length and MAFD be made without radiographs? With digital radiography, taking a working film—whether a measurement, cone fit, or obturation check film—only takes seconds, and has never been easier. Why choose to abandon these images and the information they contain? How can it be said that better care could be delivered without them?
For me the motive to change the way canal measurements were obtained arose because the results that were achieved using the information obtained from radiographs, the electric apex locator, and tactile sensation were not as consistent as desired. Often the results were beautiful. Sometimes, even with relatively simple teeth like maxillary central incisors, the results were substandard, usually an unsightly overfill, indicating a lack of awareness of the specific anatomy and an inability to control treatment in a simple root canal system. The ability to consistently, reproducibly, and accurately transform the information from radiographs, the apex locator, and tactile sensation into technically excellent endodontics fell short too often, creating anxious moments while waiting to view the postoperative radiographs. Working diligently and only producing an inferior result, coupled with not understanding what precipitated the undesirable outcome, make for a very frustrating endodontic experience. An explanation for these inconsistent results was needed. Endodontic treatment needs to be performed with great consistency in order to ensure a high predictability of results—our patients are counting on this.
|Figure 11. Length determination from a radiograph can be extremely difficult and unreliable.
|Figure 12. A photograph of the radiographic specimen in Figure 11.
|Figure 13. A radiograph of the same specimen in Figure11 from a different angle.
|Figure 14. A photograph of the specimen in Figure 11 from a different angle.
Traditionally, radiographs have been used to determine the length of the canal. We know from many studies that this method is inaccurate.2 The difference between the radiographic apex (RA) and the cavosurface of the canal can be significant. Because of the inherent shortcomings with radiographic length determination (Figures 11 through 14) it has been suggested by some authors that working a certain distance short from the RA will result in a satisfactory working length.3-5 The distance to be subtracted from the RA is based on studies where the average distance of the apical foramen from the RA has been measured. Then an average length discrepancy with a standard deviation is determined.
The problem with this approximation technique is that the teeth we treat are not average, but very unique. A working length that is determined based on statistical research may fall within the standard deviation. However, the chances of getting an accurate canal length by using statistical averages and standard deviations are remote. One length does not fit most canals. The estimated length will always either be long or short of the true cavosurface of the root. At best this technique should be considered length approximation, certainly not length determination.
|Figure 15. Treating this root canal system short of its cavosurface could result in several mm's of untreated tissue.
In order to avoid over- instrumentation and overfilling, most of us were taught to work short of the radiographic apex. This philosophy does not address the entire root canal system (Figure 15). Treating short also contributes to canal ledging and blockages, leaving substrate in the canal for bacteria to cause later problems.
Many of us were taught to rely on radiographs and statistics for length "approximation." Many believe that radiographic measurements are the standard of care, or because of cognitive dissonance have chosen to overlook the shortcomings of this technique.
The standard of care is what a reasonable and prudent practitioner would do. School curricula or textbooks do not dictate the standard of care. The standard of care evolves as advances in the field occur. Endodontic treatment can routinely be performed without working radiographs and consistently produce results that meet, if not exceed, the standard of care.
A new level of accuracy in length determination over radiographs has been achieved with the electronic apex locator (EAL). The EAL is free of the problems that visual interpretation of two-dimensional radiographs present. With the EAL there is no chance for our eyes to misinterpret the information that the EAL presents. Unfortunately, the EAL is not 100% accurate, and may be perceived as difficult to use. Even though the EAL is not infallible, it is more accurate than radiographs.6
|Figure 16. The "Endo Q" for apex locator training.
For those of us who find it difficult to use an EAL there is a new product, the "Endo Q" (Acadental) (Figure 16), that will dramatically decrease the learning curve for mastering this device. I have found that when using the "endo Q" in the hands-on courses I teach in my office, the participants experience a dramatically accelerated learning curve.
When the EAL indicates that the apex has been reached, it means that the very tip of the file is protruding through the foramen. Repeatedly taking larger instruments (greater than a 15 or 20 K file, depending on the curvature of the canal and the hardness of the dentin) past this length will lead to transportation of the apical foramen, commonly known as zipping the apex. The EAL does not accurately reveal where the canal ends and the extra-radicular structures (the PDL, bone, granulation tissue, cyst) begin. It does not accurately reveal where to terminate treatment of the RCS.
With the EAL a similar problem that radiographs present recurs—to what distance from the EAL reading should we work? Again, studies have been done that give information in terms of average length discrepancies between the EAL reading and direct observation.7 An average distance with a standard deviation is determined, and adjustments to working length are made accordingly. Again, the problem is in using averages and applying them to unique situations. Most of the time the length selected will be incorrect, either too short or too long.
An example of a situation where using averages is inappropriate would be when a patient is treated with IV sedation, when titration of medications is required for safety and effect. The response to medications follows a bell curve. Individuals will either be hyper responders, hypo responders, or somewhere in between. Unfortunately, preoperatively it is not known how an individual will respond. Giving an average dose of an anxiolytic agent to a hyper responder can result in a dangerous situation. The same dose given to a hypo responder will be ineffective. Titration is imperative in this situation for maximum safety and effect.
In endodontics there also exists a bell curve with canal lengths. Use of radiographs or the EAL combined with measurement adjustments based on average length discrepancy studies inherently results in working lengths that are excessive or insufficient, but seldom just right. Unfortunately, with these measurement techniques we don't know which canals will be treated long, short, or just right until the final film is viewed.
Our patients expect us to treat their unique anatomy. We don't usually place crowns based on averages. We make a unique crown for each individually prepared tooth, and we must use the same approach in endodontic treatment.
What if there was a way to "titrate" working length for each individual canal or foramen? No more underfilling or overfilling unless desired. Such a method exists. It allows determination of the distance to the cavosurface of every unique canal in each root. This measurement can be performed to within tolerances of 0.25 mm, consistently, without radiographs. It allows us to "see" the cavosurface of the canal.
The beauty of this method is that once the distance to the cavosurface of the root is known, the MAFD at that length can be determined. Once length is determined (which means we have negotiated the canal to its terminus), the MAFD at that length can also be determined, then the two variables needed to successfully complete the endodontic equation are known. With this knowledge comes control of instrumentation and obturation that allows the doctor to determine where to terminate treatment. The results designed are the results produced. We can truly become masters of our domain.
This measurement technique is performed with paper points. In addition to extremely accurate and consistent length information, paper points can sometimes give three-dimensional information regarding the location and slope of the apical foramen.
This three-dimensional information can be extremely valuable in developing control over the most apical extent of the canal. There is no need to worry about overextension of gutta-percha. There is more concern that fitting the gutta-percha short of the ideal termination point will result in obturation that remains short of the ideal termination point. With good apical control the gutta- percha cone will not advance even under the pressure developed by vertical condensation forces.
When we are lacking length or minimal apical foramen diameter information we cannot attain the same degree of control. In these situations we need a little bit of luck to help us pull it off. Gifted clinicians can pull it off routinely, intuitively knowing and feeling the variables. But for those of us who might need to take a few practice swings before going on the golf course, or maybe even need a lesson now and then, it is nice to have all the information we could possibly need. Wouldn't you like to know the exact yardage for your golf shot, the exact slope and speed of the green? Tiger Woods has a feel for it. Most others would like all the help they can get.
The concept behind paper points being used to provide accurate length information comes from the idea that when the contents of the root canal system are removed the canal should be dry. The extraradicular (or more accurately extracanalular) environment is living and hydrated. There is the PDL, granulation tissue, pus, blood, bone, or some other hydrated tissue containing fluid that exists beyond the cavosurface of the canal.
|Figure 17. A paper point will stay dry in a canal if it is short of the cavosurface of the canal.
|Figure 18. When the paper point is overextended, capillary action may allow excessive fluid to collect on the point.
If a paper point is placed into a dried canal and removed short of the apical foramen, it should be retrieved dry (Figure 17). If a paper point is placed into a dried canal and taken past the cavosurface of the canal it will be retrieved with fluid (blood, pus, serous fluid, or mucus) on that portion of the point that extended through the cavosurface of the canal. Because of capillary action the wet portion will be extended some distance further along the point than the portion that was directly in contact with the fluid (Figure 18). The length of paper point affected by this capillary action is dependent on the viscosity of the fluid present beyond the canal and the absorbency of the paper point. We don't need to know this information in order to get accurate length information from paper points.
|Figure 19. The apical extent to which the paper point can be placed, and remain dry is recorded as the length to the cavosurface of the canal.
|Figure 20. As soon as the paper point is extended past the cavosurface of the canal it will be discolored.
The technique for paper point measurement can be simple. Into a dried, patent canal place a paper point. A trial paper point is placed 1/2 mm short of the EAL length. If the point comes out dry advance it until it picks up some fluid. Note the length of the point that is dry. Now, another point is taken just short of this length, removed and observed. For this example assume that the point comes out dry (Figure 19). Re-introduce and advance the point until the very tip of the point has the slightest bit of fluid on it (Figure 20). The point should not remain in contact long enough for any capillary action to have taken place. Record the maximum length that the point can be placed into the canal and remain dry as the length of the canal. This is the cavosurface of the canal
Now that an accurate canal length is known, the MAFD at this length can be determined. By taking K files to the paper point length without rotating them, but with apical pressure, a file that will not go long but will bind at or just short of paper point length will be found. This file represents the MAFD.
Of course there are some subtleties to the technique. In teaching this technique for the past few years I have also become aware of the common problems and misconceptions that doctors new to the technique have in common. In part 2 of this article I will address several of these issues and offer solutions.
It is my hope that this article will facilitate quality endodontic treatment by taking advantage of the developments that have taken place in the last decade. The paper point technique would not be a consistently reproducible technique without advances in instruments that have taken place, notably the introduction of greater taper files.

Health Website Greatist Raises $4.5M
Instart Logic Raises $45M Series D Round For Its Application Delivery Platform
Greatist, a website promising "real facts and doable steps for your happiest life," has raised $4.5 million in Series A funding.
I wrote about the startup in 2012, when I said it was focused on "non-sucky health content." In other words, it offered health and wellness advice targeted at millennial readers, presented with a distinctive editorial voice and based on real reporting/research.
Since then, founder and CEO Derek Flanzraich said the company has grown to 10 million unique monthly visitors, with 50 percent of that traffic coming from organic search and less than 25 percent from social networks. Greatist's revenue also grew last year, from "just about zero" to profitability.
Flanzraich said the team has "purposefully stayed capital efficient and bootstrappy" because he knew it would take a while to build "a brand-first business."
The funding was led by Floodgate, with participation from Strauss Zelnick, Andy Russell, John Gardner and David Pecker. Greatist has now raised a total of $8 million, with past investors including RiverPark Ventures, Vayner/RSE, Jon Miller, Ramit Sethi and Chris Hughes also participating in the Series A.Featured Image: Greatist

CANADA STOCKS-TSX turns negative, miners sole bright spot
TORONTO Oct 30 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index turned negative in morning trade on Wednesday, as strong gains from gold miners failed to offset broad weakness from banks, energy companies and industrial stocks.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was down 4.6 points, or 0.03 percent, at 13,435.98 by 10:30 a.m. (1430 GMT), after opening in positive territory.

Council Democrats target CIB for $15M
Even though the mayor says there's no money to hire and train new police and fire recruits next year, City-County Council Democrats say they've found a way to fund the recruit classes for up to 50 officers and 30 firefighters.
When they vote on the mayor's budget Monday, they're expected to vote in favor of charging the Capital Improvement Board a $15 million "payment in lieu of taxes" or PILOT.
The CIB is a municipal corporation charged with running the city's sports venues and convention center. It relies regularly on police and fire protection for sports and other events at its venues.
City-County Council Vice President Brian Mahern (D) said, "In the past, the CIB has come to the city for assistance and we've provided that. The shoe is on the other foot now. The city needs help providing essential services and we're going to the CIB. It's only fair they contribute something and pitch in."
The mayor strongly opposes the move. His chief of staff Ryan Vaughn said, "There's no money there and it's misleading to the public to suggest there is."
The city has turned to the CIB for help before, back in 2000 when Democrat Bart Peterson was mayor.
Vaughn said that was different as it was a mutual agreement between the city and CIB.
This time he accused the Democratic-controlled council of "being a fiscal bully and trying to steal money from an agency which has been criticized in the past for being fiscally irresponsible and is now being criticized for being fiscally responsible."
Others have joined the mayor in opposing the pilot. Indy Chamber President and CEO Scott Miller issued this statement:
Suggested Links
"The City-County Council's Municipal Corporations Committee's decision to raid the CIB budget by addressing a long term problem with a short term solution is irresponsible and creates a fiscal cliff that would be a detriment to long term stability, economic attractiveness and job growth in our city. We urge the Council to reject this measure and instead seek a consistent, long-term solution to this budget shortfall."
Mahern said he was undeterred. "We have to run the city and provide essential services. We're losing officers. Given where we're at this point it's our best suggestion."
Even the mayor opposes the PILOT, he has no power to veto it. The CIB is still considering whether to take legal action.

SFA featured in Southern Living
Check out the February issue of SOUTHERN LIVING, which includes a feature on the Southern Foodways Alliance. Jennifer Cole and Hunter Lewis profile nine SFA members, from Creole chef Leah Chase to foodways scholar Marcie Cohen Ferris. Each member contributed a recipe, ranging from the traditional (John Egerton's buttermilk biscuits) to the New-South-global (Bill Smith's pozole).
If you can't wait to get your hands on a copy of the magazine, or if you're already hungry for more, head to the Southern Living website. There, you can watch the SFA founders tell more of their—and our—story.

Muddy dog
So we have had tons and tons of rain/snow and the ground stay muddy in the back yard. Does anyone have any good tricks to make dog clean up easier for when it's time for him to come in?
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
Someone else just posted the same exact question! We don't have snow but have had tons of rain and I'm dealing with the same thing. I just rinse Zoe's paws with the hose and either dry her feet or put her in the crate for a bit depending on the amount of mud and wetness.

Baby wipes. I keep a container by the back door and it just takes a moment to get him cleaned up.

I just wipe my guys' paws off at the door with a towel. That's the only thing I've come up with so far.
We have a towel in the closet by the back door, and also a large floor mat as you walk in the door. I tell Ava "wipe your feet," and she has been trained to wipe her feet on the mat before she takes any further steps into the house.

Dazed and Confused - The Criterion Collection
Alright, alright, alright. It's Dazed and Confused and it's easily one of the funnier films of the 90s. Immediately after its release, it was an instant cult favorite and leaves me (and others alike) religiously quoting the film. This Criterion release has a ridiculous amount of extras, including a 50-minute documentary about the making of the film, commentary, trailers, deleted scenes and lots more.

it's an oxidizer
its by product is h2o
mixed with meth, the cooling properties plus extra fuel from meth could balance the extra o2
bad part is it's corrosive to iron... don't think that's an issue in the VW AWp though. Especially in low concentration.
Possibly a better alternative to nitromethane?
I'm thinking:
60% methanol
30% h2o
10% h2o2
40% methanol
50% h2o
10% h2o2
what do you think?
@Scott, I believe you may have been thinking about something similar

OR Counties Turn Down Tax Increase
GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) — State officials are looking for alternatives after voters in two Oregon timber counties turned down tax increases to fund law enforcement. The outcome puts Curry County closer to going broke and a potential state takeover. Josephine County is looking at further law enforcement cuts. Voters in a third timber county, Lane, approved a jail levy.

Top 10 things to do in Barbados
There can be few more evocative images than the juxtaposition of lush green gardens against resplendent ocean hues and if you're looking to sample the best of them then head to Barbados and you won't be disappointed.
This is a relatively small island, stretching for just over 20 miles in length, however, size isn't everything and with some superb locations pitted against white sand backdrops you'll discover endless ways to spend your time as the sun continues to shine.
Whatever you're into: sports, relaxation or nature, Barbados has got the lot and if you're looking for a few more temptations to whet your whistle then check out the top 10 things to do in Barbados that offers plenty of food for thought.
10. Andromeda Botanic Gardens
This beautiful six acre strong tropical paradise can be found in St. Joseph's Parish with some stunning views of the island's more wild and wooly east coast. Originally the gardens were kept privately however, they were opened to the public in the mid-fifties and now serve as a true example of Barbados's natural beauty with the likes of: palms, orchids, cacti and plants commonly used in medicine all on display within the garden's perimeters.
Note: If you're traveling with the kids then there are some great educational facilities as well as guided or self-guided tours.
9. Kensington Oval
Ah yes, cricket. Located just to the west of the island's capital city of Bridgetown, the Kensington Oval has been the stomping ground of many of Barbados's sporting heroes and a visit here will allow you under the skin of a game that is deep-rooted into the hearts and minds of the locals. Recently modernised to host international matches, including the 2007 World Cup Final, this is the home of West Indian cricket. Kensington Oval also boasts an iconic statue of the great Sir Gary Sobers.
8. Welchman Hall Gully
Calling all hikers – go get your boots on because right here is where you start walking! Welchman's is an exceptional environment that embodies the island's deep love and understanding of plant life, cultural heritage and natural history. The gully is intrinsically beautiful and fresh feeling managing to combine tropical wilderness with walking trails which makes for a truly magical experience and a must for amateur botanists.
Located: Central Barbados in the St. Thomas' Parish.
7. Harrison's Cave
Dripping limestone and the cool, refreshing air of an underground cave is exactly what the doctor ordered on a hot day in Barbados and if you're into stalactites and stalagmites then welcome to paradise. Located in the parish of St. Thomas, in central Barbados, Harrison's Cave is very easy to reach and if you're hoping to find out a little more about the early explorers then your knowledgeable tour guides will be happy to enlighten you as you venture deeper underground via an exciting tram ride.
6. Dive down to the SS Stavronikita
There are a fair few diving and snorkeling spots in Barbados however, once you've swum down to the depths of the SS Stavronikita you probably won't want to go anywhere else. Situated in some 120 feet of water, just off the west coast, this Greek freighter is over 360 feet long and is literally covered in coral and teeming with tropical fish. This is one of the island's most popular dive spots and perfect for underwater adventurers and art exhibitors (see Andreas Franke).
5. Surfing the Soup Bowl
The east coast of Barbados is fast-becoming a mecca for surfers and body-boarders who are 'in the know' thanks to the sumptuous Soup Bowl swells and the fact that nobody else really gives the east side the time of day. Yes, it's slightly more rugged but slightly less-beautiful? No way, and if you're looking for a break from the luxury hotels and villas of the Platinum Coast, then take a trip to the wild side for an altogether more natural trip.
Top tip: Stay in the town of Bathsheba for a totally unique and honest to goodness Bajan experience.
4. Golfing in paradise
If you're intent on either complementing or ruining your stay in Barbados then surely a round of golf is going to be just the answer. With an incredibly diverse blend of landscapes, ranging from limestone quarries and wooded ravines to manicured greens and white sand bunkers, thwacking a white ball into the wide blue yonder doesn't really get any better than this. If you're looking for exclusivity then check out Apes Hill, Royal Westmoreland and Sandy Lane which are all nothing short of exceptional.
3. Hunte's Gardens
This is one of the island's most verdant locations which is set amongst the central hills of St. Joseph and promises respite from the sun as well as some darn fine flower-dotted foot paths. One of the dreamiest places that you're ever likely to visit and a definite must for all lovers of nature and horticulture. Why not: combine a visit to the gardens with a trip to the Platinum Coast as they're under 30 minutes drive away.
2. Racing at Garrison Savannah
With a fantastic central location and providing a thoroughly worthwhile alternative to the beach, watching the horses at the Garrison Savannah is a great day out for all the family. The dress-code is casual and with a carnival atmosphere, comprising of: parades, picnics and local food vendors, you'll find a relaxing and entertaining experience where winning isn't everything although, of course, it doesn't do any harm.
1. Platinum Coast beaches
Named mainly due to the shimmering sand however, in recent years, more indicative of the rich and famous mega-rich who call it home, the Platinum Coast is Barbados's premier stretch of shoreline. Located to the west of the island, just to the north of Holetown, this is an exquisitely beautiful area and well-worth a visit even if you're only lingering to see if you can catch sight of a reclusive billionaire playboy or two.
Further reading: Full of glitz and glamour, Barbados's Platinum Coast is the ideal place to base yourself for the ultimate Caribbean beach retreat.

Thunderstorms are drenching Cape Canaveral, delaying but not stopping preparations for Friday's scheduled launch of the final space shuttle mission.
Update at 3:31 p.m. ET: Preparations for launching the Atlantis continue during breaks in the rain showers. At 2:38 p.m., NASA launch engineers began opening the silo that encloses the shuttle, 38 minutes later than scheduled.
Original post: Ferocious thunderstorms drenched Cape Canaveral today as final preparations take place for tomorrow's planned liftoff of the final shuttle flight.
The Kennedy Space Center issued a lightning warning, and lightning struck near the launch pad at 1 p.m., delaying the retraction of the rotating scaffolding that encases the shuttle Atlantis on the launch pad, NASA said. Preparations ran about 38 minutes behind.
More storms are likely Friday.
"Weather is not looking good for launch," shuttle weather officer Kathy Winters said. There is a 70% chance that weather -- particularly lightning -- will prohibit the scheduled launch, she said.
If the launch scrubs Friday, it could be rescheduled for 11:04 a.m. Saturday or 10:38 a.m. Sunday. If the weather fails to improve this weekend, NASA could try again July 15.
Except for the weather, preparations for the final launch have been free of major glitches.
"Out last couple of days out at the launch pad have gone extremely well," NASA test director Jeff Spaulding said.

New Software Turns Smartphones into High-Tech Keys
Posted on 09. Jan, 2013 by Bryan Ives in News
Researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology SIT in Darmstadt, Germany, have developed a new software called ShareKey that makes opening car and home doors using smartphone apps more versatile and secure.
ShareKey not only allows users to open locks, but also allows users to assign digital keys remotely and can limit which locks the shared keys can open.
"In essence, ShareKey offers two new functions: users can issue digital keys remotely and assign these keys certain user permissions. For instance, I can grant the building superintendent access to my apartment for a short period so that he can open the door for the gas meter to be read while I'm at work," said Alexandra Dmitrienko from the SIT.
