So I have a 2013 BUT and I'm starting the build on it in like a week when I finally get some time off of work. I have 10:1 CP Pistons to put in and I'm wondering if I will have to tune it when I do or if just running them will be alright? I am going to have it dyno when I eventually get everything done.

Panoramic View From West of 'Dingo Gap'This scene looking back at where Curiosity crossed a dune at "Dingo Gap" combines several exposures taken by the Navigation Camera (Navcam) high on the rover's mast. The panorama is centered toward the east and spans about 225 degrees, from north-northwest at the left to west-southwest at the right. For scale, the distance between Curiosity's parallel wheel tracks is about 9 feet (2.7 meters). The panorama is presented here as a cylindrical projection.
The component images were taken during the 539th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's work on Mars (Feb. 10, 2014) from a location reached by a drive the preceding sol. Curiosity crossed the dune at Dingo Gap, near the middle of the horizon of this scene, on Sol 535 (Feb. 6, 2014). The dune is about 3 feet (1 meter) tall.
The high-mounted cylinder on the rear part of the vehicle is the rover's UHF (ultrahigh frequency) antenna. The set of disks mounted below it is part of the calibration target for Curiosity's Chemistry and Camera (ChemCam) instrument. The ball-on-a-stick device in the foreground is the calibration target, including a sundial, for Curiosity's Mast Camera (Mastcam). To the right of the UHF antenna in this image are the radiator fins for Curiosity's power supply, a radioisotope thermoelectric generator.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the Mars Science Laboratory Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. JPL designed and built the project's Curiosity rover and the rover's Navcam.

A Braille Hoax and Some Rockabilly Cancer
Ed Park peered into the strange world of David Berman's drawings for last week's cover story. Park argued that the drawings collected in the newly released Portable February are cut from the same quirky cloth as Berman's poetry and music. One 'rawing that particularly caught the writer's attention: a billboard/projection stating, "Somehow I had offered to deliver bad news to a maniac."
"You can even imagine Berman's deadpan, dead-on singing voice delivering that non-punchline punchline on one of his albums with his band, the Silver Jews," Park says.
Ah yes. The now-defunct Joos. That monotonic punchline machine that is Berman's singing voice, delivering zingers over some jangly jangles. It's amazing how much of my life has been spent humming the following:
In 1984 I was hospitalized for approaching perfection.
-"Random Rules"
On the last day of your life don't forget to die.
-"Advice to the Graduate"
We're trapped inside this song where the nights are so long!
-"New Orleans"
Sentimental as a cat's grave. Fuckin' body broke my eyes.
-"I'm Gonna Love the Hell Out of You"
All houses dream in blueprints.
-"Pretty Eyes"
When the sun sets on the ghetto all the broken stuff gets cold.
-"Smith and Jones"
It is autumn and my camouflage is dying.
-"The Wild Kindness"
The sky is low and gray like a Japanese table
-"Time Will Break the World"
What about the stuff we quote believe?
-"San Francisco B.C."
What looks like sleep is really hot pursuit.
-"My Pillow is the Threshold"
Admittedly, I wake up nearly every mornign with Public Enemy's "911 is a Joke" rattling around in my brain, so I may be a tuneless obsessive. But sometimes I feel like these particular tunes have a code embedded in them I'm stupidly susceptible to. I mean, they're so goofy, but I can't help but love them!
Comments (4)
Apparently an Olson fan, too: "The Moon Is the Number 18" (what the hell does that mean anyway?).
I think of the National: "You've been humming in a daze forever / Praying for Pavement to get back together."
Oh, my twenties. Where are they!
I assume you know Dan Bejar's work? & John Darnielle's (who has been kind enough, I cannot resist pointing out, to praise my poems)?
Also, the New Pornographers quote Wittgenstein, but Berman alludes to both Heidegger & Kant in a song that, nevertheless, doesn't suck, which contains one of my favorite of his verses:
Do you believe in MGM endings?
Everybody's coming back to Christmas for Texas.
Folks who watch their mother killing animals know
Their home is surrounded by places to go.
I, too, love Silver Jews.
My favorite moment from their songs occurs at the end of the first song on Starlite Walker, the cheekily titled "Introduction II." Addressed to "my friends" ("Hello, my friends. Hello, my friends. Come in, have a seat…."), the song (which in fact is one minute long) concludes:
"My friends…
don't you know that I never
want this minute to end…?
[gorgeous, devastating pause]
"…and then it ends…"
Great stuff. But, please, don't even get me started on Guided by Voices…

Seminar, May 20: "Nano and Environment: Where to look for the nano-needle in the environmental haystack?"
Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering Special Seminar Wednesday, May 20th at noon
234 Ames Hall
Nano and Environment: Where to look for the nano-needle in the environmental haystack?
Bernd Nowack
Materials, Products and the Environment Group Empa – Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research St. Gallen, Switzerland
The behavior and the effects of nanomaterials in the environment are currently under heavy investigation and are discussed both in the scientific world as well as in the public. An elementary step towards a quantitative assessment of the risks of new compounds to the environment is to calculate their predicted environmental concentrations (PEC). We used a life-cycle perspective to model the quantities of engineered nanoparticles released into the environment.
The quantification was based on a substance flow analysis of nanomaterials from products to air, soil, water and sediments. The method was applied to the engineered nanoparticles titanium dioxide, silver, carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, and ZnO. The PEC-values obtained with this modeling were then compared to the predicted no effect concentrations (PNEC) derived from the ecotoxicological literature to estimate a possible risk. The expected concentrations of the nanomaterials in the different environmental compartments vary widely, caused by the different life cycles of the nanomaterial-containing products. The results of this study make it possible for the first time to carry out a quantitative risk assessment of nanomaterials in the environment and suggest further detailed studies of nano-Ag, nano-ZnO and nano-TiO2. The results also provide information in which environmental compartments we should first look for nanomaterials and what concentrations we can expect.

- Project Manager – Recruitment Agency LondonThe final presentation of results was incredibly well put together, delivered with clarity, and gave us more insight than we had hoped for.
- Andy Bartram, Sales Manager – Electrical Oil Services LtdMackman are a young, fresh, extremely professional and knowledgeable team and offer a wonderfully friendly and personable service.
- Euan Meldrum, Marketing Manager – Cobb Europe LtdThe team at Mackman led us on a very professional focused path, using a campaign brief and personas to make us think about the types of people we were targeting.
- Lynne McKay, Communications Manager – Essex ProbationWe are pleased with the website: the designers followed our brief and came up with excellent suggestions. The final result was received with praise from other probation trusts.
- Stephen Belcher – Stephen Belcher PhotographerA good understanding of my requirements translated in to a good, simple, clean design. Comfortable to work with and excellent knowledge of email marketing campaigns.
- Roy Murphy, Director – Keys Fine Art AuctioneersOverall our experience working with the Mackman Group has been very positive in all regards. We were kept well informed at all stages of the process; all our many queries were met with courtesy and understanding and in terms we could easily comprehend.
- Jack Dalziel, Managing Director – SRLMackman were positive and proactive in overcoming challenges faced during the project, using their marketing and technical expertise to add additional features including a PDF download facility.
- Dan Barcroft, Communications and External Relations – University of EssexWorking with Mackman Group has been a refreshing and engaging experience. Their client centred approach enabled them to mould around our needs, work to very short time scales and their results have exceeded our expectations. We are extremely pleased with all aspects of our working relationship with Mackman and hope to be able to work with them on future projects.
- Ruth Laws, Business Development Manager – The Sticker FactoryTheir technical knowledge and ability is second to none, and they have created a lot of fantastic bespoke elements specifically for our site. No matter what we throw at them, they always come back with a solution!
- Graeme Moody – Gisela GrahamWe would have no hesitation in recommending Mackman Group as a company to develop a website with. The web development team adopt a very reasonable and pragmatic approach to requests for enhancements and changes. This has helped us evolve the website to complement the evolving needs of the business.
- Mr G P Schooling – Sworders Fine Art AuctioneersHaving spoken with a number of potential providers regarding our fine art auction website, of which Mackman was one, it became clear that they offered a level of service we were unable to find elsewhere. We were delighted with the project, which was delivered on budget and exceeded our expectations.
- Allison Burke – SomervilleMy experience with Mackman Group has been great since day 1. Their approach is very inclusive; you are firmly part of the team while at the same time feeling that you are in the hands of people who really know and care what they are doing.
Our Approach
Our approach is to closely collaborate with you the client, recognising that you are experts within your field, seeking a marketing partner to bridge knowledge or resource gaps. Working together in this manner ensures that the very best results are achieved. With us, it's all about the long term relationship. At the heart of our business is the belief that by working together, we'll be able to grow together.
Marketing is everything that an organisation does to facilitate an exchange between company and customer. Our approach to marketing encompasses a number of areas; we think of marketing as a pie, inside that pie you have slices of advertising, market research, media planning, public relations, product pricing, distribution, customer support, sales strategy, and community involvement. All of these tactical elements must not only work independently but they also must work together towards the bigger strategic goal.
The Mackman approach is based upon the following beliefs:
- Organisational leaders need to make decisions that are informed
- The most successful marketing strategies are those "owned" by the organisation
- The client is an expert in their own field but requires a collaborator to bridge knowledge and/or resource gaps
- Design must be led by function

I finally got around to making my new version of the Chocolate Truffle Tart.. 'bout time.. but I clearly stated in the original post that there were no hard-fast rules to follow only a suggestion that everyone post their versions in May so it looks like I'm ok.
So.. here's what I did..
First off, I definitely did some experimenting here – some of which paid off and others, well, not so much. I was going for an exotic flavor angle so I used coconut milk instead of the half and half. In other coconut recipes, I like reducing the milk down to really concentrate and intensify the flavor. I did that here too but, you know what, with all that bittersweet chocolate in the filling, I couldn't taste even a hint of coconut milk. I even tried adding some extract – nothing. Not a single drop of coconut flavor came through. Bottom line: if you want to swap out coconut milk for the half & half for whatever reason, go ahead but don't expect it to add a layer of flavor.
Next, I folded in 3/4 cup lightly salted, coarsely chopped peanuts to the chocolate before scrapping this lusciousness into the baked crumb crust. This worked and worked hard. If you are a cashew person, they would be great too as would toasted macadamias just make sure they have a little salt on 'em so they balance with the sweet filling.
Topping? Now here's where I got that hit of coconut that I was craving. Instead of using the vanilla extract, I added 1 teaspoon of coconut extract and then topped this baby with a sprinkle of toasted coconut.. oh yeah..
Check out the original post and print the recipe
Look for a #baketogether round up in June!
Here's hoping you end every day sweetly,

When the thought of saying the nembutsu erupts from deep within, having entrusted ourselves to the inconceivable power of Amida's vow which saves us, enabling us to be born in the Pure Land, we receive at that very moment the ultimate benefit of being grasped never to be abandoned.
Amida's Primal Vow does not discriminate between the young and old, good and evil - true entrusting alone is essential. The reason is that the Vow is directed to the person burdened with the weight of karmic evil and burning with the flames of blind passion.
Thus, in entrusting ourselves to the Primal Vow, no other form of good is necessary, for there is no good that surpasses the nembutsu. And evil need not be feared, for there is no evil which can obstruct the working of Amida's Primal Vow.

Sorry for not updating in so long guys. Once again I have been busy busy busy in my mission to overthrow the human race so that they worship us. Wait, they already do that! Suckers!
On a lighter note, I know Raimi and I have had our differences but he is a little under the weather right now so please keep him in your prayers and thoughts. Thanks!
Kittens...i gotta say a big SOZZA 4 not bein round sistas!!But i know you guyz have been spreading the claw right?Woo hoo!
Guyz i gotta admit the flu held me back man...didn't do nothin bad 4 bout a week.BUT i did recover and over the last 2 months boy have i made up for it!!!
1. I sure have dug my claws into that new leather chair!I pretend i dont realise what i've done but...man i think theyz bout to get real angry...better do it again!
3. K this is like THE best thing since chicken and duck in gravy-ya'll ready?Right,we have a fireplace in the living room.Next to it is bucket of coal right?Well I'm only very small yeah?Coal buckets waaaaaaay bigger!But i managed to get up there and grab a piece of coal in my paws!(Wait hold up-first i should mention that my mum had just hoovered k?) Then mum screamed for my other mum and told her what i'd done!There was a big black mark along the cream carpet.So i looked up all innocently like"Me?".And my mum said to my other mum"Soddie's too small to do that!" And my mum said "Look at ehr paws!" Uh-oh.....i legged it to the kitchen knowing this was it!My mum followed me and gasped man!Boy,was she shocked.I forgot my two front paws were white and the coal had inprinted on them!Luckily though other mum was too shocked to do anything about it so...phew!But guys...nearly!Remember this: If you can't get away with it.Make sure you have a hiding place until the limitation runs up and you can come back!
4.I now chase Gay Boy into his room to get him!OMG!!Funniest thing!He fell off a window man!!Boy i wish i was there to see it!I just heard about it...*sighs* But i told him i saw!!Muhahaha!!
Well that's all my news!!I just hope you guys are all learning from my ways!But guys remember it is important to be nice too...make sure after you've done something naughty to cuddle up to your parent or bring a nice big bird or mouse in.Nothing says sorry like a decapitated vole!!
Love you muchachas!!
To all kittens:Let the lesson begin.
Hehe ooh you shouldv'e seen what i did to the couch today. I was pretending to absently roll in the middle of the floor with my paws in the air while they cooed over me.So i rolled a little towards the couch...then a little more...just a little more...CLAW!!Muhahaha!
Oh it was great.
After dinner i stole a tiny peice of steak off a plate.I didn't eat it on the kitchen tiles because i know it would stain.So instead i carried it into the living room and slurped in it on the new cream carpet...hehe loooovely!
Anywaaaaaay its been nice kittens!Make sure to stay tuned my little minions!
Here endth the lesson.

CONCORD, N.H. — The four Concord police officers involved in an accidental shooting inside the Granite State Credit Union on May 1 were conducting a training exercise, a law enforcement source said last night.
The officers had unloaded their weapons before they trained, according to the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. After they finished training, they reloaded their guns. As the officers were leaving the credit union, one of them asked a question about a particular police maneuver, the source said.

Yes, you want to nail the interview. Otherwise you wouldn't be wearing that smart tie.
However, career experts say it's critical you don't go into an interview with rose-colored glasses and ignore red flags that should give you pause about accepting the job.
"If you spend all of your time trying to ace the interview process, you might miss some foreboding signs of what's to come," notes Liz Elfman at The Daily Muse.
During your next interview, in between showcasing your impeccable soft skills and actively listening, make sure you take time to assess your interviewer. Elfman points out that he or she can unwittingly help you decide whether you want the job.
One way: the interviewer expresses disbelief that you want the job.
"Pay attention to any comments like, 'You sure you want this job?' or 'You sure you can handle difficult clients?'" Elfman writes. "If your interviewers seem surprised that you actually want the job, it might be signs of things to come."
Another warning sign: You question an interviewer's competence.
"Particularly if your interviewer is the person you'll be reporting to every day, make sure that he or she is someone you can respect and learn from," Elfman notes. "If he or she appears flaky, doesn't know how to answer a lot of your questions, or appears disorganized or unintuitive, don't brush it aside. You probably don't want to work with this type of manager on a regular basis."

Diana tribute ... the Queen. Photo: Reuters
The Queen recalled the royal family's often difficult relationship with Princess Diana, but paid tribute to "a remarkable human being" as she opened a fountain in London's Hyde Park to commemorate her.
Diana, killed in a car accident in Paris almost seven years ago, had an "extraordinary effect" on those around her, the Queen told the crowd assembled for the dedication of the fountain last night, Sydney time.
Prince Charles was present, as were Diana's sons, princes William and Harry.
Acknowledging the rifts of the past, the Queen said: "Of course there were difficult times but memories mellow with the passing of the years."
But the emphasis was on Diana's wider appeal and charity work. "Her drive to empathise with those in difficulty, hardship or distress, her willingness to embrace a new cause, her shrewd ability to size up all those she met, allowed her not only to touch people's lives, but to change them," the Queen said. "This is her wider legacy."
She added that "for some exceptional people" there was a need for permanent and public recognition. A statue would not have been the best choice, because "to present a likeness seemed at best unnecessary for someone whose image continues to exert such fascination the world over".
The Princess Diana Memorial Fountain comprises two rings of flowing water intended to reflect Diana's life.
The ceremony was the first time the Windsors and Diana's family, the Spencers, had been together since her funeral in September 1997, where Diana's brother, Earl Spencer, criticised the royal family. He was present yesterday and, in a keenly awaited encounter, approached Prince Charles afterwards for a brief, formal conversation.

By Brian Rice KNOXVILLE, Tenn.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.- Brian Pensky looked up at hundreds of fans in the stands at Regal Soccer Stadium Saturday evening and told them the night was all about them.
Indeed, it was. Tennessee Soccer welcomed its fans to the third-annual meet-and-greet Saturday night, an event that has become a staple in Pensky's three years at UT. It was his brainchild as a way to introduce himself to the fans prior to his initial season, and its success has helped build excitement each season.
"Coach Pensky started this when he came and we're really excited to gives us a chance to introduce our team" Assistant Marketing Director Mary Hughes said. "Soccer is the first sport to start, so it gives everyone the opportunity to get in here and get excited about the season and the athletics year as a whole."
Fans had the opportunity to tour Regal Soccer Stadium prior to Pensky's speech, including a stop in the team video room, where features on the student-athletes, including senior Allie Sirna, played on the screen. Sirna said the event is one of the things she looks most forward to each season and helps galvanize the team's support heading into her final year.
"It's very important to get out and talk to our fan base," Sirna said prior to an hour-long autograph and photo session with fans. "We love everyone that comes out to our games. This gives them a chance to meet us and that makes the experience in the stands more real, more personal for them and for us."
Pensky was excited to see the even grow in size yet again ahead of his third year as Tennessee coach, but was perhaps most excited that the event was finally dry.
"It's always a great night," Pensky said. "The best thing is, the sun is out. It's our first rain-free night and attendance is up. That's what this is all about, our you fans getting to spend time with our players and our players reaching out to the young fans."
Fans also took in the team's annual Orange and White intrasquad scrimmage following the autograph session. Young fans had the chance to observe the team's warmup from field level at the stadium.
The fans packing the stands for a first look at the team also struck Sirna as meaningful.
"It means they have faith in us," she said "They want to watch us grow, and that's always exciting to see."
Head coach Brian Pensky and his Tennessee Soccer staff answered a challenge from fellow coaches, one that the players were all too happy to help with.
Pensky and his assistants were doused with large tubs of ice water by players as part of the Cold Water Challenge, a nationwide fundraiser for ALS research. Coaches all over the country in a variety of sports have taken the challenge, which involves being doused with ice water on video and challenging fellow friends and coaches to do the same, while also making a donation to research to treat ALS.

Men found transporting large amount of drugs,
Man turns self in for indecencies, and
Construction stopped for holiday travel
On Thursday, Asheville Police Officer R.S. Muse and his K-9 Peppy were working on Interstate 40 near exit 50 conducting traffic enforcement when a truck displaying Texas license plates was observed speeding and maneuvering erratically. Muse made a traffic stop and detected possible deception in the occupant's initial statements. Further investigation through the use of K-9 Peppy resulted in information which led Muse to believe some type of illegal drugs were concealed on or in the truck. Other officers were summoned to assist.
A toolbox with a false bottom was found in the bed of the truck. In the box, 47 pounds 15 ounces of marijuana tightly sealed in plastic wrap were found.� ���
Osualdo Lopez Blanco, of Irving, Texas; Joel Del Castillo Grande, Dallas, Texas; and Gilberto Hernandez, of Dallas, Texas, were charged as a result of the bust. Police seized 47 pounds, 15.5 ounces of marijuana and a 1999 Ford F150.
All three were charged with trafficking marijuana by transport and trafficking marijuana by possession. They are being held in the Buncombe County Detention Center on a $150,000 secured bond. The investigation is continuing.
Man turns self in for indecencies
A Hendersonville man turned himself into the Transylvania County Sheriff's Department on Monday and was charged with multiple counts of indecent liberties.
Robert James Taylor, 34, of Hendersonville is charged with 11 counts of indecent liberties with two minor girls, 9 and 14 at the time of the incidents. Detective Gale Mackey said Friday that Taylor turned himself in Monday and is being held in the Transylvania County Jail under a $100,000 secured bond.
The charges against Taylor stem from interviews with the two victims and the victims' mother.
Mackey confirmed Taylor lived in Transylvania County at the time the incidents occurred and later moved to Hendersonville. Taylor is scheduled to appear in court for a probable cause hearing on Jan 4.
Construction stopped for holiday travel
The N.C. Department of Transportation will suspend most road construction activities that could affect travel over the holidays to help ease traffic delays and improve driving conditions.
Major construction projects along interstate and U.S. routes across the state will be suspended beginning at 4 p.m. Friday through 9 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 2.
NCDOT reminds motorists that even though workers may not be present in the majority of work zones, they may still encounter narrowed lanes and traffic shifts. The penalty for speeding through a marked work zone is $250.
Motorists should also remember to move over when passing stopped emergency vehicles or if involved in a minor accident. Under the Move Over law, motorists are required to change lanes or slow down when passing stopped law enforcement, emergency vehicles, wreckers and NCDOT's Incident Management Assistance Patrol Vehicles with flashing lights.

Demi Lovato, 'Heart Attack': Demi goes from dark to light in 'Heart Attack,' getting her rock star on in leather during live performance shots, and getting more artsy as she paints her hands black while belting the single. [WATCH HERE]
Ed Sheeran, 'Give Me Love': Ed is hardly in his 'Give Me Love' video, and instead casted a beautiful blond leading lady to portray a Cupid-esque character. She assists people on their quest to find love… even though she gets lonely in the process. [WATCH HERE]
Justin Timberlake, 'Mirrors': When JT he isn't soul searching in his room full of mirrors, we follow the path of a couple all the way from their first days together up until they're elderly — it's appropriate material considering the crooner actually dedicated the clip to his grandparents. [WATCH HERE]
Nicki Minaj, 'Va Va Voom': The Harajuku Barbie is living in her own fantasy world in 'Va Va Voom,' portraying a variety of fantastic princesses. Her costumes are absolutely killer, and the majestic settings and subtle plot line add to its wow factor. [WATCH HERE]

Psy, 'Gangnam Style': There's a reason 'Gangnam Style' is one of the most-watched videos ever. The viral K-pop sensation known as Psy goes absolutely H.A.M. in this kooky, colorful and crazy entertaining clip, dancing his booty off and engaging in a bunch of ridiculous scenarios. [WATCH HERE]
Rihanna, 'Diamonds': The Bajan beauty gets deep in her 'Diamonds' clip, and even though her relationship with Chris Brown might be kaput, the raw emotion she displays in the water-soaked, smokey and ultra moody clip about an undying love really shines "bright like a diamond." [WATCH HERE]
Taylor Swift, 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together': The 'Red' hit maker had one of the biggest hits of her career with 'WANEGBT,' so she naturally needed an amazing clip to match. The super fun video is one-shot, and Taylor had to run around changing costumes in the blink of an eye to make it work. [WATCH HERE]
Will.i.am, 'Scream & Shout' Feat. Britney Spears: Will and Brit are true superstars, so they don't need a bunch of crazy special effects to wow their audience. The stark backgrounds in 'Scream & Shout' are highlighted by continuous shots of both singers, and Brit looks so fierce in her duds, we can hardly stand it. [WATCH HERE]

- Allstate Insurance Company31.Mar 2017
- Employee
Overall Compensation for your work
Outrageously good benefits - after 8 years I get 35 PTO days per year, health, dental, vision, disability, life and other insurance, 401k (they match 5%) AND a pension, legal, and employee discounts. VERY unusual to find in non-union areas.
Work-Life Balance
My only complaint centers around having to work EVERY Saturday, unless you can somehow manage to get PTO/vacation time. With our office in the University area, there's no reason Allstate can't take advantage of the students living near by or others who are seeking part-time work if they want to continue a 24/7 call center operation AND offer their full-time employees a better and much needed work-life balance.

Blasing defines postmodern poetry as a break with modernism's valorisation of technique and its implicit collusion with technological progress. She shows how four major postwar poets - Frank O'Hara, Elizabeth Bishop, John Ashbery, and James Merrill - cannot be read as politically conservative because formally traditional or as culturally oppositional because formally experimental. All these poets acknowledge that no one form is more natural than another, and no given form grants them a superior position for judging cultural and political arrangements. Their work plays an important cultural role precisely by revealing how meanings and values do not inhere in forms but are always, irreducibly, rhetorical.--Publisher's description.

Corneal optics after reading, microscopy and computer work
Collins, Michael J., Buehren, Tobias F., Bece, Andrej, & Voetz, Stephanie C. (2006) Corneal optics after reading, microscopy and computer work. Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica, 84(2), pp. 216-224.
Purpose: To compare lid-induced changes in corneal optics following reading, microscopy and computer work.
Methods: Nine subjects with normal ocular health were recruited for the study. Five subjects were myopic, two were emmetropic, one was astigmatic and one was hyperopic. Corneal topography was measured before and after 60 mins of reading a novel, performing a blood cell counting task on a microscope and Internet searching. Corneal topography data were used to derive the corneal wavefront Zernike coefficients up to the fourth order. A meridian analysis of instantaneous corneal power along the upper 90-degree semi-meridian was performed to examine local changes caused by eyelid pressure. Digital photography was used to capture body posture and eyelid position during the tasks.
Results: Each of the three tasks showed systematically different effects on both the characteristics and location of corneal topography changes. Reading and microscopy generally exhibited larger and more centrally located changes compared with the computer task. Differences in wavefront aberration characteristics between the three tasks were apparent in both lower and higher order aberrations. The location of corneal distortions differed significantly between microscopy and computer work, with microscopy causing distortions to occur closer to the videokeratoscope measurement axis compared with computer work (p = 0.015).
Conclusions: Reading, microscopy and computer work have different effects on corneal aberrations. The results are in agreement with the hypothesis that lidinduced corneal aberrations may play a role in myopia development.

Here's Nagourney on Wednesday:
Nagourney sidled up to the suggestion that Brewer's allegedly "incendiary remarks" about drug violent spreading from Mexico to the United States had something to do with threats to Giffords.But no. "Today is not a day for politics or policy," Ms. Brewer said. For a fleet eight minutes, Ms. Brewer, looking sober and saddened, paid tribute to those who were killed and injured in a mass shooting on Saturday - and also offered something of a defense of a state whose reputation has been under a cloud.
"I want to speak to you about the Arizona I know, the place we saw again even on such an awful Saturday," she said. "It is a place of service, a place of heroes, a place with a bruised, battered heart that I know will get past this hideous moment."
Her remarks, a downstate reprise of the official State of the State address she gave to lawmakers in Phoenix on Monday, illustrate the challenges Ms. Brewer faces. She is eagerly trying to defend a state whose reputation has been battered in recent years, particularly since the massacre here on Saturday.
But fairly or not, Arizona's image has been forged in part because of Ms. Brewer herself, who has been identified with the tough law aimed at illegal immigrants, budget cuts that include denying aid to people who need life-saving transplants and laws permitting people to take concealed guns into bars and banning the teaching of ethnic studies in public schools.
Even some of Ms. Brewer's associates said they were hopeful that the governor and her allies in the Legislature would move away from initiatives that they said could further damage the state's image, in particular allowing guns in schools.
More of an obstacle might be some of the incendiary remarks she has made as governor, such as claiming, without foundation, that headless bodies had been found in the desert. She made that statement in signing the bill that gave the police wide authority to demand proof of citizenship from people suspected of being illegal immigrants.
"She really did get caught up in a lot of this rhetoric that we are now concerned about as it relates to Gabby," said Bruce Merrill, a professor emeritus at Arizona State University.

Publication Acceptance Date: 3/28/2001
Publication Date: 6/1/2001
Citation: JAMES, D.G., COSSE, A.A., WRIGHT, L., PEREZ, J. PHEROMONE-TRAPPING OF SYNANTHEDON TIPULIFORMIS (LEPIDOPTERA: SESIIDAE) IN WASHINGTON RED CURRANTS. ENVIRONMENTAL ENTOMOLOGY. 2001. v. 30(4). p. 663-666. Interpretive Summary: The currant borer moth, Synanthedon tipuliformis, is a significant pest of red currants in Washington. One to four applications of a broad-spectrum insecticide are applied during the adult flight period. However, control is often poor due to the short-term effect of the spray and imprecise knowledge on moth emergence and abundance. The sexes of this moth communicate with each other through the release of a female-specific blend of natural compounds (sex pheromone). This chemical communication facilitates mating. The present study laid the groundwork for the development of a novel insect control strategy called mating disruption: an improved, non-insecticidal way of managing this pest in Washington red currants. Results of the study yielded new key information about the sex pheromone chemistry and the bioactivity of a synthetic version of the pheromone applied in the field. This knowledge is expected to facilitate large-scale use of mating disruption as an environmentally friendly method to control the currant borer moth.
Technical Abstract: Collections of volatiles, ovipositor extracts and electoantennography showed the sex pheromone of female currant borer moths, Synanthedon tipuliformis Cl., from Washington to be a two component (100:3) blend of (E,Z)-2,13-octadecadienyl acetate (E,Z-2,13-18OAc) and (E,Z)-3,13-octadecadienyl acetate (E,Z-3,13-18: OAc. Pheromone-baited sticky traps captured male S. tipuliformis at one abandoned and two commercial red currant sites in south central Washington from May 19 to August 16, 2000. Peak catches occurred during late May and June with up to 200-300 moths per trap/week. Lowest numbers (overall mean: 4.8 plus/minus 0.9 moths/trap/visit) were recorded at the single insecticide-treated site and largest numbers (39.6 plus/minus 5.5 moths/trap/visit) ocurred at the other, untreated, commercial site.

Will protein help my droopy curls?
As my hair grows out, my curls are starting to droop - especially after the first day. I thought it might be because of the stress of keeping my hair in a ponytail or braid pretty much all day, every day.
I've used conditioners with protein in the past, but they left my hair crunchy and I've avoided them since. I use oils to keep my hair soft (especially the ends), if that matters.
What do you think? Should I give protein another try since I'm using oils now?
At waist length, I'd first point to the weight of your hair pulling some of the curl out, as opposed to needing protein. If it's not already, layering it would probably help your curls bounce up a bit.
With your coarse hair and bad reaction to proteins in the past, I'd be leery of using them, especially if your hair isn't overconditioned. If you do decide to try it, I've heard coarse haired curlies have the best luck with very occasional doses of keratin proteins or silk proteins. Start light and go heavier if you need to, or repeat the light dose for additional protein if the first dose goes well. Good luck. :)
i just posted somewhere about PTs also. My hair was also drooping so I did a PT. it improved my wave pattern, but now I have very frizzy hair, and it's the whole shaft not just the canopy. So I'm thinking the PT overdried my hair, it's stringy but not crunchy at all. But I noticed on my hair that coconut oil pulled my waves out. So u might consider that if it's pretty new to your routine.

Not an overly scholarly work, due to a lack of foot or endnotes, though there is a Further Reading section broken down by chapters, Robert Knapp's Invisible Romans is still a useful compilation of primary and secondary sources covering the non-elite of the Roman Empire til the time of Constantine. The book was released months before in the UK, so here's one review and another one.

Whales & Fisheries
The desire by some countries to lift the International Whaling Commission's (IWC) moratorium on commercial whaling and cull, i.e. kill, more whales comes at a time of widespread decline in commercially important fish stocks, and corresponding declines in commercial fisheries.

I am supplying new service to my stove/oven. The current wiring (8 gague) comes into a junction box below the stove. There it splits off to go to the oven (8 gague run) and the stove (10 gague run).
I am only replacing up to the junction box. The wires from the junction box to the stove and oven will stay the same. My new supply run will be 8 gague
In the junction box each wire is connected by a connector that looks like a nut/bolt with a slot in it. It is then wrapped in electrical tape. This was done about 50 years ago. Is there a more 'modern' method of connecting wires of this size (2 8 gague and 1 10 gague).

Detailed Accident Report
Submitted By: BTNFAC
Place: Darby Canyon, Fossil Mountain
State: WY
Country: USA
Fatalities: 1
Summary: 1 skier caught, buried, and killed
For images, please visit:
On Saturday two backcountry travelers in Darby Canyon on the west side of the Teton Range triggered a hard slab avalanche in the starting zone of a well defined avalanche path (Figure 19.2).
Figure 19.2 Photograph of the slide path in Darby Canyon where a backcountry skier died in an avalanche on March 10th
Two brothers were ascending when the slab they were upon failed and caught them both. One was on a splitboard and above the other. He was carried approximately 200 vertical feet and was not injured. The other brother, who was on telemark skis and below his sibling on the same slope, was carried a long distance and buried under several feet of avalanche debris near the toe of the slide.
The area of the avalanche starting zone where failure of this slab occurred was reported by Don Sharaf, who investigated this incident, to face northwest and have a steepness of 36 to 39 degrees. The slab was hard and underlain by faceted snow. In the area where the avalanche was triggered this slab was shallow (8 to 12 inches deep). The thickest section of the crown of this slab was just over three feet deep. Rock bands and boulders outcrop from a shallow snowpack in this area of the starting zone (Figure 19.3).
Figure 19.3 Starting zone of the avalanche that killed a backcountry skier on March 10th
The victim was carried approximately 1700 vertical feet. He had an avalanche beacon and was located and uncovered by his brother who then performed CPR until rescuers arrived. The cause of death was reported to have been trauma and suffocation.
There were several inches of new snow on the morning of the 10th. On Saturday morning skies were cloudy with light snow. The skies cleared as the day progressed. At the Raymer Plot at the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort the air temperature reached 29 degrees at 2 PM. This avalanche is believed to have occurred at about 5 PM.

Avalanche Fatality in Darby Canyon
I am sad to report that I just got home from a SAR call-out to an avalanche incident in Darby Canyon, where one skier perished. I got the call-out at about 5pm Saturday afternoon.
From what I can tell, two brothers (one from Driggs, one from Steamboat) were ascending the the western slope of Peak 10,028, which is a spur ridge off of Fossil Mountain, from the South Fork of Darby Canyon. One was on a splitboard and the other on telemark gear. As they skinned to the top of the ridge, the slope avalanched, taking the skier (from Steamboat) about 1500-2000 feet down the mountain. The debris came to a stop uphill from the summer trail.
The splitboarder immediately went into search mode and dug out his brother from under 3-4 feet of snow as soon as he could. CPR was initiated until SAR could respond with advance life support (ALS) equipment. Unfortunately it wasn?t enough and he didn?t survive, most likely a victim of trauma. As it got dark, the use of the helicopter was no longer available. Considering the current snow conditions and avalanche danger, the call was made to recover the body in the morning. Rescuers were unable to capture the victim?s dog who was also on the scene, so it stayed with his master through the night.
The body recovery went smooth in the morning using a long-line from the helicopter. Unable to gain the dog?s trust enough to load him in the helicopter, rescuers skied out?and luckily the dog followed, to be reunited with his masters fiance. One upside to hold on to from the past 18 hrs. Condolences go out to all the parties involved and remember to send them some positive vibes the next time you are in your own church.
Please be careful in the backcountry as Spring approaches and the snowpack goes iso-thermal in the warmer temperatures. Getting an early start is key!

Aquasoil v.s seachem flourite
can anyone here give me a quick comparison/opinions/insights between amazonia aquasoil v.s seachem flourite as a fertilized substrate? Which one is better in your' opinion and why? Also, do seachem's line of products "namely the additives, fertilizers, iron etc" compare in terms of quality to anything ada produces? It's less expensive btw so this appeals to me as I'm currently trying to compile a list of competent supplies for my' new eheim aquastyle 9 tank.
you should check out the substrate sticky. theres a thread that tells the pros and cons of most substrate choices.
I would also recommend dry ferts from gla or other vendors on site. it is way cheaper than seachem and really not that hard. for a small tank and cost isn't an issue i would choose aquasoil but do check the substrate sticky.
I've used both, and without a doubt, in no matter what size tank I've tried both in, aquasoil is superior. But that's just my personal opinion. The AS does leach ammonia and lots of nutrients, especially in the beginning, but you can avoid any algae issues with lots of WCs. Also, the AS buffers the pH considerably lower for me, down to 5.5 from 6.8. That's a nice bonus for plant nutrient uptake. As for ferts, seachem is good but expensive, and I would also suggest dry ferts. Dry ferts are just as good, last for years and are less messy (just need a good set of measuring spoons).
Flourish. It's expensive and weak.
You can get the same thing by buying a pound of CSMB for $5 or $6 to make gallons upon gallons upon gallons.
That's one example.
I just want to know how people use their' dry fertilizer, I think I'll want to make my' own solutions in bottles... - another thing I'd like to know is if and or where one would suggest getting the best possible deal on such things... at the end of all this I want a nice array of choices for different applications available to me that'll last at least about a year.
Check out the Fertilizer section here on the forum. Lots of stickies and information about dosing.
The amount of fertilizer you use depends upon your method of dosing, plant load, etc. Estimative Index is one way to dose.
You can buy dry ferts here on the forum, from places like GLA and AquariumFertilizer.com and other retailers.
